FAQ
Is this an original work by Damien Hirst? Yes. This fragment is cut directly from an original spin painting created by Damien Hirst in April 2009 at the Pinchuk Art Centre in Kiev, during the exhibition Requiem — a work executed with the direct personal involvement of the artist. Each fragment is individually numbered and bears the Hirst embossed logo, and is accompanied by a certificate of authenticity.
What is fractionalized ownership? Fractionalized ownership is a concept in which an original artwork is divided into individual fragments, each of which is offered as an autonomous, collectible work in its own right. Each fragment is a physically unique piece of the original work — not a reproduction, not a print, but an actual cut piece of the original painting.
What are the dimensions of the piece? Each fragment is 54 mm in diameter, mounted on artboard.
What is the edition size? This project comprises 109 individual fragments, each unique in its specific configuration of spots and colors.
Is the work framed? An optional framed version, ready to hang, is available and is the most popular choice among our collectors.
Does the work come with documentation? Yes. Each fragment is presented in a dedicated presentation box and accompanied by a certificate of authenticity confirming its provenance and authenticity.
What is the provenance of the original painting? The original spin painting was created in April 2009 at the Pinchuk Art Centre in Kiev, Ukraine, during the Damien Hirst exhibition Requiem — with the direct personal involvement of the artist. Works from this series occasionally appear at auction at Sotheby's and Christie's.
What is the condition of the work? Excellent condition. Full condition report available upon request.
What makes this work a compelling investment? Artworks from previous fractionalized projects in this series — including the Severed Skulls campaign of 2022 — have already begun appearing on the secondary market at prices significantly exceeding their original purchase price, in some cases reaching well over USD 1,000. The combination of direct provenance from an original Hirst work, the exceptional context of creation at the Pinchuk Art Centre, and the growing collector demand for fractionalized Hirst material makes this fragment a compelling and accessible entry point into the world of original Damien Hirst.
