In contrast to this line of thought\, Landscape and Memory presents the self as shaped by environment and landscape.\n\nCURATED BY Catherine Meier and Joshua Smith \n\nARTISTS Shane Anderson\, Katherine E.

The goal of these studies is to use what is learned to design new and effective ways to treat disease and repair damaged organs. In the course of this work\, scientists use the microscope and special stains or “colors” to look at tissues for changes that could affect our health. These tiny biological structures that are studied are often beautiful and present a fascinating combination of art and science.\n\nAll images are available for purchase and all proceeds support research training at the University of Michigan\, Center for Organogenesis.

She is now engaged in a variety of activities as she produces her line of wearable art. Handweaving\, felting\, dyeing and beading are common tools of her trade. Lately\, she has been exploring Nuno felting\, a Japanese technique which combines wool felt with silk fabric. One of her dyeing techniques is a resist process involving clamping and applying dye in multiple steps\, creating a multiple-color\, multiple-shape design.

In this unique installation\, Barnes considers the nature of things from collection and display to extinction. A prehistoric skeletal whale juxtaposes a mound of rubber molds and resin casts\, examining questions of replication and authenticity\, what we save and what we lose. Both lyrical and visceral\, Barnes' work engages us in a provocative conversation about museological practice from behind the scenes\, capturing the inextricable relationship between human gesture and the inevitability of extinction.

The fossil has proven to be a “link” between the prosimian and simian (\"anthropoid\") primate lineages. It has \"advanced\" front teeth (incisors and canines) and second toes like those of monkeys\, and is broadly representative of what human primate ancestors may have looked like during the Eocene epoch 47 million years ago. Ida (prounded \"eeda\") is named after after the daughter of Dr Jørn Hurum\, the Norwegian vertebrate paleontologist who secured one section of the fossil from an anonymous owner\, and led the research. Ida was about eight months old\, or the equivalent of a six-year-old human. Publication of a paper on the discovery was accompanied by a book\, The Link: Uncovering Our Earliest Ancestors by Colin Tudge\, and a documentary shown on the History Channel (US)\, BBC One (UK)\,and various stations in Germany and Norway. U-M paleontologist Philip Gingerich and U-M anthropologist B. Holly Smith were two members of the \"dream team\" invited to study Ida. The exhibit will be on display through May 2010.

Images from this large body of work include photographs of the collections from the Smithsonian Institution\, the Museum of Comparative Anatomy in Paris\, the Canadian Museum of Natural History\, and the San Francisco Academy of Science. (Un)Natural History focuses primarily on the natural history museum and by extension collecting institutions in general\, providing a kind of behind-the-scenes look at museum practice and display.\n\nThis exhibition will coincide with the UM LSA Theme Semester Meaningful Objects: Museums and the Academy. UMMA's presentation is projected to serve as part of a three-venue project highlighting different aspects of Barnes's work in partnership with the UM Institute for the Humanities–who have selected Richard Barnes as the Paula and Edwin Sidman Fellow in the Arts for 2009–and the Cranbrook Institute of Science in Bloomfield Hills\, Michigan.

Recent projects have addressed topics ranging from the current Iraq war to the politics of bicycling in a city of freeways. In her slogan-adorned sweater sets\, each outfit becomes a wearable canvas\, literally weaving together the personal and the political\, the aesthetic and the everyday. Auerbach's installation at UMMA will transform the Museum's most highly visible space–the Irving Stenn Jr. Family Project Gallery–into a showcase for her politically charged\, socially engaged knitwear. Appropriating strategies of presentation and display from the high-end clothing market\, this unconventional installation will encourage viewers to ask questions about how we experience different types of cultural spaces\, how we perceive the relationship between one type of luxury good (fashion) and another (art)\, and how both political and aesthetic discourses are framed in contemporary society.\n\nThis project is made possible in part by the W. Hawkins Ferry Fund and UMMA's New Visions Venture Fund.

In grasses\, systemic fungal endophytes can ameliorate both abiotic stress (e.g.\, drought) and biotic stress (e.g.\, herbivory)\, and thereby promote host performance. I have used this system to address several ecological and evolutionary questions about the dynamics and consequences of symbiosis. First\, to what extent do mutualistic symbioses affect community structure? Field experiments have revealed strong\, cascading effects of these mutualisms on plants\, arthropods\, and other microbes. Effects are not easily predicted from the responses of individual community members\, and detection requires a community- level perspective. While it remains unclear how widespread the community and ecosystem consequences of grass-endophyte symbioses may be\, recent studies spanning several native grass and fungal species suggest these symbioses may commonly produce strong ecological impacts. Second\, how can endophyte symbioses inform our understanding of the evolution of mutualisms? Is phylogenetic evidence consistent with co-speciation? Is there evidence for mutualism breakdown? How have evolutionary conflicts been resolved\, and what factors may help stabilize mutualism?
