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:Exhibition:Affinity of Form
DESCRIPTION:A photography exhibition by Stanford Lipsey will open on Thursday\, October 7 and  will run through Tuesday\, November 2\, 2010. The exhibition of 45 digital images\,  titled “Affinity of Form” (which also is the title of his recently published book)\, uses  the juxtaposition of photographs to build a comparative concept within a set of two  images. Lipsey graduated from the University of Michigan in 1948 with a degree in  economics and while a student here he was a photographer for the Michigan Daily  and Photography Editor for the Michiganensian.  The Student Publications Building  was named for Stanford Lipsey in 2005.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:EEB Special Seminar
DESCRIPTION:Abstract: Example of science questions that have no natural disciplinary home but settle into the white space between our disciplinary silos will be presented. We'll discuss how the process of doing research is changing in an effort to answer these questions. Finally\, I'll address how at least some institutions and even the process of discovery itself seem to be adapting to these changes.

SUMMARY:Exercise / Fitness:Wilderness Experience #6 - Backpacking
DESCRIPTION:Explore dunes that date back between 3\,500 and 4\,000 years! We'll enjoy the waves  of sand and waves of water that beautiful Lake Michigan has to offer. On our hike  you will find woody patches of juniper\, stunted jack pine\, some small stands of  northern hardwoods\, and dune marshes with wetland species such as hemlock and  larch. Keep an eye out for the many species of waterfowl and songbirds that have  been identified here\, as well as white-tailed deer\, coyotes\, foxes\, raccoons\,  porcupines\, skunks\, and squirrels. The Nordhouse Dunes Wilderness Area\, with it  extensive shore dunes system\, is the perfect place to get away from it all. While  small\, the area is just 3\,450 acres\, it boasts an impressive title: it is the only  congressionally designated wilderness area located along the Lake Michigan  shoreline in Michigan's Lower Peninsula.

SUMMARY:Performance:Jill Sobule
DESCRIPTION:Jill Sobule's work is at once deeply personal and socially conscious\, seriously funny and derisively tragic. Over five albums and a decade of recording\, this Denver-born songwriter/guitarist/singer has tackled such topics as the death penalty\, anorexia\, shoplifting\, reproduction\, the French resistance movement\, adolescence\, and the Christian right (not to mention kissing a girl\, well before Katy Perry came along). And did we mention love? Love found\, love lost\, love wished for\, and love taken away. Jill often writes satirical songs plotted through the eyes of women in the news or her own fictional female creations\, and she has been compared with the late Warren Zevon\, with whom she often performed. Her latest album\, \"California Years\,\" was entirely funded by listeners she solicited on the Internet.
