The JW Anderson x Gilbert & George Capsule collection, a very special collaboration between JW Anderson and those most anti-establishment establishment figures of British art.

‘For me, Gilbert & George are the ultimate British Modernists and I am obsessed with their work. I really appreciate both the sense of anarchy and order in what Gilbert & George do and in this way it works perfectly with JW Anderson – it’s a marriage of British eccentricities and traditions.’ Jonathan Anderson

 

Fulfilling a long-term wish to celebrate the artists, their view of masculinity and British modern life, Jonathan Anderson chose to concentrate on three key works by the duo and built part of the Spring-Summer ‘19 collection around them. The works featured are Guard Plants (1980), Dog Boy (1980) and Heavy (1988).
