The Worst of Hirst: Rembrandt
“Anyone can be like Rembrandt,” he told The Guardian. “I don’t think a painter like Rembrandt is a genius. It’s about freedom and guts. It’s about looking. It can be learnt. That’s the great thing about art. Anybody can do it if you just believe. With practice you can make great paintings.”
Damien Hirst, quoted in ‘Damien Hirst claims anyone could paint like Rembrandt’, The Telegraph, 14 November 2009
AW: Quite a lot of practice in your case, Damo.
