> November 2001
> We are living in a historical moment. The essence of life has
changed.
> The world's psyche has been irrevocably altered.
>
> In this new era, Exit Art, as a cultural space near the World
Trade Center, feels an
> obligation to interpret or translate the feelings of a larger
community
> into a collective expression of analysis. We want to know how
the events
> of September 11 have altered your behavior -- toward others,
your city,
> your daily life -- how the events changed your perception of
reality
> and the world around you.
>
> A change of behavior is a change of culture, which is why Exit
Art is organizing a global
> project called *REACTIONS*. This project aims to be an
international
> response from both inside and outside the art world, a
reflection of
> how these events have changed your life.
>
> *We want to hear and share your reactions.*
>
> We are inviting you to participate in *REACTIONS* by submitting
your response on

*REACTIONS*
> will be an exhibition on view at Exit Art in New York City from
January
> 12 - March 30, 2002. All responses will be exhibited.
>
> Your visual and poetic work will be put into a context of
historical witness. We hope
> that like us, you feel a sense of urgency to respond and
participate
> in this necessary, collective expression.
