As the official partners of the upcoming exhibition at London’s Tate Modern, we’re celebrating of the boundary-pushing career of artist Leigh Bowery with an exclusive offer for our readers
The irrepressible spirit, provocation and talent of Leigh Bowery continues to dip its toes into the zeitgeist 30 years after his passing. His extraordinary life left a distinct, undeniable mark on the art world and beyond, and as an artist, performer, model, TV personality, club promoter, fashion designer and musician, Bowery took on many different roles, all the while refusing to be limited by convention. In February, an exhibition at London’s Tate Modern will offer an unprecedented insight into the life and looks of the nightlife marvel, and we are offering our readers an exclusive 2-for-1 ticket offer to see it.
“[Leigh Bowery] stands for a notion of unbridled creativity and experimentation performed largely on himself – done without establishment approval, without commercial backing, without brand ambassadorships, metric measurements and all that clap-trap of our contemporary existence,” wrote Jo-Ann Furniss in the latest issue of Another Man. “Instead, he was a world unto himself, a walking work of art and a catalyst for so many of the people who were close to him or even experienced the sight of him.”
With the new exhibition, the public will be able to immerse themselves in the experience, with the rare chance to see many of Bowery’s looks, alongside his collaborations with artists including Charles Atlas, Nick Knight, John Maybury, Fergus Greer, Nicola Rainbird and Lucian Freud. From his emergence in the nightlife scene of 1980s London, through to his later years as a performance artist and television star, his legacy lives loud and proud – and there’s lots to see.
