Sex, politics and controversy are central themes of this exhibition of objects from the collection of the AIDS Action Council of the ACT and PLWHA ACT. A social history of community responses to HIV/AIDS, the exhibition documents early grassroots efforts by the protest group ACT UP, and the glossy and sophisticated campaigns of the late 1980s and 1990s.
