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: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:“The U.S. & The Ocean: Policy\, Politics\,  and the Public”
DESCRIPTION:The U.S. was founded as a maritime nation and was a world leader for most of the 19th and 20th centuries. We have lost much of that leadership. We have the largest Exclusive Economic Zone of all nations\, and in 2010 got our first ever National Ocean Policy\, but we are still stuck in the muck. We have failed to ratify the UN Convention on the Law of the Sea\; application of Coastal and Marine Spatial Planning is sputtering\; ecosystem-based management remains elusive\; and the ocean is rarely mentioned as a source of jobs and new economic activity in the current debate. U of M Professor Emeritus\, John Kingdon wrote a defining treatment of the governmental policy-making process.  We will explore its relevance to ocean policy through two case studies–managing freshwater inflow to the San Francisco Bay estuary\, and managing aquatic invasive species introductions by ships transiting the St. Lawrence Seaway. Ocean scientists seek ocean policies based on sound science\, but are limited by lack of experience in the policy arena and by the lack of appropriate institutional structures to engage them and their expertise. I will offer some observations on disruptive strategies.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:ASP Lecture. \"The Language of One\, the Script of the Other.\"
DESCRIPTION:Part of LSA Theme Semester\, \"Translation.\" \n\nIn this talk Murat Cankara will focus on three early Turkish novels in the Armenian script. These novels\, written between 1851 and 1868 by Ottoman Armenians\, have so far been ignored in Ottoman/Turkish literary historiography. In order to make a critique of historiography and to place these Armeno-Turkish novels into a historical and literary context\, he will discuss: the issue of cultural encounter between Ottoman Armenians and Muslim/Turks with special emphasis on script and historiography of the late Ottoman Empire\; an introduction to some basic features of Armeno-Turkish novels\;  and a literary comparison between these three novels and early Turkish novels written by Muslim/Turks with special emphasis on the appropriation of romanticism. Cankara will also give a brief overview on some major problems and theoretical tools for students of Armeno-Turkish. \n\nManoogian Foundation Post-doctoral Fellow Murat Cankara was born in Smyrna in 1976. He studied physics and mathematics for two years. After majoring in theory and history of theatre\, Cankara received his PhD in Turkish literature from Bilkent University in 2011\, with a \ndissertation titled “Empire and Novel: Placing Armeno-Turkish Novels in Ottoman/Turkish Literary Historiography”. Cankara’s research \nfocuses on the novels written by Armenians in the Turkish language \nusing the Armenian script\, specifically those from the second half of the nineteenth century. His areas of interest are the literary culture of the Ottoman Empire in the nineteenth century in which Armenians play a prominent role\, cultural interactions between Ottoman Armenians and Muslim/Turks\, the appropriation of Turkish by Armenians\, and \nthe historiography of Ottoman/Turkish literature.\n\nCo-sponsor: CMENAS.\n\n

SUMMARY:Performance:Neil Halstead
DESCRIPTION: Solo music by the frontman of Slowdive and Mojave 3\n\nOne night while in the studio with Neil Halstead a friend questioned him as to what kind of music he played. Neil’s extremely thick beard turned into a smile as he said “Nylon Rock” before laughing and turning back to his beer. In the late 1990s Neil fronted a band called Slowdive\, and after a couple of really good records they split. From there Neil formed his current band Mojave 3\, who have released four records to date. At the core of those bands was Neil and his songwriting\, and nowadays his main medium is a nylon-string guitar and a couple of shakers. Neil writes songs that are very personal to him\, and he invites everyone to take their own meanings away from his lyrics (“Go skies and thrones and wings. And poetry and things” from the song “Elevenses”). Neil Halstead is an old soul and his newest solo record is exactly who he is: welcoming\, warm\, clever and kind. Philadelphia songwriter Jim Hanft opens.
