Abstract

This article shows a little bit of the historical and social path of the HIV/Aids epidemic through the exhibition of some prevention posters. The choice of these pieces were done in a way to help the conduction of a bigger argumentation: the role of the designer (the one´s that make those campaigns) as a simple reproducer of known discourses. Therefore the bigger goal here is to propose the enlargement of the fields and the boundaries for the professional act of the designer in a way of thinking new proposals and new ways to deal with the politics of prevention and health. The campaigns presented here where given by the ONG San Francisco Aids Foundation.
