SUMMARY:Exhibition:Ben Yomen: Labor Cartoons from the 1940s
DESCRIPTION:Cartoons as a weapon. Ben Yomen used cartoons to fight bosses he felt had no respect for their laborers and to ridicule an American Congress he felt had no respect for its constituents. Many of his cartoons that were published in the 1940s have such a timeless message that they could have been published in 2011.\n\nIn a 1943 Federated Press survey\, Yoman was voted \"most popular cartoonist in the labor press today\" by AFL (American Federation of Labor)\, CIO (Congress of Industrial Organizations) and Railroad Brotherhood editors.  His cartoons documented the labor struggles of the day.\n\nThis collection of Ben Yoman cartoons is part of the Joseph A. Labadie Collection in the U-M Special Collections Library. The Labadie Collection is the oldest research collection of radical history in the United States\, documenting a wide variety of international social protest movements of the nineteenth and twentieth centuries. It is named for anarchist and labor organizer Joseph Antoine Labadie (1850-1933).

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Pictures of Resistance: The Wartime Photographs of Jewish Partisan Faye Schulman
DESCRIPTION:The lives of WWII partisans depended on their ability to remain unseen\, undocumented and unidentifiable. But one fighter\, Faye Schulman\, had a camera. Schulman’s rare collection of images captures the camaraderie\, horror and loss\, bravery and triumph of the rag-tag\, tough partisans–some Jewish\, some not–who fought the Germans and their collaborators.\n\nSchulman\, the only known Jewish partisan photographer\, says of the exhibit\, “I want people to know that there was resistance. Jews did not go like sheep to the slaughter. I was a photographer. I have pictures. I have proof.”\n\nCo-sponsored by the University of Michigan Library and the Frankel Center for Judaic Studies.\n\nThis exhibit was produced by the Jewish Partisan Educational Foundation and curated by Jill Vexler\, Ph.D. It was made possible by Thomas and Johanna Baruch\, the Epstein/Roth Foundation\, the Purjes Foundation\, the Charles and Lynn Schusterman Family Foundation\, the Koret Foudnation\, the Taube Foundation for Jewish Life and culture\, the Holocaust Council of UJA MetroWest\, and Diane and Howard Wohl.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:UMMA Projects: Amalia Pica
DESCRIPTION:Motivated by a desire for civic participation\, Amalia Pica's work often takes the form of temporary interventions on buildings\, monuments\, or objects\, documenting the artist's insertion of her own body into the landscape or her subtle alteration of it. The London-based Argentinian artist (b. 1978) works primarily with sculpture\, photography\, film\, and installation\, adopting a conceptual approach marked by wit and a sense of play. Perception\, time\, memory\, and a sense of how particular gestures read in different cultural contexts are central to Pica's work\, alternately highlighting moments of connection and disjunction. The promise - as well as the uncertainty - of communication is a persistent concern in Pica's oeuvre. Megaphones\, antennae\, podiums\, and signal flags are recurring motifs\, though rarely are these devices shown in a moment of use. Depicted at rest or disconnected from their functionality\, they become figures for potential communication\, carriers of a message that always remains hypothetical.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:William Faulkner's Artifacts of Authorships
DESCRIPTION:William Faulkner is one of the most important novelists in the American tradition\, and his work represents an endlessly generative confluence of cultural\, historical\, and literary frictions. Faulkner’s writing is famous for its poetic density and beauty\, but his process and the editorial history of his work present layers of interpretive complication and depth that remain under-examined by scholars. This exhibit highlights some of the fascinating and meaningful discrepancies evident from Faulkner’s manuscripts to his publisher’s galleys and between various print editions of his most famous novels.\n\nItems are from the Irwin T. and Shirley Holtzman Collection of William Faulkner\, which is a comprehensive collection of published Faulkner materials. Many first editions of books and short stories will be on display as well as original University of Mississippi yearbook illustrations\, and reproductions of manuscripts. The exhibit focuses on the complex editorial history of Faulkner's work\, including his approach to revision (including alterations he made to his stories and characters between different forms of publication and different editions). Materials range in date from 1917-1969.\n\nView the exhibit during Special Collections Library hours: Mon-Fri.\, 10am-5pm.

SUMMARY:Performance:Chris Thile & Michael Daves
DESCRIPTION:It's back to bluegrass for Punch Brothers mandolinist Chris Thile and guitarist Michael Daves! Their new duo album\, Sleep with One Eye Open\, draws on classic numbers from Bill Monroe\, Lester Flatt\, and Earl Scruggs. Songs like “Loneliness and Desperation” and the title track emphasize rollicking\, rapid-fire arrangements that serve to mask the most sorrowful of feelings. But\, as you might expect\, it's not quite traditional music. Says Chris: \"Mandolin and guitar and two male voices–it’s such a good sound. What was important for us was to get that brother duet thing but with this Lower East Side punk energy. One of the most enjoyable things about this experience was to underline the slightly delinquent side of bluegrass.\" Chris and Michael call their new enterprise \"an impassioned collaboration/conversation .. in which the subject is bluegrass\, specifically how this upstart duo can acknowledge history and tradition while exuberantly defying convention.\" Exuberant is the right word!
