Diego Rivera's world-renowned "Detroit Industry" fresco cycle at the DIA embodies the spirit of Labor Day. Rivera conceived of the murals as a tribute to the city's manufacturing base and labor force of the 1930s. The fresco cycle begins on the east wall, where the origins of human life and technology are represented. Those themes are continued on the west wall, where the technologies of aviation and water are represented. The vertical panels on each side of the west entrance introduce the theme of the automobile industry through the representation of Power House No. 1, the energy source for the Rouge complex. Finally, the north and south walls are devoted to three sets of images: the representation of the races that shape North American culture and make up its workforce, the automobile industry and Detroit's other industries.

Rivera completed the twenty-seven panel work in 11 months, from April 1932 to March 1933. It is considered the finest example of Mexican mural art in the United States, and the artist thought it the best work of his career.

We are closed today, but you can learn more about the murals here: https://www.dia.org/riveracourt

Pewabic makes such beautiful tile.

The Detroit Institute of Arts was founded in 1885 and was originally located on Jefferson Ave., not far from Pewabic Pottery. It moved to its current location in 1927. The “Beaux-Arts” building was alternatively referred to as the “temple of art”. Pewabic tile installations were commissioned following the move to Woodward Ave. in 1927.

This Pewabic Iridescent tile niche is positioned at the entry to the DIA’s American art wing. The DIA’s collection is one of the largest and most significant in the country! We are so lucky to be neighbors and long standing collaborators with the Detroit Institute of Arts. What is your favorite local art institution?
