INFINITY CITY: ANNIVERSARY
Handlist of the Exhibition


This exhibition commemorates the fiftieth anniversary of the Atomic Bomb. Its three-part foundation represents the development of the bomb (Tricity Trinity), its deployment (Eternity Ignored), and the destruction it wrought (Target Japan). INFINITY CITY can be seen as the culmination of these events--that place on the planet where each of us now lives, downwind from Ground Zero.
