Just to fill you in, Lifeball is a non-profit organisation situated in Vienna, Austria. It was found in 1992 by Gery Keszler and Dr. Torgom Petrosian with the aim to raise funds for the much needed support of people who are HIV positive or living with AIDS. For this year, it is The 17th Lifeball. Unfortunately, the event has already passed by, but we are still able to donate to this project!! You just simply go to Lifeball and contact them.
Now let’s come back to these fantastic images. They are style ticket for the event. The images were shot by one of the most famous photographers, Andreas H. Bitesnich in collaboration with Markus Morianz. The theme is called Let Love Flow! As you see, it is about the metaphor of water and really beautiful, aren’t they?

AIDS is really scary and it seems to be an issue that has been largely overlooked in times of late. Today is The World Aids Day. It is our concern that HIV is such a big risk to anyone of us. So, please use condom while you have sex next time. Here’re some ad campaigns in which we have collected from internet. The first one is a campaign against AIDS targeting young gay men, “Do whatever you want, but do it with a condom.” by The Brazilian government.
Move along, this is the World AIDS Day Message from UNAIDS Executive Director Dr Peter Piot.
This is a print ad : Fall from Luxembourg by Ministère de la Santé. This ad photographed by Marcel Veelo incorporated with Art Director: Samy Guenane, and retouching by Glûcone

A nice campaign from Switzerland for AIDS and safe sex!. The campaign is called Love Life Stop AIDs and its slogan is “No Action Without Protection”. Anyway, there aren’t only handsome and sexy models in this campaign, but the advertisement itself is also wonderfully creative. You think ? Let’s visit Love Life today, shall we ?
