It's nice when they "get it".

From one of my Advanced 3D Art students:

"When I entered this class I was pessimistic because my major is 2D Art and it is more what I am natural at. However, my lack of knowledge is what helped me though the class. I learned things about myself as a person and as an artist. Now I know to try new things because everything I did in this class was new to me. The experience was great."

Ehhh... too bad, you just missed a cool installation/performance show last weekend, by Amanda Faye Cain, who I have written about previously. As before, the show was at the Russell Industrial Center.

I don't know of anything specific this weekend. Take a look at the RIC website and see if they have anything else going on down there:

You might want to check out the MOCAD (Museum of Contemporary Art Detroit):

Also, take a look at the MONA (Museum of New Art):

Good luck; hope you have some fun in the D!
