This month on continuous view. Video Installation By Peter Cramer and Jack Waters: An archival reconstruction. Panel 3 of PRIDE 2001 "We Remember", a 3 channel video installation. Pride 2001 was on view for the month of June 2021 at the original location of the NYC Public Library Donell Media Center in a window facing the Museum of Modern Art. The original work integrated video, original still photographs by Peter Cramer documentary stills, and print media to manifest the past present, present and future of the AIDS and gay activist movement. Blending the personal with the political, and reconciling the marginal with the familiar, PRIDE 2001 resurrects erased and forgotten operatives of AIDS and gay activism. Digitized from the original hi-8 mastered on mini DV.
