Detroit has always been a unique city with an identity all its own. Standing out among the many major cities of the United States with its industrial heritage and major cultural contributions, the city has drawn in and inspired countless creative minds across multiple generations and continues to serve as an inspiring hub for art and culture.
Founded by Gary Wasserman, CEO of Allied Metals Corporation and lifelong art lover, who felt compelled to open up a new gallery in Detroit after seeing all of the recent revitalization and rebirth of the city, the Wasserman Projects is one of the top art galleries in Michigan's biggest urban area. Opened in late 2015, Wasserman Projects is located in the Eastern Market neighborhood and housed in an old, abandoned fire station.
Offering around 9,000 square feet of floor space, the Wasserman Projects was designed to simply offer something new and interesting for locals and visitors to check out, and it quickly caught the eye of many people due to one of its most fascinating and unique exhibitions: the Cosmopolitan Chicken Project. Now, associated with several leading and emerging artists from Detroit and around the world, Wasserman Projects stands out as one of Detroit’s must-visit art galleries.
