Summary
"We are living on a star takes its title from a tapestry by Hannah Ryggen that hung in the government building known as 'the High-rise' until July 22, 2011. The explosion that took place that day left the tapestry with a gash in the lower portion. The artists and writers participating in We Are Living on a Star contend with a range of issues relating to history, contemporaneity, normality, and expression. The result is an open and inquiring look at our own time."
