Led by Assistant Professor Laurie Hartman\, this collaboration with Gifts of Art shines a spotlight on APRNs\, explaining how in their work they conduct evaluations\, order and interpret diagnostic tests\, deliver various treatments and prescribe medications.

Huang travels extensively between the US and China and currently teaches at Nanjing University in Jiangsu Province. Recently\, he completed several monumental\, museum commissioned sculptures in China. This exhibition is a reminiscence of Huang’s work done while in Ann Arbor.

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.

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.

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.

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 UID:10076-1175146@events.umich.edu URL:https://events.umich.edu/event/10076 CLASS:PUBLIC STATUS:CONFIRMED CATEGORIES:visual arts LOCATION:Museum of Art CONTACT: END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20120620T153239 DTSTART;TZID=America/Detroit:20121127T110000 DTEND;TZID=America/Detroit:20121127T170000 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.

Rawski\, Professor of Economics and History\, University of Pittsburgh. Historians ranging from U-M's Albert Feuerwerker to Kenneth Pomeranz have labored to explain China's limited economic success.

In every case\, a socially stratified populace lived under a ruling party\, each with their own reactive strategies. This talk will explore the different literary modes with which both elites and non-elites in Mesopotamia and the Roman Empire expressed their approval towards or displeasure with the king (as in the case of the former) or the emperor (the case with the latter). Through a comparative and diachronic study\, I show that elite and non-elite interests in both cultures intertwine more than is usually recognized\, even in extreme cases with elite encouragement of non-elite concerns. Ultimately it was this mutual dialogue that dictated extant narratives about royal power in the Ancient World. More significantly\, textual references to authoritative regimes in both cultures reveal a consistent and continuous discourse towards power relationships that spanned many centuries.\n UID:10435-1174120@events.umich.edu URL:https://events.umich.edu/event/10435 CLASS:PUBLIC STATUS:CONFIRMED CATEGORIES:multicultural,roman empire,history LOCATION:202 S.

Says the Baltimore Sun: \"He's a folky troubadour with a rock-and-roll heart and the all-too-rare skill of combining humor and intelligence.\" Dan tends to alternate between documenting the zeitgeist and writing about the personal concerns with which we all grapple\, and he's overflowing with songs: his full-length albums often alternate with EPs that offer fascinating windows on his soul (his concerts are a good place to pick those up). Dan Bern's songs are direct\, often very amusing\, and always on target musically. He's got a strong surrealistic streak\, a major strand of Dylan's influence\, and a great storyteller's eye. Dan comes to town with a pair of great new releases\, \"Drifter\" and \"Doubleheader.
