Abstract

"Dear Jean Pierre collects David Wojnarowicz's transatlantic correspondence to his Parisian lover Jean Pierre Delage between 1979 and 1982. Capturing a truly foundational moment for Wojnarowicz's artistic and literary practice, these letters not only reveal his captivating personality--and its concomitant tenderness, compassion, and neuroses--but also index the development of the visual language that would go on to define him as one of the preeminent artists of his generation. Through this collection, readers are introduced to Wojnarowicz's Rimbaud series, the band 3 Teens Kill 4, the publication of his first photographs, his early friendship with Peter Hujar, his participation in the then-emerging East Village art and music scenes, and the preparations for the publication of his first book. Included with these writings are postcards, drawings, xeroxes, photographs, collages, flyers, ephemera, and contact sheets that showcase some of the artist's iconic images and work, such as the Burning House motif and Untitled (Genet, after Brassai). Beyond these milestones, the book offers a striking portrayal of Wojnarowicz as a twenty-something, detailing his day-to-day life with the type of unbridled earnestness that comes with that age and the softness of love and longing. This disarming tenderness provides a picture of a young man just beginning to find his voice in the world and the love he has found in it. Although the two exchanged letters in equal measure, Delage's correspondences have largely been lost, leaving us with only a revelatory glimpse into the internal world of Wojnarowicz during what turned out to be his formative years."

Abstract

"David Wojnarowicz's use of photography was remarkably innovative, as was his unprecedented way of addressing the AIDS crisis and issues of censorship, homophobia, and narrative. Brush Fires in the Social Landscape, begun in collaboration with the artist before his death in 1992 and first published in 1994, engaged throse who Wojnarowicz would refer to as his 'tribe' or community. Now on the twentieth anniversary of Brush Fires, when interest in the artists' work has increased exponentially, Aperture has expanded and redesigned this seminal publication to be even more inclusive. It is the only book that features the breadth of Wojnarowicz's work with photography. The contributors - from artist and writer friends to the lawyer who represented him in his case against Donald Wildmon and the American Family Association, to the next generation of artists who were influenced by Wojnarowicz's sensibility - together offer a compelling, provovative understanding of the artist and his work."

Abstract

"Few artists in the late twentieth century have captured the emotional, sexual, and political chaos of urban life like David Wojnarowicz. In the Shadow of the American Dream chronicles Wojnarowicz's life from age seventeen until his AIDS-related death at thirty-seven, and draws on his experiences at the margins of American society. After his HIV+ diagnosis Wojnarowicz engaged in highly public debates about health care, homophobia, and censorship, creating deeply political art even as he became a target for the right wing."--BOOK JACKET. "In the Shadow of the American Dream tells the story of Wojnarowicz's emergence as an artist and writer: from publishing his first photographs - the Arthur Rimbaud in New York series and writing monologues based on the world of outsiders he encountered; to touring Europe as a renowned painter and publishing his tour de force, Close to the Knives. In the Shadow of the American Dream offers an intimate glimpse of the New York art scene in the 1980s, and is finally a record of the private Wojnarowicz, falling in love for the first time, exploring erotic possibilities on the Hudson River piers, becoming overwhelmed by the demands of survival, and searching for the pleasure and freedom he believed one could live on."--Jacket.

Abstract

Wat betekent het om eenzaam te zijn? Hoe gaan we verbindingen aan met andere mensen? Brengt de technologie ons dichter bij elkaar of houdt die ons gevangen achter onze schermen? Olivia Laing onderzoekt de relatie tussen stad, eenzaamheid en creativiteit. Voor de liefde verhuisde ze ooit van Londen naar New York, maar toen die liefde al snel vertrok maakte ze vier seizoenen eenzaamheid door. Hoewel die gemoedstoestand haaruitval veroorzaakte en haar tot een verlegen voyeurist maakte, stelde die haar ook in staat na te denken over uitsluiting, het verband tussen solitarisme en schaamte, en de verhouding tot de ander.In haar zoektocht focust Laing zich op New York en vier kunstenaars die in deze metropool wonen: Edward Hopper, Andy Warhol, David Wojnarowicz en Henry Darger. Aan de hand van hun levens en werk ondervindt ze hoe stedelijke eenzaamheid de populaire cultuur als een epidemie heeft geïnfecteerd en ontdekt ze hoe kunst ook kan werken als medicijn.https://www.standaardboekhandel.be/p/de-eenzame-stad-9789023494584
