Joe Brainard, who died of AIDS complications in 1994, was one of those artists whose talents span nearly every medium. He wrote poems, drew cartoons, sculpted, painted, and made collages. One of his favorite collaborators was the poet Ron Padgett, who is currently working on a book about his lifelong friend. Padgett shares some of his recollections with Dean Olsher. Produced by Pejk Malinovski.
