[rohrpost] Fwd: Contemporary Art and Aids


THE DECEMBER 1 ISSUE of "ARTERY: THE AIDS-ARTS FORUM" DEVOTED to ACTIVISM,
FEATURES INTERVIEW WITH ARTIST FRANK MOORE, the PREMIERE PUBLICATION of NEW
SARAH SCHULMAN PLAY and MUCH MORE http://www.artistswithaids.org/artery

Artery: The AIDS-Arts Forum, created earlier this year by the Estate Project
for Artists With AIDS, is the most acclaimed resource for examining the
ever-changing face of the AIDS crisis as reflected in the arts. Part zine,
part data base, and part conversational forum, Artery is also sponsoring the
ONLY international events calendar of cultural activities for WORLD AIDS
DAY/DAY WITH(OUT) ART on DECEMBER 1.

Artery's December 1 theme is ACTIVISM approached from a fresh, stimulating
and accessible perspective. Features include:

--Michael Bronski's surprising interviews with two dozen subjects--including
filmmaker Jennie Livingston, transgendered performer Kate Bornstein and
comedian Kate Clinton--on the origins of their activism;

--A special section devoted to writer Sarah Schulman presenting the premiere
publications of both her play "The Child" and two essays including "Through
the Looking Glass";

--Jim Hubbard's catalog essay on AIDS-activist video for the "Fever in the
Archive" exhibition at the Guggenheim Museum opening on December 1;

--Jeff Weinstein's ode to the pleasures of activism and citizenship, and
many other features, interviews, reviews, and a round-table discussion.
Additionally, note that the informative and sometimes surprisingly
irreverent fall issue of Artery, IN MEMORIAM, of course, remains online.
Artery also presents the panel "Who Cares? AIDS, Activism and the Arts" at
the New School, 66 W 12th St, on December 4 at 8 p.m. with Robert Atkins,
Gregg Bordowitz, Richard Elovich, Pamela Sneed and Sarah Schulman
