HIV, AIDS & the Arts
HIV, AIDS & the Arts is an Open Access collection of international primary sources documenting the artistic response to the HIV/AIDS epidemic. It will include sheet music, manuscripts, playbills and production notes, and visual art, as well as the personal papers of lesser known artists of all types. The collection specifically seeks to include African artists who are responding to the epidemic through their work. This collection is still in development.
