White Cube Hong Kong is pleased to present a solo exhibition by Damien Hirst, featuring sculptures from his acclaimed Venice installation, ‘Treasures from the Wreck of the Unbelievable’ (2017), as well as a new series of paintings, ‘Revelations’, made in his London studio.
Showing in Asia for the first time, ‘Treasures from the Wreck of the Unbelievable’ was developed over ten years and from the idea of an archaeological discovery of an ancient shipwreck. Figures in bronze, marble and crystal combine the multifaceted illusionism of Hellenistic sculpture with the whimsical extravagance of Disney. Highlights from the Hong Kong exhibition include the black bronze The Severed Head of Medusa (2008), the large-scale, marble Dead Woman (2016), as well as the never-before-seen black granite Mickey (2018).
