 Telegraph | Arts | Gilbert and George and Gyles
There are differences (Gilbert and George are both queens, for a start), but the phenomenon is similar: two people - whose images we know so well, whose personalities we know so little - who have spent their adult lives going about together in public places so that other people may look at them.
George comes up with most of the gnomic utterances: "We think our pictures form our tomorrows, that the world will be a little bit like our pictures because we made them." Gilbert offers more of the factual information.
George snickers: "They do the wrong kind of sucking." (Despite the genteel manner, George is partial to humour of this kind.) They are both sitting demurely at table, in their trademark tailored suits, similar but not identical.
