The City Council mentioned the DIA yesterday, but only in terms of eliminating the City's support for its operations. While President Pro Tem Brown talked about the importance of finding a monetization method for City-owned land, no one brought up the possibility of mobilizing the financial value in City-owned artworks... at that meeting. Here's hoping the DIA's vast financial value helps Detroit head off an EFM or bankruptcy that would threaten the integrity of Detroit's DIA collection.
