Cross-Plotting: Detroit to Windsor, an exhibit
If you're looking for an international adventure next weekend, November 9th, take a trip to Canada for this exhibit featuring University of Michigan students taught by one of Creative Rights' favorite designers, Catie Newell. Creative Rights has been working with these Master of Architecture students on their work in abandoned spaces in the city of Detroit, the means by which they transport their works over the border, and how they navigate the urban landscape as creators. The exhibit will show visual representations of their concepts, which they will continue into the Winter semester.
Cross-plotting: Detroit to Windsor is an exhibition by a group of Master of Architecture students at the University of Michigan. The group is formulated around a research practice that investigates the unfolding circumstances of the city through full-scale-work: making is used as a means to reveal, critique, and alter the realities of our urban settings. The exhibition focuses on specific plots of land in Detroit by exploring their material and atmospheric conditions as well as their immaterial regulations, degrees of neglect, and idiosyncrasies. The capsules work to re-frame materials from the plots in Detroit within their displaced context in Windsor.
The group is collaborating with the artist-led interdisciplinary collective Broken City Lab, as well as the Creative Rights legal team. The attitudes and research practices developed for this work will inform a yearlong thesis studio.
The exhibit opens November 9th at 7pm at Broken City Lab's Civic Space: 411 Pelissier Street in downtown Windsor.
Exhibitors include: John Guinn // Tony Killian // Anastasia Kostrominova // Emily Kutil // Sarah Nowaczyk // Harry Solie // Grant Weaver // Andrew Wolking // Ning Zhou
