Medieval manuscripts document the preservation of the text until the invention of movable type printing by Gutenberg around 1450. The early printed Bibles include versions in Latin and Greek\, and several that show the struggles among various political factions and church reformers to control the translating of the Scriptures into the language of the people. See the King James Bible of 1611 that became the accepted standard.\n\nFor Audubon Room hours\, see https://www.lib.umich.edu/audubon-room UID:2220-918633@events.umich.edu URL:https://events.umich.edu/event/2220 CLASS:PUBLIC STATUS:CONFIRMED CATEGORIES:visual arts LOCATION:Hatcher Graduate Library - Audubon Room/First Floor CONTACT: END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20101111T175822 DTSTART;TZID=America/Detroit:20100226T090000 DTEND;TZID=America/Detroit:20100226T170000 SUMMARY:Exhibition:Exhibit: Santu Mofokeng's Chasing Shadows DESCRIPTION:Santu Mofokeng\, one of South Africa's most prominent photographers\, began his work as a documentarian of the anti-Apartheid struggle. Eventually deciding to leave the field of straightforward photojournalism\, he focused instead on isolating the simple gestures of everyday life in South African townships. His work explores landscape imbued with memory\, loss\, and spirituality\, and forces us to examine any preconceived notion we have regarding exact locations of faith\, identity\, or community. The photographs serve to “reclaim landscape\,” examining themes of ownership\, and the relationship between the land\, power\, and money. In his extraordinary series Chasing Shadows\, displaced people reclaim their spirituality and sustenance even in the midst of relentless transition. His most recent urban landscapes go beyond social and political commentary\, meditating on the profound absurdity of living. Billboards cruelly highlight the impoverishment of the citizenry they importune.\n\nMofokeng has been the recipient of numerous awards. In 1991\, he won the Ernest Cole Scholarship to study at the International Center of Photography in New York. He was also awarded the first Mother Jones Award for Africa in 1992\, and more recently the Kunstlerhaus Worpswede Fellowship and DAAD Fellowship\, both in Germany\, and was the Prince Claus Laureate for Visual Arts in 2009.

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.

Some are struggling with the hardships of poverty\; some are homeless\; others are in transition and recovering from life's setbacks. All are welcome. The heart and soul of the Breakfast at St. Andrew's is belief in the gifts and responsibilities of community and commitment to the role each of us can play in extending a compassionate hand. Lending their help this evening are four wonderful artists. Saline native and D.C.-area fiddler Bonnie Rideout is the first woman to hold the U.S. National Scottish Fiddle Champion title and the creator of 13 albums and seven music books for Mel Bay Publishing. Virginia-born Duck Baker\, who now lives in London\, is among the most highly regarded fingerstyle guitarists of his generation. He is unique among jazz guitarists in that his repertoire spans the entire history of the music from ragtime through swing to modern masters like Thelonious Monk and Herbie Nichols to free improvisation. This is his first local appearance. Rev. Robert Jones\, Sr.\, pastor of the Sweet Kingdom Missionary Baptist Church in Detroit \, has been a champion of American roots music for more than 25 years. As a performer\, radio host on WDET-FM ( Detroit ) and educator\, he has introduced new audiences around the country to the music Rev. Gary Davis\, Blind Willie Johnson\, Rev. Dan Smith\, Joshua White\, Blind Connie Williams and Rev. Robert Wilkins\, as well as his original compilations. And Trenton\, Michigan songwriter Bill Bynum and his band can lean into bluegrass\, veer toward country\, or take listeners on a unique journey through Bill's original songs. He's an Ark favorite\, and all these artists will make you glad you decided to come and lend a hand for a good cause. \n\nNote special 7 p.m. start time.
