About this book

Jack Lowery examines how the artist collective Gran Fury used images, slogans, and advertising techniques in AIDS activism. Working alongside ACT UP, the group created materials that carried demands about treatment and institutional responsibility into public spaces. The account opens with a protest at the New York Stock Exchange, connecting the design of political messages with the organization and effects of direct action.
