About MOCAD:
The mission of the Museum of Contemporary Art Detroit is to present art at the forefront of contemporary culture. As a non-collecting institution, MOCAD is responsive to the cultural content of our time, fueling crucial dialogue, collaboration, and public engagement.

Exhibitions: Meditations in an Emergency includes installations by eight major international artists including two in the current Whitney Biennial. Shrinking Cities, a collaboration between MOCAD and the Cranbrook Art Museum, is organized by a group of international curators from Germany, Detroit, England, and Russia. Among other ideas, it explores the relationship between cities and suburbs.
