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:Sibande On Campus: Exhibit: The wait seems to go on forever (mural\, 2008) 
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.

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:Political Humor in Gilbert and Sullivan--OLLI at U-M (50+)
DESCRIPTION:The University of Michigan Gilbert and Sullivan Society The University of Michigan Gilbert and Sullivan Society is the oldest student-run society in the nation dedicated to performing the delightful operettas of Sir William Gilbert and Sir Arthur Sullivan. Gilbert and Sullivan were renowned for their clever plots\, catchy music\, witty characters\, and their political satire. No one in the British realm was spared\, not even Queen Victoria herself. What is remarkable about the jokes made at the expense of the political system is that they still can be found humorous in today’s society. G & S members will present and discuss some examples of these works.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:CJS Noon Lecture - The Painting of Sadness?: The Beginnings and Ends of Nihonga
DESCRIPTION:The term nihonga (“Japanese painting”) arose in the 1880s\, when the notion of a national school of art enjoyed widespread currency. Recently\, artists have increasingly probed the boundaries between nihonga and Japanese contemporary art in general\, raising doubts about whether nihonga should continue to exist at all. This question is not as new as we might assume. From its earliest years\, the idea of modern Japanese-style painting was bound up with images of the death of Japanese art. This begs the question of why\, nonetheless\, nihonga has enjoyed such a long and prosperous life.\n\nAbout the Speaker:\nChelsea Foxwell is Assistant Professor of Art History at the University of Chicago\, where she specializes in the history of Japanese art. She is the author of In Search of Images: Kano Hogai and the Making of Modern Japanese-Style Painting (forthcoming from the University of Chicago Press).

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:Conversations on Europe
DESCRIPTION:David Bell\, Sidney and Ruth Lapidus Professor in the Era of North Atlantic Revolutions and professor of history\, Princeton University.\n\nThe talk offers a historical argument about the birth of militarism\, which Bell defines as the imposition of military values\, ideas\, and practices on civilian society. Bell will argue that militarism as thus defined can only emerge in societies which acknowledge a distinction between “military” and “civilian” spheres\, and that most early modern European societies did not.  He will lay out several conditions which allowed for the emergence of the distinction\, and suggest that in modern times these conditions were first fulfilled in France in the period of the French Revolution. The speaker will also trace the actual emergence of militarist ideas in France in its revolutionary decade\, and how they subsequently spread beyond France.\n\nDavid A. Bell is Sidney and Ruth Lapidus Professor in the Era of North Atlantic Revolutions in the Department of History at Princeton University. Educated at Harvard and Princeton\, he is a specialist in the history of early modern France. His principal books are Lawyers and Citizens (1994)\, The Cult of the Nation in France (2001)\, and The First Total War (2007). He is the recipient of Guggenheim\, Burkhardt\, and NEH fellowships\, and a winner of the Pinkney\, Gershoy\, and Gottschalk book prizes. He is a contributing editor to The New Republic magazine\, a member of the editorial board of The American Historical Review\, and a delegate for world history at Oxford University Press.
