Marilyn Monroe photographed by Alfred Eisenstaedt, 1953.
I left my home of green rough wood, A blue velvet couch. I dream till now A shiny dark bush Just left of the door. Down the walk Clickity clack As my doll in her carriage Went over the cracks- “We’ll go far away.” ~ MM
David Wojnarowicz wore this jacket in 1988, just 4 years before he’d ultimately die from AIDS. Sadly, just a few years ago some of his artistic work was censored at the Smithsonian. People in power are still content to try and erase his history and the continued struggles of people with AIDS
everyone everywhere please please please reblog this important artist.
Just bought a book about him just last night, "Fire in the Belly- The Life & Times of David Wojnarowicz" by Cynthia Carr.
His book "Close to the Knives- A Memoir of Disintegration" is supposed to be really good.
