Learning how to fall

art and culture after September 11

"Beginning with Richard Drew's controversial photograph of a man falling from the North Tower of the World Trade Center on Sept. 11, Learning How to Fall investigates the changing relationship between world events and their subsequent documentation, asking: does the mediatization of the event overwhelm the fact of the event itself? How does the mode by which information is disseminated alter the way in which we perceive such information? How does this impact upon our memory of an event? T. Nikki Cesare Schotzko posits contemporary art and performance not only as stylized re-envisioning of daily life, but inversely, as a viable means by which one might experience and process real-world political and social events."
