Toledo Museum of Art

The Toledo Museum of Art holds David Wojnarowicz’s Democracy at Work1989-1991, in its collection.

This arresting screen print on vellum was commissioned as part of YOUR HOUSE IS MINE—a publication organized by Andrew Castrucci and edited by Nadia Coen for Bullet Space (funded by Art Matters, Artist Space, Northstar Fund, and the Andy Warhol Foundation).

The posters were also wheat-pasted to the facade of Bullet Space, a squat and print shop on the lower east side. The volume’s introduction explains: “This project is a collection of images and texts, defining and expressing the broad and essential issue of housing on the Lower East Side, and is a statement of the underlying force of ‘art as a means of resistance’. It is both a documentation and expression of social/political issues in our neighborhood and on a larger scale to symbolize similar conflicts in other parts of the world.”

YOUR HOUSE IS MINE contains 29 signed lithograph, silkscreen, spray paint & collage posters on Mohawk vellum paper. The publication is bound in wood encased in lead and fastened with metal bolts produced as a limited edition of 150.

Artists represented include: Paul Castrucci, Nadia Coen, Betzaida Concepcion, Eric Drooker, John Fekner, Sabrina Jones, Vincent Galgliostro/Avram Finkelstein, Day Gleeson, and Dennis Tomas, Tom McGliynn and Emily Carter, Missing Foundation, Neighborhood News, Miguel Pinero/Andrew Castrucci, Lady Pink, Lee Quinones/Eduardo Galleano, Red Rodriguez, Will Sales, Juan Sanchez, Sebastian Schrooder, Walter Sipser, Stash Two, Seth Tobocman, Marguerite Van Cooke/James Romberger, Anton Von Dalen, Bruce Witsiepe, Martin Wong, and David Wojnarowicz.
