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 art galleries, Heidelberg Project founder has come 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 of his work Saturday at the Shepherd, a former church turned art gallery on Detroit's east side, 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. Guyton, whose exhibit runs through Nov. 21, attributed the success of the long journey to courage, not just in facing down drug dealers, but in 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.

Detroit’s Massive Michigan Motown Museum Expansion Could Be A Must-See In 2027

A tiny house bought with an $800 family loan launched some of the most famous songs on Earth. Now that same house is getting a $75 million glow-up wrapped around it. The plan stretches the campus to nearly 50,000 square feet. It adds a theater, a real recording studio, and a creative hub for young dreamers. I can’t imagine a better way to honor where all that music started.

The museum says it's the first comprehensive reinstallation of both collections in 20 years. The two permanent galleries showcase beloved classics, recently acquired objects and rarely displayed works. In all, the two spaces show more than 375 items. Detroit connections are highlighted in both galleries. “The opening of our new modern and contemporary art galleries marks the culmination of an inclusive and ambitious vision for how we present the art of our time,” said DIA leader Salvador Salort-Pons in a statement. He is the Mary Anne and Eugene A. Gargaro Jr. director, president, and CEO of the Detroit Institute of Arts. “Woven throughout these rooms are works by Detroit artists, placed alongside celebrated names from around the world, so that our audiences will see their own city, histories, and experiences reflected on our walls," he said. "These galleries affirm that Detroit is not only a place where great art is shown, but where it is made, and they will inspire generations to come to imagine their own place in that story.” The transformation of the
