Via Blogroll member M-Bike.org comes news of freshly-painted graffiti along the Dequindre Cut Greenway in Detroit, Mich. But don't worry - this public art was sponsored by the Detroit RiverFront Conservancy, Contemporary Art Institute of Detroit and the College for Creative Studies' community+public arts DETROIT Initiative. It looks like a great addition to a corridor already known for its incredible graffiti, and a Midwest version of the recently-completed graffiti mural along the Metropolitan Branch Trail in Washington, D.C.
