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.

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.
