SUMMARY:Exhibition:From Trace to Text: Highlights from the U-M Papyrus Collection
DESCRIPTION:This exhibit provides a behind-the-scenes look at the work of papyrologists: how they conserve scraps of often badly damaged papyri\, decipher traces of ink\, read and translate the resulting text\, edit and interpret its contents\, and make this available to both scholars and the general public. Modern technology\, such as digitization and multi-spectral imaging\, is aiding papyrologists in all of these efforts.\n\nTexts on display are some of the highlights of the collection. They include a wonderful drawing of an elephant\, a letter from a newly enlisted soldier to his mother\, and\, of course\, some pages of the oldest manuscript with letters of St. Paul (one of the most famous texts of the collection).\n\nIn its 90-year history\, the University of Michigan Papyrus Collection has trained more students and scholars in the field of papyrology than any other institution in North America. Founded by the visionary Francis W. Kelsey\, the Papyrus Collection has been the training ground for papyrologists from around the world and home to many great resident scholars\, such as Herbert and Louise Youtie\, Ludwig Koenen\, and Traianos Gagos\, who died on April 26\, 2010.\n\nPapyrology is the field of scholarship that deciphers and studies the texts written –primarily on papyrus– by people living in the ancient Mediterranean world between 2\,500 BCE and 1\,000 CE. Most of these texts are found in Egypt where the climate is dry enough to preserve this fragile material. It is a highly specialized and technical field\, requiring intensive training in language (Egyptian\, ancient Greek\, Latin\, Arabic)\, history\, and the unique set of skills necessary for reading original documents.\n\nThe exhibit is open during Audubon Room hours: Sun 1-7pm\, Mon-Fri 8:30-7pm\, Sat 10am-6pm.\n\nThis Exhibit is in Honor of Traianos Gagos (1960-2010).

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Lecture on the Weather
DESCRIPTION:This multi-media stage work by John Cage\, based on the texts of Henry David Thoreau\, brings together speech\, music\, film\, lighting\, and a weather soundscape to form a softly political piece as relevant today as the year it was written. \n\nCage (1912-1992) was well known as an experimental composer\, philosopher\, writer\, and visual artist. A protean figure of the postwar avant-garde\, Cage collaborated with Merce Cunningham and visual artists including Joseph Beuys\, Robert Rauschenberg\, and Nam June Paik.\n\nExhibit celebration is Nov. 3\, 5-7pm\, in the gallery.

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:The Art and Practice of Film Criticism
DESCRIPTION:Once the province of a few elite voices in the dark\, film criticism\, in the Internet age\, has become an enthusiastic and relentless media cacophony. It is now available everywhere–in newspapers and magazines\, on television and blogs\, written by professionals\, amateurs\, and those who walk the line between them–and this multiplicity of voices\, while it inarguably democratizes the form\, has also raised a defining question: What is film criticism\, and what should it be\, in an era when so many feel entitled to call themselves critics?\n\nIn \"The Art and Practice of Film Criticism\,\" Owen Gleiberman\, a critic for Entertainment Weekly magazine since 1990\, will explore what writing a piece of criticism really is: not just the marshaling of an opinion\, but an attempt to connect with and express the experiential mysteries of watching and understanding a movie.\n\nOwen Gleiberman has been Entertainment Weekly's film critic since the magazine's launch in 1990. He is a graduate of the University of Michigan and Pioneer High School in Ann Arbor.
