The Australian performance artist and style icon Leigh Bowery was “modern art on legs,” his friend Boy George said. A new exhibition, “Outlaws: Fashion Renegades of Leigh Bowery’s 1980s London” opens tomorrow at the city’s Fashion and Textile Museum, while a second show about his influence on figures such as Alexander McQueen, Anohni and Lady Gaga will arrive at the Tate Modern next February. For @BBCNews, Beverly D’Silva looks at his life, art and legacy.
