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: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:Exhibition:Robert Wilson: Video 50
DESCRIPTION:The tiny dramas that comprise Robert Wilson's Video 50 contain aspects of his hallmark aesthetic: surreal or dream-like imagery\, the absence of a linear narrative\, the conflation of seemingly unrelated characters and micro-stories\, and a mesmerizingly slow pace. Video 50 consists of a randomly arranged set of 30-second \"episodes\,\" a few of which feature notable French personalities of the 1970s-perfumier Hélène Rochas stares down a mugger\, culture minister Michel Guy struggles to open a dresser drawer-and Wilson thought of these as miniature portraits or character studies. The creator and director of aggressively experimental theater\, Wilson first came to prominence with works from the mid-1970s such as The Life and Times of Joseph Stalin (1973) and Einstein on the Beach (1976). These lavish\, unusually long productions broke and then redefined every convention of theater. In Video 50 his shorter time-based portraits explore the intersection of narrative and still-life\, seductively dissolving the distance between viewer and subject.

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:Workshop / Seminar:I Can't Sleep!
DESCRIPTION:Can't sleep? It's not just you. Sleep problems are common among college students yet often not well understood. For example\, most people think that what they do during the day has nothing to do with how well they sleep at night -- it does! This workshop is designed to help students understand the causes of their sleep problems and learn strategies for overcoming them.

SUMMARY:Film Screening:UMS on Film: Absolute Wilson (2006\, Katharina Otto-Bernstein\, 105 min)
DESCRIPTION:Absolute Wilson chronicles the epic life\, times\, and creative genius of theater director Robert Wilson–whose work will be featured UMMA's exhibition of his 1978 video sketchbook Video 50 in the recently opened New Media Gallery (January 7–April 29) and in the UMS presentation of Einstein on the Beach (Power Center for the Performing Arts\, January 20–22). \n\nMore than a biography\, the film becomes an exhilarating exploration of the transformative power of creativity itself\, and the inspirational tale of a boy who grew up as an outsider in the American South only to become a fearless artist with a profoundly original perspective to share with the world. The narrative reveals the deep connections between Wilson's childhood experiences and the haunting beauty of his monumental works\, which include the theatrical sensations Deafman Glance\, Einstein on the Beach\, and the CIVIL warS.\n\nThis program is part of the UMS on Film series designed to expand our understanding of the artists and cultures represented on the UMS season. Each film is introduced by a cultural expert and reveals something of the emotions and ideas behind the creative process. For more information\, please visit http://www.ums.org.
