Frank Holliday at the Dalton School
Frank Holliday is a painter who became known in the New York art world in the 1970s and 1980s and is often associated with the East Village scene and associated with Club 57. His early career as a artist included working with Andy Warhol and close associations with artists such as Keith Haring, Ann Magnuson, Kenny Scharf, et al. The Dalton School at 108 East 89th Street, originally the Children's University School, is a private, coeducational college Preparatory school on New York's Upper East Side.
Frank Jump at the Neuberger Museum
In 1986, when Frank Jump was 26 years old, he was diagnosed as HIV positive. It was a time when doctors still knew little of the disease. They estimated Jump only had a few years left to live. In 1997, he “discovered” an ad for Omega Oil, a cure-all tonic, painted on the side of a New York City building. It was the beginning of a quest to photograph old ads painted or glued to the sides of city buildings, ads he views as relics of New York’s past. The quest has consumed Jump ever since. The Neuberger Museum is located in Purchase, 735 Anderson Hill Road, New York and is affiliated with SUNY College at Purchase.
