They themselves are the subject of their art: Gilbert and George, two persons belonging to "an" Artists have merged, sees himself as a "Living Sculpture". After studying the two joined in 1968 in London, where they still live and work. The homosexual couple wants the / her art is not about life, but it reflects. The artist may be different from his art is not exempt, is part of her and why are they always present their work. To be aware is exemplary and without false shame, sexuality, emotions, (physical) needs - just their lives - represented. It is the intention of the beholder provocation, he is also himself and his feelings again, which just does not bow to verpönt issue. Although she herself and her work as sculpture see, they work only in two dimensions by using their images from panels, such as in a memory game are, composed. They are a sort of photo collage in which the two protagonists repeatedly appear - always together, sometimes naked, sometimes for them in their gray suits so typical, sometimes enlarged Penisse or their tongues - often combined with floral patterns or other decorative elements. The huge size makes abundantly motives, sometimes pithy coloured photographs and how they are dyed in bright colors. © ArtLogistics
