Detroit Institute of Art

(313) 833-7900
This exhibition of approximately 100 works on paper serves as a corollary and thematic complement to another exhibition at the Detroit Institute of Art (DIA), "Life's Pleasures: The Ashcan Artists' Brush With Leisure." Drawn almost entirely from the DIA's collection, and featuring prints from John Sloan, George Bellows, Glenn O. Coleman, and Martin Lewis, includes, among others, images of people at the circus, the beach, in city parks, and partaking in other leisure activities, forming a rich reflection of casual times in daily life.
