The Facts
On September 14, 2026, Lisson Gallery announced the opening of 'Ground Zero 360 – Remembrance' at the New York City Fire Museum, marking 25 years since the September 11, 2001 attacks on the World Trade Center. Organized in collaboration with Ground Zero 360, the exhibition brings together works by 19 artists, including Sean Scully, Jeff Koons, Jasper Johns, Jenny Saville, James Turrell, Thomas Ruff, Kara Walker, Yoko Ono, Maggi Hambling, James Surls, Sedrick Huckaby, Bono, Brian Maguire, Antonio López García, Luis Gordillo, Eamon Colman, and Nicola McClean. Scully's painting 'Roof Tower' (2025) is featured, reflecting his abstract exploration of grief, recovery, and rebuilding through bands and fields of color.
The Signal
The exhibition signals a continued institutional and market interest in commemorative group shows that bridge fine art and public history, particularly around the 25th anniversary of 9/11. For collectors, the inclusion of blue-chip names like Koons, Johns, and Turrell alongside Scully and emerging voices underscores the event's curatorial ambition and potential to draw broad attention. The collaboration between a commercial gallery (Lisson) and a museum (New York City Fire Museum) also highlights a growing trend of galleries engaging with non-traditional venues for historically resonant projects.
