Sebastian Horsley

Sebastian Horsley was an artist, writer and self-declared dandy, who was born in Yorkshire in 1962. In his memoir Dandy in the Underworld, published in 2007, he describes his dysfunctional upbringing and the highs and lows of his wild life as an adult. Also in 2007, the Spectrum London gallery mounted a retrospective of his art. His book was adapted as a play by Tim Fountain and opened at the Soho Theatre in London in June 2010, just before he died of an overdose.
