Day With(out) Art 2024: Red Reminds Me . . .

The Harvard Art Museums has partnered with Visual AIDS for Day With(out) Art 2024, by presenting "

," a program of seven videos exploring the emotional spectrum of living with HIV today, on December 8 at 2pm. Through the red ribbon and other visuals, HIV and AIDS have been long associated with the color red and its connotations—blood, pain, tragedy, and anger. "Red Reminds Me . . ." invites viewers to consider a complex range of images and feelings surrounding HIV, from eroticism and intimacy, mothering and kinship, luck and chance, memory and haunting. The commissioned artists deploy parody, melodrama, theater, irony, and horror to build a new vocabulary for representing HIV today. For more information please visit the Harvard Art Museums website.
