Day With(out) Art 2021: ENDURING CARE
For Day With(out) Art 2021, Visual AIDS partnered with the Brooklyn Museum and The Studio Museum in Harlem to present the New York City premiere of ENDURING CARE, a video program highlighting strategies of community care within the ongoing HIV epidemic.
The program features newly commissioned work by Katherine Cheairs, Cristóbal Guerra, Danny Kilbride, Abdul-Aliy A. Muhammad and Uriah Bussey, Beto Pérez, Steed Taylor, and J Triangular and the Women’s Video Support Project.
The screening was followed by a conversation with artists Katherine Cheairs, Cristóbal Guerra, Abdul-Aliy A. Muhammad, Beto Pérez, and Steed Taylor, moderated by Blake Paskal.
From histories of harm reduction and prison activism to the long-term effects of HIV medication, ENDURING CARE centers stories of collective care, mutual aid, and solidarity while pointing to the negligence of governments and non-profits. The program’s title suggests a dual meaning, honoring the perseverance and commitment of care workers yet also addressing the potential for harm from medications and healthcare providers. ENDURING CARE disrupts the assumption that an epidemic can be solved with pharmaceuticals alone, recasting community work as a lasting form of medicine.
This program was funded in part by Humanities New York with support from the National Endowment for the Humanities.
