HIV and AIDS are not pretty subjects. But the way cultures around the world address those subjects just might be.
That’s the thinking behind “Graphic Intervention: 25 Years of International AIDS Awareness Posters 1985-2010,” opening Friday at the Wolfsonian-FIU. The museum has rounded up more than 150 AIDS awareness and safe-sex education posters from countries around the globe and displayed them in one cohesive exhibit. Individually, the pieces reflect the way their respective countries view sexual health and sexual morality. Collectively, they’re a powerful reminder of the pervasiveness of the AIDS crisis.
Mondays, Tuesdays, Thursdays-Sundays, 12-6 p.m. Starts: May 11. Continues through Sept. 9, 2012
Will you step up to support New Times this year?
At New Times, we’re small and scrappy — and we make the most of every dollar from our supporters. Right now, we’re $17,250 away from reaching our December 31 goal of $30,000. If you’ve ever learned something new, stayed informed, or felt more connected because of New Times, now’s the time to give back.
