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:Performance:Nervous But Excited
DESCRIPTION:The \"pleasantly aggressive folk duo\" Nervous but Excited offers dead-on harmony: two songwriters (Kate Peterson and Sarah Cleaver)\, two singers\, two guitars\, a mandolin\, a violin\, a few harmonicas\, some vaguely choreographed dancing\, and a lot of laughter. Their original repertoire ranges in topic from smart\, introspective narratives to the tactfully political\, and they still dabble in the love/post-love variety of song every now and then. Since 2004\, Nervous but Excited has released four full-length albums and four EPs\, and their endless passion has landed them on stages with folks like Ani Difranco\, Iron and Wine\, Utah Phillips\, Ben Gibbard\, Catie Curtis\, and Cheryl Wheeler\, to name a few. They're bringing a new album\, \"You Are Here\,\" that so far has been available only at their live shows.
