Description
Poster shows an example of the artwork of Edith Hirsch and advertises an exhibit and sale of her art held in 1988 to benefit Österreichische AIDS-Hilfe. The painting is of several images superimposed: a butterfly, a woman's open legs, and an unrolled condom. In the lower right corner is a small green inchworm. The World AIDS Day logo for 1988 appears at the bottom of the poster, and apparently it fell during the dates of the exhibit.
Poster held by Louise M. Darling Biomedical Library. History & Special Collections, Collection no. 306, item AU046.
