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: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: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:Chuck Prophet & The Mission Express
DESCRIPTION:For most of his life\, San Francisco has been Chuck Prophet's muse...or more accurately\, his drug of choice. \"It can suck you under. That first hit. It really does a whammy to you. And if you're like me you can find yourself chasing the San Francisco dragon for the rest of your life. That's what the record is about.\" \n\nNamed for the ill-fated rock club of the same name\, Temple Beautiful was \"made in San Francisco\, by San Franciscans about San Francisco.\" Roy Loney\, vocalist and wildman in legendary Bay Area band The Flamin' Groovies contributes guest vocals to the title track.\n\nOne of the driving forces behind cult heroes Green on Red and the influential L.A. Paisley Underground scene in the 1980s\, Prophet's creative mold was actually cast in San Francisco. Recalls Prophet\, \"'Temple Beautiful' is the name of a long-closed rock and roll club which was between Bill Graham's iconic Fillmore Ballroom and the tragic storefront church founded by the Reverend Jim Jones. It's where I saw my first gigs.\" \n\nInspired by current San Francisco artists\, Prophet felt compelled to pay tribute to the history and weirdness that brought him to the city nearly 30 years ago. \"There's a kind of rock and roll psych renaissance going on in this town at the moment with bands like Thee Oh Sees\, Girls\, The Fresh and Onlys\, Kelley Stoltz and Sonny and the Sunset's. I'm very encouraged by all this stuff going on here.\" \n\nPart love letter and part unsentimental tour\, \"Temple Beautiful\" attempts to capture San Francisco in all it's forms: romantic port-of-call\, bohemian utopia\, but even more so\, an often unforgiving pioneer outpost filled with the freaks and characters not welcome in America's heartland. And musically\, there is no doubt that San Francisco is one of the country's most enduring scenes\, home to decade after decade of classic artists and albums. \"Temple Beautiful\" is at once a look back at the inspirations that spawned them and the next installment in its discography. \n\nIn addition to the two amazing albums \"Soap & Water\" and \" ¡Let Freedom Ring!\" over the past several years\, Chuck's music has been heard in hit television series \"True Blood\" (HBO)\, \"Californication\" (Showtime) and \"Sons of Anarchy\" (FX). Prophet also co-wrote all the songs on Alejandro Escovedo's critically acclaimed album \"Real Animal.\"
