    ART+ Positive & Electric Blanket with Leslie-Lohman Museum

    Visual AIDS partnered with the Leslie-Lohman Museum of Art on the final public program for "Images on which to build, 1970s-1990s," curated by Ariel Goldberg. This event celebrated two pivotal AIDS-related projects: Electric Blanket, a public projection created by Nan Goldin, Allen Frame, and Frank Franca with Visual AIDS in the 1990s, and the work of ART+ Positive, an artist collective that included Lola Flash, Julie Tolentino, Aldo Hernández, Hunter Reynolds, Leon Mostovoy, and Ray Navarro–among others. Moderated by curator Ariel Goldberg, this event provided space for New York based members of these two groups, Lola Flash, Allen Frame, Frank Franca, and Aldo Hernández, to reflect on endurance and resilience, collective organizing in their art practice, and the material realities of these works.
