NYPH09: Tim Hetherington Interview
As promised, Ronit has scored an awesome interview with Tim Hetherington.
There were several artists who showed solidly at the festival (many of whom we will talk about in the next few days: our posts-per-day ratio will go down but we’ve got lots of material in the vault for short and long term projects so keep checking back), but it’s fitting to celebrate the end of NYPH09 with Tim Hetherington. You’ve already heard Tim’s talk (posted by WTJ?), seen a bit of the video installation, but here is the Sleeping Soldiers series that showed (as stills) as part of Jon Levy’s Home for Good exhibit at NYPH09.
