In the eyes of the artist, they re as shocking as a dead animal or a diamond-studded skull - and they say as much about life and death.
Dozens of oil paintings of cherry blossom by Damien Hirst are going on public view for the first time this week, in Paris.
The new exhibition, at the Fondation Cartier, delayed twice because of Covid restrictions, brings together around a third of the 100 canvases painted by Hirst, including during long periods working alone during lockdown, without his team of assistants.

It became a really solitary thing, making art, Hirst told me before the opening. And then trying to find some positivity in all the negativity everyone was feeling. In the beginning I was really anxious, but it s funny that in that anxiety I made these paintings that are really positive.
