EXHIBITIONS: About a Traveling Exhibition

The archive of public health posters about AIDS at the National Library of Medicine is rooted in the cultural output of artists, activists, and community workers. Their work—specifically, the use of personal narrative, drawing as a visual art strategy, language, and the collective process in the creation of AIDS posters–continues to broadcast the message that, 40 years after the crisis began, AIDS is not over. AIDS, Posters & Stories of Public Health: A People’s History of a Pandemic is a display of six roll-up graphic banners that travel in one container, measuring 48”(h) x 19”(w) x 19” (d) and weighing 70 lbs.
