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: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:CREES Noon Lecture
DESCRIPTION:Peter Holquist\, associate professor of history\, University of Pennsylvania\n\nMany people identify the concept of “crimes against humanity” with the Nuremberg Trial and believe the term arose as a reaction to the Holocaust. In fact\, the first use of the concept in a penal sense came three decades before\, in the Allies’ May 24\, 1915 Note to the Ottoman government regarding the Armenian genocide. This presentation will  examine three stages of the emergence of this concept: first\, the 19th-century precedents of the concept of “crimes against humanity”\; second\, the negotiations and drafting of the Allies’ 1915 note and debates around the use of the term “crimes against humanity” (a note initiated and drafted by the Russian government\, which also introduced this key term to the note)\; and\, finally\, the fate of the concept in the interwar years\, leading up to the Nuremberg Trials in 1945-46. In particular\, the presentation will trace the remarkable and overlooked role of imperial Russia in the development and usage of this concept.\n\nPeter Holquist received his Ph.D. with distinction from Columbia University in 1995. Prior to joining Penn’s History Department as associate professor in Fall 2006\, he taught for nine years at Cornell University. Holquist’s teaching and research focus on the history of Russia and modern Europe. He is the author of Making War\, Forging Revolution: Russia’s Continuum of Crisis\, 1914-1921 (Harvard\, 2002). He is also founder and editor of the journal Kritika: Explorations in Russian and Eurasian History and serves as editor for the Kritika Historical Studies. He has published articles on Russia”˜s experience in the First World War and Russian Revolution\, questions of continuity and change from the imperial period into the Stalin era\, and other topics. Holquist’s current project\, \"By Right of War\,\" explores the emergence of the international law of war in the late 19th and early 20th century. The project asks by what means\, and to what degree\, can one bring people’s conduct\, even in extremis\, into line with normative and ethical prescriptions.\n\nWorld War I was a major turning point in world history that brought Europe’s long nineteenth century to a close and ushered in the conflicts of the twentieth century. Beginning in 2014\, the Weiser Center for Europe and Eurasia is sponsoring a series of programs–WWI 1914-2014: Reflecting on the 100th Anniversary of WWI–that examine the many ways that WWI changed Europe’s place in the world.\n\nSponsors: CREES\, ASP\, CES

SUMMARY:Performance:Richard Shindell
DESCRIPTION:Richard Shindell is a New Yorker living in Argentina: a craftsman and a real wizard of song. He's played for coins in the Paris subway\, and he's studied for the priesthood. His gift for profound storytelling songs drew him into the world of folk music. Richard Shindell champions the downtrodden\, exalts the disaffected\, skewers prejudice\, war\, and religious intolerance. He steps into and fully inhabits the various personalities his songs create–some of them female. In the words of No Depression\, \"Shindell tells great stories with an eye for critical detail while never losing sight of the big picture. He works a well-worn stretch of singer-songwriter pavement\, but his wonderfully spiritual lyrical sense and intimate compositions ultimately distinguish him.\" Of his latest release\, \"Not Far Now\,\" the Valley Advocate in Massachusetts writes\, \"This may be the best release of the decade. ”¦ The thinking man's folk singer has just raised the bar.\" \n
