James Levine, director of the Metropolitan Opera, talks about a benefit concert held by seven different orchestras to raise money for finding a cure for AIDS. Kitty Carlisle, chairman of the New York State Council on the Arts, praises the benefit for raising awareness within both the art community and the general public. Paul Moore, Episcopal Bishop of New York, talks about his church's memorial to victims of AIDS. Moore says that the idea that God is punishing homosexuality with AIDS is absurd. Artist Ross Bleckner talks about a similar fundraiser, Art Against AIDS, that sells artwork from artists to benefit victims of AIDS. Artist and AIDS sufferer Peter Kunz-Opfersei says that his art is a healing tool for him to live life to the fullest despite his disease. |
