Book excerpt: The largest group of pictures created by Gilbert & George, the 'LONDON PICTURES' offers both a directory of urban human behaviour and a moral portrait of our times. Brutal and declamatory, these brooding and disquieting pictures have been created from the sorting and classification by subject of 3,712 newspaper posters, stolen by Gilbert & George over a number of years. In their lucidity, no less than their insight into the daily realities of metropolitan life, the 'LONDON PICTURES, are Dickensian in scope and ultra-modern in sensibility. More than a decade since they were first unveiled on a global tour, the Centre presents 28 of the 292 pictures from the 'LONDON PICTURES' group - many of which have not been seen in the UK previously. Viewing these 'LONDON PICTURES' in 2024 will prompt viewers to consider how society has changed and what has remained central to our shared experience...

Book excerpt: The Beard Pictures' are violent, eerie, grotesque, lurid and crazed. They show a dream-like world of paranoia and destruction and madness. Their strange sickly colours and creeping, smashed up, absurd landscapes confront the viewer with relentless aggression. 'The Beard Pictures' depict a world bereft of reason, in which negotiation no longer exists. Gilbert & George take their place within 'The Beard Pictures' as intense, red, staring, empty-headed, and sinister versions of themselves. Their eyes are shadowed and bizarrely prettified. Mutant, impish explorers or dead-headed sentinels, they seem to look at, into and through the viewer. They look as though their spirits might have left their bodies. 00Exhibition: White Cube Bermondsey, London, UK (22.11.2017-28.01.2018).

Download or read book Introducing Gilbert George written by Robert Rosenblum and published by Thames & Hudson. This book was released on 2004 with total page 176 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Gilbert & George's art is for everyone - in their own words, an 'art for all'. Their sculptures, photographic works, drawings and photographic pieces address fundamental human issues and concerns: sex, death, violence, religion, alcoholism, fear and racial tension. Humorous and subversive, amusing and shocking, they are in the tradition of England's finest socially engaged artists. In this guide, eminent art historian, critic and close friend of the artists Robert Rosenblum looks back at their entire career since they met at St Martin's School of Art in 1967 and started working together. Some of their most important works, from the Singing Sculptures of the late 1960s to their very latest large, colourful, multipanel pictures, are here to illustrate Rosenblum's lively and perceptive text, while quotes from the artists provide a fascinating insight into their lives, works and personalities. Introducing Gilbert & George is the perfect introduction to two of the most important and popular living artists in the world today.

Book excerpt: 'Man is least himself when he talks in his own person. Give him a mask, and he will tell you the truth' --Oscar Wilde (1891)For nearly five decades the art of Gilbert & George has created a visceral and epic depiction of modern urban existence. At its centre are always the artists themselves, who have dedicated their adult lives to their calling as 'Living Sculptures' - witness participants within the moral and vividly atmospheric world of their vision, as it is revealed in their art.

Book excerpt: Since meeting as students in the late summer of 1967, Gilbert & George have been travelling together on a visionary and moral journey that they liken to John Bunyan?s The Pilgrim?s Progress. Their journey is made on foot, along the endless streets of London; occasionally by bus to the city?s eastern edges. It encompasses new-build developments on reclaimed and reworked land; excursions into a not-too-distant future, as disquietingly mild as it is lowering.00Gilbert & George?s NEW NORMAL PICTURES have the air, also, of temperate yet strangely intense days. In fact, the stages on a journey they seem to recount have a ?post-everything? air; as though they have just crossed through a fissure in time to a place that is almost but not quite familiar ? a place that looks normal but is not normal, is skewed, perhaps abandoned.00Exhibition: White Cube Mason's Yard, London, UK (02.03. ? 08.05.2021).
Download or read book Mirrorcity written by Chloe Aridjis and published by . This book was released on 2014-07-23 with total page 64 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: To accompany the Hayward Gallery exhibition of the same name, Booker Prize nominated writer Tom McCarthy edits a unique newspaper about the realities (and unrealities) of London. Patrick Kieller claimed in his 1994 film London that the city had disappeared, lost amongst the sprawling generations of its inhabitants.The city's consciousness has dissipated, its identity vanishing before our eyes. Just as the role of the print newspaper edges closer to the void, McCarthy seeks to explore the current, 'felt' realities of a place in a form that is on the verge of obsolescence.Going beyond the concept of definite roles and functions MIRRORCITY explores and celebrates the themes of reality, identity and the singular dimensions we all live in.A host of artists including Lindsay Seers, Ursula Mayer and Lucky PDF have contributed their texts and images on these themes within the context of the newspaper format - the results are as diverse and open-ended as the city. Contains a full-colour 'weekend style' newspaper magazine insert booklet.A unique conceptual and cerebral artist-led publication, MIRRORCITY will delight, intrigue and engage the intellectual. To accompany an exhibition at the Hayward Gallery, London, 14 October 2014 - 4 January 2015.
