个人简介
My work on slavery and its representation in public monuments made me interested more generally in issues of traumatic memory. In the wake of 9-11, these issues came to the forefront in a new way and demanded reconsideration in historical terms. I trace the historical trajectory and philosophical dilemmas of the “therapeutic memorial” – with special attention given to the Vietnam Veterans Memorial, the Oklahoma City National Memorial, and the World Trade Center competition – in a recent essay in Terror, Culture, Politics: Rethinking 9/11, ed. Daniel Sherman and Terry Nardin (Bloomington: University of Indiana Press, 2006), 103-120.
More recently I have broadened my focus beyond the standard 3-D arts of sculpture and architecture to the more encompassing notion of landscape, conceived aesthetically, politically, psychologically, and ecologically. My current book, Monument Wars: Washington, D.C., the National Mall, and the Transformation of the Memorial Landscape, published in Fall 2009 by the University of California Press, reconsiders the key public monuments and spaces of the capital within a narrative of nation building, spatial conquest, ecological destructiveness, and psychological trauma.
Recent projects include essays on Krzysztof Wodiczko’s proposed memorial for September 11, on the Shevchenko Memorial in Washington, D.C., and on John Rogers’ sculpture of the Civil War and Reconstruction.
