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 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:In the Garden Grows a Lump: Rare Books on the Picturesque
DESCRIPTION:\"In the Garden Grows a Lump\" is an exhibition and drawing colloquium organized around rare illustrated manuscripts on picturesque gardens.

The exhibition will include 15-20 manuscripts\, a series of printed\, enlarged reproductions of drawings in the manuscripts to show detail and technique\, and a series of large-format drawings that interpret and analyze the historical source material. It will be accompanied by a colloquium with visiting scholars. Assistant Professor Andrew Holder organized the exhibition and designed the installation.\n\nSponsored by The Guido A.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Exhibit: Plainly Spoken
DESCRIPTION:View a range of binding ideas that came to fruition: models that replicate books from a historical period\, cut-aways that visually reveal their hidden structure\, design bindings that interpret a concept from the text\, and artists’ bindings that play with structures and materials to create something new.\n\nIn this traveling exhibit the Midwest Chapter of the Guild of Book Workers showcases archivist and book conservator Julia Miller’s text Books Will Speak Plain. Incorporating 30 years of her notes and observations\, the 500-page handbook is aimed at conservators\, collectors\, librarians\, and book lovers\, for the identification and description of book structures and styles. Bookbinders from across the country acquired the text of the book in folded sheets and\, months later\, presented them to a jury as completed books with custom bindings.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:Adam Ashforth Lecture: \"Witchcraft\, Justice\, Human Rights: Current Concerns and African Examples\"
DESCRIPTION:In recent years international organizations and humanitarian groups\, along with refugee activists and lawyers\, have become concerned about violence against suspected “witches” in Africa\, particularly when it involves “vulnerable groups” such as women\, children\, the disabled\, or the elderly. This paper argues that that the problem of witchcraft violence in Africa is extremely important\, though not in the way humanitarians perceive it to be. The extent of violence against suspected witches is minimal. The violence putative witches are perceived as perpetrating against members of their families and communities\, however\, is vast. While violent punishment of “witches” does from time to time occur\, the vast majority of witchcraft cases are dealt with without violence. Witchcraft\, however\, produces profound problems of security and justice. Drawing on recent research in Malawi\, this paper examines witchcraft trials in a chief’s court and a magistrate’s court to show how local authorities are working to create a sense of justice and security in the face of what are perceived to be immense dangers.\n\nAdam Ashforth has published extensively on state formation and the political implications of spiritual insecurity in everyday life in South Africa. During South Africa's transition to democracy he spent many years living and writing in Soweto. He is currently researching responses to the HIV/AIDS epidemic in everyday life in rural Malawi and ethnic conflict in Kenya's Rift Valley. His publications include three books: The Politics of Official Discourse in Twentieth-Century South Africa (Oxford\, 1990)\; Madumo\, A Man Bewitched (Chicago\, 2000)\; and Witchcraft\, Violence\, and Democracy in South Africa (Chicago\, 2005) [winner of the Herskovits Award\, 2005].

SUMMARY:Performance:George Kahumoku & Ledward Kaapana
DESCRIPTION:Tonight's show offers a rare Midwestern appearance by two of the masters of the Hawaiian slack key guitar\, playing the music that Hawaiians play among themselves. They'll perform togehter\, and a pair of Hula dancers will be in attendance. George Kahumoku Jr. has been called Hawaii's Renaissance Man. A multiple Grammy and Hoku award winner\, he offers an annual slack key guitar and ukulele workshop that is one of the great musical learning experiences in the Islands today\, and the result of George's belief in sharing\, celebrating\, and perpetuating the unique music and culture that is Hawaii. George appears with Led Kaapana\, who has been called the Grand Master of Hawaiian Slack Key. Led's mastery of stringed instruments and his extraordinary baritone and leo ki`eki`e (falsetto) voices have made him a musical legend. He has been thrilling audiences for more than 40 years. With an easygoing style and kolohe (rascal) charm\, he has built a loyal corps of Led Heads from Europe to his birthplace on the Big Island of Hawaii. Like so many Hawaiians\, Led grew up in a musical family. In the tiny black sand bay village of Kalapana\, there were few distractions. \"We didn't have electricity\, no television\, not even much radio\,\" says Led. \"So we entertained ourselves. You could go to any house and everybody was playing music.\" It was at these family gatherings that Led learned to play in the old style\, watching\, listening\, then imitating. Chief among his teachers were his mother\, Mama Tina Kaapana\, and his uncle Fred Punahoa. \"Even today when I play\, I still picture all the `ohana (family) getting together and sharing their songs and their aloha.\" This is a chance to hear Hawaiian music as it grew organically\, below the mainland's commercial radar\, and it's a real tonic for a Michigan winter.
