Meaning & Analysis
H4-8 Keukenhof is a signed giclée print produced by contemporary British artist Damien Hirst in 2008. In this print, which comes in an edition size of 75, Hirst creates a composition made out of thick brushstrokes and dabs of heavy impasto. The composition is dominated by hues of blues and reds with hints of white, yellow and green. The layers of paint draw attention to the texture of the artwork and the various stages that must have gone into its composition.
The print is part of Hirst’s Veils collection which was inspired by the concept of a veil. The way in which Hirst uses layers of paint in these compositions can be seen as a series of veils that obscure whatever lies beneath the surface of the composition.
The influence of Impressionism and Abstract Expressionism shine through in the loose and free style of these abstract artworks. The use of spots also resonates strongly with the Pointillist movement which was developed by Georges Seurat and Paul Signanc. Hirst often uses spots in his artworks, notably in his Spot paintings. The scientific precision of the Spot paintings, however, is absent from these works which privilege a more spontaneous approach to creating art.
Damien Hirst, born in Bristol in 1965, is often hailed the enfant terrible of the contemporary art world. His provocative works challenge conventions and his conceptual brilliance spans installations, paintings, and sculptures, often exploring themes of mortality and the human experience. As a leading figure of the Young British Artists (YBA) movement in the late '80s, Hirst's work has dominated the British art scene for decades and has become renowned for being laced with controversy, thus shaping the dialogue of modern art.
