Post-traumatic sustenance
Behind the scenes
'I think that art can add to the healing of a city in a post-catastrophe environment...'
'...by simply maintaining some of the central principles of artistic practice and by emphasising the central role that the aesthetic dimension has in our lives. In a post-traumatic situation, the sensory richness of art can sustain people through all the draining and wearying tasks that go along with rebuilding a city.'
Dan Cameron, director of Prospect New Orleans, interviewed about the place of art in a post-disaster environment, in our new 'quake' issue of Bulletin.
