Published by Grey Art Gallery, New York University.
Foreword by Lynn Gumpert. Text by Klaus Kertess, Susan Harris, Gregg Bordowitz, Frank Moore.

Toxic Beauty: The Art of Frank Moore is the most comprehensive presentation of work by a remarkable artist whose life was cut short by AIDS. Frank Moore (1953–2002) is best known for his large, highly detailed figurative paintings filled with fantastic and symbolic images. This catalogue includes a complete bibliography, chronology and excerpts from Moore’s own writings. It also features more than 50 color images of Moore’s paintings and works on paper, as well as approximately 40 reproductions of previously unpublished archival material--such as sketchbooks and documents--culled from the vast Frank Moore Papers housed at New York University’s Fales Library. An essay by Klaus Kertess considers Moore’s recurrent themes, situating the artist within the vibrant downtown scene; a contribution by Gregg Bordowitz relates Moore’s works to his passionate AIDS activism; and a piece by Susan Harris addresses the artist’s working methods.

Frank Moore: Between Life & DeathFrank Moore: Between Life & Death

Published by Twin Palms Publishers.
Text by Robert Gluck.

In 1977, American artist Frank Moore (1953–2002) took a freighter from Montreal to Santander, Spain. He traveled through Spain, France and Morocco, finally settling in Paris, where he obtained a residency in the Cité des Arts. Upon his return to New York, Moore began a decade-long involvement with modern dance, theater, film and video that paralleled his development as a painter. The increasing devastation of the AIDS crisis through the eighties profoundly and irrevocably transformed his life and work. Moore's work was included in the 1995 Whitney Biennial and is included in the collections of the Whitney Museum, the Museum of Modern Art, New York and the Albright Knox Art Gallery.
