Early in the 1980s AIDS epidemic, six gay activists created one of
the most iconic and lasting images that would come to symbolize a
movement: a protest poster of a pink triangle with the words
"Silence = Death." The graphic and the slogan still resonate today,
often used-and misused-to brand the entire movement. Cofounder of
the collective Silence = Death and member of the art collective
Gran Fury, Avram Finkelstein tells the story of how his work and
other protest artwork associated with the early years of the
pandemic were created. In writing about art and AIDS activism, the
formation of collectives, and the political process, Finkelstein
reveals a different side of the traditional HIV/AIDS history, told
twenty-five years later, and offers a creative toolbox for those
who want to learn how to save lives through activism and making
art.
