Gilbert & George: 'The art world is full of Left-wingers who want to be millionaires'

From BBC Hardtalk.

Artists Gilbert and George talk about being 'conservatives' and being pro-Margaret Thatcher.

Everyone in London would like to be a millionaire, they'd be able to buy a two bedroom flat.

They are not wrong about left wing snobbery in the art world

Painful to see a BBC reporter trying the same dull gotcha moves he learnt to use in politicians in an interview with esteemed, thoughtful artists. He sounds like an AI robot trying to pin down Picasso about the “meaning “ of his art. Total Fail.

Very self-conscious. It must not be easy for them.
