GRAN FURY: ACTIVISM, ART AND DESIGN PANEL Friday, February 14: 4:30–6 PM Mercury Ballroom, 3rd Floor John Lindell in conversation with Tom Kalin, Kyle Croft, Robert Vázquez-Pacheco and Richard E. Meyer Join us for a panel discussion on Gran Fury, the activist artist collective that emerged from ACT UP and is known for their impactful work during the AIDS crisis in the late 1980s and early 1990s. Our panelists will examine how Gran Fury used graphic design and public art to address social issues, focusing on projects like the "Kissing Doesn't Kill" campaign. Gran Fury formed to summon a sense of collective indignation. The group produced posters, newspapers, stickers, photographs, videos and billboards that were circulated to transform perceptions about HIV/AIDS and challenge ineffective public policies. Gran Fury’s agitprop art, often disseminated outside of traditional art spaces, sparked a monumental shift in both the American history of medicine and public opinion overall. Original Gran Fury members Tom Kalin, John Lindell and Robert Vázquez-Pacheco, along with Kyle Croft and Richard Meyer, will be discussing the collective’s strategies and enduring influence, as well as Gran Fury: Art Is Not Enough, the sweeping forthcoming catalog of the group’s body of work. Kyle Croft is the Executive Director of Visual AIDS. He co-edited Visual AIDS’s recent monograph on the late artist Darrel Ellis. Filmmaker and activist Tom Kalin is a prominent figure in the New Queer Cinema. John Lindell is a New York-based visual artist. He is represented by Corvi-Mora. Robert Vázquez-Pacheco is a visual artist and writer in New York. He is also an AIDS activist, and community educator and organizer. Richard Meyer is Robert and Ruth Halperin Professor in Art History at Stanford University. He is the author of Outlaw Representation: Censorship and Homosexuality in Twentieth-Century American Art.
