Telegraph recently sat down with Damien Hirst for an interview about his show “The Blue Paintings” (teased) at The Wallace Collection opening tomorrow. Featuring 25 paintings (all hand done by Hirst), he appears to be opening a new chapter in his career. With style reminiscent of his idol Francis Bacon, the works still include classic Hirst imagery like the shark jaws, butterflies, dots, and skulls. It remains to be seen whether he will be as successful with this artistic change of direction. Check out the video walkthrough above.
