Product Description
Synopsis
Soon after the attacks of September 11, artist Jean Hollabird started to record the wreckage visible from the perimeter of Ground Zero, determined to chronicle the results. This work is a collection of watercolour paintings accompanied by poetic fragments from works by great names in literature. The poetry and prose speak powerfully of loss and bereavement, survival and defiance, disbelief and acceptance, as well as the author's love of her native New York City.

5.0 out of 5 stars
With emotional and commemorative watercolor paintings, 6 Oct 2002
By Midwest Book Review - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: Out of the Ruins: a New York Record: Lower Manhattan Autumn 2001 (Hardcover)
Compiled and edited by Jean Holabird, Out Of The Ruins: A New York Record is a unique memorial tribute to those who perished and to those who survived the tragic events of the September 11 attacks. Out Of The Ruins is filled from cover to cover with emotional and commemorative watercolor paintings (all of which are presented in vibrant full-color) capturing the cruelties of reality and the resplendence of hope in simple, memorable shapes and patterns. Lines of brief poetry accompany most of the watercolors, creating a profound, combined artistic event. Out Of The Ruins is very highly recommended as an unforgettable, bittersweet memorial volume.
