Pierre Commoy and Gilles Blanchard, also known as Pierre et Gilles, are French artists and romantic partners. They have been producing works together since 1976, creating a world where painting and photography meet. Their art is peopled by their friends and family, anonymous and famous, who appear in sophisticated life-size sets the artists build in their studio. They meticulously apply paint to the photographs once printed on canvas. Accomplished image creators, Pierre and Gilles have built up an extraordinary contemporary iconography on the frontier between art history and popular culture.

Tagging

Pierre et Gilles have a surrealist art style, so tags like surreal, dreamlike, ethereal, vivid colors, vibrant, etc. help. Their photos also have a soft focus so soft focus is helpful. Using portrait of <whatever> also helps. These tags were pruned from the dataset so the model should capture the look by default, but YMMV.

Frames

The model was trained on their framed work as well. Use decorative frame, <type of frame> frame to frame the photo you generate. You can add decorative frame to the negatives if frames begin showing up.
