Gilbert & George were first brought to Australia by John Kaldor in 1973 to present The Singing Sculpture at the Art Gallery of NSW.

Almost four decades on, Gilbert & George, now considered 'old masters' ofcontemporary art, returned to Australia to sign Valentine's Daycards to mark the close of the Art Gallery of New South Walesexhibition '40 years: Kaldor Public Art Projects'.

They dropped by COFA to speak about their visit, their practice, and to give emerging artists some good honest advice. This video contains language that may be offensive to some viewers.

This talk was recorded live at COFA on February 15th, 2010 as part of the free COFA Talks public lecture series.
