A Street Full Of Art And Soul-Heidelberg Project Detroit-Google EarthHere in detroit is one of the most interesting streets in america,Heidelberg St.I have been here two times before and will be taking my kids as well.Literally the whole street is full of art.Just down right amazing and creative. The Heidelberg Project is an outdoor art project in Detroit, Michigan. It was created in 1986 by artist Tyree Guyton and his grandfather Sam Mackey ("Grandpa Sam") as an outdoor art environment in the McDougall-Hunt neighborhood on the city's east side, just north of the city's historically African-American Black Bottom area. The Heidelberg Project is, in part, a political protest, as Tyree Guyton's childhood neighborhood began to deteriorate after the 1967 riots. Guyton described coming back to Heidelberg Street after serving in the Army; he was astonished to see that the surrounding neighborhood looked as if "a bomb went off". http://www.heidelberg.org/ http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Heidelberg_Project n42 212'40.32" w 83 01'10.56" code pour embarquer la vidéo : >>> http://www.youtube.com/embed/puIX1EOCF4A <<< |
