Class Description

Description

What you'll learn in this lecture class:

Today, in a city dotted with monuments to war dead and shrines to those lost in terrorist attacks, it is rare to find memorials to those who died from infectious disease or artworks commemorating those living with disease. 

Artist and activist Avram Finkelstein and essayist Garnette Cadogan join moderator David Favaloro for a conversation about the experiences of those affected by infectious disease, the role of stigma in social and institutional responses to illness, and who is remembered, forgotten, and commemorated.

This program accompanies our exhibition Germ City: Microbes and the Metropolis
