1. 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.
