Are we allowed to bring pop art in to the forum, if so what do people think about the latest work by Gilbert and George, at the white cube gallery in London,saints alive they have got the church in a spin. They have very smart designer suits though so that must be a yes for the forum.
George was brought up near Plymouth at a place called Plymstock

A few years ago I went to a preview of Gilbert and Georges work I bumped in to the Pet Shop Boys and Janet Street Porter which was fun, they where all walking around the White Cube Exhibitian centre ,using mobile phones,as I started to photograph them the media also caught them and moved away from Gilbert and George to shoot the other Celebs , so I guess that I was not very popular with G and G.
I found them to be very friendly and aproachable,

So pop, art and style is in, at the New York fashion week,
America can not get enough of British Products, music, and art at the moment, its a good time to realy hit this market. I have sent some work over to a gallery in New York so see what happens.I belive that one of the show studios, family members(nice touch as he calls it) is having an exhibition in Iceland so maby he can give us details here also?

Oh yes please, I love pop! Sebastian, GO NOW to the V & A, The JC Castelbajac exhibition is really cool, Mickey Mouse jackets, Hello KItty dresses etc etc. (Anna Piaggi thing is good also but don't miss this one.)

I like your story about photographing the pet shop boys, very Warhol, no?

What do you thing this Edie Sedgwick film is going to look like? I'm having doubts, they should have got Scarlet Johansen I think...
