Description

Damien Hirst The Complete Visual Candy Paintings Paperback

The Visual Candy paintings were made between 1992 and 1994.The works showcase the ways in which Damien Hirst used the signifier of candy during the early 1990s exploring questions of pure aesthetics. Hirst says they were created as a direct riposte to an art critic who had dismissed Hirsts Spot Paintings as visual candy. Addressing the viewer on a deliberately emotionaland instinctive level these works abetted by their exuberant titles among them Some Fun 1993 and Dippy Dappy Dabby 1993 set out to question the implication that aesthetically pleasing art is inherently insignificant.While ostensibly abstract the paintings in fact depict medicinal pills and can be seen as a stylised depiction of the psychological effects of happy moodenhancing drugs.
