Necrocapital: AIDS in the Age of Surplus Value
Necrocapital is an installation created by Eric Stanley and Jason Fritz that brings together the HIV/AIDS pandemic, global capital, and the work of death. In conversation with the ghosted histories of AIDS art and current writing on biopolitics, we question our silent cohabitation of a world where life is predicated upon access to cash. Through the abundance of American deco design and the everydayness of medication, Necrocapital wants to more than aestheticize the death-worlds of pharmaceutical accumulation, it seeks to obliterate them.
