XTRAVAGANZA staging Leigh Bowery

First things first, something you might want to know: "Who was Leigh Bowery and what was he famous for?"..
He was an Australian performance artist, club promoter, actor, pop star, model and fashion designer, who was living in London.
If you want to know more there's a documentary on YouTube called "The Legend of Leigh Bowery"
The exhibition showed some of his dressed and many, many clips with interviews, music videos and more. They also displayed pictures and some of his accessories. I really liked it, it was really interesting!

Boy George's song "Ich bin Kunst (I am art)" (which I really like!) is a song about Leigh Bowery
Leigh also made some music himself: Raw Sewage - Walk this way (warning: this video shows nudity)
