Echoes from the Rust traces the artistic lineages of the Rust Belt as it re-emerges from a time of fracture following corporate abandonment and economic decline. This group exhibition hones in on artwork made by artists with lived experiences in Detroit and Pittsburgh, two post-industrial titans forged by steel.
 Works by the following artists are included in the exhibition: N.E. Brown, Halima Afi Cassells, Adnan Charara, Joshua Challen Ice, Hubert Massey, and Omid Shekari.
Echoes from the Rust is curated by Kemuel Benyehudah, a Brooklyn born curator who has witnessed gentrification’s socioeconomic disparities, cultural erasure, and human displacement. He is interested in expanded notions of community to envision equitable futures for all.
