SUMMARY:Exhibition:Gifts of Art presents Panoramic Delights of Leelanau: Color Photography
DESCRIPTION:Having raised his two children near the Sleeping Bear Dunes National Lakeshore\, Ken Scott has found much inspiration there. A self-taught photographer\, he started out with a 35mm camera\, heavy tripod\, either a 24 or 105 mm lens\, and a slow slide film (ASA 50). He is now climbing the digital ladder! Scott’s photography is the result of 20+ years of \"lots of patience\, recognizing the right place at the right time\, but not necessarily for the intended image”¦\" He shoots photographs around Leelanau County\, Michigan and stitches multiple images together to create vistas beyond what a single image can show.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Exhibition: Changing Hands: Art Without Reservation 3 / Contemporary Native North American Art from the Northeast and Southeast
DESCRIPTION:Changing Hands: Art Without Reservation 3 explores the work of contemporary artists of Native North American origin working in both traditional and new media\, acknowledging their long and diverse cultural legacies while overtly and simultaneously exploring\, and often confronting\, the many ongoing issues inherent to their cultural heritage.\n\nThis exhibition is the culmination of a decade-long investigation and exploration into fine art created by Indigenous artists from North America\, defined by their regional origins. This concluding exhibition of the three-part series presents new work by Native American\, First Nations\, Métis\, and Inuit artists and designers from the Northeastern and Southeastern regions of the United States and Canada. Curated by Ellen Taubman\, this Changing Hands presentation is the third in a series of exhibitions organized by the Museum of Arts and Design in New York.\n\nChanging Hands: Art Without Reservation 3 / Contemporary Native North American Art from the Northeast and Southeast was organized by the Museum of Arts and Design\, New York\, and made possible by the National Endowment for the Arts.

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:Performance:Playing for Change
DESCRIPTION:Maybe you've seen the \"Stand By Me\" video on YouTube (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Us-TVg40ExM )–it's been viewed about 60 million times. It has quite a story behind it! Grammy-winning producer/engineer/filmmaker Mark Johnson founded Playing For Change on the simple idea that the world can be connected through music. Starting in Santa Monica\, California\, Mark captured a performance of “Stand By Me” by legendary street blues singer Roger Ridley\, then he took the show on the road. In New Orleans\, he put headphones on Grandpa Elliott\, who harmonized with Ridley’s soulful rendition of the song. And he didn’t stop there. Using innovative mobile technology and traveling the world\, they filmed and recorded more than 100 musicians\, largely outdoors\, in parks\, plazas and promenades\, in doorways\, on cobblestone streets and amid hilly pueblos. Each captured performance created a new mix in which essentially the artists are all performing together\, even though they're hundreds or thousands of miles apart. The Playing for Change has continued and evolved through worldwide concert tours musicians from around the globe\, many of whom have appeared in the project's videos. The PFC Band has performed on NBC’s The Tonight Show\, and the two-disc CD/DVD set \"Playing for Change: Songs Around the World\" has reached the top ten on Billboard magazine's pop chart. The project’s deep emotional resonance\, combined with the muscle of the Internet and sheer word-of-mouth\, has struck a profoundly enduring chord worldwide. Playing for Change is a musical story of hope\, joy\, and redemption. The Playing for Change organization has just released its third album\, \"A Better Place.\"\n
