Kinfolk: Portals of Remembrance

New York City AIDS Memorial, 76 Greenwich Avenue, West Village, Manhattan
Through April 30

The NYC AIDS Memorial and its adjacent park honor the victims of the epidemic and the activists who fought against prejudice and inaction. This site of tribute and quiet reflection is also often activated through contemporary art commissions, most recently three “virtual monuments” by artists Derek Fordjour, Egyptt LaBeija & Tourmaline, and Jacolby Satterwhite, all centering Black and Brown figures and history. Download Kinfolk’s free augmented reality (AR) app to see them come to life onsite.
