Jack Freak Pictures: Lentos Kunstmuseum | Linz, Austria
Two prominent stars of international art, Gilbert & George, the “Godfathers of British Art”, for the first time in Linz, in Lentos. Gilbert (born 1943) and George (born 1942), artists since 1967, have long since become icons of contemporary art. In 1986 they won the Turner Prize. In 2005 they represented England at the Venice Biennale. With their credo “Art for All” and with the idea of making themselves the subject of their pictures as “living sculptures”, they have expanded the concept of art and sculpture since the sixties.
