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:Workshop / Seminar:Application of Hierarchical Linear Models
DESCRIPTION:This workshop teaches the concepts and analysis of multilevel data through multilevel models (also known as hierarchical linear models or mixed models). With understanding of basic linear regression concepts as a prerequisite\, the instructors will cover a wide range of topics including clustered data\, longitudinal studies\, and clustered longitudinal data. Participants will be introduced to the use of HLM 7.0 software. The workshop will consist of lively lectures and hands-on examples using HLM software.Many studies in social sciences (e.g.\, education\, human development\, public health\, sociology) are multilevel\, longitudinal\, or both. Multilevel data arise when participants are clustered within social settings. The variation and covariation within and between such settings are often of interest substantively and should not be ignored when assessing relationships between explanatory variables and outcomes. In longitudinal research\, we repeatedly observe subjects. These repeated measures for each participant will be correlated and explanatory variables may be time-varying or time-invariant. This workshop will consider the issues of analysis that arise in multilevel and longitudinal research settings.\n\nWe will first consider two-level cross-sectional studies in which persons (level-1) are nested within groups (level-2). The level-1 model specifies a process within each group\, and the level-2 model explains how these processes are different between groups. Next\, we will discuss two-level studies of individual growth and compare the structures of these studies to multilevel studies. We will also consider three-level models. We will focus on the case in which repeated measures (level-1) are nested within persons (level-2) who are themselves nested in organizations (level-3).\n\nAll of these studies will involve nearly continuous outcomes for which the normality distribution is at least plausible. They will also feature purely nested designs (e.g.\, persons nested within organizations). The workshop will provide participants with an overview of other types of applications where hierarchical linear models or generalized hierarchical linear models are appropriate (e.g.\, binary outcomes)\, and briefly discuss how the HLM software could be used to model such data.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Three Michigan Architects: Part 2–Robert Metcalf
DESCRIPTION:Robert Metcalf’s domestic and commercial buildings represent some of the most important and recognizable modern architecture in Michigan. Born in 1923\, Metcalf is a native of Ohio. He began his education at the University of Michigan in 1941 but his studies were halted during World War II. After serving in Europe\, Metcalf returned to Ann Arbor and finished his degree in 1950. Upon graduation\, he worked as an apprentice to George B. Brigham and began teaching Architecture at the University of Michigan. Metcalf began his own practice in 1953 and completed over 120 projects Ann Arbor and the Detroit Metro area. \nThis exhibition presents 13 domestic projects that span his six-decade-long career from 1953-2008\, highlighting his straightforward design aesthetic\, featuring many of his iconic flat-roofed houses. Each project selected exemplifies Metcalf’s mid-century modern architectural vocabulary that results in functional\, minimalist spaces for living.\n\nThis exhibition presents 13 domestic projects that span his six-decade-long career from 1953-2008\, highlighting his straightforward design aesthetic\, featuring many of his iconic flat-roofed houses. Each project selected exemplifies Metcalf’s mid-century modern architectural vocabulary that results in functional\, minimalist spaces for living.\n\nThree Michigan Architects: Part 2–Metcalf is the second in a series of three consecutive exhibitions\, with subsequent presentation of domestic work by George Brigham (July 19–October 12\, 2014). Part 1 of the series presented the work of David Osler (December 21\, 2013–March 30\, 2013). The series will culminate in Fall 2014 with a symposium\, as well as the publication of Three Michigan Architects: Osler\, Metcalf\, and Brigham–both of which will explore the importance of this circle of Ann Arbor-based architects\, situating their regional body of domestic work into the larger context of modern architecture in the U.S. that developed on the East Coast and West Coast from the 1930s–1980s.\n

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:2014 Marc and Constance Jacobson Lecture Behind the Beautiful Forevers: An Evening with Katherine Boo
DESCRIPTION:Katherine Boo\, staff writer at The New Yorker and a former reporter and editor for The Washington Post\, will talk about her book Behind the Beautiful Forevers: Life\, Death\, and Hope in a Mumbai Undercity. The lecture will be followed by a reception and book signing in the UMMA Forum.\n\nAbout the book: In this brilliant\, breathtaking book by Pulitzer Prize-winner Katherine Boo\, a bewildering age of global change and inequality is made human through the dramatic story of families striving toward a better life in Annawadi\, a makeshift settlement in the shadow of luxury hotels near the Mumbai airport. As India starts to prosper\, the residents of Annawadi are electric with hope. Abdul\, an enterprising teenager\, sees “a fortune beyond counting” in the recyclable garbage that richer people throw away. Meanwhile Asha\, a woman of formidable ambition\, has identified a shadier route to the middle class. With a little luck\, her beautiful daughter\, Annawadi’s “most-everything girl\,” might become its first female college graduate. And even the poorest children\, like the young thief Kalu\, feel themselves inching closer to their dreams. But then Abdul is falsely accused in a shocking tragedy\; terror and global recession rock the city\; and suppressed tensions over religion\, caste\, sex\, power\, and economic envy turn brutal. With intelligence\, humor\, and deep insight into what connects people to one another in an era of tumultuous change\, Behind the Beautiful Forevers\, based on years of uncompromising reporting\, carries the reader headlong into one of the twenty-first century’s hidden worlds–and into the hearts of families impossible to forget.\n\nPresented by the Institute for the Humanities and LSA Theme Semester: India in the World with support from the Zell Visiting Writers Series\, Institute for Research on Women and Gender\, and the Center for South Asian Studies.\n\n

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:MCubed Guest Speaker: Professor Adrian Forty
DESCRIPTION:Every history of twentieth century architecture repeats the mantra that without concrete\, modern architecture would not have happened\, that 'modern architecture was born under the sign of reinforced concrete'. But what makes reinforced concrete 'modern'? As a medium\, it is as much un-modern as it is modern. Why were architects throughout the twentieth century so determined to promote the modernity of concrete? And what have the consequences of this fixation been - for architecture\, and for concrete?\n\nAdrian Forty is a distinguished scholar of architecture and design at the Bartlett (UCL) in London. His most recent book\, Concrete and Culture\, is a favorite of some of our students. Earlier books have been tremendously influential\, especially Words and Buildings and Objects of Desire. Adrian is also a major figure in the EAHN (European Architectural History Network).\n\nWith Steven Mankouche\, Prof. Ratté and Prof. Terrenato our research grant: \"Architectural Revolutions from the Roman Empire to the Digital Age\" undertakes an interdisciplinary investigation of the relationship between architecture and technology\, focusing on architectural \"revolutions\" sparked by innovations in technology. The project embraces a comparative historical perspective\, taking the \"Roman architectural revolution\" (the development of structural concrete) and modern developments in digital design and digital fabrication as starting points.

SUMMARY:Other:Dougie MacLean
DESCRIPTION:Singer\, songwriter and fiddler Dougie MacLean\, OBE\, is a Celtic institution. His composition \"Caledonia\" has been called an alternative anthem of Scotland\, and it's a glorious\, bittersweet piece of music that gets down to the heart of Scotland's soul. For many years Dougie has been at the forefront of the development of Scottish music and song. But he's an artist of international repute as well\, with a rabid American fan base that fills houses wherever he goes\, and collaborations with country star Kathy Mattea (and even Jennifer Lopez) to his credit. A performer with a gift for making something universal of his own experiences and of the sheer beauty of his native land\, Dougie MacLean has been called \"Scotland's greatest living songwriter\" by Celtic World. Come by and congratulate him on the Lifetime Achievement Award he just received at the BBC Folk Awards!\n
