The Detroit Institute of the Arts Museum is lending the City of Troy some of their most wonderful masterpieces to display around town. They're taking these famous works of art found inside their museum and putting them outside! These reproductions are made of vinyl and are weatherproof and touch-proof. Nine giant reproductions have been installed in the locations below and will remain up through the second week of November. The event is sponsored by the Knight Foundation.
