book 'dear jean pierre' David Wojnarowicz 

Publisher: Primary Information

This 600-page publication brings together hundreds of postcards and letters exchanged between David Wojnarowicz and his Parisian lover, Jeans Pierre Delage, from 1979 to 1982. Capturing a truly formative moment in Wojnarowicz's artistic and literary practice, these letters reveal not only his compelling personality — and the tenderness, compassion and neuroses that accompanied it — but also bear witness to the development of the visual language that would define him as one of the most prominent artists of his generation. This collection allows readers to discover Wojnarowicz's Rimbaud series, his band 3 Teens Kill 4, the publication of his first photographs, his early friendship with Peter Hujar, his involvement in the then-emerging artistic and musical scenes of the East Village, and the preparations for the publication of his first book. These writings are accompanied by postcards, drawings, photocopies, photographs, collages, flyers, ephemera and contact sheets presenting some of the artist's most iconic images and works, such as the 'Burning House' motif and 'Untitled (Genet, after Brassai)'.
