Curare, 2011
Woodcut
18 x 18 in 45.7 x 45.7 cm
Damien Hirst's "Curare" is a vibrant woodcut from 2011 that exemplifies the artist's distinctive spot painting motif translated into printmaking. Measuring eighteen inches square, this work features Hirst's signature arrangement of colored circles against a contrasting ground. The woodcut technique lends a tactile quality to the composition, with the carved relief creating subtle variations in ink distribution that distinguish it from his painted counterparts. The geometric precision and bold chromatic palette demonstrate Hirst's continued exploration of systematic color arrangements and pharmaceutical references that have defined his practice. This print represents an accessible entry point for collectors interested in Hirst's internationally recognized visual language. Works from his spot series remain highly sought after across all mediums, and prints like "Curare" offer the conceptual rigor of his larger installations in an intimate format. The piece appeals to both established collectors of contemporary British art and those building a foundation in blue-chip printmaking. Available for purchase — enquire for price and availability.
