Ministry: Reverend Joyce McDonald Catalogue ($35)
The first book dedicated to the sculptural practice of Reverend Joyce McDonald, published on the occasion of her solo exhibition at The Bronx Museum.

Visual AIDS was formed in 1988 by a small group of curators and arts writers who were confounded by the lack of agency mustered by the art world in the face of the ongoing AIDS epidemic. “This organization has always thought of itself as an activist organization,” says Carlos Gutierrez-Solana, Treasurer of Visual AIDS, “but I think a lot of people don’t understand that there’s all kinds of activism. And quite honestly, my being alive today is an activist act. This organization existing is an activist act.”
