SUMMARY:Exhibition:Loops 3D Video Installation 
DESCRIPTION: The OpenEnded Group residency with the U-M Institute for the Humanities encompasses two installations. Loops\, in the Institute for the Humanities gallery on central campus\, is a 3D representation of Merce Cunningham’s solo dance for his hands. The choreography is accompanied by a recording of Cunningham reading excerpts from his journals. These sensory elements serve as artifact and capture the labyrinthine relationship between reminiscence\, erasure\, and re-invention. See event listing for related exhibit by the OpenEnded Group: \"plant\,\" a 3D investigation of the abandoned Packard auto plant in Detroit.

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:EEB Thursday Seminar Series - Special Time!
DESCRIPTION:Adaptation is widespread in nature. Despite its obvious importance\, we know little about how adaptation evolves. Dr. Chan will start by describing what we have learnt from classical genetic mapping that connect single adaptive mutations to phenotypic variation and population divergence. Then discuss the application of a new approach\, Parallel Selection Mapping\, to uncover the genetic basis of a polygenic trait in artificially selected laboratory mice and naturally selected wild mice.\n\nBodyweight is a classical complex trait controlled by many genes that has been difficult to dissect genetically. It affects fitness and shows parallel increases in island populations of rodents (island gigantism). In a number of independent mouse experiments starting in the 1970s\, it has been subjected to long-term artificial selection. By applying parallel selection mapping to these artificial selection lines\, Dr. Chan will demonstrate how we can tackle the bodyweight complex trait\, and break it down into its individual genetic components. In doing so\, he will show how we can systematically identify loci controlling parallel adaptation via re-use of standing genetic variation.\n\nDr. Chan will discuss several general principles emerging from the genome-wide pattern\, including the importance of pre-existing genetic variation to adaptation\; the clustered genetic architecture and nature of a multilocus response to selection\; and the connection between loci under artificial and natural selection\, such as island gigantism. He will end by discussing some of the emerging results from the first genome-wide molecular study of the wild populations of gigantic Faroese mice\, and our current effort in investigating how they have evolved to be among of the largest wild mice in the world.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:plant 3D Video Installation 
DESCRIPTION:This premiere of new work exploring the abandoned Packard plant in Detroit is created by Paul Kaiser\, the 2011 Kidder Resident in the Arts at the U-M Institute for the Humanities and the OpenEnded Group. The OpenEnded Group shot over 10\,000 images of every detail of the plant\, then used these as raw material to create the completed composition. The resulting 20-foot projection captures the enormity of the site: the vastness of deserted corridors\, the sheer drops of stairwells\, and the incongruity of the open sky. Recorded ambient sound punctuates the piece with scattered signs of life and the unsettling randomness of events.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:Conversations on Europe. “Between Empire and Gaddafi: Italian Settlers in Libya\, 1943-1960.\"
DESCRIPTION:Pamela Ballinger \nFred Cuny Professor of the History of Human Rights\nAssociate Professor of History\nUniversity of Michigan\n\n\nAlthough the end of Italian colonialism is often treated as abrupt and definitive as a result of Italy's military defeat in World War II\, Italian settlers remained in Libya until their expulsion by the Gaddafi regime in 1970. In this talk\, Professor Ballinger examines the experiences of Italians in the rural villages created under fascism\, the complicated processes of repatriation\, and the ways in which settlers found their mobilities similarly constrained during and after the colonial era. She will argue that reconceptualizing the end of empire in  Libya as a “long” decolonization enables us to see marked continuities in the experiences of Italians in rural Libya.\n\nPamela Ballinger is Fred Cuny Professor of the History of Human Rights and associate professor of history at the University of Michigan. She is the author of History in Exile (Princeton University Press\, 2003). Her research focuses on refugees and displacement\, repatriation\, and memory. Her work has appeared in journals such as Comparative Studies in Society and History\, Past and Present\, Current Anthropology\, Journal of Modern Italian Studies\, and History and Memory.\n

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:EEB Thursday Seminar Series
DESCRIPTION:Knowledge of the features that contribute to the persistence of an ecological community is critical in efforts to preserve biodiversity. Food webs\, the network of trophic interactions in an ecosystem\, provide a representational manner to investigate many such questions about whole ecosystem behavior. Over the past few decades\, scientists have begun to develop a clear picture of key components that describe empirical network structure. Nevertheless\, the dynamic implications of many these structural features remain to be examined. We investigate the link between food-web structure and dynamics to understand what determines an ecological community's ability to respond to perturbations\, such as species extinctions. Whether at the level of individual species or of whole communities\, we observe a ubiquitous pattern. The architecture of empirical food webs works to significantly increase their persistence\, helping to reconcile the simultaneous complexity and stability of natural communities.

SUMMARY:Presentation:John Weir - Day With(out) Art: World AIDS Day
DESCRIPTION:John Weir is the author of two novels\, What I Did Wrong (Viking\, 2006)\, and The Irreversible Decline of Eddie Socket (HarperCollins\, 1989)\, which won the 1990 Lambda Literary Award for Best First Novel by a Gay Man. His fiction and nonfiction have appeared in numerous magazines and journals\, including Rolling Stone\, Spin\, and Details\, as well as Ploughshares\, Gulf Coast\, and Subtropics. \n\nDuring the 1980s and early 1990s\, Weir was involved both in Gay Men’s Health Crisis and ACT UP/New York\, culminating in his January\, 1991 appearance on The CBS Evening News With Dan Rather\, when he and two other AIDS activists interrupted Rather’s news broadcast\, chanting\, “Money for AIDS\, not for war: AIDS won’t wait.” He is also a prolific critic who has written music\, book\, and movie reviews for major newspapers and magazines. As Contributing Editor to Details from 1993 to 1996\, he interviewed gay marines in Jacksonville\, North Carolina just after President Clinton lifted the ban on lesbians and gays in the military\; and he visited the Springs of Life Ministry\, the Christian evangelical church in Lancaster\, California that produced The Gay Agenda\, an anti-gay video that was sent to members of Congress during the deliberations that resulted in Don’t Ask/Don’t Tell. For Details\, he also retraced Timothy McVeigh’s route from Kingman\, Arizona to Oklahoma City in the week before McVeigh blew up the Alfred P. Murrah Federal Building\; and for Rolling Stone\, he wrote about 9/11 and Hurricane Katrina. Other non-fiction publications include essays about Queer Eye for the Straight Guy\, pop star Fiona Apple\, Jack Kerouac’s original (queer(er)) draft of On the Road\, and John Cheever’s homophobia and closeted bisexuality and wonderful sentences. He is currently at work on two book-length manuscripts\, one fiction and one non-fiction. \n\nHe has taught Creative Writing as a Visiting Professor in the University of Houston's MFA program\, and since 1993 he has taught at Queens College of the City University of New York\, where he is currently Director of Graduate Studies in English\, and where he teaches in the MFA in Creative Writing and Literary Translation. The author will be available to sign books after the reading. As always\, books are available for purchase in the Museum Store. \n\nUMMA is pleased to be the site for the Department of English Program in Creative Writing Zell Visiting Writers Series\, which brings outstanding writers each semester. The Series is made possible through a generous gift from UM alumna Helen Zell (’64). For more information\, please see www.lsa.umich.edu/english/grad/mfa/mfaeve.asp.

SUMMARY:Performance:Judy Collins
DESCRIPTION:Judy Collins has thrilled audiences worldwide with her unique blend of folksong interpretations and contemporary themes. Her career has spanned more than 50 years. In 1961 Judy released her first album\, \"A Maid of Constant Sorrow.\" at the age of 22 and began a thirty-five year association with Jac Holzman and Elektra Records. She interpreted the songs of fellow artists\, particularly the social poets of the time such as Bob Dylan\, Phil Ochs and Tom Paxton.  Judy was instrumental in bringing singer-songwriters to a wider audience\, including Bob Dylan\, Phil Ochs\, Tom Paxton\, Leonard Cohen\, Joni Mitchell\, and Randy Newman. Judy's career has included new album releases in every decade since the 1960s\, and she's written books including \"Sanity & Grace\,\" a memoir focusing on the death of her only son and the healing process that followed. Her newest projects are a CD\, \"Paradise\,\" and \"Over the Rainbow\,\" a terrific oversized children's picture book and CD. Now 71\, Judy Collins is still a relentlessly creative spirit who's writing\, performing 80 to 100 dates a year\, and nurturing fresh talent. Her set at last winter's Ann Arbor Folk Festival was certainly one of the highlights\, but now you have a very rare chance to hear the music of Judy Collins\, up close and personal.

DESCRIPTION:Everything depends on politics. Those of us with limited budgets have been faced with limited options when it comes to our healthcare. However\, maybe we have more choices? Under Obama's 2010 Affordable Care Act\, alternative medicine is included in health insurance! \nBut the USA healthcare system\, which focuses on drugs and surgery\, is still flawed\; change does not happen overnight. WE ARE the voice of our government. It is with our knowledge\, decisions\, and actions that we can improve our own health\, and the health of our nation.\n\nMichigan Alternative Medicine Club invites Steven Hernandez\, Southeast Michigan Regional Coordinator for Michigan Consumers for Healthcare (MCH)\, to speak. \n\nFor more information\, go to http://consumersforhealthcare.org/michigan-consumers-healthcare

SUMMARY:Performance:Judy Collins
DESCRIPTION:Judy Collins has thrilled audiences worldwide with her unique blend of folksong interpretations and contemporary themes. Her career has spanned more than 50 years. In 1961 Judy released her first album\, \"A Maid of Constant Sorrow.\" at the age of 22 and began a thirty-five year association with Jac Holzman and Elektra Records. She interpreted the songs of fellow artists\, particularly the social poets of the time such as Bob Dylan\, Phil Ochs and Tom Paxton.  Judy was instrumental in bringing singer-songwriters to a wider audience\, including Bob Dylan\, Phil Ochs\, Tom Paxton\, Leonard Cohen\, Joni Mitchell\, and Randy Newman. Judy's career has included new album releases in every decade since the 1960s\, and she's written books including \"Sanity & Grace\,\" a memoir focusing on the death of her only son and the healing process that followed. Her newest projects are a CD\, \"Paradise\,\" and \"Over the Rainbow\,\" a terrific oversized children's picture book and CD. Now 71\, Judy Collins is still a relentlessly creative spirit who's writing\, performing 80 to 100 dates a year\, and nurturing fresh talent. Her set at last winter's Ann Arbor Folk Festival was certainly one of the highlights\, but now you have a very rare chance to hear the music of Judy Collins\, up close and personal.\n
