SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:The Metropolitan Miniature: Theory and Literary Practice
DESCRIPTION:Metropolitan miniatures are short prose texts written for newspaper feuilletons by major French\, German\, and Austrian modernists. In their very form\, they reect the eeting experiences of modern city life in the late 19th and early 20th century.\nAkin to the snapshot and the film strip\, the miniature takes its cue from the visual media\, but then reconstitutes literature's Eigensinn vis-à-vis the threat to literature\nemanating from photography and film. Drawing on Critical Theory\, the lecture will give a conceptual framework for reading this major body of modernist literary experimention which has been hiding in plain sight. Kafka and Musil will exemplify this new form which was not a form.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:CMENAS Special Event: This\, too\, is Iran
DESCRIPTION:In May 2015\, Sally Bjork\, photographer at the U-M Department of the History of Art’s Visual Resources Collections\, took part in a 16-day tour through major cities and regions of Iran led by U-M Professor of Near Eastern and Classical Art and Archaeology\, Margaret Cool Root\, for the Archaeological Institute of America. Bjork’s participation was made possible by monies from the Freer Fund of the Department of the History of Art.  Her charge was to photograph sites\, monuments\, and artworks as well as urban and rural scenes\, landscapes\, people\, and life textures that can be used for research and teaching amongst numerous disciplines. The result is some 8\,000 images that celebrate life\, vibrancy\, and color\, as well as Iranian traditions of art and design stretching back through the centuries.  The collection will ultimately be available to the University and beyond via the U-M Digital Library.  \n\nBjork has selected various images from this extensive collection to create an exhibit that offers a broadened perspective on Iran for an American audience. These photographs speak not of governments\, but of the culture\, heritage\, and humanity of a country and its diverse peoples. \n\nOrganized by the Center for Middle Eastern and North African Studies\, this exhibition is made possible by the Department of Anthropology\, the Department of Comparative Literature\, the Department of the History of Art (Freer Fund)\, the Department of Near Eastern Studies\, and the University of Michigan Detroit Center. Additional support has been provided by an anonymous donor’s fund for the study of Iranian art.\n\nPhoto Exhibit\nOctober 27-November 13\, 2015 • 8:00 am - 6:00 pm\nInternational Institute Gallery (1st Floor)\, 1080 S.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Exhibit: Stories of Mothers Lost
DESCRIPTION:Every minute of every day\, a woman dies of pregnancy related complications. Stories of Mothers Lost\, an exhibit of handmade quilts from around the world now on display in Lane Hall\, memorializes some of these women.\n\nThe exhibit was initiated by the White Ribbon Alliance for Safe Motherhood (WRA)\, a non-profit membership based organization\, whose goal is to reduce rates of maternal and child mortality. The initiative to obtain these stories was made possible by a United Nations Population Fund grant to the WRA. Following a global call\, there was an overwhelming response of 120 panels from 46 organizations. Stories of Mothers Lost -  a collection of internationally sourced\, hand crafted panels commemorating mothers lost – allows families to express grief and also plays a powerful role as a mechanism for advocacy and communication on an issue that transcends country borders and impacts us all.  \n\nStories of Mothers Lost is supplied by the UM Department of Obstetrics and Gynecology and its Program in Sexual Rights and Reproductive Justice. The exhibit is hosted by the Women’s Studies Department and the Institute for Research on Women and Gender.\n\nStories of Mothers Lost is in Lane Hall through December 11\, 2015.

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:\"Sonya Clark\" Installation
DESCRIPTION:In \"Sonya Clark\,\" artist and 2014 ArtPrize-winner Sonya Clark exhibits existing and new work which considers the relationship between object and story\, including a new work that incorporates personal stories about hair derived from student engagement at the University of Michigan and from campuses nationwide.\n\nArtist Statement:\n\nI use craft and materials to investigate identity. Simple objects become cultural interfaces. Through them I navigate accord and discord. When trying to unravel complex issues\, I am instinctively drawn to things that connect to my personal narrative as a point of a departure: a comb\, a piece of paper\, or a strand of hair. Charged with agency\, objects have the mysterious ability to reflect or absorb us.  I find my image\, my personal story\, in an object. But it is also the object’s ability to act as a rhizome\, the multiple ways in which it can be discovered or read by a wide audience\, that draws me in. To sustain my practice\, I milk the object\, its potential\, its image\, and its materiality. I manipulate the object in a formal manner to engage the viewer in conversation about collective meaning. Can systematically folded paper effectively use light and shadow in the same manner as an elaborately dyed cloth?  What is the connection between color studies\, combs\, and tapestries?  Can a strand of hair tell a life story? I trust that my stories\, your stories\, our stories are held in the object. In this way\, the everyday “thing” becomes a lens through which we may better see one another.  A visual vocabulary derived from object and image forms a language ranging from the vernacular to the political to the poetic.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Common Room: An EMU/Stamps Faculty Exhibition
DESCRIPTION:The exhibition Common Room finds connections between a selection of artists from the art department faculties of Eastern Michigan University and the Stamps School of Art and Design. Working alongside Curator Laura Mott\, student curatorial interns from both universities conducted research on the artwork of all full-time faculty. The premise of the exhibition was created based on the discovery of common interests between many artists into other fields of study—biology\, sociology\, psychology\, economy\, technology\, ecology\, politics\, and social justice. The artworks in the exhibition incorporate knowledge and/or aesthetics from these disciplines\, which are as diverse as the academic offerings on the respective campuses.\n\nThe theme is complemented by the exhibition design. Slusser Gallery at Stamps School of Art and Design has been divided and reimagined as other rooms: The Living Room\, The Greenhouse\, The Laboratory\, The Annex. Each room contains artworks that could conceivably or conceptually exist within these spaces.  The exhibition speaks to artistic research into expanded fields of inquiry\, and furthermore\, how art contributes to larger questions about contemporary life and society.\n\nCurated by Laura Mott\, Curator of Contemporary Art and Design at Cranbrook Art Museum\, with curatorial interns Francesca Kielb (UofM)\, Lauren Mleczko (EMU)\, and Emily Weir (EMU).\n\nExhibition Dates: October 21 - November 14\, 2015\nReception: Friday\, November 6\, 6-9 pm\nSlusser Gallery\, 1st Floor Art & Architecture Building\nGallery Hours: Monday through Friday: 9 am - 5 pm\, Saturday: 12 - 5 pm. \nClosed Sundays and Holidays.

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: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:Lecture / Discussion:Driving Detroit: The Quest for Respect in the Motor City
DESCRIPTION:The book Driving Detroit is the basis for Dr. Galster’s talk.  The book’s thesis is that metropolitan Detroit can be understood as two dimensions of tensions: capital vs. labor\, blacks vs. whites.  It documents the region’s geo-political environment\, evolving economic and population patterns and longstanding inter-class and inter-racial struggles.  Driving Detroit draws upon psychological principles of human fulfilment to diagnose the region’s ills.  It focuses on the frustrations generated by the extreme adaptations that distinguish the region: distrust\, scapegoating\, identity politics\, segregation\, unionization and jurisdictional fragmentation.  Unfortunately\, these individually rational adaptations have proven dysfunctional for the Metro Detroit area.\n\nGeorge Galster is a Distinguished Professor and Clarence Hilberry Professor of Urban Affairs at Wayne State University.  He came to Wayne State in 1996.  Before this time\, he had served as Director of Housing Research at the Urban Institute.  Professor Galster has over a hundred varied publications on a wide range of urban policy issues\, including eight books.  His frequent focus has been on the intersection of neighborhoods\, race and housing patterns.\n\nThis is the first of a six-lecture series entitled  “Detroit: Complex Past\, Promising Present\, Uncertain Future.\"

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: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:Lecture / Discussion:Datamediation: WikiLeaks\, Citizenfour\, and the Affectivity of Exposure
DESCRIPTION:In 2010\, Julian Assange and WikiLeaks made headlines with major internet releases of classified information\, mainly from US government sources. Three years later Edward Snowden was declared a traitor when\, with the help of three journalists\, he exposed thousands of classified NSA documents.  These exposures of classified data have been lauded by open-access advocates and excoriated by US government officials. Discussion of these data dumps has largely focused on the question of their content\, or on the legitimacy of releasing confidential information to the globally networked public.  In this talk I pursue a different tack\, taking up the formal and affective qualities of their releases\, the way they function as instances of what I call “datamediation.”  Their impact\, I argue\, derives as much from their perpetuation of an affectivity of exposure as from the content of what they reveal.  \n \nGrusin is a leading figure in new media studies. He has written both theoretically and interpretively about the relations between new media and old\, most recently in Critical Inquiry (“Radical Mediation\,” Fall\, 2015)\; previous works include Premediation: Affect and Media After 9/11 (2010) and\, with co-author Jay David Bolter\, Remediation: Understanding New Media (2000).

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:EEB Thursday Seminar Speaker Series
DESCRIPTION:Principles of Virus-Microbe Dynamics: From Ecology to Evolution and Back Again.  Viruses are ubiquitous in the environment and can function like microbial predators\, regulating the density and diversity of microbes present in a community. However\, efforts to understand the dynamics of complex virus-microbe communities remain in their infancy. In this talk\, I present examples of the interplay between evolutionary and ecological dynamics arising due to virus-microbe interactions. I begin by introducing canonical models of virus-microbe population dynamics in the context of observed oscillations of E. coli and associated phage.  I then present a series of examples in which novel features observed in time series data arising from phage interactions with E. coli and V. cholerae can be understood when considering both population and evolutionary dynamics together.  I conclude by presenting our recent efforts to extend the results of laboratory experiments to an environmental context\, with significantly higher diversity of both viruses and microbes. Despite this increase in diversity\, I show how network theoretic methods can reveal common principles underlying the dynamic coexistence of complex virus and host communities.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:The Gerald F. Else Lecture in the Humanities
DESCRIPTION:This lecture will first survey the contexts for and styles of female music-making in classical Greece\, and then go on to explore some key literary texts and images that reveal the Greek habit of imagining music as being originally and/or intrinsically feminine.  This exploration will include discussion of such figures as the Muses\, the Sirens\, numerous mythical female victims of loss and/or male aggression who are transformed into lamenting song-birds\, and two accounts of the invention of musical instruments (the lyre\, and the aulos-pipes). The lecture will conclude with a consideration of some \"queer\" elements in Greek musical culture.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:Aby Warburg\, the Warburg Library\, and a Movement of Ideas
DESCRIPTION:Today the fragmentary literary corpus of Aby Warburg (1866-1929) is the object of sustained critical attention: the German Jewish art and cultural historian presciently promoted a mode of cultural study giving equal weight to the “read” image and the interpreted text. This talk focuses on Warburg as a critic of disciplinary structures and the creator of an enduring model of collaborative work across the humanities. It follows the early life of the movement that he set in motion and introduces the labyrinthine library he created to serve collaborators as a humanistic “laboratory”\; this library\, which was saved from the Nazis in 1933\, when members of Warburg’s circle negotiated its transfer to London\, continues to function today as the Warburg Institute.

SUMMARY:Other:Louise Glück in Conversation with Linda Gregerson
DESCRIPTION:Louise Glück was born in New York City on April 22\, 1943\, and grew up on Long Island. She is the author of numerous books of poetry\, most recently\, Faithful and Virtuous Night (Farrar\, Straus\, and Giroux\, 2014)\, which won the 2014 National Book Award in Poetry\; Poems 1962-2012 (Farrar\, Straus\, and Giroux\, 2012)\; A Village Life: Poems (Farrar\, Straus\, and Giroux\, 2009)\; Averno (Farrar\, Straus\, and Giroux\, 2006)\, a finalist for the 2006 National Book Award in Poetry\; The Seven Ages (Ecco Press\, 2001)\; and Vita Nova (Ecco Press\, 1999)\, winner of Boston Book Review’s Bingham Poetry Prize and The New Yorker’s Book Award in Poetry. In 2004\, Sarabande Books released her six-part poem “October” as a chapbook.\n\nHer other books include Meadowlands (Ecco Press\, 1996)\; The Wild Iris (Ecco Press\, 1992)\, which received the Pulitzer Prize and the Poetry Society of America’s William Carlos Williams Award\; Ararat (Ecco Press\, 1990)\, for which she received the Library of Congress’s Rebekah Johnson Bobbitt National Prize for Poetry\; and The Triumph of Achilles (Ecco Press\, 1985)\, which received the National Book Critics Circle Award\, the Boston Globe Literary Press Award\, and the Poetry Society of America’s Melville Kane Award.\n\nIn a review in The New Republic\, the critic Helen Vendler wrote: “Louise Glück is a poet of strong and haunting presence. Her poems\, published in a series of memorable books over the last twenty years\, have achieved the unusual distinction of being neither ‘confessional’ nor ‘intellectual’ in the usual senses of those words.”\n\nGlück has also published a collection of essays\, Proofs and Theories: Essays on Poetry (Ecco Press\, 1994)\, which won the PEN/Martha Albrand Award for Nonfiction. Her honors include the Bollingen Prize in Poetry\, the Lannan Literary Award for Poetry\, a Sara Teasdale Memorial Prize\, the MIT Anniversary Medal and fellowships from the Guggenheim and Rockefeller Foundations\, and from the National Endowment for the Arts.\n\nIn 1999\, Glück was elected a Chancellor of the Academy of American Poets. In the fall of 2003\, she was appointed as the Library of Congress’s twelfth poet laureate consultant in poetry. She served as judge of the Yale Series of Younger Poets from 2003 to 2010.\n\nIn 2008\, Glück was selected to receive the Wallace Stevens Award for mastery in the art of poetry. Her collection\, Poems 1962-2012\, was awarded the 2013 Los Angeles Times Book Prize.\n\nShe is a writer-in-residence at Yale University.

SUMMARY:Performance:Milk Carton Kids
DESCRIPTION:Grammy-nominated harmony duo The Milk Carton Kids are touring in support  of the May 19\, 2015 release of their third album\, Monterey. A refreshing alternative to the foot-stomping grandeur of the so-called “folk revival\,” an understated virtuosity defines The Milk Carton Kids and their new album. The two years since the release of their last album\, The Ash & Clay\, have been significant ones for the group. In addition to a Grammy nomination for Best Folk Album\, The Milk Carton Kids won Duo/Group of the Year at the Americana Music Awards in 2014. Their featured performances and interviews in T Bone Burnett & the Coen Brothers' concert documentary\, \"Another Day/Another Time\,” brought the band its widest audience and their 55-city North American tour last year sold out months in advance. Cultural purveyors from Garrison Keillor to T Bone Burnett to Billy Bragg have hailed the duo’s importance among a group of new folk bands\, both expanding and contradicting the rich tradition that precedes them. Yet while some of the band’s many accolades reference a specific genre\, the duo quickly transcends those tags with clear inflections of jazz\, classical\, even the dark lyricism of modern “alternative.\" This past year\, The Milk Carton Kids were asked to pay tribute to Johnny Cash and Emmylou Harris — Cash on the Joe Henry-produced remake of “Bitter Tears\,” and Harris with their standing ovation performance at the tribute concert “The Life & Songs of Emmylou Harris\,” among luminaries including Kris Kristofferson\, Mavis Staples\, Alison Kraus\, Iron & Wine\, and Harris herself. If Cash and Harris taught us that American music is meant to be taken at its expansive word\, without confines or borders\, The Milk Carton Kids appear to have taken the lesson to heart. Songwriter Anaïs Mitchell opens!
