MEMORY, ATROCITY, and RESISTANCE
Welcome to a special exhibition of
the COLLECTED VISIONS GALLERY

The contributions below are from a workshop CREATING CULTURAL MEMORY ON THE WEB conducted by Lorie Novak at the annual conference of the HEMISPHERIC INSTITUTE OF PERFORMANCE AND POLITICS in Monterrey, Mexico, June 2001. Participants brought family photographs with them or used a digital camera during the workshop to create the images for their essays. The background images on this page are excerpts from various performances at the conference.
