No Place for Wimps

I have for a while thought that Detroit might well be the place to be for up and coming artists. I don't really know the city well, except that there is mad cheap space available in beautiful old buildings. Also, the city has roots and culture as deep as any city in America.

The entire downtown has always struck me as one big version of that slightly sketchy neighbourhood where all the artists live... the one that will sooner or later sprout hip sketchy bars, and galleries, and then cafes, and Starbucks, and condos...

(If I'm at all right, now is your chance to pick up a couple of cheap condos/buildings downtown)

Anyway - check out this article (and especially the slideshow) about a new art gallery. Pretty sweet.
