Description:: Shows a nude man floating in front of a triptych of stars, a moon, and a cloud with an angel. Below him is an assortment of items associated with gay culture (a book of Robert Mapplethorpe's photography, a Freddie Mercury album, a Keith Haring painting) as well as holiday decor and wrapped presents. The poster may represent the gifts of gay culture to the mainstream and argue against thinking of the gay community as separate and the only part of society that has to deal with AIDS. It also suggests the decimation of the gay community by AIDS, as represented by the three artists, each of whom died of AIDS.

Description:: Underneath the title, "Test HIV," is a large black arrow pointing downwards to words which translated reads, "Getting the test is important for you and for others."Along the left side of the poster in white lettering on a blue background is a textual explanation of how AIDS is transmitted (sharing needles, from sexual relations, from an infected mother to her baby). Also explained is the need to take a simple blood test, and advice about how it is voluntary and anonymous to do so; the results are confidential. Finally there is the warning that many people have contact with HIV without knowing it.
