Nonuments

Lance Fung’s Nonuments Park is a part of the DC Commission on the Arts and Humanities’ citywide public arts initiative, The 5×5 Project. Nonuments, on view through October 6, 2014, is a temporary park that seeks to challenge understandings of the word “monument.” Nonuments invites the Southwest DC community to use the park as a space where the community can reflect on ideas, people, and personal struggles that are not the subjects of the traditional monuments that occupy DC.
