David Wojnarowicz’s - Buffalo photograph.

“One of the most powerful protest photographs taken during Ronald Reagan’s corrupt and senile 1980s is not documentary in nature, makes no explicit reference to politics, and doesn’t have a title. It was taken by a man who was dying of AIDS, who was terribly abused as a child, and who had worked as a teenage prostitute in New York’s Times Square.”
