Leigh Bowery! Tate Modern Unveils a Bold Tribute to the Iconic Performer
Tate Modern’s latest exhibition, Leigh Bowery! chronicles the late performer’s artistic practice in 80s and 90s London, and brings to the fore Bowery’s undeniable influence on pop culture as we know it today. “As an artist, he embodies much of what Tate Modern exists for, really; performance, reinvention, experimentation — in short, reimagining ways of seeing the world,” said Karin Hindsbo, Director of Tate Modern, as we embarked on a tour of the curated space.
