SUMMARY:Exhibition:Art Under The Microscope: BioArtography Quilts
DESCRIPTION:This unique collection of art quilts is inspired by scientific photographs taken by researchers at the U-M Center for Organogenesis. In the course of diagnostic research\, the microscope and special stains are used to examine tissues for alterations in structure or function that are characteristic of health or disease. The beauty of the photographs of these tiny biological structures\, which is a fascinating combination of art and science\, inspired this series of quilts by the Washington DC group\, Fiber Artists @ Loose Ends. Fiber artists chose from among these BioArtography images to design their quilts. This traveling exhibit\, sponsored by the Society for the Arts in Healthcare in partnership with Gifts of Art and the Center for Organogenesis\, aims to honor these scientific research efforts\, enrich community spaces by bringing the arts into everyday life and raise public awareness about the importance of the arts in healthcare settings.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:The Animal Pieces: Ceramics
DESCRIPTION:The pieces in this show address the intertwined relationships of animals and humans. In this body of work\, Craig Hinshaw explores how both animals and humans are affected by such issues as consumerism\, ecology and pollution. He explores these themes in both the subject matter and the way that he manipulates the forms. However\, an element of humor softens the tensions he creates with these challenging subjects\, bringing levity to the work and raising questions rather than answering them. In addition to his own work\, Hinshaw has a passion for teaching young children – he was voted Michigan Art Teacher of the Year around the time of an opening of his work at Ezar Gallery in New York City.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:The People of My World
DESCRIPTION:Formerly a Mechanical Engineer\, Ludmila Ketslakh's interest in photography was triggered by a number of factors: her desire to explore different parts of the world\, to seek and document unique cultures\, and to challenge the insidious forces of dilution and uniformity in society. She fervently believes that the world is a beautiful and mystifying place\, and that the people of her world are profoundly diverse and fascinating\, each with their own unique experiences that define their images. Observers of Ketslakh's photography are captivated by its reality and absorbed into the emotion captured by her lens.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Book of Iterations
DESCRIPTION:This provocative exhibition is comprised of two “bone books” made of horse  skeletons and covered in hand-written texts\, burnished in gold leaf\, and shod in  silver shoes.  Three bridled horse skulls inscribed and leafed become cabinets for  ephemeral objects and imagery clasped in the hands of priest figures dominating  war landscapes.\n\nInscribed text references medieval and early modern Christianity from the first and  second world war\, and archival texts\, produced in the 1870's in the now extinct  Bushman language “ |xam.” \n\nThrough themes of sacrifice and redemption\, the artist explores relic and archive in  the context of writing and language\, and considers the interchange between text  and textuality\, the visible and the invisible world.\n\nThe exhibition maps out the imaginary boundaries and landmarks of the  miraculous history of the book\, what it might look like\, and where it might lead us  in an ongoing journey.\n\nPippa Skotnes is the Andrew W. Mellon Fellow at the U-M Institute for the  Humanities. She is professor of fine art and director of the Center for Curating the  Archive at the Michaelis School of Fine Art\, University of Capetown\, South  Africa.\n\nProfessor Skotnes will be also be presenting the Wednesday Night Museums  lecture “Curating the Archive: Representing Scattered Collections of the Colonial  Past\,” on December 2\, 2009\, 7:30\, Helmut Stern Auditorium\, University of Michigan  Museum of Art.\n\nA corresponding conference\, “Archive\, Museum\, and the Safe House of Language”  takes place on Thursday\, December 3\, 2009\, 9am-4:30pm at the Institute for the  Humanities\, room 2022\, 202 S.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Ida: Darwinius masillae
DESCRIPTION:\"Ida\,\" a new exhibit in the Exhibit Museum's Rotunda\, displays a high-resolution cast of an extremely rare  fossil discovered in 1983 near Messel\, Germany\, but only recently made available for study. 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.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Parisa Ghaderi
DESCRIPTION:To me\, Design is a way to keep me alive and make me truly believe “I design\, so I am!”  Mostly taking on social issues\, I envision my work as a powerful weapon in dealing with challenges of the current civilized world. 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

SUMMARY:Exhibition:(Un)Natural History: The Museum Unveiled
DESCRIPTION:September 12 through December 6\, 2009\n\nRichard Barnes's series of photographs Animal Logic examines the role the museum plays in our understanding of ourselves through the acts of collecting\, preservation\, and display. 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.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:The Lens of Impressionism
DESCRIPTION:October 10\, 2009 through January 3\, 2010\n\nThis exhibition advances a new argument for the origins of what was called “the new painting\,” namely that a unique convergence of forces–social\, artistic\, technological\, and commercial–along the Normandy coast of France dramatically transformed the course of photography and painting (as well as of the region itself). 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.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:Being Invited to One’s Own House: Reflections on Culture and Heritage in Techiman\, Ghana
DESCRIPTION:Raymond Silverman\, director\, Museum Studies Program and interim co-director\, U- M Museum of Art\n\n\"Being Invited to One's Own House: Reflections on Culture and Heritage in  Techiman\, Ghana\"\n\nWhat does “culture” mean for the citizens of a community in Ghana today? How  does one engage the citizens of such a community who see local traditional  authority (the chief) as the custodian of culture in a more democratic process of (re) presenting culture? How does one engage the citizens of a complex multi-ethnic  community who have never thought about why and how they might present their  cultures to other people in planning for a space where culture is performed? This  presentation offers reflections on recent collaborative efforts developing Techiman's  first cultural center.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:Cultural Connections
DESCRIPTION:Cultural Connections Present Amer Ahmed (Associate Director of MESA/Trotter) as he discusses Hip Hop Interculturalism\n\nTuesday\, November 17\, 200 at 6:00pm Michigan League - Kalamazoo Room Q&A with Amer will follow presentation \n\nREFRESHMENTS  SPOKEN WORD  VIDEO\n\n\"As Hip Hop culture continues to diversify and recontextualize itself in cultures  throughout the world\, it remains a dynamic and complex cultural force in the US.  The pop cultural impact of Hip Hop cannot be overstated\; however its distortion in  popular media cannot be overlooked. The commodification of this modern cultural  form rooted in Black expression and born in the multicultural urban context of  South Bronx has narrowed many people's perception of what Hip Hop is.\"\n\n**Sponsored by University Unions Arts & Programs! \n\n***To learn more about cultural connections\, email cuturalconnections@umich.edu

SUMMARY:Performance:Devendra Banhart
DESCRIPTION:Devendra Banhart was born in Houston\, raised in Venezuela\, and named for Indra\,  the king of the Hindu pantheon. (His middle name is Obi.) He returned to the U.S.  and planned to study art in San Francisco but found himself spending more time  busking than studying. He wasn't searching for the big time\, but recording  companies quickly realized that his music wasn't like anything else out there.  People called it psychedelic folk\, freak-folk\, or New Weird America\, by analogy with  Greil Marcus's \"Old Weird America\" term for the more fantastic branches of the folk  tradition. Devendra began touring internationally in 2002 and quickly gained a  cadre of devoted fans. His new album \"What Will We Be\,\" is a sunny\, breezy affair  with the artist's characteristic low-tech style. It's his sixth full-length release and his  first for the Warner Brothers label\, and Devendra Banhart's Ark debut is cause for a  celebration in itself!
