David Wojnarowicz’s fractured scrapbook of dream journals, political critique and collage—an ultra-rare document of 1980s New York subculture

David Wojnarowicz’s In the Shadow of Forward Motion was originally published as a photocopied zine/artist’s book to accompany an exhibition of the same name at PPOW Gallery in 1989. Despite its meager print run of just 50 copies, the publication has garnered a legendary status, and for good reason.
