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.

My greatest inspirations are among everything I see\, feel and experience.\n\nGraphic design fills me with a sense of accomplishment and integrity. It has proven to be the most amenable driving force for translating the inner vision to outer reality. Through my posters I can express my thoughts\, ideals\, joys\, and regrets to touch the mind and hearts of my fellow human beings. Having respected the true value of creativity\, I always tend to focus on novel ideas in order to make memorable and ever-lasting works of art. I adore simplicity and minimalism and this is well perceived from the direction I take in my works.\n\nI also enjoy photography -- framing everyday life\, traditions and beliefs. I do not seek to capture exceptionally rare moments and events\; to me\, every moment is unique and worth being read and seen many\, many times. I use my photography vision in my posters\, and enjoy the combination of photos with other forms of art. Through my works\, I'd like people to explore life as they never had before\, and to be more sensitive to minor happenings in its every aspect. I am inspired by my beautiful country\, Iran\, and its rich culture. There still would be a lot more to explore and experience. Here\, I just framed a pixel of it!\n\n-Parisa Ghaderi UID:2984-921879@events.umich.edu URL:https://events.umich.edu/event/2984 CLASS:PUBLIC STATUS:CONFIRMED CATEGORIES:visual arts LOCATION:Pierpont Commons - Wall Gallery & Piano Lounge CONTACT: END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20091022T143310 DTSTART;TZID=America/Detroit:20091109T090000 SUMMARY:Community Service:SERVE Sponsor-A-Family 2009 Registration Begins DESCRIPTION:SERVE will be collaborating with Community Action Network (CAN) and Community Leaning Post (CLP) in providing many local families with holiday gifts through our SPONSOR-A-FAMILY project.\n\nCommunity Action Network (CAN) and Community Leaning Post (CLP) are organizations in Washtenaw County that provide various services to low-income families.\n\nRegister by going to the website and your group will receive a wish list of the family or child that you will be sponsoring in November.\n\n**Please be advised that SPONSOR-A-FAMILY requires that organizations/individuals spend a minimum of $50 on each sponsored person.

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.

Within this framework\, the invention of the camera and the development of early fine art photography in that particular setting will be seen as the specific catalysts that brought about a new approach to painting.\n\nThe project will showcase paintings\, photographs\, and drawings by some of the most treasured artists in the Western canon–Gustave Courbet\, Edouard Manet\, Edgar Degas\, and Claude Monet among them–as well as pioneering photographers such as Gustave Le Gray and Henri Le Secq. Inspired by the scenic Normandy coast of France\, these works–including representations of beach scenes\, seascapes\, fishing villages\, resorts\, and the region's pastoral beauty–will be brought together with archival materials related to early tourism and regional expressions of French nationalism from popular culture for an innovative examination of the impact of the then-new medium of photography on ideas of image making\, the recording of passing time\, the capacities of painting\, and the rise of Impressionism itself.\n\nOrganized by UMMA\, this exhibition is made possible in part by the Florence Gould Foundation\, the National Endowment for the Arts\, Masco Corporation\, and the University of Michigan's Office of the Provost and Office of the Vice President for Research. Additional support has been provided by the family of Raymond F. Cunningham in his memory. Following its showing in Ann Arbor\, the exhibition will travel to the Dallas Museum of Art.
