Day With(out) Art
Day With(out) Art began on December 1, 1989, as the national day of action and mourning in response to the AIDS crisis. Since then, it has grown into a collaborative project in which an estimated 8,000 national and international museums, galleries, art centers, AIDS service organizations, libraries, high schools, and colleges take part. The Artpace building will feature an AIDS awareness banner designed by late artist Chuck Ramirez (1962-2010), whose art and life were impacted by being HIV positive. For more information on DWA, go to http://www.thebody.com/visualaids/dwa/.
During our regular public hours from noon to 5pm, Artpace will feature five consecutive screenings of Untitled by Jim Hodges, Carlos Marques da Cruz, and Encke King. The 60-minute film will be showing at participating venues throughout New York City and across the United States, including Artpace in honor of A Day With(out) Art. Beginning with a reflection on the early AIDS epidemic, the film eschews a linear narrative to introduce a fractious timeline, moving from the sublime to the tragic and back again. Please join us in recognizing this day as as the national day of action and mourning in response to the AIDS crisis.
