Description

Detroit: The Dream Is Now is a visual essay at the rebuilding and resurgence of the city of Detroit by photographer Michel Arnaud, co-creator of Design Brooklyn. In latest years, much of the focal point on Detroit has been at the negative stories and images of shuttered, empty buildings—the emblems of Detroit’s financial and physical decline. In contrast, Arnaud aims his lens at the emergent creative enterprises and new developments taking hold in the still-vibrant city. The book explores Detroit’s wealthy industrial and artistic past even as giving voice to the dynamic communities a good way to make up its future. The first section provides a visual tour of the city’s architecture and neighborhoods, even as the remainder chapters center of attention at the developing design, art, and food scenes through interviews and portraits of the city’s entrepreneurs, artists, and makers. Detroit is the story of an American city in flux, documented in Arnaud’s thought-provoking photographs.
