SUMMARY:Exhibition:Waiting for the Extraordinary
DESCRIPTION:In “Waiting for the Extraordinary\,” a new site-specific installation commissioned by the U-M Institute for the Humanities gallery\, Dion focuses his enquiry on Michigan Chief Justice Augustus Woodward’s territorial act of 1817\, establishing a “Catholepistemiad\, or University of Michigania.” Woodward harbored a dream of classifying all human knowledge and had discussed this with his friend and mentor Thomas Jefferson. His plan would remain a blueprint for the university until 1872\, when Henry Tappan became its first appointed president and instituted a German model of education more in line with the U-M we know today.\n\nWoodward’s handwritten list from the period outlined thirteen different professorships\, or “diaadaxiim\,” which followed an idiosyncratic system of classifications. He invented outlandish words for these\, mixing Greek and Latin\, resulting in alliterative designations such as Anthropoglossica (Literature)\, Physiosophica (Natural Philosophy)\, and Latrica (Medicine)\, to name a few.\n\nFor the Institute for the Humanities project\, Mark Dion imagines what objects would best represent these classifications and sets out to find them in the many departments and collections within the university. As he embarks upon this ambitious and idealistic quest\, the result is as much an expedition as a scavenger hunt\, in part Aristotle as well as Don Quixote. In a week’s time\, he locates a magpie\, a meteorite\, a celestial globe\, a flask\, a bugle\, and then a heart. \n\nEach artifact is reproduced using 3D rapid imaging technology at the U-M Duderstadt Center\, coated with phosphorescent paint\, and then exhibited in a manner suggestive of post-nuclear hallowed halls.\n\nBut first\, visitors to the gallery take a number\, are seated in a waiting room\, a carbon copy in itself. It is the familiar experience encountered in every institution\, at the dentist’s office\, or the DMV. We are waiting\, just waiting”¦for the extraordinary.\n\nMark Dion’s work considers scientific method and museum practice and their influence on our understanding of history\, the natural world\, and what we know to be true. His work questions the hard line between rational thought and unadulterated subjectivity. Although conceptual\, Dion’s projects serve as formal critiques\, examining the relationship between the human experience as we know it and the institutions\, museums\, and galleries that predetermine it.

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: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:Recreational / Games:Outdoor Adventures
DESCRIPTION:Explore dunes that date back between 3\,500 and 4\,000 years\; stand tall on the dunes and look out over Lake Michigan!:join Outdoor Adventures on our trip to Nordhouse Dunes! 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 its 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:Jorma Kaukonen
DESCRIPTION:Jorma Kaukonen is one of the most important guitarists of our time with a body of work that has grown over four decades now. His brilliant finger-picked fretwork and songwriting\, blending rock\, blues\, folk and country influences\, helped make stars out of Jefferson Airplane and its equally legendary (and still active) spinoff band Hot Tuna. Now\, he says\, \"I find myself living a simple life with my music.\" His shows are steeped in acoustic country and blues roots\, and they have a quiet mastery that's really something to see. Jorma has been very active in the studio\, and his latest solo album\, \"River of Time\" (featuring Levon Helm on drums)\, mixes Kaukonen originals\, some of them from the Hot Tuna songbag\, with classic country and blues done Jorma-style. You can also come by and pick up a copy of \"Steady As She Goes\,\" the first Hot Tuna studio album in two decades.

SUMMARY:Performance:Vienna Teng
DESCRIPTION:The San Jose Mercury News likened Vienna Teng to \"a child of Chopin and Sarah McLachlan\,\" and she took her first name in adulthood as an homage to the city of Mozart and Beethoven. Even as a newcomer to the concert stage\, she wrote songs so graceful and memorable that you realized only slowly how personal and confessional they really are. Vienna has been writing songs and playing the piano since she was six\, and her silvery piano stylings seem intricately woven into her soothing vocals. A few years ago Vienna Teng came to southeastern Michigan for the first time–and we fell in love. This artist has a real bond with Michigan audiences\, and recently it turned out that the love affair between Vienna Teng and Michigan was mutual: she moved to Ann Arbor to study for a master's in sustainable enterprise at the U-M.\n\nVienna's set at the Ann Arbor Folk Festival last winter gave a hint of how this remarkable artist has moved far beyond piano pop to create something absolutely distinctive. And ever since then\, we at The Ark have been working to present Vienna Teng in concert in her new home of southeastern Michigan\, with the canvas of a full evening available for her musical imagination. The LA Weekly says that Vienna's \"engaging voice\, insightful lyrics and reflective piano-driven chamber folk pack quite the punch\,\" and it's true–if you've never heard Vienna Teng before\, she'll knock you out. If you've already experienced her\, you'll know why this is going to be one of the hot tickets of the fall music scene in Michigan.
