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: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: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:ASP Lecture
DESCRIPTION:Alison Vacca\, Manoogian Post-doctoral Fellow\, U-M. Sponsors: ASP\, CMENAS\, Medieval and Early Modern Studies.\n\nThis talk will address the currents in nineteenth- and twentieth-century historiography concerning the Arab period in Armenia\, focusing specifically on the use of Arabic and Armenian sources in the works of Armenian\, European\, and Arab scholars. In particular\, it will consider some of the difficulties in the medieval textual material available concerning this period and will also introduce the speaker’s project on Åewond’s eighth- or ninth-century history ArÅ¡awank”˜ Arabac”˜ i Hays [Arab Invasions into Armenia]. She is currently working with a thirteenth-century manuscript of this Armenian history\, which covers the establishment of the Caliphate\, developments in medieval Armenia\, and relations between Byzantium and Islam from 632 to 788. The ensuing discussion will review a few specific examples of confusing or interesting details from Åewond’s text and how to contextualize them with consideration of historical sources in both Arabic and Armenian.   \n\nAlison Vacca received her Ph.D. in Near Eastern Studies from the University of Michigan. Her dissertation\, “From K'usti Kapkoh to al-Garbi: Sasanian Antecedents\, the Sectarian Milieu\, and the Creation of an Islamic Frontier in Arminiya (c. 700–862 CE)\,” explores the interrelation of religious and ethnic groups in the Near East. In particular she is interested in the eighth- or ninth-century historian Åewond and his ArÅ¡awank' Arabac' i Hays\, an Armenian history covering establishment of the Caliphate\, developments in medieval Armenia\, and relations between Byzantium and Islam from 632 to 788. She plans to contextualize Åewond’s contribution with the literary production of the medieval Near East. Alison was a Fulbright Scholar at the Hebrew University of Jerusalem where she studied Islamic\, Armenian\, and Jerusalemite history as well as Arabic\, Armenian\, and Hebrew. She has also completed a Certificate in Museum Studies\, which included interning in the Islamic art collection at the Royal Ontario Museum.
