SUMMARY:Exhibition:Operation AB - Katyn
DESCRIPTION:Operation AB - Katyn: The Destruction of the Polish Elite at the Beginning of World War II\, is divided into several thematic blocks. The first depicts the Soviet-German political and military alliance in the years 1939-1941. The next sections present the two notorious criminal operations of 1940\, first the Katyn Massacre\, and then the AB Operation. The exhibit also presents profiles of several victims\, including families that fell victim to both aggressors. Finally\, the exhibit looks at the big picture of these operations\, depicting their geographical range and documenting the lack of punishment for the vast majority of the Third Reich and the USSR officers responsible for these crimes.\n\nSponsored by The Institute of National Remembrance\, Poland\nThe University of Michigan\, Department of Slavic Languages and Literatures\nThe Polski Klub and Polish Cultural Fund - Ann Arbor

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:Exhibition:Greetings from Gibraltar
DESCRIPTION:Reception: Friday\, October 11 @ 7:00pm in North Quad Space 2435\nExhibition: October 1-18\, 9am - 6pm\n\nThe exhibition foregrounds the Strait of Gibraltar both as a geographical unit that separates and links lands on either side\, as well as a space in its own right with programs such as fishing\, swimming\, travelling\, shipping\, and conquering. Greetings from Gibraltar draws on the geographic as a design paradigm\, a condition in which designers are being compelled to address and transform larger contexts and address issues\, which had previously been confined to the domains of engineering\, ecology\, or regional planning. \n\nThe need to address such ”˜geographic’ aspects has prompted designers to re-examine tools of representation as well forms of the architectural object.\n\nThe work was developed in the context of a 2013 University of Michigan Taubman College of Architecture and Urban Planning Travel Studio to the Strait of Gibraltar. Over the four weeks of June 2013\, the studio travelled from Madrid through Granada\, Seville\, Cadiz\, Gibraltar/La Linea\, Algeciras\, Ceuta\, Tangier\, and Fez. The studio was initiated in analytic and cartographic investigations of individual port-cities case studies\, subsequently complied to highlight relational geographies\, flows\, add exchanges across the Strait. The travel journey began with a passion for sensory and aesthetic knowledge anchored by seascapes.\n\nThe resultant is a landscape that depicts space and time. The postcard-joiners construct a map of the Strait together with the series of architectural interventions proposed in that geography. It \nalso creates a narrative\, as if the viewer moved through the space\, encountering a series of detail views as well as constructing a panorama and a map of the landscape.\n\nGibraltar Studio 2013\nProfessors: Rania Ghosn and El Hadi Jazairy\nStudents: John Arnold\, Peter Dumbadze\, Lyla Feinsod\, Phillip Gavrilovski\, Monica Griffin\, Andrew Ko\, Yuan Liang\, Yunzhi Ou\, Jason Park\, Austin Tsai\, Adam Wagner\, Suo Ya\n\nSpecial thanks to Andrew Ko for coordinating the exhibition.\n\nAcknowledgments: Monica Ponce De Leon\, Dean Taubman College of Architecture and Urban Planning\n\nA note about the travel studio to Gibraltar:\nThe studio investigates the geographic as a design question. The Strait of Gibraltar is the only natural entrance to the semi-enclosed Mediterranean Sea. It is one of the busiest shipping lanes in the world\, second only to the Malacca Straits in Singapore. Europe and Africa are separated by 14 km at the narrowest point\, and ferries cross between the two continents every day in as little as 35 minutes.\n\nThe Strait of Gibraltar has for long stimulated the architectural imaginary. As early as the 1920s the German architect Herman Sorgel proposed damming Gibraltar and draining the Mediterranean to unite Europe and Africa into a new supercontinent. The project aspired to provide a \"habitat\" in North Africa for an overpopulated Europe. How do contemporary issues of access to water\, food\, energy\, and the rescaling of the political question requalify the megaproject imaginary\, regional networks\, and the geographic project?\n\nThe studio explores the architectural and urban potentials of the territory of Gibraltar addressing its conditions as a spatial enclave\, a gateway to the Mediterranean\, and a bridge between Africa and Europe. Along the lines of the journal New Geographies\, the studio responds to a condition in which designers are increasingly compelled to address and transform larger contexts and to respond to problems that had been confined to the domains of engineering\, ecology\, or policy.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:CJS Noon Lecture - A Maidservant's Tale: Japanese History and the Early Modern World
DESCRIPTION:In 1839\, a twice-divorced temple daughter from a small village in Echigo ran away to Edo. In a letter home\, she wrote that she wanted to enter a daimyo’s service and learn “the conduct and manners of the upper class.” Her brothers\, scandalized\, demanded that she return immediately. Instead\, she made a life for herself in the capital\, working a series of temporary maidservant jobs and ultimately marrying a samurai in the service of the Edo city magistrate. This talk places her story of urban migration and service work in a global context. It considers how we might find a place for Japanese women in the history of global early modernity\, which tends to emphasize instances of travel and exchange at the expense of the stories of the majority of individuals (particularly women)\, who stayed within “national” boundaries.\n\nAbout the Speaker:\nAmy Stanley specializes in the history of early modern and modern Japan\, with a particular interest in how common people contributed to Japan’s economic\, political\, and social transformation in the mid-nineteenth century. She received her Ph.D. in East Asian Languages and Civilizations from Harvard University in 2007. Her first book\, Selling Women: Prostitution\, Markets\, and the Household in Early Modern Japan (University of California Press\, 2012)\, explains how the growing business of selling sex reconfigured women’s places in the household\, the marketplace\, and the Tokugawa state. Professor Stanley has also written articles on education for geisha in the 1870’s and early modern peasants’ practices of settling adultery cases. Her new project is a microhistory that investigates how a woman in Japan experiences divorce\, service work\, and urban migration in the context of global early modernity.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Four Decades
DESCRIPTION:Four Decades\, a new exhibition featuring the work of School of Art & Design Professor Dennis Guastella and Ron Teachworth will present a retrospective selection of each artist’s work from the 1970's to the present.\n\nA public reception honoring the artists will take place in the Gallery on Sunday\, October 13\, from 3-5pm. (Free parking is available on Sundays.)\n\nBoth artists work in a variety of media\, and have an ongoing commitment to non-objective painting.The richly developed surfaces of Dennis Guastella's paintings demonstrate his passion for the physical beauty of paint explored through a variety of application methods ranging from squeeze bottles to thick layers of acrylic paint that are dried on a non-absorbent surface\, removed\, and then cut and collaged onto a final painting panel. \n\nRon Teachworth's abstractions evolved from his early landscape paintings. These interpretations developed into paintings called \"Sky Fields\" where the entire canvas became a unified surface activated by thousands of small brush strokes of color. \n\nTo learn more about the artists visit their web sites below.\n\nDennis Guastella: http://theartofdennisguastella.blogspot.com\n\nRon Teachworth: http://www.ronteachworth.com\n

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:EEB Thursday Seminar Series
DESCRIPTION:My lab has focused on adaptive protein evolution\, with a particular focus on the function and evolution of reproductive proteins. The rapid divergence of reproductive proteins could result in speciation due to the mismatch of sperm-egg recognition molecules. Our approach is highly integrative\, using proteomics\, genomics\, biochemical and computational approaches. We work on a variety of taxonomic groups\, including abalone\, plants\, Drosophila and primates. I will demonstrate how the use of proteomics has been invaluable for the study of reproductive protein evolution in these systems. In particular\, I will focus on how studies of molecular co-evolution can shed light on the function of reproductive proteins including predicting protein - protein interactions.

SUMMARY:Performance:James Keelaghan & Jez Lowe
DESCRIPTION:Dirty Linen calls Britain's Jez Lowe \"a songwriter whose music reflects a heartfelt respect and appreciation for the working people who are ground beneath the wheels of corporate and governmental machinery.\" Jez Lowe tells stories of the people of his native northeast England. He emerged onto the folk scene in his trademark striped shirt in 1980\, and since then his songs have been recorded by the Tannahill Weavers\, Fairport Convention\, Cherish the Ladies\, and many other leading lights of folk music in the British Isles. \n\nJames Keelaghan is listed in the Canadian Encyclopedia (his entry\, he's pleased to note\, is longer than the one for the Royal Bank but shorter than the Red Squirrel entry). His art is deeply rooted in his native country\, but he has a following all over the English-speaking world. Why? There are lots of reasons\, but when you get right down to it\, James Keelaghan is a true storyteller–an explorer of North America's history and peoples (including those of Latin descent\, who have also influenced him musically)\, of the natural world\, of the dark corners of his own psyche. He seems to tap into the deep roots of folk music even as he forges a style that's all his own.
