Gilbert and George are two contemporary artists who work together as a duo. The pair are perhaps best known for their large scale photo works, known as The Pictures. The early work in this style is in black and white, later with hand-painted red and yellow touches. They proceeded to use a range of bolder colours, sometimes backlit, and overlaid with black grids. The artists themselves frequently feature in these works, along with flowers, youths, friends, and Christian symbolism. I have researched this artist because they often use bold colours to highlight things and i thought it would help to highlight the faces of my cubes with the themes i chose, so in an image i would highlight a sign in a bold colour to make it

Gilbert and George are two contemporary artists who work together as a duo. The pair are perhaps best known for their large scale photo works, known as The Pictures. The early work in this style is in black and white, later with hand-painted red and yellow touches. They proceeded to use a range of bolder colours, sometimes backlit, and overlaid with black grids. The artists themselves frequently feature in these works, along with flowers, youths, friends, and Christian symbolism.I have researched this artist because they often use bold colours to highlight things and i thought it would help to highlight the faces of my cubes with the themes i chose, so in an image i would highlight a sign in a bold colour to make it stand out.
