9-11 A Tribute in Light - 10

            Tribute in Light
September 11, 2015
âWe Will Never Forgetâ

From dusk on September, 11 to dawn the next day, two blue beams reach 4 miles into the sky as a symbol of remembrance for those who lost their lives on 9/11. The tribute was first lit six months after the Islamic Terrorist attacks of September, 11 2001, and has since been shown annually.

Since 2012, Tribute in Light has been presented by the 9/11 Memorial Museum. Comprising eighty-eight 7,000-watt xenon light bulbs positioned into two 48-foot squares that echo the shape and orientation of the Twin Towers, Tribute in Light is assembled each year on a roof near the World Trade Center site. The illuminated memorial reaches 4 miles into the sky and is the strongest shaft of light ever projected from earth into the night sky.

Several artists and designers who were brought together under the auspices of MAS and Creative Time independently conceived it. John Bennett, Gustavo Bonevardi, Richard Nash Gould, Julian Laverdiere and Paul Myoda designed the tribute with lighting consultant Paul Marantz. It was originally made possible by a grant from the Lower Manhattan Development Corporation and with the generous assistance of Con Edison.

"Freedom itself was attacked this morning by a faceless coward, and freedom will be defended.â ~ George W. Bush President of the United States of America
