Home Live Wire Controversial Film Coming to Brooklyn Museum

David Wojnarowicz’s controversial exhibition, “A Fire in My Belly,” is coming to the Brooklyn Museum on Nov. 18, reports The Wall Street Journal.

A video from the exhibition, which includes a film depicting ants crawling on a crucifix, was pulled from the National Portrait Gallery in Washington D.C. last year after the work provoked public debate.

This exhibition, entitled “Hide/Seek,” is reportedly the first major in a museum show to consider gay themes in art history. The museum has received many letters protesting the exhibit since its announcement.
