Exploring Fame and the Personal in Art

January 31, 2008 2:32 PM

There have been a few husband/wife teams in the art world. Nothing has impressed me as much as the work of Jorge Rodriguez Gerada and Ana Alvarez-Errecalde. Their work stands alone, but complements each other. Check out Ana's video of some of Jorge's work. Or some of her own work (NSFW). Or read an interview and see some of Jorge's work.

Cool post.

Similarly, Alex and Allyson Grey's work both stands alone and complements each other.

Nice post. :) I've long liked this idea of creative partners. It seems quite rare to me!

I really, really, REALLY did not want to see a topless old woman.

Oh, but it's "art".. so that means you're wrong about what you are feeling. ;)


And there needed to be a warning on these photos- not just NSFW.

Revulsion can be an appropriate reaction to artwork. Do you thin Guernica was painted to make people feel happy?
