On May 12, North Carolina-based artist Joe Bigley left Ground Zero and has biked the length and shape of the border of Afghanistan within the U.S. as a way to commemorate the tenth anniversary of the war and to engage in a dialogue with the public about the war. Joe has traveled over 3,500 miles in ten weeks. He will show photographs, images of how the public views the war. Following his presentation, the audience will be invited to contribute to the project by offering New Yorkers’ perspectives on the war and the effects of 9/11.
Joe calls his project “Traversing a Foreign Border Domestically.” You can learn more about it at:
