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.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Gifts of Art presents Reconstructed Landscapes: Collage
DESCRIPTION:Ann Arbor artist Cheryl Dawdy received her BA from U-M and then dabbled in different media (printmaking\, weaving\, natural dyes) until discovering collage. She adores it for its spontaneity and perfect expression of her \"make it up as you go along\" approach to life.  Expectation invites disappointment\, she contends\, but an open mind offers unlimited potential. With that attitude\, she works with old postcards\, paper scraps\, and pieces of old wallpaper washed with acrylic paint\, creating landscape images some have described as \"wonderful little worlds you want to climb into\" and \"the stuff of dreams.\" Dawdy is also a singer for the Ann Arbor based musical performance group the Chenille Sisters.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Gifts of Art presents Songs of the Birds: Airbrushed Acrylics
DESCRIPTION:Mixing science and art\, local artist Carol Hanna interprets the songs of birds using visual language that represents the color of the birds and the notes of their songs. The various stripe combinations of vibrating color in each painting represent each individual bird's measure of time or rhythm\, the pitch or frequency of its vibrations per second\, and the softness or loudness of its call. Hanna works with the U-M Biology Department to match each bird's exact color. Hanna has exhibited both locally and nationally\, and her works are in permanent collections at the Cornell Lab of Ornithology and the C. S. Mott Children's and Women's Hospital. She received both a BFA and an MA from Eastern Michigan University.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:China through the Prism of the Democratic ӬArt of Printmaking
DESCRIPTION:Speaker's abstract: During the course of a single year\, I traveled to the People’s Republic of China on three separate occasions\, my first interactions with this extraordinary society and culture. In China\, the future may seem to be already in the present\, and yet the impetus that led to my visits is somewhat of an anomaly by our present-day standards: study of the traditional art of relief block printing\, an art still practiced by many contemporary artists today. Block printing is one of many inventions China gave the world\, a creative process that sprang off many other discoveries and arguably impacted the course of human history. In the context of my research about current art in China\, I will examine the work of several contemporary Chinese printmakers who either\, by working traditionally\, and/or using discipline’s traditions as a point of departure\, both contribute to the vitality of art making on a global scale.\n\nAbout the speaker: Using representations of familiar imagery\, the work of Endi Poskovic proposes a range of eventualities. Hybridized narratives translate to unexpected scenarios\, evoking place and time and exploring ideas of displacement\, memory\, and reconciliation. A recipient of Guggenheim\, Rockefeller\, Pollock-Krasner\, Camargo\, McDowell\, Flemish Ministry Fellowships\, and many others\, Poskovic was educated in Yugoslavia\, Norway and the US. He has exhibited extensively\, representing the US in all major international print biennials and triennials. His work can be found at Harvard University Fogg Museum\, Philadelphia Museum of Art and China Academy of Art. Poskovic is a Professor of Art and Design at the University of Michigan Stamps School of Art and Design. \n

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:CREES Noon Lecture
DESCRIPTION:Kirill Kalinin\, doctoral candidate\, political science\, U-M.\n\nHow accurately do election polls report individual voting preferences? Can election polls help us detect and possibly deter election fraud in authoritarian regimes? This talk will focus on theoretical aspects and effects of social desirability bias on election fraud in authoritarian regimes. Using data from survey experiments conducted before and after Russia’s 2012 presidential election and the results of alternative techniques used by a national pollster\, Kalinin will demonstrate the presence of significant social desirability effects in Russian public opinion polls that inflated both electoral ratings of Vladimir Putin and voter turnout. In turn\, these findings raise issues about the quality of survey research in authoritarian regimes and the possible interconnection of social desirability effects and election fraud.\n\nKirill Kalinin is a doctoral candidate in the Department of Political Science at the University of Michigan and a student in the Program in Survey Methodology at the Institute for Social Research. Before enrolling at U-M in 2008\, he was a Fulbright and Carnegie Visiting Scholar at ISR’s Center for Political Studies. In 2008-09\, he was an Emerging Democracy Fellow at the Weiser Center for Emerging Democracies. While conducting fieldwork in Russia in 2012\, he was a visiting instructor at the New Economic School in Moscow and European University at St. Petersburg. His major research interests are election forensic analysis and political methodology.

DESCRIPTION:Class meets Wednesdays\, September 25 - October 30. \nThoreau\, Emerson and Whitman transformed American thought.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:The Choice of Heterosexuality: The Porn Industry in France (1975-2010)
DESCRIPTION:In the middle of the 1970s\, the porn industry emerged in France\, tolerated by a liberal government and regulated by new legal provisions. Since then\, French pornographers have presented themselves as fantasy entrepreneurs: in their view\, their professional role is to capture and respond to consumers’ various desires. This largely male-dominated trade has a gendered and sexual organization: women are excluded from the market\, and there is a clear split in the industry between gay and straight porn. Although pornographers present this divide as being obvious\, Dr. Trachman argues that it must be seen as a choice. As “lesbian” scenes in straight porn show\, this exclusion concerns only male homosexuality. While pornographers highlight the distance between their own sexuality and the fantasies they put on screen\, gay scenes remain an exception.

SUMMARY:Performance:Vasen
DESCRIPTION:Initially some traditionalists in the Swedish folk music community showed some resistance to Väsen. While nyckelharpist Olov Johannson and violist Mikael Marin were playing fairly straightforward folk duets\, Roger's Tallroth's 12-string guitar definitely provided a different twist on Swedish traditional music. Yet it's exactly the guitar chordings and rhythms that also attracted an entirely new audience\, and the band's popularity gradually grew\, along with their international reputation. They’ve appeared on \"A Prairie Home Companion\,\" won the Swedish equivalent of a Grammy\, worked with Mike Marshall and Darol Anger\, as well as with the Kronos Quartet\, and recorded 15 albums. And you might want to come just for the unique experience of hearing the nyckelharpa\, a unique Swedish fusion of fiddle and hurdy-gurdy. Väsen is a Swedish word with many meanings: spirit\, noise\, a living being\, essence are among the most prominent. It was originally meant to just be an album title\, but soon people were calling to book the band \"Väsen\,\" and the name stuck.
