@ Stamelos Gallery Center
4901 Evergreen Rd, Dearborn, MI 48128-2406
Opening Thursday, January 25th, from 5 PM - 7 PM
On view through Sunday, April 21st
Andy T’s Urban Vision is the first mid-career retrospective of Detroit-based installation artist Andrew W. Thompson, popularly known as “Andy T.” As a sculptor, Thompson gives new life to discarded objects such as tires, grocery bags, plastic bottles, and mailing envelopes, thereby integrating questions of environmental, social, and economic sustainability into the context of art. Treating art as a “fundamental life-organizing principle,” the artist observes, researches, and interprets how everyday items circulate, shape, and express social beliefs and cultural customs. The opening reception will be on January 25th, 2024 from 5:00 – 7:00 PM with a talk by the artist at 6:00 PM. This event is free to the public. Complimentary beverages and hors d’oeuvres provided.
