“If silence equals death, he taught us, then art equals language equals life.”
Join SunGays and We Luv Video in celebrating the cinematic works of David Wojnarowicz.
Wojnarowicz was a painter, writer, photographer, performance artist, musician, and AIDS activist who is well known in the East Village art scene. Many may recognize his photo Untitled (Buffalo) which was recently used in the poster for Eddington (2025). David also published quite a few books, including his memoir about living with HIV and AIDS, Close to the Knives: A Memoir of Disintegration. His ties to the avant-garde as well as street art scene in 1970’s New York can be found across all of his work to make something entirely unique.
Celebrate the art and legacy of David Wojnarowicz on what would’ve been his 71st birthday with us.
