The $1 Million Harry Bertoia Sculpture Found in a Mall Basement, and the Questions Over Its Restoration

It is the kind of story the art world rarely gets: a major sculpture by one of America’s great modernists, lost in a shopping-mall basement for nearly four decades, rediscovered by appraisers, restored and sold to General Motors for a reported $1 million. Months after it went up in GM’s new Detroit headquarters, the tale of Harry Bertoia’s forgotten “clouds” is circulating widely again online, along with questions about how the restoration was done.

From drug dealers to ritzy art galleries, Detroit artist Tyree Guyton has come a long way

DETROIT — Before turning a ravaged Detroit street into a work of art in 1986, Tyree Guyton confronted drug dealers who were ensconced there. If they wanted to sell drugs, they should become a doctor, he told them. If they wanted to carry a gun, they should join the Army. Being an artist, Guyton transformed his message into art, painting a series of crosses up and down Heidelberg Street. The young criminals began calling him the Voodoo Man. The Voodoo Man, who spoke during a solo exhibit Saturday, has come a long way. Back then, his Heidelberg Project was derided by many as an eyesore. Today, his work is shown in major collections around the world. He attributed the success of the long journey to courage, not just in facing down drug dealers but to picking himself back up every time someone told him he wasn’t any good. “They way to fix it is to fix yourself,” he said. “You have to fight for this. Most people are not living in the world today. We are in a world of confusion, a world of conflict.” Quoting abolitionist Frederick Douglass, he said that, without struggle, there is no progress.

Gett’n Cheezy in Motown

Billy Nershi | The String Cheese Incident | Detroit, MI | November 5th, 2026 - photos by Photo Foo Foo. The String Cheese Incident has a long and close relationship with Michigan having played here over 50 times throughout their long career. Typically those shows take place on the west side of the mitten where Cheese holds their annual megalith festival ; Electric Forest. Detroit has only seen one cheese show in the last 26 years and this week marked only the third time in 30 years they have visited. To say the 313 natives were pumped and ready to get all seriously lactose tolerant is an understatement. A solid contingent made the mecca up from Cleveland for the show as well. 6 PM Doors and a 7:30 start time only added to the temptation for this school night crowd. The ‘Fillmore Detroit’ formerly known as the ‘State Theatre’ is one of the cities prettiest old movie houses sitting on Woodward avenue just across from the Detroit baseball and football stadiums and it's always fun to me to see the jamgrass community in their bright colors and dreads invade the old school marble and crystal palace for a show. Having doors an hour plus before the show with no opening act gave fans ample time to get there, get past TSA and find a bevy and a place to stand. The Fillmore holds close to 3,000 folks at capacity and this show was maybe three quarters full so lots of room to move around and boogie.
