SUMMARY:Exhibition:Gifts of Art presents Light Within the Darkness of Nature: Oil on Canvas
DESCRIPTION:Using palette knives and an intuitive response to her oil paints and surface\, painter Sheryl Budnik first looks carefully at the land or sea\, noticing her emotional response. She paints what she feels is the heart of a place\, finding \"the light within the darkness of nature”\, or Lumen Naturae. This refers to Paracelsus’ Middle Ages idea that the light in nature allows inspiration and intuition to rise from the subconscious. Budnik evokes a memory of land or water with her abstract paintings in order to connect us with the spirit of the earth and leave us with an awareness that we are all nature.

Her bead woven jewelry has been in fine art shows from Ann Arbor\, Michigan to Bellevue\, Washington and has been described as miniature works of stained glass.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Gifts of Art presents The Color of U-M Sports: Helicopter Photography
DESCRIPTION:As perhaps the world’s only artist-photographer who works primarily from a helicopter\, Dale Fisher captures and transforms his subjects using color\, light and shadows – all while skimming over his subjects at ground speeds of up to 120 miles per hour. In the US Navy\, he began shooting with a camera from the skies as an aerial reconnaissance photographer. In the ‘60s\, Fisher traveled the country in a Ford pickup truck with a camper top darkroom\, towing a rather lengthy trailer with his helicopter. Now working in the digital format\, Fisher currently resides and has his studio on a 200 year old farm in Grass Lake\, Michigan\, and his work can be found in public and private collections across the country.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Gifts of Art presents The Spirit of Place: Oil Paintings
DESCRIPTION:A full time painter\, Laurie Schirmer Carpenter studied art at the University of Colorado\, Denver but has deep ties to the Midwest. She has developed a special interest in the land and skies of this region\, which are often depicted in her paintings. While her paintings are of particular places or things in nature\, they are paintings first – ideas made visual. Most of them result from sketches\, en plein air paintings and photographs made during a walk or bike ride through the countryside. Using these references\, she creates the paintings in her studio that are often a composite of several places. Her oil paintings can be found in many private and corporate collections.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Chrysopylae Video Installation by Doug Hall
DESCRIPTION:Doug Hall’s immersive two-screen video installation challenges the familiar picture-postcard vision of the Golden Gate with a pair of contrasting perspectives. Emphasizing the monumentality of not only the Golden Gate Bridge\, but also the massive container ships that pass beneath it\, the installation reveals the bridge as part of an environment that is at once natural and human-made.\n\nAbout the artist\n\nDoug Hall is an internationally known artist who has worked for over 40 years in a wide range of media\, including performance\, installation\, video\, and large format photography. In the 1970s he became prominent for his work with the media art collective T. R. Uthco\, which\, among many other works\, created the video and installation The Eternal Frame\, a reenactment of the Kennedy assassination. In the late 1980s his interests expanded to include large format photography\, which has remained central to his practice. His work has been exhibited in museums in the United States and Europe and is included in numerous collections. The recipient of numerous grants and awards\, Hall received the 1995 Rome Prize. He is professor emeritus at the San Francisco Art Institute.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Exhibit: Women in Science
DESCRIPTION:Colorful comic book graphics in this panel exhibit invite young U-M Museum of Natural History visitors from every background to see themselves working in STEM fields (Science\, Technology\, Engineering\, and Mathematics)\, and changing the world.\n\nDeveloped by Ann Marie Macara\, a fifth-year graduate student in the U-M Department of Molecular\, Cellular\, and Developmental Biology\, the exhibit features four women scientists whose work had a major impact in their fields. These women persevered against the odds and are powerful role models who continue to inspire young women to follow in their footsteps in STEM.\n\nMary Anning represents Science for her discoveries of fossils from the Jurassic period. Annie Easley personifies Technology as one of the few African-American computer scientists to work at NASA (then NACA) as a ‘human computer’ and who then developed software for rockets. Sarah Goode stands for Engineering as the first African-American woman to receive a US patent for her invention of the folding cabinet bed. Finally\, Wang Zhenyi exemplifies Mathematics for her mathematical models of astronomical events\, including eclipses. \n  \nThe exhibit was made possible through the support of the U-M Life Sciences Institute\; a MAAS Professional Development Award\; the Program in Biomedical Science\; the Department of Molecular\, Cellular\, and Developmental Biology\; the Women in Science and Engineering Program\; and FEMMES (Females Engaged in More Math\, Engineering and the Sciences).

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Julie Rae Powers: A Coal Miner's Daughter Revisited Pop-Up Exhibition
DESCRIPTION:During my childhood coal was king. There was nothing better than having a mining job. Festivals were created to celebrate miner’s service to the industry and to thank their families for helping along the way. Although\, coal jobs have declined in towns of West Virginia where I grew up\, there is still an allegiance to an industry that helped families live larger and better\; a reminiscence of the good ole’ days. This series helps explore the complex\, conflicted experience of coal miners\, their families\, interest in the tradition of vernacular objects\, and to pay homage to the personal family history of coal mining and the work ethic included within it.  –Julie Rae Powers\n\nJulie Rae Powers is a photographic artist\, born in West Virginia\, and grew up in the south. Her practice centers on identity experiences\, personal history\, and gender/sexuality politics. Her work has recently been added to the permanent collection of the Institute for Research on Women and Gender at the University of Michigan and published in Rich Community: An Anthology of Appalachian Photographers by Sapling Grove Press. She is currently entering her last year of the MFA program at The Ohio State University.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:Promoting Renewable Electricity in Ontario\, Canada:  Policies and Politics
DESCRIPTION:Monday\, September 28\, 2015\n\nGerald R. Ford School of Public Policy\, Annenberg Auditorium (1120)\, Weill Hall\n735 S. State Street\, Ann Arbor 48109-3091\n\n11:30am-1:00pm (Pizza lunch provided at 11:30am\, lecture begins at 11:40am)\n \nFree and open to the public.\n \nSponsored by:\nCenter for Local\, State\, and Urban Policy (CLOSUP)\n \nCo-Sponsors: \nClimate Center\; Energy Institute\; Environmental Law Society\; LSA Political Science\; MEnergy\, Michigan’s Energy Law Association\; University of Michigan Program in the Environment (PitE) \n\nDescription: \nThis lecture will examine the ways in which electricity generated by renewable resources (like solar and wind) have been encouraged in the province of Ontario (Canada) during the past 20 years.  The focus will be upon both policies and politics.  With respect to the former\, the use of both price-based measures (using financial incentives) and quantity-based measures (reserving parts of the broader market for renewables) will be examined.  And with respect to the latter\, the impact of political context\, entrepreneurs and ideas will be investigated.  Finally\, the importance of multi-level governance – that is\, the impact of local communities’ desires to be empowered\, the influence of the Canadian federal government and the consequences of international trade law – will also be explored.\n\nAbout the speaker:\nIan Rowlands is a Professor in the Department of Environment and Resource Studies at the University of Waterloo (Ontario\, Canada).  He is also the Associate Dean\, Strategic Initiatives in the University’s Faculty of Environment.  Professor Rowlands has research interests in areas associated with sustainable energy policy\, with a particular interest in grid modernization. His research and consulting activities during the past two decades have led to collaborations with many community\, governmental and private sector partners\, including Ontario’s Independent Electricity System Operator\, Natural Resources Canada\, the International Energy Agency\, the United Kingdom Department for International Development and Sustainable Waterloo Region.  Before joining the University of Waterloo in 1998\, Prof. Rowlands held positions with the United Nations Collaborating Centre on Energy and Environment in Denmark and the London School of Economics and Political Science in the United Kingdom.  He earned his undergraduate and graduate degrees in Engineering and International Relations from the Universities of Toronto and London\, respectively.\n\nFor more information contact Bonnie Roberts at  fischerb@umich.edu or 734-647-4091\,   or visit our website at www.closup.umich.edu.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Mary Hambleton: Waiting for the Miracles
DESCRIPTION:Slusser Gallery\nSeptember 8 — October 3\, 2015\nOpening reception: 5 - 8 pm\, Tuesday September 15. Featuring gallery talk with curator Tiffany Bell and artist Heather Nicol at 6 pm.\n\nMary Hambleton’s art is about the wonder of life with its many complexities. In her paintings and many works on paper\, she embraced nature\, rendering forms that could be seen as either microscopic views of the smallest things or macroscopic vistas of the heavens. She combined organic looking forms and earth colors with the regularity of geometric stripes and bold\, primary color. And as an observer of everything around her\, she incorporated personal experience in her work in a way that is universally understood.\n\nThis exhibition concentrates on the work of the last decade of Hambleton’s career\, which ended with her death at the age of fifty-six in 2009. It includes both paintings and works on paper and represents the range of her motifs from stripes and dots to the use of printed images and body scans in both small intimate works and large all encompassing arrangements.  Hambleton was primarily an abstract painter who sometimes worked on individual paintings for years\, revising her colors\, surfaces and textures to create wonderfully complex\, layered paintings. After she was diagnosed with cancer in 2002\, she began integrating images scanned from books\, postcards\, maps\, and photographs in her art. In some of her last works\, she used images of her own PET scans and pictures of extinct animals such as the dodo bird or ivory-billed woodpecker to evoke particularly poignant meditations on life and death. \n\nThe show takes its title from one of the last paintings the artist made.  It suggests her constantly hopeful\, optimistic approach to life but also refers to her painting process - a long\, considered search for the visual wonders that make color and marks become paintings that transcend their material bounds.\n\nMary Hambleton attended the San Francisco Art Institute. She lived in New York City for most of her life and exhibited her work there and across the country. She taught at Parsons the New School for Design and Rhode Island School of Design. She was the recipient of two Pollock-Krasner grants\, an Adolph and Esther Gottlieb Foundation Grant\, and a John Simon Guggenheim Memorial Foundation Fellowship. \n\nMary Hambleton: Waiting for the Miracles is curated by Tiffany Bell. She is an independent curator and writer\, currently working as editor of the Agnes Martin Catalogue Raisonne and co-curator of Agnes Martin\, a traveling retrospective at Tate Modern\, London\; going to Kunstsammlung Nordrhein-Westfalen\, Düsseldorf\; Los Angeles County Museum of Art\; and Solomon R. Guggenheim Museum\, New York.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:The Art of Tyree Guyton: A Thirty-Year Journey
DESCRIPTION:The Heidelberg Project is one of the largest\, best-known\, and longest-running site-specific art installations in the country. Occupying more than two blocks along Heidelberg Street on Detroit’s East Side\, the project has transformed its neighborhood\, covering abandoned houses\, the street\, and the surrounding area with collections of found objects and vividly rendered paintings.\n\nCelebrating its 30th anniversary in 2016\, the Heidelberg Project has been the life’s work of artist Tyree Guyton. Guyton grew up on Heidelberg Street\, and was encouraged by his housepainter grandfather to choose art as an alternative to drugs and guns. Guyton began the project with his family\, and with the help of neighborhood children\, they gathered discarded objects\, from toys and clothes to televisions and furniture. They painted abandoned houses on the street with bright housepaints and attached objects to the exteriors\, turning them into gigantic assemblage sculptures.\n\nMost of the houses have a defined theme. The Baby Doll House (now destroyed) was covered from roof to foundation with discarded toy dolls in various states of repair. Similarly\, the Clock House has painted renditions of clocks covering its exterior. The project’s lively and unexpected juxtapositions of objects\, words\, colors\, and symbols create a strange and wonderful immersive world.\n\nThe 30-year anniversary of the Heidelberg Project is a moment for Guyton\, and his audience\, to reflect on what his work has meant to the cultural life of Detroit and beyond. Guyton has created two new works specifically for this exhibition\, one in the studio and one in the project. How Much for the City\, a mixed-media sculpture\, makes reference to his long-standing struggles with city government. On Heidelberg Street\, he is building a full-scale house\; it will rise on the foundation of a house destroyed by arson. The process of its construction can be viewed on the Heidelberg Television monitor in the gallery. The Art of Tyree Guyton will explore the artist’s involvement with the project through the decades\, and also feature a selection of prints and drawings from his more recent studio work.\n\nLead support for this exhibition is provided by the Michigan Council for Arts and Cultural Affairs and the National Endowment for the Arts\, the Andy Warhol Foundation for the Visual Arts\, and Lisa Applebaum. Additional generous support is provided by the University of Michigan Taubman College of Architecture and Urban Planning and School of Social Work.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:What Time Is It? Tyree Guyton\, New Work
DESCRIPTION:The fifteen works of art presented in “What Time Is It?” emerge from Guyton's well-known Heidelberg Project\, a dynamic outdoor intervention covering two city blocks in the Paradise Valley neighborhood of southeast Detroit. It is work that addresses the difficult social and economic challenges that the citizens of Detroit have faced over the last fifty years. This exhibit marks a key moment of transition for Guyton as he shifts his attention from the Heidelberg Project\, to which he has devoted the last thirty years\, to the studio.

SUMMARY:Performance:The Japanese Way of Tea (cha no yu)
DESCRIPTION:Students in the course \"Geisha: Arts\, History and Politics\" have sponsored this demonstration of the Way of Tea by Japanese Tea Masters.\n\nCenturies ago\, a simple practice of serving & being served a cup of tea was elevated to the Way of Tea (sadō) – a lifelong pursuit of disciplined esthetic\, skills\, knowledge of the arts\, and hospitality centering around the communal sharing of tea.\n\nThis transformed every aspect of tea practitioner's life. Indeed\, tea practitioners are known\, even today\, for their distinctive lifestyle reflecting their avowed adherence to those ancient values. Values that\, unexpectedly\, possess universal appeal today.\n\nDemonstrators:\nHostess: Yoko Watanabe\, Tea Master (Sekishu Style)\nMain Guest: Tomoyo Koehler\, Tea Master (Omote Style)\nSecond Guest/Narrator: Yasuo Watanabe (Sekishu Style)

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:Where the Light Gets In: Writing From the Margin
DESCRIPTION:Sharing stories – narrating our own and listening to others’ – is intrinsic to our humanity. Stories hold great power\, yet the art of storytelling (and story-receiving) requires humility\, vulnerability\, recognition of our limits. How do our own experiences of living on the margin enhance our ability to connect?\n\nLeah Hager Cohen is the author of five novels and five works of non-fiction. Among the honors she has received are nominations for the Orange Prize\, the Dayton Literary Peace Prize and the IMPAC Dublin Literary Award. Her novel The Grief of Others was adapted into a film of the same name\, which had its international premiere at the 2015 Cannes Film Festival. She has been a frequent contributor to the New York Times Book Review and is the Barrett Professor of Creative Writing at the College of the Holy Cross in Worcester\, Massachusetts.\n\nPresented by IRWG\, the Helen Zell Creative Writing Program\, the Department of English\, UM Initiative on Disability Studies\, the University Library\, the Institute for the Humanities\, and the UM Council for Disability Concerns.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:State of Exception at ArtPrize
DESCRIPTION:State of Exception debuted at the Institute for the Humanities gallery in 2013. This year\, we've submitted it in the ArtPrize competition in Grand Rapids\, MI.\n\nAbout State of Exception\n\nThis exhibition presents traces of the human experience--backpacks\, water bottles\, border patrol restrains\, and other objects left behind in the desert by undocumented migrants on their journey into the U.S. This in combination with video shot by Richard Barnes on location along the U.S./Mexico border comprises State of Exception\, the first major curation of the work of U-M anthropologist Jason De León’s Undocumented Migration project. This collaboration between artist/photographer Richard Barnes\, De León\, and curator Amanda Krugliak considers the complexity and ambiguity of the found objects and what they may or may not reveal in terms of transition\, human experience\, culture\, violence\, and accountability. Read more about Jason De León\, Richard Barnes\, and Amanda Krugliak. \n\nAbout ArtPrize\n\nArtPrize is a radically open\, independently organized international art competition and a 501(c)(3) non-profit organization.\n\nFor 19 days\, three square miles of downtown Grand Rapids\, Michigan\, become an open playing field where anyone can find a voice in the conversation about what is art and why it matters. Art from around the world pops up in every inch of downtown\, and it’s all free and open to the public.\n\nIt’s unorthodox\, highly disruptive\, and undeniably intriguing to the art world and the public alike.

SUMMARY:Reception / Open House:Tauber Leadership Speaker Series | Rich Sheridan
DESCRIPTION:Short Bio: From kid programmer in 1971 to Forbes cover story in 2003\, Joy\, Inc. author Richard Sheridan (U-M grad BS Computer Science '80\, MS Computer Engineering '82) has never shied from challenges\, opportunities nor the limelight. While his focus has always been around technology\, his passion is actually process\, teamwork and organizational design\, with one inordinately popular goal: the Business Value of Joy! Sheridan is an avid reader and historian\, and his software design and development team at Menlo Innovations didn't invent a new culture\, but copied an old one ... Edison's Menlo Park New Jersey lab. Henry Ford's recreation of the Menlo Park Lab in Greenfield Village was a childhood inspiration! Some call it agile\, some call it lean … Sheridan and his team call it joyful. And it produces results\, business and otherwise. Five Inc. magazine revenue growth awards\, invites to the White House\, speaking engagements around the nation\, numerous articles and culture awards and so much interest they are doing a tour a day of the Menlo Software Factory™.
