The Bowery gallery presents ‘Fabulous & Impossible – The Cult of Leigh Bowery’, an exhibition featuring the visual art of Sydney-based queer artist and multidisciplinary pistol-whip Tom Christophersen.
Featuring a collection of new and pre-existing works, Christophersen’s beautifully camp and subtly strange portraiture and video work celebrates the impact of queer visionaries, especially Bowery, on his contemporary arts practice.
Parallels of persona and character, performance art and the ultimate subversion of popular culture through a queer lens echo through this glamorous and twisted body of mixed media works on paper, incorporating both drawing and painting.
‘Fabulous & Impossible – The Cult of Leigh Bowery’ is for lovers of meticulously made things which glory in the uncomfortable and underground, the shock of the spectacle, and the delicious way the queer community creates art on their own terms from their own lived experiences.
I’m thrilled to be able to announce that my portrait ‘Lensed’ has won the People’s Choice Award at the 2021 Bluethumb Art Prize, Australia’s largest Art Prize!

‘Dark art provides both artists and viewers an opportunity to explore themes that many of us find uncomfortable: fear, isolation, anxiety, and vulnerability. Certainly the past year has made it clear how universal some of these themes are, but all of these are part of the human experience generally…
Opening reception: Saturday, July 10th, 6pm – 9pm.
This exhibition will run from July 11th to August 1st and will coincide with Nom Kinnear King’s show, Gilderfray.’ – Beinart Gallery Blog.
