So, despite the rumours, art is not dead… actually, when homeboy Damien Hirst can fetch 198 MILLION!!!! In his last auction, art is living and living large… and in charge. Imagine… he sold THE GOLDEN CALF for ten million pounds… this thing was an animal with 18-carat gold horns and hooves preserved in formaldehyde. Anyways, for those aspiring artists… aspirtists… you don’t need crazy materials like that to make art. Check out JOSHUA ALLEN HARRIS and his inflatable bag monsters that are made from garbage bags, and inflate over subway grates. Art lives not in the materials… but in the imagination. Peep Joshua’s steeze in the YouTube.
