Memory Remains

Start Date:	26th August 2011
End Date:	26th February 2012

The empty shell of Hangar 17 at JFK Airport became a storehouse of memories when it was filled with the material cleared from the World Trade Center site following the September 11 attacks on New York City.

Marking the tenth anniversary of the attacks, these photographs by Francesc Torres explore inside the hangar and capture the emotional power of what remained, from personal belongings to steel girders distorted by the force of the attacks.

Memory Remains is presented in cooperation with the National September 11 Memorial & Museum and the International Center of Photography, in association with the Port Authority of New York & New Jersey. Original funding for Memory Remains was provided by Paul J. Napoli & Marc J. Bern-Napoli Bern LLP, the National Endowment for the Arts, the Institut Ramon Llull, and the Government of Spain—Ministry of Culture.
