Money over matter

http://www.showitwithmoney.com/artist_about.html

If you thought the Tate's Pop Life showcased the end of integrity in contemporary art, this has just about put the last nail in the coffin. Damien Hirst has proved he's the master at making obscene amounts of money out of an increasingly pretentious art world, and with this he's just about come up with the perfect con. In my opinion.. I'm certainly not going to be buying into it.

Perhaps it's satire? Is it actually Damien Hirst's latest venture or just a critique of his commercialism?
