In the summer of 1991, Damien Hirst's In and Out of Love was shown for the first time in London. The installation launched Hirst's career as one of the most prominent artists of his generation and was coexistent with London’s rise as a global hub for contemporary art. --- ---
Today, the permanent half of that iconic installation, Butterfly Paintings and Ashtrays, is part of the Center’s collection. To mark this milestone, In and Out of Love (Butterfly Paintings and Ashtrays) is shown in its entirety for the first time in many years alongside works of historic, modern, and contemporary art. Among the highlights on show are Henry Fuseli’s tragic Dido, first shown at the Royal Academy in 1781; Anthony Vandyke Copley Fielding’s sublime celebration of nature in A Scene on the Coast, Merionethshire—Storm Passing Off (1818); Angelica Kauffman’s hymn to love in Rinaldo and Armida (1771); and Christopher Le Brun’s poetic meditation on beauty in Kingdom (2015). --- ---
These, and all the works on view in Love, Life, Death, and Desire, address the core themes of Hirst’s own art: love and death; beauty and suffering; permanence and fragility; the symbolic and the real; the relationships between people, places, and things; and the ambiguous boundary between art and life.

Wright painted many versions of this composition, one of his most popular subjects. It represents Silius Italicus, a Roman consul under the Emperor Nero who devoted his later life to the study of literature. His passionate admiration for Vergil led him to buy the poet's estate and tomb at Posillipo, near Naples. Each year he recited Vergil’s poetry inside the tomb on the anniversary of the poet’s death. Wright shows him inside the tomb by candlelight, declaiming Vergil's verses aloud as though trying to raise his spirit.
