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:Other:Gifts of Art presents Bird Pants & Other Formal Forest Wear
DESCRIPTION:Missy Orge creates work that is evocative of scientific curiosities and mounted butterflies\, with a humor that sneaks up and inspires a closer look. Her current work focuses on birdpants and formal wear of the forest – tiny pants for birds and frogs\, and dapper suits for squirrels that “could be for backyard visitors who are fashion-forward or simply chilly in the Michigan winter.” She employs traditional craftwork such as quilting\, embroidery and beading to produce her highly detailed – and decidedly nontraditional – confections. Making Ann Arbor her home for more than 20 years\, she spends her spare time filling bird feeders in the hope that\, one day\, she can talk a songbird into modeling her creations.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Gifts of Art presents Changing Light: Digital Photography by
DESCRIPTION:After a forty-year career as a clinical psychologist\, Lansing\, Michigan artist Arnold Berkman retired in order to pursue a career as a fine arts photographer. Berkman's photography has a painterly quality due to his use of light. True to the definition of photography\, he sees his work as writing\, drawing or painting with light\, transforming the elements of subject\, color and shape into compositions.

SUMMARY:Conference / Symposium:A Symposium: Understanding the Neoliberal State
DESCRIPTION:In recent years\, a great deal of academic research has focused on the negative effects of neo-liberalism and neo-liberal economic policies. Such scholarship often presumes the retreat or decline of the state. “Neo-liberalism” in this context often takes on a deterministic and ghostly character – acting as a primary agent that reshapes socio-economic and cultural practices and permeates all forms of political life. However\, research in comparative and historical contexts provides a more complex picture of the nature and causes of inequality. States\, while restructured in varying ways\, continue to play a central role in shaping the causes and responses to inequality. The nature of state formation affects processes of economic restructuring. Social movements that respond to various forms of inequality are immersed in complicated political dynamics with both the state and transnational and national capitalist actors. The objective of this symposium is to move beyond surface invocations of “neoliberalism” and provide an in-depth working group on the nature and practices of the post-liberalization state from historical\, comparative and transnational perspectives.\n\nSymposium Schedule\n\n9:15-9:30AM Introductory Remarks\n\nLeela Fernandes\, Women’s Studies and Political Science\, University of Michigan\, “Myths of the Vanishing Neoliberal State”\n\n9:30-11:30AM Panel 1: Restructuring the State\, Civil Society and Public Life\n\nLamia Karim\, Anthropology\, University of Oregon\,  “Unsilenced State\, Silenced NGOs: The State and the Grameen Bank in Neoliberal Bangladesh”\n\nUjju Aggarwal\, Institute for Urban Policy and Research Analysis\, University of Texas\, Austin\, “The Politics of Choice: Race\, Class\, Gender and the Structuring of Citizenship Post-Brown Vs.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Vietnamerica: Pop-Up Exhibition by GB Tran
DESCRIPTION:We are thrilled to introduce our exciting new Pop-Up exhibition series in the Osterman Common Room (#1022) featuring short (approx. 2 weeks) exhibitions of innovative\, thought-provoking work by artists from around the country. The first\, Vietnamerica\, is an exhibition of images from the author's graphic memoir of the same name\, a visually stunning portrait of survival\, escape\, and reinvention\, and of the fit of the American immigrants' dream\, passed on from immigrants to their children. In tellin his family story\, Tran finds his own place in this sage of hardship and heroism.\n\nAbout GB Tran and Vietnamerica: GB Tran is a young Vietnamese American artist who grew up distant from (and largely indifferent to) his family’s history. Born and raised in South Carolina as a son of immigrants\, he knew that his parents had fled Vietnam during the fall of Saigon. But even as they struggled to adapt to life in America\, they preferred to forget the past—and to focus on their children’s future. It was only in his late twenties that GB began to learn their extraordinary story. When his last surviving grandparents die within months of each other\, GB visits Vietnam for the first time and begins to learn the tragic history of his family\, and of the homeland they left behind.

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: Fred Tomaselli: The Times
DESCRIPTION:Even in our digital age of constant information\, the rhythmic cycle of the daily newspaper is still a central form of organizing the world around us. The paper’s front page records in the present tense what will eventually become history. It orients our attention to pressing actions\, be they individual\, political\, or natural\, that over time repeat and rearrange into patterns around common human motivations. Fred Tomaselli‘s The Times traffics in these patterns\, reflecting and reinventing them through complexly layered collages superimposed on recent cover stories in The New York Times. The collages surface unseen connections\, rearrange realities\, and reveal relationships of images and ideas across time and space.\n\nTomaselli uses images within the familiar grid of the front page as portals\, overwriting and manipulating the supposed objective reality of the newspaper with his completely subjective surreality. His interventions play against the detachment of journalistic forms\, inserting emotion\, fantasy\, and absurdity to counterpoint or underscore the original narrative. Tomaselli says these works “freeze time\,” trapping inherently ephemeral events and images like flies in amber. But in aggregate this act also reimagines time\, linking images and actions of a chosen day to their counterparts in the past and in some projected future.\n\nThe Times grew from Tomaselli’s own doodlings of personal commentary while reading\, eventually spurring him to marry his “news junkie” habit with his studio practice. The series runs the gamut from hard-edged abstraction to hallucinatory pattern play\, and engages in a dialogue with art historical imagery and themes\, refracted through present-day news images.\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 Department of American Culture\, Department of the History of Art\, Institute for the Humanities\, and Penny W. Stamps School of Art & Design.

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:Exhibition:Exhibition: Reductive Minimalism: Women Artists in Dialogue\, 1960–2014
DESCRIPTION:Nearly fifty years after its heyday\, Minimalism is enjoying a resurgence of critical attention\, though much of the focus continues to be on male artists or on a small number of women sculptors. Reductive Minimalism: Women Artists in Dialogue\, 1960-2014 offers a fresh perspective on the movement and its evolution\, bringing together formative works from two generations of women Minimalist painters to examine and celebrate the dialogue between them.\n\nMinimalism was born in the late 1950s as a reaction to the perceived hubris and theatricality of Abstract Expressionism. But though its most prominent\, mostly male\, practitioners favored an aesthetic of clean geometry and essential forms\, the hubris remained—in oversized works with grandiose themes. Women Minimalist painters\, however\, took a more restrained or reductive approach\, one more intimate in scale\, more personal in narrative\, and more open-ended in its experimentation with pure surface\, color\, and texture.\n\nMany of these women—Agnes Martin and Mary Corse among them—worked outside the New York art world and outside the critical discourse that would have offered them support and recognition. Gender politics\, though not necessarily the impetus for their work\, played a role in the circumstances of where and how they practiced. In spite of their relative isolation\, their work had a profound influence on the current generation of women minimalist painters—including Tauba Auerbach and R.H. Quaytman—who have global exposure and who are celebrated in a varied and robust critical environment. In the gallery\, Reductive Minimalism traces the conversation between these two generations in an installation of nine pairs of paintings\, to reveal the call-and-response of their artistic symbiosis.\n\nLead support for this exhibition is provided by the University of Michigan Office of the Provost\, the University of Michigan Health System\, and the Richard and Rosann Noel Endowment Fund. Additional generous support is provided by the Susan and Richard Gutow Fund\, Elaine Pitt\, the University of Michigan CEW Frances and Sydney Lewis Visiting Leaders Fund\, Department of the History of Art\, the Katherine Tuck Enrichment Fund\, and the Doris Sloan Memorial Fund.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:CSAS Scholarly Lecture Series
DESCRIPTION:Speaker: Daisy Rockwell\, writer and artist\n\nDaisy Rockwell paints under the takhallus\, or alias\, Lapata (pronounced ‘laapataa’)\, which is Urdu for “missing\,” or “absconded\,” as in “my luggage is missing\,” or “the bandits have absconded.” She posts her paintings regularly to Flickr\, and writes for the blog Chapati Mystery. She has shown her work in San Francisco\, Los Angeles\, Philadelphia\, Washington\, DC\, Waterloo\, Ontario\, and Lenox and North Adams\, Massachusetts. Her essays on literature and art have appeared in Bookslut\, Caravan and The Sunday Guardian (New Delhi).\n\nRockwell grew up in a family of artists in western Massachusetts\, some whose work adorns the surfaces of chinaware and brightens up the waiting rooms of dentists’ offices\, and others whose artistic output has found more select audiences. From 1992-2006\, Lapata made a detour into Academia\, from which she emerged with a PhD in South Asian literature\, a book on the Hindi author Upendranath Ashk and a mild case of depression.\n\nRockwell has written The Little Book of Terror\, a volume of paintings and essays on the Global War on Terror (Foxhead Books\, 2012)\, and her collection of translations of stories by Ashk\, Hats and Doctors\, was published in 2013 by Penguin India. Her novel Taste was published by Foxhead Books in December 2013.\n\nCosponsored by the Department of Comparative Literature.

SUMMARY:Performance:Dance Master Class Repertory Series: Carol Teitelbaum
DESCRIPTION:U-M alumnus Carol Teitelbaum\, a Guild-Certified Feldenkrais Practitioner(CM)\, has over twenty five years of experience as a movement educator.  A former member of the Merce Cunningham Dance Company\, Ms. Teitelbaum was the faculty chair of the Merce Cunningham School from 1998 until its closing in March of 2012.  In addition to teaching technique classes and repertory workshops\, she has staged many Cunningham dances for a variety of dance companies and schools\, ranging from revivals for the Merce Cunningham Dance Company to projects with the Ballet de Lorraine\, State University of New York at Purchase College\, Barnard College\, Conservatoire de Paris\, and Stanford University. Many years of working closely with dancers gives Ms. Teitelbaum a keen understanding of the physical demands of dance and a familiarity with the common solutions to these challenges\, many of which impede performance or lead to injury. The Feldenkrais Method® of somatic education provides her with both a framework and a means to work more deeply with both dancers and non-dancers to find greater choice in selecting easier and more effective movement patterns. The effects of this improved attunement can be far reaching artistically and personally\, as well as physically. Ms. Teitelbaum is a graduate of the New York Feldenkrais Training Program.  In addition to her private clientele\, she is currently working at the Field Center for Children's Integrated Development\, an organization devoted to working with special-needs children\, established by Sheryl Field\, noted Feldenkrais Practitioner and teacher. Ms. Teitelbam holds an M.F.A from U-M.    Class for students runs from 12:10-2 PM. Public welcome to observe the class.     Each session features a different guest artist who teaches a master class and sections from their repertory—this panorama of the contemporary dance field is presented to broaden the student’s awareness of what career possibilities are out there. The guest artist conducts a 30-minute technique class/warm-up and then teaches repertory that is performed by the class.     In the final 15-20 minutes faculty coordinator Bill De Young conducts a Q and A interviewing each guest artist about their career and what recommendations they have about the transition from student to professional and what they look for when they audition dancers for their projects.

SUMMARY:Presentation:A manuscript present:  Translation and remediation in the early middle ages.
DESCRIPTION:We like to think of ourselves as the digital age. We are fast\, we are mobile. When the digital age looks back at the Middle Ages\, here are the two images we’re most likely to imagine: the monk bent over his parchment\, and the book chained to the desk. Physical labor and absolute immobility: the very opposite of the hands-free mobility with which we flatter ourselves.  I won’t dispute the physicality—in fact\, I’m going to praise it—but immobility? That’s another story. Early medieval books did in fact move\; in fact\, the very idea of ideas in movement—translation broadly understood—is central to the stories many of these books tell about themselves. Early medieval bookishness is a world of intense and material mobility and linguistic flux that deepens our modern understandings of “translation.” \n_________________________________________

SUMMARY:Performance:Lou & Peter Berryman
DESCRIPTION:Lou and Peter Berryman are musical humorists who have delighted nationwide audiences for more than 30 years. Frequent comparisons to Tom Lehrer (who said\, \"I love your material\, and if I were still performing\, I'd steal it\")\, Flanders and Swann\, and Burns and Allen notwithstanding\, these two are originals\, blending Midwestern culture with intelligent observation in a whimsical and wonderfully accessible performance. They have produced a dozen albums and three songbooks of their original and hilarious\, quirky\, yet oddly profound music\, and they've toured the U.S. and Canada to rave reviews. Lou and Peter Berryman songs are being sung around the world\, by a legion of professional musicians including Garrison Keillor\, as well as shower singers everywhere. The pair began their musical partnership in high school in Appleton\, Wisconsin\, and their friendship survived a brief marriage before maturing into a durable creative collaboration.
