Description of Pictures: Beyond Granite: Global Approaches to Public Art, Placemaking, and National Commemoration:
Are temporary works of public art as memorable and powerful as permanent ones? A renowned panel of experts -- including Julian Laverdiere (designer of the World Trade Center Tower’s Tribute in Light), Krzysztof Wodiczko (Harvard professor and artist with a specialty in temporary light installations), and Justine Simons (curator, London’s Fourth Plinth in Trafalgar Square) -- examines this question. Moderated by Thomas Luebke, secretary, U.S. Commission of Fine Arts.

I love well-behaved spiders! They are, in fact, how most people find my site. Unfortunately, my network has a limited bandwidth and pictures take up bandwidth. Spiders ask for lots and lots of pages and chew up lots and lots of bandwidth which slows things down considerably for regular folk. To counter this, you'll see all the text on the page but the images are being suppressed. Also, some system options like merges are being blocked for you.
Note: Permission is NOT granted for spiders, robots, etc to use the site for AI-generation purposes. I'm sure you're thrilled by your ability to make revenue from my work but there's nothing in that for my human users or for me.
If you are in fact human, please email me at guthrie.bruce@gmail.com and I can check if your designation was made in error. Given your number of hits, that's unlikely but what the hell.
