The exhibition, held in a disused building that was currently due for re-development amongst the larger development of Docklands itself, was curated by their fellow student, and later art-superstar and media sensation, Damien Hirst.

 Damien Hirst - the limited-edition artworks to buy at eyestorm - read first
By the time he'd graduated from Goldsmiths College in London in 1989 he'd already organized the exhibition 'Freeze', which is now considered the first major exhibition by the generation of British artists that shot to international fame in the 90s.
Hirst's 1991 solo exhibition at the ICA brought his work to a wider audience, but it was another exhibition the following year that brought him to the general public's attention - via unprecedented coverage in the tabloid press.
For example, the 1988 exhibition he organized, 'Freeze', is now widely regarded as the first expression of a new generation in British art, launching the careers of such artists as Mat Collishaw, Ian Davenport, Anya Gallaccio, Gary Hume, Sarah Lucas and Fiona Rae.

An artist who first came to prominence in the now-notorious 'Freeze' exhibition organized by Damien Hirst in 1988, Anya Gallaccio has taken a parallel road to her young British artist peers: one which involves none of the enfant terrible hype that still resonates around the more public faces of the London artworld.
In 'Freeze', Gallaccio exhibited Waterloo: a floor sculpture made from molten lead that, at first sight, had a formal relationship to works by such celebrated 60s minimalists as Carl Andre and Richard Serra.
This was a logical progression from other works, as instinct had previously led her to drown photographs in water (Broken English) or bleach them in the rays of the sun (tense II), and nor were roses a new material for her.

When Damien Hirst exhibited a dead shark in a glass case filled with formaldehyde at the Saatchi Gallery in 1993, it instantly became an icon for the age.
The tale has often been told of how Hirst's exhibition "Freeze" (shown in an empty warehouse in the East End of London in 1988) introduced Britain to a new generation of Young British Artists.
But what is emphasised less often is that a much more significant group of British artists, all sculptors, came to the boil in the late Eighties and continued to do some of their best work in the Nineties.
