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:\"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: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:Lecture / Discussion:Nam Center Colloquium Series
DESCRIPTION:Speaker: Baek Yung Kim\, Associate Professor\, Humanities Department\, Kwangwoon University\n\nThis study examines the spatio-cultural changes of urban society in Seoul during 1980’s\, focusing on influences of 1988 Seoul Olympic games on the development of Gangnam area. Learning from and succeeding the art of ruling of the Park Chung Hee regime\, the 5th republic succeeded in hosting 1986 Asian games and 1988 Olympic games in Seoul as early as 1981. Since then\, a project of the making of a showcase city to show off the ‘Miracle of Han river’ to the whole world has begun. It composed mainly of three urban restructuring plans such as the renewal of the old town area\, comprehensive development of Han river area including Yeouido island\, and intensive development of newly built Yeongdong area. Through ‘the Age of 86·88’\, Yeongdong has transformed into a newly-born heart of Seoul metropolitan area\, Gangnam.\n\nBaek Yung Kim is an Associate Professor in the College of Liberal Arts\, Kwangwoon University in Seoul\, South Korea and is a Visiting Scholar of Department of History in UC-San Diego. He served as the Operations Director for the Korean Social History Association (2012-2014) and the Manager of the Korean Society for Urban History (2013-2014). He is a Member of the Editorial Board of Hanguk Sahoehak [Korean Sociological Review] (2013-present) and Doshi Yeonku [Korean Journal of Urban History] (2011-present).\n\nHe is the author of Ch’ibae wa Gonggan: Shikminch’i doshi Gyeongseonggwa Ch’eguk Ilbon [Governmentality and Space: Colonial Seoul and the Japanese Empire] (Munhakgwajisungsa\, 2009). As a historical sociologist and urban historian\, he has published numerous articles on colonial modernity issues in Korea\, Japanese colonial urbanism and its legacies in South Korea\, and local experiences and collective memories of Koreans.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:Negativity Rules (On the Antisocial Thesis in Queer Theory)
DESCRIPTION:This lecture returns to the antisocial thesis in queer theory to explore the contentions about race\, reparativity\, and utopian thought that have come to characterize it. Organized as an extended deliberation on Lauren Berlant and Lee Edelman’s recent book\, Sex\, or the Unbearable\, the lecture reads their collaboration in broader terms than they offer\, linking the institutional\, analytic\, and affective terrain in which their conversation moves. It opens by considering what they most share—a commitment to the value of negativity and nonsovereignty for social theory—before exploring the distinctly different sensibilities they offer\, with Edelman insisting on a negativity born of the death drive and Berlant finding political sustenance in ordinary acts aimed at social change. Plotting these differences\, the lecture ends by delineating what remains irresolvable about queer theory's antisocial debate.\n\nRobyn Wiegman is Professor of Literature and Women’s Studies at Duke University\, where she teaches courses in feminist and queer theory\, U.S. Studies\, and critical race studies.

SUMMARY:Performance:Over the Rhine
DESCRIPTION:Named for a tough but enduringly creative neighborhood north of downtown Cincinnati\, Over the Rhine is the duo of Linford Detweiler and Karin Bergquist. Their ethereal sounds—dreamy\, sweeping\, highly literate and melancholy—have drawn comparisons to the likes of Cowboy Junkies. Says Leslie Benson of the Dayton City Paper: \"The music of Cincinnati-based folk/roots band Over the Rhine seeps into you with a rich hunger—each note a separate\, glimmering cloud-diamond.\" And someone once described OTR\"s music as a mash-up of spirituality\, whimsy and sensuality (\"thank you\, thank you\, thank you\,\" they say). If you've never heard Over the Rhine\, this is a great time to check them out—their December shows draw on their two superb holiday albums\, which bring renewal and a sense of the season to all.
