The Stranger

(SCULPTURE) Tied-up, starving, suffering Iraqis made of salt and melting away before your eyes in the rain in a public square: not the Bush administration's idea of a good 9/11 memorial. Michael Magrath (who devised a salt-based material for casting his life-sized figures) and a team of helpers will deposit the sculptures (based on news photographs of Iraqi men and boys) in Occidental Square early this morning. Given there's rain, the Iraqis will begin to disintegrate. (Occidental Square, Occidental Ave S and S Main St, free.) by Jen Graves
