Colors [Benetton]
Offset lithograph poster, 1041x711 mm, 41x28 3/4 inches. 1994.

Founded in 1991, Benetton's magazine, Colors openly courted controversy and didn't shy away from social, politcal or sexual topics. It's 7th issue focussed on the Aids epidemic, and featured a fake obituary of former President Ronald Reagan, sarcastically comending him for his 'quick and decisive response to the AIDS epidemic early in his presidency.'
