the Detroit Institute of Arts.

in my opinion, a broader range of art than the Louvre.

Continuing with my tour of the Rijksmuseum (perfect thread for it I think, I'll do this is small doses!).

Just a glance at one of the rooms. The museum had been remodelled and it was (and is) really beautiful.

I visited the museum right after it reopened and it really was beautiful.

yep. not necessarily the 'showpiece' of the museum but quite commanding.

in case anyone was wondering (or even they werent !) Kresge Hall is sponsored or was sponsored at one time by the owner of the S.S. Kresge department stores that then developed them into K-mart (in the US and Canada)

Interesting. Even as a non-US citizen I know K-mart.
