ONCE IN DETROIT
March 7-31, 2024
Mauro Guglielminotti
Opening reception: March 7, 6-8pm
Artist talk: TBA
Cities can die. But they can also be reborn. This is what I saw happening in Detroit.
Every year, for over twenty-five years, work has called me here. Year by year, I have seen the city change, from the deep crisis to the first attempt at rebirth, in a continuous rise and fall until the most recent transformation
These signs still coexist. Detroit does not forget its past, its culture and its specificities, even now that it is reinventing itself as one of the most interesting and lively contemporary American cities.
