ESCAPE / visualAIDS redux

It's been almost a year since the conclusion of the official ESCAPE program, and recently I was able to revisit the curatorial premise during research in New York City and curate a web gallery for Visual AIDS:

"Every month, Visual AIDS invites guest curators, drawn from both the arts and AIDS communities, to select several works from the Frank Moore Archive Project. To start off 2011, J.J. Kegan McFadden curated an Escape, featuring the artwork of Archive Members; Rene Capone, Jose Luis Cortes, Edgard Guanipa, Jerry Hooten, Marc Lida, Edward Lightner, Elliott Linwood, Humberto Moreno, Mark Morrisroe, Luna Luis Ortiz, J. Robert Reed, Richard Sawdon Smith, Clifford Smith, Hugh Steers, Sam Tan, Tseng Kwong Chi, TRET, Jorge Veras, Bruce Volpone, and Joel Wateres."

I owe a special THANKS to Amy & Nelson @ Visual AIDS for being so welcoming during my brief stay. Thanks you two!
