SUMMARY:Exhibition:My Right Self: An Exhibit Exploring Issues of Gender and Identity
DESCRIPTION:Transgender issues and rights are particularly relevant to contemporary questions of social justice and human rights as they inherently invoke conversations on sex\, gender\, sexuality\, behavior\, and sociopolitical hierarchies of power which affect all aspects of society. These images (and accompanying text) are meant to confront and dispel myths and misperceptions around marginalized and disenfranchised communities.\n\nFacebook event link: \nhttps://www.facebook.com/event.php?eid=212614895471160\n\nMain library page exhibit link: \nhttp://bit.ly/nNkkGb\n\nOnline exhibit:\nhttp://www.myrightself.org\n

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:Face of Our Time: Jacob Aue Sobol\, Jim Goldberg\, Zanele Muholi\, Daniel Schwartz\, Richard Misrach
DESCRIPTION:Face of Our Time examines more than 100 works by five photographers–Jacob Aue Sobol\, Jim Goldberg\, Zanele Muholi\, Daniel Schwartz\, and Richard Misrach–who operate within what Walker Evans referred to as the \"documentary style.\" Sharing an interest in making pictures that capture what the world looks like\, they observe the sometimes volatile civil and political transformations facing society and look reflectively at contemporary culture\, recording history as it unfolds slowly over time. Aue Sobol's gentle and sculptural pictures reveal the hardships of life in the Arctic\; Goldberg's multilayered series includes fragmented narratives from the migration of illegal immigrants from Africa to Europe\; Muholi commemorates and celebrates the histories and struggles that black lesbians face in her native South Africa\; Schwartz reveals the overlapping narratives between the Silk Route's ancient history and the military and economic power struggles that it faces today\; and the Richard Misrach photographs\, from his recently published book\, Destroy This Memory\, are an informal\, yet personal collection of pictures taken in the aftermath of the Hurricane Katrina tragedy in New Orleans.\n\nFace of Our Time: Jacob Aue Sobol\, Jim Goldberg\, Zanele Muholi\, Daniel Schwartz\, Richard Misrach is organized by the San Francisco Museum of Modern Art. Generous support is provided by Pro Helvetia\, Swiss Arts Council.\n\nFace of Our Time at UMMA is made possible in part by the Lois Zenkel Photographic Exhibitions Fund\, the University of Michigan Health System\, and the University of Michigan Office of the Provost and CEW Frances and Sydney Lewis Visiting Leaders Fund. \n\nImage caption: Jim Goldberg\, Making Fire\, Democratic Republic of Congo\, 2008\; chromogenic print\; 30 in. x 40 in.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Mark di Suvero: Tabletops
DESCRIPTION:Preeminent American sculptor Mark di Suvero (b. 1933) is best known for his dynamic and monumental works made of industrial steel and salvaged materials that populate museum grounds\, landscapes\, and urban environments around the world. In addition to countless exhibitions and awards\, in March 2011 di Suvero was honored with the National Medal of the Arts by President Obama in a White House ceremony. This exhibition\, organized by UMMA and on view exclusively in Ann Arbor\, features approximately 15 of di Suvero's rarely exhibited smaller scale pieces\, or tabletops\, from the 1950s to the present. The tabletops are not maquettes of larger-scale works but an expressionistic and engaging genre all their own\, an outlet for exploring ideas relating to the calligraphic nature of form\, balance\, proportion\, and movement. Drawing from numerous private collections as well as the artist's studio\, the exhibition offers the opportunity to experience this intimate work in the Museum's ground level\, glass-walled Irving Stenn\, Jr\, Family Project Gallery\, adjacent to the two di Suvero outdoor steel sculptures on the Museum's grounds–Orion (2006) and Shang (1984–85).\n\nThis exhibition is made possible in part by the Office of the President of the University of Michigan\, the University of Michigan Health System\, and Laura Lynch and Hugh McPherson.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Mike Kelley: Day Is Done
DESCRIPTION:UMMA inaugurates its New Media Gallery this fall with Mike Kelley's \"Day is Done\,\" which continues the artist's career-long investigation into the relationships between order and transgression\, popular and avant-garde culture\, while touching on contemporary notions of trauma and repressed memory. \"Day is Done\" comprises parts two through thirty-two of Kelley's multifaceted and ongoing project \"Extracurricular Activity Projective Reconstructions\,\" a body of work envisioned to eventually include 365 parts\, one for each day of the year. Its thirty-one episodes are based on a series of photographs\, culled from high-school yearbooks\, depicting various \"extracurricular activities\,\" specifically those that represent what Kelley has termed \"socially accepted rituals of deviance\": dress-up days\, religious performances\, fashion shows\, singles mixers\, and talent shows\, among others.\n

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Recent Acquisitions: Curator's Choice\, Part I
DESCRIPTION:This is the first part of a two-part exhibition introducing exciting\, recently acquired works from UMMA's collections gifted to the museum during the past five years. Recent Acquisitions: Curator's Choice\, Part I presents a first look at artworks\, mostly prints\, drawings\, and photographs by artists as diverse as Annie Leibovitz\, Edward Steichen\, and Rembrandt van Rijn. Carole McNamara\, Senior Curator of Western Art\, chose works that focus on some of the enduring and compelling themes that have occupied artists in Europe and America. One is the preoccupation with the human form as an expression of ideas\, feelings\, and sensations. This selection begins with the tradition of the academic nude study and progresses to embrace different genres\, from both secular and religious contexts. Another selection-landscapes and cityscapes-are each opportunities for artists to speak to our relationship to the natural world-both in how we experience landscape as well as how we construct our own urban environments.\n\nThis exhibition is made possible in part by the University of Michigan Office of the Provost.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:Libraries Without Borders
DESCRIPTION:Patrick Weil\, president of Libraries Without Borders\, discusses the work of the 501(c)(3) non-profit organization devoted to facilitating the growth of libraries in the developing world. Access to knowledge is a key factor in social and economic development. By facilitating the growth of libraries in Africa\, Asia and the Americas\, LWB aims to provide the knowledge that is the engine of human development.\n\nWith staff in New York and California\, LWB is an office of Libraries Without Borders / Bibliothèques Sans Frontières (LWB/BSF)\, an international network of associations working together to promote knowledge-based development in under-served areas of the world. Created in 2007 on the initiative of Weil\, LWB/BSF today has offices in France\, Belgium and the United States. Together\, they oversee more than 20 programs in 15 countries.\n\nThe offices of Libraries Without Borders share a threefold ambition: to support formal and informal education by assisting in the development of school and university libraries\, to promote access to reading by establishing public and associational libraries and supporting local publishing and book networks\, and to safeguard and promote local heritage and knowledge by helping to preserve the oral and written record.\n

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:“Intended and Unintended Consequences of School Accountability”
DESCRIPTION:Abstract\nSchool accountability systems are intended to lead schools to educate children more efficiently and raise student performance. However\, accountability systems also provide incentives for educators to attempt to manipulate the system so that they look as good as possible. This presentation provides evidence on the desired and unintended consequences of school accountability. I focus on how the design of school accountability system can affect these various consequences\, and offer some lessons that states can take to heart as they plan their No Child Left Behind Act waiver proposals this winter.\n\nDavid Figlio is the Orrington Lunt Professor of Education and Social Policy and Economics and Fellow of the Institute for Policy Research at Northwestern University.

SUMMARY:Film Screening:Spectrum Center 40th Anniversary Film Series: \"Two Spirits\"
DESCRIPTION:In honor of Native American Heritage Month and Transgender Awareness Week\, please join the Spectrum Center and UUAP for our November film series event! \nAfter the film we will be hosting a discussion led by Anishinaabemowin instructor Dr. Margaret Noori on two-spirited people in indigenous culture. Dr. Noori is the director of the Comprehensive Studies Program and a lecturer in the American Culture Program. \n\nRefreshments will be provided.\n\nTWO SPIRITS interweaves the tragic story of a mother’s loss of her son with a revealing look at a time when the world wasn’t simply divided into male and female and many Native American cultures held places of honor for people of integrated genders.\n\nFred Martinez was nádleehí\, a male-bodied person with a feminine nature\, a special gift according to his ancient Navajo culture. But the place where two discriminations meet is a dangerous place to live\, and Fred became one of the youngest hate-crime victims in modern history when he was brutally murdered at sixteen. Between tradition and controversy\, sex and spirit\, and freedom and fear\, lives the truth–the bravest choice you can make is to be yourself.

SUMMARY:Performance:Sweetback Sisters
DESCRIPTION:The Sweetback Sisters are a honky-tonk band from Brooklyn. Like their pseudo-sister role models\, the Davis Sisters\, the Sweetback Sisters sing country songs in close\, surrogate-sister harmony and matching dresses. Their repertoire combines country music from before they were born and new interpretations of those traditions to create a fresh take on what it means to be country. Their debut EP \"Bang!\" was released in early 2007 and earned them a spot on the \"Prairie Home Companion\" talent contest for 20-somethings\, and they recently released their second full-length album\, \"Looking for a Fight.\" Their charismatic charm harkens back to the golden era of both the silver screen cowgirl and the ersatz cowboy stars of local UHF TV kiddie shows. That whimsical exterior is wrapped around a core of deeply felt love for traditional country music styles and a palpable joy in playing and singing together. In the words of the All Music Guide\, \"The Sweetback Sisters achieve the difficult task of approaching their frankly old-fashioned music with an enthusiasm that is not devoid of humor\, yet never descends into parody.\"
