AND AND AND / Event 9 / Twin Towers Go Global & Pedro Lasch / Second Anniversary Report: The Open Call / September 11, 2011
AND AND AND is an artist run initiative, which will use the time between now and dOCUMENTA (13) in 2012 to consider with individuals and groups across the world the role art and culture can play today and the constituent publics or communities which could be addressed. The series of interventions, situations, and occurrences entitled AND AND AND are part of dOCUMENTA (13) and will compose a map of emergent positions, concerns, and possible points of solidarity

For the ninth event, AND AND AND is presenting the second intervention by US-based Mexican artist Pedro Lasch. For the AND AND AND series, Lasch is creating three special 9/11 anniversary reports (2010, 2011, 2012), all of them related to the Twin Towers Go Global (TTGG) initiative. This Second Report focuses on the TTGG's recent “Open Call”, a competition where people were invited to imagine the Twin Towers rebuilt around the world. Almost sixty proposals were submitted between July 31 and September 2, 2011. Five winners were selected by a specialized jury, and another five through an international public vote. The ten finalists were initially announced at the opening reception of Lasch's Phantom Limbs exhibition in New York (September 7 – October 9, 2011), and they are now shared through this international public announcement: 1. Roman Reyna for Dallas, 2. Margaret Donovan, 3. Kyong Park, 4. Mirwais Hotak, 5. Gareth Roberts, 6. Bosch Fawstin, 7. Joyce Green, 8. Joe Compean, 9. Al-Ahram Weekly's 'Ossama', 10. Silvia Maglioni & Graeme Thomson. All of these proposals are featured in detail in the attached PDF report – Find the full report by Lasch and the results of the TTGG competition at this link.
