Damien Hirst - The Cure (2014) - The miracle of modern science

The portfolio of seven prints is by the famous British artist Damien Hirst. He is known and celebrated for his unique style, his rebellious character and his new way of questioning the world through his artwork. The Cure series was published in 2014 in a limited edition of just 15 copies and shows the exceptional artist's fascination with the pharmaceutical industry. For the Cure series, Hirst produced thirty screen prints on Somerset Tub, all of which depict a large, two-tone pill. Each screen print from this series differs in its color combination and is therefore unique and very special.

Throughout the series, Hirst uses bold and bright colors reminiscent of the Pop Art style popularized by Andy Warhol in the 1960s.
