Re:View
Contemporary Gallery is part of Noel Night in
Midtown Detroit (Shuttle Stop #28, in the West
Willis Village).
Space
and Time: Ten Years of the Salt-Mine
Works by Coley McLean and Simone DeSousa
Under
the direction of Founder and artist Simone DeSousa,
Re:View Contemporary is the expression of a
group of collaborators who seek to foster creativity
in various media including visual arts, design,
and writing.
In
its function as a gallery, Re:View Contemporary
will exhibit a comprehensive range of contemporary
art and design works by local and national artists,
while upholding a deep commitment to quality.
The gallery environment itself is populated
by design elements especially created for the
space by Detroit-based artists and designers.
Exhibiting
artists will have an opportunity to discuss
their work through gallery talks and interviews
by Re:View's writer. Re:View's web site and
blog will become an extension of the physical
gallery space, offering a forum for ongoing
discussion of the works exhibited in the gallery,
arts and cultural events in the community and
more.
Utilizing
the web to extend Re:View's presence and impact
invites others to think again about the art
presented in the gallery and in our community
and to review their own relationship with the
art that surrounds.
Future
plans for Re:View include hosting workshops
on art and writing in the hope of further broadening
the community's opportunities for creative expression
in a supportive environment.
In
its multi layered approach, Re:View seeks to
not only be a space to host quality contemporary
art exhibits, but also to foster the social
dialogue inspired by the arts and to challenge
the community to think againabout art,
about Detroit, about what inspires us.
