In conjunction with the current exhibition, iraqimemorial.org, project 
director and exhibition curator Joseph DeLappe will lead a panel 
discussion with jurors Yaelle Amir and Raul Zamudio, and artists Wafaa 
Bilal, Matt Kenyon and Sayoko Yoshida. A wide-ranging discussion will 
ensue regarding the efficacy of the conceptualization and realization of 
contemporary memorials, monuments and counter-monuments to the victims 
of war. How do we critically assess the effect of a project such as 
iraqimemorial.org? What are the pitfalls and possibilities of developing 
DIY memorial projects?
