Peter Hujar, a New Yorker of Ukrainian descent, died of AIDS in 1987. He recorded the world in astonishing portraits of cows, sheep, and geese in the country, dogs in the studio, the sea, the city, and above all his fellow human beings, many of whom have since won fame: Susan Sontag, John Waters, Divine, William S. Borroughs, Candy Darling, Robert Wilson, David Wojnarowicz, Paul Thek, and many men, in the nude, half-dressed, sleeping, posing, tumescent. People, animals, landscapes - Peter Hujar approached them all with great respect and a perfect sense of balance between near and far. His subjects face us with supremely dignified singularity, with loneliness at times, and at times in an aura of dauntless and "splendid isolation." nessuna recensione | aggiungi una recensione
This retrospective provides an overview of the work of Peter Hujar, whose portraits earned him cult status before his early death in 1987. Hujar drew most of his subjects from among his friends, many of whom were celebrities in their own right: Divine, William Burroughs, David Wojnarowicz, Paul Thek and Robert Wilson. His formal black and white photographs could expose human vulnerability, loneliness and grief. These photographs were chosen from the estate to represent his work. Hripsime Viser writes about Hujar's work from a European perspective, while American critic Max Kozloff analyzes the artist's visual language. These essays are complimented by the recollections of friends and acquaintances from the art world such as Gary Schneider, Nan Goldin, Ann Wilson, and Fran Lebowitz.
