The events of the morning of Sept. 11 have been replayed so often – on TV and in our minds – that they are now part of our nation's collective folklore. Less widely documented, and less understood, are the events at the attack sites in the following days and months. Photographer JOEL MEYEROWITZ's book Aftermath provides the most complete, and most chilling, visual document of Ground Zero's transformation from funeral pyre to sanitary construction. He signs copies of Aftermath Sat., Nov. 17, at Jackson Fine Art, which is also hosting Between the City and the Sea, a retrospective of his large-format photographs taken on Cape Cod continuing Tues., NOV. 20, and through Jan. 5. Free. Opening reception: Fri., 6-8 p.m.; Book signing: Sat., 11 a.m.; Exhibit: Tues.-Sat., 10 a.m.-5 p.m. Jackson Fine Art, 3115 E. Shadowlawn Ave. 404-233-3739. www.jacksonfineart.com.
Note: Read visual arts critic Felicia Feaster's review of Meyerowitz's exhibition at Jackson Fine Art.
