Damien Heist For Harley Davidson
From GQ:
Admittedly, it’s not quite a diamond-encrusted skull, but Damien Hirst has turned his hand to designing a one-off Harley Davidson Cross Bones and matching helmet. Hirst’s signature rainbow livery was applied in his main workshop in Briscombe before the bike was disassembled and shipped to Los Angeles, where it will be auctioned at the Creative Arts Agency on 23 April on behalf of Project Angel Food, a charity which provides meals to homebound HIV sufferers. Bidding is expected to start at $100,000 but should end considerably higher if Hirst’s track record is anything to go by.
Well this looks positively awful. Congratulations Heist. I wonder if he even bothered looking at the final product when his team of art slaves finished throwing paint on the bike? I doubt it, as he was probably too busy stuffing wads of cash up his ass to smuggle out to wherever his tax haven is. Yes, the charitable donation is obviously a positive.
