SUMMARY:Exhibition - Detroit After Dark: Photographs from the DIA Collection
DESCRIPTION:“Detroit after Dark” includes dramatic architectural studies\, street scenes\, graffiti and otherworldly vignettes as well as some of Detroit’s famous night haunts\, like the premier jazz club Baker’s Keyboard Lounge\, the legendary Grande Ballroom and punk and garage rock dens such as Bookie’s Club and the Gold Dollar. While most of the photographers are from Detroit\, the exhibition also includes rare after-hours views by Robert Frank\, such as his 1955 “City Hall\, Detroit.” A small supplement of work from Paris and New York\, taken between 1920 and 1960\, will also be on view in an area adjacent to the gallery\, establishing Detroit’s part in a visual tradition and history shared with other great cities and the photographers who have shaped the genre of night photography. \nIn contrast to the quiet streets and dramatic buildings\, “Detroit after Dark” includes a number of pictures of notable musicians and the legendary concert halls\, night clubs and even art galleries where the groups often got their start or where they could perform for smaller\, intimate audiences. Among them are “Patti Smith & Fred Sonic Smith\, New Miami Bar” by Sue Rynski\, taken in 1980; Leni Sinclair’s “MC5 at the Grande Ballroom\, Zenta New Year\, October 31\, 1968”; “Jack White” and “Meg White” by Doug Coombe shot at the Gold Dollar in 1999; Steve Shaw’s 1989 “The Gories\, The Willis Gallery”; and “Marcus Belgrave at Baker’s Keyboard Lounge\, Detroit\,” a 1992 photo by Marshall. The exhibition also includes a new series of Detroit’s hip hop legends Awesome Dre\, Guilty Simpson and Nick Speed\, among others\, who collaborated with photographer Jenny Risher to create dynamic portraits set against some of Detroit’s famous landmarks. \nSome of the photographs allude to the city’s recent gentrification. For example\, DeBoer’s 2014 “Merchants Row\,” shows a view of the empty lot where the Hudson’s department store once stood\, leaving Woodward Avenues’ Merchants Row fully visible. DeBoer noted “this view will change once the area is developed but for now we can see the stunning architectural details of these historic facades.” Jordano’s series “Detroit Nocturne” features city views telling a story of Detroit’s ongoing challenges in the historic preservation of buildings\, as seen in “Michigan Train Depot with New Windows and Electric Lights\, Southwest Side\, Detroit” from 2016. \nA 112-page hardcover catalogue will be available with essays by Nancy Barr\, DIA curator of Photography\, Sara Blair\, professor of English language and literature at University of Michigan\, and Chris Tysh\, a Detroit-based poet and senior lecturer at Wayne State University. The catalogue is published by the DIA and distributed by Yale University Press\, and is $35. \nAdmission:\n$12.50 Adult\n$6 Youth (6 – 17)\n$8 Seniors\nFree Children 5 and under\n$7 College Students (with valid school photo ID)\nFree Residents of Wayne\, Oakland and Macomb counties

SUMMARY:Exhibition – I See Me: Reflections in Black Dolls
DESCRIPTION:Organized by The Wright Museum\, I See Me: Reflections in Black Dolls is designed for family enjoyment and doll collectors’ amazement. The exhibition features an array of black dolls\, dating from the late 19th century to the present\, including babies\, fashion dolls\, hand-crafted\, art dolls\, and more. A play area\, replete with a range of dolls mimicking the exhibition\, provides hands-on fun and wonder for visitors. While the exhibition draws from the museum’s collections\, it also presents a large selection of intriguing and historically significant dolls loaned by local and national doll collectors.\nI See Me provides a rare opportunity for visitors to see the largest collection of Leo Moss dolls ever assembled. In Black Dolls: An Identification and Value Guide\, 1820-1991\, author Myla Perkins presents Moss’ incredible story as told by Ruby\, his last surviving daughter. During the late 1800s and early 1900s\, Moss worked as a handyman for white families in Macon\, Georgia. However\, he had an extraordinary talent for creating dolls\, both white and black. When commissioned by a child’s parents\, he would create a doll with a striking resemblance to the child. If the child cried while he was sculpting the doll\, Moss would mold tears onto the dolls face. In the early 1900s\, tragedy struck Moss’ home. A traveling toy dealer out of New York\, from whom he often purchased doll supplies\, ran away with his wife and baby\, leaving him to raise the other four children. Moss continued making dolls but never received the financial rewards that his talent merited. He died a pauper in 1936.\nIn addition\, through educational and public programs\, the museum will revisit the 1947 Kenneth and Mammie Clarke experiment\, which involved black children being presented with two dolls\, one black and one white\, and then asked to choose the one they preferred. The results of the experiment showed that a majority of the children chose the white doll to be the prettiest and the nicest – based on color. Topics of discussion on this pervasive question about race and identity will range from where we are today\, and what\, if anything\, should be done in the future? \nAdults (13 – 61) $8\nSeniors (62 +) $5\nYouth (3 – 12) $5\nMembers & children under 3 FREE
