SUMMARY:Exhibition:Gifts of Art presents A Study in Nature: Gelatin Silver Prints by Darryl Baird
DESCRIPTION:Darryl Baird is Associate Professor of Art at U-M Flint in graphic design and photography. This body of photographic work is a series of highly magnified plant sections offered as homage to natural life cycles and the inherent potential for beauty in mature forms. These images are a means to explore the cycles of all living things and a way to find understanding through the process. For this series\, Baird used antique lenses and the now discontinued Polaroid Positive/Negative 55 film. His work is included in the collections of the Detroit Institute of Art\, Museum of Fine Art in Houston\, Texas and U-M Museum of Art in Ann Arbor.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Gifts of Art presents Connections: Linoleum Block Prints by Elizabeth Busey
DESCRIPTION:Elizabeth Busey has been inspired by global travel to explore the forces that shape our world – growth\, pressure\, erosion and decay. Through this exploration\, she highlights patterns from many disparate perspectives in order to celebrate their universality in the natural world. Her work is created by printing multiple layers of ink onto cotton rag paper\, where a single linoleum block is gradually reduced with each color layer. Busey is a primarily self-taught printmaker who produces her work in Bloomington\, Indiana on a press made of recycled steel.

She grew up on a large family farm in Indiana\, went to University of Illinois\, Champaign-Urbana to earn a BFA in painting\, then to MSU to earn an MFA in sculpture.

These favorite tools are beautifully designed and well-thought out for their specific job.

SUMMARY:Performance:Ingrid Michaelson Fall Acoustic Tour
DESCRIPTION:Ingrid in a stripped-down acoustic setting\n\nStaten Island\, New York songstress Ingrid Michaelson started out singing mellow\, moody\, often very funny folk-pop confections like \"The Way I Am\" (\"I'd buy you Rogaine when you start losing all your hair\"). \"I like obvious\, catchy songs\, but done in a non-obvious way\,\" she told Paste\, which was among the first to note the tremendous buzz around this songwriter\, and recommended her to fans of Regina Spektor\, Feist\, and Tina Fey. Ingrid's success mushroomed\, and lately her songs have been all over the soundtracks of hit television series like \"Grey's Anatomy\,\" \"One Tree Hill\,\" and more. As a composer of pure infectious melody Ingrid is still second to none\, but with her fifth album\, \"Human Again\,\" she pushed herself harder as both a vocalist and writer. Now Ingrid comes to the Power Center (121 Fletcher\, Ann Arbor) with an acoustic quartet\, putting her voice and songs front and center\, in a show that marks the maturing of one of today's generation's favorite artists.

SUMMARY:Performance:Peter Yarrow
DESCRIPTION:An icon of American folk music\n\n\nPeter Yarrow co-wrote \"Puff\, the Magic Dragon\,\" and by any measure he's one of America's most beloved folk singers. With Peter\, Paul & Mary in the 1960s and beyond\, he was part of a group that changed the world of music. He's been active in changing the wider world as well\, and he has never slowed down since the birth of Peter\, Paul & Mary during the Kennedy administration. In 1969 he was one of the organizers of the antiwar March on Washington. In support of the rights of Jews in the former Soviet Union he wrote them anthem \"Don't Let the Light Go Out.\" In 2000 he founded Operation Respect\, a set of school and camp curricula designed to promote a culture of tolerance and respect. Peter's recent appeareances have emphasized music as a shared message and an antidote to mean-spiritedness and intolerance.
