SUMMARY:Exhibition:Canan Tolon Installation: Time After Time
DESCRIPTION:Canan Tolon’s paintings and installations serve as visual records of the passing of time. Each swipe captures the gesture as well as the memory of the gesture\, now already in the past. Each panel appears to duplicate itself beyond any final tally\, proliferating in the room.\n\nUpon first glance\, Tolon’s constructs evoke a sense of freedom in their repetition. They appear infinite\, suggestive of vast open spaces\, like the modern landscapes viewed out of a train window\, or the documentary film reels from the mid- twentieth century. They draw us in\, inviting our dreams and interpretations. In this momentary introspection\, we contemplate our own histories.\n\nThen\, like the first day of any highly anticipated tomorrow\, after the proverbial summer full of expectation”¦expecting things to change\, to be different\, to be new again\, we are struck with a profound disillusionment\, stranded in a place full of promise that never delivers. In a turn\, the world of photographic familiarity Tolon has created collapses in on itself. – Amanda Krugliak\, arts curator\n\nThis Institute for the Humanities original installation was made possible by the generosity of the 2012 Kidder Residency in the Arts. The installation is based on Canan Tolon’s observations and experiences during her time in Ann Arbor\, and many of the materials used are salvage materials from her visits to Detroit architectural yards. \n\n

SUMMARY:Other:The Legislative Collaborative
DESCRIPTION:The University of Michigan Detroit will host Michigan U.S. Senator\, Carl Levin (D) on Tuesday\, October 9\, from 9-10 a.m. as part of its Legislative Collaborative series. This invitation only event is open to the press. The Legislative Collaborative is a quarterly political forum sponsored by the Michigan State University and University of Michigan Detroit Centers.\n\nThe session will provide a unique forum for select high school and college students to participate in a question and answer session with Michigan’s senior senator.  Levin’s visit to the U-M Detroit Center provides student attendees with an excellent opportunity to engage in conversations regarding such topics as politics\, policy and other current events. The invited students will represent the Detroit School of the Arts\, Michigan State University and the University of Michigan.\n\nSenator Carl Levin\, a Detroit native\, attended Detroit public schools as a youth and graduated from Swarthmore College in 1956 and Harvard Law School in 1959. Levin has been Michigan’s senior Senator since 1995 and is the longest serving U.S. Senator in Michigan history. Levin was elected to his sixth term in 2008\, which ends in January 2015.  TIME Magazine named Levin as one of America’s 10 best Senators in 2006.  Levin comes from a political family. His brother\, Sander\, represents Michigan’s 12th District in the House of Representatives and serves as ranking member of the Ways and Means Committee. Levin’s father\, Saul\, served on the Michigan Corrections Commission. His uncle\, Theodore Levin\, was the chief judge on the U.S. District Court for Eastern Michigan.\n\nOne of Carl Levin’s top priorities has been the economic well-being of Michigan families. Levin has been a consistent advocate of American manufacturing\; the backbone of Michigan’s economy. Levin has also been one of the strongest supporters for policies that would help American manufacturers compete globally.\n\nCarl Levin is the chairman of the Senate Permanent Subcommittee on Investigations. He has led investigations of the 2008 financial crisis\, abusive credit card practices\, the Enron collapse\, speculation in energy and food markets\, abusive offshore tax havens and money laundering by corrupt foreign leaders. He established an investigative team on the Armed Services Committee that has probed treatment of detainees in U.S. military custody and abuses by security contractors in Afghanistan.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:The Financial Crisis and the Path of Reform
DESCRIPTION:Speaker: Michael Barr\, Professor\, School of Law\, U-M \n\nThe Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act is being severely criticized by some in Congress for over-regulating banks\, while others say the law didn’t go far enough. Professor Barr brings with him a vast knowledge of financial regulation and policy making in Washington and can give us a first-hand view of reform.\n\nProfessor Barr teaches about financial institutions\, international finance\, financial derivatives\, transnational law\, and jurisdiction and choice of law. He was on leave in 2009-10\, serving as the U.S. Department of the Treasury’s Assistant Secretary for Financial Institutions\, and was a key architect of the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act. \n\nThis is the second of 9 lectures in OLLI’s monthly 2nd Tuesday Distinguished Lecture Series.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:African Art and the Shape of Time
DESCRIPTION:African Art and the Shape of Time explores how African art gives material form to diverse concepts of temporality\, history and memory. African art is often interpreted in Western analytical frameworks as expressions of timeless myths and rituals\, interrupted only by the colonial encounter. African Art and the Shape of Time complicates such conventional views by considering diverse modes for reckoning time and its philosophical\, social\, and religious significance. The exhibition includes 30 works from the University of Michigan Museum of Art\, National Museum of African Art\, Fowler Museum at UCLA\, as well as several Detroit area private collections\, and is organized around five themes that explore the multiplicity of time in Africa: The Beginning of Things\, Embodied Time\, Moving Through Time\, Global Time\, and \"NOW.\"\n\nThis exhibition is generously supported by the University of Michigan Health System. Additional support provided by the CEW Frances and Sydney Lewis Visiting Leaders Fund.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Benjamin West: General Wolfe and the Art of Empire 
DESCRIPTION:Benjamin West's iconic painting The Death of General Wolfe (1776) depicts the death of James Wolfe\, the British commander at the 1759 Battle of Quebec during what in this country is known as the French and Indian War. In conflating a momentous contemporary event with the genre of large-scale history painting\, West flouted the conventions of academic painting and the work became one of the most celebrated paintings in Britain. The artist went on to produce six versions of the painting\, one of which belongs to the William L. Clements Library at the University of Michigan. Through approximately 40 works from Michigan\, Canadian\, and British collections\, this ambitious and thematically focused exhibition will include the Clements canvas as well as other depictions of James Wolfe and his death on the battlefield.\n\nGenerous support for this exhibition is provided by the Joseph F. McCrindle Foundation\, the University of Michigan Health System\, the University of Michigan Office of the Provost and Office of the Vice President for Research\, the Richard and Rosann Noel Endowment Fund\, and THE MOSAIC FOUNDATION (of R. & P. Heydon).\n

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Discovering Eighteenth-Century British America through the William L. Clements Library Collection
DESCRIPTION:This significant exhibition provides glimpses of British America in the 1700s and is designed to complement the Museum's concurrent exhibition \"Benjamin West: General Wolfe and the Art of Empire\,\" which features the Clements collection's major painting \"The Death of General Wolfe.\" William L. Clements assembled an outstanding array of primary sources on North America dating between 1492 and 1800\, with a heavy emphasis on early European exploration and discovery and the eighteenth-century wars for control of the continent. The exhibition features a mix of rare items from Mr. Clements’s original donation and pieces the Library has acquired since 1923 to complement and enhance its strength in eighteenth-century American history.\n\nGenerous support for this exhibition is provided by the Andrew W. Mellon Foundation.\n

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Jesper Just: \"This Nameless Spectacle\"
DESCRIPTION:Visitors encountering Danish artist Just’s exhibit will find themselves captivated in stages\, as the experience of viewing it unfolds over time. In this breathtaking installation\, as in much of his work\, Just situates the viewer in his signature landscape of beauty\, provocation\, and a general uneasiness that is as seductive as it is ominous. The storyline is at once deceptively simple and perplexing: a wheelchair-bound protagonist travels through a neighborhood in the outskirts of Paris to her apartment\, while a young male character appears to follow her. Once home\, she is able to leave her wheelchair but is overcome by a powerful seizure. One of Just’s unique strengths is his ability to engage the viewer in an open-ended\, unresolved narrative in a manner that is more intriguing than frustrating. It is impossible to parse but equally impossible to abandon\, and this is the essence of Just’s gift for hypnotic storytelling.\nGenerous support for this exhibition is provided by the University of Michigan Office of the Provost. \n

SUMMARY:Exhibition:YOUNG-HAE CHANG HEAVY INDUSTRIES
DESCRIPTION:The Seoul-based art collaborative\, Young-Hae Chang Heavy Industries (YHCHI) is known for innovative video works that exist at the nexus of visual art and digital literature. Blurring the boundaries between media\, technologies\, and cultural histories\, YHCHI has gained international acclaim for their \"net art\" productions-mostly black- and-white videos of quickly flashing capitalized text in a generic font with synchronized music. This exhibition will present a newly commissioned piece by UMMA\, which will be added to the artists' website\, yhchang.com.\n\nThis exhibition is generously supported by the Herbert W. and Susan L. Johe Endowment\, the University of Michigan Office of the Provost\, and the Nam Center for Korean Studies. Additional support provided by the Dr. Robert and Janet Miller Fund.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:David Mitchell Lecture: \"The Capacities of Incapacity: Disability and Neoliberal Novels of Embodiment\"
DESCRIPTION:As a response to liberal disability representational strategies born in the wake of the civil rights era\, portrayals of people with disabilities under neoliberalism have increasingly tended to approach “deviant” bodies as sites of invention.  Rather than rehabilitate disability on the basis of social constructivist claims that disability is in the environment and not in the person (the founding insight of disability social models)\, neoliberal novels of embodiment explore disability as sites of radical human mutation wherein much of the creativity of the species lay.  Here I call these surprising representational reversals of disabled peoples’ innovation: the capacities of incapacity.  In anti-normative novels\, portrayals of alternative embodiments demonstrate ways in which a material engagement with disability may offer ways out of the social constructivist impasse: i.e. not only are bodies imprinted by environments\, but also that environments are imprinted by bodies as well. At the fore of this argument is the anti-normative novel’s challenge to disability rights movements as complicit in neoliberal homogenization processes at work in late Capitalism – namely\, those aspects of global fetishization that threaten to rid more radical formulations of disability of the promise they hold for fashioning alternative lives.\n\nDavid Mitchell is the 2012 Freehling Visiting Professor at the Institute for the Humanities\, University of Michigan\, and associate professor in the College of Education at Temple University.  His background and interests in American Cultural Studies include: U.S. literary history\, U.S. minority cultures\, representations of people with disabilities in film\, media\, literature and art\, documentary film art\, and youth subculture movements. His publications include 3 books The Body and Physical Difference (1997)\; Narrative Prosthesis (2000)\; Cultural Locations of Disability (2006)]\, dozens of journal and review articles\, four award-winning documentary films: Vital Signs: Crip Culture Talks Back (1995)\; A World Without Bodies (2002)\; Self Preservation (2005)\; Disability Takes on the Arts (2006)\, and the five-volume Encyclopedia of Disability (2005).  David has also curated two international disability film festivals and an exhibition for the National Vietnam Veterans Art Museum on disability history.  Currently\, he is completing work on two new book-length manuscripts\; the first\, Ablenationalism and the Geo-Politics of Disability\, analyses the developments of global disability culture under neoliberalism\, and the second\, The Capacities of Incapacity: Disability and the the Anti-Normative American Novel\, examines shifts in liberal and neoliberal portrayals of people with disabilities in the wake of U.S. Civil Rights Movements.\n\nPart of Integrating disability: multi-sensory translation\, bodies of dis/color\, and neurodiversity\, a year-long collaboration between the U-M Institute for Humanities\, National Center for Institutional Diversity\, and the University of Michigan Initiative on Disability Studies.\n

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:Doug Rossinow Lecture\, “Remembering the Early New Left: Visions Inspired\, Visions Fulfilled\, Visions Denied”
DESCRIPTION:This lecture is part of a thematic series of events leading up to the October 31-November 2\, 2012 conference\, \"A New Insurgency: The Port Huron Statement in Its Time and Ours.\" It is free and open to the public.\n\nAbstract: The vision of the new left in its early years\, as expressed in the Port Huron Statement of 1962 and elsewhere\, pushed in numerous directions and took inspiration from diverse sources. Those sources of inspiration included experimental religion\, existentialist thought\, and solidarity with Third World revolutions. The early new left advocated a realignment of American politics along left/right lines. New left activists rallied to insurgencies by outsiders\, but they also harbored ambitions to become part of a new\, reformed American political leadership. Some of their hopes achieved realization while others were dashed.
