Archive Label 2003: Jon O’Neal, a KU graduate, created a series of photographs that were inspired by his experiences as a medical intern participating in one of the military’s first rounds of systematic tests for the AIDS virus. These photographs address AIDS on several levels. They depict the male body, male sexuality, men who live with the knowledge that they are HIV positive, and a grid that suggests the repetitive pattern of examining and being examined.
