The Big City column this weekend on Page 3 about Steven F. Wilson, who ran a charter school network, misspells the given name of an author. She is Robin DiAngelo, not Robyn. An article this weekend on Page 8 about the Charles H. Wright Museum of African American History coming under attack by the Trump administration for the diversity it represents misidentifies part of the title of Marie Madison-Patton, MOCAD's co-director. She is also the chief operating officer, not the chief financial officer. The article also describes incorrectly the role of the Schomburg Center for Research in Black Culture in the 'Code Switch' exhibition. The exhibition was first held at the center, not in partnership with it; a second part will open at MOCAD on May 2. This article also includes an outdated description of The Kitchen. Initially an artists collective, it is now an arts institution. This article also misstates the participation of community groups at MOCAD during the 'Gun Violence Memorial Project' exhibit. The groups will not be providing antidrug and anti-violence information as part of the exhibit. An article this weekend on Page 26 about the artist Ann Craven misspells the given name of the curator at the Farnsworth Art Museum. It is Jaime DeSimone, not Jamie. This article also misstates who would be organizing rotating displays at the show at the Bowdoin College Museum of Art. They will be organized by three curators, not by students and prominent figures in the Maine art community. An article this weekend on Page 34 about Brazilian artist Adriana Varejão's first solo museum exhibit in New York misstates the name of the earliest plate made by Varejão for her show at the Hispanic Society Museum and Library. It is 'Mucura,' not 'Mucara.' An article this weekend on Page 43 about a space photography exhibition at the American Museum of Natural History in Manhattan reverses the descriptions of two images of a barred spiral galaxy that are displayed one above the other in the exhibition. The image on top, from the Hubble Space Telescope, looks like a swirl of light, not a circle of fire, and the bottom image, from the James Webb Space Telescope, resembles a circle of fire, not a swirl of light. An article this weekend on Page 44 about younger museum curators working to broaden audiences while focusing on populations and cultures that were previously ignored misstates the title of Nicola Lees at the Aspen Museum. She is the artistic director and chief executive, not the director. A review this weekend on Page 21 of 'On Air: The Triumph and Tumult of NPR,' by Steve Oney, misstates the reviewer's position at the Columbia Journalism Review. The reviewer, Sewell Chan, is the publication's former executive editor. Errors are corrected during the press run whenever possible, so some errors noted here may not have appeared in all editions.

An article on Thursday about President Trump's proposal to Ukraine that essentially grants Russia all the territory it has gained in the war, while offering Kyiv only vague security assurances misstated the number of years that the Crimean Peninsula was considered part of Russia. It was more than 150 years, not hundreds of years. An article on Thursday about Harvey Weinstein's retrial in Manhattan misstated Susan Hoffinger's title. She is the senior counsel to the district attorney, not chief of the investigations division. An article on Friday about the U.S. Naval Academy's efforts to anticipate the desires of an unpredictable presidential administration misidentified one of the institutions criticizing the invitation of Ruth Ben-Ghiat to speak at the U.S. Naval Academy. It was the publication The Federalist, not the legal group the Federalist Society. An article on Friday about a lawsuit filed by an assortment of advocacy groups aimed at stopping the Department of Homeland Security from permanently shuttering its internal oversight divisions after the Trump administration fired critical staff members misstated where the lawsuit was filed. It is Washington, D.C., not New York. The Big City column this weekend on Page 3 about Steven F. Wilson, who ran a charter school network, misspells the given name of an author. She is Robyn DiAngelo, not Robin. An art fair review on Friday about the Association of International Photography Art Dealers fair misidentified the person who gave the artist Koyoltzintli her name. While it was a shaman, it was not a shamanic mentor. The article also misidentified where the artist Cara Romero spent her childhood. She was born in Los Angeles, but grew up on the Chemehuevi Reservation. She did not grow up in Los Angeles. An article this weekend on Page 8 about the Charles H. Wright Museum of African American History coming under attack by the Trump administration for the diversity it represents misidentifies part of the title of Marie Madison-Patton, MOCAD's co-director.

It was in Washington, D.C., at the time — not Arlington, Va., where it later moved.

Glass memorial at MOCAD explores gun violence
A traveling tribute to gun violence victims built with shoes, mementos and glass is coming to Detroit. The big picture: The Museum of Contemporary Art Detroit (MOCAD) is hosting the Gun Violence Memorial Project May 2 through Aug. 10. It educates viewers while sharing stories of people who have lost loved ones to gun violence. State of play: The exhibition uses sculpture to represent the magnitude of loss, as well as each loss's tangible, individual impact. Four houses are made of 700 bricks each — the average weekly number of deaths from gun violence in the U.S. in 2019, the year the memorial project began in Chicago. Iterations were staged in Washington, D.C., and Boston before coming to Detroit, a city with high gun violence rates historically that has been seeking alternative solutions to reduce violent crime. Zoom in: Small, meaningful mementos from the people who died, like baby shoes or tassels from a school graduation, are housed inside these bricks behind translucent glass. Names, year of birth and year of death are also displayed. What's next: The memorial continues to grow. Locals are invited to add to the project at MOCAD at an event June 21. Visit the website for more details. If you go: MOCAD is at 4454 Woodward Ave. in Detroit. Admission is $12.
