Platinum print, the image measuring 254x352 mm; 10 1/2x13 7/8 inches, the sheet 406x505 mm; 16x19 7/8 inches, with Wojnarowicz's Estate stamp and edition notation 24/100 in pencil on verso; enclosed in the original paper folder with an original text by David Wojnarowicz and the printed colophon and publishing information. 1988; printed 1994. David Wojnarowicz made this image of a diorama at the Smithsonian National Museum of American History in Washington, D.C. soon after his own AIDS diagnosis. The image of the buffalo falling over the edge of a cliff draws a parallel between their freefall and near-extinction and the government's inadequate response to the AIDS epidemic. "Even in the face of something like gravity, one can jump at least three or four feet in the air and even though gravity will drag us back to the earth again, it is in the moment we are three or four feet in the air that we experience true freedom." - David Wojnarowicz

Transcription: "If I had a dollar to spend for healthcare I'd rather spend it on a baby or an innocent person with some defect or illness not of their own responsibility; not some persons with AIDS...” says the Texas healthcare official and I can't even remember what he looks like I reached in through the t.v. screen and ripped his face in half I was told I have ARC (aids related complex) recently and this was after watching seven friends die in the last two years slow vicious unnecessary deaths because fags and dykes and drug addicts are the expendable in this country " If you want to stop AIDS shoot the queers...” says the ex-governor of Texas and I'm carrying this rage like a blood filled egg and there's a thin line between the inside and the outside a thin line between thought and action and that line is simply made up of blood and muscle and bone I'm waking up more and more from daydreams of tipping amazonian blowdarts in "infected blood" and spitting them at the exposed necklines of certain politicians or nazi-preachers or government health care officials or the rabid strangers parading against AIDS clinics in the nightly news suburbs there's a thin line a very thin line and as each T-cell disappears from my body its replaced by ten pounds of pressure ten pounds of rage and I focus that rage into non-violent resistance but that focus is starting to slip my hands are beginning to move independent of thought the egg is starting to crack America seems to understand murder as self defense against those who would murder us and its been murder on a daily basis for eight long years in this killing machine called America and I say there's certain politicians that better increase their security forces there's walking swastikas in the forms of religious leaders and healthcare officials that had better get bigger dogs and higher fences and more complex security alarms for their homes and queer bashers better start doing their work from inside howitzer tanks because the thin line between the outside and the inside is beginning to erode and at the moment I'm a sixteen foot tall five hundred and seventy two pound man inside this six foot frame and all I can feel is the pressure all I can feel is the pressure and the need for release.”

Faserstift in Schwarz auf dünnem Skizzenblockpapier. 1985. -- 22,9 x 15,2 bzw. 22,8 x 15,2 cm. -- Beide verso mit Kugelschreiber in Schwarz signiert "L. David Wj.", datiert und gewidmet "For John". -- -- Der amerikanische Künstler David Wojnarowicz, der im Alter von nur 37 an den Folgen von Aids verstarb, gehörte in den 1980er Jahren zu den führenden Figuren der New Yorker Undergroundszene. Er wurde als Street-Art-Künstler, Maler, Schriftsteller, Fotograf, Filmemacher und Performance-Künstler bekannt. In seinem kompromisslosen Werk dokumentierte und beleuchtete der Künstler wichtige Perioden der amerikanischen Geschichte: die AIDS-Krise und die Kulturkriege der späten 1980er und frühen 1990er Jahre. Die beiden Zeichnungen sind das Zeugnis der Freundschaft zu dem amerikanischen Schauspieler, Autor und Regisseur John Edward Heys, der ebenfalls in zahlreichen Aufnahmen des gemeinsamen Freundes Peter Hujar zu sehen ist. In ihrer gemeinsamen Zeit in New York traten Heys und weitere Künstler als Charaktere aus dem Text „Sounds in the Distance“ von Wojnarowicz in Performances auf. Als Wojnarowicz mit der Performance 1984 nach Berlin eingeladen wurde, folgten ihm u.a. Heys und weitere Künstler, die gemeinsam in die Underground-Drag-Szene der Stadt eintauchten. Die beiden Zeichnungen sind im Zusammenhang mit der Performance und der gemeinsamen Reise zu sehen. -- -- - Provenienz: Direkt vom Künstler an John Edward Heys -- -- - Wir bitten darum, Zustandsberichte zu den Losen zu erfragen, da der Erhaltungszustand nur in Ausnahmefällen im Katalog angegeben ist. -- - Please ask for condition reports for individual lots, as the condition is usually not mentioned in the catalogue.
