well, you can't, and shouldn't, mandate charity. and we don't know that Damien Hirst doesn't donate a lot of his earnings to worthy causes. also, perhaps the buyer is (obviously) super-rich. just because they spent a lot on a painting doesn't mean they haven't donated a large amount to charity, as well.

the way i read the article, the work was not being sold by the artist but a collector who had paid 730,000 pounds for it previously.
i don't know that the artist received any of the proceeds from yesterday's sale.
i'm just sayin'... |

I told my daughter that I would only pay for her to go to art school if she majored in something where she can get a job (graphic design, illustration, etc.). Maybe I should rethink that and tell her to paint some pills. Or "churn out spin and spot paintings and even spliced animals".
