La MaMa La Galleria, 6 East 1st Street, NYC 

Join Visual AIDS, curator Nathan Lee, and participating artists for a gallery talk and walkthrough of Undetectable.

Undetectable features works by artists that uses the concept of "undetectable," a word that has come to signify new developments and modes of identification in the discourse of HIV/AIDS, and engages this emergent identity through a set of materials, texts, concepts, and practices concerned with presence and absence, transparency and contagion, the body and its limits.

Catalogue available at the gallery or download pdf version here.

Free & Open to the Public

Performances by Mary Walling Blackburn and SKOTE

As part of Mary Walling Blackburn’s work, Against Tenderness, the artist proposes to collectively translate a work by the pioneering queer theorist Guy Hocquenghem. This event will stage a reading of the completed translation, touching on Hocquenghem’s problems with tenderness.  SKOTE is a performance collaboration dedicated to the movement arts. Glands is a performance rooted in the relationship between a body and the moments in which it seems to "betray” us, such as in puberty, illness, and aging. Curated by Rachel Cook.
