Yo, Ocaña

Overview

José Pérez Ocaña, “La Ocaña”, as he liked to call himself, was a Spanish painter who used transvestism and performances as a calling card, but nevertheless a clearly unclassifiable artist. More than 40 years have had to pass since his premature death, for today Ocaña to be claimed as an icon of the LGBT movement and by extension a pioneer in the fight for all freedoms.
