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:Lecture / Discussion:The Rise\, Decline and Fall (?) of Miranda
DESCRIPTION:Speaker: Yale Kamisar\, J.D.\, Professor of Law Emeritus\, U-M\n\nMiranda v. Arizona (1966) was the centerpiece of the Warren Court's so-called revolution in American criminal procedure.  But the Warren Court disbanded more than 50 years ago.  Since then\, led over the decades by Warren Burger\, William Rehnquist\, Antonin Scalia\, Clarence Thomas and Samuel Alito\, Miranda has been seriously weakened in various ways.  There has been a good deal of talk lately to the effect that Miranda is dead or dying -- or might as well be dead.  Even some liberals have concluded that the time has come to give Miranda a respectful burial \"and move on.\"  But can Congress or the state legislatures be expected to protect the rights of those suspected of\, or arrested for\, serious crimes?\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:CJS Noon Lecture Series
DESCRIPTION:(FREE AND OPEN TO THE PUBLIC) America’s national pastime has been a fan favorite in Japan at the professional level for more than 75 years. During that time\, Japanese baseball has developed such a unique character that at times it hardly resembles the American version from which it came. Brad Lefton has been covering baseball in both countries as a journalist since graduating from the University of Michigan in ’92 with an MA in Japanese Studies. From no reporters in the locker room to year round practice and more\, join him as he leads a discussion on many of the surprising differences and how they help to explain Japanese culture.\n\nAbout the Speaker: Brad Lefton has been communicating to Japanese and American audiences for two decades as a bilingual journalist specializing in baseball. He has worked on countless documentaries and other programs for networks such Japan Broadcasting Corporation (NHK) and ESPN and has contributed to publications such as New York Times\, Seattle Times\, and Asahi Shimbun. After earning an MA in Japanese Studies from U-M\, Lefton worked for NHK in Tokyo. 1995 was a defining year for both Japan-U.S. relations in baseball and his career\; Hideo Nomo pitched for the Dodgers and Bobby Valentine managed the Chiba Lotte Marines. Lefton followed both events. He co-authored a book with Valentine\, Senbon Nokku wo Koete\, before returning to St. Louis from where he continues covering baseball in both countries.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:Janine Antoni: At Home in the Body
DESCRIPTION:Janine Antoni works in a variety of mediums including sculpture\, photography\, installation\, and video to capture the human condition with a physicality that speaks directly to the viewer’s body. Transforming everyday activities such as eating\, bathing\, and sleeping into art\, Antoni’s primary tool has always been her own body. She has chiseled cubes of lard and chocolate with her teeth\, washed away the faces of soap busts made in her own likeness\, and used the brainwave signals recorded while she dreamed at night as a pattern for weaving a blanket the following morning. She has had major exhibitions at the Whitney Museum of American Art\; Solomon R. Guggenheim Museum\, and S.I.T.E. Santa Fe. She has been awarded a John D. and Catherine T. MacArthur Fellowship and the Larry Aldrich Foundation Award.\n\nWith support from Urban Institute for Contemporary Arts Grand Rapids\, Cranbrook Academy of Art.\n

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:Marxism Reading Group
DESCRIPTION:\"This event is the fourth in a series of open\, critical discussions of\nthe Marxist approach to philosophy\, history and society. In this\nsession\, we will discuss the basic concepts behind Karl Marx's\nanalysis of capitalism. The discussion will closely follow a part of\nChapter 4 of Robert Heilbroner's 1980 book \"Marxism: For and Against\".\nHowever\, reading the chapter is not essential for coming to the\ndiscussion\, as the ideas will be presented and explained during the\nfirst part of the discussion. This session will cover the notion of\n\"profit\" in capitalism as analyzed by Marx\, and discuss Marx's\ncontroversial claim about the tendency\, in capitalism\, of the rate of\nprofit to decline over time.\"
