The Aesthetic Activism of ACT UP MONTRÉAL: a history in photos and posters | Quebec Gay Archives

ACT UP Montreal had a brief but very active existence, with many protests and performances against government inaction on the HIV/AIDS crisis. The Archives gaies du Québec holds over 2000 photographs taken by René LeBoeuf during the activities of ACT UP Montreal, as well as materials used during the protests such as signs and banners. A selection from this collection will be featured in the exhibition.
