The World Trade Center was designed by Monoru Yamasaki, the acme of
his career. When his earlier Pruitt-Igoe high rises were demolished in
1975, the event was said to have marked the death of Modernism.

Where are we now, and what do these times mean for modern art? Because
this moment is a turning point -- things might clamp down tighter as
the War on Terrorism gets up there with the War on Drugs and all the
other Wars that can't be won. Richard A. Gephardt (D-Mo) said, "We're
not going to have all the openness and freedom we have had."

Good news is that the net library Ibiblio is interested in helping out
linart by giving free web resources: http://www.ibiblio.org/faq/ lists
what they provide. First thing that came to mind was a gallery or
repository for free art projects. As Sunsite they were one of the
first big Linux repositories and now they've got many more free/open
source collections, including the Open Book Project:
