Leigh Bowery: Phantasmagoric Couturier, an interview with Fiontán Moran, Part I

In this week's two-part episode, we explore the work of the "phantasmagoric couturier" Leigh Bowery, who has been described as "artist and art object, a thing to see, to experience." Primarily using dress and his own body as his medium of expression, Bowery's work was equally at home in contemporary art institutions and in the London club scene during the 1980s and 1990s. Tate Modern curator Fiontán Moran joins us this week to speak about the exhibition Leigh Bowery! which is on view now at the Tate through August 31, 2025.
