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.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:The Crown: Contemporary Construction of Self in America
DESCRIPTION:Note: The Gallery is open M-F 9am-5pm.\n\nThe Crown: Contemporary Construction of Self in America is an exhibit and series of programs imagined by visiting artist Shani Peters and sponsored by the Department of Afroamerican and African Studies (DAAS) and the Institute for the Humanities (IH).  The project will feature a video installation in the IH gallery\, an interactive portrait exhibition in GalleryDAAS\, and a video screening of  the award winning film\, Chameleon Street. The screenings will be held at the Institute of the Humanities and at the Charles Wright Museum in Detroit\, MI.\n\nAbout the project:\n\nThe Crown: Contemporary Construction of Self in America is a series of projects by artist Shani Peters that will examine the socially acceptable yet complicated concept of Black pride and success. Crowns\, symbolic of kings and queens\, and conferred on any number of Black popular culture figures from James Brown to Biggie\, are also symbols for systems of inequitably distributed resources and injustice. This multi-part project—which includes two exhibitions\, a film screening\, and a panel discussion—asks the question: what does it mean to acknowledge the need for these forms of pride and success while recognizing their problems? It further complicates the question with a consideration of the similar celebration and pride that comes from attaining degrees of higher education which offer obvious opportunities\, yet can alienate students of African descent from their origins. The artist asks\, how do Black people register these complicated elements in ways that allow them to move progressively through western power structures towards futures that reflect their right to dignity and self-determination? Sponsored by the Department of Afroamerican and African Studies and the Institute for the Humanities.

SUMMARY:Conference / Symposium:CES Symposium
DESCRIPTION:The study of foreign languages in American universities is undergoing radical change. American university students are turning away from European national languages to embrace the global languages which they believe provide distinct advantages in a rapidly changing economy. At the same time\, scholarship emphasizes languages in context—as part of the living fabric of human societies and cultures. This symposium brings together scholars of the major Western European languages—Spanish\, French\, German\, Italian\, and Portuguese—to discuss and debate the shifting position of national languages as an intellectual problem and the implications that these changes have had and will continue to have in American university classrooms.\n\nOrganizer: Karla Mallette\, CES director and professor of Italian and Near Eastern Studies\, U-M

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Uncanny Valley
DESCRIPTION:Guy Michael Davis and Katie Parker\n(collaboratively working under the name Future Retrieval)\n\nThe objects presented merge the strengths of our studio practice – a dark vein backed by a historical current. Ornament and detail collide with a fascination of taxidermy and natural order. 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:Lecture / Discussion: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:Lecture / Discussion:#Black Lives Matter: A Minicourse by the Residential College
DESCRIPTION:This session will briefly review the history of racism in the Detroit police force and the reconfiguration of the department in the period when Coleman Young was Mayor. We will then explore the more recent incidents of police violence toward Detroit residents\, together with the federal investigation and consent decree designed to reign in police violence\, raising the question: what role does race play in contemporary Detroit police behavior? Finally in the context of grassroots responses by Detroit residents to the challenges the city faces after abandonment and bankruptcy\, we'll consider the work of the Detroit Coalition against Police Brutality (with its founder) and reflect upon some of the initiatives citizens have devised to address both police and interpersonal violence and to define alternative strategies for the pacification of neighborhoods. The session will be led by Stephen Ward and Charlie Bright (both Faculty\, STP Program\, RC) and Ron Scott\, a long-time Detroit activist and media strategist who co-hosts a weekly political affairs radio program and is a board member of the Boggs Center to Nurture Community Leadership.

SUMMARY:Performance:Concert Band
DESCRIPTION:Courtney Synder\, conductor\n\nThis concert celebrates the music of exactly one century (1909-2009) and represents a panoply of harmonic\, melodic\, and rhythmic compositional styles. Two staples of the wind repertoire by Holst and Persichetti will be performed. Bryant reimagines Holst’s suite in Suite Dreams\, a piece that utilizes aleatory in similar fashion to Welcher’s Laboring Songs\, a composition inspired by the religious Shaker musical anthology. Both Pann and Biedenbender utilize traditional harmonies in not-so-traditional manners that range from lyrical and introspective to syncopated dance with “serious attitude.” \n\nPROGRAM: Welcher- Laboring Songs\; Pann- Hold This Boy and Listen\; Holst- First Suite in E-flat\; Bryant- Suite Dreams\; Persichetti- Symphony No. 6\; Biedenbender– Stomp
