Damien Hirst's exhibition Schizophrenogenesis is part of the artist's life-long investigation into our relationship with science and the pharmaceutical industry.

As Telegraph art critic Alastair Sooke explains, "I think he's interrogating this great void at the heart of contemporary life about the decline of religion and what have we collectively as a society replaced it with?

"All of these pills, they promise ... a certain amount of salvation, the ability to lose pain."

Included in the exhibition will be ‘The Cure’; a wall of thirty silkscreen prints, each depicting a two-colour pill set against vibrant backgrounds of pop-candy colours.
Also on display will be a series of corresponding sculptural works; fourteen hugely enlarged resin pills, each measuring thirty centimetres long, as well as ten smaller pills, rendered in an array of seductive, immaculate colours.

Schizophrenogenesis is at the Paul Stolper Gallery until November 15. paulstolper.com
