Hi
I love visiting art galleries, and I'm very open-minded about modern art, but Damien Hirst's new exhibit at the Royal Academy is one which I don't want to see. :shock: :shock:

Damien Hirst is now estimated to have made £215 million from his art, but I won't be contributing a single penny to his fortune.
What do you think about it :?:
Joan
