Episodes 542 & 543: Leigh Bowery: Phantasmagoric Couturier, an interview with Fiontán Moran, Parts I & II This week we look at the life and genre defying work of Leigh Bowery, who has been “described as a fashion designer, club monster, professional dandy, vaudeville drunkard, pop surrealist, human sculpture, guru without a sect, clown without a circus, piece of moving furniture, modern art on legs, monument of our times…” Tate Modern curator Fiontán Moran joins us for a two-part episode to discuss his co-curated exhibition Leigh Bowery! which is on view now at the Tate Modern in London through August, 31, 2025.
