Contemporary art is a reflection of the current times and the artists’ perspective on the world. Here are some well-known contemporary artworks that have made an impact on the art world.
One of the most famous contemporary artworks is "The Physical Impossibility of Death in the Mind of Someone Living" by Damien Hirst.

Another famous contemporary artwork is "Untitled" by Cindy Sherman, created in 1980. The artwork is a self-portrait of the artist in various personas, challenging the idea of identity and the role of women in society. The photographs are both humorous and unsettling, leaving the viewer questioning what is real and what is a facade.
Ai Weiwei’s "Sunflower Seeds" is a contemporary artwork that consists of millions of handcrafted porcelain sunflower seeds. Each seed is unique, and when viewed as a whole, they create a powerful image of mass production and individuality. Created in 2010, the artwork comments on the Chinese government’s control over the people and the artist’s desire for freedom of expression.
Banksy’s "Girl with Balloon" is a contemporary artwork that gained worldwide attention when it was shredded at an auction in 2018.
