SUMMARY:Exhibition:Northern Michigan Landscapes Exhibit
DESCRIPTION:Visit the Pierpont Commons Wall Gallery located just outside of the Commons Cafe to see this beautiful exhibit!\n\nArtist: Rachael Van Dyke\n\nArtist Statement - Northern Michigan Landscapes\n\nGrowing up in a large Italian family where emotions and energy were high\, everything had to be done fast. I showered fast\, ate fast\, talked fast\, walked fast and made things fast. Early on I learned to create quickly\, having to finish my projects in a matter of hours. I learned to work collaboratively and to not become too attached to my work. This childhood dynamic created a need in me to be aggressive in my work\, often cutting through the paint surfaces and restating my lines. Whether I am exploring portraits or landscapes I want my materials to be bold and work fast with me. Exposing that energetic style through a variety of mark making and under-drawing is important to me as it reflects my own zeal for life.\n\nI find myself most comfortable when away from the tradition of easel and canvas. I am often on my hands and knees actively engaged with the drawing\, my feet thick in charcoal and oil bar. Outdoors\, I tape charcoal onto the tip of a 3-foot stick to use as my drawing tool. Using these techniques allow for a more natural\, spontaneous\, and spirited drawing. I am eager to search for shapes of color and light that fall on the planes of the face and the ridge and valleys of land. These organic movements are revealed in my landscape paintings\, through juxtaposing patterns and colors of the farmlands and vineyards of Upstate New York and Northern Michigan.\n\nThe exhibit will be displayed through Thursday\, May 16th.\n\nAll pieces in the exhibit are for sale. Please contact the Center for Campus Involvement if you are interested in purchasing art from this exhibit.\n\nPlease note: The Center for Campus Involvement (CCI) provides opportunities for student and professional artists to display work suitable for a general audience. CCI hosting an artist’s work does not mean we endorse the artist’s point of view\; we recognize the free speech rights of our exhibitors.

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.

SUMMARY:Class / Instruction:The Golden Age of Comedy–OLLI Study Group (50+)
DESCRIPTION:The comedy of silent films is still hailed by film critics and aficionados as the funniest works in the history of motion pictures. Lacking sound\, film comedians and clowns created a world of physical humor that sometimes achieved the sublime. This course examines the individual artists of the ”˜golden age of comedy’ and considers the more general question\, why is the funny so funny? We will look at some of the early progenitors of silent comedy such as Mack Sennett and the Keystone Cops and pay special attention to Charlie Chaplin and Buster Keaton. Instructor: Ira Konigsberg\n

SUMMARY:Conference / Symposium:2013 Color of Change Community Summit
DESCRIPTION:The 2013 Color of Change Community Summit is a 2.5 day-long conference set to take place Friday\, April 12th through Sunday\, April 14th at the University of Michigan School of Social Work. The mission of the Summit is to build community and cultivate power around the lived experiences of queer and trans* people of color (QTPoC) in the state of Michigan. By drawing on the collective wisdom and expertise of our local communities\, we hope to equip Summit participants with the skills they need to be part of the ongoing struggle for liberation.\n\nWe are organizing this conference because we believe it is necessary. Despite recent wins in the national marriage equality movement\, QTPoC continue to fight for their daily survival. This is especially true in the state of Michigan\, where QTPoC suffer from a hostile political environment that perpetuates unequal access to quality education\, routine violence\, and sustained attacks on our health and general well being. Color of Change serves as a student-led response to these injustices.\n\nNote: For the purposes of this conference\, we will be using “queer and trans*” as umbrella terms to refer to anyone who does not solely self-identify as heterosexual and/or cisgender. This includes\, but is not limited to\, folks who identify as gay\, pansexual\, asexual\, questioning\, genderqueer\, same-gender-loving\, stud\, femme\, etc.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Pesha's Journey: From Rabbi's Daughter to Radical Feminist
DESCRIPTION:“Pesha's Journey” tells the story\, in pictures and words\, of Pesha–a Jewish woman born into an orthodox Palestine family who struggled to live a life unfettered by the oppressive bonds of her cultural moment. The photos\, taken between 1911 and 1940\, trace her early life to her education in Germany and\, eventually\, her marriage and move to New York with husband Benno\, the photographer who took many of these pictures. These images and Pesha’s story were discovered after Benno’s death by his son\, Eric Bermann\, who co-curated this exhibit.
