Boy George talks art, faith, and… Cyprus (video)

On the occasion of the -well-known by now- story when he returned a long lost icon he had accidentally bought by an art dealer, to its legal owners, the Church of Cyprus, music legend Boy George talked art, faith, and his beloved Cyprus on our over-the-phone interview for Sigma TV. The icon was stolen by the turkish troops who invaded the island in 1974 and took the works of art out of the island, selling them to art dealers. Boy George got possession of the icon 11 years after the invasion, not knowing its origin and returned the icon as soon as he found out it belonged to the Church.
