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:Lecture / Discussion:Leadership in Politics and Science within the Antarctic Treaty 
DESCRIPTION:With Commentary by HENRY POLLACK\, Professor of Geophysics\, Department of Geological Sciences (ret) and LANA POLLACK\, Chair\, International Joint Commission \n\nCo-sponsored by: the Department of Earth & Environmental Sciences\, Environmental Law & Policy Program\, the Department of Atmospheric\, Oceanic & Space Sciences\, and the School of Natural Resources & the Environment \n\nFor over 50 years the Antarctic has been governed through the Antarctic Treaty\, an international agreement between 46 nations of whom 28 Consultative Parties undertake a management role. These Parties have qualified for their position on scientific grounds. The presentation will examine both the scientific and political outputs of all the Consultative Parties over the last 20 years and demonstrate that a small number of original Parties not only provide most of the science but also set the political agenda for the continent. Generally those countries producing the most science papers have the greatest political output as well. None of the most recent signatories to the Treaty appear to play a major role in managing Antarctica. The Treaty prides itself on its scientific credentials\, but while nations have to demonstrate a substantial science programme to gain consultative status\, there is no process to review science quality or commitment thereafter. The presentation will conclude by highlighting the reputational risk of this policy lacuna and will suggest a way in which it could be addressed. \n\n\nJohn Dudeney has 45 years of professional experience and a lifelong passion in matters relating to the Antarctic.  He joined the British Antarctic Survey in 1966 as an ionospheric physicist and wintered at Faraday (now Vernadsky) Station on the Antarctic Peninsula in 1967 and 1968 (base commander in 1968).  He then worked for BAS in a variety of roles: research scientist\, research leader\, science manager\, head of science division and latterly (until retirement in early 2006)\, as Deputy Director.  He has visited Antarctica 23 times in all. His experience encompasses field work\, science research\, science leadership\, logistics operations and crisis management\, policy making and management at senior level\, health & safety policy\, and international governance of the Antarctic.  Among many external responsibilities\, He was chief officer responsible for solar terrestrial and astronomical research for the Scientific Committee for Antarctic Research from 1992 to 1994. He served as the UK representative to the Council of Managers of National Antarctic Programs (COMNAP) and a member of the UK delegation to the Antarctic Treaty from 1999 to 2005.  He was recipient of the Polar Medal in 1976 and clasp to the polar medal in 1995. In 2004 he was honored with the award of an OBE for services to science.\n\n\nFunding support for STPP Lecture Series provided by the Herbert H. and Grace A. Dow Foundation.

SUMMARY:Performance:Guitar Masters
DESCRIPTION:The celebrated Guitar Masters tour gives axe aficionados and everyone else another chance to see three of the most popular\, talented\, innovative and musically rich acoustic guitar players and composers in contemporary music\, coming together to perform and interact on stage. This show united musicians known for drawing out the full musicality of the solo acoustic guitar to near-orchestral dimensions. Creative sparks\, one-time only stunning improvisations\, and mutual inspiration abound as these musicians come together at the end of every show after performing separate sets. Topeka-born Andy McKee has made the cover of both Acoustic Guitar and Britain's Acoustic magazine this year\; he entertains both the eye and the ear with his use of altered tunings\, tapping\, partial capos\, percussive hits\, and signature two-handed technique. Toronto's Stephen Bennett is an extraordinary musician\, an acknowledged master of the harp guitar\, a challenging teacher\, a gifted composer\, and a performer of astounding sensitivity. The Toronto Fingerstyle Guitar Association calls him “the Jedi Master of Fingerstyle Guitar.” Antoine Dufour has emerged as a young star of fingerstyle acoustic guitar\, building a worldwide reputation for innovation and creativity with six albums of original material released to critical acclaim\, two live DVDs\, and more than 30 million cumulative views on YouTube. Antoine has performed at major venues such as the Montreal International Jazz Festival.
