SUMMARY:Exhibition:Gifts of Art presents Folding in Color: Origami Landscapes

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Gifts of Art presents Hidden Glimpses of Nature: Photography
DESCRIPTION:The photography of Charles St. Charles reveals hidden glimpses of nature that few people have witnessed or are even aware exist. His work covers a vast spectrum\, from the scale of very small while recording light passing through the natural lens of miniscule dew drops\, to the scale of the very large while recording fields of daisies and fields of stars in the same image. The briefest moments of kissing and cavorting fox kits are frozen in time\, while extraordinary long exposures taken during the night expose brilliant fall foliage surrounded by moving mist. Charles' unmanipulated images all point to the same conclusion – it is a phenomenal world that we live in.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Race: Are we so different?
DESCRIPTION:People are different.  Throughout history\, these differences have been a source of community strength and personal identity.  They have also been the basis for discrimination and oppression.\n\nThe idea of “race” has been used historically to describe these differences and to justify mistreatment of people and even genocide.  Today\, contemporary scientific understanding of human variation is beginning to challenge “racial” differences\, and even challenge the very concept of race.\n\nRace:  Are we so different?\, developed by the American Anthropological Association in collaboration with the Science Museum of Minnesota\, is the first national exhibition to tell the stories of race from the biological\, cultural\, and historical points of view.  Combining these perspectives offers an unprecedented look at race and racism in the United States.  For more information about the exhibit\, visit www.UnderstandingRace.org. The traveling Race exhibit has inspired the University of Michigan’s Understanding Race Project\, an audience engagement initiative including the campus-wide\, winter term Understanding Race Theme Semester\, centered in the College of Literature\, Science\, and the Arts\; participation by all ten public school districts in Washtenaw County\; and extensive involvement by community members\, nonprofits\, government agencies\, and other groups.

DESCRIPTION:Race is arguably the most serious problem in American history and culture. Our history books have done a poor job of relating this problem. This course examines black and white relations from early slavery\, which led to the Civil War\, the Jim Crow era and the Civil Rights struggle of the mid-20th century. Lerone Bennett's \"Before The Mayflower\" is a highly recommended reading. Kenneth W. Phifer is a retired Unitarian Universalist \nMinister.\n

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Black Detroit 21
DESCRIPTION:In partnership with the Penny W. Stamps School of Art and Design\, the University of Michigan Detroit Center presents the Work: Detroit gallery exhibition\, Black Detroit 21. Curated by Odie Rynell Cash\, Black Detroit 21 addresses social concerns within Detroit's African American community by exploring the topics of identity\, territory\, protest\, sexuality and transition. This exhibition kicks off with an opening reception on Friday\, January 11\, 2013 from 6 – 9p.m. The opening night performance and discussion features:\n\n7:00 p.m. - 4TheatrSake\; 25 minute performance of selections from Cell/$hips.\n7:30 p.m. - Artists and Curator Discussion: Black Detroit 21\; Moderator: Odie Rynell Cash\, Curator \nOver the course of the last five months the artists and curator from the exhibition have held discussions both in person and via the Internet around the topics presented in \"Black Detroit 21\". This final discussion will focus on the exhibition theme in relation to art and the Detroit community. A brief question and answer period with the audience will follow the discussion.\n8:30 p.m. - Satori Circus - Performance\n\"Oh Happy Day Trilogy\" (part one)\nAccording to the artists\, the goal of this performance is to “make us think...review ourselves...soul searching/identity - its loss and in search of it...and what is gained in doing so...entertainment/education/observation/simulation/and the hybrid that comes out of those. Thereby\, the audience walks away questioning...the artist\, themselves\, the world we've woven around us.”\nWith a Black population of more than 80-percent\, Detroit's African American community plays a significant role in this city's cultural identity and economic future. As Detroit moves through the 21st century\, what role will the African Americans play in Detroit's development in the community? How will this population define itself in the new century while dealing with various issues that impacts growth\, development and cultural enrichment in the city? The exhibition Black Detroit 21 addresses social concerns within Detroit's African American community by exploring the topics of identity\, territory\, protest\, sexuality and transition. The 11 artists in this show are from a multitude of social\, personal and generational backgrounds\, finding a common theme in their work\, which documents and/or is influenced by Detroit's African American community. The installation of the artists work in Black Detroit 21 presents a visual context to create a dialogue around these topics.\n\nBlack Detroit 21 is curated by Odie Rynell Cash\, an internationally active independent curator\, arts program organizer and artist living between Detroit\, Michigan and Antwerp\, Belgium. Cash is recognized for his wide range of artistic practices and concerns\; with the significance of avant-garde ideas and experimental mediums/media that address contemporary social and urban society.\n\nHe studied a Liberal Education curriculum at Columbia College Chicago. He has an extensive and varied background\, having curated and exhibited artworks in more than nine countries\, including projects in Antwerp\, Manila\, Rotterdam\, Paris and Toronto. Cash was the recipient of a 2007 Flemish Minister of Culture Travel Grant for research on performance theory. He has been invited by the Center for Contemporary Art in Lagos\, Nigeria to curate a group exhibition that is anticipated to open in the Fall of 2014.\n\nThe exhibition concludes on March 22\; with event performances on February 7\, February 20\, March 8\, March 12 and March 22.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Florencia Pita/FP mod
DESCRIPTION:Organized by the University of Michigan Museum of Art\, Florencia Pita/FP mod explores the provocations and intersections of digital technology\, material experimentation\, femininity\, and ornament in the work of Argentina-born\, Los Angeles-based architect and designer Florencia Pita. The exhibition and its related publication\, part of the UMMA Books series\, trace the evolution of Pita's design ideology through installation pieces\, urban design\, tableware\, furniture\, and architecture\, as well as small adornments. Pita's boldly colored works draw from literary\, art\, and biological sources\; employ cutting-edge architectural fabrication techniques\; and cross borders of visual art\, architecture\, and design.\n\nLead support for this exhibition is provided by the Herbert W. and Susan L. Johe Endowment\, Laura Lynch and Hugh McPherson\, and the Graham Foundation for Advanced Studies in the Fine Arts. Additional generous support is provided by Taubman College of Architecture and Urban Planning.\n

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Francis Alys: Guards
DESCRIPTION:Belgian artist Francis Alys's video Guards (2005) documents sixty-four of the Queen of England's guards on a \"walk\" throughout the City of London. There is perhaps no more symbolically unemotional character than that of a bearskin-hat-wearing guard of the Queen of England. 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. These strategies\, evoking the poetic and sonic palette of the urban environment\, involve a sometimes loose and other times overt relationship to social resistance and to the symbolic and often political implications of these actions.\n\nGenerous support for this exhibition is provided by the University of Michigan Office of the Provost.\n

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:Title IX Was Necessary\, Imperfect + Polarizing: Now What?
DESCRIPTION:Enacted at a particular moment in history\, Title IX reflected and codified certain gender and cultural biases even as it created new opportunities. The law provided both access and limitations at a time when access was most prized.  This presentation\, by Laura Pappano\, will explain how we can now recognize and overcome the ingrained practices that have become barriers to the advancement of women’s sports.\n\nLaura Pappano is an award-winning journalist\, author\, and blogger who writes about education\, and gender-related sport issues. Author of Inside School Turnarounds (2010)\, The Connection Gap (2001)\, and co-author of Playing With the Boys: Why Separate is Not Equal in Sport (2008)\, Laura regularly writes for The New York Times and the Harvard Education Letter. Her work has appeared in The Christian Science Monitor\, The Huffington Post\, The Boston Globe Magazine\, and other publications.  She is writer-in-residence at the Wellesley Centers for Women at Wellesley College\, leads the Women’s Sport Leadership Project\, and is founder and editor of the FairGameNews.com blog.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:CREES Noon Lecture
DESCRIPTION:Patrick Patterson (PhD History 2001)\, associate professor of history\, University of California\, San Diego.\n\nIn Bought and Sold\, Patrick Hyder Patterson reveals the unexpected ways in which socialist Yugoslavia embraced a culture of shopping\, spending\, acquiring\, and enjoying–a consumerist lifestyle that made this communist country quite unlike its more restrained Soviet-bloc counterparts. Remarkable abundance translated into remarkable civic contentment\, and there was hope that this unique reformist brand of socialism could\, with time\, offer a material Good Life to rival the capitalist West. But many Yugoslavs\, both inside and outside the circles of official power\, worried about the contradiction between the dictates of Marxist ideology and the population&#039\;s enthusiasm for consumption. The result was a heated public debate over creeping consumerist values\, with the new way of life finding fierce critics and\, surprisingly for a communist country\, many passionate\, vocal\, and very public defenders. Ultimately\, the broadly shared consumer culture that prevailed during the 1960s and 1970s was a central factor in creating a genuinely pan-Yugoslav sense of belonging\, a critical form of social glue that held the multiethnic society together. But with the economic downturn of the 1980s\, the unsustainable reliance on ever-expanding abundance led to bitter disillusionment\, stripping the unique Yugoslav model of its legitimacy\, removing an essential source of cohesion\, and priming the populace for mutual resentment\, ethnic conflict\, and war.\n\nPatrick Hyder Patterson is associate professor of history at the University of California\, San Diego. His research centers on the history of 20th-century Eastern Europe and the Balkans\, with major emphases on everyday life and consumer culture and on the interplay of Islam\, Christianity\, and secular society. Recent projects have coupled a concern for Yugoslavia and the Balkans with a comparative consideration of Eastern Europe&#039\;s northern tier\, drawing on sources from Hungary\, Czechoslovakia\, and the German Democratic Republic. He holds a Ph.D. in history from the University of Michigan\, and recently published Bought and Sold: Living and Losing the Good Life in Socialist Yugoslavia (Cornell University Press\, 2011).

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:Digital Compositing: From the Alpha Channel to the 2.0 Look\, Dirt Style
DESCRIPTION:Using digital media to simulate “rough edges\, stains\, organic textures\, and grunge-retro fonts\,” can help one avoid the cliché “2.0 look\,” argues British designer Elliot Jay Stocks\, which he finds aseptic and (too) clean-cut\, as voiced in his 2007 tirade\, “Destroy The Web 2.0 Look.” Stocks is not alone. Also in support of anti-aseptic (and even a bit dirty) web design is Russian-born net artist Olia Lialina who\, in her 2011 talk at the New Museum of Contemporary Art\, advocated a future web aesthetic chalked full of unicorns\, skulls\, simple animated GIFs\, personal journal entries\, and naïve\, amateur-looking home pages. Going back to “amateur graphics\,” Lialina argues\, resists 2.0’s corporate and professional look\, which acts as a disinfectant to personal expression.\n\nBut what happens when these alternative methods are placed in the broader context of the history of aesthetic computing and the development of digital graphics? Do these anti-stylistic calls to arms suffice as a critical model? In this talk\, I answer these questions through an archaeology of digital compositing\, beginning with its prehistory in chromakey\, the development of the frame buffer in the 1970s\, and the alpha channel in 1984. With this history in mind\, I then move into an analysis of contemporary web aesthetics\, as illustrated in the “2.0 look” and its counterpart in dirt style.\n\nCarolyn L. Kane is the author of Chromatic Algorithms: Synthetic Color\, Computer Art\, and Aesthetics after Code (University of Chicago Press\, forthcoming\, February\, 2014). Specializing in the history and philosophy of new media and digital aesthetics\, she received her PhD from New York University (2011) and is an assistant professor in the Department of Film and Media at Hunter College in the City University of New York.\n

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:The New Sterilization
DESCRIPTION:This lecture opens the new exhibition\, Interrupted Life: Incarcerated Mothers in the United States. A public reception follows the event.\n\nMothers of young children are the fastest-growing population of incarcerated persons in the United States today.  Policing practices that target poor women of childbearing age–many of them women of color\, most convicted of nonviolent crimes–have halted these women's heterosexual sex lives and reproductive opportunities  as effectively as coercive sterilization programs interrupted the fertility of numerous welfare recipients in the 1970s.  These practices arguably function as a contemporary extension of population policies embedded in US laws governing slavery and immigration since the 18th century.   \n\nThe lecture is presented by Rickie Solinger\, a  historian writing books about reproductive politics\, welfare politics\, who gets to be a \"legitimate mother\" in the United States\, and the relationships of race and class to this issue.  For more than two decades\, Solinger has been curating traveling exhibitions about these matters\, aiming to \"interrupt the curriculum.\"
