"The Irish Hunger Memorial (which takes its name from the Irish term for the famine of 1845-52, "An Gorta Mor," The Great Hunger) stands on a half-acre site at the corner of Vesey Street and North End Avenue in Battery Park City, between the Embassy Suites Hotel and the Hudson River. The 96' x 170' Memorial, which contains stones from each of Ireland's 32 counties, is elevated on a limestone plinth. Along the base are bands of texts separated by layers of imported Kilkenny limestone. The limestone is more than 300 million years old and contains fossils from the ancient Irish seabed. The text, which combines the history of the Great Famine with contemporary reports on world hunger, is cast as shadow onto illuminated frosted glass panels. From its eastern approach the Memorial appears as a sloping landscape with a pathway inviting visitors to walk upward past a ruined fieldstone cottage and stone walls toward a pilgrim's standing stone. At the western end of the Memorial, 25 feet above the pavement, a cantilevered overlook offers views of the Statue of Liberty and Ellis Island, emblems of America's welcome to the Irish and to all immigrant people." nyc.com
A true fresco -- painted directly onto wet plaster in 1933 -- Hunger March looks like a collage of newspaper photos featuring black and white Americans sleeping on floors, marching, and being beaten by police during Depression-era protests. The artist, Lewis Rubenstein, had recently graduated from Harvard, He painted it on a wall of the very museum it's displayed in, Harvard's Fogg Museum. The Fogg was recently rebuilt and reconfigured as the Harvard Art Museums. During construction the wall the fresco was painted on was taken down and then re-installed -- including the original I-beam it had been positioned under.

Kochi, Kerala, India.
This is a re-edit of a previously posted photo from my travels in India. I have an exhibition coming up and wanted a fresh approach to this shot.
This elderly man stood outside a church in Kochi. He asked me for some money and I asked him if I could take his picture. He looked like he was in pain so I asked him about it and he replied, "No pain, just hungry."
It's something to think about.
View large on black highly recommended.
This memorial is off to the side, in a park, right before the Lavra. The enormous candle, decorated with wooden lace, stands in memory of the millions of people who died in the Holodomor --the Terror Famine.
Stalin and his Soviet government want to collectivise the farms --especially in the fertile steppes of Ukraine. To force this collectivisation, he basically made owning food illegal. Watchtowers sprung up in wheat fields to monitor peasants as they worked. In the years 1932-33 the population declined substantially --conservative estimates say over 1.5 million, but the number is probably bigger.
It is suggested that this was done for not just for ideological purposes, but for political and financial gain. The Cossacks and the vast array of ethnic groups (some of my own family among them) were resisting the Soviet vice that was squeezing them. Hunger, even death, would force the Ukranian population into embracing the Soviet plan. At the same time, Stalin flooded the foreign markets with Ukrainian grain and shunned all offers of help to feed the starving people.
Terrible stories have emerged from the time of Holodomor: people digging up the bones of dead and decaying animals and even resorting to cannibalism.
The memorial entrance is flanked by two angels. The young girl, holding five symbolic wheat heads, and surrounded by grindstones, precedes the candle memorial. We visited the memorial several times. On the second day, at the girl's feet. were red roses and small breads.
The memorial itself is over a museum to commemorate the Holodomor. Outside there are 3 plaques to remember the three famines. The first, 1921-22 was the famine that pushed my own family to Canada. Some stayed. My Great Aunt Emma and her family would have lived through that terrible time as possibly would have my Great Aunt Lydia.
City College staff, from all departments, joined Farmshare of America and Strike Out Hunger Food Drive in Alachua County to make a difference this holiday season. Over 800 families received an estimated 20 pounds of perishable and non-perishable food items. Great Job!!!
