Series XIII: Objects and Artifacts, 1914-1992, inclusive
Scope and Contents note
Series XIII consists of objects and artifacts collected or created by David Wojnarowicz.
Arrangement
This series is arranged into three subseries: Subseries A: General Objects and Artifacts; Subseries B: The Magic Box; and Subseries C: Personal Items.
Processing Information
From October 2020 through October 2021, objects in Series XIII were assessed and rehoused as part of the Kress Fellowship in Plastics Conservation. Plastic items were rehoused to group like polymers together in the same boxes and prevent further degradation. Benign plastics are housed in Tyvek or tissue with silicone-coated mylar. Cellulose nitrate and acetate are housed in boxes that allow for air circulation. PVC is stored in non-vented mylar bags to inhibit plasticizer degradation. Rubber and polyurethane are housed in oxygen-free environments with oxygen scavengers inside of bags. Non-plastic objects were also rehoused to consolidate boxes and provide better protection for items within each box. Boxes throughout this series were then renumbered seriatim.
Subseries A: General Objects and Artifacts
Scope and Contents
The objects in this series include religious objects, figurines, jewelry, toys, textiles, and artworks. While some of the objects are artworks made by Wojnarowicz, they also include artworks made by others, ritual objects, natural artifacts and commercial objects that he collected. Some of the objects figured as props in Wojnarowicz's photography and film works.
