Join us for a panel discussion at the Detroit Institute of Arts with Detroit artists Sydney James, Hubert Massey, and Mario Moore, co-organized by Cranbrook Art Museum and the Detroit Institute of Arts, introductions given by Laura Mott, Chief Curator, Cranbrook Art Museum, and Katie Pfohl, Associate Curator of Contemporary Art, Detroit Institute of Arts.

Organized to accompany the Cranbrook Art Museum’s exhibition Skilled Labor: Black Realism in Detroit, on view at Cranbrook Art Museum through March 3, 2024, this discussion will take place in the DIA’s Rivera Court, the location of Diego Rivera’s iconic Detroit Industry Murals (1932-33).

Everyone is invited and admission is gratis but registration is required.

r2 sez: do yourself a favor and participate in the discussion — this is an appointment you’ll tell your grandkids about; these are three world-class artists…as if you didn’t already know!
