In early November, the Style and Spirit Exhibition was opened at the David Roche Gallery to explore the life and design ethos of an important but forgotten style icon while highlighting how HIV stigma contributed to his erasure. Chester Weinberg was the first fashion designer to die of AIDS related illness in 1985. Despite his importance and the prominence of his work, HIV stigma saw Chester literally written out of history books. In this episode of WWW, we’ll head to the exhibition’s opening and hear from co-curators Skye Bartlett and Timothy Roberts. We’ll also hear from Ian Hunter MLC, who helped found the South Australian AIDS Action Committee in the mid 1980s. Ann Maccarrone, Community Engagement and Partnerships Manager at ViiV Healthcare was there and speaks with Jack about the evening. We also hear from community groups at Picnic in the Park, which is part of Feast Festival, Adelaide’s LGBTIQA+ Arts and Cultural Festival.
