To mark the opening of Gagosian’s new gallery in Gstaad, Switzerland, Gagosian is pleased to present an exhibition of works by Damien Hirst entitled Myths, Legends and Monsters. Painted over the last fifteen years and never exhibited before, the series of monochromatic oil paintings depicts legendary figures such as Marilyn Monroe, Pablo Escobar, Malcolm X, and Andy Warhol, among others. Blurring the lines of what constitutes an iconic figure, Hirst calls into question modern notions of celebrity and identity.
