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:Lecture / Discussion:Walkers in the City: Young Jewish Women with Cameras
DESCRIPTION:Beginning in the mid-1930s\, a number of young American Jewish women picked up cameras to photograph their urban world. They learned their craft at the New York Photo League (1936-1951)\, a largely Jewish left-wing school and camera club that not only taught photography but also encouraged a way of seeing the world through collaborative projects. Women at the league recognized the city's gendered practices even as they used their cameras to explore its streets. Several\, such as Helen Levitt and Vivian Cherry\, focused initially on children and their games\, finding music\, lyrics\, and dance in their street performances. Others\, such as Lee Sievan and Rebecca Lepkoff\, hung around the city's poor neighborhoods\, especially the Lower East Side\, recording prosaic routines and uncovering grace in them. When viewed retrospectively\, these photographs let us see intimacies of urban life through women's eyes at a time when gender constrained most women's gaze.\n\nDeborah Dash Moore is Frederick G.L. Huetwell Professor of History and director of the U-M Frankel Center for Jewish Studies.

SUMMARY:Performance:Aimee Mann
DESCRIPTION:An intimate evening with one of modern rock's great songwriters.\n\nA fixture of independent pop and rock since her days with the New Wave band 'Til Tuesday in the 1980s\, Los Angeles singer-songwriter Aimee Mann is a powerful creative force. \"I've always been fascinated with eccentric personalities\,\" she says\, and her new CD\, \"Smilers\,\" explores the inner lives of people living far from the bright lights of success or fame. Mann paints spare\, vivid portraits of people who seem to always wind up with the smallest slice of American pie. The songs are soulful\, empathetic and somehow ultimately hopeful and optimistic. Says Aimee: \"When I write about them -- the narcissists\, performers\, eccentrics\, know-it-alls –- it helps me recognize some truths about the world and about myself.\" Longtime Mann fans will find that \"Smilers\" has plenty of the tunefulness they have come to expect from her music\, and newcomers will be struck by the power of her spare language. \"Smilers\" marks a welcome return of unparalleled songcraft from a great American songwriter. Aimee appears this evening with an acoustic trio.
