This Penguin Classics edition contains an introduction and notes by William Bynum, and features a cover designed by Damien Hirst.  Written for a general readership, On the Origin of Species sold out on the day of its publication and has remained in print ever since. Instantly and persistently controversial, the concept of natural selection transformed scientific analysis about all life on Earth. Before the Origin of Species, accepted thinking held that life was the static and perfect creation of God. By a single, systematic argument Darwin called this view into question. His ideas have affected public perception of everything from religion to economics.  William Bynum's introduction discusses Darwin's life, the publication and reception of the themes of On the Origin of Species, and the subsequent development of its major themes. The new edition also includes brief biographies of some of the most important scientific thinkers leading up to and surrounding the Origin of Species, suggested further reading, notes and a chronology.   Charles Darwin (1809-82), a Victorian scientist and naturalist, has become one of the most famous figures of science to date. The advent of On the Origin of Species by Means of Natural Selection in 1859 challenged and contradicted all contemporary biological and religious beliefs.  If you enjoyed On the Origin of Species, you might like Darwin's The Descent of Man, also available in Penguin Classics.","brand":"WoB","offers":[{"title":"GB \/ VERY_GOOD \/ INTERNAL","offer_id":49511219069201,"sku":"GOR002352796","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"GB \/ WELL_READ \/ INTERNAL","offer_id":49641539928337,"sku":"GOR005819704","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false},{"title":"GB \/ GOOD \/ INTERNAL","offer_id":49649928601873,"sku":"GOR004555903","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"GB \/ NEW \/ GARDNERS","offer_id":49728088277265,"sku":"NGR9780140439120","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"US \/ WELL_READ \/ SBYB","offer_id":49803401429265,"sku":"CIN0140439129A","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"US \/ GOOD \/ SBYB","offer_id":50056616509713,"sku":"CIN0140439129G","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"GB \/ LIKE_NEW \/ INTERNAL","offer_id":50131129467153,"sku":"GOR008718344","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false},{"title":"US \/ VERY_GOOD \/ SBYB","offer_id":50733497450769,"sku":"CIN0140439129VG","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"US \/ NEW \/ INGRAM","offer_id":50999398760721,"sku":"NIN9780140439120","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"GB \/ NEW \/ INGRAM","offer_id":52330829775121,"sku":"NLS9780140439120","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0784\/4072\/6801\/files\/0140439129.jpg?v=1751388535"},{"product_id":"on-the-way-to-work-book-damien-hirst-9780571202577","title":"On the Way to Work","description":"Immediately recognised for his brilliant, sordid and uncompromising imagination, Damien Hirst is the most celebrated artist Britain has produced for generations. The undisputed leader and originator of the dominant movement in contemporary art on both sides of the Atlantic, he is now so ingrained in the public consciousness that even people with only a passing interest in art are familiar with his notorious shark and pickled sheep. What few people outside his immediate circle know are his brilliance as a talker, and the incisiveness and uniquely skewed nature of his mind. Gordon Burn met Hirst for the first time nine years ago. They both admired David Sylvester's interviews with Francis Bacon and Jan Wenner's interviews with John Lennon, and there was always an unspoken understanding between them that they would do something similar when the time was right. The resulting conversations in Gambler are electrifyingly candid. True to the undertaking Hirst gave Burn, there is no off-limits: here are Hirst's thoughts on celebrity, money, art, alcohol, sex, death, the North of England, class, crime and cocaine; his views on Charles Saatchi, David Bowie, David Hockney, Salman Rushdie, Jarvis Cocker, Gilbert and George and Lucian Freud. More than any other individual, Damien Hirst's art and life came to define the nineties. Like the generation he has become the spokesman for, Gambler is brave, unpredictable, scabrously funny and corrosively intelligent. It is also a how-to guide to becoming the most famous artist in the world.","brand":"WoB","offers":[{"title":"GB \/ VERY_GOOD \/ INTERNAL","offer_id":49532458402065,"sku":"GOR001625662","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"GB \/ GOOD \/ INTERNAL","offer_id":49713370038545,"sku":"GOR001681104","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"US \/ GOOD \/ SBYB","offer_id":50100003602705,"sku":"CIN0571202578G","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"US \/ WELL_READ \/ SBYB","offer_id":50356323352849,"sku":"CIN0571202578A","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false},{"title":"GB \/ WELL_READ \/ INTERNAL","offer_id":50663503003921,"sku":"GOR003416529","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"GB \/ LIKE_NEW \/ INTERNAL","offer_id":51776757235985,"sku":"GOR006331715","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false},{"title":"GB \/ NEW \/ INGRAM","offer_id":52147051987217,"sku":"NLS9780571202577","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0784\/4072\/6801\/files\/0571202578.jpg?v=1750847107"},{"product_id":"damien-hirst-abc-book-book-damien-hirst-9781906967635","title":"Damien Hirst: ABC Book","description":"The alphabet, fantastically illustrated by the philosophical work of Damien Hirst  From A is for Anatomy to Z is for Zebra, discover British artist Damien Hirst's painting, sculpture, and much more on every page of this fantastically illustrated alphabet book.

Emerging in the 1990s as a leading member of the Young British Artists (YBAs), Hirst first became famous and gained a reputation as a provocateur with a series of artworks featuring dead and sometimes dissected animals (including a shark, sheep, and cow) preserved in glass tanks filled with formaldehyde.  Gathered from interviews and other primary sources and organized by subject, these quotations explore Hirst’s early years, family life, and the beginnings of his fascination with art; the major themes of his work; his influences and heroes; his motivation; his process and the boundary-pushing production of his work; and his thoughts on the art world, fame, and money. The result is a comprehensive and nuanced book that sheds new light on a fascinating and important contemporary artist.  Select quotations from the book:     “The less I feel like an artist, the better I feel.” “I like it when people love my art. I like it when people hate my art. I just don’t want them to ignore my art.” “Painting’s like the most fabulous illusion, because there’s nothing at stake. Except yourself.” “I’m interested in the confusion between art and life, I like it when the world gets in the way.” “Sometimes you have to step over the edge to know where it is.”","brand":"WoB","offers":[{"title":"GB \/ VERY_GOOD \/ INTERNAL","offer_id":49577051390225,"sku":"GOR013759428","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false},{"title":"GB \/ NEW \/ GARDNERS","offer_id":49742192378129,"sku":"NGR9780691239859","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"US \/ NEW \/ INGRAM","offer_id":51005807329553,"sku":"NIN9780691239859","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false},{"title":"US \/ GOOD \/ SBYB","offer_id":51879519355153,"sku":"CIN0691239851G","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0784\/4072\/6801\/files\/0691239851.jpg?v=1751041681"},{"product_id":"damien-hirst-requiem-ii-limited-book-damien-hirst-9781906967062","title":"Damien Hirst: Requiem II, Limited","description":"Requiem II details all the previously unseen skull paintings from the Requiem exhibition at the Pinchuk Art Center, Kiev, Ukraine, in April 2009.

The 150 works in the series are made up of iridescent butterfly wings and paint on canvas, which combine to form kaleidoscopic patterns reminiscent of Gothic stained glass windows. Dating from 2008, the paintings address some of Hirst's most enduring and important themes: beauty, art, belief, life and death. Each of the fully illustrated paintings is accompanied by the Old Testament prayer from which its title is derived, the text rendered on images of individually selected marble samples. Also included is a complete list of works, and essays by art writers Michael Bracewell and Amie Corry. In his essay, Bracewell writes: \"The Psalm paintings can't help but bring together, in literal form, such fundamental concepts as beauty, and power over death through prayer and belief, while simultaneously seeming to propose solely their own—albeit spectacular—abstraction. As they take their place within the greater canon of Hirst's art, these paintings extend his fascination with natural history and the potentially synonymous relationships between life, death, art and 'beauty,' and the language of Christian faith and religion.\" The Complete Psalm Paintings is an exquisite companion to one of Hirst's most beautiful series.Damien Hirst was born in Bristol in 1965. He first came to public attention in 1988 when he conceived and curated Freeze, an exhibition of his own work and that of his contemporaries staged in an abandoned London warehouse. Since then Hirst has become widely recognized as one of the most influential artists of his generation. Alongside over 80 solo exhibitions, he has worked on numerous curatorial projects. In 2008, Hirst took the unprecedented step of bypassing gallery involvement by selling 244 new works at a Sotheby's, London auction. He was awarded the Turner Prize in 1995 and received a major solo retrospective at Tate Modern, London. He lives in Devon, England.","brand":"WoB","offers":[{"title":"GB \/ NEW \/ GARDNERS","offer_id":49737792618769,"sku":"NGR9781906967680","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false},{"title":"US \/ NEW \/ INGRAM","offer_id":51058011242769,"sku":"NIN9781906967680","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false},{"title":"GB \/ NEW \/ INGRAM","offer_id":52126620680465,"sku":"NLS9781906967680","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0784\/4072\/6801\/files\/1906967687.jpg?v=1751186860"},{"product_id":"damien-hirst-cherry-blossoms-french-edition-book-damien-hirst-9782869251588","title":"Damien Hirst: Cherry Blossoms (French Edition)","description":"\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eIncandescent and celebratory paintings of cherry blossoms from Damien Hirst, in a glorious oversize volume with 18 gatefold spreads\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eWith 107 works, \u003ci\u003eCherry Blossoms\u003c\/i\u003e marks a new chapter in Damien Hirst's career-long exploration of the physical relationship between artist and canvas that began with his \u003ci\u003eSpot Paintings\u003c\/i\u003e in 1986.

An unparalleled and controversial celebrity of the contemporary art world, Hirst’s work is perfectly suited to be displayed in relation to the colors and materials found in the Galleria Borghese. His sculptures, made of fine materials such as bronze, Carrara marble or seductive malachite, have been put on display in rooms of the museum that house masterpieces of the modern era such as the statuary groups of Gian Lorenzo Bernini and Antonio Canova’s Paolina Borghese. The resulting effect is one of surprising harmony: the Five Grecian Nudes appear natural next to Canova’s sculpture and the primitive appearance of the Lion Women of Asit Mayor is in perfect chromatic accord with the floors of the Galleria. Hirst’s new series of Colour Space paintings offers the same sense of continuity as the flow of the works hanging in the museum’s picture gallery. This comprehensive vision of the past and the present is fostered by the proximity of antique painting and contemporary painting, without frames to separate them, and without elements of signage to interrupt this immersion.","brand":"WoB","offers":[{"title":"GB \/ NEW \/ GARDNERS","offer_id":49742627242257,"sku":"NGR9788829710461","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false},{"title":"US \/ NEW \/ INGRAM","offer_id":51066032095505,"sku":"NIN9788829710461","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false},{"title":"GB \/ NEW \/ INGRAM","offer_id":52140982370577,"sku":"NLS9788829710461","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0784\/4072\/6801\/files\/8829710466.jpg?v=1750905009"},{"product_id":"damien-hirst-for-the-love-of-god-the-making-of-the-diamond-skull-book-damien-hirst-9781904212201","title":"Damien Hirst: For the Love of God, The Making of The Diamond Skull","description":"This book is a creative guide to the making of arguably the most extraordinary art object to be made in the 21st century.

As Julia Peyton-Jones puts it in the Director's Foreword to this beautifully produced catalogue, \"Damien Hirst's groundbreaking and controversial work has made him one of the world's best-known living artists. From the start of his career, Hirst adopted the role of curator, organising a series of exhibitions with a group of young artists who would come to define cutting-edge art in the 1990s.\" Hirst has continually bought and collected works by artists who have inspired and influenced him, such as Francis Bacon, Andy Warhol and Richard Prince, by artists from his own generation such as Sarah Lucas, Angus Fairhurst and Marcus Harvey, and by those at the early stages of their careers such as Rachel Howard, Nicholas Lumb and Tom Ormond. Accompanying the 75 excellent full-color plates of works by the 24 artists exhibited in the show is a humorous but poignant essay by artist and writer Harland Miller reflecting on the idea of collecting from childhood, how obsessive it is, and what a collection is to a collector and to those who see a collection. But it is the interview between Hirst and Hans Ulrich Obrist that gives a direct insight into the motivation and reason behind the murderme collection, and how it relates to Hirst the artist and Hirst the curator. Completed over three months during the summer of 2006, this interview discusses everything from his most famous works, his drawings, influences, practice and attitude towards art, to new projects such as Toddington Manor and the Newport Street Gallery. In many respects 'In the darkest hour there may be light' is perhaps the most comprehensive and intriguing project Hirst has done yet: \"Collecting is the way the world works, as a human being. As you go through life, you just collect ... I always think collections are like a map of a man's life.\"","brand":"WoB","offers":[{"title":"- \/ - \/ -","offer_id":51054342537489,"sku":"","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"US \/ NEW \/ INGRAM","offer_id":51054345421073,"sku":"NIN9781905190119","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false},{"title":"GB \/ NEW \/ GARDNERS","offer_id":51514989642001,"sku":"NGR9781905190119","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false},{"title":"GB \/ NEW \/ INGRAM","offer_id":52147280707857,"sku":"NLS9781905190119","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0784\/4072\/6801\/files\/1905190115.jpg?v=1750964213"},{"product_id":"damien-hirst-the-complete-medicine-cabinets-book-damien-hirst-9781906967369","title":"Damien Hirst: The Complete Medicine Cabinets","description":"Published on the occasion of Damien Hirst's exhibition at L\u0026amp;M Gallery, New York, October 2010, the first ever medicine cabinets book is contextualised by the artist's following of the punk movement. The first twelve sculptures in the book are named after the title tracks on the Sex Pistols' Never Mind the Bollocks album. The front page newspaper spreads punctuating the book from the album's release year (1977) and the year of the cabinets' completion (1989) provide a context for reading James Frey's story poem, Fuck This and Fuck That, which describes the listless protest of a teenage waster. The song titles and cabinet names - No Feelings, Liar and Seventeen - resound with the frustrations of Thatcherite Britain and the violence borne out in daily uprest and anarchy, as depicted in the news: IRA MEN HELD IN BIG SWOOP; RIOT SHIELDS OUT AGAIN and DOCKS JOBS-FOR-LIFE TO BE AXED BY AUTUMN. Hirst's medicine cabinets have long been described as temples of medicinal hierarchies providing nothing more than a short-term cure in the face of death. Viewing the pervasive successes and exploitations of the pharmaceutical industry as a belief system in itself is evidence of our dependency and a form of escapism. Hirst has commented: 'I've always seen medicine cabinets as bodies, but also like a cityscape or civilization, with some sort of hierarchy within it. It's also like a contemporary museum of the Middle Ages. In a hundred years' time this will look like an old apothecary. A museum of something that's around today.'The publication features a radio broadcast interview between Damien Hirst and Steve Jones, the Sex Pistols' guitarist, covering music, girls, money, drugs, drinks and smokes. Thebook's index lists every medicine cabinet ever made and the exhibition itself will include original Sex Pistols memorabilia including album sleeves and t-shirts.","brand":"WoB","offers":[{"title":"- \/ - \/ -","offer_id":51057965957393,"sku":"","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"US \/ NEW \/ INGRAM","offer_id":51057968644369,"sku":"NIN9781906967369","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false},{"title":"GB \/ NEW \/ INGRAM","offer_id":52134832111889,"sku":"NLS9781906967369","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0784\/4072\/6801\/files\/1906967369.jpg?v=1750867562"},{"product_id":"damien-hirst-freedom-not-genius-book-damien-hirst-9781906967567","title":"Damien Hirst: Freedom Not Genius","description":"Hirst began his collection in the late 1980s by exchanging his own works with those of his contemporaries and artist friends.

Another essay by Mario Codognato (writer, and curator at Blain|Southern) explores Hirst's dual role as artist\/collector, and analyses his considerable influence, both on his contemporaries and on younger artists whose work is still developing.

Hirst says they were created as a direct riposte to an art critic who had dismissed Hirst's Spot Paintings as \"just visual candy.' Addressing the viewer on a deliberately emotionaland instinctive level, these works, abetted by their exuberant titles, among them Some Fun (1993) and Dippy Dappy Dabby (1993), set out to question the implication that aesthetically pleasing art is inherently insignificant.While ostensibly abstract, the paintings in fact depict medicinal pills, and can be seen as a stylised depiction of the psychological effects of happy, mood-enhancing drugs. Hirst once described how, \"in every painting there is a subliminal sense of unease… the colours project so much joy it's hard to feel it, but it's there. The horror underlying everything,\" In this context, the Visual Candy paintings, despite their surface optimism, posses a disquieting undercurrent of tension and darkness - born from an awareness of the inevitable low that follows any high.

The paintings in each series are both mechanical and naturalistic, by which Hirst explores the possibility of ‘a person trying to paint like a machine’.   Beautifully designed and featuring almost 200 full-colour reproductions of the 144 artworks, in both their entirety and their detail, the book is published with an essay by British writer and critic Jonathan Griffin, in which he compares these series to the work of Agnes Martin, Louise Bourgeois and Robert Ryman.","brand":"WoB","offers":[{"title":"US \/ NEW \/ INGRAM","offer_id":51058419990801,"sku":"NIN9781912122752","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false},{"title":"GB \/ NEW \/ GARDNERS","offer_id":51216191062289,"sku":"NGR9781912122752","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0784\/4072\/6801\/files\/1912122758.jpg?v=1750867603"},{"product_id":"damien-hirst-the-currencies-vol-i-book-damien-hirst-9781912122615","title":"Damien Hirst The Currencies Vol I","description":null,"brand":"WoB","offers":[{"title":"GB \/ GOOD \/ INTERNAL","offer_id":51075039887633,"sku":"GOR014170056","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false},{"title":"GB \/ VERY_GOOD \/ INTERNAL","offer_id":51115032871185,"sku":"GOR014179061","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0784\/4072\/6801\/files\/1912122618.jpg?v=1750900646"},{"product_id":"damien-hirst-cherry-blossoms-book-damien-hirst-9782869251595","title":"Damien Hirst: Cherry Blossoms","description":"\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eDamien Hirst's new series of paintings, published here for the very first time to accompany their exhibition at the Fondation Carter pour l'art contemporain, Paris.\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e \u003cbr\u003e In Spring 2021 the Fondation Cartier pour l'art contemporain will open an exhibition dedicated to Damien Hirst and his latest painting series, Cherry Blossoms.

Painting has always been an important part of Hirst's oeuvre, but unlike the spot paintings and photorealist series which were made using a collaborative studio process, this body of work is altogether more personal: painted from life, by Hirst in his Devon studio.The paintings, often intimate in size, could be seen as traditional still lifes, depicting an array of carefully arranged elements, both natural and inanimate, sometimes memento mori, alongside objects and formal devices that have made their appearance in Hirst's sculptures and installations before. Exquisitely coloured birds on display stands or in simple glass boxes, butterflies, fruit and cherry blossom at the peak of its beauty, intimate the pure joy of spring's transition into summer but also the temporal significance of this natural phenomenon.Next to these bucolic objects, more sinister symbols take their place: oversized scissors, a shark's gaping jawbone, bell jars and even several lonely single or conjoined foetuses floating in jars, elements that are displaced from the laboratory table rather than the domestic one. Some objects are painted with clarity and impasto; others appear hazy and faint, as if they are somehow more insubstantial, part of a sudden apparition or dream-like vision.","brand":"WoB","offers":[{"title":"- \/ - \/ -","offer_id":51514986299665,"sku":"","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"GB \/ NEW \/ GARDNERS","offer_id":51514986791185,"sku":"NGR9781906967598","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false},{"title":"GB \/ NEW \/ INGRAM","offer_id":52126997971217,"sku":"NLS9781906967598","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0784\/4072\/6801\/files\/1906967598.jpg?v=1750835045"},{"product_id":"damien-hirst-the-civilisation-paintings-book-damien-hirst-9781911736059","title":"Damien Hirst: The Civilisation Paintings","description":"The Civilisation Paintings is a striking catalogue published to accompany the eponymous exhibition at Phillips, London.

The series represents a progressive exploration of Hirst’s iconic butterfly motif, a symbol he has long associated with themes of transformation, life and death.   The introductory essay discusses the historical use of butterflies in art and their significance in Hirst’s oeuvre, while also delving into how the Loves Moods paintings reflect on the art of loving, solitude and relationships.","brand":"WoB","offers":[{"title":"- \/ - \/ -","offer_id":51621950914833,"sku":"","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"GB \/ NEW \/ GARDNERS","offer_id":51621950947601,"sku":"NGR9781911736158","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"US \/ NEW \/ INGRAM","offer_id":53116428026129,"sku":"NIN9781911736158","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0784\/4072\/6801\/files\/1911736159.jpg?v=1768561033"},{"product_id":"treasures-from-the-wreck-of-the-unbelievable-book-damien-hirst-9781906967888","title":"Treasures from the Wreck of the Unbelievable","description":"This exquisite hardback book with leather-ribbed spine presents the second volume of a series of Damien Hirst's drawings on paper, rendered in a range of mediums including silverpoint, charcoal and ink.

Seen here for the first time, Hirst's portraits were sketched during the pair's regular breakfast meetings at the famous Wolseley restaurant in London between 2004 and 2010.

With the Black Scalpel Cityscapes, Hirst investigates subjects pertaining to the sometimes-disquieting realities of modern life--surveillance, urbanization, globalization and the virtual nature of conflict--as well as those relating to the human condition in general, such as our inability to arrest physical decay. Described by the artist as portraits of living cities, the series is illustrated in full and accompanied by a comprehensive list of artwork details in this signed limited edition, which features a black zipper down the spine. The volume also includes an essay by Jerry Brotton, author of A History of the World in Twelve Maps, and a fictional short story by novelist and arts writer Michael Bracewell.","brand":"WoB","offers":[{"title":"GB \/ NEW \/ INGRAM","offer_id":52140792709393,"sku":"NLS9781906967727","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0784\/4072\/6801\/files\/9781906967727.jpg?v=1757575645"},{"product_id":"damien-hirst-dark-trees-book-damien-hirst-9781906967277","title":"Damien Hirst: Dark Trees","description":"Published on the occasion of the exhibition Dark Trees, at Hilario Galguera, April 2010, this catalogue features a number of previously unseen Blue Paintings from Hirst's 2006-2008 series.
