Cass Cafe “Occupied” by Debt Collective(January 17 – March 7, 2009)
* Public reception: Saturday January 17 2009
7 - 10 pm
Cass Cafe Gallery has been occupied.
Artists Chris Samuels and Ian Swanson have reinterpreted the “extreme makeover” in this, their latest exhibition as The Debt Collective. This installation is not about singular works carefully positioned and displayed. This art exhibition uses the entire cafe to achieve its realization.
Working together as The Debt Collective, these two artists work comes from the everyday. Using familiar materials and manipulating objects normally taken for granted they challenge our preconceived notions about what we know and what we forget. The artists’ website is www.debtcollective.com.
The exhibition is on view January 17 through March 7, 2009.
A reception with the artist will take place Saturday January 17, from 7 until 10 p.m. The exhibition is open during Cass Cafe regular hours.Cass Cafe is located at 4620 Cass Avenue in Detroit’s Midtown.Hours: Monday – Saturday 11 a.m. – 2 a.m., Sunday 5 p.m. – 12mn.
