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.

Blackburn earned a BFA from Ohio State University\, and her studio is Grins Clay.

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)

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Chinese Now : Contemporary Portraits 
DESCRIPTION:The Confucius Institute and Penny W. Stamps School of Art & Design at the University of Michigan host an art exhibition \"Chinese Now: Contemporary Portraits\" presented by 31 faculty members from the School of Arts\, Renmin University of China. Professor TANG Keyang (Associate Professor\, School of Arts\, \nRenmin University of China) succinctly explains what this exhibition tries to accomplish. \"In this exhibition\, the people of China are brought to life in the vision of the artists. Freed from the limitations of a single concept\, style\, image\, or form\, the only thing the Chinese people represented here have in common is a disregard for the stereotypes long associated with them. The concern of this exhibition is in establishing the cultural sensibilities of contemporary China\, just as different peoples\, at different times\, have engaged art as a vital social response to the movement of history. As Professor Leo Ou-fan Lee has noted\, engagement with these cultural sensibilities allows an audience to grasp “certain core feelings\, the stuff which moves us” so inherent in the drama of life. In presenting this exhibition\, the hope is that an understanding of these core feelings will form the basis for meaningful intercultural dialogue.\"

SUMMARY:Conference / Symposium:Territory\, Austerity\, and Social Inequality
DESCRIPTION:Whether it is Americans debating the role of states in Obamacare or Scots debating secession\, the relationship between decentralization and social policy inspires passion. The core question is: Is decentralization good for the welfare state? Does it mean innovation\, competition\, and low costs\, or niggardliness\, inefficiency\, and inequity? The social sciences\, for all their collective research on both social policy and political decentralization\, do not have a good answer. Until now it has been because they lack a crucial kind of data: comparable data on the role of state and regional governments. This conference redresses the gap\, bringing together experts from federal countries around the world to shed new light on the key questions of federalism\, territorial politics and public policy.\n\nTerritory\, Austerity\, and Social Inequality is sponsored by the U-M Office of the Vice President for Research (OVPR) and Rackham School of Graduate Studies joint initiative \"Social Sciences Annual Institute\" and the Department of Health Management and Policy in the School of Public Health.

SUMMARY:Other:Archizines Exhibition Opening
DESCRIPTION:As a follow-up to last year's \"Clip/Stamp/Fold\,\" Archizines celebrates the resurgence of alternative and independent architectural publishing around the world. The touring exhibition\, curated by Elias Redstone and initiated in collaboration with the Architectural Association\, features 100 architecture magazines\, fanzines and journals from over twenty countries that provide an alternative to the established architectural press. Edited by architects\, artists and students\, these publications provide new platforms for commentary\, criticism and research into the spaces we inhabit and the practice of architecture. They make an important and often radical addition to architectural discourse and demonstrate a residual love for printed matter in the digital age. The exhibition will transform the gallery into a reading room. Visitors can hold and read the publications on display\, as well as see video interviews with the authors and editors of the publications.

SUMMARY:Film Screening:CJS Film Series - The Magino Village Story: Sundail Carved with a Thousand Years of Notches
DESCRIPTION:This is Ogawa Productions’ other masterpiece\, bringing together all the themes Ogawa explored in his oeuvre: farming\, state violence\, resistance\, modernization\, and village time. The film masterfully combines the conventions of the science film with Griersonian documentary sequences about ghosts and gods\, along with fictional sequences featuring cameos by the likes of butoh founder Tatsumi Hijikata (his last performance) and Roman Porno star Junko Miyashita. It is a thoughtful meditation on history and the way it is never quite ”˜past’ in village Japan. If Ogawa’s first films and the Sanrizuka Series arc from the self-centered concerns of the student movement to a collective effort at understanding the communal way of life of the village\, then the “Magino Village Story” displays a similar arcing movement away from the collective toward the powerful individual expression of Ogawa Shinsuke.

SUMMARY:Performance:Rent
DESCRIPTION:Based loosley on Puccini's La Boheme\, Jonathan Larson's RENT follows a year in the life of a group of impoverished young artists and musicians struggling to survive and create in New York's Lower East Side\, under the shadow of HIV/AIDS. The physical and emotional complications of the disease pervade the lives of Roger\, Mimi\, Tom\, and Angel. Maureen deals with her chronic infidelity through performance art\; her partner\, Joanne\, wonders if their relationship is worth the trouble. Benny has sold out his Bohemian ideals in exchange for a hefty income and is on the outs with his former friends. Mark\, an aspiring filmmaker\, feels like an outsider to life in general. How these young bohemians negotiate their dreams\, lovs\, and conflicts provides the narrative thread to this groundbreaking musical.

SUMMARY:Performance:Willy Porter
DESCRIPTION:Spend an evening with Willy Porter\, and you'll experience a rare communion between artist and audience. His concerts are one-of-a-kind events in which amazing guitar chops and songwriting merge into a single unit. Porter's acoustic guitar skills have drawn comparisons with those of Leo Kottke\, who drew the young Willy Porterinto music the first time he heard the \"6 & 12 String Guitar\" album. He continues to stretch each show by incorporating performance art\, live audio looping\, and improvisational sketch comedy. Each tour date becomes a unique event\, a musical experience much greater than just a review of past\, present and future recorded work.
