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: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:LRCCS  Noon Lecture Series
DESCRIPTION:Martin Powers\, Sally Michelson Davidson Professor of Chinese Arts and Cultures\, History of Art Department\, University of Michigan\n\nEarly modern English translations of Chinese terms and texts reveal a great deal about what Englishmen did and did not comprehend concerning rule of law as we now understand it. A close analysis of these translations suggests that much of what we learned in our Western Civilization textbooks was more fantasy than fact. Such basic concepts as the distinction between public and private\, or equality before the law\, appear to have been incomprehensible to European and English writers before the mid-eighteenth century. This lecture explains the method of translingual analysis and reviews some of its more interesting results.\n\nMartin Powers is Sally Michelson Davidson Professor of Chinese Arts and Cultures at the University of Michigan\, and former Director of the Center for Chinese Studies. In 1993 his Art and Political Expression in Early China\, Yale University Press\, received the Levenson Prize for the best book in pre-twentieth century Chinese Studies. His Pattern and Person: Ornament\, Society\, and Self in Classical China\, was published by Harvard University Press East Asian Series in 2006 and was awarded the Levenson Prize for 2008. In 2009 he was resident at the Institute for Advanced Study in Princeton writing a book on the role of \"China\" in the cultural politics of the English Enlightenment. Together with Dr. Katherine Tsiang\, he is co-editing the Blackwell Companion to Chinese Art.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:Forsyth Lectureship on Medieval Art: Anthony Cutler\, \"Inhabited Architecture: a Pervasive Motif in Medieval Art and Modern Theory\"
DESCRIPTION:Little scholarly attention is paid to peripheral figures in Late Antique\, Byzantine and Western Medieval larger contexts\, even though they are perennial and raise theoretical questions regarding the way in which they should be read. Their diversity challenges the understanding that they possess a single\, shared significance. How then in the face of this variety should their presence be apprehended?\n\nAnthony Cutler teaches courses in Late Antique\, Early Christian\, and Byzantine art. He also teaches graduate courses on theory\, iconology\, and methods of research. He has taught at Penn State since 1967 and is firmly convinced that the practice of research\, leading to publication\, is an integral part of teaching. The author of numerous books and articles\, he has established himself as an international expert on ivory carving with such works as The Hand of the Master: Craftsmanship\, Ivory\, and Society in Byzantium (Princeton University Press). His most recent book is Byzantium\, Italy and the North: Papers on Cultural Relations (Pindar Press). \n\nThe Forsyth Lectureship on Medieval Art\, established in memory of medievalists George H. Forsyth\, Jr. (Professor of Fine Arts and Director of the Kelsey Museum of Ancient and Medieval Archaeology at the University of Michigan) and William H. Forsyth (Curator\, The Metropolitan Museum of Art)\, is intended to sponsor a lecture by a distinguished scholar of medieval art to be presented at multiple venues.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:Wallenberg Lecture
DESCRIPTION:On September 30\, the 2014 Wallenberg Medal is being awarded to Agnes Heller\, a distinguished philosopher and Holocaust survivor who seeks to understand the nature of ethics and morality in the modern world\, and the social and political systems and institutions within which evil can flourish.\n\nLike Wallenberg\, Professor Heller has demonstrated that courage is the highest expression of civic spirit. She has been witness to regimes that have organized murder\, crushed dissent and persecuted independent voices. In 1944\, as a young woman surviving in Budapest\, she knew the name Wallenberg. She spoke out vigorously for autonomy and self-determination after the suppression of the Hungarian Revolution of 1956. Following the defeat of the 1968 Prague Spring\, she went into exile and became the Hannah Arendt Visiting Professor of Philosophy in the Graduate Studies Program of The New School in New York. She is a highly influential scholar who publishes internationally-acclaimed work on ethics\, aesthetics\, modernity\, and political theory. In 2010\, she was awarded Germany’s Goethe Medal. Since retirement\, Agnes Heller has returned to Budapest. She remains fully engaged in public life\, speaking out against the neo-nationalist and anti-Semitic strains again current in Hungary.\n\nShe will be awarded the medal and will present the Wallenberg Lecture on September 30\, 2014 at 7:30 at the Rackham Graduate School.  \n\nA 1935 graduate of the University of Michigan College of Architecture\, Swedish diplomat Raoul Wallenberg saved the lives of tens of thousands of Hungarian Jews near the end of World War II\, and subsequently vanished into the Soviet Gulag.  The Wallenberg Medal is an award given in his memory and honor. \n\nFor more information regarding programs at U-M that honor Raoul Wallenberg including the Wallenberg lecture\, Wallenberg Fellows and Summer Travel Award recipients\, please visit our website at Wallenberg.umich.edu.
