Last Address
Visual AIDS observed Day With(out) Art / World AIDS Day 2010 with simultaneous screenings of Last Address, a film by Ira Sachs.
Last Address, by filmmaker Ira Sachs, uses images of the exteriors of the houses, apartment buildings, and lofts where these and others were living at the time of their deaths to mark the disappearance of a generation. The film is a remembrance of that loss, as well as an evocation of the continued presence of these artists’ work in our lives and culture.
