Hefty Sales For Hirst, But Still No Buyer For £50M Skull

“Damien Hirst, whose London show closed this month without a sale of his diamond skull, has found buyers for 130 million pounds ($265 million) of art at the White Cube galleries, said exhibitions director Tim Marlow. A split shark fetched 10 million pounds, three ‘crucified’ sheep sold for 6 million pounds, and talks to sell the skull were ‘ongoing,’ Marlow said in a telephone interview yesterday.”
