Take a Bowery: the art and (larger than) life of Leigh Bowery
Date
2003
Place
Museum of Contemporary Art, Sydney, NSW
Description

Examines the extraordinary and outrageous life of the late Australian-born, London-based performance artist. Working closely with Nicola Bateman Bowery, the widow and executor of the estate of Leigh Bowery, the exhibition examines Bowery’s extraordinary contribution to performance, fashion design and visual culture, including his documentation of Bowery’s landmark Anthony d’Offay Gallery performance. Also includes Lucian Freud’s major painting Leigh Under the Skylight. The first time the work, which extends almost three metres high and shows a full standing frontal pose, is seen in Australia.
