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.

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: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:Exhibition On-View: Opera In Complete
DESCRIPTION:The University of Michigan's Taubman College of Architecture and Urban Planning presents...\"Opera In Complete: The Total Work of Art Dream House\,\" an exhibition by John McMurrough's thesis year graduate studio.\n\nOver the course of December 2015\, participants in the ARCH 672\, \"Opera In Complete\" studio will be using the Taubman College gallery as a sound stage to finish their semester’s work on a design opera entitled \"The Total Work of Art Dream House.\" Loosely based on Adolf Loos' short story \"The Poor Little Rich Man\,\" these projects operate as expressions of design in the space between control and happenstance\, reality and simulation.\n\nEver since the German opera composer Richard Wagner proposed the idea of the total work of art (Gesamtkunstwerk)\, architects have been enthralled by the idea. In part such efforts test ideas of materials and assemblage\, but they operate more so to extend the ideal of design and entail a shift of emphasis from the scope of a singular building to encompass a variety of scales (furniture\, landscape\, and even\, in some cases\, clothing). On display (and in use) within the gallery will be the extended field of the students’ production including: diagrams\, drawings\, models\, images\, furnishings\, and videos...all in service of the design of a \"dream house.”  Organized by John McMorrough.\n\nExhibition On-View: November 30 – December 20\n\nAbout University of Michigan Taubman College of Architecture and Urban Planning:\n\nThe Taubman College of Architecture and Urban Planning at the University of Michigan is a leader in interdisciplinary education and research with a focus on creating a more beautiful\, inclusive and better built environment. The college and its alumni are committed to pushing the boundaries of architectural practice\, advancing global engagement\, and significantly enhancing diversity in the profession. The college offers the following degrees: Bachelor of Science in Architecture\, Master of Architecture (currently ranked #6 nationally\; ranked #1 in 2010 by Design Intelligence Report)\, Master of Science in Architecture\, Master of Urban Planning\, Master of Urban Design\, and PhD programs.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:The Land of Open Graves: Photographs from the Undocumented Migration Project
DESCRIPTION:This pop-up exhibition features Michael Wells' original photographs of Jason De Leon's Undocumented Migration Project\, which was the subject of a 2013 exhibition at the Institute for the Humanities gallery. The photographs were featured in De León's new book The Land of Open Graves Living and Dying on the Migrant Trail.\n\nAbout the book:\n\nIn his gripping and provocative debut\, anthropologist Jason De León sheds light on one of the most pressing political issues of our time—the human consequences of US immigration policy.  The Land of Open Graves reveals the suffering and deaths that occur daily in the Sonoran Desert of Arizona as thousands of undocumented migrants attempt to cross the border from Mexico into the United States.\nJason De León is assistant professor of anthropology at the University of Michigan and director of the Undocumented Migration Project\, a long-term anthropological study of clandestine border crossings between Mexico and the United States. His academic work has been featured in numerous media outlets\, including National Public Radio\, the New York Times Magazine\, Al Jazeera\, The Huffington Post\, and Vice magazine. In 2013\, De León was named a National Geographic Emerging Explorer.\n\nMichael Wells has served as the primary photographer for the Undocumented Migration Project since its inception in 2009 and has photographed that project’s ethnographic and archaeological fieldwork in Arizona\, New York\, Mexico\, and Ecuador. A Los Angeles-based photographer\, his work focuses on how people engage with built and natural environments with a unique eye for the materiality of these spaces. He has created photography projects on post-Katrina New Orleans\, the physicality of the US-Mexico border in Southern Arizona and California\, amateur Latino soccer leagues in Los Angeles\, and Latino Communities in the American South. His diverse body of work has been featured in a wide range of media outlets including Architectural Digest\, Archaeology Magazine\, Domus\, Dwell\, Cabinet\, National Geographic\, National Public Radio\, and Textfield. His book publications include Municipal De Futbol (2008) Denim Legends (2008)\, The Legendary Estates of Beverly Hills (2009)\, and Windsor Smith Homefront (2015).

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:Presentation:Combatting Campus Rape Culture: Factors Affecting Sexual Assault Reporting & Help Seeking
DESCRIPTION:A light lunch will be served. Abstract: Despite increased attention to campus sexual assault and efforts to improve university response systems (e.g.\, reporting procedures\, resources)\, victimization remains a rampant problem on college campuses. Most sexual assaults are not reported\, and few survivors seek help from victim services. In my work\, I am curious how laws/policies created to address this problem (e.g.\, Title IX) shape institutional response systems and students’ perceptions and behaviors\, and then\, what barriers prevent survivors from using supports created by such policies. To answer these questions\, I conducted two complementary studies of undergraduate resident assistants (RAs) and undergraduate women living in university housing (Residents). RAs are a critical group\, as they are often first responders for students in crisis\, but are also mandated to report sexual assault disclosures to the university. In one study\, I examine how RAs’ knowledge and perceptions of reporting procedures predict their likelihood to report disclosures. In another\, I examine the barriers that prevent Residents who had experienced sexual assault from using three supports on campus: formal reporting procedures\, the sexual assault center\, and housing staff. Together\, these studies demonstrate ways that policies affect students—in particular\, reporting and help seeking for sexual assault.

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:CREES Noon Lecture. Feminism in Russia
DESCRIPTION:Natalia Pushkareva will provide a broad overview of the history of the women’s movement and feminism in Russia from the epoch of the Catherine the Great (last half of the 18th century) to the beginning of the 21st century. The first steps of this movement in Russia were mostly confined to the aristocracy and linked to the influence of the ideas of the French Revolution. The new treatment of women led to the appearance of a new type of Russian women who participated in the political\, social and cultural life. Pushkareva will show how the idea of feminism in Russia remained closely tied to revolutionary politics and social reform.\n\nAfter the February Revolution of 1917\, feminist lobbying resulted in suffrage and nominal equality for women in education and the workplace. However\, even into the late Soviet period\, women continued to experience discrimination in certain careers (including politics) as well as income inequality and a greater burden of household work. Pushkareva will conclude her discussion of the history of women’s organizations with the present time\, when the Russian Orthodox Church calls feminism a “mortal sin.”\n\nNatalia L. Pushkareva is professor\, leading research fellow\, and head of the Women’s and Gender Studies Department at the Institute of Ethnology and Anthropology\, Russian Academy of Sciences. Her fields of interest include gender history\, history of family relations\, the social anthropology of the academic community\, as well as the history of sexuality in medieval\, modern\, and contemporary Russia. The chief editor of the yearbook Sotsial'naia istoriia (Social history)\, she also serves as president of the Russian Association for Research in Women’s History. She has authored numerous publications\, among them: Zhenshchiny drevnei Rusi (Women in Medieval Rus) (Moscow: Mysl’\, 1989)\; Women in Russian History from the Tenth to the Twentieth Century (New York: M. E. Sharp\, 1997)\; Russkaia zhenshchina: istoriia i sovremennost’ (The Russian woman: past and present) (Moscow: Ladomir\, 2002)\; Gendernaia teoriia i istoricheskoe znanie (Gender theory and historical knowledge) (St. Petersburg: Aletheia\, 2007).

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:Mt. Wudang: The Sacred Daoist Mountain that Emperor Yongle Built
DESCRIPTION:Between the years 1412 and 1418 Emperor Yongle of the Ming dynasty (1368-1644) constructed of a massive Daoist architectural complex dedicated to the Daoist deity Zhenwu on Mt. Wudang in Hubei province. When Yongle took over Mt. Wudang\, the mountain range was already filled with temples dedicated to Zhenwu. These temples had been built a hundred or so years earlier by Yuan dynasty (1279-1368) priests\, but by the early Ming the structures had fallen into disrepair. Emperor Yongle’s motivation to reconstruct the temples stemmed from his belief that Zhenwu had aided him in his usurpation of the throne a decade earlier. Yongle not only rebuilt dozens of temples to Zhenwu on Mt. Wudang in the new architectural style of the Ming court\, including one cast in bronze for the summit of the mountain\, he also sponsored the production of steles\, gazetteers\, woodblock prints\, and painted handscrolls in order to record Zhenwu’s “auspicious responses” to his construction project. In this lecture I will investigate the many ways in which Yongle’s architectural contributions to Mt. Wudang were promoted through these various mediums. I argue that Yongle was successful in rebranding the sacred site of Mt. Wudang as a product of his own creation\, despite the fact that he relied almost entirely on the preexisting temple configurations and meanings when constructing it.\n\nImage: Detail of Taiheshan Rui Tu\, early 15th century

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:ARMENIAN STUDIES PROGRAM LECTURE
DESCRIPTION:Compatriotic societies were once ubiquitous organizations throughout the Armenian diaspora. They significantly contributed to the resettlement of Armenian genocide survivors and refugees in Soviet Armenia and the Middle East. Many compatriotic societies\, however\, were founded decades before the genocide in the United States through the efforts of early Armenian immigrants from the Ottoman Empire. Their initial aim was to support various projects in native villages and towns\, in their respective homelands. The genocide\, the deportations of Armenians as well as the destruction of their villages and towns during WWI prompted these organizations to rethink their programs and adjust their activities accordingly. This lecture will address the role of the compatriotic societies in modern Armenian diasporic communities by exploring their translocal activism and the changes in their programmatic endeavors as they responded to events\, which affected their compatriots in their homeland and elsewhere in the diaspora.\n\nCosponsored by the Center for Middle Eastern and North African Studies (CMENAS)\, the Department of American Culture\, and the Department of Near Eastern Studies.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:Author's Forum Presents Vox Popular: The Surprising Life of Language in the Media: A Conversation with Robin Queen and Anne Curzan
DESCRIPTION:Our favorite movies and TV shows feature indelible characters who tell us about themselves not just in what they say but in how they say it. The creative decisions behind these voices—such as what accent or dialect to use—offer rich data for sociolinguistic study. Ideal for students of language variation as well as general readers interested in media\, Vox Popular is an engaging tour through the major issues of sociolinguistic study as heard in the voices from mass media. –Wiley Publishers\n\nRobin Queen is Arthur F. Thurnau Professor of Linguistics\, English Languages and Literatures\, and Germanic Languages and Literatures at the University of Michigan. In addition to her research on language variation in the mass media\, Queen has extensively researched language\, gender\, and sexuality\; intonation and prosody\; and contact-related language change. She is the co-author of Through the Golden Door: Educational Approaches for Immigrant Adolescents with Limited Schooling (1998).\n\nAnne Curzan is Arthur F. Thurnau Professor of English at the University of Michigan. She also holds faculty appointments in the Department of Linguistics and the School of Education. She can be found talking about language in short videos on the LSA Wire\, in the column \"Talking About Words\" in Michigan Today\, and on the segment \"That's What They Say\" on Michigan Radio. \n\nThe Author's Forum is a collaboration between the U-M Institute for the Humanities\, University Library\, & Ann Arbor Book Festival.

SUMMARY:Presentation:Drugs\, addiction\, and the brain.
DESCRIPTION:Talk will be given in multi-purpose room in the basement of the downtown branch of the Ann Arbor District Library 343 S. 5th Avenue\, Ann Arbor\, MI. This is a community talk by University of Michigan Psychology Faculty.\n\nABSTRACT: When drugs are taken repeatedly their effects often change. Most people are aware that some effects get smaller and smaller – a phenomenon known as tolerance. However\, the repeated use of drugs of abuse can also lead to a very different kind of change\; some drug effects get bigger and bigger – a phenomenon known as sensitization. Brain regions that are normally involved in regulating motivated behavior are among those that can undergo sensitization\, and as these brain systems become hypersensitive this can lead to a pathological increase in the desire (motivation) to take drugs. This talk will focus on the ways drugs of abuse can change the brain\, how this influences behavioral and psychological function and how such changes may contribute to the transition from mere drug use to addiction.
