Gregg Bordowitz: Criticising Representation in Order to Represent People With AIDS

  • Isabella Shields The University of Edinburgh

Abstract


Gregg Bordowitz’s literary and artistic output is seminal to postmodern art theory, institutional critique, and post-AIDS queer theory. This paper demonstrates both the need for appropriate self-representation for People With AIDS, and the insidious culture of disavowal and dehumanisation of PWAs that artists like Bordowitz confronted and discredited.
