September 11th:

ART LOSS, DAMAGE, AND REPERCUSSIONS


Proceedings of an IFAR Symposium on
February 28, 2002

In commemoration of the twentieth anniversary of the terrible events of 9/11, IFAR has reposted the 8 talks from an IFAR Symposium, "September 11th: Art Loss, Damage, and Repercussions," which took place in New York City on February 28, 2002. The symposium was supported in part by a grant from The Liman Foundation and was undertaken by IFAR in response to the horrific tragedy. The proceedings were published in a special issue of IFAR Journal, Vol. 4, no. 4/Vol. 5, no. 1. (For an additional article, see also IFAR Journal, Vol. 4, no. 3, "September 11th and the Art World.") NB. At the time, the IFAR Journal was not in color. The reposting publishes all the art in color and provides the current locations for two of the damaged objects [Fritz Koenig's Sphere for Plaza Fountain, 1969 and Alexander Calder's WTC Stabile (Bent Propeller), 1971].
