SUMMARY:Exhibition:Exhibit: The International Year of Crystallography
DESCRIPTION:\n\nCrystallography is the branch of science concerned with the structure and properties of crystals. Come and see crystals from the Museum of Natural History\, books from the Library's collection\, and displays of the equipment used at the X-Ray Crystallography Lab.\n\nUNESCO chose 2014 as the International year of Crystallography because it commemorates two important anniversaries in the study of matter: the centennial of X-ray diffraction\, and the 400th anniversary of Kepler’s observation in 1611 of the symmetrical form of ice crystals. Both breakthroughs led to subsequent studies in the role of symmetry in matter and the nature of crystalline material. U-M continues this investigation today.\n

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Illuminations: Painting the Night with Light
DESCRIPTION:When the sun leaves the sky\, Darlene Yeager-Torre gathers flashlights\, camera and tripod and ventures into the night to create luminous landscape photographs by using extremely long exposures (45 seconds to 1 hour). After a career of teaching art\, with degrees from Edgecliff College and Xavier University in Cincinnati\, Ohio\, she began exploring her own artistic vision. A presentation on night photography piqued her curiosity about that genre and sent her on the adventures that now fill her evenings. Despite the difficulty of long exposure photography\, the resulting\, glowing images fuel her creativity and rejuvenate her spirit.

SUMMARY:Class / Instruction:Women's Leadership and Ordination in the Catholic Church
DESCRIPTION:Want to discover women's leadership roles in the Church during the first 1000 years of Christianity? Were women ever ordained deacons? priests? bishops? Why did it take so long for Christian denominations to allow the ordination of women? Why does the Vatican still hold that women cannot be ordained? What can be done about the sexual bigotry practiced by the Vatican and the Catholic Church hierarchy? Do these questions interest you? If so\, and you are over 50\, come and join the discussion. \nInstructor Peggy Clough has 17 years of Catholic education\, including a BS from a Jesuit university and she has researched this topic over the past 5 years. Extensive notes researched from several sources will be provided. \nClass meets Wednesdays\, September 17 - October 29. No class on October 1. \n\nhttps://olli-umich.org/olli/index.php/member/ctlg/viewEventDetails/467

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Exhibition: Amie Siegel: Provenance
DESCRIPTION:Amie Siegel’s Provenance traces in reverse the global trade in furniture from the Indian city of Chandigarh. Conceived in the 1950s by architects Le Corbusier and Pierre Jeanneret\, Chandigarh’s controversial modernist architecture includes original pieces of furniture created specifically for the building’s interiors. Recently these pieces have appeared at auction houses around the world\, commanding record prices. Starting with Chandigarh furniture in the present\, the film begins in New York apartments\, London townhouses\, Belgian villas\, and Paris salons of avid collectors. From there\, it moves backward to the furniture’s sale at auction\, preview exhibitions\, and photography for auction catalogues\, to restoration\, cargo shipping containers\, and Indian ports—ending finally in Chandigarh\, a city in a state of entropy.  \n\n On October 19\, 2013\, Siegel auctioned Provenance at Christie’s in London\, turning the film into another object at auction\, inseparable from the market it depicts. Lot 248\, a second film\, captures the auction of Provenance\, becoming a mirror of the first\, repeating and completing the circuit of design and art that define speculative markets.\n\nAmie Siegel was born in 1974 in Chicago. Her work has been exhibited internationally at MoMA/PS1\, Walker Art Center\, Hayward Gallery\, Whitney Museum of American Art\, KW Berlin\, ICA Boston\, and the Kunstmuseum Stuttgart. Screenings include Cannes Film Festival\, Berlin Film Festival\, New York Film Festival\, The Museum of Modern Art\, The National Gallery of Art\, and the Harvard Film Archive\, among many other museums and cinematheques. She has been a fellow of the DAAD Berliner Künstlerprogramm\, the Guggenheim Foundation\, and The Film Study Center at Harvard University\, as well as a recipient of the ICA Bostonʼs Foster Prize and\, most recently\, a Sundance Institute Film Fund award for Provenance.\n\nLead support for this exhibition is provided by the Herbert W. and Susan L. Johe Endowment. Additional generous support is provided by the University of Michigan Penny W. Stamps School of Art & Design\, Taubman College of Architecture + Urban Planning\, and Institute for the Humanities.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Exhibition: Artistic Impositions in the Photographic Portrait
DESCRIPTION:Susan Sontag claimed that photographs “owe their existence to a loose cooperation (quasi-magical\, quasi-accidental) between photographer and subject.” Any photographic portrait marks an encounter between the person executing the image and the person posing for it. The sixteen photographs included in this exhibition speak to an especially charged collaboration between photographer and model in that they are all portraits of artists.\n\nWhen a photographer is faced with a subject who is so thoroughly invested in artistic representation\, how might this impact his or her own photographic aesthetic? In this suite of remarkable photographs\, we witness different manifestations of this phenomenon at work. For example\, we see results ranging from the surreal to the seemingly straightforward through encounters between Salvador Dalí and Philippe Halsman\; Frida Kahlo and Manuel Álvarez Bravo\; and Georgia O’Keeffe and Ansel Adams. In other cases the photographer intentionally frames the photographic subject alongside the artist’s own work of art so that they become compelling participants in their own painted or sculptural compositions.\n\nThis exhibition invites viewers to consider how the difficult task of representing another artist is productively accomplished through the collaborative aesthetic resonances discernable between model and photographer in these portraits.     \n\nLead support for this exhibition is provided by the University of Michigan Health System.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Exhibition: Paramodel
DESCRIPTION:This exhibition will present Paramodel\, an art collaborative established by two contemporary Japanese artists\, Yasuhiko Hayashi (born 1971) and Yûsuke Nakano (born 1976)\, in Osaka in 2001. Paramodel works in a variety of media\, including painting\, sculpture\, video\, and photography\, often combining pieces in site-specific installations that seek to construct a parallel world of “play” intersecting with the real world. For UMMA’s exhibition\, Paramodel will create a new installation derived from their most famous series\, paramodelic-graffiti. In a mesmerizing network of blue-colored model railroads that fill flat surfaces in and beyond the gallery\, the installation will transgress the boundaries of space\, media\, and art production\, collapsing the distinction between gallery and street\; between two-dimensional drawing and three-dimensional object\; and between creator and spectator. The exhibition will create an experience for visitors full of what the team calls “paradoxes.”\n\nThough they’ve shown extensively in Asia and Europe over the past ten years\, this marks Paramodel’s first solo exhibition of work in the United States.\n\nLead support for this exhibition is provided by the University of Michigan Office of the President\, Office of the Provost\, and Center for Japanese Studies\, the Japan Foundation\, and the E. Rhodes and Leona B. Carpenter Foundation. Additional generous support is provided by the University of Michigan Credit Union and the Herbert W. and Susan L. Johe Endowment.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:Globalized Local Sounds
DESCRIPTION:“World music”\, which appeared in the West in the 1980s as a marketing/classificatory device of the music industry\, usually refers to non-Western music or fusion of Western and non-Western music. The all-inclusive concept becomes even more ambiguous when it is adopted into the Chinese language. However\, more and more Chinese musicians are making use of the term to promote their music to a wider audience\, both nationally and internationally. Ethnic minority musicians find this new market of “world music” useful to sell their marginalized music. Han Chinese musicians are also inspired by “world music” to draw from their traditions and mix it with other music languages. For the Shanghai government\, “world music” is in accordance with its imaging of the city’s position as an international metropolis. Thus it sponsored the World Music Shanghai\, China’s first world music festival\, as one of the events to celebrate the 2010 Shanghai World Expo. A number of other world music festivals have been born in China since then\, often with the sponsorship of real estate companies\, who do so to promote their brands. What does “world music” mean in the Chinese context?\n\nMr. Mu Qian is a Chinese performing arts curator\, ethnomusicologist\, and writer. He received his M.A. in Ethnomusicology from the China Conservatory in 2005\, and B.A. in English Language and Literature from Nanjing University in 1997.Mu has served as Music Director of World Music Shanghai and MOMA Post Mountain Music-Art Festival in Beijing\, two festivals dedicated to introducing music from around the world to the Chinese audience as well as presenting Chinese music with a global perspective. Mu has recently received a fellowship of the Asian Cultural Council to do research on world music and observe arts administration practices in Washington D.C. and New York from March to October 2014.

SUMMARY:Performance:Comas
DESCRIPTION:Comas came together as a band in March of 2003. Its members came from different part of the globe\, bringing together their many cultural influences to forge a unique blend of traditional Irish music that literally had them\, months after they formed\, playing in major festivals in Ireland\, Belgium\, France\, England\, Denmark\, and Holland. When you hear Comas you'll know that their choice of name was no accident: it translates from Irish Gaelic as \"Power\,\" and power is exactly what this band is about. It describes their own driving power coupled with a fine sensitivity for the inner strands of magic that is inherent in Irish music. Comas is a band firmly rooted in Irish music\, but with enough space to allow for original compositions. Their openness to new influences and a respectful eye on the past bring Comas to the forefront of what traditional music is about today. Comas comes to Michigan with a new release\, the aptly named \"Charge!\"
