The public is invited.\r\n\r\n\"In my world, art and science belong together as naturally as air and water. Both inform my work influencing my approach,\" said Adlerstein, an accomplished artist with many gallery showings to her credit. \"Observation, experimentation, improvisation, making comparisons, searching for patterns and answers all come together within the creative process. As such I have developed my own mixed media techniques and my research influences the subject of my paintings. The process has been magical, nurturing and informative.\"\r\n\r\nAt the School of Natural Resources and Environment, Adlerstein is an applied aquatic ecologist in the school's Conservation Ecology field of study. She obtained a master of science degree at the University of Concepcion Chile and a master of science and Ph.D. at the University of Washington. Her work focuses on environmental stressors affecting Great Lakes ecosystems.\r\n\r\nShe did not pursue academic training in the arts but she has been painting for as long as she has been a scientist.\r\n\r\nAt the University of Michigan, she has taught courses bridging arts and sciences at the School of Art & Design and the Residential College, and has organized and participated in events to immerse the arts within the endeavors of a research university. Her works have been published in books and magazines; shown in galleries and museums in Chile, Europe, Canada and the United States; and are part of public and private art collections.\r\n\r\nShe is a visiting artist at the Washington Street Gallery in Ann Arbor.\r\n\r\nIn 2001, Adlerstein moved to Ann Arbor with her husband, Edgar Meyhofer, a professor of Mechanical Engineering and Professor of Biomedical Engineering in the U-M College of Engineering. They have two sons.\r\n\r\nArtist statement by Sara Adlerstein:\r\n\r\nI am a scientist and a visual artist, or the other way around....\r\n\r\nIn my world, art and science belong together as naturally\u201d\u00a8as air and water. Both inform my work influencing my approach. Observation, experimentation, improvisation, making comparisons, searching for patterns and answers all come together within the creative process. As such, I have developed my own mixed media techniques and my research influences the subject of my paintings. The process has been magical, nurturing and informative.\r\n\r\nI also view art as a vehicle that transcends academia in communicating environmental issues to wider audiences extending the reach of traditional research publications. My paintings are often environmentally based and images build on my experience as a scientist and my sensibility as an artist to communicate concerns, dreams and emotions all emerging from a deep and relentless love for life.\r\n\r\nIn the current exhibit, you will find images inspired by the beauty of the Great Lakes aquatic ecosystems and my research on environmental stresses threatening their health and function. These are visions of worlds that exist in a place in\u201d\u00a8my heart. These alternative realities develop in front of my eyes as I research interconnectivities of streams and lakes; imperilments of species that have become endangered; population fluctuations; and ecosystem dynamics ever so affected by human interventions.\r\n\r\nI hope for conversation departures to raise awareness of how we can be better stewards for our environment.", "occurrence_notes":"", "guid":"11726-1178830@events.umich.edu", "permalink":"http:\/\/events.umich.edu\/event\/11726", "building_id":"1000189", "building_name":"Dana Natural Resources Building", "campus_maps_id":"45", "room":"Ford Commons, main floor", "location_name":"Dana Natural Resources Building", "has_livestream":0, "cost":"", "tags":["environmment","art"], "website":"http:\/\/www.snre.umich.edu\/gallery", "sponsors":[ { "group_name":"School for Environment and Sustainability SEAS", "group_id":"1199", "website":"" } ], "image_url":"https:\/\/events.umich.edu\/media\/attachments\/2012\/12\/event_11726_original.jpg", "styled_images":{ "event_thumb":"https:\/\/events.umich.edu\/media\/cache\/event_thumb\/media\/attachments\/2012\/12\/event_11726_original.jpg", "event_large":"https:\/\/events.umich.edu\/media\/cache\/event_large\/media\/attachments\/2012\/12\/event_11726_original.jpg", "event_large_2x":"https:\/\/events.umich.edu\/media\/cache\/resolve\/event_large_2x\/media\/attachments\/2012\/12\/event_11726_original.jpg", "event_large_lightbox":"https:\/\/events.umich.edu\/media\/cache\/event_large_lightbox\/media\/attachments\/2012\/12\/event_11726_original.jpg", "group_thumb":"https:\/\/events.umich.edu\/media\/cache\/resolve\/group_thumb\/media\/attachments\/2012\/12\/event_11726_original.jpg", "group_thumb_square":"https:\/\/events.umich.edu\/media\/cache\/resolve\/group_thumb_square\/media\/attachments\/2012\/12\/event_11726_original.jpg", "group_large":"https:\/\/events.umich.edu\/media\/cache\/resolve\/group_large\/media\/attachments\/2012\/12\/event_11726_original.jpg", "group_large_lightbox":"https:\/\/events.umich.edu\/media\/cache\/resolve\/group_large_lightbox\/media\/attachments\/2012\/12\/event_11726_original.jpg", "event_large_crop":"https:\/\/events.umich.edu\/media\/cache\/resolve\/event_large_crop\/media\/attachments\/2012\/12\/event_11726_original.jpg", "event_list":"https:\/\/events.umich.edu\/media\/cache\/resolve\/event_list\/media\/attachments\/2012\/12\/event_11726_original.jpg", "event_list_2x":"https:\/\/events.umich.edu\/media\/cache\/event_list_2x\/media\/attachments\/2012\/12\/event_11726_original.jpg", "event_grid":"https:\/\/events.umich.edu\/media\/cache\/event_grid\/media\/attachments\/2012\/12\/event_11726_original.jpg", "event_grid_2x":"https:\/\/events.umich.edu\/media\/cache\/resolve\/event_grid_2x\/media\/attachments\/2012\/12\/event_11726_original.jpg", "event_feature_large":"https:\/\/events.umich.edu\/media\/cache\/resolve\/event_feature_large\/media\/attachments\/2012\/12\/event_11726_original.jpg", "event_feature_thumb":"https:\/\/events.umich.edu\/media\/cache\/resolve\/event_feature_thumb\/media\/attachments\/2012\/12\/event_11726_original.jpg" }, "occurrence_count":27, "first_occurrence":1178829 } , "11604-1177408": { "datetime_modified":"20121129T144458", "datetime_start":"20121217T080000", "datetime_end":"20121217T200000", "has_end_time":1, "date_start":"2012-12-17", "date_end":"2012-12-17", "time_start":"08:00:00", "time_end":"20:00:00", "time_zone":"America\/Detroit", "event_title":"Gifts of Art presents Brain Fitness PuzzleArt: Interactive Installation", "occurrence_title":"", "combined_title":"Gifts of Art presents Brain Fitness PuzzleArt: Interactive Installation: Alli Berman", "event_subtitle":"Alli Berman", "event_type":"Exhibition", "event_type_id":"7", "description":"New York artist Alli Berman had a CVA (stroke) years ago.

Yet even with no break in the guards' indifferent exterior, the tale still manages to be a powerful metaphor for the human condition. Many of the elements of Guards are found throughout Alys's work: walking, rhythm, the use of the street and bridges are all common tropes in his oeuvre.
