Ground Zero 360 Rememberence 

A Major Irish-Led Exhibition Commemorating the 25th Anniversary of September 11

 

September 11 2026 - March 31 2027

 

An extraordinary Irish-led international exhibition commemorating the 25th anniversary of the September 11 terrorist attacks will open at the New York City Fire Museum in Lower Manhattan this September.


Ground Zero 360 Remembrance has been created by Irish artist Nicola McClean and retired NYPD Inspector Paul McCormack, founders of Ground Zero 360, the internationally recognised not-for-profit organisation dedicated to preserving the memory of those who lost their lives on September 11, 2001, while honouring the survivors, first responders and families forever affected by the attacks.

 

Internationally acclaimed artists represented include Jasper Johns, Jeff Koons, James Turrell, Jenny Saville, Maggi Hambling, Antonio Lopez, Thomas Ruff, Yoko Ono, Sedrick Huckaby, Michael Cusack and Kara Walker, alongside an outstanding representation of Ireland's artistic community. 

 

Irish artists participating include Sean Scully, Brian Maguire, Guggi, Robert Ballagh, Eamon Colman, Nicola McClean, Bono, Richard Hearns, Sean Molloy, The Edge, Paul MacCormaic, Donald Teskey, Gordon Harris, Gary Robinson, Maurice Quillinan, Geraldine O'Neill, Geraldine O'Reilly, Sinéad Ní Maonaigh, Bennie Reilly and Stephen Lawlor, highlighting Ireland's remarkable contribution to this international act of remembrance.


The exhibition reflects the enduring bond between Ireland and New York, a relationship strengthened by generations of Irish emigrants, the service of Irish-Americans within the New York Fire Department and New York Police Department, and the profound impact the events of September 11 had on communities across Ireland.
