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  ̶  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  ̶  and decidedly non-traditional  ̶  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 Mediterraneo: Watercolor 
DESCRIPTION:Widely traveled artist Kay Cassill looks for the unusual and the most ordinary views to save in her sketchbook and camera. In her studio\, the sketches and photos give rise to watercolor paintings. Whitewashed walls clinging to a cliff and expressive views of a town as seen by a view of a single walkway are details in her paintings that help viewers feel that they were there. Cassill's postgraduate studies include the University of Iowa\, the Art Student's League in New York City and the Academe de la Grande in Chaumiere\, Paris. Her work is in the permanent collection of the Metropolitan Museum of Art\, New York among others. She maintains a studio on Cape Cod as well as in Michigan.

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:Gifts of Art presents Paperweights & Studio Glass
DESCRIPTION:The American studio glass movement started in 1962 with glass workshops held at the Toledo Museum of Art. The workshops\, taught by Harvey Littleton along with scientist Dominick Labino\, introduced a small furnace built for working glass that made it possible for artists to work in independent studios. The studio glass movement quickly spread north to Michigan\, and in 1982\, a decision was made that studio glass would be the focus of the University of Michigan-Dearborn permanent art collection\, which is housed at the Alfred Berkowitz Gallery. This exhibition is a portion of that collection\, spotlighting studio glass art by major artists working in the medium\, including Dominick Labino\, Marvin Lipofsky and Richard Ritter.

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
