Beauty and Ruin

As Detroit's financial crisis deepens, the city is forced to sell off its valuable assets to pay off its staggering $18 billion debt, marking a difficult chapter in its industrial decline.

Detroit, once a powerhouse of American industry, now faces bankruptcy and must liquidate its assets to repay its $18 billion debt. With little left, the city's most valuable asset is the Detroit Institute of Arts, a treasure trove of masterpieces by renowned artists. As Detroit's financial struggles worsened, the city's pension crisis reached a boiling point, making the fate of the art a matter of deep injustice.
