Now celebrating 30 years in Boston, Mobius once again has a home for the Mobius Artists Group, its collaborators and guest artists and curators. The space is part of the ArtBlock development (initiated by the Boston Redevelopment Authority and developed by New Atlantic Development) comprising the Joshua Bates Art Center and newly constructed artist live-work spaces and condominiums. Mobius is delighted to be part of this established and growing arts community and proud to be a new member of the vibrant South End of Boston.

 
   
The Human Cost of War
Joanne Rice (MAG)
Oct 7, 2007 to Oct 6, 2009
Noon every day for two years
Trinity Church, Copley Square Boston

Joanne will bring 100 small stones to a site by Trinity Church, Boston (Copley Square) on a daily basis at noon, starting Sunday, October 7, and designed to continue for two years. The stones will ideally accumulate at the site and eventually number over 70,000 if the site goes undisturbed. Joanne Rice asks, 'What is the human cost of war? I hear the numbers and think: my brother, my sister, my mother, my father . . . The action remembers the daily toll of war.' The site is on a grassy area at the corner of Boylston and Clarendon Streets by the Trinity Church sign.

From Trinity Church: "To be the host for this art action was a natural choice for Trinity Church. As a parish, we pray for peace for all people. And as our landmark building demonstrates, we have long history of supporting innovative forms of artistic expression."
