Terror: Artists Respond marks the ten-year anniversary of the attacks on the Twin Towers and explores the range of psychological, social, and global ramifications of living in the age of terrorism. The work of American and Israeli artists includes photography, painting, installation, and objets d’art. The collection entire highlights the disquietude of life lived in the long shadow of terror. From Barry Frydlender’s disarticulated photographic architectures to Robert Kirschbaum’s epic abstractions, each piece offers a meditative counterpoint to news-ticker journalism’s quick and constant evocation of the last, current or imminent attack.

Presented by Artists 4 Israel and Industry City.

In collaboration with the Jewish Art Salon, Art Kibbutz NY and Mima’amakim.
