Who says auto show, says pretty girls! Here are the ones from the 2010 Detroit auto show.. Enjoy! ![]() Seven photographers were making the photo-project about Detroit for 5 years. The whole 5 years they were taking pictures that show the evolving of the city. Especially nowadays when not many people are satisfied of what Detroit is. The pictures aim to uncover the city, not what it has been before or what it should be today, but simply the way it is. Here are the names of photographers who took part in this project: Corine Vermeulen-Smith, Mitch Cope, Clinton Snider, Mark Alor Powell, Antonio Gomez, Ingo Vetter, Scott Hocking. ![]() The Heidelberg Project was created in 1986 by artist Tyree Guyton and his grandfather Sam Mackey ("Grandpa Sam") as an outdoor art environment on Detroit's McDougall-Hunt neighbourhood. The Heidelberg Project is, in part, a political protest, as Tyree Guyton's childhood neighborhood began to deteriorate after the 1967 riots On two occasions, the Heidelberg Project faced demolition by the City of Detroit. The 1999 demolition did, however, result in Guyton and his supporters' bringing a civil lawsuit against the City of Detroit. The Wayne County Circuit Court ruled that the Heidelberg Project was protected "political speech" under the 1st Amendment as an outdoor art environment. And now it’s been already 23 years that it exists. Here are some interesting pictures for you to see. ![]() |
