Dynamic duo's horny show

Could this be the end for the Dynamic Duo, Artman? Well, no. Gilbert and George's latest offerings, The New Horny Pictures at White Cube², are unlikely to ruffle any feathers, except, perhaps, at Frinton Golf Club.

Where earlier G&G used naked rent-boys in stained glass to create The First Church Of Christ Urania - Heresy! Blasphemy! - new works have replaced the boys with personal ads: 'Clay: Blond, surfer, GQ looks, well-equipped.' The besuited pair have blown these ads up to monolithic size and replaced the photos of Clay and his chums with pictures of themselves.

It's all faintly sad. If Gilbert and George's earlier work toyed with ideas of sex and death, these latest ones seem to admit to the death of sex. The duo are getting on, after all. Gilbert will be 60 next year: escorts may well be on their minds. So, too, may the fact the days of being (and I quote) 'toned, muscular, masculine, genuinely horny' like Clay and his cohorts are long behind them. Ah, me: all very Death In Venice. Cue the Mahler.
