Dubbed \u201cThe Beautiful Paintings,\u201d <\/em>Hirst has incorporated a generative algorithm and machine learning to come up with his unique new technicolor designs.<\/p>\n To bring the project to life, Hirst has partnered with next-generation art platform HENI<\/a>.

Inspired by \u201cAbstract Expressionism\u201d<\/em> and driven by the desire to devise a machine to make art, Hirst poured pigments onto canvases as they spun, which allowed \u201cthe machine to facilitate chance movements and color interactions.\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n The results are beautiful masterpieces that collectors have the opportunity to design for themselves via the \u201cThe Beautiful Paintings\u201d <\/em>dashboard on HENI. Then they can \u201cchoose their own combination of colours, styles, shapes, sizes, and mediums to generate artworks and titles.\u201d <\/em>The final output will be unique and feature an element of randomness.<\/p>\n There are a total of 25 different artwork styles that collectors can choose from to design their art pieces. If a collector likes what they have created, they can proceed to buy it as a physical or digital (NFT) artwork.<\/a><\/p>\n Minting\/generating the art pieces began on March 31 and ends on April 10. The physical pieces will be printed on canvas and stretched on a frame, and they will bear the signature of Hirst. As for the price, the NFTs go for $2,000 and the physical optionfor $1,500 to $6,000 depending on their size.<\/p>\n The artist is excited by his latest project and what it could mean for the future. In a tweet, he notes, \u201cWho knows where all this will lead but I\u2019m so blown away by what I\u2019ve created using all this tech to push the boundaries & create these beautiful artworks.\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n Hirst is a well-respected artist who has dominated the UK art scene since the 1990s. Today, he is reportedly the richest living artist in the UK, with a net worth of over $380 million. This isn\u2019t his first foray into the digital art space. Back in July 2021, he launched his first NFT related project, dubbed <\/a>\u201cCurrency,\u201d <\/em>which aimed to explore themes of \u201cmonetary worth and value.\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n Try out HENI\u2019s spin painting generator >> Here<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n Want more?
