Two signed Damien Hirst works of art worth £33,000 have been stolen from a gallery.
The pieces were taken from the Exhibitionist Gallery in Notting Hill, west London, in the early hours of Monday.
The stolen works, called Pyronin Y and Oleoylsarcosine, feature multi-coloured dots.
Police believe the artworks were specifically targeted and want witnesses to come forward.
Pyronin Y is the larger of the two. It was produced in 2005 and is worth £15,000.
Oleoylsarcosine was created in 2008 and is worth £18,000.
A Metropolitan Police spokesman said just one person carried out the theft and he may have left in a car.
Det Sgt Jon Lightfoot said: "It appears the suspect has specifically targeted the two pieces.
"The items would have been visible in the back of the car and we are appealing for any witnesses or anyone with information to please come forward."
Hirst was awarded the Turner Prize in 1995.
His more recent works include Verity, a 66ft bronze-plated statue of a pregnant, naked woman wielding a sword, which was unveiled on Ilfracombe harbour in north Devon last October.
