The Murder of Damien Hirst (As told to Charlie Finch) By Charlie Finch

hydeordie:

My name is Antsy Milliken. I’m an artist here in Britain. I studied at Goldsmith’s, worked behind the desk at Serpentine, helped Banksy spraying on the street a bit. I’ve been searching around for a way to produce some art that will get attention; it’s so hard nowadays with the diamond skulls and the balloon dogs and all the sex and money… but I’ve come up with the perfect artwork that combines process, message and the press, everything I learned at art school. I’ve decided to murder Damien Hirst.

It is taking all of my self control not to post the entire story.  It’s brief and hilarious and as with all of Charlie Finch’s work, very worth the read.

It’s got it’s own logic which is scarily hard to deny.
