100k+ Gaze Into Face of Jesus at DIA

February 20, 2012

Huge crowds packed the Detroit Institute of Arts for the "Rembrandt and the Face of Jesus" exhibit, which finished its 12-week run on February 12th. Museum officials say nearly 120-thousand people came to see the show. For many, it was their first visit to the DIA, and officials are hoping those folks will come back to see the rest of the artworks. The exhibit also produced almost five-thousand new memberships for the Institute. WDET's Pat Batcheller talked with DIA director Graham Beal about the Rembrandt show, and what's coming up later this year at the musuem. Click on the audio link above to hear the conversation.
