Synopsis

Originally published in 2017, the second edition (2021) of this acclaimed book - which was awarded the Prix Pierre Daix 2017 - features a new postface and a comprehensive chronology (1969-2020). Restoring the voices of the friends of the fight against AIDS; articulating the "I" and the "we" of then and today; examining facts and affects little known to the French and European public; analyzing the epidemic of consequential representation which followed the emergence of AIDS: such is the agenda of this book, conceived by Elisabeth Lebovici as a "discourse of method" in which the personal is always political, and public and private spheres are closely intertwined. In this book, Lebovici analyzes the relationships between art and activism at this pivotal moment, which she revisits from her memory as witness and survivor. This volume is the seventh title of the "Lectures maison rouge" series, directed by Patricia Falguières and coedited with La Maison rouge, Paris.
