Frank C. Moore II (June 22, 1953 – April 21, 2002) was a New  York-based painter, winner of the Logan Medal of the Arts, and a
member of the Visual AIDS Artist Caucus - the organization responsible  for the (Red) Ribbon Project, A Day Without Art, and A Night Without  Light.  Frank Moore was born in Manhattan in 1953, then moved with his family  to Long Island, N.Y., first to Great Neck, and then to Roslyn, where  he first attended Roslyn Junior High School. He graduated from Roslyn  High School in 1971, where he had been active in student politics and  served as class president. Moore's work was selected for display for  years in the high school halls. They were eventually removed during a  renovation and subsequently lost. He attended Yale, where he graduated  summa cum laude in 1975, and he studied at the Cité internationale des  arts in Paris from 1977 to 1979. His art began appearing in group  exhibitions in 1979, as he worked as a set designer for modern dance  choreographer Jim Self in Manhattan. Deeply indebted to Surrealism, Moore's paintings frequently depict dream scenarios and futuristic  landscapes, often with environmental sub-texts (in a picture-postcard  Niagara Falls, chemical signatures of pollutants drift in the mist),  or references to AIDS (in Viral Romance, 1992, a reversed bouquet  blooms human immunodeficiency virus). His political stance was broad  and nuanced with homoerotic imagery. He died of AIDS on April 21,  2002, aged 48. Late in 2012, the double exhibition Toxic Beauty,  comprising the most comprehensive review of Moore's work, was on view  at New York University.  His sister Rebecca Moore completed his work  setting up the Gesso Foundation for artists after his death.
