Suits
"The Art Guys (Michael Galbreth and Jack Massing) are Houston-based artists who have worked together since 1983. For some years now they have been making art (sculpture, performance, video, and sound) that uses humor as a springboard to address their observations about society. Their new project, Suits, is their most ambitious to date: it uses fashion as a way to explore how art intersects with media, marketing, and commerce.
The Art Guys spent one year wearing two suits designed by Todd Oldham, which were embroidered with 62 advertisements from 56 companies who leased ad space on the surface of their suits. The Art Guys traveled from Alaska to Florida, from New York to Los Angeles, shaking hands, exhibiting artwork, golfing, and kissing babies all along the way."--BOOK JACKET.
