    Fragments in Order presents three original works by Lena Granger. Choreographed during three distinct time periods over the last eight years, these works serve as a physical archive that preserve the feelings and experiences of the choreographer and performers during each time of creation. When presented chronologically, the audience is invited to witness the evolution of an artist and individual through the personal stories shared. While completely unique conceptually, each work sits within the commonality of exploring what it looks like to wrestle within and through a difficult state of being; eventually reaching a hopeful and liberated reality. ‪(313) 749-8844‬

    Andy T's Urban Vision is the first mid-career retrospective of Detroit-based installation artist Andrew W. Thompson, popularly known as “Andy T.” As a sculptor, Thompson gives new life to discarded objects such as tires, grocery bags, plastic bottles, and mailing envelopes, thereby integrating questions of environmental, social, and economic sustainability into the context of art. Treating art as a “fundamental life-organizing principle,” the artist observes, researches, and interprets how everyday items circulate, shape, and express social beliefs and cultural customs. 313-593-5087
