I think artists can get away from it if they are lefty /socially progressive/ show a hate on for the Untied States. Otherwise, as the Germans woudl say, it's verboten. Using the German world is good as many Canadian artists have a huge hate on for the States- resulting in hate based Canadian nationalism- a very dangerous thing.
Actually, the lamest 9/11 art is based on hate-ons for the United States. Or, for that matter, on art-schoolish "lookit me! I'm daring".
The best of it is cathartic, abject reflection on society and on self--no different from the best "Holocaust art".
I still contend 9/11 was the most important aesthetic experience of our time--but that's not quite the same as calling it some kind of artistic masterwork...
