Since 2006, Janet Hamlin has been the sole court artist covering the Guantanamo Bay tribunals, working initially with The Associated Press, and then freelancing with various media outlets which include The Toronto Star, CBC, CNN, to name a few.  These drawings are the only visual images of the detainees and as such, have been seen worldwide in every media format.

Readings
October 31-December 6, 2009
Curator: Stanford Kay
Books are in a unique class of objects that are mere bricks of paper and glue if unopened butwhich open into worlds of fact, experience, and imagination. To hold a book in one’s hand is to hold a world, a thought, a life. How we relate to books and what books we choose to opendefines us and the life we live. Stanford Kay and Buzz Spector have checked out the book, each in their way: as subject, object and material. A painter and photographer respectively, they focus on content and our relationship to it as object. The contents of these books are hidden from us, but they are repositories for thoughts, stories and experiences. The paintings and photographs that these artists produce are themselves similar vessels. Click here to read a review of this exhibit.
