Damien Hirst and Cartrain

This is actually funny and weird.....it seems odd that Hirst is even upset, it seems like he would laugh it off.

Damien Hirst loses face over Cartrain's portrait

Could Damien Hirst's feud with teenage street artist Cartrain simply be down to his outrage at being so well caricatured?

Damien Hirst's feud with teenage street artist Cartrain could yet become the most controversial story of Hirst's career. It really is vile for a rich man to use his power to bully someone who, after all, is just trying to emulate him by making art with found materials.

Presumably, what irks Hirst is that Cartrain used Hirst's diamond skull in a series of collaged portraits of the skull's creator. Hirst successfully demanded that all the young artist's works incorporating the diamond skull should be handed over, presumably to be destroyed.
