I have been researching this and thought I'd share the results thus
far with arlis-l in case anyone else is interested. We had a docent
ask because of the destruction of the Calder stabile "Three Red Wings"
(JAM owns a Calder mobile).

The National Public Radio website has articles in the section "America
Responds--
The Home Front" (http://www.npr.org/news/specials/response/home_front/
under "Lost Art," and you can also listen to the interviews there.

If you are interested in the Calder stabile, "Three Red Wings," there is a
photo
of it as it was at its site at 7WTC at:

I hope others will find this useful, and I am interested in knowing about
other
articles too.

Subject: ART AND WTC ATTACK
Hi All,
Does anyone know of any articles about the destruction of art in the World
Trade Center and public art in lower Manhattan other than
Herbert Muschamp's essay from the NY Times 10.14.01?
I am also trying to find an article from the Miami Herald about public art
that was destroyed and missing artists. The article is from 9.17.01. (I
have the very short abstract from Lexis-Nexis.)
Ciao,
Alison
