Congratulations Gilbert Prousch on your 79th birthday! These pictures stem from Gilbert & George's famous performance in 1969 at the Stedelijk. The two men covered their hands and faces with copper-colored paint, and stood at the main staircase for five hours. Visitors could join them on the stairs during the whole performance. #stedelijkmuseum #amsterdam #contemporaryart ​#design #contemporaryartist​ #modernartist #modernartmuseum #contemporaryartmuseum #designmuseum #stedelijk #gilbertandgeorge #gilbertprousch #birthday #bornonthisday #performanceart
