SUMMARY:Exhibition:On Beauty and the Everyday: The Prints of James McNeill Whistler
DESCRIPTION:UMMA's rare and important collection of James McNeill Whistler works on paper represents  one of the finest holdings of Whistler's graphic output in North America. This major exhibition  features more than 100 works of art from UMMA's Whistler collection\, which covers the  artist's entire career in Europe\, ranging from his student days and exposure to the vanguard  artistic movements of the 19th century to the groundbreaking and atmospheric lithographs  and etchings of his mature style. It is the first exhibition devoted to Whistler's works at  UMMA since 1994.\n\nNearly all of the Whistler works came to the Museum through the bequest of Margaret  Watson Parker\, an early collector of both Whistler's prints as well as Japanese art. The  exhibition explores Whistler's illustrious life and career\; his artistic themes and concerns\,  including portraiture and his well-known series from England\, Italy\, and France\; the interests  and legacy of early-20th-century Whistler collector Margaret Watson Parker\; and the tools  and techniques that Whistler employed as a printmaker.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Out of the Ordinary: Selections from the Bohlen Wood Art and Fusfeld Folk Art Collections
DESCRIPTION:This exhibition\, which runs from September 11 through Spring of 2011\, allows visitors to  explore two extraordinary collections of art–the Robert M. and Lillian Montalto Bohlen  Collection of Wood Art and the Daniel and Harriet Fusfeld Folk Art Collection. The Bohlen  collection presents an astonishing range of contemporary artworks fashioned from wood and  includes works that explores traditional and non-traditional vessel forms as well as works that  are more purely sculptural. The outstanding objects that make up the Fusfeld collection are both  geographically and historically wide-ranging\, including work by early nineteenth-century  itinerant folk portraitists as well as late twentieth-century sculpture and painting by “outsider”  artists from the American South\, Midwest\, and Northeast.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:UMMA Projects: Jakob Kolding
DESCRIPTION:UMMA is pleased to present the first solo exhibition in a North American museum of Berlin- based artist Jakob Kolding. Kolding's work revolves around the experience of life in the  contemporary built environment\, particularly the relationships and contradictions that emerge  between how architectural spaces are planned and how they are actively used. His collages\,  drawings\, posters\, and mixed-media sculptures incorporate a wide range of source material\,  sampling and mixing the visual idiom of modernist art and architecture\, the language of  sociological inquiry\, and such popular cultural forms as hip-hop and electronic music\,  skateboarding\, and soccer. Kolding's dynamic compositions encourage us to actively question  the relationship between space and behavior\, and to imagine forms of self-expression that  use the built environment in creative new ways.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:EEB Thursday Seminar Series
DESCRIPTION:Abstract: Meiotic recombination has long been recognized as a driving force of evolution.   However\, little is known about the evolution of meiosis.  To fill this gap\, we take a  variety of approaches to investigate how meiotic processes evolve in plants.  Among  others\, we cloned the ameiotic 1 gene in maize\, which is responsible for the switch  from mitotic cell division to meiosis in maize\, and found that the mechanism of  meiosis initiation differs not only between fungi\, mammals\, and plants but also  between monocot and dicot plants.  We also studied sequence variation in several  meiotic recombination genes in maize and its wild ancestor teosinte and discovered  that a large fraction of these genes were targets of positive selection during maize  domestication and subsequent breeding.  These results suggest that even though  meiosis is an ancient and conserved process some meiotic genes show rapid  evolution.
