Robert X. Fogarty, creator of the “Dear World” message-on-skin portrait series, photographed several runners who sustained injuries from the attack at the finish line with messages of hope and resilience on their bodies.
Brain Fox, a Fall River artist, honored the survivors with a painting. The piece, entitled “Endurance,” was hung at the Spaulding Rehab Center in Boston, where many of the victims received treatment.
Edward Mulholland, a professor of Classical Languages at Benedictine College, penned a tribute to Martin Richard, the 8-year-old boy killed by the bombings. Mulholland’s poem, The New Pheidippides, published a week after the attack by the National Catholic Register, appears below:
