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: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:ASP Lecture. \"Re-reading the Crusades: Armenian Sources.\"
DESCRIPTION:The general trend in the scholarship surrounding the crusades in the last half-century has been one which considered this period solely from the perspective of Western Europe\, neglecting to acknowledge material in Armenian\, Arabic\, Greek\, Hebrew and other traditions as valuable resources to the study of the period. As a result\, a majority of the scholarship surrounding the crusades has set the narratives of Western Europe in opposition to those of the “east\,” contributing to the understanding of this period as solely antagonistic.  In an attempt to break away from and argue against compartmentalized readings of crusading texts\, my talk will begin with an assessment and evaluation of crusading scholarship\, as well as a commentary on the classification of literary and historiographic narratives as “crusading” texts. By providing a brief survey and analysis of Armenian sources\, the second section will then move to a discussion of the contribution of the Armenians to the to the study of the crusading period.  Drawing attention to one of these primary sources\, the talk will conclude with a discussion of the “Lamentation over the capture of Jerusalem” by the Catholicos Grigor Tlay\, and will contextualize this lament within the greater narrative of the genre of lament\, the Crusades\, and Mediterranean Studies.\n\nTamar Boyadjian\, Principal Museum Scientist\, UCLA. \nCo-sponsors: Center for Middle Eastern and North African Studies\, Medieval and Early Modern Studies\, Mediterranean Topographies Workshop.

SUMMARY:Performance:Shawn Colvin
DESCRIPTION:New music from Shawn!\n\nJust about every young singer-songwriter has imitated Shawn Colvin musically at one time or another. This South Dakota-born folk-rocker puts herself under the microscope and then backs off and boils it all down to a set of memorable pop hooks. Shawn's recent \"Live\" album won a Grammy nomination for Best Contemporary Folk Recording along with a rave from Thom Jurek of the All Music Guide\, who called it \"a delightful\, intimate overview of her career.\" But Shawn's live shows always include some surprises and flashes of new insight as well. Shawn comes to town with \"All Fall Down\,\" her first new album of original material in six years. It was produced by Buddy Miller\, and AllMusic.com says it \"ranks with Colvin's most satisfying work since the '90s.\"
