Red Reminds Me...
2024 1 hr
On the anniversary of Day With(out) Art, a day when cultural organizations raise awareness of HIV and AIDS, remember people who have died, and inspire positive action, the Garden Theatre and Princeton University Art Museum invite you to a screening of Red Reminds Me. This program of seven videos was commissioned by Visual AIDS and reflects on the emotional spectrum of living with HIV today. Through the red ribbon and other visuals, HIV and AIDS has been long associated with the color red and its connotations — blood, pain, tragedy, and anger. The screening will be introduced by Art Museum Director James Steward.
This screening is FREE and open to the public.
Event Details
Following the screening, join the film director David Oscar Harvey and James Steward for a discussion of Harvey’s video Ambivalence: On HIV & Luck, which tackles the disorienting experience of existing with a manageable condition that our present culture insists on representing in terms of its bleak past. Interested in figuring HIV differently, the film presents a series of visual puns merging the iconography of HIV and AIDS with popular symbols of luck.
