SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:Penny Stamps Distinguished Speaker Series
DESCRIPTION:Established with the generous support of alumna Penny W. Stamps\, the Speaker Series brings respected emerging and established artists/designers from a broad spectrum of media to the School to conduct a public lecture and engage with students\, faculty\, and the larger University and Ann Arbor communities.\n\nRising young South African artist Mary Sibande constructs elaborate visual narratives to consider race\, gender\, and class in post-colonial South Africa.

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.

DESCRIPTION:In the face of rapid environmental change and given the inherently long time scales of tree population dynamics\, it seems inescapable that forests are increasingly in disequilibrium\, lagging in their responses to anthropogenic changes in the physical and biotic environment.  Anthropogenic impacts on forests of the eastern U.S. include (1) climate change\, (2) changes in logging regimes\, (3) the litany of introduced pests and pathogens that are profoundly changing eastern U.S. forests\, and (4) changes in the atmospheric environment\, particularly rates of nitrogen (N) deposition and CO2 concentrations. My research uses a spatially-explicit\, individual-based model of tree population dynamics (SORTIE-ND\, www.sortie-nd.org) that is linked to continental-scale forest inventory data maintained by the U.S. Forest Service (http://www.fia.fs.fed.us/).  Preliminary results indicate that the direct effects of climate change on the distribution and abundance of tree species in the eastern US will be relatively small over the next 50-100 years\, in part because climate impacts on sapling and adult tree growth and survival are relatively small.  Climate impacts on seedling recruitment and survival appear to be much stronger\, but the current occupants of a site have both a numerical and competitive advantage over new colonists.  This provides a great deal of inertia to forest structure and composition\, and analyses with the model suggest that this inertia would remain even in the absence of dispersal limitation.  Tree species in the region show a wide range of responses to current rates of N deposition\, and in many of the species the magnitude of expected response to anticipated future reductions in N deposition is of the same magnitude as the expected response to anticipated future temperature increases.  Both historical and current harvest regimes are driving successional dynamics that can be expected to result in large changes in both forest structure and composition at a regional scale.  Those successional dynamics are promoting the abundance of two late successional species – eastern hemlock and beech – that are currently threatened by introduced pests or pathogens.  Processes that supplement the natural mortality rates of adult trees\, whether through harvesting or the actions of introduced pests or pathogens\, may accelerate the effects of climate change by opening the canopy and allowing new tree recruitment.   Models provide the only real tool to integrate these disparate effects\, and analyses with SORTIE-ND have all the hallmarks of complex system behavior\, including initial condition dependence but predictable general features of system recovery following perturbation.

SUMMARY:Other:Self Esteem and Relationships\; A Relationship Enhancement Series 
DESCRIPTION:Thursdays- Relationship Enhancement Series.  Dealing with difficult people in your life can be extremely stressful. Unfortunately\, few people ever learn the high-level skills needed to manage difficult relationships. This series will help you do just that.\n\nSelf-Esteem and Relationships. Few things in your life can have a greater positive impact than learning to feel good about you. How we feel about ourselves can impact our relationships with friends\, family\, and significant others.  In this workshop you will explore some of the earlier-life experiences that may have formed your current \"core beliefs\" about yourself.  We will talk about how these beliefs influence your life\, relationships\, and behaviors currently.  Lastly\, you will learn strategies for weakening some of the negative self-beliefs that hold you back in your life.\n\n\n\nEach Thursday from 4:15-5:30 p.m. you and other interested students will meet with a counselor and focus on one of the most frequent concerns of U-M students. These are the very issues that U-M students have told us are the most common issues they deal with every day. The counselor will share some helpful information\, talk about strategies and clinical resources\, and she or he will also make time for you to share a little bit about your concerns (if you wish to do so).  \n

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Sibande On Campus: New Work\, Opening Reception
DESCRIPTION:Rising young South African artist Mary Sibande constructs elaborate visual narratives to consider race\, gender\, and class in post-colonial South Africa. Rooted in her own family’s history of three generations of women as domestic servants\, Sibande’s larger-than-life figures clothed in yards of fabric confront the viewer with the stark limits of cultural heritage as well as the possibility of transformation. Sibande’s Ann Arbor fellowship includes an original installation at the U-M Institute for the Humanities gallery\, a Penny Stamps lecture\, an open studio at the Stamps School on North Campus\, and exhibition of Sibande’s existing work at Gallery DAAS\, the U-M Museum of Art\, and the Stamps School Slusser Gallery. http://www.lsa.umich.edu/humanities/gallery/sibandeoncampus

SUMMARY:Performance:Vienna Teng
DESCRIPTION:A few years ago Vienna Teng came to southeastern Michigan for the first time–and we fell in love. This artist has a real bond with Michigan audiences\, and now it turns out the love affair between Vienna Teng and Michigan is mutual: she recently earned her master's in sustainable enterprise at the U-M and announced plans to settle in Detroit. Her music has continued to develop during this time\, and her live shows are spellbinding. Three years after stepping away from a full-time music career to attend graduate school\, Vienna returns to the studio and to the road with a new sound\, a new producer\, and a new approach to songwriting and recording. What’s emerging from that process is her most uptempo\, pop-influenced album yet–and full of surprises\, even to its creators. “Nothing about this is familiar!\" Vienna explains. Some of the new songs started life as \"fragments of melody set to a beat I recorded on my phone.\" It was\, she says\, \"sort of terrifying to have so little figured out\" as she started recording\, \"but it also opens up a lot of possibilities.” Tonight's opener is Alex Wong\, a Brooklyn-based producer\, writer\, and performer whose signature sonic style resonates in all he creates–from cinematic pop soundscapes to electronic-tinged theater scores to his honest\, direct songwriting. Alex has been a key Vienna Teng collaborator along the way!
