They met 40 years ago at art school in London, and have been working together nearly as long. Gilbert and George are “an artist” and a “living sculpture.” A major retrospective of their work is now at Brooklyn Museum for its final stop, after traveling from Tate Modern via several European and American cities. “The artist” came to New York for the installation of the show and was still here on preview day, a walking – living – chatting sculpture.

Gilbert and George, as always impeccably groomed, dressed and behaved, were easy to spot in the front row during an opening speech by Judy Kim, curator of exhibitions at the Brooklyn Museum.
