    David,
    I am a participant of the 2012 Cruise with Paul Stalbaum. I hope to meet you next week. I have a project you may be interested in for your museum.

    In 1997, when I was diagnosed with HIV, I was part of a project in Arizona (Mesa Community College Art Department) where they made a plaster cast of my face, and many other faces who were diagnosed with HIV. The project was going to be like the AIDS Quilt and travel everywhere. It only made it’s debut at Arizona State University and then it sort of died out. The masks are sitting in storage in Mesa. I am in contact with the Art Director to try to see if I can tour the masks or obtain them. When I saw your post, if I am able to get them, I thought maybe we can donate them to the museum for exhibit.

    The whole idea of the exhibit is to have people walk through and touch the masks. This represented people touching someone’s face with HIV and it proved to people that they wouldn’t get AIDS by touching someone who has it.

    Email me so we can discuss this further. If I am unable to get the masks, I would like to get a grant or sponsorship to see if we can cast new faces, and create an exhibit for your museum.

    Looking forward to meeting you on the cruise. Take care
    Ray V.
