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 Pierced Porcelain
DESCRIPTION:In this current body of work\, Kate Tremel is interested in taking a fresh look at traditional pottery forms within a functional context. She has returned to a technique that she learned years ago as an exchange student in Peru - thinning and shaping porcelain using a wooden paddle and river stone. Tremel finds the challenge of piercing the thin walls of the clay at their most fragile state to be an exercise in understanding the fleeting tenuousness of beauty itself. Among other things\, Tremel is a lecturer at the U-M Penny W. Stamps School of Art and Design.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Gifts of Art presents Stitched Impressions: Art Quilts
DESCRIPTION:Textile artist Carole Harris is a Detroit native. Her mother introduced her to needle arts at an early age. After receiving a BFA in art and interior design from Wayne State\, she began to explore fibers as an art form. Many of her art quilts have architectural themes but she is most fascinated by the interplay of hue and pattern\, often drawing inspiration from the color\, energy\, movement\, and rhythms of ethnographic rituals as well as jazz\, blues and gospel music. Harris’ goal is to make her quilts dance with the same excitement\, exuberance and joy that music gives her. Her work has been exhibited in museums and galleries nationally and internationally\, and she is much in demand as a lecturer and juror.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Gifts of Art presents The Art of Storytelling: Fabric Appliqué
DESCRIPTION:Chris Roberts-Antieau’s work is about the mysterious origin of joy and the wonder of childhood. To create her witty fabric paintings\, she first hunts for her palette of fabrics: linens\, flannels\, cottons\, calicos\, even velvet. Then she cuts her designs freehand\, using the sewing machine as a drawing tool to define the borders of her figures with a beautiful\, almost invisible satin-stitch. Roberts-Antieau then finishes her pieces with hand embroidery work\, and frames the finished art behind glass in hand-painted frames. On exhibit in permanent collections across the country\, the joy in Roberts-Antieau’s award winning work is contagious.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Ten Thousand Urban and Rural Things: BASEbeijing
DESCRIPTION: The number ten thousand is not an exact number in Chinese. Traditionally\, ten thousand was thought of as such an unimaginably large number that it became the equivalent of infinity. The concept includes everything you can point to or even name -- all of reality.\n\nIt is sometimes translated as \"myriad creatures\" or \"ten thousand beings\,\" but that makes one falsely assume that the concept includes only living creatures. The ten thousand things also includes inanimate objects (such as rocks\, buildings\, stars)\, emptiness (like outer space or vacuums)\, and abstractions (such as dreams\, thoughts\, principles\, beliefs\, language\, the Internet).\n\nThe work done at BASEbeijing since 2006 has been a quest for finding\, experiencing\, collecting and acting upon ten thousand urban and rural things. The things collected and exhibited are a combination of \"real\" things\, forgeries\, duplications and representations. The work in the exhibit involved \"acting upon\" the ten thousand things\, often taking the form of books\, designed objects and structures done while in residence at BASE. While BASE was founded on a commitment to an interest in urban space\, our attention was quickly pulled toward the rural\, and we have come to find a surprising new space that is not one or the other\, but rather a continuity that involves both simultaneously.\n\nBASEbeijing is a collaboration involving students from Taubman College\, the University of Michigan\, and various schools in both the U.S. and China.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:The Two Faces of Mark Twain: Humor and Tragedy--OLLI at U-M (50+)
DESCRIPTION:Speaker: Lawrence I. Berkove\, Ph.D. Emeritus Professor of English Literature\, University of Michigan-Dearborn\n\n\nMark Twain is rightly considered one of the greatest humorists of all time. In recent years however\, because of more sophisticated ways of reading his literature and because of attention given to less well-known\, newly available\, and hitherto unpublished manuscripts\, he has also become known as an outspoken social critic and as a tragedian. How these widely different positions can be reconciled by an understanding of his art and values will be the subject of this discussion. Former president of the Mark Twain Circle of America\, and the author\, co-author\, and editor of essays\, books\, and monographs on Twain\,  Dr. Berkove's most recent book is “Heretical Fictions: Religion in the literature of Mark Twain.”

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:CJS Noon Lecture - Cogito Ergo Proxy: Radical Doubt in Japanese Anime
DESCRIPTION:This lecture will examine contemporary anime in terms of the relations among subjectivity\, technology\, and the politics that inform and condition them. Focus will be placed on a radical doubt of the reality of the self and how anime deploys not only its technical capabilities\, but its limitations in order to instantiate in the spectator\, crises analogous to those dramatized in the fiction\, and crises that such technical revolutions like cyberspace foment.\n\nAbout the Speaker:\nEarl Jackson\, Jr.\, Associate Professor Emeritus\, University of California\, Santa Cruz\, is currently Professor at National Chiao Tung University\, and Co-Director of the Trans-Asian Screen Cultures Institute. His publications include Strategies of Deviance\, and numerous articles on Japanese and Korean cinema. He is currently finishing a book on anime.

DESCRIPTION:Jewish modernity entailed not only a range of geographical\, political\, and linguistic shifts but also the transformation of traditional sex-gender cultural systems. Taking some case studies as our launching point\, we will explore the adoption of new modes of organizing gender\, the move from one language to another\, and the implications of such moves for writers\, translators\, and readers.

SUMMARY:Exhibition: Exhibit Opening  at the Art and Environment Gallery John Gutoskey
DESCRIPTION:The new exhibit features local artist John Gutoskey’s mixed-media work and opens Thursday November 7th with a talk by the artist followed by a reception.  The exhibit will be up for eight weeks. The Art and Environment Gallery at the School of Natural Resources and Environment was created to draw attention to the role of art in environmental education and stewardship. The gallery is located inside LEED-certified Dana\, the University of Michigan’s greenest building.\n\nJohn Gutoskey’s show\, “Upcycled Icons\,” transforms discarded waste into sacred artifacts\; his work shows how humble discarded materials can create the same visual impact as precious metals and jewels. Gutoskey uses these “upcycled icons” to explore alternative representations of spiritual energy\, and present a queer perspective on social and religious issues. \n\n “The arts provide a common language across cultures and professions\,” explains gallery director and curator Sara Adlerstein. “This gallery provides a forum for people to meet across disciplinary fields and within the community to talk about environmental issues.” Whether through educational outreach\, starting conversations\, or encouraging reflection on nature’s value\, the environmental arts convey compelling messages about sustainability.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:EEB Thursday Seminar Series
DESCRIPTION:Anthropologists think the change in human stature we see before us\, the ”˜human secular trend\,’ is too fast to be evolution.  Geneticists think rapid change in laboratory selection experiments is artificial and couldn’t be sustained in nature.  Paleontologists think evolution is slow because rates calculated for change in the fossil record are infinitesimal.  Who is right and who is wrong?  How fast is evolution?\n\nMany phenotypic traits of interest in evolution are normally (log-normally) distributed because they are polygenic: differences between populations are naturally measured in standard deviation units.  Evolution is a process that takes place through time.  Natural selection acts generation by generation on phenotypic variance:  evolutionary time is appropriately measured in generations.  More time usually means more difference.  Hence rates are calculated for comparison\, in units called haldanes (not darwins):  standard deviations per generation\, not factors of e per million years. \n\nHere things get interesting because a rate per generation on a time scale of one generation is rarely the same as a rate per generation on a time scale of ten\, or a hundred\, or a thousand generations.  Scale is important.  Further\, there are different kinds of selection.  Stabilizing selection and directional selection have cumulative fractal scaling effects\, meaning they leave fingerprints and can be recognized by characteristic rate distributions. \n\nHow fast is evolution?  Ask the question carefully because the answer depends on the question.  Are you interested in the evolutionary process or the history of life?

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:LSI Follow the Science: When Cancer Cells Invade
DESCRIPTION:How are cancer cells able to spread through the body\, moving through other tissues as they metastasize? Understanding the mechanics of metastasis has opened a door to the discovery of new drugs to help keep cancer in check. The research of Stephen J. Weiss at U-M's Life Sciences Institute has produced findings could lead to the rapid development of new anticancer drugs that block the disease's invasion. At this lecture\, Dr. Weiss will explain his work and discuss some of the new treatments on the horizon.\n\n\nLocation: Forum Hall\, Palmer Commons\, 100 Washtenaw Avenue\, Ann Arbor. Public parking is available in the visitor garage on Palmer Drive. Refreshments provided. \n\nFollow the Science \nLecture Series 2013-14\nHow research is revolutionizing our approach to health\, disease and treatments\n\nThese lectures are offered by scientists in the Life Sciences Institute and are designed for a curious lay audience with no formal science background. All lectures are free and open to all\, and followed by complimentary refreshments and a Q&A session with the speaker.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:WCED Lecture
DESCRIPTION:Karima Bennoune (JD ’94)\, professor of law\, University of California\, Davis. Respondent: Fatma MÃ¼ge GÃ¶Ã§ek\, professor of sociology\, U-M. \n\nProfessor Bennoune will present the “Arab Spring” chapter of her forthcoming book\, Your Fatwa Does Not Apply Here: Untold Stories from the Fight Against Muslim Fundamentalism. Entitled “Sidi Bouzid Blues and the Green Wave: Journeys through the Arab Spring and Fall\,” this aspect of her work recounts the hopes and concerns of women’s rights defenders in Tunisia and Egypt after the revolutions of 2011. In particular\, it focuses on the challenges to their work posed by the subsequent rise of fundamentalism in their countries\, and the difficult strategic choices that this gives rise to in transition periods. Having escaped relatively secular autocracies\, are they now doomed to theocracy? Or can they break out of the so-called Islamist dilemma which offers these as the only available alternatives?\n \nBennoune will also discuss her follow up research across the region during summer 2013\, in light of recent developments\, including the removal of Mohamed Morsi as President of Egypt\, the recent twentieth anniversary of the start of Algeria’s “dar decade” and the ongoing drafting of the new Tunisian constitution.\n\nKarima Bennoune is Professor of Law at the University of California-Davis\, where she teaches courses on issues related to international law and human rights. She graduated from a joint program in law and Middle Eastern and North African studies at the University of Michigan\, earning a J.D. cum laude and an M.A.\, as well as a Graduate Certificate in Women’s Studies. She came to UC Davis after ten years at Rutgers School of Law-Newark where she was Professor of Law and Arthur L. Dickson Scholar. Professor Bennoune has also been a visiting scholar and visiting professor at the University of Michigan Law School where she won the L. Hart Wright Award for Excellence in teaching. Her publications have appeared in many leading academic journals\, and have been widely cited by news media\, NGOs\, and governmental reports. She has shared her expertise as a consultant for a number of organizations\, and has made frequent media appearances and contributions\, in addition to presenting lectures in academic settings around the world. Her human rights field missions have included Afghanistan\, Bangladesh\, Fiji\, Lebanon\, Pakistan\, South Korea\, Thailand\, and Tunisia.

SUMMARY:Performance:Dar Williams
DESCRIPTION:Dar Williams is a longtime Ark favorite who finds the personal in the political and the universal–and sets folk commitment to great pop tunes. Dar has always kept audiences guessing. Are her songs autobiographical? They're so vivid\, and they seem so personal\, that you assume they must be. But Dar says that she prefers to write about and for other people. Her songs tell stories of politics\, religion\, sexuality\, and family\, and the grassroots activism she has practiced often finds its way into her music. Dar comes to Michigan with a new album\, \"In the Time of Gods.\" Its lyrics traffic in the complex and mysterious world of mythology\, which aligned with other issues the singer-songwriter was grappling with. \"I'm interested in power right now\,\" Dar says. \"I’m in my 40s\, and I’m shocked that the café conversations I had in my 20s-’Somebody has to do something!’- are now my responsibility. I see people who are actually doing things that you always dreamed somebody would do\, and I can help make that a reality. So the stakes are higher\, in a good way\, but you also see the shadow\, the reckless behavior\, where a person can lose it all in a weekend.\"
