GILBERT & GEORGE ART EXHIBITION

Based in London, Gilbert & George have spent more than half a century pursuing their ideal of “Art for All.” This exhibition traces the evolution of their artistic practice, from documentation of their iconic Living Sculpture, The Singing Sculpture (1969)—in which the artists, covered in multi-colour metallic powder, stood atop a table singing and moving to a popular music-hall song—to their later large-scale picture groups, addressing themes such as religion, sexuality and urban life. Rare photographs and archival footage documenting the artists’ visits to Japan during the 1970s are also on view.

Marking both their first major exhibition in Japan in 30 years and the 60th anniversary of their meeting in 1967, this landmark exhibition offers a rare opportunity to experience the extraordinary range of Gilbert & George’s singular, sincere and uncompromising vision of art.
