The Art Guys, Giant Art Guys, 1998.
Brandon Zech and Christina Rees on the life and work of The Art Guys, a collaborative duo comprised of Jack Massing and Michael Galbreth.
“I don’t think that everything The Art Guys did was fun and kind and gentle. I think there could be some nihilism and anger behind some of the work, and that’s one of the things that makes it complicated and resonant.”
