Quisqualic Acid, 2011
Woodcut
12 x 12 in 30.5 x 30.5 cm
Edition
Edition of 55
Damien Hirst's Quisqualic Acid is a vibrant woodcut from 2011 that exemplifies the artist's celebrated spot painting vocabulary translated into printmaking. Measuring twelve inches square, this work features Hirst's signature arrangement of colored dots rendered through the traditional Japanese woodcut technique. The process involves carving individual blocks for each color, resulting in rich, saturated hues and subtle textural variations that distinguish these prints from their painted counterparts. The precise geometry and rhythmic repetition create an optical intensity characteristic of Hirst's investigation into color, pattern, and systematic composition. This edition represents an accessible entry point for collectors interested in Hirst's iconic spot series, which has been exhibited in major institutions worldwide and remains among his most recognizable contributions to contemporary art. The woodcut medium adds historical depth and tactile quality to his conceptual framework, appealing to print connoisseurs and contemporary art collectors alike.
