America Let’s Exercise: participants enjoyed a local senior dance group and presentation focused on healthy living and exercise habits for older adults. In the Garden: seniors attended a special talk exploring the hidden meanings behind images of flowers, plants, and gardens in some of the DIA’s favorite works of art. Mother’s Day Music: attendees enjoyed a performance featuring jazz, Latin, vocal, contemporary, and classical sounds.

  • The Surgery Panel in Diego Rivera's Detroit
    > The surgery panel in Diego Rivera’s Detroit Industry Murals The surgery panel in Diego Rivera’s Detroit Industry Murals The surgery panel in Diego Rivera’s Detroit Industry Murals The Surgery Panel. The surgeon performs an orchiectomy at center. The blood-stained drapes form a mound that is both a volcano and a pyramid, images seen at the top registers of the south and north walls of the courtyard. Arrays of organs surround the surgeon’s hands: base of brain with pituitary in center; digestive organs and endocrine glands to the left; male and female reproductive structures and breast to the right. Note the duodenum to the left; a pipe in the assembly line has the same configuration. Juxtaposition of female and male repro- ductive organs reflects the androgyny of the titans on the top registers of both walls. The wave motif signifies energy and is the dominating pattern in the middle register of both walls. Grey ropy material resembling semen flows from the left to form crystals on the right.
