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:UMMA Projects: Simon Dybbroe Møller
DESCRIPTION:Things are not always as they seem in the work of Simon Dybbroe Møller. Indeed\, the Danish artist's works can at times appear to have been teleported from a slightly askew\, alternate version of the past. Seemingly familiar forms often appear in unexpected configurations and objects we think we recognize turn out to be something else entirely. An abstract wall painting emerges from beneath a layer of peeling plaster. A group of minimalist sculptures turn out to be the pieces of an enlarged Soma cube. This uncertainty is central to the experience of Dybbroe Møller's work\, where an initial misrecognition leads to a moment of aesthetic discovery.\n\nDybbroe Møller's penchant for puzzles and paradoxes reflects his interest in modernism's theoretical aspirations as well as its practical failings. Similarly\, his frequent adoption of “outmoded” media both provides him with a diverse artistic palette and a means of questioning the past century's faith in progress through technology and the avant-garde promise of continual artistic development.\n\nFor Dybbroe Møller's first solo exhibition in a North American museum\, UMMA will present a new body of work that continues his ongoing engagement with and critique of the modernist paradigm of transparency.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Population genetic and genomic studies of species divergence in flies and figs\, presented by Dr. Carlos Machado\, University of Maryland
DESCRIPTION:Abstract: Population genetic and genome sequence data are useful to understand processes of species divergence because they allow studying the roles played by gene flow and natural selection during this process and their consequences on patterns of genomic differentiation. I will describe studies of this type conducted in the classic species Drosophila pseudoobscura and its close relatives D. p. bogotana and D. persimilis. I will also describe gene expression work aimed at understanding the mechanisms of phenotypic differentiation between D. persimilis and D. pseudoobscura. A phenotype we have uncovered in hybrids of the two species may allow us making a connection between the divergence of these two species of Drosophila and their ecology. In the second part of the talk I will provide an overview of evolutionary genetic studies in the fig/fig wasp mutualism\, focusing on population genetic studies of species divergence and studies of the effect of inbreeding on levels of population genetic variation.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:Penny Stamps Presents: Natasha Tsakos
DESCRIPTION:Playwright and performer Natasha Tsakos works in a brave new form of theater\, where sound\, computer-generated images and the performer move in sync to create a dreamlike yet sharply real stage environment. Within this space of total possibility\, Tsakos muses on the deepest questions of the human soul.\n\nA Swiss-born artist living in Miami\, Tsakos has been a performer with Circ X and the Big Apple Circus\, and writes\, teaches and performs her own work in Miami and worldwide. She's the author of several plays and one-acts\, a few collections of poetry and the cartoon “The Eskimans\,” about a penguin and an Eskimo.

SUMMARY:Performance:Ring of Steel Action Theatre
DESCRIPTION:Theatrical combat is a multidisciplinary art that combines acting with elements of  fencing\, martial arts\, dance\, and music to develop a safe and effective  performance. It is a distinct area of study\; essentially a marital art where the focus  is not to injure your partner. As with any martial art\, years of training are needed  before an individual is prepared to safely share their skills on the stage.\n\nThe Ring of Steel offers theatrical combat training in a wide range of weapons and  combat styles\, based in large part on Aikido and late period rapier.
