Sexis is launching a new project today with our article on Keith Haring, pop-culture artist and a pioneer for AIDS activism who was lost to the disease 20 years ago.
Nowhere have the effects of HIV/AIDs been more strongly felt than in the arts. But even in the face of devastating loss, AIDS also inspired an enduring array of works destined to become the masterpieces of our time, and spawned a new breed of activists, whose art both offered hope and raised funding for research, outreach and education.
SexIs will be spotlighting the pioneers who polarized the movement, as well as those who carry the torch today, passing it forward, until a cure can be found.
