SUMMARY:Exhibition:Bowling\, Burgers & Dogs: Digital Color Photography
DESCRIPTION:After receiving a BFA from Rutgers University\, Denise Rohde went on to study photography with renowned photographer Art Sinsabaugh at the University of Illinois. Working for years in a darkroom\, the switch to digital allowed her to draw from her painting and printmaking experience. Being able to combine mediums digitally has unleashed her imagination. Denise moved to Ann Arbor eight years ago from Champaign\, Illinois\, and she has found Michigan to be an \"eyeful.\" Some of her exhibits include the University of Illinois\, Roulette NYC\, Peachtree Plaza Atlanta and the Kodak Pavilion\, Epcot Center. \n\n1500 E.

SUMMARY:Conference / Symposium:A New Insurgency: The Port Huron Statement in its Time and Ours
DESCRIPTION:“A New Insurgency: The Port Huron Statement in its Time and Ours” brings together world-renowned activists and scholars to mark the 50th anniversary of The Port Huron Statement \, the historic manifesto of Students for a Democratic Society (SDS) first issued in June 1962. Tapping the viewpoints of those present at the creation of the Statement as well as those historians\, humanists\, and social scientists who have studied that period\, “A New Insurgency” draws attention to the complex scene of social-justice and leftwing activist movements that laid the seed-bed for The Port Huron Statement –and then helped spread and amplify its visions of social change.\n\nThe legacy of those movements\, and the ideals of The Port Huron Statement\, have returned to center-stage amid the stunning sweep of mass protest in pursuit of democracy and social justice over the past two years\, from the Arab Spring to Occupy Wall Street and continuing collective action against the hardships of austerity. This gathering at the University of Michigan will test the significance of the new insurgency of the early 1960s for the new insurgents of 2011-2012. We welcome a broad audience to the conversation.\n\nSDS’s Port Huron Statement offered the most comprehensive analysis of American society and most eloquent vision for radical reform to be generated by the emerging movement known as the New Left. Young radical intellectuals–including\, in crucial leadership roles\, undergraduate and graduate students from the University of Michigan–produced the document\, but their inspiration stemmed from the energy and moral example already set by activists in the civil rights and peace movements\, anticolonial struggles abroad\, new signs of dissent from Latin America to Eastern Europe\, and older leftwing ideas in need of renovation.\n\nDrafters of The Port Huron Statement were keenly aware of many of these forces\; in 1962\, they may not have recognized others that were stirring as well. Speakers at the conference will examine the open\, and sometimes hidden\, elements of the new insurgent spirit of that time–including trends in feminism\, Black nationalism\, Latina/o and Native American struggles for recognition and power\, rebellious currents around the world\, gay liberation\, and developments in the arts that tracked the course of rising protest.\n\n“A New Insurgency” will engage today’s generation of students and activists in all the conference proceedings. Following this year’s summer-reading programs focused on The Port Huron Statement (for incoming UM first-years in several special college programs)\, the conference will feature an all-student panel on the meaning of the Statement’s New Left principles today. A concluding panel on Friday\, November 2\, will feature representatives of current campus activist groups discussing the present and future course of movements for equality\, social justice\, and democracy. Lunch-time sessions on Thursday and Friday will provide “open mic” discussion by veterans of the “Port Huron” moment and newcomers to the history of that time.\n\n“A New Insurgency” runs from Wednesday\, October 31\, 7:30 pm\, through the evening of Friday\, November 2. Daily panels are held in the Pendleton and Anderson Rooms of the Michigan Union on S. State St. Wednesday's Keynote Address (Ruth Rosen) will be held in Angell Hall Auditorium B\, 7:30-9:00pm. Thursday's Keynote Address (Tom Hayden) will be held in East Hall 1324\, 7:30-9:00pm.

SUMMARY:Class / Instruction:Older Folk in Film–OLLI Study Group
DESCRIPTION:Although movies seem made for young people\, you can still find films with sensitivity and insight about the lives of older people in different (but in some ways similar) cultures. While these films deal with the realities of aging\, all are thoughtful\, engaging and ultimately ennobling. The films we will screen are “Make Way for Tomorrow” (USA\, 1937)\; “Tokyo Story” (Japan\, 1953)\; “Away from Her” (USA\, 2002)\; “Cloud Nine” (Germany\, 2009)\; “After Life” (Japanese\, 1999)\; and “Wild Strawberries” (Sweden\, 1957). Bring lunch to the discussion following the screening\, if you like. Ira Konigsberg is Professor Emeritus of Film\, U of M.\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:Lecture / Discussion:Sustainable Systems FORUM # 3
DESCRIPTION:Come join us for our Sustainable Systems Forum series.  The SS Forum is intended to explore topics of interest to those involved in the Sustainable Systems field of study\, but all are welcome to attend these events. Speakers will present on topics in sustainability with opportunities for the audience to engage in the discussion.\n\nSPEAKER: Mikhail (Mike) Chester\, Assistant Professor at Arizona State University in the School of Sustainable Engineering and the Built Environment and an Affiliate Faculty in the School of Sustainability\n\nABSTRACT:\nWith increasing populations\, remote resource and waste networks\, and complex hard and soft infrastructure systems\, sustainability policies often target cities as catalyzing agents for regional environmental change. The predominant approach for analyzing the sustainability of cities\, Urban Metabolism\, has provided value in understanding how resources are used\, transformed\, accumulated\, and discharged\, but does not provide a rigorous framework for understanding human health\, environmental impacts\, or social equity outcomes. This talk will present several new approaches for advancing urban sustainability assessment. These approaches use life-cycle assessment to assess infrastructure systems as enablers of emergent behaviors that are sustainable or unsustainable. Research projects from Los Angeles and Phoenix will be presented and the approaches will show the importance of understanding infrastructure interdependencies and high-resolution analyses that allows for meaningful socio-demographic assessment. The projects will highlight how bottom-up systems-oriented energy and environmental assessments can be positioned to assist urban sustainability policy and decision makers.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:Probing Mid-Ocean Ridge Processes Through Deep Crustal Drilling: Doug Wilson\, University of California Santa Barbara
DESCRIPTION:Many processes involving magma and hydrothermal fluids at mid-ocean ridges remain poorly understood\, despite their profound importance in creating seafloor and modifying ocean chemistry.  ODP Leg 206 and IODP Expeditions 309 and 312 drilled Hole 1256D through flows\, dikes\, and two gabbro layers\, for the first time finding\, in a single hole\, the physical stratigraphy expected from ophiolite analogies.  The gabbro layers were found at the depth expected if they formed from the bodies imaged as bright reflectors by seismic techniques at mid-ocean ridges\, widely interpreted as magma chambers or melt lenses.  The composition of the gabbro layers overlaps with composition of flows and dikes\, more evolved than reasonable models for the average composition of oceanic crust.  Though our understanding is far from complete\, bulk-rock compositions and degree of hydrothermal alteration exclude some models for mid-ocean ridge plumbing and favor others.

SUMMARY:Performance:The Ryan Montbleau Band
DESCRIPTION:Infectious jazz-funk-zydeco-folk\n\nVermont's Burlington Free Press says the Ryan Montbleau Band is \"difficult to describe\, tough to resist.\" They make catchy folk-pop with lyrics made for singing along. But what really sets them apart is instrumental artistry that adds deeper jazz and funk layers to the sound. \"With a finger-picking style that has been compared to Leo Kottke and Ani DiFranco\, soul-folk songwriting skills in the tradition of Martin Sexton\, and a singing voice constantly compared to Stevie Wonder\, there is clearly an abundance of talent here\,\" the Green Mountain College Journal says of former coffeehouse folkster Montbleau. And this may be a Northeastern band\, but there's a zydeco layer in their music too! Ryan's latest album\, \"For Higher\,\" was recorded with a great lineup of New Orleans musicians (call it getting in touch with your inner Acadian)\, and it contains a great cover of Eddie Hinton's \"Yeah Man.\" Listen and enjoy! The opener tonight is Ark favorite Erin McKeown\, whose songwriting has taken a strongly political turn lately.
