OUT
OF THE ASHES: CREATIVE RESPONSES TO 11.9.01 AND SUBSEQUENT
EVENTS
9-29th May at Patriothall, Hamilton Place, Edinburgh.
In the wake of the events of 11th September 2001, many
people, including those who do not think of themselves
as artists or writers, have turned to poetry and art
to express their deep feelings. As part of the Arte
Gras Festival in May 2002, ARTESIAN held an exhibition
of work that arose out of the ashes of the World Trade
Centre, and the "War on Terrorism".
The
exhibition included improvised drama and poetry with
Lee Gershuny, Founder and Artistic Director of The Elements'
"Theatre of Being", and Findhorn Playback
Theatre.
In
comments from the Visitors' Book the most frequently
used adjectives were: Moving, Powerful, Intense.
