Singing Sculpture
By Gilbert and George
Gilbert and George, the British art duo composed of Gilbert Proesch and George Passmore, are known for their bold and provocative approach to contemporary art. Since meeting in the 1960s at the St. Martin’s School of Art in London, they have worked collaboratively, creating works that challenge social, political, and cultural norms. Their art often incorporates photographs, large-scale installations, and vibrant, graphic imagery that explores themes such as identity, sexuality, religion, and the human condition. Known for presenting themselves as living sculptures, Gilbert and George have consistently used their own bodies as subjects in their art, presenting highly stylized self-portraits that blur the line between art and performance.
