Simone DeSousa Gallery is pleased to participate in Detroit Art Mile’s second edition with a group presentation including works by eight gallery artists: Tyanna Buie, James Collins, Iris Eichenberg, Kylie Lockwood, Michael Luchs, Jova Lynne, Mark Newport, and Neha Vedpathak.

Art Mile is a city-wide digital art exhibition that champions Detroit’s vibrant and diverse arts community by promoting public programs and online acquisitions. Organized by Reyes | Finn and Cultural Counsel in partnership with Red Bull Arts, Art Mile launched its inaugural festival in the summer of 2020, providing over 60 Detroit galleries, institutional non-profits, museums, and artist-run spaces with free access to Art Mile’s exhibition platform, with sales made directly through exhibitors on an inquiry basis.

This summer, Art Mile will return with a full month of exhibitions and events celebrating the arts in Detroit, as well as its first open call to participate. Held June 14–July11, 2021, Art Mile’s second edition will extend from being one week long to a full month of exhibitions and events, featuring a new curatorial and programming partnership with world renowned not-for-profit organization, Independent Curators International (ICI); a special exhibition organized by the inaugural Art Mile Curatorial Fellow; an open call for local galleries and institutions to participate, as well as an open call for Art Mile Editions—a new exhibition category showcasing independent zines and printed matter, which will become available for purchase online.
