Today is the 9th anniversary of September 11, 2001. This message is sent out to you as we honor the countless lives lost to fear and violence since that tragic morning in New York. The organization of Twin Towers Go Global (TTGG), the artist run platform of AND AND AND, and the director and staff of dOCUMENTA(13) have chosen this symbolic day to launch a series of three special 9/11 anniversary reports (2010, 2011, 2012). Like all other projects in the AND AND AND series, these reports are part of dOCUMENTA(13).

After I recently accepted the challenge of serving as one of several artistic advisors to the Architecture and Engineering Committee of TTGG, and having already been in conversations for a few weeks with the AND AND AND platform, I proposed to both parties that we collaborate on a series of reports updating our various lists and networks on the yearly developments of the TTGG’s International Memorial Reconstruction, a monumental project that consists of the building of exact replicas of New York’s Twin Towers in different cities around the world.

You can here read my public acceptance as advisor to the TTGG’s Artists & Scholars Reinvent World Trade Program:
