Lucian Freud once said he wanted every painting to feel like the only one, the only work he was making, the only work he had ever made, almost the only painting anyone had ever made. It sounds extreme, but it explains everything about his work. The slowness. The obsession. The way his portraits feel heavy, exposed, unavoidable. Freud didn’t paint to produce images. He painted to stay inside a single image for as long as it took, sometimes years, until nothing felt accidental anymore. Each canvas

In the late 80s and 90s Lucian Freud focused on the ‘naked portrait’, showing both men and women as real, undressed people. Here Freud depicts the iconic Leigh Bowery, a performance artist known for his extraordinary costumes and important role in London’s club scene. These portraits create a feeling of deep intimacy between artist and sitter, revealing a vulnerable side to Bowery who at the time was dying of an AIDS-related illness.
