Cover story: Dr Sketchy's Burlesque poses, tiny scraps of glittery clothing and live music are not what you normally associate with a life drawing class. But Molly Crabapple, the mastermind behind Dr Sketchy's Anti Art School, thought things needed to be shaken up in the fuddy art world and created an international phenomenon with her pouting lovelies. Rosalie Doubal puts aside her inner prude and meets her. See page 12.
