NCCE 800 Detroit Institute of Arts (DIA): Fakes, Forgeries
and Mysteries
Prerequisite: None
Enrich your Sunday afternoon with culture, creativity, and intrigue at the
new DIA with an introduction to the exhibition Fakes, Forgeries and
Mysteries. This exhibit displays around 50 works of art including paintings,
sculptures, photographs, prints, drawings and decorative arts from diverse
cultures - European, African, American, and Asian. Research, science, and
technology require constant re-assessment resulting in changing perceptions
of authenticity, artist, and value. This exhibit will highlight some of the
mistakes and discoveries made over time. You will be able to hone your
"detective skills" in the exhibit's mock conservation lab and through
interactive activities explore genuine versus forged art, and other ongoing
research mysteries at the DIA. Private tour. Bus transportation provided to
and from DIA from East Lansing. The bus will leave LCC East, 2827 Eyde

Students will receive complete driving instructions and information packets
one week before tour. LCC East is located at 2827 Eyde Parkway in East
