SUMMARY:Exhibition:4\,000 Years for Choice
DESCRIPTION:This exhibition combines two projects by graphic designer Heather Ault. \"4\,000 Years for Choice\" is an exhibition of posters about the age-old practice of abortion and contraception as a means to reclaim reproductive freedom as a deeply personal and life-sustaining act existing throughout all of human history. The \"Reproductive Roots\" series shines a bright light on the many voices from the abortion care and reproductive justice movements\, using vividly designed social media graphics and notecards to inspire conversations from a breadth of perspectives. \n\nHeather Ault is a visual artist\, pro-choice activist\, and independent scholar creating artwork to shift conversations about reproductive rights and justice. She uses vibrant graphics\, affirmative language\, and historical accounts to transform ugly discord into visual narratives that are beautiful and empowering.\n\nThe exhibition is presented by the Institute for Research on Women and Gender and the Women's Studies Department. It is cosponsored by the Program for Sexual Rights and Reproductive Justice\, the Department of Obstetrics and Gynecology and the Penny W. Stamps School of Art & Design. \n\n

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Gifts of Art presents Back Home in Earth’s Garden: Clay & Fibers
DESCRIPTION:Susan Sutherland Barnes has been exploring patterns in nature and the combining of clay and fibers for over thirty years. Her early background\, in painting and printmaking and later a BFA in fibers from St. Mary's College in Notre Dame\, Indiana\, has fostered a unique perspective on working with clay. In this recent body of work\, she continues to follow her interest in the leaf as an iconic motif and incorporates these explorations in a new group of pieces combining round reed basketry and stoneware. Sutherland Barnes recently returned to her home state of Michigan after twenty years away and now maintains a clay and fibers studio in Paw Paw\, Michigan.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Gifts of Art presents Fusion & Separation: Mixed Media on Panel
DESCRIPTION:Mary Rousseaux's works appear to be flowing liquid that melds on the surface. The painting materials both fuse and separate\, settling into forms that depict unions. Often deep within the dense surfaces are linear elements\, which add a graceful and lyrical quality. \"I am influenced by nature and the elemental battle fought for balance in the environment”¦ Things that once held a simple position become more complex in the erosion\,\" says Rousseaux.  She maintains a large loft studio in an industrial building in Detroit\, and her work is included in many private and corporate collections.

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 Snap Line on Detroit: Ink on Rag Paper
DESCRIPTION:Margi Weir began making drawings of ink and ink wash about 10 years ago using a technique that she calls snap line. A snap line is the mark made by dipping cotton twine into liquid ink or diluted ink\, pulling it tight and snapping it against the paper in an action similar to plucking a guitar string. Some of the drawings in this exhibition explore the technique itself\, and some describe the terrain in New Mexico where she lived before she moved to Detroit in 2009 to join Wayne State University faculty. In the most recent drawings\, Weir studies the skeletons of buildings in Detroit and explores her fascination with empty spaces – the terrain vagues – left by the destruction and reclamation of Detroit's neighborhoods.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Gifts of Art presents Textures & Patterns: Ceramics
DESCRIPTION:The compositions in Mary Ellen Taylor's abstract ceramic pieces touch on chaos but maintain clarity through positive and negative spaces\, continuous and broken lines\, and repeating colors. Her process begins with soft clay slabs that are formed over molds\, cut into tiles and constructed into 3D shapes. Taylor creates textures and pattern on the forms from plastic mats\, stamps\, rollers and found objects that are impressed and then layered. She uses opaque and thinned applications of color for the glaze firing. Taylor\, who is a retired art educator based in Toledo\, Ohio\, earned a Bachelor of Education Degree from the University of Toledo and a MFA from Bowling Green State University.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Scales of Contact:
DESCRIPTION:Scales of Contact: Architecture & Global Infrastructures\, an exhibition of architecture research by Taubman College graduate students\, opens to the public at the University of Michigan Museum of Natural History this Monday\, December 16. \n\nTen students collaboratively designed and fabricated a modified cabinet-of-curiosities to contain select images\, drawings\, and models from the fall semester’s Vast Machines architecture studio taught by Assistant Professor Meredith Miller. Centered in the museum’s rotunda\, the white plastic monolith is punctured by multiple view-holes\, offering glimpses of the students’ globally-oriented design and research projects\, represented in miniature. The ten student projects each proposed an “earth observatory” at the intersection of a particular global system and the local environments\, material conditions\, and visual cultures that system intersects.\n\nStudio Brief:\nThe recent book by Paul N. Edwards\, A Vast Machine: Computer Models\, Climate Data\, and the Politics of Global Warming\, discusses the controversy around climate science over the authority of data models versus empirical observation. Requiring an extensive global infrastructure of data gathering and weather monitoring\, scholarship and policy\, instruments and standards\, climate models synthesize data amassed at the scale of the world. They fill in gaps between measurements\, account for variations in instruments\, and advance comprehensive predictions based on dynamic patterns run forward. It could be argued then that the model is a more complete representation of reality than observable reality itself.\n\nCosmology and cosmography set the stage for globalization\; imaginations of the world in its entirety precede direct access to the globe through sight. Well before the Apollo photographs of the “whole earth” came to symbolize an emerging ecological consciousness\, visual representations and conceptual models made sensible various theories about planetary mechanics and lent an aesthetic sensibility to the political\, theological\, and existential ideas associated with them.\n\nWith the Whole Earth generation as our precedent\, the VAST MACHINES studio identifies new technologies of planetary consequence\, updates the political issues at stake and defines the current sensibilities of today’s “Whole Earth.” Student projects explicate specific infrastructures of global knowledge and exchange as the context for local acts of architecture. The exhibition\, Scales of Contact\, concludes the term by reformatting their studio projects as a collection of possible worlds. \n

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:Nam Center Colloquium Series: Performance Presentation in Korean Poetry: \"The Sijo\"
DESCRIPTION:The performance dimensions of Korea’s culture have become more and more recognized around the world these days.  Psy and his Gangnam Style is but one example\, though an amazing one.  \n\nKorean poetry has also been a part of a performance tradition in Korea\, though perhaps because of the language barrier and the challenges of translation\, Korean poems and poets\, classical\, modern\, and contemporary\, are not yet so widely recognized.  No Nobel Prize in Literature for a Korean author–yet.\n\nMost everyone knows a haiku when they see one\, but its Korean counterpart\, the sijo\, is not well known.  Yet the sijo has a long and fascinating history\, a remarkable range of texts\, and a dynamic performance tradition worth knowing better\, and for the brave or for the young\, worth a try in English.\n\nDavid McCann has translated sijo\, and a few years ago\, following his own example in his class on Writing Asian Poetry\, began writing it in English.  A book of his sijo poems\, Urban Temple\, was published in English in 2010\, and in a dual-language\, Korean and English edition in Korea in 2013.  He will introduce the form\, its history and a few exemplary texts\, try out some of his own sijo poems with the audience\, and make some time available for writing a sijo\, for those bold enough to try.\n\nDavid McCann is Korea Foundation Professor of Korean Literature in the Department of East Asian Languages and Civilizations at Harvard University. His several prizes\, grants\, and fellowships include the Cultural Order of Merit awarded by the Korean government\, the Manhae Prize in Arts and Sciences\, the Daesan Foundation Translation Grant\, and the Korea P.E.N. Center Translation Prize. His books include Azaleas\, a book of poems by Kim Sowôl\, Traveler Maps: Poems by Ko Un\, The Columbia Anthology of Modern Korean Poetry\, Early Korean Literature: Selections and Introductions\, War and Democracy: A Comparative Study of the Korean War and the Peloponnesian War (with Barry S. Strauss) and The Classical Moment: Views from Seven Literatures (with Gail H. Warhaft).  His poems have been published in Poetry\, Salamander\, Runes\, Café Review\, Off the Coast\, and other journals.  His poem “David” was included in the Pushcart Prize Anthology III.  His recent books of poems include a chapbook\, Cat Bird Tree (Pudding House Publications\, 2004)\, The Way I Wait For You (Codhill Press\, 2007)\, and a collection of poems in the sijo form\, Urban Temple (Bo Leaf Books\, 2010) with a Korean-English edition from Changbi Publishers in 2012.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:The War on Poverty: A Retrospective
DESCRIPTION:Martin Luther King’s final book\, \"Where Do We Go from Here: Chaos or Community\" articulated a critique of the War on Poverty and related programs. Pointing to the inadequacy of funding and the lack of coordination among federal programs aimed at eradicating poverty\, he argued for guaranteed income for all Americans. \n\nOn this 50th anniversary of the War on Poverty\, we revisit this program and its impact in the context of King’s argument. \n\nThe panel includes Martha Bailey (Economics)-- the history of the War on Poverty\, Robert Mickey (Political Science)--the legislation from the perspective of race\, Mary Corcoran (Political Science\, Public Policy) -- gender and poverty\, and Laura Lein (Social Work\, Anthropology)--the effects of welfare reform on women in poverty. Deborah Keller-Cohen (Linguistics\, Women’s Studies) will moderate.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:Truth V. Truthiness
DESCRIPTION:Join Jessie Daniels of CUNY as she discusses internet propaganda.\n\nThe Internet enables new strategies for propaganda that are simultaneously deceptive\, difficult to detect and potentially effective at eroding the foundation of progressive political action. In this talk\, Daniels provides a tour of cloaked sites\, which disguise a range of political agendas\, from the white supremacists owned URL MartinLutherKing dot org\, to Teen Breaks dot com to exhort young women about the dangers of so-called “post –abortion syndrome\,” a pro-life rhetorical strategy disguised as a medical diagnosis\, coal industry sites like Americans for Balanced Energy Choices which challenge facts of global warming. Daniels connects these digital era examples of propaganda on the popular Internet to political satire such as Stephen Colbert’s arch-conservative character to argue that we are at an epistemological crossroads between “truth\,” and “truthiness” that raises important political questions about social justice.\n\nPart of the Feminist Digital Pedagogies series.\n#FemTechNet\n\nSponsored by Digital Studies at the University of Michigan\, The Department of American Culture\, the Institute for Research on Women & Gender\, and the Cohn Fund in the Department of Screen Arts and Culture. Additional supporters to be named at event.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:How Exactly Do You Heal the Divide?
DESCRIPTION:Come join members of the Office of Student Conflict Resolution Student Advisory Board in a unique dialogue exploring the encouragement provided by this year’s theme for the MLK Symposium – “Power\, Justice\, Love: Heal the Divide.” This event will provide an opportunity for students to voice their opinion and express their thoughts on the divides they witness in the campus community and how we go about working through the conflict that often results. Our aim is to create a safe place for students of different backgrounds to learn from each other and consider available options for addressing or healing the divide in moments of conflict. Special attention will be paid to tangible action steps we can take as individuals and as a community as a result of our time together. And as an additional bonus\, a light dinner will be provided!

SUMMARY:Performance:The Honeycutters
DESCRIPTION:The Honeycutters are an original country roots band from Asheville\, North Carolina. Since 2007\, when the group formed\, they have been playing music that is consistently as catchy as it is heartfelt. Organically grown around the songs of lead singer Amanda Anne Platt\, the band has gained an audience that has stretched far beyond their mountain home to include all corners of the United States. Platt's voice has been described as “perfectly unadorned” and “recklessly beautiful.\" Despite her love for classic country\, she cites Bruce Springsteen and Tom Petty as major influences and her songwriting carries a wit and an edge that plants her firmly in her generation. Since the release of their first studio album in 2009\, The Honeycutters have shared the stage with such Americana greats as Guy Clark\, Tony Rice\, The Seldom Scene\, Ray Wylie Hubbard\, Donna The Buffalo\, Jill Andrews\, and The Steep Canyon Rangers. \"I can see a day when her name is mentioned alongside Lucinda Williams\, Mary Gauthier and Gillian Welch\,\" says The Real Southern of Platt's songs. \"She’s just that good.”\n
