Three versions of a colour advert with sound promoting a Guardian feature on artist Damien Hirst which appeared on 31 August 1996. The adverts show footage of Hirst and his art on a TV screen. The shot zooms out to reveal the TV to be encased in a glass display case in the style of some of Hirst's own artwork. A copy of the Guardian and Weekend Guardian is visible on the TV screen. The advert also features sinister music and voiceover explaining the feature.

Commentary: "Doctor death, the dead cow man, or supremely talanted? Whatever you think, Damien Hirst is the most controvertial living artist. His work sells for tens of thousands of pounds. But his latest creation is absolutely free on the cover of Weekend magazine with the Guardian tomorrow, part of an intimate portrait of his life and work taken from his forthcoming book. So to own a numbered, limited edition Damien Hirst, don't miss the Guardian, tomorrow."

Strapline: 'The Guardian.'
