"desire documents a compelling exhibition which confronts our perception of artists living with disease. Whether behind or before the camera, these photographers play with notions of desire and sensuality, seducing the viewer with beguiling, romantic, realistic, and, for some people perhaps, shocking invocations of a universal human urge."

-- Barbara Hunt, Director Emeritus, Visual AIDS

"desire does co-exist with death; the body of a young man with HIV or AIDS is still the body of a young man. The self-portrait of an artist with HIV or AIDS is not completely defined by that laboratory fact. Thus, these are works that refuse to be encased by that news; they put forth too much beauty and elicit too much desire for that."

-- Ernesto Pujol, Curator
