Visual AIDS

Visual AIDS utilizes the visual arts to promote AIDS awareness and historicizes the contributions of artists with HIV and the estates of artists lost to AIDS.

It's become an internationally recognized symbol for HIV and AIDS awareness, support, and remembrance for those who have died. James Arpad designed this pin, ca. 1992, in our @cooperhewitt.
