Outrageous exquisite corpses from the heart of London's clubland.

The wild years of the 1980s and early 1990s, when central London was a clubbers' paradise... a circle of young, queer friends, including the celebrated Australian designer, performer, musician, and provocateur Leigh Bowery and his Minty bandmates, would get together at Richard Torry's Soho flat before hitting the town.


To pass the time, the troupe would sometimes make “exquisite corpses”, employing a technique popular with the Surrealists to create compound images of often outrageous characters.

Collected here for the first time are over 100 of their wild creations, acerbic observations and beautiful monsters.
