Human Resources takes into account elements of human exchange that many LMCC resident artists have explored while working downtown. Selected artworks recall David Rockefeller’s founding of the Lower Manhattan Cultural Council shortly after the Twin Towers were built, when the council’s initial purpose was to humanize the architecture of the World Trade Center Plaza that many area workers found intimidating.
