A list of things Jimmy DeSana photographed shoes, sofas, legs and butts misses his true subject, which was a sensibility.He regarded the body as a playground, gender as an ongoing invention, and domestic interiors as surreal constructions.He had a queer take on life.A familiar presence on the downtown New York scene, DeSana has been largely overlooked since his death in 1990, at 40, of AIDS-related illnesses.
