“History is made by and for particular classes of people. A camera in some hands can preserve an alternate history.” —David Wojnarowicz Throughout his career, David Wojnarowicz’s use of photography was extraordinary, as was his unprecedented ways of addressing the AIDS crisis and issues of censorship, homophobia, and narrative. Originally published in 1994, “Brush Fires in the Social Landscape” began in collaboration with the artist two years prior to his death, going on to be reissued in 2015.
