Pera Film's annual I'm Here! film program, initiated in observance of World AIDS Day, this year hosts the screenings of the video collection Everyone I Know is Sick, curated by the contemporary art organization Visual AIDS.
Everyone I Know is Sick presents a selection of five videos by artists working around the world who make connections between HIV and other forms of illness and disability. Inspired by a statement in Cyrée Jarelle Johnson's book “Black Futures”, Everyone I Know Is Sick examines how our society excludes disabled and sick people through a false health-disease dichotomy. The program inviting us to understand disability as a shared experience rather than an exception to the norm highlights a range of experiences spanning HIV, COVID, mental health, and aging.
This program’s screenings are free admission. Drop in, no reservations. As per legal regulations, all our screenings are restricted to persons over 18 years of age, unless stated otherwise.

Martín Zapater y Clavería, born in Zaragoza on November 12th 1747, came from a family of modest merchants and was taken in to live with a well-to-do aunt, Juana Faguás, and her daughter, Joaquina de Alduy. He studied with Goya in the Escuelas Pías school in Zaragoza from 1752 to 1757 and a friendship arose between them which was to last until the death of Zapater in 1803.
Men were the first nudes in Turkish painting. The majority of these paintings were academic studies executed in oil paint; they were part of the education of artists that had finally attained the opportunity to work from the live model. The gender of the models constituted an obstacle in the way of characterizing these paintings as ‘nudes’.
Inspired by the exhibition And Now the Good News, which focusing on the relationship between mass media and art, we prepared horoscope readings based on the chapters of the exhibition. Using the popular astrological language inspired by the effects of the movements of celestial bodies on people, these readings with references to the works in the exhibition make fictional future predictions inspired by the horoscope columns that we read in the newspapers with the desire to receive good news about our day.
