A

rtwork created especially for the latest exhibit at the
Janice Charach Gallery will be enhanced by brand new
lighting and ceiling colors that have been brought into
the display space over the past three months.
“Outside In: Artists of the Detroit Landscape,” an exhibit that
features smaller works by 12 local street artists, will be on view
through Dec. 6 to showcase indoors the varied approaches
mostly seen alfresco.
“Visitors will get a sense of what’s going on at art parks and
art happenings,” says Kelly Kaatz, gallery director. “The broad
range of works — paintings, mixed media, sculpture — will
include portraits of strong African American women by Sydney
James and a series of abstract landscapes by Malt.”
These two artists and the others who are participating in this
show have adapted their usually expansive styles so each could
provide more than one work of art.
“The state-of-the-art lighting makes the displayed artwork
seem to glow,” says Kaatz, who curated the exhibit. “We also
have added a new sound system for the times when we have
speakers in the gallery.
