SUMMARY:Exhibition:Gifts of Art presents Life Line: Scratchboard Etchings
DESCRIPTION:While Chicagoan Lisa S. Goesling has spent her life creating art\, she discovered scratchboards (boards made of clay and India ink) while undergoing a cancer diagnosis in 2006. The idea that adversity teaches us to turn the negative into a positive is a great analogy for transforming these black boards into thriving works of art. Her past careers in graphic design and art direction continue to influence her art by incorporating the fundamentals of design\, such as composition\, pattern\, texture\, contrast\, line\, etc. Using nature as her muse\, Goesling scratches fine lines into a layer of ink until meticulous images appear in the clay.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Re-Imaging Gender - A Juried Art Exhibition
DESCRIPTION:Our understandings of gender have shifted dramatically in recent decades. No longer is gender a matter of an immutable binary\, or a set of predetermined preferences and predilections. This exhibition--the first of its kind--both celebrates and interrogates the visual aspects of the re- imaging of gender.\n\nRe-imaging Gender features the work of 15 promising artists who take on one of the most important challenges facing contemporary art: how to render the modern spectrum of gender\, going beyond the simple male/female binary to include a wide variety of identities and sexualities.\n\nThe Re-imaging artists\, MFA students enrolled at Michigan and CIC universities (Big 10\, plus Chicago)\, responded to an IRWG-issued Call for Art. The result is an exhibition of 17 works in a variety of media\, including photography\, paint\, lithograph\, mixed media\, and video\, which reflect new understandings of gender.\n\nThe exhibit will be displayed at the Lane Hall Gallery\, a space shared by IRWG and the U-M Department of Women’s Studies\, from January 15 - June 26\, 2015.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:\"Now or Never\": Collecting\, Documenting\, and Photographing the Aftermath of World War I in the Middle East
DESCRIPTION:World War I was far from over in the Middle East when the Germany officially surrendered to the Entente forces on 11 November 1918. As the European colonial powers sought to divide up the territory of the multiethnic Ottoman Empire\, the forces of Turkish nationalist leader Mustafa Kemal fought a war of independence claiming victory and announcing the establishment of a Turkish Republic on 29 October 1923. It was in the context of continued conflict that University of Michigan Professor of Archaeology Francis Willey Kelsey (1858-1927) traveled to the Near East. Accompanied by his wife Isabelle (Mary) Badger Kelsey (1867-1944)\, his fifteen-year old son Easton Trowbridge Kelsey (b. 1904) and University of Michigan staff photographer George Robert Swain (1866-1947)\, Kelsey visited a region of the world that not only had experienced four-years of destructive war and devastating famine\, but also was the site of genocide.\n\nThe initial mission was to collect ancient manuscripts that were destined to disappear in the post war chaos. To initiate the mission\, Prof. Kelsey wrote an urgent letter to Miss Belle da Costa Greene of the Pierpont Library on October 3\, 1918. He solicited her support for an immediate expedition into the aftermath of war for “unless peace comes soon enough to save the remnants” of Greek and Armenian society\, who have “been practically exterminated in certain large regions of Asia Minor” no record of these Christian communities would remain.  It was “now or never” he writes that ancient and medieval manuscripts may be purchased from “unappreciative hands” for a token price. It was now or never that Greek\, Syriac\, Persian and Armenian manuscripts could be easily picked up and the “possession of these\, and their proper preservation\, will be a gain to science of inestimable value.” Little did Kelsey know that his travels to the Near East would also become a moment of witnessing.  Kelsey’s diaries and Swain’s photographs on exhibit leave an important historical record that links them personally and the University of Michigan to one of the largest humanitarian efforts in history.\n\nOrganizers: Kathryn Babayan\, associate professor of history and Near Eastern studies\, U-M\; and Melanie Tanielian\, assistant professor of history\, U-M.

Each object contains a history\, reaching back and highlighting ideals of time and labor.\nThree-dimensional scans and photographs have been rapid prototyped\, processed in the studio\, and molded into porcelain mimicking the world of European decorative arts. Inspired also by German animal sculptures and cut silhouettes\, we are using digital translation to both highlight and transform these details that fascinate us. The interest in new technologies and industrial methods is that each piece is handmade\, but maintains the record of a computer driven interpretation. Our intention is to make art objects that reference design and are held together by craft.\n\nBio \nFuture Retrieval\n\nGuy Michael Davis was born in 1978 and raised in Bartlesville\, OK. Katie Parker was born in 1980 in Jonesboro Arkansas\, and grew up in Plano\, Texas. They both attended the Kansas City Art Institute from 1999-2003 and received BFA degrees in ceramics.\nKatie went straight to graduate school at The Ohio State University from 2003-2005\, Guy followed suit three years later from 2006-2008. Both Katie and Guy received MFA degrees in ceramics. \nCurrently\, Katie is an Assistant Professor at the University of Cincinnati\, running the ceramics department. Guy works for multiple designers across the country\, and is an adjunct Assistant Professor at the University of Cincinnati. For several years\, they have also been collaborating together\, making objects that combine new technology\, porcelain\, and good craft. The objects merge the strengths of their individual studio practice – a dark vein backed by a historical current. They have exhibited both nationally and internationally\, with recent shows in New York City\, Jingdezhen China\, Cardiff Wales\, Philadelphia\, Kansas City\, and Tempe Arizona. This summer they were both artists in residence at the Bemis Center for Contemporary Art in Omaha\, NE.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Flip Your Field: Objects from the Collection
DESCRIPTION:For the third installation of the Flip Your Field series\, UMMA invites Georgios Skiniotis\, Professor of Biological Chemistry at U-M’s Life Sciences Institute and Medical School\, to curate an exhibition from the Museum’s collection of three-dimensional objects.\n 	As a scientist\, Skiniotis creates three-dimensional models of cellular components by combining their magnified shadows or projections viewed from different perspectives. This type of study inevitably raises questions regarding the cognition of the objects around us—how\, in the absence of perspective\, are we to read elements like color\, contrast variation\, and depth of field in the dark outlines of objects? How do we make the cognitive connection between a two-dimensional shadow and the three-dimensional object that casts it? How many two-dimensional projections are needed for us to understand what we are looking at\, and at what level of detail?\nThis exhibition poses such questions by juxtaposing three-dimensional objects from the Museum’s collection with two-dimensional projections created by Skiniotis using a similar process with which he creates models of cellular components. The presentation aims to provide a glimpse of the impressions of the selected works from varied directions through interplay with their own projections and our minds.\nThe UMMA Flip Your Field series asks noted University of Michigan faculty members to consider artwork outside their field of specialization in order to guest curate an exhibition using works from UMMA's renowned collection. The UMMA Flip Your Field series is generously supported by the Andrew W. Mellon Foundation.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Guido van der Werve: Nummer veertien\, home
DESCRIPTION:Nummer veertien\, home\, Dutch artist Guido van der Werve’s 54-minute film\, weaves together three stories of journeys away from home: the death of Frédéric Chopin in Paris and his sister’s quest to bring the composer’s heart back to his native Poland for burial\; Van der Werve’s own quest to retrace\, in reverse\, the route of Chopin’s heart in a three-week\, thousand-mile trek of biking\, running\, and swimming\; and the story of Alexander the Great\, a traveling warrior who is one of Van der Werve’s personal heroes.\n\nThe film explores themes that are common in Van der Werve’s work: extreme physical and mental endurance\, man’s struggle with the intensity of nature\, the interplay of history and geography\, the power of melancholy\, and the solitary traveler. The artist’s signature sensibility—simultaneously surreal and deadpan—is accentuated in the film by the full orchestra that accompanies him on every stage of his journey. Van der Werve spent a year composing the film’s score\, a classical requiem for forty voices and twenty strings\, and the film’s structure mirrors that of the requiem: three movements of four acts apiece\, with each act introduced by title shots to reinforce this organizational system. The tripartite framework underscores the three legs of Van der Werve’s personal triathlon and the three odysseys that intersect and inform one another throughout the film.        \n\nLead support for this exhibition is provided by the Herbert W. and Susan L. Johe Endowment.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Hana Hamplová: Meditations on Paper
DESCRIPTION:Inspired by a story by Czech writer Bohumil Hrabal\, Czech photographer Hana Hamplová created a memorable body of work during the 1970s based on how important paper and the written word are to civilization—including how easily writings and\, consequently knowledge\, can be lost.  This exhibition\, consisting of 19 photographs from UMMA’s collection\, was inspired by the presence of the Frank Gehry chair made of cardboard in UMMA’s Design Gallery\, and of and the need to address how artists from different cultures (present-day America and communist Czechoslovakia) view a commodity as common as paper.\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 Center for European Studies\, Center for Russian\, East European and Eurasian Studies\, and the Weiser Center for Emerging Democracies.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:HE: The Hergott Shepard Photography Collection
DESCRIPTION:For more than 25 years\, Los Angeles-based collectors Alan Hergott and Curt Shepard have built a world-class collection of contemporary art that is focused on men and male identity as its subject matter. This exhibition features works from their vast holdings in photography. Guest curator Mario Codognato examines the lives of men in contemporary Western societies—with all their contradictions—through themes of competition and solidarity\, confrontation with identity\, and diverse explorations of the body and sexuality (as both sign and experience). Together\, these thematic groups form a fictional\, somewhat idealized\, tale in 13 chapters\, inviting viewers to reflect upon their own stories as well.\n\nDrawing upon the Hergott Shepard collection as well as select works gifted by the collectors to the Hammer Museum at UCLA\, the Los Angeles County Museum of Art (LACMA)\, and the Museum of Contemporary Art\, Los Angeles (MOCA)\, the exhibition will include more than 60 works by some of the most important names in late 20th and early 21st century art\, including Doug Aitken\, John Baldessari\, Matthew Barney\, Rineke Dijkstra\, Gilbert and George\, Nan Goldin\, Robert Mapplethorpe\, Catherine Opie\, Herb Ritts\, Thomas Ruff\, Andres Serrano\, and Wolfgang Tillmans.\n\nLead support for this exhibition is provided by the University of Michigan Office of the Provost and the University of Michigan Health System. Additional generous support is provided by the University of Michigan Office of the Vice Provost for Equity\, Inclusion\, and Academic Affairs\, Department of the History of Art\, Institute for Research on Women and Gender\, Institute for the Humanities\, and Residential College\, and the Katherine Tuck Enrichment Fund.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Medicinal Plants and Gardens: Matthaei Botanical Gardens & Nichols Arboretum
DESCRIPTION:This exhibition celebrates the upcoming 2015 opening of the new Medicinal Garden at the University of Michigan’s Matthaei Botanical Gardens. The earliest botanical garden at the University was a pharmaceutical garden established in 1897 just off the Diag\, at the heart of Central Campus. The new garden\, developed in partnership with the College of Pharmacy and Medical School faculty\, will continue that legacy\, aiming to explore the botanical origins of historical and current medicines\, and to promote a better understanding of the profound relationship between plants and human health.\nPreceding the garden’s opening\, this exhibition at UMMA will feature rarely seen archival plant specimens\, deposited by pharmaceutical companies at the University Herbarium\, along with newer herbarium specimens that reveal the captivating forms of these medicinal plants. These dried and pressed plant specimens will be accompanied by the presentation of the few remaining historic images of the original pharmaceutical garden\, as well as a drawing of the layout of new garden at Matthaei\, which is uniquely organized according to the systems of the human body that these medicinal plants are used to treat.\nThis exhibition is part of the U-M Collections Collaborations series\, co-organized by and presented at UMMA and designed to showcase the renowned and diverse collections at the University of Michigan. The U-M Collections Collaborations series is generously supported by the Andrew W. Mellon Foundation.

DESCRIPTION:In this participatory powerpoint presentation\, Dr. Els Nieuwenhuijsen covers three key topics related to the International Classification of Functioning (ICF)\, which is the World Health Organization (WHO) framework for measuring health and disability at both individual and population levels.\n\n1. The background of the ICF: brief history\, paradigm shift from the medical model\, to the social model\, to the bio-psycho-social model\, and rationale.\n2. The ICF concepts of health\, functioning and disability: the main domains of functioning (body/structure\, activities and participation level) and the interaction between these domains with environmental and personal factors. She will briefly cover the ICF codes.\n3. The utility of the ICF\, ICF core sets\, use of terms recommended by the WHO\, and strategic areas.\n\nNieuwenhuijsen is adjunct faculty in the U-M Department of Physical Medicine and Rehabilitation and a volunteer pilot test coordinator of the Unitarian Universalist Association Accessibility and Inclusion Ministry (AIM) Certificate Program at the First Unitarian Universalist Congregation of Ann Arbor.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:CBSSM Seminar featuring Leigh Turner\, PhD (March 10th
DESCRIPTION:Announcing our next CBSSM seminar for Tuesday\, March 10th. (Please note the different date and location):\n\nU.S. Clinics Marketing Unlicensed and Unproven “Stem Cell” Interventions: Ethical Concerns and Regulatory Challenges\n \nLeigh Turner\, PhD\, Associate Professor\, Center for Bioethics\, School of Public Health\, and College of Pharmacy\, University of Minnesota \n\nTuesday\, March 10\, 2015\n3:00-4:00 pm\n\nCenter for Bioethics and Social Sciences in Medicine\nUniversity of Michigan\n2800 Plymouth Road\nNCRC\, Building 16\, B001E\nAnn Arbor\, MI 48109-2800 \n\n\nAbstract: Clinics advertising “stem cell” interventions are proliferating across the U.S.  These businesses market putative “stem cell therapies” for ALS\, MS\, Parkinson’s disease\, spinal cord injuries\, muscular dystrophy\, and many other diseases and injuries. Physicians at such clinics typically claim that they are engaged in the practice of medicine. They deny that they are promoting and administering biological drugs that are supposed to go through regulatory review and receive approval from the FDA before entering the marketplace. In many cases\, available evidence suggests that this “practice of medicine” rationale is incorrect. Rather\, by advertising unproven and unlicensed biological drugs\, U.S. clinics appear to violate regulatory standards\, ethical norms\, and guidelines for the responsible conduct of research.  It is understandable that patients are drawn to such businesses by powerful rhetorical claims\, dramatic testimonials\, and persuasive company websites. However\, the advertisement\, manufacture\, and administration of unproven and unlicensed stem cell interventions generates many ethical\, legal\, and scientific concerns.\n\nRefreshments will be provided!\n\nYou can find the complete list of CBSSM seminars on the CBSSM website.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:Annual Distinguished Lecture on Europe
DESCRIPTION:Speaker: Jean Boutier\, Chair of Comparative History of the European Aristocracy from the 16th to the 18th Century\, EHESS\n\nIn the 1550s a new kind of educational institution designed specifically for the nobility emerged in several European countries\, mainly noble academies or academies for the nobility. Although universities and colleges have been the object of numerous studies and overviews at the European scale (particularly the University model)\, noble academies have elicited only monographs of a very local kind or at best a few preliminary enquiries on a national scale. Yet\, this educational model\, with some variations that would require further precision\, imposed itself in the principal Western European countries and took root both in Northern and Central Europe. Its establishment\, though less massive than the colleges\, was nonetheless very dense (several dozen are known and inventoried). This paper\, based on a methodical inventory and a solid cartographical geography of the circulations they allowed\, will show how the model of the “cortegiano/courtier\,” forged in Italy\, was constructed thanks partly to the educational activities of these noble academies. Organized around the equestrian arts and fencing\, this educational model with a social and professional purpose was one of the principal actors in the modernization of the nobilities (from initiation in modern languages\, military mathematics\, and “political sciences” to body discipline through dance and music). Noble academies were thus one of the sites of production of a new\, increasingly and resolutely transnational aristocratic culture\, which they helped diffuse\, especially by accepting foreign nobles. In this framework\, Boutier will analyze the presence of nobles from Central and Eastern Europe in these academies from the second half of the 16th century.

SUMMARY:Film Screening:Ancient Rome in Silent Cinema - Maria Wyke University College London (2015 Thomas Spencer Jerome Lecture Series)
DESCRIPTION:Cinema has been fascinated with the ancient world and with Roman history in particular ever since it emerged as a new technology more than one hundred years ago. Within a few months of the first public shows of moving images held in 1896\, Nero was brought onto the screen trying out poisons on his slaves\, and hundreds more films were made thereafter. The vast majority remain largely forgotten although they still survive in archives across the world. Yet the persistence of ancient Rome in early cinema compels us to ask: why did so modern a medium have so strong an interest in antiquity right from its start? What did ancient Rome do for cinema? And what did cinema do for ancient Rome?

SUMMARY:Film Screening:Threshold: Whispers of Fukushima
DESCRIPTION:This film tells the story of several individuals who chose to stay in Fukushima\, Japan  following the horrible earthquake that took place in the spring of 2011.  In the wake of this disaster\, many used music and performance to express themselves.  Having lost almost everything\, their commitment to music has been key to their endurance and evolution in their changed world.  From their inspiring sounds and stories\, they show us the importance of finding and nurturing our own happiness.\n\nThe film is directed by artist\, photographer\, and filmmaker Toko Shiiki\, with score by U-M Associate Professor of Music and Composition\, Erik Santos. Work began on the film in the spring of 2013\, and the film premieres at UMMA in time to commemorate the four-year anniversary of the earthquake.\n\nThis program is co-sponsored by UMMA and the U-M Center for Japanese Studies.
