Taraneh Hemami: Most Wanted
Open for Interpretation
By Nirmala Nataraj (05/17/2007)

" Walking up the stairs to the Intersection for the Arts gallery, potential spectators might be somewhat bewildered at the sight that greets them; coating the steps is a sheet of white felt, covered with ostensibly Persian names, in dispassionate block letters. Among the more obscure appellations, one can pick out “Saddam” and “Osama” almost instantly, as the eye’s natural tendency is to wander to what’s recognizable and fill it out with familiar meaning. In some ways, you can say that’s the very crux of Taraneh Hemami’s collection of installation work, "Most Wanted". "

War and the Persistence of Memory
By Nirmala Nataraj (06/01/2006)

" By now, the rupture between history and its present depiction is par for the course in contemporary art -- but Binh Danh and Elizabeth Moy go at it one further in their haunting menagerie of images culled from personal legacies of war and reflections on the abiding effects of human conflict. In a collaborative exhibition entitled Disrupted: A Photographic Installation About Memory, History & War, Danh and Moy string together narratives retrieved and woven anew from both original photographs and archival images of the Vietnam War.
