Detroit's Rivera - Screening and Conversation with Julio Ramos

A documentary on the process of production of Diego Rivera's Detroit Industry Frescos and the murals' agitated social context during the years of the Great Depression. The documentary's remarkable archival montage explores the links between industrial labor, public art, and industrial cinema under the exigencies of Fordism.

Directed and written by Julio Ramos

We’re Turning 100!


To mark our centennial in the fall of 2024, the Maxwell School will hold special events and engagement opportunities to celebrate the many ways—across disciplines and borders—our community ever strives to, as the Oath says, “transmit this city not only not less, but greater, better and more beautiful than it was transmitted to us.”

Throughout the year leading up to the centennial, engagement opportunities will be held for our diverse, highly accomplished community that now boasts more than 38,500 alumni across the globe.
