GREGG BORDOWITZ

Gregg Bordowitz, (born 1964) transformed his art practice in the mid-1980s in response to the AIDS public health crisis. Working with New York’s ACT UP (AIDS Coalition to Unleash Power) and several video collectives that he co-founded, he organized and documented a number of protests against government inaction, and advocated for health education and harm reduction. He also created remarkable video portraits of himself and others living with the disease, often using his “personal history as a way to tell a story shared by many.” This new work of prints is an extension of the artist’s practice employing many methods and genres, drawing on the manifold aspects of self and many forms of visual poetic composition.
