After a 2013 visit to the once-famed industrial complex Willow Run in Washtenaw County, Michigan, Ernestine Ruben photographed the now-dormant mechanical ruins that were designed and built during World War II by her grandfather, renowned Detroit architect Albert Kahn. Join Ms. Ruben and Assistant Curator of Photography, Jennifer Friess, for a discussion of the exhibition and a screening of Ruben’s new short film, Willow Run—with an original score by Grammy Award-winning composer Stephen Hartke and created in collaboration with video artist Seth Bernstein.
