Artery: The AIDS-Arts Forum, (www.artistswithaids.org/artery) is proud to
announce its Spring Literary Special. An in-between-issues special
publication, it highlights several  projects sponsored by Artery and the
Estate Project for Artists With AIDS. (The Estate Project for Artists With
AIDS, which produces Artery, is an initiative of the Alliance for the Arts.)

The Spring Literary Special features three essays from "Loss Within Loss,"
an Estate Project-coordinated anthology of writers on major talents who¹ve
died of AIDS, published by the University of Wisconsin and edited by the
noted author Edmund White. In addition to White¹s introduction, Artery is
pleased to publish an essay by Andrew Solomon and Keith McDermott¹s memoir
of the artist Joe Brainard.

 The Spring Literary Special also features a gallery of portraits of writers
who¹ve died of AIDS by photographer Robert Giard, and the finalists for "In
Rage and Remembrance," a poetry and prose contest co-sponsored by Artery and
POZ magazine. (Winners will be announced in early July.)

Artery is "the" resource for examining the AIDS crisis and its ever-changing
face as reflected in the arts. Part zine, part data base, and part
conversational forum, Artery is now in its second year of publication.
