About
Surviving and Thriving: AIDS, Politics and Culture
Surviving and Thriving/Sobrevivir y Prosperar, a bilingual refresh of a 2013 exhibition project, illustrates an iconic history of HIV/AIDS alongside lesser-known examples of historical figures who changed the course of the pandemic. The original exhibition was curated by Jennifer Brier, PhD, a scholar at the University of Illinois at Chicago and designed by Riggs Ward Design.
