RUSSELL TOVEY IS READY TO TALK ART AND SEXUALITY AS HE LEADS THE ATTITUDE MAY ISSUE Russell Tovey has established himself as one of TV and film's most prolific British actors over the last decade, with acclaimed roles in everything from HBO's Looking and Russell T Davies' Years & Years to big-screen films like The Pass and The Good Liar. Now, the 39-year-old is exploring his passion for art of a different kind, using the wildly popular Talk Art podcast he co-hosts with Robert Diament to discuss fine art with some of the biggest legends the business. Ahead of the release of his new book Talk Art: Everything You Wanted to Know About Contemporary Art but Were Afraid to Ask, Russell lands colourfully on the cover of the Attitude May issue - out now to download and to order globally - as he reflects on the unique creative perspectives of queer people.
