I used to go to the DIA (Detroit Institute of Arts) all the time when I was younger and closer to Detroit. I loved roaming through the halls and being mesmerized for hours by all the beautiful artwork. My favorite was the mural by Diego Rivera. This is a huge mural that takes up a large wall at the DIA. The name of the mural is "Detroit Industry" and was commissioned in 1932-1933 and consisted of 27 panels. The picture below is a small portion of the mural.
This is the whole North Wall at the DIA of the mural. You can see the enormity of it all. It is such a mesmerizing piece of artwork.
