George Passmore
author · designer
George Passmore is a British artist who, along with Gilbert Prousch, forms the renowned art duo Gilbert & George. Born in Plymouth, George began his artistic career in the late 1960s. The duo's philosophy is that they are two people who act as one artist, sharing a singular creative vision and public persona. Their work is significant in the history of post-war British art, frequently utilizing bold graphic styles, vibrant colors, and a playful yet provocative engagement with cultural symbols and the concept of the artist as a 'living sculpture'.[1,2,3]
