About the Event
The RISD Museum is proud to partner with Visual AIDS for World AIDS Day/Day With(out) Art 2024 for a presentation of Red Reminds Me…, a screening of seven short videos that reflect 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. 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.
Free. Registration requested for this in-person program.
