Uncut version of David Wojnarowiscz’s censored video ‘A Fire In My Belly’

Last week David Wojnarowiscz’s video “A Fire In My Belly” was removed from the Smithsonian National Portrait Gallery’s exhibit, ‘Hide/Seek: Difference and Desire in American Portraiture.’ The version pulled from the exhibit was actually just an excerpt from the original 21 minute film. Here’s the uncut version of “A Fire In My Belly” courtesy of the estate of David Wojnarowicz and P.P.O.W Gallery, New York.

Unlike the shorter version, the original video does not contain Diamanda Galas’s vocal track. I find the silent version more haunting.
