There is a Light That Never Goes Out
David Wojnarowicz: A Fire In My Belly (Film In Progress), 1986-87 (Super 8mm film, black and white & color, silent, running time 00:13:06)

There has been tons of press about this piece over the last few months because of the Smithsonian's weak-ass decision to remove it from the National Portrait Gallery exhibition Hide/Seek: Difference and Desire in American Portraiture, under pressure from Bill Donohue (President of the Catholic League) and several Republican congressmen. A number of galleries and museums around the country have since held exhibitions of A Fire In My Belly; one of them is Seattle's always-excellent Greg Kucera Gallery, which is showing the video and other work by Wojnarowicz through February 13.
