SUMMARY:Detroit as Resource: Reflections on the Art of a Post-Riot City
DESCRIPTION:Join us for a series of talks with artists\, gallerists and De
 troiters in conjunction with the exhibition How We Make the Planet Move: 
 The Detroit Collection Part I (October 26\, 2024 – March 2\, 2025)\, th
 e debut of Cranbrook Art Museum’s new permanent collection devoted to ce
 lebrating and preserving the work of artists and designers in the metro De
 troit area—its first new collection in decades.   \nAt the same time\
 , the Art Museum dedicated funds to acquire more works by women\, artists 
 of color\, and LGBTQ+ identified individuals in a project to diversify its
  permanent collection. Designed to acknowledge the long-standing history o
 f artists who have called Detroit home and the area’s rich and diverse c
 ommunity of practitioners\, the Detroit Collection is particularly focused
  on art from the 1960s to the present in a variety of media.   \nThe fi
 rst talk in the series focuses on a slice of time in the Detroit art scene
 \, beginning in the late 1960s. The Cass Corridor Movement\, which emerged
  as an artistic reaction to Detroit’s post-1967 riots\, is characterized
  by the resourceful use of materials by local artists from the early 1970s
 . However\, many other artists of the time\, who were not considered part 
 of this loosely defined movement\, were also creating works that demonstra
 ted similar creativity\, including those working with Charles McGee’s Ga
 llery 7.\nDetroit as Resource: Reflections on the Art of a Post-Riot City 
 brings together in conversation Nancy Mitchnick – a celebrated painter a
 ffiliated with the Cass Corridor – and Carole Harris – an accomplished
  textile artist whose first solo show was with Gallery 7. The two artists
  will discuss the motivations and materiality of the time and the complex
 ities and limitations of categorizing artists through movements. Reflectio
 ns on the Art of a Post-Riot City will be moderated by Kat Goffnett\, Asso
 ciate Curator of Collections and curator of How We Make the Planet Move. 
 \nFree and open to all! RSVP FOR THE EVENT HERE
