NEWS by Julia LASKER | Art Against AIDS -2009

UNAIDS and the All-Russian Union of People Living with HIV came together for the second time to support the international project Art Against AIDS that unites well-known artists in the response to the HIV epidemic in Russia. This year, proceeds from the sale of art at the exhibition went to low-income families raising children living with HIV.

More than 30 contemporary artists, photographers, and musicians from Russia, the United States, Japan, Greece and Spain offered their work for the charitable exhibition-sale held at the Central House of Artists from 12 - 26 November 2009. Last year, funds raised during the exhibition-sale went to children living with HIV at the Vsevolozhsk Orphanage in Leningrad Oblast.
