the past three months while eluding law enforcement and volunteers

Al Hughes paints the ceiling at Kunsthalle Detroit Museum of
Multimedia and Light-Based Art in Detroit on May 23. A
Russian-born art consultant wants to restore Detroit's status in the
art world by drawing artists to an unlikely place. Tate Osten is the
director of a nonprofit group that spent $60,000 on a century-old
vacant former bank building in a blighted, crime-infested section of
the city. If it takes root, she hopes galleries and other businesses
follow, potentially transforming the downtrodden area in the same
way art houses famously changed the Chelsea and SoHo neighborhoods
of New York City.
