Tartalom

A special souvenir catalogue accompanies the exhibition which includes a comprehensive essay by the novelist and cultural critic Michael Bracewell.

Gilbert & George have been creating art together for fifty years, mainly concentrating on the aspects of modern city existence. The art of Gilbert & George are always centered around the artists themselves who appear in them as “Living Sculptures.” With their elegant appearance, they communicate about timeless human phenomena through testing the boundaries of existing taboos and artistic conventions.
