Gilbert & George New Dark Show in Hong Kong

gilbert_and_george_whitecube_hong_kong

White Cube Gallery Hong Kong's inaugural exhibition London Pictures is a disturbing examination of sex, violence, power and death through the medium of Britain's tabloid billboards, collected over six years from newsstands near the artists' home in East London.  For five decades, to international acclaim, Gilbert & George have been making art that is visionary, shocking, relentless, moral and richly atmospheric. London Pictures is on view March 2 to March 5, 2012.
