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:Now or Never: Collecting\, Documenting and Photographing the Aftermath of World War I in the Middle East
DESCRIPTION:Diaries written by U-M professor of archaeology Francis Willey Kelsey (1858–1927) and photographs taken by U-M staff photographer George Robert Swain (1866–1947) are a historical record that links them—and the University of Michigan—to one of the largest preservation efforts in history. Kelsey wrote\, “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.\n\nKelsey and Swain initially traveled to the Near East to collect ancient manuscripts that were destined to disappear in the post World War I chaos\, as the war was far from over in the Middle East when Germany officially surrendered to the Entente forces on November 11\, 1918. Two Armenian manuscripts that were purchased as a consequence of the expedition are on display.\n\nLecture and opening reception will take place at 4 p.m. on January 14 in the Hatcher Library Gallery\, adjacent to the exhibit.\n\nExhibit materials are courtesy of the Bentley Historical Library and U-M Library Special Collections.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:The Jewish Tradition of Tsedakah as Exemplified in Pushkes\, Charity Donation Boxes
DESCRIPTION:This exhibit features an eclectic selection of Pushkes (פּושקעס) – the common Yiddish moniker for charity/donation boxes. In Judaism\, dispensing of charity is not simply a monetary transaction. Rather\, the act is a beautiful exemplar of an individual’s conscious choice to help another person\, while also acknowledging the transience of material wealth and paying one’s good fortunes forward.\n\nThese Pushkes function as vessels that anonymize the donations within\, stressing that the act of giving should not be done for acknowledgement. Instead\, giving should signify a gesture of honest good will. Furthermore\, the amalgam of wealth inside these boxes is comprised of the materiality and benevolence of an entire community.\n\nצדקה תציל ממװת\nTsedakah tatsil mi-mavet\nCharity Saves from Death\n     — 156b\, Tractate Shabes\, Babylonian Talmud\n\nAll items on display were donated by Constance Harris and are on loan from the Jewish Heritage Collection Dedicated to Mark and Dave Harris\, Special Collections Library\, University of Michigan Library—except where otherwise noted.

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: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: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.

SUMMARY:Presentation:Faculty Candidate Talk: People\, Policy\, and Practice in the Learning Health System: A vision for the next generation
DESCRIPTION:Jodyn Platt\, MPH\, PhD is a research investigator in the Department of Learning Health Sciences within the Medical School and in the Department of Health Management and Policy within the School of Public Health.\n\nThe next generation of health information technology\, organized as a “learning health system\,” promises efficient\, engineered solutions to the well-known and enduring maladies of the existing U.S. health infrastructure: escalating costs\, poor health outcomes\, ineffective use of technology\, sluggish research pipelines\, dangerous medical error rates\, and failure to implement known clinical best practices. A learning health system would enable continuously and rapidly operating virtuous cycles of health improvement through study\, feedback\, and change by capitalizing on increasing amounts of digital health data. This presentation examines the significance and role of public engagement and public trust in the emerging learning health system.  It further considers how research in this area can inform stable policy platforms that will contribute to meeting the vision of the learning health system.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:We Heart Malolos: Cultural Heritage Preservation/Tourism in Malolos\, Bulacan\, Philippines
DESCRIPTION:Speaker: Kale Fajardo\, associate professor of American Studies and Asian American Studies\, University of Minnesota\, Twin Cities\n\nMalolos\, Bulacan\, Philippines was at the heart of Philippine nationalism and nation-building at the end of the 19th Century. The town (now city) was the site of the 1898 constitutional convention and the first Philippine Republic was established in Malolos\, at the sanctuary of the Barasoain Church. Additionally\, the convent at the Malolos Cathedral served as the presidential palace for the first Philippine President\, Emilio Aguinaldo. In this way\, Malolos is seen as “the birthplace of the first constitutional republic in Asia.” In 2011\, a leading cultural heritage preservation non-governmental organization (NGO)\, Heritage Conservation Society (based in Manila) threatened to remove Malolos from the Philippines’s lists of historical and cultural heritage and resources because the organization alleged\, “there were no efforts done by the local government and the people to preserve the marked structures.” This lecture addresses the problems and possibilities of cultural heritage preservation/tourism efforts (including architectural preservation) in contemporary Malolos. In particular\, Fajardo will discuss how “Manila-fication” or urbanization impacts cultural heritage preservation/tourism efforts in Malolos\, as well as increased out-migration and increased local population densities\, real estate developments\, flooding resulting from climate change\, and Philippine neoliberal economic policies. The lecture is based on participant-observation research and public education efforts Fajardo has been conducting and coordinating in Malolos in partnership with The Women of Malolos Foundation – a cultural heritage advocacy NGO\, and Bahay-Saliksikan ng Bulacan (The Center for Bulacan Studies) at Bulacan State University.\n\nAbout the Speaker:\n\nBorn in Malolos\, Bulacan\, Philippines and raised in Portland\, Oregon\, Kale Bantigue Fajardo is an associate professor of Asian/American Studies at the University of Minnesota\, Twin Cities. Fajardo completed his undergraduate degree at Cornell University where he studied Southeast Asian Studies/Philippine Studies and feminist studies. Fajardo completed his PhD in cultural anthropology from the University of California\, Santa Cruz. His first book\, Filipino Crosscurrents: Seafaring\, Masculinities and Globalization was published by the University of Minnesota Press (2011). Filipino Crosscurrents was one of only two books published outside of the Philippines selected by the University of the Philippines Press for reprinting for a Philippine and Southeast Asian audience (2013). He has a forthcoming essay – “Queering and Transing the Great Lakes: Filipino/a Tomboy Masculinities and Manhoods Across Waters\,” in an special issue of GLQ\, titled Queering the Middle: Race\, Region and a Queer Midwest. Fajardo has published other essays in Figures of Southeast Asian Modernity (2013)\; GLQ: Gay and Lesbian Studies Quarterly (2008) and Mains'l Haul (2002). He is currently conducting on-going advocacy-research on cultural heritage preservation/tourism in Malolos and is collaborating with cultural heritage preservation/tourism advocates and cultural workers in his hometown to produce a series of public education/anthropology events that center around cultural heritage preservation/tourism efforts in Malolos. This research and public education is funded by a two-year Grant-in-Aid of Research\, Scholarship\, and Artistry from the Office of the Vice President for Research at the University of Minnesota\, Twin Cities.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:David Baysunghur’s Model Books: Making Manuscripts in Early Fifteenth-Century Herat
DESCRIPTION:Timurid prince Baysunghur (d. 1433)\, son of Shahrukh\, grandson of Timur\, has long been recognized as both generous patron and accomplished practitioner of art and literature. The effects of a rich corpus of written sources in Persian and the objects made for him—a personal library of finely made manuscripts—have led scholars to attribute to him creative agency and aesthetic adjudication. While the lecture questions this formulation\, its chief concern is to reconsider the achievements of artists in the Herat workshop (kitabkhana) and the new kinds of books that they made. Baysunghur’s books were not only marked by technical accomplishment and formal coherence across media but by the studied emulation of selected artistic traditions throughout Greater Iran. The lecture gauges the implications and effects of these choices upon the beholder.\n\nDavid J. Roxburgh is Prince Alwaleed Bin Talal Professor of Islamic Art History at Harvard University where he has taught since he received the Ph.D. from University of Pennsylvania in 1996. In his publications\, Roxburgh has pursued several interests—including aesthetics and the history of reception—and approaches to the study of art history.

SUMMARY:Performance:Green Operas
DESCRIPTION:Timothy Cheek and Steven McGhee\, music directors\n\nRobert Swedberg’s Opera Studio classes are presenting performances of two one-act versions of Mozart operas: La Finta Giardiniera\, written by 18-year-old Mozart and titled\, in this version\, Love in the Garden State\, sung in Italian with English dialogue\; and La Clemenza di Tito\, written in Mozart’s last year\,  also sung in Italian. Both operas will be presented at each performance and will feature both undergraduate and graduate level students. This is the seventh year that U-M is presenting Green Operas as part of the Opera Studio program. Green Operas are designed to reduce the energy consumption associated with theatrical presentation by using mostly projected scenery\, or otherwise recycled materials for scenic elements and costumes\; LED lights\; musical scores printed on recycled paper\; and the avoidance of printed advertising or programs\, offering\, instead\, a QR code link to a website for smart-phones. These efforts reduce energy consumption for these performances by as much as 95% relative to similar productions in similar venues without green economies.

SUMMARY:Performance:Luke Wade
DESCRIPTION:You've heard Luke Wade on \"The Voice.\" Now get to know him better! Luke's music attempts to reflect honestly the human condition. Such a calling requires a humility and self-awareness that seldom find an artist until late in his career\, when he’s turned the corner from idealistic to philosophical. Often young singer-songwriters aspire to draw a picture with words\, a melodic expression of the visual\, hoping to capture a single meaningful moment in time. Luke aspires to capture our journey through it—and his sophomore album\, “The River\,\" speaks to a brilliant departure on that journey.
