Gilbert Prousch and George Passmore first met as art students in
London in the late 1960s and ever since then they've been
together as a couple and as an artistic duo. From the beginning
they’re own physical presence has been central to their work and
they see themselves as living sculptures. They appear in most of
their work, wearing their distinctive tweed jackets and ties.
Their subject matter is the stuff of daily life in London,
including the stuff other artists would never dream of using
including bodily fluids, faeces and trash. Over the decades
they’ve had work exhibited in many of the world's top modern art
galleries and have sold works for millions of dollars. Now in
London they’ve presented a collection of lockdown era work
entitled New Normal pictures but is there anything normal about
Gilbert and George?
