The Legacy of Leigh Bowery King of Queer

Hardback219 pagina’sEngelsLeverbaar
Ook verkrijgbaar als
In 1988 Dutch journalist Bamber Delver interviewed Leigh Bowery. By then, Leigh wasn’t world-famous yet but a well-known clubber in the underground-scene of London. Leigh’s fashion career was just as wild as it was short-lived: he died in 1994, 33 years old. Decades after his death, Leigh Bowery’s influence is omnipresent. From Alexander McQueen to Cirque du Soleil, from Lady Gaga to the drag queens of RuPaul. In this book 15 artists around the globe admire his guts, his looks and fashion-philosophy which nowadays is called ‘queer’: no boundaries, no gender, no age, no limited sexuality, no restrictions of the human-form. This book contains the original interview with never published photos. Ann Holt, with whom Leigh travelled to London at 17, shares her memories. Leigh's sister Brownyn tells about her childhood with Leigh. This book is a pure fashion, queer-art book about one of the most original designer-artists ever!
