Nan Goldin (b. 1953) is an American photographer and activist. Her work, often described in terms of a signature “snapshot aesthetic,” is an exploration of emotions, relationships, and identity. As part of the alternative, LGBTQ subculture burgeoning in the 1980s, many of Goldin’s photographs address the devastation of the AIDS crisis. In recent years, through her campaign, Prescription Addiction Intervention Now (P.A.I.N.), the artist has been aggessive in speaking out against the Sackler family and Purdue Pharma, manufacturers of OxyContin, and their responsibility for the opioid crisis.
