The Art Institute of Chicago holds six works by David Wojnarowicz, including mid-career paintings, photographs, and mixed-media pieces.
Art Institute curators write: “Wojnarowicz first emerged in the context of the brash and brief burst of energy that took place in New York’s East Village in the beginning of the 1980s. Fusing the aesthetics of the punk-music scene, a keen awareness of an ethnically diverse street culture, and a committed sense of political activism, Wojnarowicz’s earliest works were often informal and ephemeral.”
