SUMMARY:Exhibition:Birthing Reproductive Justice: 150 Years of Images and Ideas
DESCRIPTION:Reproductive Justice -- the right to have children\, not have children\, and parent our children in healthy and safe environments -- is a movement and perspective that arose in the 1990s. Articulated and led by women of color with a more encompassing social vision\, reproductive justice usually incorporates both a framework of human rights and an awareness of the intersectionality of women’s identities and struggles against sexism\, racism\, homophobia\, and economic marginalization.\n\nThis exhibit provides a historical context for the emergence and antecedents of reproductive justice. Given that women's lives have never been reducible to one dimension of their reproductive health\, this exhibit traces a longer history of reproductive justice\, illustrating many facets of experiences\, debates\, and policies related to pregnancy\, birth\, birth control\, and raising children.\n\nThe exhibit is held in conjunction with the conference\, Reproductive Justice: Advocates\, Academics\, Activists in Ann Arbor\, a Michigan Meeting.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Gifts of Art presents Behind the Veil: Monoprint & Mixed Media 
DESCRIPTION:Casey Blanchard is a monoprint and mixed media artist living in Vermont. During her travels\, Blanchard considers no found object too grand or insignificant for expression in the printing medium. She finds the process of monoprinting to be engaging\, fluid\, unpredictable and fun. It is the mysteries behind the frayed veil\, the torn edge and the unspoken word that intrigue her. Blanchard hopes to wake up the viewer's perception\, encouraging in them reflection\, exploration and a connection to meaning. She uses organic materials in her artwork to help draw people to their natural\, healthy and whole state. Blanchard has been involved in arts in healthcare both nationally and internationally.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Gifts of Art presents Birdpants: Mixed Media
DESCRIPTION:Missy Orge creates work that is evocative of scientific curiosities and mounted butterflies\, with a humor that sneaks up and inspires a much closer look. Her current work focuses on birdpants  Ì¶  tiny\, ornithologically correct pants that “could be for backyard visitors who are either fashion-forward or simply chilly in the Michigan winter.\" She employs traditional craftwork such as quilting\, embroidery and beading to produce highly detailed  Ì¶  and decidedly non-traditional  Ì¶  confections that encourage the viewer to consider the possibilities of enticing a chickadee to don a pair of slacks. Making Ann Arbor her home for more than 20 years\, she spends her spare time filling bird feeders in the hope that\, one day\, she can talk a songbird into modeling her creations.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Gifts of Art presents Newspaper Diary: Color Photography 
DESCRIPTION:For Joanne Leonard\, preserving newspaper clippings is something of an urgent task since future generations may know only digital versions of these fragile pages of newspaper. Through the juxtaposition of news images and images in books\, Leonard creates a conversation in her photographs between present and past. The pictures she makes\, sometimes witty\, often poignant\, are a form of diary\; they reflect her daily observations as she reads the newspaper over morning coffee. Leonard's work has been widely exhibited and published\, including exhibition in the San Francisco Museum of Art's Women of Photography\, and publication in Janson's History of Art\, Gardner's Art Through the Ages\, and the Time-Life Library of Photography.  She is a distinguished Professor Emeritus at U-M.

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:Conference / Symposium:Conference
DESCRIPTION:Convened by Anna Grzymala-Busse\, Weiser Center for Emerging Democracies director and Professor of Political Science.\n\nThe goal of the conference is to re-examine and to rethink the mutual constitution of religion and politics\, and to stimulate a lively discussion of several issues:\n\n* how religion differs from ethnic\, linguistic\, or national identities\n\n* how doctrine matters: in the growth of some religions\, in its impact on public policy and political institutions\, and in its trans-national impact\n\n* how states regulate religion\, and the difference between favoring some religions and privileging others\n\n* how organized religion affects electoral cleavages\, state institutions\, and redistributive policies (and vice versa)\, and\n\n* the rise of \"fundamentalisms\" -- when\, where\, and why do they arise? \n\nThe conference will consist both of panels\, where faculty members present short\, provocative papers\, and a poster session\, where graduate students will present their research in progress.

SUMMARY:Conference / Symposium:Globalizing the Word
DESCRIPTION:This symposium will examine the influence of globalization and transnationalism on the \"making\" of Native American literature. Including fifteen distinguished scholars and writers\, this meeting will engage the reigning critical paradigm in Native American literary studies–tribal nationalism–and consider the promises (or potential pitfalls) of taking more decidedly transnational approaches to the production and criticism of Native American literature in a global age.\n\nDistinguishing between “Native American” and “Indigenous\,” we will focus on the transnational dimensions and implications of published or performed writing and oratory by Natives working in the North American context. Among other questions\, we will ask: what transnational technologies\, laws\, and cultural forces have influenced the making of Native American literature\, and how? Conversely\, how has Native American literature influenced the making of other literatures\, aesthetics\, rhetorical traditions and political movements around the world? And what is at stake in these very questions?\n\nWe will pursue these issues and the ethical and political questions they broach in four plenary panels–and two keynote lectures–across two days. These topics will include theories of transnationalism in literary\, cultural\, and Native American studies\, as well as histories and representations of Indian travels across the “Red Atlantic” and elsewhere. We will explore histories of the book and other communication technologies in Native America\, and move toward an integrative yet critical approach to global indigenous identities\, cultures\, and politics.\n\nKeynote lectures by Philip Deloria (Friday 1 PM) and Gerald Vizenor (Saturday 2 PM)\n\nSee conference website for full program.\n\nSpeakers: Chadwick Allen\, Eric Cheyfitz\, Matt Cohen\, Philip Deloria\, Lincoln Faller\, Kate Flint\, Shari Huhndorf\, Maureen Konkle\, Arnold Krupat\, Scott Richard Lyons\, Elvira Pulitano\, Phillip H. Round\, Sean Kicummah Teuton\, Gerald Vizenor\, Jace Weaver\n\nCo-sponsored by the Office of Senior Vice Provost for Academic Affairs\, the National Center for Institutional Diversity\, and the Department of Anthropology

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:El Otro Lado/The Other Side: Struggles for Racial Justice and its Opposition\, presented In collaboration with the LSA Winter 2013 Theme Semester\, \"Understanding Race\,\" presents posters\, photographs\, archives\, books\, pamphlets\, periodicals\, buttons\, and other items that illustrate a long history of race-related social protest movements\, and that are intended to stimulate conversation and raise awareness about struggles against racism\, past and present.\n\nItems on exhibit are from the Joseph A. Labadie Collection\, which documents radical and social protest movements from the 19th century to the present. The collection\, which is part of the University of Michigan Special Collections Library\, is the oldest and largest of its kind\, having originated in 1911 when Detroit anarchist and labor activist Joseph Antoine Labadie donated his personal papers to the University of Michigan Library. Today the collection continues to grow\, with the addition of both retrospective and contemporary materials.\n\nThe exhibit\, curated by Julie Herrada with assistance from Daniel Dobras and Cathy Baker\, is available during Audubon Room hours: Mon-Fri 8:30am-7pm\, Sat 10am-6pm\, Sun 1-7pm.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Retaining Identity Art Exhibition
DESCRIPTION:Matthaei Botanical Gardens is the venue for this special show of art created by older adults with memory loss and art students working in a variety of materials and media. The exhibit is based on the class created by U-M Penny W. Stamps School of Art & Design Associate Professor Anne Mondro. Partnering with the U-M Silver Club mild memory loss program club members\, including the newer Elderberry (barely elder) group\, students guided the members in art making. The theme of the semester was “Lessons Learned.” Students and club members shared experiences and expertise to create one-of-a-kind works of art. The final result is an art exhibition for the Club Members\, care partners and students. This traveling exhibition captures the spirit of creativity and embraces a shared experience. \n\nSponsored by U-M Geriatrics Center\,  Silver Club  Mild Memory Loss Programs\; U-M Penny W. Stamps School of Art & Design\; U-M  Alzheimer's Disease Center\; and U-M Matthaei Botanical Gardens & Nichols Arboretum.

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: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.

SUMMARY:Performance:The Chenille Sisters
DESCRIPTION:The Chenille Sisters are a little bit Andrews Sisters\, a little bit Supremes\, and a little bit Roches\, with honeyed harmonies from bygone days and a big dose of modern attitude and zany humor. Every show they do around town these days is a bit of a party\, and if you've never experienced one\, a splendid time is guaranteed for all. Grace Morand\, Cheryl Dawdy\, and Connie Huber have performed on \"A Prairie Home Companion\" and had their own Emmy-winning PBS special\, \"Makin' Rhythm.\" Each Chenilles show is a bit different\, and lately they've added some serious vocal-jazz chops to their repertoire. You may have noticed that female vocal trios are quite the rage these days\, but Michigan's own Chenille sisters were doing it right\, way before it was cool. The Chenilles recently released their 12th album\, \"May I Suggest.\"
