George Passmore
Half of the art duo Gilbert & George (pictured at left), their signature style coalesced in large, brightly colored photo montages, often backlit to resemble stained glass and incorporating button-pushing symbols (swastikas, crucifixes, roses, flags) and provocative text ('cock,' 'scum,' 'fucked up'). As self-described 'living sculptures,' they insist they live their whole lives as art; they're prone to rude jokes, are rarely seen dressed in anything but matching suits or apart from one another, and keep slavishly to a peculiar daily schedule.
