New York City is eternally evolving. From its iconic skyline to its side alleys, the new is perpetually being built on the debris of the past.<\/p>\n

Fading ads are a beacon in the navigation of an urban life.They weave together the city\u2019s unique history, culture, environment and society and tell the stories of the businesses, places and people whose lives transpired among them \u2013 the story of New York itself.\u00a0Of the thousands of ads photographed, many have faded out of existence, been covered over or destroyed. But still many silently cling to the walls of buildings, barely noticed by the rushing passersby.<\/p>\n

Quickly, this effort became a metaphor for survival since, like Jump himself, many of these ads had long outlived their expected life span. Although this campaign doesn\u2019t deal directly with HIV\/AIDS<\/span>, it is no accident that he chose to document such a transitory and evanescent subject.<\/p>\n

Frank H. Jump is a New York City artist and educator. Jump\u2019s first major photo-exhibition ran at the New-York Historical Society from August to November of 1998.\u00a0In the mid-2000\u2019s, Jump and partner Aiosa opened the Fading Ad Gallery in Brooklyn where Jump\u2019s photography was on display.\u00a0Jump continues his documentation of these remnants of early advertising with the acclaimed Fading Ad Blog, a daily photo-blog featuring images he and Aiosa have taken of ads worldwide as well as the work of other fellow urban archaeologists.<\/p>\n

These programs are supported by public funds form the\u00a0<\/span>NYC\u00a0<\/span>Department of Cultural Affairs and\u00a0<\/span>NYC<\/span>\u00a0Council Member Peter Vallone, Jr. Additional support provided by the membership of the Greater Astoria Historical Society.<\/span><\/p>\n
