How can reproductions replace the fundamental contribution of the originals? How does the growing demand for antique cultural treasures impact preservation and protection? How does private ownership relate to common property in terms of U.N. standards? Alexander Nagel moderated the discussion.

- On June 12, 2015, artist Alketa Xhafa Mripa displayed five thousand dresses in the soccer stadium of Pristina, Kosovo in an installation entitled “Thinking of You”, to honor the survivors of sexual violence during the 1998-99 war, break the silence, and shed light on these brutal crimes, largely ignored since the war. The art installation, “Thinking of You,” was made possible by the survivors, activists and other women who donated dresses, and was sponsored by President Atifete Jahjaga. The documentary The Making of #MendojPërTy/ #ThinkingOfYou, produced by Anna Di Lellio and Fitim Shala, is the story of how art and activism can change the culture of isolation, resignation and shame that surrounds wartime sexual violence. The Embassy of Kosovo to the United States, the Women’s Foreign Policy Group, and NYU Washington, DC presented a very special documentary screening and discussion with Her Excellency Atifete Jahjaga, President of the Republic of Kosovo, Vlora Çitaku, Ambas...

The digital media made available to audiences globally demonstrate a new dimension of immediacy of crime and ostentation.

- Description
- In Tehran in 1961, the young Parviz Tanavoli—part of the saqqakhaneh group of artists drawing on Iranian religious and cultural imagery to create modernist, often abstract works—met art collector Abby Weed Grey, who arranged for him to serve as artist-in-residence at the Minneapolis College of Art and Design near her home in St. Paul. The two became friends, and in 1964, Grey helped Tanavoli, then teaching at the University of Tehran, set up Iran's first bronze foundry there. Grey went on to purchase 80 of Tanavoli's works, which often incorporate mixed media and found materials, and Tanavoli helped her build the collection of modern Iranian work now held at NYU's Grey Art Gallery, which she founded in 1975. The Grey now holds more of Tanavoli's work than any other institution in the world. Widely regarded as Iran's foremost living sculptor, Tanavoli is one of the half-dozen artists featured in the Grey's exhibition "Global/Local: Six Artists From Iran," which runs through April 2,...

- The National Mall is a national treasure that plays a central role in the life of the D.C. community and the nation. While the historic 1791 L’Enfant Plan and later enhancements of the 1902 McMillan Plan established a visionary program for developing this public space for the nation’s capital, subsequent fragmented government oversight and piecemeal planning continues to undermine the development of a coherent and environmentally sustainable program. This panel of activists, policy makers, architects, and urban designers discussed the challenges today in rising above jurisdictional interests and creating a discerning plan for the Mall that advances an effective creative vision for the 21st century.

In advance of the IACHR hearing, a coalition of human rights groups from the U.S. and Latin America held a public event at NYU Washington, DC, addressing the need for transparency and accountability for the CIA torture and secret detention program. What does U.S. failure to act in the face of well-documented acts of torture mean to global human rights and what are the consequences for endorsing impunity? What lessons could be learned from the Latin American experience in the search for truth and justice and ensuring non-repetition of torture and enforced disappearances?

- The international community is currently negotiating a deal with Iran on its nuclear program. Under a potential deal, Iran would put significant limitations on its nuclear program in exchange for sanctions relief from the international community. But the detail and effects of any potential agreement are far from simple. Iran’s regional rivals, who are core U.S. partners in the Middle East, are deeply concerned about how a deal will change regional power dynamics. There are also questions about economic competition, particularly in energy markets in the aftermath of a nuclear deal. And there are many questions about how the United States and the European Union would be able to re-impose their punishing economic sanctions in the event that Iran does not adhere to a deal. To address these questions, the Center for a New American Security and the Center on Law and Security at NYU School of Law convened a high level forum of Middle East and sanctions experts to discuss Iran and the future...
