The Blanton’s Come as You Are Series, Films of the 90s: How to Survive a Plague

In conjunction with the Blanton’s exhibit, Come as You Are: Art of the 1990s, the museum will screen important films that premiered throughout the decade. Join us on April 17th as we screen How to Survive a Plague, a powerful documentary about the AIDS epidemic, political indifference, and the activists fighting for public health and social justice in the 1980s and 1990s. Assistant curator Evan Garza will speak about the works of Felix Gonzalez-Torres in a short lecture preceding the film. (Parental discretion is advised, as the film may contain mature content.)
