I recently wrote an article about the Detroit art scene for Chicago’s New Art Examiner,  focusing on three organizations/projects that seemed to me to exemplify important features of Detroit and its artists right now. 1XRun, Playground Detroit and the North End neighborhood’s American Riad project demonstrate the  entrepreneurial creativity, DIY energy, and artistic/social inclusiveness that I see in the city.  I’m sorry I couldn’t write about more of the Detroit’s great galleries and projects, but that would take a book, not a magazine article.  To read what I wrote, go here
