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

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:CREES Noon Lecture
DESCRIPTION:Christian Matijas Mecca\, associate professor of dance\, U-M.\n\nSecond only to The Nutcracker\, Igor Stravinsky's Le Sacre du Printemps is perhaps the most widely known and immediately recognizable ballet score among both dance and music audiences. How then\, can a work with over two-hundred different choreographies and one-hundred commercial recordings be a lost ballet? The reality is that all ballets are\, in some form\, lost ballets\, a byproduct of the ephemeral nature of the medium\, where the dance exists in the moment it is performed and ceases to exist upon its conclusion\, or upon the passing of its creator. When we hear a musical excerpt from The Nutcracker\, Le Sacre\, Swan Lake\, or any score composed for dance and identify it as a ballet\, we are referring to only one-half of an intended whole. Dances are often lost in the collective memories of both dancers and audiences\, whereas the contents of the musical score can be experienced repeatedly and in many cases\, on-demand. As we imagine the physical ballet through the aural experience of a musical score\, we should consider the ballet as lost since it can only be recalled in our imagination. Using Le Sacre du Printemps as an example\, Matijas Mecca will discuss the challenges in preserving choreographies and performance practices in dance and will address the challenges one can face in knowing a dance.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Yahoo! Seminar: Learning to prevent spam
DESCRIPTION:Spam is not only a universal irritant\, but also a major drain on the resources of companies whose businesses are web-based. In today's age of account phishing\, Nigerian princes\, and botnets\, tackling spam needs much more than a simple rule or keyword based classification system. In fact\, thinking about spam classification often raises questions about some of the fundamental assumptions in machine learning and poses significant algorithmic scaling challenges. In this talk\, we will discuss some of the novel algorithmic and machine learning questions motivated by spam.\n\nAbout the speaker:\nAnirban Dasgupta is currently a Senior Scientist at Yahoo! Labs\, where he works on algorithmic problems for massive data sets. He did his undergraduate studies at IIT Kharagpur and doctoral thesis at Cornell University on learning mixtures of distributions using spectral techniques. At Yahoo!\, Anirban has since worked on abuse prevention\, large scale machine learning\, scheduling\, analysis of large social networks and randomized algorithms in general.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Celebrating Artist Sam Karres and his Sketchbooks
DESCRIPTION:Join us for a public exhibit and reception to honor urban expressionist painter Sam Karres who recently donated sketchbooks\, dating from 1975-1996\, to the University of Michigan Library. The collection will support the study of both Greek America and Detroit.\n\nThis exhibit will showcase drawings\, most in pen and ink\, that give visual insights into Detroit and the many characters Karres has encountered along the path of his life. Brief remarks will be followed by light refreshments.\n\nArtist Sam Karres has spent his life deriving inspiration from the city of Detroit. With a sketchbook always in hand\, he captured Greektown before the casino\, at a time when it was truly a Greek neighborhood. Karres worked as an illustrator for Ford Motor Company for 25 years\, but he didn’t let his job interfere with his personal artistic life. He considered it a great way to live: work eight hours\, paint eight hours\, and sleep eight hours.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:The Place of Literature in Literature of Place: Travel Writing in Imperial China
DESCRIPTION:Speaker’s abstract: A large body of literary texts survives from the imperial period in China that is often identified as “travel literature” (in modern Chinese: youji wenxue æ¸¸è¨˜æ–‡å­¸). Its prevalence and importance notwithstanding\, this form of writing has not received serious critical attention from scholars. The main purpose of this lecture is to suggest answers to the following questions: (1) What is Chinese “travel literature” and how should it be defined?\; (2) Who wrote travel literature in imperial China and why?\; (3) Is there a “canon” of Chinese travel literature? If so\, then what specific texts constitute that canon and why?\; (4) What literary qualities inform the very “best” Chinese travel writing?\; and (5): what is the role of youji in the overall development of writing about place in imperial China?\n\nFree and open to the public. Light refreshments will be served.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:Two-Day Workshop on Disability and Multi-Sensory Translation: Susan Schweik Lecture: \"Twice-Described Description: Notes Toward an Ekphrastic Culture\"
DESCRIPTION:This workshop will explore relations between literary ekphrasis (traditionally understood as the textual description of a visual work of art) and the kinds of description that disability is thought to occasion. To think of ekphrasis as visual description is to trouble the difference between art and assistance. To think of visual description as ekphrasis is to encourage a visual description that is aware of its ethical responsibilities and its imaginative and persuasive force. The workshop\nwill be both critical and creative: we will look at some classic and contemporary examples of poetic ekphrasis through a disability studies lens\, and we will try our own hands at a critical ekphrastic practice.\n\nSusan Schweik is a professor of English and disability studies and associate dean of arts and humanities at U.C. Berkeley. Her book The Ugly Laws: Disability in Public came out from NYU press in 2009. She is currently at work on projects on eugenics and on disability\, representation\, and Agent Orange.\n

SUMMARY:Performance:Nneka
DESCRIPTION: New Afro-soul from Germany\n\nThe daughter of a Nigerian father and a German mother\, Nneka Egbuna was born in Warri\, in the Delta region of Nigeria at the height of its newfound wealth in the mid-1970s. She soaked up the sounds and rhythms of one of the most musical nations on the planet\, a country where expressing yourself through song is just a part of everyday life\, a country that has music in its very DNA\, where the influence of giants like Afrobeat revolutionary Fela Kuti is never far away. Every year since her musical career took off in 2005\, Nneka has built on her successes\, stretched her muscles\, and widened her range. Her debut album\, \"Victim of Truth\,\" an inspirational mix of hot loops\, black consciousness and 21st-century soul music\, was garlanded with praise by the British media. The Sunday Times called it \"as good as 'The Miseducation of Lauryn Hill.'\" Nneka’s music has a big splash of Bob Marley\, a measure of Nina Simone and a lick of Erykah Badu. But now there’s more of the best ingredient: Nneka herself. Her first U.S. release\, \"Concrete Jungle\,\" is a collection of songs that put the singer-songwriter at the forefront. Catch the most exciting Afro-European talent since Sade in an intimate venue–while you still can!
