- Detroit Institute of Arts Director Graham Beal is set to retire this week after leading the museum for nearly 16 years. Although the museum's challenges through Detroit's bankruptcy are best-known, Beal's signature contribution came in 2007 when the museum reinstalled 5,000 pieces of art after a six-year renovation and expansion. The reinstallation project followed years of audience research to identify what most attracted and repelled museum visitors. Beal spoke with Crain's senior reporter
