Damien Hirst: Cherry Blossoms Hardcover – September 7, 2021

Some reviewers have complained about this book being "repetitive" -- it certainly is, if you see page after page of abstract forms of "cherry blossoms" (which this largely is).But if you're looking for a meditation on a subject with an exquisite form at a reasonable price, I just really don't see how you could do better. This book is amazing.Everything here has been done thoughtfully - and the editor/publisher managed not to screw it up. This is unlike many books from Taschen or Phaidon both of whom have let me down recently by destroying art with their publishing habits -- taking a beautiful piece and spanning it across pages instead of putting it in a proper form or etc. There's none of that here. What's more: each print is nearly blank on the back -- some may complain about this -- I'm in love with this choice. The pages separating sections - the text in those intermissions - everything about this book is fantastic. Every mistake lesser publishers make is avoided here, in my view.Just... couldn't be happier. But yes, you must be interested in cherry blossoms or Hirst to enjoy this...

This book is an artwork. Gigantic and beautifully constructed. The images of the paintings are as an art monograph should be, especially like the triple fold outs. In low evening light, the pictures take on the best of the impressionistic technique. Expensive but worth every penny.

This book is amazing! Green textured cover is beautiful and it is a heavy book! Highly recommend this book.

Big and gourgeous!

This book was wrapped in clear plastic and when I finally took the plastic off and skimmed through it there were 4 damaged pages right in the middle of the book. It was completely torn. I'm very disappointed as this was supposed to be a gift and now the return window has closed to get a new one. It wasn't a cheap book either!

I love it! its bigger then I thought it would be and thats amazing, a must have!!!!

Ich habe das Buch endlich nach langem Warten erhalten und leider sind dann Seite beschädigt... schade!

The quality of this book is outstanding, heavy hard back protecting the wonderful printed images and written words within. I'm certainly happy with my first edition.

Assim como as obras originais o livro é uma explosão de beleza. As imagens são em alta qualidade de modo que não duvido que utilizem as reproduções para fazer quadros. Não tenho essa coragem mas que da vontade da …

Amazing book full of colour and life. Lovely quality and big size. A real collectors book.

Livro LINDO e enorme!!! Perfeito
