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.

DESCRIPTION:Returning Gifts of Art exhibiting artist Mary Cody designs colorful jewelry with a subtle message meant to inspire creativity and hope. She freely combines tiny 24 kt gold\, palladium and glass beads in her original weavings by \"picking up the pieces\,\" a look that came by accident after costly beads scattered across the floor. Cody sees her work as representing the lessons in our lives – how unforeseen events are often prior to beautiful blessings. 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:Exhibition:Passionate Curiosities: Collecting in Egypt & the Near East\, 1880s–1950s
DESCRIPTION:What circumstances formed the artifact-biographies of the collected objects we see in museum display cases? Passionate Curiosities\, curated by Margaret Root\, invites visitors to meet some of the remarkable people—from eminent scientists to missionaries\, from consuls to entrepreneurs\, from scholars to swash-buckling adventurers—who forged the Egyptian and Near Eastern collections of the Kelsey Museum between the 1880s and the 1950s. \n\nThe featured notables all have ties to the State of Michigan and often to the University itself. They include Samuel A. Goudsmit\, co-discoverer of the spin of the electron in 1925\; Harriet Conner\, an unsung missionary in 1880s Cairo\; Henry Gillman\, American consul in Jerusalem in the 1880s\; Dr. David Askren\, an American physician living in Egypt who facilitated massive purchases for Professor Francis W. Kelsey\; and A. M. Todd of Kalamazoo\, a chemist\, global entrepreneur\, and utopian thinker who marketed his distilled mint products across the world at the turn of the last century. One famous dealer these figures worked with was the Lion of Cairo\, Maurice Nahman.\n\nOn view will be some rarely displayed artifacts acquired through the efforts of these collectors\, including large decorated Coptic tunics from Egypt and a volume from the Kelsey’s rare complete edition of the Napoleonic Description de l'Égypte. Wonderful vintage photographs help open up the fascinating backstories of some of the Museum’s most popular artifacts. Come discover who brought the Kelsey’s child mummy home from Egypt in the 1880s and who gave us the coffin of Djehutymose in 1906!

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Rocks\, Paper\, Memory: Wendy Artin’s Watercolor Paintings of Ancient Sculptures
DESCRIPTION:An American artist who lives in Rome\, Wendy Artin has been working for over a decade on a series of watercolor paintings of ancient Greek and Roman sculptures and related subjects. This exhibition will feature a selection of her paintings\, not only images of ancient sculptures and landscapes but also contemporary life studies. The paintings will be set in dialogue with objects drawn from the Kelsey's collections\, including works of Greek art inspired by Egyptian precedents and examples of the same figure types seen in Artin's work (such as Aphrodite rising from the sea).\n\nWendy Artin is one of a long line of artists who draw inspiration from antiquity. Indeed\, this tradition has very ancient precedents\, such as the Roman practice of making marble “copies” of famous Greek bronze statues. Artin’s visually stunning paintings offer fresh and arresting ways of looking at ancient sculptures and buildings.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Jem Cohen
DESCRIPTION:The title of this multi-format photography and video installation by New York filmmaker Jem Cohen comes from the artist’s own characterization of his practice.\n	As he explains\, “The unifying core of my work stems from encountering the world as it unfolds. Whether the project is long- or short-term\, moving image or still photography\, single pictures\, multiple projections\, or an installation\, it is through close observation\, careful listening\, and an embrace of chance that I establish the bedrock. . . . Regardless of the tools and the form\, the project is . . . life drawing.”\n	\nThe dual-gallery presentation of Life Drawing at UMMA underscores Cohen’s use of disparate media that\, rooted in a shared set of concerns and working methods\, organically coalesce into a broader body of work.\n	We Have an Anchor\, on view in the Media Gallery\, is a single-channel video projection that incorporates composited 16mm\, Super 8\, and HD imagery. An environmental portrait of Nova Scotia\, it takes its departure point from a live performance with multiple projections where Cohen collaborated with an ensemble of musicians to make what has been described as a cinematic love letter to Nova Scotia's Cape Breton. Footage of the island\, gathered over 10 years\, is interspersed with texts ranging from poems to local folklore\, buoyed by both environmental sounds and an original score written and performed by members from a diverse group of bands\, including Godspeed You! Black Emperor\, Dirty Three\, Fugazi\, White Magic\, Silver Mt. Zion\, and The Quavers.\n	\nIn the Photography Gallery\, more than 25 still photographs\, again gathered over a long period in a disappearing analog format (in this case\, Polaroid film)\, are subtly married to digital technology. The images\, some urban and some domestic\, are from a variety of locations ranging from New York to Tangier. With both the video and the photographs Cohen uses a strategy of free wandering conjoined with careful documentation in order to unearth and celebrate hidden\, seemingly haunted geographies and their human (and animal) inhabitants.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Soviet Constructivist Posters
DESCRIPTION:During the 1920s the Soviet Union emerged on the world stage. The first decade was full of hope for a new social order that would reject the values and traditions of Tsarist rule. Centered in Moscow\, a group of young artists\, spearheaded in part by Vladimir (1899-1982) and Georgy Stenberg (1900-1933)\, championed an art that promoted the egalitarian ideals of the New Order and contributed to the growth of the Soviet Union. Known as the Constructivists\, they advocated for utilitarian art that was easily accessible and spoke to the masses. Among their most provocative and visionary works were posters advertising Soviet films.\n\n	UMMA’s exhibition\, Soviet Constructivist Posters: Branding the New Order features a selection of posters by the Stenbergs and other Constructivists for some of early cinema’s most inventive films including\, Sergei Eisenstein’sOctober and Dziga Vertov’s Man with a Movie Camera.\n\n	Using dynamic compositions\, bold colors\, and emblematic images\, these posters announced that the Soviet Union was a progressive nation that could propel society into a utopian future. Their revolutionary aesthetic became associated with the workers’ movement and helped to shape how it was understood both at home and abroad. Though Constructivism went out of favor in the 1930s with the rise of Joseph Stalin (1878–1953)\, Constructivist designs continued to have an influence abroad. Today\, their legacy can be seen in advertisements and other promotional materials made for the public eye.\n\n	Lead support for this exhibition is provided by the University of Michigan Weiser Center for Emerging Democracies and the Center for Russian\, East European\, and Eurasian Studies.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:Applied Physics Seminar: \"Nanoscale Strain Engineering in Nitride Semiconductors and Photonic Applications\"
DESCRIPTION:Gallium nitride (GaN) and its related alloys are technologically important for applications in short-wavelength LEDs\, lasers\, photodetectors\, and power electronics. GaN is a piezoelectric material. As a result\, when it is strained\, a strong built-in electric field is generated which has profound impacts on its applications in LEDs and lasers. In these devices\, strained InGaN heterostructures are routinely employed as the light-emitting active region. The strain induced built-in electric field can significantly lower the emitter efficiency\, cause efficiency droop and undesirable wavelength drift. Nanowires can effectively relax the strain and nanowire LEDs have attracted substantial interests in recent years. In this work\, we showed that by controlling and engineering the strain in GaN nanowires\, not only can one realize benefits from strain relaxation\, new degrees of control can be obtained which have potential applications for display\, communication\, and sensing. In this talk\, I will discuss two of these applications: (1) on-demand single photon sources with highly pure and programmable polarization states\; (2) monolithically integrated multi-color light emitter chips.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:Creating Contemporary Chinese Ballet
DESCRIPTION:What are the possibilities for experimental ballet in China today? How does the medium of dance allow artists to deconstruct and recreate literary classics? Based on more than six decades of experience in China's ballet world\, Professor Xiao Suhua will discuss his views on contemporary ballet in China past and present. He will also introduce and discuss two of his own recent experimental dance adaptations of Chinese literary classics\, including Legend of the White Snake and Dream of Red Mansions. A brief question and answer session will follow.\n\nXiao Suhua (肖苏华) ranks among China’s foremost choreographers and teachers of contemporary dance. Born in Moscow in 1937 to agents of China’s underground Communist Party\, he trained in Soviet dance academies and returned to newly-established Communist China after the 1949 revolution. Prof. Xiao began his career as a conduit for Beijing-Moscow cultural exchanges\, a role lasting into the 1960s. He survived persecution during the Cultural Revolution to emerge as one of China’s most influential advocates of contemporary dance. His choreography brings together Soviet dramatic and symphonic dance idioms with traditional Chinese tales like Dream of the Red Chamber and White Snake. Today\, Prof. Xiao maintains close creative relationships with global dance institutions including the Bolshoi Ballet\, traveling frequently and sitting on numerous juries in Asia and Europe. This will be his first lecture and workshop series in the United States\, offering a rare window into the contemporary arts culture of China and Russia\, and the history of Sino-Soviet cultural collaboration. Prof. Xiao is fluent in Russian and Mandarin.\n\nThis presentation is co-sponsored by the Lieberthal-Rogel Center for Chinese Studies at U-M.

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:Class / Instruction:Is Dieting and Weight Loss a Myth?
DESCRIPTION:The book \"Rethinking Thin\" is a lively and liberating challenge to the conventional wisdom about diets and weight loss. Author and New York Times science writer Gina Kolata shows that our society's obsession with dieting and weight loss is less about keeping trim and staying healthy than about money\, power\, trends and impossible ideals. It is a story of the place of diets in American society and a provocative critique of the weight loss industry. Mike Murray is a clinical psychologist. This class for those over 50 meets Oct 7 - 28. \nhttps://olli-umich.org/olli/index.php/member/ctlg/viewEventDetails/639

SUMMARY:Conference / Symposium:Beyond Obamacare: Life\, Death\, and Social Policy
DESCRIPTION:This event is free and open to the public with a reception to follow.\nThis event will be live webstreamed. \n\nAbout the book:\n\nHealth care spending in the United States today is approaching 20 percent of GDP\, yet levels of U.S. population health have been declining for decades relative to other wealthy—and even some developing—nations. How is it possible that the United States\, which spends more than any other nation on health care and insurance\, now has a population markedly less healthy than those of many other nations? Sociologist and public health expert James S. House analyzes this paradoxical crisis\, offering surprising new explanations for how and why the United States has fallen into this trap. In Beyond Obamacare\, House shows that health care reforms\, including the Affordable Care Act\, cannot resolve this crisis because they do not focus on the underlying causes for the nation’s poor health outcomes\, which are largely social\, economic\, environmental\, psychological\, and behavioral.\n\nHouse demonstrates that the problems of our broken health care and insurance system are interconnected with our large and growing social disparities in education\, income\, and other conditions of life and work. House calls for a complete reorientation of how we think about health. He concludes that we need to move away from our misguided and almost exclusive focus on biomedical determinants of health\, and to place more emphasis on addressing social\, economic\,and other inequalities.\n\nFor more information on Beyond Obamacare\, visit the publisher's website.\n\nFrom the author's bio:\n\nJames S. House is the Angus Campbell Distinguished University Professor Emeritus of Survey Research\, Public Policy and Sociology. His primary appointment is in the Survey Research Center\, the Institute for Social Research\, with a joint retention appointment in Sociology in addition to his primary academic appointment in Public Policy. His research has focused on the role of social and psychological factors in the etiology and course of health and illness\, including the role of psychosocial factors in understanding and alleviating social disparities in health and the way health changes with age. He has been elected to the American Academy of Arts and Sciences\, the Institute of Medicine\, and the National Academy of Sciences. At the Ford School he teaches courses in socioeconomic policy and health policy. In the last decade\, Jim co-edited Making Americans Healthier: Social and Economic Policy as Health Policy (2008\, with Bob Schoeni of the Ford School and others) and A Telescope on Society: Survey Research & Social Science at the University of Michigan and Beyond (2004\, with others). He received his BA in History from Haverford college\, his Ph.D. in Social Psychology from the University of Michigan\, and taught at Duke University before joining University of Michigan faculty in 1978 and the Ford School in January 2008.\n\nThis event is made possible through the generous support of the Gilbert S. Omenn and Martha A. Darling Health Policy Fund.\n\nFor more information go to: http://fordschool.umich.edu/events/2015/beyond-obamacare-life-death-and-social-policy

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:Nam Center Colloquium Series
DESCRIPTION:Speaker: Eugene Park\, Korea Foundation Associate Professor of History\, University of Pennsylvania\n\nAs the descendants of the Koryŏ dynasty (918–1392) supplanted by the Chosŏn dynasty (1392–1910)\, the Kaesŏng Wang negotiated a new sociopolitical terrain in early modern Korea. Once the Chosŏn state ended a bloody persecution (1394–1416) which virtually exterminated the Wangs\, the lucky survivors and their descendants performed state-sanctioned ancestor veneration ritual of sacrificial offering (pongsa) to Koryŏ kings. Moreover\, many passed the government service examinations\, entered officialdom\, commanded armies\, and constituted local elite lineages in various parts of Korea. The most privileged among the Wangs were no different from the general aristocracy (yangban) pursuing classical Chinese education and prescribing to Confucian moral norms such as the cardinal virtue of subject’s loyalty (ch’ung) to the ruler. All the same\, an emerging body of subversive narratives\, written and oral\, began expressing sympathy toward Koryŏ and its progeny as victims of Chosŏn. The Wangs themselves refrained from openly concurring until after the end of the Chosŏn dynasty.\n\nEugene Y. Park is Korea Foundation Associate Professor of History at the University of Pennsylvania. The author of \"Between Dreams and Reality: The Military Examination in Chosŏn Korea\, 1600–1894\" (Harvard University Asia Center\, 2007) and \"A Family of No Prominence: The Descendants of Pak Tokhwa and the Birth of Modern Korea\" (Stanford University Press\, 2014)\, Park received his B.A. from UCLA\, followed by M.A. and Ph.D. from Harvard University. Currently he is writing a monograph\, \"Progeny of Fallen Royals: Resurrection of the Kaesŏng Wang in Korea\,\" which examines positions occupied by the descendants of Koryŏ dynasty in Chosŏn and modern Korean politics and society. He is also editing\, with Yi Tae-Jin\, \"Peace in the East: An Chunggŭn and Asia in the Age of Empires\,\" and with George L. Kallander and Michael J. Pettid\, \"The Cambridge History of Korea\, Volume 3: The Chosŏn Dynasty\, 1392–1910.\"

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:Sociology and Colonialism in the British and French Empires\, 1940s-1960s: A Postcolonial History of Social Science since WWII
DESCRIPTION:Colonial research represented an important part of the renascent academic discipline of sociology after 1945 in Britain and France. This article begins by establishing the existence of networks of colonial sociologists and charting their size\, composition\, and relations to neighboring academic disciplines\, especially anthropology. A careful reconstruction of the two sociological fields finds that colonies became a key object\, terrain of investigation\, and employment site for sociologists\, engaging 33-55% of the British and French sociology fields between 1945 and 1960. Colonial developmentalism created a demand for new forms of social scientific expertise\, including Sociology. Sociologists became favored partners of colonial governments\, resulting in novel forms of applied sociology focused on urbanization\, detribalization\, labor migration\, industrialization\, poverty\, and resettlement. Colonial sociologists also made a number of theoretical\, methodological\, and empirical contributions that\, while largely forgotten\, shaped the subsequent discipline in unacknowledged ways and foreshadowed more recent work on race relations\, transnational and global history\, and “southern” and postcolonial theory.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:Translating Jewish Diaspora: The Poetry of Arthur Jacobs and Rosa Nevadovska
DESCRIPTION:How does the work of a recent Scottish-Jewish poet (Jacobs) relate to that of a Yiddish poet (Nevadovska)\, born in Bialystok\, who immigrated to the U.S. in 1928? Guest speaker Merle Lyn Bachman will present her investigations into the work and worlds of these two very different writers\, who are connected by the wandering and multiplicity that mark their poems\, as well as the sharp bite of diaspora. Translation creates another connection\, as both poets engaged in translating (from Hebrew and from English)\, and Bachman herself is translating selections from Nevadovska’s Yiddish poems.\n\nMerle Bachman is a poet\, a Yiddishist\, and an Associate Professor English at Spalding University\, where she also directs the undergraduate Creative Writing program. She is one of the National Yiddish Book Center’s Translation Fellows for 2015.  Her publications include the scholarly work\, Recovering ‘Yiddishland’: Threshold Moments in American Literature (Syracuse UP 2008) and several collections of poetry\, including Blood Party\, forthcoming from Shearsman Books later this year.  Her current projects include translating the selected poems of Rosa Nevadovska\, as well as researching the diaspora poetics of Scottish-Jewish poet\, A. C. Jacobs.

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:Performance:San\, Emily & Jacob
DESCRIPTION:The trio of San\, Emily and Jacob formed in 2013\, but they have a long history together. Father and daughter San & Emily Slomovits have been playing music together since Emily was a young child. San\, along with his brother Laz\, as the duo Gemini\, have been a highly popular folk act throughout Michigan and the United States since 1973\, and Emily began joining them on stage when she was just eight years old. Jacob Warren and Emily have known each other since kindergarten and have played music together in many settings throughout their school years. Emily is an accomplished violinist\, having studied classical violin for more than a decade\, and has also developed a lovely and unique singing style. Jacob Warren is an up-and-coming young bassist in both the folk and classical scenes. San\, Emily and Jacob’s concerts feature a range of traditional and contemporary folk\, jazz and classical music\, and Broadway show tunes and more. Their beautifully blended harmony vocals and exciting instrumental work breathe new life into this wide variety of music\, and audiences thrill to their warmth\, humor and ease on stage.
