Following on from my last diatribe, this quote from Damien Hirst (part of a longer profile which I'll fillet when I have more time) was in today's Observer Magazine:
"I had a big dance with conceptual art," he says, "but there are things in art that are a dead end. Conceptual art, abstraction, they're total dead ends. You start thinking, there's enough bloody objects in the world, why are you making more of this shit. If I'm being brutal about it, that's what I'm thinking right now." Suddenly, the empty studio next door makes a whole lot more sense.
Errr . . . . that's Damien Hirst speaking!
