Memento Mori: An AIDS Elegy

Virtual Museum Exhibit-Pasos the Museum and Center for Peacebuilding (www.pasospeacemuseum.org)-Memento Mori: An AIDS Elegy is photographer Michael Minichiello's response to the devastation of the AIDS epidemic in the 1980s and 90s. With the death of so many friends, he set out on a personal journey that would take him to cemeteries from Prague to Scotland, Ireland to Budapest, Venice to Nova Scotia, New York to Paris, where ubiquitous islands of quietude unmask a universal human heart. Here in these gardens of stone, he was immersed in humanity's most poignant response to agony and serenity, piercing questioning and the most solemn resignation to fate.
