This phrase also appeared in Gilbert \u0026amp; George’s 2014 performance at the Serpentine’s Extinction Marathon, giving it a direct connection to the development of The Banners. Presented as artistic provocation rather than an environmental campaign message.\u003cbr\u003eArtist: Gilbert \u0026amp; George\u003cbr\u003eHand signed in bottom right\u003cbr\u003eArt exhibition: The Banners, White Cube Bermondsey, 2015–16\u003cbr\u003ePrinting method: colour offset lithography on paper\u003cbr\u003eDimensions: 24.5 in x 35.5 in (60 cm x 90 cm)\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eGilbert \u0026amp; George began working together after meeting at St Martins School of Art in London in 1967. They became known as “living sculptures”, making their shared identity part of their art. Drawing heavily on everyday life in East London, their work tackles sex, religion, prejudice and social rules through bold images and confrontational language. The Banners reduces that approach to handwritten-looking slogans in red and black.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eOriginal exhibition poster from Gilbert \u0026amp; George’s \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cem\u003e\u003cspan\u003eThe Banners\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/em\u003e\u003cspan\u003e, White Cube Bermondsey, 2015–16. The artists’ deliberately provocative slogans explore authority, belief, sexuality and social conventions. Some designs contain strong language or explicit sexual references.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBecause of the age of these posters, there are areas of wear and tear, particularly on the edges. I have done my best to take photos where they are torn or stained. The good news is that when framed, the tears press up well against glass, and edges can be hidden by mats. Any wear picked up from years are part of the vintage charm.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThese posters are sent as unframed.
