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.

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: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:Exhibition:Come as You Are: Art of the 1990s
DESCRIPTION:Come as You Are: Art of the 1990s\, the first major museum survey to examine the art of this pivotal decade in its historical context\, showcases over 64 works by 46 artists born or practicing in the United States. The exhibition\, whose title references the 1992 Nirvana song (considered by many an anthem for the decade)\, focuses on three principal themes—debates over “identity politics\,” the digital revolution\, and globalization—and explores a range of geopolitical milestones and social issues through the perspective of artists working at that time. The exhibition also illustrates the diverse ways in which the developments of the 1990s redefined contemporary approaches to artistic practice and\, in the words of exhibition curator Alexandra Schwartz\, “writes a history of the ’90s through the lens of the visual arts.”\n\nCome as You Are looks at the dramatic changes in the art world itself\, including the ongoing culture wars\; issues of artistic freedom and censorship\; the impact of new media and the emergence of video\, sound\, and digital art\; the expansion of the global art market\; and the explosion of art fairs and biennials. It also investigates the art world’s increasing heterogeneity as artists of color\, women artists\, and LGBT artists attained increased prominence. Artists include Doug Aitken\, Felix Gonzalez-Torres\, Glenn Ligon\, Julie Mehretu\, Prema Murthy\, Shirin Neshat\, Catherine Opie\, Gabriel Orozco\, Diana Thater\, Rirkrit Tiravanija\, and Kara Walker in a wide range of works including installations\, paintings\, sculptures\, drawings\, prints\, photography\, video\, and digital art.\n\nCome as You Are: Art of the 1990s is organized by the Montclair Art Museum and curated by Alexandra Schwartz\, curator of contemporary art\, with Kimberly Siino\, curatorial assistant. This exhibition is made possible with generous support from The Andy Warhol Foundation for the Visual Arts.\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 support is provided by Samantha and Ross Partrich\, Andrea and Joel Brown\, the University of Michigan CEW Frances and Sydney Lewis Visiting Leaders Fund\, Department of the History of Art\, Residential College\, and Department of American Culture.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:Phondi: San Duanmu on \"Automatic Transcription of Tones\"
DESCRIPTION:San Duanmu will present in Phondi today. The title and abstract of his presentation are given below.\n\nAutomatic Transcription of Tones\n\nIn this talk\, I describe a project of ours which aims to develop a system to automatically transcribe phonetic tones. I first explain the importance of the project. Then I describe some well-known difficulties\, such as the discrepancy between visual contours of F0 and perceived tone types. Next I describe our approach\, which distinguishes three levels of transcription: (i) the underlying tones\, (ii) the perceived phonetic tones (‘allo-tones’)\, and (iii) measured F0 contours. Our main task is to relate (iii) to (ii) by making appropriate adjustments\, based on the context of a tone (e.g. types of surrounding consonants\, stress level\, and local F0 level). The relation between (i) and (ii) will reveal allo-tonic rules of a language\, which will be richer than previously described.

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:Lecture / Discussion:Sephardic Aesthetics and the Ashkenazic Imagination
DESCRIPTION:Focusing on the period spanning the late eighteenth to the late nineteenth century\, this talk explores the special place German-Jewish culture accorded medieval Spanish Jewry.  In a broad array of genres\, a portrait emerged that promoted an image of Sephardim as attractive\, morally and intellectually superior\, and worthy of emulation while the culture and physical appearance of Ashkenazic Jewry was most frequently depicted as regrettable and in need of radical correction.  The superiority of the former was attributed to the tolerance of the Islamic environment in which they lived while conversely\, the supposed inferiority of Ashkenazic culture was portrayed as being a consequence of Christian persecution.  Claims about the superiority of Sephardic aesthetics became a constitutive element of modern German-Jewish self-fashioning\, one goal of which was to make German Jewry appear as the most worthy successors to the Jews of Golden Age Spain.\n\nJohn Efron is the Koret Professor of Jewish History at the University of California at Berkeley\, where specializes in the cultural and social history of German Jewry.  A native of Melbourne\, Australia\, he has a B.A. from Monash University\, did graduate work at the Hebrew University in Jerusalem\, took his M.A. at New York University and earned a Ph.D. at Columbia University.

SUMMARY:Performance:Kat Edmonson
DESCRIPTION:Kat Edmonson  grew up in Houston with a mother who introduced her to the Great American Songbook. Her self-released debut album \"Take To the Sky\" hit the top 20 on Billboard’s jazz charts\, adding enough juice that she found herself playing gigs with Willie Nelson and Lyle Lovett. A musical kinship with Lyle led to a high-profile duet on the Christmas classic “Baby\, It’s Cold Outside” which the pair performed together on tour as well as on \"The Tonight Show with Jay Leno.\" This set the stage for \"Way Down Low\,\" her second record and first to include her original material. The album hit number one on the iTunes jazz chart. After selling out club shows in New York\, Boston\, Houston\, and Los Angeles\, Edmonson hit the road last fall supporting fellow Austin musician Gary Clark Jr. and later\, Chris Isaak. \"I think she’s great\,\" says Lyle. \"She’s got such an authentic\, almost old-time jazz quality about her.\" Like the famous Texan Norah Jones\, Kat is finding her way between jazz and contemporary songwriting. She comes to Michigan with a new release\, \"The Big Picture.\" Singer-songwriter Milton opens.
