This panel focuses on artists’ insights into the practice of art in the wake of the September 11th attacks. Artists have a special contribution to make regarding the concerns of people in the aftermath of the disaster. They offer new ideas for reassembling the fragments. Do the arts play a different role in times of peace and tranquility than in times of crisis? Do audiences view works differently during these times? Wendy Perron has collected an invigorating panel of artists, activists, performers, and writers to tackle these questions.
