Art review Knight of the realm hopes he can still be an outsider, with help from his alter egos

Grayson Perry is fascinated by outsiders - outcasts, nonconformists, the marginalized and the deviant. He has frequently assumed the outsider position, delivering commentaries on class, gender and Britons' petty snobberies.

Grayson Perry is fascinated by outsiders - outcasts, nonconformists, the marginalized and the deviant. He has frequently assumed the outsider position, delivering commentaries on class, gender and Britons' petty snobberies. Across his career, he has pronounced on how his medium of choice (ceramics), his crossdressing or his engagement with popular culture have excited the disapproval of cliques including the art world. Now, as a member of the Royal Academy, a knight of the realm and ubiquitous presence on television, that anti-establishment stance is under some strain.

This exhibition coincides with his 65th birthday, and the Wallace Collection is hung with banner photographs of the artist, glamorous in sheeny tights and a vast bouffant. If nothing else, Sir Grayson is happy to play along with someone else's belief that he is worth celebrating on a grand scale.
