Untitled (Buffaloes)
1988
David Wojnarowicz's "Untitled (Buffaloes)" is a platinum print that captures the artist's characteristic interest in natural imagery and symbolic content, rendered in the rich tonal qualities distinctive to the platinum printing process. The work bears the artist's estate stamp and is numbered 89 of 100, having been posthumously printed and editioned by Tom Rauffenbart, the executor of Wojnarowicz's estate. Platinum printing, favored for its archival permanence and subtle gradations of tone, lends an elegiac quality appropriate to Wojnarowicz's artistic concerns with mortality, memory, and the natural world.
