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. Appreciating that a photograph captures a fleeting moment in time\, he uses light to create emotional moods and bring his images to life.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Diary of a Teenage Girl: Pop-Up Exhibition by Phoebe Gloeckner
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. This\, our second Pop-Up of the semester\, features artwork from the graphic novel Diary of a Teenage Girl: An Account in Words and Pictures by U-M's Phoebe Gloeckner.\n\nAbout Diary of a Teenage Girl:\n\nSo begins the wrenching diary of Minnie Goetze\, a fifteen-year-old girl longing for love and acceptance and struggling with her own precocious sexuality. Minnie hates school and she wants to be an artist\, or maybe a speleologist\, or a bartender. She sleeps with her mother's boyfriend\, and yet is too shy to talk with boys at school. She forges her way through adolescence\, unsupervised and unguided\, defenseless\, and yet fearless.\n\nThe story unfolds in the libertine atmosphere of the 1970s San Francisco\, but the significance of Minnie's effort to understand herself and her world is universal. This is the story of an adolescent troubled by the discontinuity between what she thinks and feels and what she observes in those around her. The Diary of a Teenage Girl offers a searing comment on adult society as seen though the eyes of a young woman on the verge of joining it.\n\nIn this unusual novel\, artist and writer Phoebe Gloeckner presents a pivotal year in a girl's life\, recounted in diary pages and illustrations\, with full narrative sequences in comics form.\n\nPhoebe Gloeckner is a graphic novelist. Her book\, The Diary of a Teenage Girl (2002)\, was praised as \"one of the most brutally honest\, shocking\, tender\, beautiful portrayals of growing up female in America.\" Cartoonist R. Crumb called her story\, Minnie’s Third Love (published in A Child’s Life and Other Stories) one of the “comicbook masterpieces of all time.”\n\nHer books have been published in multiple languages and her artwork has been exhibited in galleries and museums across the United States and Europe.\n\nIn 2008\, Gloeckner was awarded the Guggenheim Fellowship to continue work on an on-going project centering on the life of the family of a murdered teenager living in Ciudad Juárez\, several hundred feet from the US-Mexico border. Throughout and preceeding the escalation and gradual recession of the current period of intense violence in the city (3\,200+ homicides in 2010)\, Gloeckner has been observing the evolution of the family\, the case of their daughter’s murder\, and the neighborhood they live in. The end product of this process will be several novels.\n\nGloeckner has long experimented with the form of the novel- Diary is a hybrid of prose and graphic novel\, and her current projects will incorporate various media (audio\, motion\, and static) with text. The challenge is to create an electronic “multi-touch” book offering a “seamless” reading experience\, a work that feels to be of one piece (the whole\, greater than the sum of its parts) rather than an “enhanced” novel with multi-media annotations and side matter. She is working concurrently on printed versions of these books.

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:Other:Exhibition: Suspended Moments: Photographs from the David S. Rosen Collection
DESCRIPTION:Each of the works in Suspended Moments: Photographs from the David S. Rosen Collection offers insights into an interior world\, most glimpsed from the vantage point of a child or young adult. The exhibition—featuring photographs of children at various stages\, particularly those difficult years that chart the transition from childhood to adulthood—includes images that were clearly very closely related to the research interests of the collector\, Dr. David S. Rosen. Rosen was a physician on the staff of the University of Michigan Medical School\, and a pediatrician with a specialization in adolescent medicine. He was a dedicated collector as well as a practicing photographer. In addition to Rosen’s own photographs of young adults and children\, the exhibition also features the works of other photographers known for their images of childhood\, including Sally Mann\, Dawoud Bey\, and Helen Levitt\, among others. The exhibition\, organized in tribute to Rosen as an educator and artist\, also examines the doctor’s vision as a collector\, in works by landscape and still life photographers such as Ansel Adams\, Michael Kenna\, Howard Bond\, and Billie Mercer.    \n\nLead support for this exhibition is provided by the University of Michigan Health System.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:LRCCS Noon Lecture Series
DESCRIPTION:Speaker: Yang Zhong\, Professor of Political Science\, University of Tennessee\; Distinguished Changjiang Scholar\, School of International and Public Affairs\, Shanghai Jiaotong University\n\nStreet protests have become commonplace in China. Utilizing extensive survey data\, this study attempts to shed light on the nature of environmental street protests in China. The key question to be answered in this talk is why\, facing the same issue\, some people choose the option of participating in street protests while others do not? Our multivariate analytical findings indicate that our urban residents' willingness to participate in street protest over a hypothetical pollution issue in China is significantly related to their attitudes toward institutions in China. What motivates people to participate in street protests has a lot to do with their trust and support of the political system in China and their perceived government transparency. In other words\, these protests are not just what Lewis Coser calls \"realistic conflicts\" which primarily involve specific issues and solutions. One implication from our study is that street protests in China may not be as benign and non-regime threatening as some scholars think.\n\nDr. Yang Zhong is a Distinguished Changjiang Scholar at the School of International and Public Affairs in Shanghai Jiaotong University and tenured Professor in the Department of Political Science at the University of Tennessee\, Knoxville. His main research and teaching interests include Chinese political culture and participation and Chinese local government. He has published over 30 scholarly articles and book chapters\, authored two books and co-edited several books. His articles have appeared in journals such as Comparative Political Studies\, the Journal of Politics\, Political Research Quarterly\, Asian Survey\, Communist and Post-Communist Studies\, Journal of Contemporary China\, and PS: Political Science and Politics. His latest book is Political Culture and Participation in Rural China. Dr. Zhong has served in a number of academic and administrative positions. He was Associate Head of the Department of Political Science\, Director of Asian Studies\, Director of the Tennessee in China Initiative\, and Director of the Center for International Education\, all at the University of Tennessee.

DESCRIPTION:What role(s) does the simple act of line-drying clothes play in various forms of art? Why do artists and photographers love to capture images of laundry on lines? What is it about hanging laundry out to dry that sets minds free to create in wonderful ways? Anne Lawrence's clothesline archives will provide the material for conversation and discussion. This class for those over 50 will explore the metaphoric role of this quotidian task on the visual and performing arts. Anne has been a clothesline historian and hobbyist for 20 years.\n\nhttps://olli-umich.org/olli/index.php/member/ctlg/viewEventDetails/446

SUMMARY:Performance:Ryan Bingham
DESCRIPTION:Ryan Bingham is an Oscar-winning singer/songwriter\, born in New Mexico but raised all across the Southwestern United States. Bingham set out on his own at a young age\, shuffling from town to town and performing gigs at local no-frills bars. It’s this spirit of having done plenty of living early on\, that has informed the singer- songwriters world-weary and jagged\, weather-beaten vocals. \n\nBingham’s critically acclaimed debut album Mescalito (2007\, Lost Highway Records/UMG) won kudos from media outlets as varied as Rolling Stone\, Esquire and The Washington Post. His sophomore effort Roadhouse Sun (2008\, Lost Highway Records/UMG) then solidified his reputation as a serious artist. \n\nIn 2010 Bingham’s song “The Weary Kind” for the Crazy Heart Soundtrack earned him a Grammy\, Oscar\, Golden Globe and Americana Artist of the Year Award. The song also led to his collaboration with T Bone Burnett\, who produced his third studio album Junky Star (2010\, Lost Highway Records/UMG.) Junky Star received rave reviews from critics and fans alike\, saying “Ryan Bingham’s songs will still be around long after the Oscar Glow is gone. This dude is writing for the ages.” “The most authentic-sounding troubadour in ages.” “Another strong collection of tough\, dark Americana ballads.”\n\nIn early 2012\, Bingham decided to move on from Lost Highway Records/UMG to start his own Axster Bingham Records with wife Anna Axster. Together with co-producer Justin Stanley (Eric Clapton\, Sheryl Crow)\, Bingham recorded his fourth studio album Tomorrowland at a makeshift studio in a friend’s empty house in Malibu\, Calif. Tomorrowland contains plenty of the pliant acoustic guitar work that has marked Bingham’s previous studio sets\, but the album expands his musical landscape exponentially\, adding Guitar howls into keyboards and drum stomps against strings\, all bolstered by Bingham’s familiar\, raspy voice. \n\nBingham will be releasing his 5th studio album in early 2015.
