SUMMARY:Exhibition:The More Things Change...The Labadie Collection's 100th Anniversary
DESCRIPTION:View selected items from the world’s foremost archive of international radical social protest movements. \"Social protest movements often involve intense passion\, so expect to see some edgy and offensive items on display\,\" says Labadie Collection curator Julie Herrada.\n\nThe Labadie Collection is the world’s largest publicly accessible research collection covering just about every 19th\, 20th\, and 21st century protest movement that can be documented on paper\, from the French Revolution to Occupy Wall Street. It has served as a resource for thousands of people the world over\, from high school students to seasoned researchers\, from young activists in search of their roots to documentary filmmakers unearthing eye-catching images. Books\, serials\, manuscripts\, pamphlets\, photographs\, audio recordings\, posters\, and political buttons are all part of this eclectic group of materials.\n\nView the exhibit during Audubon Room hours: Mon-Thurs 8:30am-7pm\, Fri 8:30am-6pm\, Sat 10am-6pm\, Sun 1pm-7pm

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Fluxus and the Essential Questions of Life
DESCRIPTION:Fluxus emerged in the early 1960s as a loose\, international network of artists\, composers\, and designers-\"led\" by Lithuanian-born American artist George Maciunas (1931-1978)- that was noted for blurring the boundaries between art and life. Fluxus artists like Maciunas\, Nam June Paik\, George Brecht\, and Yoko Ono\, among many others\, challenged the notion of high art by creating unassuming\, often humorous objects and performances that redefined the terms of artistic production by demonstrating the idea that \"anything can be art and anyone can do it.\" Because of their disregard for traditional artistic media\, many of the objects in the exhibition are-often by design-acutely resistant to conventional forms of museum display. Variously conceived as carriers of ideas\, absurdist send-ups of consumer products\, and invitations to direct\, playful participation by the viewer\, these works attempt to undermine the idea that art is separate from the activity of living one's life. Through 116 works\, Fluxus and the Essential Questions of Life will introduce visitors to the study and appreciation of art as an exciting and intellectually rewarding experience\, and to the notion that art is something that can play an active role in their own approaches to life's essential questions.\n\nThis exhibition was organized by the Hood Museum of Art and was generously supported by Constance and Walter Burke\, Dartmouth College Class of 1944\, the Marie-Louise and Samuel R. Rosenthal Fund\, and the Ray Winfield Smith 1918 Fund. UMMA's installation is made possible in part by the University of Michigan Health System\, the University of Michigan Office of the Provost\, Arts at Michigan\, and the CEW Frances and Sydney Lewis Visiting Leaders Fund.

SUMMARY:Performance:Life Sciences Orchestra concert: A Flood of Sound
DESCRIPTION:A wave of music will wash over the audience on Thursday\, May 3\, as the University of Michigan Life Sciences Orchestra plays a free water-themed concert of classical works to celebrate spring.\n\nThe performance\, which will begin at 7:30 p.m. at Ann Arbor’s famed Hill Auditorium\, will feature works by Beethoven\, Mendelssohn\, Respighi and Wagner.\n\nIt is free and open to all ages\, with a suggested admission of $1. No tickets are required. Martin Philbert\, Ph.D.\, dean of the U-M School of Public Health\, will give opening remarks.\n\nLSO music director Oriol Sans has chosen water-inspired pieces from four major classical composers\, which he and assistant conductor Matthew B. Dell will conduct. They are:\n\n- The Hebrides Overture by Felix Mendelssohn\, inspired by the composer’s trip to Fingal’s Cave\, a sea cavern in Scotland’s Hebrides Islands \n\n- Fountains of Rome by Ottorino Respighi\, depicting four of Rome’s fountains during different times of the day \n\n- The Overture to The Flying Dutchman\, from an opera in which Richard Wagner tells the tale of a sea captain doomed to sail the seas forever \n\n- Symphony No. 6\, op. 68\, in F Major by Ludwig van Beethoven\, often called the “Pastoral” symphony for its themes of babbling brooks\, thunderstorms\, and carousing peasants. \n\nSans is a recent graduate of\, and Dell is a student in\, the noted orchestral conducting program at the U-M School of Music\, Theatre\, and Dance.\n\nFor more information on the concert or the LSO\, visit www.umich.edu/~lsorch or www.facebook.com/umlso\, send e-mail to orchestra@umich.edu\, or call (734) 936-ARTS.
