Gregg Bordowitz speaks to longtime friend and Visual AIDS artist member, Stephen Andrews about painting, poetry, cosmology, and survival.

In the forward, Lynne Tillman writes:

"Telling words recur in this smart, generous conversation between Stephen Andrews and Gregg Bordowitz: patience, responsibility, feminism, ethics, poetry, cosmology, AIDS, art, gift, freedom, body, work, mortality. From their youth, the AIDS epidemic of the 1980s made indelible, desperate claims on Andrews and Bordowitz. Both men grew up with it, and its effects on their own bodies. They saw many friends and colleagues die, too many, and they themselves expected to die. Somehow they survived long enough to be saved by protease inhibitors, which appeared in 1996."

Stephen Andrews is a Toronto-based artist know for making artworks that mediate between analogue techniques and mass-media imagery.

Gregg Bordowitz is a writer and artist living in New York. He is also the director of the School of the Art Institute of Chicago's Low Residency MFA Program.
