Art As Prayer
In Spring 2001, IAM sponsored a group exhibition at The Cooper Union gallery, curated by Tim Rollins, Makoto Fujimura and James Romaine. The exhibition, titled Art as Prayer, included the work of noted artists Joseph Beuys, Felix Gonzalez-Torres, Sigmar Polke, Tobi Kahn, Tom Roma, James Elaine, Tim Rollins, K.O.S. and Fujimura . . . among others.
In conjunction with this important exhibition, IAM (in partnership with The Center of Faith and Art) published an Art as Prayer booklet, including an essay by James Romaine and interviews with Tim Rollins and Fujimura.
TriBeCa Temporary Gallery
After September 11th, 2001, IAM responded to the catastrophe by creating TriBeCa Temporary space near "Ground Zero."
At TriBeCa Temporary Gallery, we desire and create - for six months, an oasis of collaboration by local "ground zero" artists in hope of planting a seed of restoration for the downtown community. This temporary gallery will focus on local artists with multinational backgrounds who have been directly affected by the WTC catastrophe. This is a not-for-profit gallery intended for collaboration and community development of "Post-911" language for art.
