SUMMARY:Exhibition:The Orange Revolution in Ukraine: Presidential Campaign Memorabilia
DESCRIPTION:The Orange Revolution exhibit includes campaign memorabilia from the 2004 presidential elections in Ukraine such as brochures\, posters\, the ubiquitous orange scarf\, t-shirts\, bumper stickers\, postcards\, pins\, etc. The exhibit offers a small sampling of campaign rhetoric for and against each of the presidential candidates -- Yushchenko and Yanukovich. Yuschchenko was the pro-democracy and pro-Western candidate\, while Yanukovich was backed by the pro-communist\, authoritarian Ukrainian regime. The first round of voting took place in November 2004\, however\, the results were nullified by the Supreme Court when it determined that there was widespread election fraud. Viktor Yushchenko won the presidency during the second round of voting in December 2004. Visitors will also read about the experiences of two election observers from Michigan who were in Ukraine during those heady days of change.

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:Conference / Symposium:Gender in Israeli Society and Culture 
DESCRIPTION:Gender has emerged as a key point of contention in Israeli society and culture\, creating new divisions within Israel and accentuating old ones. Among the issues that have risen to consciousness are those of space\, religion\, politics and ethnicity. \nArguments over access to public space has stimulated awareness of gendered power relations\, whether this occurs over the Kotel\, or segregated seating in buses\, or concepts of modesty for women on the streets. Religious activists have pursued a political agenda to extend Jewish religious norms into the public sphere. Meanwhile\, Israel becomes increasingly diverse society along ethnic and national lines\, with minorities and foreign workers seeking resources and recognition.  \n\nThis symposium explores analysis of these issues as expressed in works of art\, literature and film as well as within the political realm. It pays attention to the politicization of culture in Israeli society and some of the key fault lines around gender. \n

SUMMARY:Other:“The Looting of Lebanon: The Civil Wars Reconsidered.” 
DESCRIPTION:Najib Hourani\, Assistant Professor\, Department of Anthropology\, Assistant Professor\, Global Urban Studies Program\, Michigan State University.\nAbstract: This paper offers a revisionist account of the end of the Lebanese civil wars of 1975-90. To do so it draws upon and challenges the “New Wars” paradigm\, which developed to explain post cold war conflicts in Eastern Europe and Africa. This approach makes three primary claims. First\, these conflicts exhibit unprecedented ethno-religious violence and the deliberate targeting of civilians.  Second\, that capital accumulation rivals victory on the battlefield as the goal of protracted violence.  Finally\, it claims that war economies emerge on the ashes of the normal economy\, and\, marked by criminality\, predation and warlordism\, they so inhabit politico-economic spaces outside of “normal” trajectories of development and globalization. \nIn this paper I engage the second and third claim through a multi-sited political economy of the civil wars anchored by three years of fieldwork in Beirut. In tracing connections between the Lebanese “militia economy” and its imagined exterior\, I demonstrate the degree to which the civil wars were not about sectarian rivalries\, but about capturing the commanding heights of a globalizing Lebanese political economy: the banking sector.  Moreover\, I argue\, it was the integration of the war economy within larger regional and global financial processes and networks – not its exclusion from them – that helps us to understand why the Lebanese wars ended when they did\, and how post-war Lebanon was integrated within both regional and global processes of neo-liberalization. \n

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:Banking on DNA Futures
DESCRIPTION:Presented by Professor Rayna Rapp (Anthropology\, New York University) and with Audrey Norby (U-M Fetal Diagnostic Center)\, Alexandra Minna Stern (U-M Obstetrics & Gynecology)\, and Elizabeth F.S. Roberts (U-M Anthropology)\, this discussion begins with an overview of the \"endless frontier\" in reproductive technology. Technologies of fertility regulation and control now proliferate in the developing world\, beyond where they first made their debut: Europe\, North America\, Australia. Now\, selective and expanding parts of the world -- not just the rich populations stratified in the global North -- occupy a long-term \"existential gap\" with regard to biomedical aspirations and fears\, increasingly focused on infertile women\, men\, and fetuses. Prof. Rapp illustrates new iterations of the gap continually revised and expanded using the case of noninvasive prenatal tests (NIPTs)\, now making their way through the marketplace into the lives of America's pregnant women.\n\nWhat does it mean to launch yet another technology that assumes total reproductive control over fetal disabilities can be achieved? This presentation highlights the hidden burdens and ethics of the rapid diffusion etched into the NIPTs.\n\nThis is part of the Feminist Science Studies program\, directed by Sari van Anders. Cosponsors: Program in Sexual Rights and Reproductive Justice\, and Science\, Technology\, & Society.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:Gender\, Democracy\, and the Public Sphere in Israel 
DESCRIPTION:Wieseneck Family Israel Symposium \n\nThe status of women has become one of the most significant indicators of the robustness of democratic societies.  Israel faces a paradox in this regard: on the one hand\, women are far more visible today in the public arena than at any time since the creation of the state\; on the other hand\, the place of women in the public sphere is constantly being contested.  What can account for the simultaneous integration of women into public life and their increasing exclusion?  This analysis will explore the dual patterns of gender progress and inequality in Israel in recent years\, suggest some explanations and examine the implications of these patterns for Israel’s democratic order.

SUMMARY:Performance:Drew Holcomb & The Neighbors
DESCRIPTION:Some artists are able to articulate a vision at the very beginning of their career\, while others hone their craft over time\, growing into their vision as they mature. “I am definitely in the latter category\,” explains Drew Holcomb\, a Tennessee-born\, duck-hunting\, French-speaking\, bourbon-drinking\, book-collecting\, golf-playing Eagle Scout with a master's degree in Divinity from Scotland’s University of St Andrews (he wrote his dissertation on “Springsteen and American Redemptive Imagination”) who has spent the better part of the past decade as a professional musician. Since releasing their first album\, 2005’s \"Washed In Blue\,\" Drew and his band The Neighbors (Ellie Holcomb\, Nathan Dugger\, Rich Brinsfield) have toured with The Avett Brothers\, Ryan Adams\, Los Lobos\, and The North Mississippi Allstars\, among others. Drew's latest\, \"Good Light\,\" arrives shortly after his 30th birthday and the birth of his first child\, daughter Emmylou (named for\, you guessed it ...)\, with wife and bandmate Ellie Holcomb. “This album perfectly tells the story for a new stage in my life\,” explains Drew. “I have been through really difficult things. When I was 17\, I lost my younger brother\, and have lived through the grief of that great absence. On the other hand\, I have experienced the joy of being married to the girl I always wanted\, and have been loved really well by her. ”¦ Each of us has a story\, and it’s the only one we can tell. With this album I’m telling my story\, in the hope that it helps other people tell theirs.”
