The last day to see “Rendering the Unthinkable,” an exhibition of artwork by 13 artists and their reactions to the events of 9/11, will be Sunday, Jan. 21, 2017.

Ranging in media from paintings and sculpture to works on paper and video, the artwork on view shows the struggle and confusion as the artists attempted to make sense of the unfathomable destruction and loss of innocent life witnessed that day.
