A selection from the University’s collection of posters about AIDS and HIV are being presented in a new public forum this spring.

Beginning in March, the Memorial Art Gallery featured 165 posters in a new exhibition, Up Against the Wall: Art, Activism, and the AIDS Poster.

Also available is a new book of the same name published last summer by RIT Press.

Housed in the Department of Rare Books, Special Collections, and Preservation, the collection of more than 8,000 posters was donated to the University by the late physician Edward Atwater ’50 who began collecting them early on in the AIDS pandemic.

The collection, much of which is available online, represents one of the largest single collections of visual resources related to the disease.
