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:Lecture / Discussion:MUSIC AND IMAGE IN FILM
DESCRIPTION:Films were never silent.  From the start they spoke to us with music.  When the “talkies” began music remained a significant part of film\, both as background to the action and as part of the story.  The simultaneous occurrence of music and image in movies can create a mental fusion\, a powerful psychological and emotional effect.  This lecture traces the interaction of music and image throughout the history of cinema\, also drawing from this discussion some ideas about the functions of music in the world outside the cinema.\n\nDr. Konigsberg is author of “The Complete Film Dictionary” which was the standard work of its type in film studies and the film industry for many years.\n\nPlease check the OLLI web site for additional lectures in the series \"American Music: How Did We Get Here?\" Thursdays\, October 30 - December 11.

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:John Seely Brown Symposium on Technology and Society: Cory Doctorow
DESCRIPTION:The acclaimed science fiction author\, journalist and blogger Cory Doctorow is the featured speaker at the annual John Seely Brown Symposium on Technology and Society\, sponsored by the School of Information. A book signing and reception will follow the lecture.\n\nAccording to Doctorow\, we are increasingly made of computers (pacemakers\, hearing aids\, prostheses)\, and increasingly inhabiting computers (cars\, planes\, buildings)\, and that's potentially pretty bad news. The model for regulating computers is to insist that they be somehow constrained so that they can't do undesirable things\, but we don't actually know how to do this -- the closest we come is making computers that have supervisory processes that spy on us\, that we can't shut down\, and that every conceivable kind of bad guy could use to come after us.\n\nCory Doctorow (craphound.com) is a science fiction author\, activist\, journalist and blogger - the co-editor of Boing Boing (boingboing.net) and the author of young adult novels like HOMELAND\, PIRATE CINEMA and LITTLE BROTHER and novels for adults like RAPTURE OF THE NERDS and MAKERS.\n\nHe is the former European director of the Electronic Frontier Foundation and co-founded the UK Open Rights Group. He also co-founded the open source peer-to-peer software company OpenCola\, sold to OpenText\, Inc in 2003\, and presently serves on the boards and advisory boards of the Participatory Culture Foundation\, the Clarion Foundation\, The Glenn Gould Foundation\, and the Chabot Space & Science Center's SpaceTime project.\n\nAbout the Symposium: The annual UMSI-sponsored JSB Symposium features thought leaders from the front lines of the digital world sharing their perspectives on the societal implications of new technology. The symposium is made possible through the generous support of its founding donor John Seely Brown.\n\nThe venue is provided by the Ross School of Business.\n\nPhoto credit: jonathanworth.com

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:Demonic Soundscapes
DESCRIPTION:This talk investigates several plays in the Ming court repertoire on the demons Erlang and Nezha\, and explores how sensations of sound\, smell\, and sight define natural communities of demons that are place specific\, and how these same perceptual sensations signal the crossing of boundaries that are meant to segregate demons and grant them territorial autonomy. The processes of quelling of these aggressive demons have a historical lineage in folk myth and local cults\, and the plays reflect the ways in which the Chinese state controlled local cults by incorporating them into state-sanctioned religious ritual\, and appropriating their local power for state interests. \n\nStephen West is a Foundation Professor of Chinese at Arizona State University and professor emeritus in the Department of East Asian Languages and Cultures at the University of California\, Berkeley. His original research interests are in Chinese performance literature and cultural history of the 11th-14th century. While these may not seem particularly “global” in nature\, in fact many of the features considered to be marks of modernity appear in Chinese society at this time as features of a society undergoing rapid urbanization\, an explosion of print media\, and a rapid change in the nature of its governing class. His work has centered on texts from popular culture.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:EEB Thursday Seminar Series
DESCRIPTION:In contrast to the typified view of genomes as fixed within species\, we find considerable evidence for genome dynamics (e.g. cyclical polyploidization\, chromosomal rearrangements) across the eukaryotic tree of life. Based on these data\, we hypothesized that LECA\, the last eukaryotic common ancestor\, had a dynamic genome that used epigenetic mechanisms to distinguish germline (i.e. to be inherited) from somatic genome material. Though fewer data exist for bacteria and archaea\, there is also evidence of genome dynamics among these lineages suggesting either multiple or very ancient origins of the dynamic processes. Together\, these data challenge ideas on the nature of genomes across the tree of life.

SUMMARY:Other:Vigil in support of Ayotzinapa
DESCRIPTION:On Thursday\, November 20th we are hosting a prayer vigil at the University of Michigan in Ann Arbor.  Please see attached flyer for details. In addition to this we will be  collecting petition signatures.   Your attendance and promotion for this event is appreciated. SUMMARY of events that ocurred on September 26\, 2014:43 students from the Rural Normal School Isidro Burgos\, in Ayotzinapa\, Guerrero were disappeared.  In the small city of Iguala in southern Mexico\, dozens of students were attacked by police and masked gunmen. 6 students were killed in the clash\, and another 43 remain missing—last seen in the custody of police.  Over 50 suspects have been detained\, including drug cartel members\, dozens of police\, and the mayor of Iguala and his wife.  A week after the attack\, 28 bodies were discovered in a mass grave outside the city\, but forensic analysis so far suggests that none of them belonged to the missing students.  Hundreds of thousands of Mexicans\, enraged by the attacks and the lack of information\, have marched in protest across the country\, in some places attacking and burning government buildings.  The seriousness of the case and the inadequate response from the Mexican government has led to a global call to action for the families and communities affected by the corruption\, violence\, and insecurity.

SUMMARY:Other:Hajja Razia Sharif Sheikh Lecure in Islamic Studies
DESCRIPTION:Professor Robert Morrison of Bowdoin College Presents the 2014 Sheikh Lecture: Is Science Part of Islam?\n\nThe Prophet Muhammad is reported to have said\, “There is no act of devotion like contemplation (la ‘ibada ka-’l-tafakkur).” The Qur’an refers to the natural world as evidence for God’s power and providence.  This lecture will examine how scientific contemplation of nature has related to other dimensions of Islam historically and in the present.  Questions to be explored include: Can science affect Muslims’ understanding of Islamic texts?  What are some contemporary conversations between Islam and science?  What is Islamic about Islamic science?\n\nRobert G. Morrison is Assosicate Professor and Chair of the Religion Department at Bowdoin University in Brunswick\, Maine.  His research has focused on the role of science in Islamic and Jewish texts\, as well as in the history of Islamic science.  Professor Morrison has contributed the chapters on Islamic astronomy to the New Cambridge History of Islam and the Cambridge History of Science.\n\nThis event is made possible by the Hajja Razia Sharif Sheikh endowment in Islamic Studies and Co-Sponsored by the Department of Near Eastern Studies and the Islamic Studies Program

SUMMARY:Performance:Robyn Hitchcock w/sg Lera Lynn
DESCRIPTION:Over the past four decades\, Robyn Hitchcock has built a large and distinctive body of work that's established him as one of rock's most respected and beloved iconoclasts. Drawing on roots in the music of John Lennon\, Bob Dylan\, and the New Wave\, his unique songs veer from comic surrealism to slightly melancholy pictures of everyday life and the slightly eccentric people who live it--all set to gorgeous melodies and harmonies. Of his album \"Olé Tarantula\, he said\, “To me\, the whole record is sadness cloaked in fun. But under that sadness\, more fun\,” he says. Robyn comes to Michigan for his first new show in seven years with several recent releases including \"The Man Upstairs\,\" which reimagines the songs of the Psychedelic Furs and others as folk ballads. Nashville Americana artist and recent American Songwriter Writer of the Week Lera Lynn opens.
