SUMMARY:Exhibition:Winteractive: The Art of Video Games
DESCRIPTION:What does it mean for a game to be art? Many independent game developers stretch the definition of what a game can be and create games that blur the boundaries between art and traditional entertainment.\n\nThe games in this exhibition—all created by individual or small groups of developers—will lead you into realms of sound and beauty\, or provoke reflection on the human condition\, or entertain you with innovative takes on established game genres—or perhaps all of the above at once!\n\nThis is a hands-on exhibition. We invite you play and explore the games\, and offer your thoughts at http://bit.ly/winteractive\n\nSponsored by the Ann Arbor District Library and the University of Michigan Library Computer & Video Game Archive.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Shakespeare on Page and Stage: A Celebration
DESCRIPTION:This exhibit is a historical journey through different versions of Shakespeare’s plays as they were edited for publication or interpreted  for the stage. Starting with the Second Folio (1632)\, our display includes a selection of landmark editions by authors and scholars like John Dryden\, Nicholas Rowe\, Alexander Pope\, Samuel Johnson\, and Edmond Malone. It explores the staging and costuming of productions such as Charles Kean’s archaeologically-informed\, elaborately-costumed 1856 production of The Winter’s Tale\, and Maurice Browne-Ellen Van Volkenburg 1930 production of Othello casting Paul Robeson as the first black actor to play Othello in a century.\n\nMost of the titles included in this display come from the McMillan Shakespeare Library.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:A Wall in Process
DESCRIPTION:This wall-in-process represents a snapshot into the year long collaborative project Humanize the Numbers at the University of Michigan. Led by Virginia artist and prison reform activist Mark Strandquist\, this campus-wide endeavor aims to link together community partners—prison reformers and advocates\, faculty\, staff\, students\, artists\, the incarcerated\, and their families—in various artistic outputs to foster knowledge and to reveal the human face of the Michigan prison system. \n\nWhat will emerge on this wall over the course of its eight week duration is the product of partnerships between the Institute for the Humanities and artists and prison reform activists. We have collected material from the Prison Creative Arts Program (PCAP)\, the Citizens’ Alliance on Prisons and Public Spending (CAPPS)\, Ana Fernandez’s undergraduate printmaking course in the Residential College\, Natalie Holbrook from the American Friends Service Committee (AFSC)\, the AFSC’s Good Neighbor Letter Writing Project as facilitated by Ron Simpson-Bey\, and a quilting workshop in a Michigan girls’ treatment unit facilitated by Theadra Fleming and Heather Martin. \n\nThis wall is not static\, fixed\, or ever meant to be complete. Its appearance will change week by week\, both in an additive and reductive sense. The room will also serve as a meeting place for lectures and workshops by Humanize the Numbers partners throughout the exhibit’s duration. Displaying both the seemingly mundane and the extraordinary\, the wall aims to engage viewers and garner interest in the pursuit of knowledge on Michigan’s prison system\, acting as a humanistic lens into the lives affected by our prison system on a personal\, institutional\, statewide\, and nationwide scope.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Accent Elimination
DESCRIPTION:About Accent Elimination\n\nNina Katchadourian’s work Accent Elimination\, the last installation in the Institute’s Year of Conversions\, meanders and parses through our notions of identity. Katchadourian considers the ongoing quandary of where we really come from\, who we are\, trying to isolate our sense of ourselves in counterpoint with the way people define or judge us based upon their assumptions. It is\, of course\, the unique combination of things that offers our most comprehensive and authentic self-reflection\, not one thing or another\, and this amalgamation is to some degree indecipherable.\n\n\nAlthough they have lived in the United States for over 45 years\, Katchadourian’s foreign-born parents both have distinctive but hard-to-place accents that the artist has never been able to imitate correctly. Inspired by posters around New York advertising courses in “accent elimination\,” Katchadourian decided to hire a professional who could teach her to speak in each of her parents’ accents and teach them to speak with a so-called “standard American accent.” Katchadourian and her parents took intensive lessons with accent coach Sam Chwat at his office every other day for several weeks\, and also practiced in the artist’s studio between lessons. They worked with two scripts: one written by her mother and the other by her father\, both modeled on the typical conversation that each of them has when talking with a stranger who notices an accent and is curious about its origins.\n\nKatchadourian plays the part of the stranger. The dialogues are first performed in everyone’s natural accents\, then at the end of the piece\, after much practice and struggle\, they attempt to perform the\nsame scripts—in the best version they can muster—of their new accents.\n\nIn light of recent and all-too-familiar seismic political shifts consumed with “otherness\,” and building walls rather than bringing them down\, Accent Elimination feels especially prescient. It reminds us there\nare so many layers that comprise our cultural identities\, stacked up like markers\, artifacts of our points of origin as well as our extraordinary journeys. It is an ongoing and painstaking process as to what we save and what we lose along the way by choice\, necessity\, or circumstance. And in all of this\, perhaps we discover ourselves on common ground.\n\nAccent Elimination was included at the 2015 Venice Biennale in the Armenian pavilion\, which won the Golden Lion for Best National Participation. Nina Katchadourian is represented by Catharine Clark Gallery.\n\nNina Katchadourian’s University of Michigan visit is the result of a collaboration between the Institute for the Humanities and the Armenian Studies Program.

DESCRIPTION:The University of Michigan's Taubman College of Architecture and Urban Planning presents...\"Fellow Fellows\"\, the Architecture Fellows Presentation and Exhibition Opening. \n\nThe exhibition of projects of the 2015-2016 Architecture Fellows opens on Wednesday\, March 23 and runs through the end of the Winter term (May 2). The Fellows will present their projects to the college at 6:00 p.m. in the Auditorium. The projects present their ongoing research during their yearlong fellowship. A reception will follow the presentations\, with exhibition on view in the college gallery.\n\n\nCyrus Peñarroyo - William Muschenheim Fellow\n\nBLDG_DRWG\nBLDG_DRWG recoups handwrought drawing effects and rearranges drawing conventions at the building scale in order to reorient the ways in which architecture is produced and consumed. Oscillating between analog methods (ink\, paint\, tape) and digital processes (scanning\, photoshop filtering\, milling)\, this project intensifies attributes of drawing otherwise lost in translation. A series of 1:1 investigations harnesses the potency of these effects and uses them to emphasize\, deemphasize\, or reconstitute existing architectural conditions. The results of these studies are reassembled in the gallery as a room––one fragment of an unfinished building––that speaks to the instability of its own representation.\n\nTeam members: Andrew Barkhouse\, Peter Watkins\nWith assistance from: Chris Campbell\, Samantha Eng\, Matt Culver\, Asa Peller\, Tafhim Rahman\n\n\nAshley Bigham - Walter B. Sanders Fellow\n\nSafety Not Guaranteed\nArchitecture is inseparable from defense. From its most primitive and revered “origins\,” architecture was rehearsed in environments of conflict. As an alternative to the term defense architecture\, a category which typically refers to forms and types (fortresses\, citadels\, bastions\, urban walls)\, this project proposes the idea of an architecture of defense. An architecture of defense sees all of architecture as a reaction to some measure of paranoia and studies the built environment to recognize measures and methods used to subdue these fears. Safety Not Guaranteed explores the architecture of paranoia through a series of design manipulations and exaggerations. Its setting is the network of suburbia and everyday domestic scenes—spaces most commonly associated with privacy\, safety\, and security and where fortification occurs on the scale of the front door\, the home\, the cul-de-sac\, and the neighborhood.\n\nTeam Members: Connor Brindza\, James Howe\, Neall Oliver\, Sasha Pfeiffer\, Mark Boynton\, Kamsy Anyachebelu\n\n\nDavid Eskenazi - Willard A. Oberdick Fellow\n\nFor the Trees\nAt first I noticed how naked the papers were\, since they didn’t seem to be acting like something else. I guess they were supposed to be models\, it was an architecture exhibit after all\, but they were missing all those things that point elsewhere: no doors\, no windows\, nothing that particularly looks like anything but itself. They were formed\, sure\, but that’s not really enough to point outwards. Or is it? Before you answer\, there was one more thing: some of the papers were near an enlarged duplicate. Actually\, maybe they were shrunken copies. It was a lot like that moment at the top of Runyon Canyon when you turn around and realize there’s an entire other\, slightly smaller Los Angeles behind you. Were you just looking at the original\, or the copy? I think the most interesting part is right afterwards when your focus shifts around you to the ground\, the dirt\, the trees.. all that stuff that frames what you’re looking at\, like the base of a model or scale figures or model trees. Come to think of it\, the papers did look like trees. But the resemblance is fleeting\, and now I’m certain the papers were in fact models pointing around at each other. Or were they in the background\, acting like a frame for something else\, something that wasn’t there?\n\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.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Leisure and Luxury in the Age of Nero:  The Villas of Oplontis near Pompeii - February 19-May 15\, 2016
DESCRIPTION:Organized in cooperation with the Archaeological Superintendency of Pompeii and the Oplontis Project at the University of Texas\, this international traveling exhibition explores the lavish lifestyle and economic interests of some of ancient Rome’s wealthiest and most powerful citizens\, who vacationed along the Bay of Naples. Julius Caesar\, Cicero\, Augustus\, and Nero all owned villas in this region. With more than 200 objects on loan from Italy\, the exhibition focuses on two structures at Oplontis that were buried when Mount Vesuvius erupted in AD 79. One is an enormous luxury villa that may once have belonged to the family of Nero’s second wife Poppaea. The other is a nearby commercial-residential complex—a center for the trade in wine and other produce of villa lands. Together these two establishments speak eloquently of the ways in which the Roman elite built\, maintained\, and displayed their vast wealth\, political power\, and social prestige. In presenting a selection of impressive works of art along with ordinary utilitarian objects\, the exhibition also calls attention to Roman disparities of wealth\, social class\, and consumption. Such disparities were as problematic for Roman society as they are for ours today.\n\nThis exhibition in Ann Arbor will remain open to the public until May 15\, 2016. It will also be shown at the Museum of the Rockies at the Montana State University\, Bozeman (June 17-December 31\, 2016) and the Smith College Museum of Art in Northampton\, Massachusetts (February 3-August 13\, 2017).\n\nOplontis inv. 73412a: Image of gold and emerald necklace courtesy of Pio Foglia\, Fotographica Foglia s.a.s.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Special Exhibit:On the Trail of Wonder: Selections from the Collection of Rolf Sapoli
DESCRIPTION:What makes an object wonderful? Is it an objective quality that can be measured and studied? Or is it an instinctive reaction\, welling up within the observer\, prompting us to ask: where did this come from? What does it mean? Is it real?\nNoted natural philosopher Rolf Sapoli has generously lent prized pieces from his world-renowned collection to the U-M Museum of Natural History for a short-term imposition. Objects rarely seen in a museum will be on display\, including a native Michigan koala\, Henry Ford’s pet dodo\, and a miniature manatee.  The items will be integrated with the permanent collections and interspersed throughout the galleries\, creating a trail of wonderful objects.  How many will you find?  The exhibit opens March 26 and runs through April 10\, though Mr. Sapoli tells us the best viewing will be on Friday\, April 1\, at 4:01 pm.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:MEDICAL 3D PRINTING TO SAVE LIVES
DESCRIPTION:3D printing is an exponential technology that allows medical devices to be manufactured that perfectly match an individual’s body. At U-M we have a vastly  inclusive collaboration that spans more than 30 departments across the university. Finding cures for potentially devastating conditions like tracheobronchomalacia helps drive quality care and engagement\, as care teams experience firsthand the trailblazing developments that create endless possibilities.\n\nGlenn E. Green\, MD\, pediatric otolaryngologist at U-M Mott Children’s Hospital\, has  developed surgical techniques and devices for complex airway reconstruction. He  co-invented a 3D-printed airway splint that was successfully placed in five children with immediately life-threatening bronchomalacia (airway collapse) under provisions for  emergency use. He directs ongoing translational trials of 3D-printed devices in humans and animals.\n\nThis is the fifth in a six-lecture series. The subject is Biomedical Breakthroughs: The Future is Here.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Albert Kahn: Under Construction
DESCRIPTION:In the past two decades there has been a tremendous swell of interest in Detroit architect Albert Kahn (1869–1942)\, arguably the most important architect of American industrialization. Albert Kahn: Under Construction focuses on the remarkable archive of photographs assembled by Albert Kahn Associates while building the powerhouses of American industry\, from the Highland Park Ford Plant to the Willow Run Bomber Plant. Shot by an array of professional photographers based mainly in Detroit\, these often striking documentary images were a novel strategy for conveying information about the daily progress of construction to busy managers at the main office. The exhibition foregrounds the photographic series as a way of illustrating change over time—showing buildings as they grew on site—and Kahn’s innovative solutions to the architectural challenges of his day.\n\n**Special hours Sundays: 12–5pm\, CLOSED Mondays

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Xu Weixin: Monumental Portraits
DESCRIPTION:The first major U.S. exhibition of the accomplished Chinese artist Xu Weixin (b. 1958)\, Xu Weixin: Monumental Portraits will focus on two of his acclaimed\, large-size portrait series: Miner Portraits and Chinese Historical Figures: 1966–1976. The subjects in Miner Portraits are coal miners working in harsh conditions in contemporary China. Chinese Historical Figures: 1966–1976 depicts people who lived—known and unknown\, and some of whom eventually perished—during the turbulent time of the Cultural Revolution. By portraying these individuals with monumentality and poignant realism\, Xu Weixin brings our focus to their lives and ordeals\, inviting an emotional connection. Reflecting the artist’s deep interest in the human condition\, these single-person portraits challenge our expectations and compel us to see beyond official narratives of historical events and social conditions. Xu Weixin is currently a professor of painting and the former executive dean of the School of Arts\, Renmin University\, Beijing.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Ah humanity!
DESCRIPTION:In partnership with the 54th Ann Arbor Film Festival\, Ernst Karel will present his collaborative project Ah humanity! at the Work Gallery\, 306 S State St\, Ann Arbor\, from March 15 - April 1. Ah humanity! was created by Karel in conjunction with Véréna Paravel and Lucien Castaing- Taylor.\n\nAn installation for video and four-channel audio\, Ah humanity! reflects on the fragility and folly of humanity in the age of the Anthropocene. Taking the 3/11/11 disaster of Fukushima as its point of departure\, it evokes an apocalyptic vision of modernity\, and our predilection for historical amnesia and futuristic flights of fancy. The images were shot on a telephone through a handheld telescope\, at once close to and far from its subject\, while the audio composition combines empty excerpts from Japanese genbaku and related film soundtracks\, audio recordings from seismic laboratories\, and location sound. He will present a talk about the work at the gallery at 3pm on Thursday\, March 17th.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:Institute Fellow Talk: \"The Voices of Moses: The Idea of Revelation in Early Hasidism\"
DESCRIPTION:This lecture will explore the ways in which a circle of key Hasidic mystics dramatically reinterpreted the theophany on Mt. Sinai. Special attention will be devoted to their teachings on what  may be understood as the content of Revelation (if not the entire Torah)\, and how these figures described devotional practices (such as study and prayer) as a means of reliving and continuing the process of Revelation. In closing\, we will then turn briefly to the echoes of these ideas in the works of twentieth-century Jewish philosophers and theologians.\n\nAriel Evan Mayse is a Research Fellow at the Frankel Institute for Judaic Studies at the University of Michigan\, Ann Arbor. He holds a PhD in Jewish Studies from Harvard University and rabbinic ordination from Beit Midrash Har’el. He recently moved to Ann Arbor from Jerusalem\, where he has been teaching and studying for the past four years. In addition to authoring several scholarly and popular articles on Kabbalah and Chassidut\, Rabbi Mayse is co-editor of the two-volume collection Speaking Torah: Spiritual Teachings From Around the Maggid’s Table (Jewish Lights\, 2013) and editor of From the Depth of the Well: An Anthology of Jewish Mysticism (Paulist Press\, 2014). His current research deals with the role of​ language in ​Chassidic theology\, expressions of Jewish mysticism in the twentieth century\, the formation of early Chassidic literature\, and the relationship between spirituality and law.\n\nSponsored by: Frankel Institute for Advanced Judaic Studies

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:Networking Peripheries: Technological Futures\, Digital Memory and the Myth of Digital Universalism
DESCRIPTION:Channeling the promise global interconnection\, and framed as the mark of contemporary optimization\, “the digital” has come to represent the path towards the future for diverse nations\, economies\, and populations alike. In the midst of its accelerating pursuits across distinct global spaces\, however\, little has been made of the “universalist” underpinnings that mobilize digitality’s global spread\, or of the distinct imaginaries around digital culture and global connection that emerge outside the given centers of techno-culture. This paper will attend to experiments in innovation spaces from the periphery\, including the development of rural hack lab spaces in Peru\, that distinctly engage local histories and memory of knowledge work around nature\, technology\, and information to disrupt the dominant logics of innovation and reorient ICT for Development (ICT4D) frameworks. By fostering collaborations between Latin American free software activists across a range of rural and urban sites\, and between transnational media producers and indigenous communities\, such networks press a cosmopolitcal urging to “think with the unknown\,” and open up possibilities for uncovering distinct collective futures through an interfacing with multiple local pasts.\n\nAbout the speaker:\n\nAnita Say Chan is an assistant research professor of communications in the Department of Media and Cinema Studies at the University of Illinois\, Urbana-Champaign. Her research and teaching interests include globalization and digital cultures\, innovation networks and the “periphery”\, science and technology studies in Latin America\, and hybrid pedagogies in building digital literacies. She received her PhD in 2008 from the MIT Doctoral Program in History and Anthropology of and Science\, Technology\, and Society.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Exhibition: Research Through Making
DESCRIPTION:The University of Michigan's Taubman College of Architecture and Urban Planning presents...Research Through Making.\n\nHistorically\, research and creative practice have been constructed as \"opposites.\" This is not an unusual struggle in architecture schools\, particularly in the context of a research university. This perceived tension between design and research is indicative of age-old anxieties within the architecture field to understand its nature as an \"applied art.\" Design can be a purely creative activity not unlike creative practices in music and art. In other cases\, design can be a purely problem solving activity\, not unlike research in engineering and industrial production.\n\nIn its seventh year\, University of Michigan Taubman College's Research Through Making (RTM) Program provides seed funding for faculty research\, worked on by faculty\, students and interdisciplinary experts. The exhibition presents tangible results of their collaborative work.\n\nPresentation of projects will start at 6:00pm in the Art & Architecture Building Auditorium\, with a reception to follow at the Liberty Annex.\n\nResearch Through Making Installations:\n\n\"Tap\"\nAdam Fure\n\n\"Panots & Mosiacs: The Plasticity of Hydraulic Cement through Making\"\nAna Morcillo Pallares and Jonathan Rule\n\n\"Dip and Dive in the D\"\nClaudia Wigger\n\n\"Infundibuliforms: Cable Robot Actuated Kinetic Environments\"\nWes McGee\, Geoffrey Thün\, Kathy Velikov\n\n\"Post Rock\"\nMeredith Miller and Thom Moran\n\nGrant submissions were anonymously evaluated by a distinguished jury from outside the college:\n\nBenjamin Ball\, Lead Artist and Principal\, Ball-Nogues Studio\nBrooke Hodge\, Deputy director\, Cooper Hewitt\, Smithsonian Design Museum\nMark Lamster\, Architecture critic\, The Dallas Morning News\n\n​This exhibition runs from March 10 - April 15. \n\nThe Liberty Gallery is located at 305 W. Liberty Street in downtown Ann Arbor. Exhibition hours are Thursday to Sunday from 3:00-7:00pm unless otherwise noted.\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:Lecture / Discussion:Transduction and Medial Conversion: Line—Letter—Trace
DESCRIPTION:In the spring of 2008\, the First Sounds Initiative made international headlines by releasing digitally recovered audio from a recording dated April 9\, 1860\, seventeen years before Thomas Edison invented his phonograph.   The haunting vocal rendition of “Au Clair de la Lune” had been recorded by Édouard-Léon Scott de Martinville on the phonautograph\, an instrument he had designed to trace airborne sound vibrations onto soot-blackened sheets of paper using an artificial eardrum.  His goal in transducing sounds was to convert them into graphical texts people would access just as they did other “writings”: namely\, by exposing them to light and looking at them.  By playing back Scott’s phonautograms as sound\, we arguably subverted his original intentions\, but at the same time we made it possible for listeners to experience his work in a newly enlightening and enchanting way.  Drawing on this and other recent cases of media being “played” against the grain\, I’ll explore how novel approaches to the history and practice of transduction can challenge received wisdom about what counts as historical audio and video.\n\nPatrick Feaster is a specialist in the history\, culture\, and preservation of early time-based media.  A three-time Grammy nominee\, co-founder of the First Sounds Initiative\, and current President of the Association for Recorded Sound Collections\, he has been actively involved in locating\, identifying\, and contextualizing many of the world's oldest sound recordings and has pioneered a number of digital processing strategies for bringing historical sources to life as audio\, video\, and 3D imagery.  He is the author of Pictures of Sound: One Thousand Years of Educed Audio\, 980-1980\, as well as various album notes and articles about the history and theory of phonography.  He received his doctorate in Folklore and Ethnomusicology in 2007 from Indiana University Bloomington\, where he is now Media Preservation Specialist for the Media Digitization and Preservation Initiative.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:History and Culture in Chinese and Greek Film
DESCRIPTION:5 - 5:50 PM \n\"Lost Child or Lost Fatherhood?: Confucian Structure of Feeling Reinterpreted in Contemporary Chinese Language Cinema\"\nJing Zhang\, New College of Florida\nAbstract: Filial piety and the father-son relationship constitute the core of the “Confucian structure of feeling” in traditional China. While the last two decades saw a rapid economic growth and cultural globalization in China\, they also witnessed a revival of traditional values\, promoted through state propaganda and education\, elite discourse\, popular culture\, and even legalization. It is in this context that I will discuss the theme of parental love in recent Chinese language films\, examining it as an inversion or reinterpretation of filial sentiment pervasive in early modern Chinese literature. I will focus on two recent films of China and Hong Kong collaboration\, Dearest (2014) and Lost and Love (2015)\, one made by the Hong Kong director Peter Chan and the other by novelist and television screenwriter Peng Sanyuan as her directorial debut. Both films base their stories in news reports of child abduction\, focus on the parents’ relentless search for their lost kids\, and dramatize the multilayered tension between parental relationship\, morality\, and law. I will also trace the motif of “looking for a lost child/father” back to the early Modern Chinese narratives and its reincarnations in several films made at critical historical moments. \n\n6 - 6:50 PM  \n\"In Her Own Voice: History\, Memory and Female Subjectivity in Greek Cinema\"\nVassiliki Rapti\, Harvard University\nAbstract: Within the male-dominated Greek cinema\, several pioneering women directors made their appearance in the 1980s and distinguished themselves to the point that we can talk about a feminine Greek cinematic vision. This talk will focus on the distinct features of this powerful yet little known cinematic vision\, and tackle female subjectivity as caught up in between History and memory. By analyzing several path-breaking films such as The Price of Love (1984) and Crystal Nights (1992) by Tonia Marketaki\, Love Wanders in the Night (1981) and The Years of the Big Heat (1991) by Frieda Liappa\, and Hold Me (2006) and the documentary The Aegean in the Words of Poets (2003) by Loukia Rikaki\, where the personal drama is conditioned by the larger circumstances\, it will show how female subjectivity is shaped by desire nurtured by memory and agency against History.\n\n6:50 – 7:20 pm: Q and A and Discussion\n\nApril 1\, 2016 Film Screenings at Angell Hall Auditorium B\, 435 State Street\n6 pm : Dearest (2014). 130 min. Directed by Peter Chan\n8:10 pm : The Aegean in the Words of the Poets (2003). 61 min. Directed by Loukia Rikaki\n\nBiographies\n\nJing Zhang is Associate Professor of Chinese Language and Culture at New College of Florida. She holds a B. A. from Fudan University\, a M.A. from Peking University\, and a doctorate in Chinese and Comparative Literature from Washington University in St. Louis in 2007. She has taught Chinese language\, classical literature\, and Chinese language cinema at New College of Florida. Her research focuses on print culture\, the rise of the xiaoshuo genre\, ritual in literature\, and literati communities in the Ming and Qing China.\n\nProfessor Vassiliki Rapti teaches Greek cinema\, theatre\, language and literature at Harvard University\, where she is Preceptor in Modern Greek and directs the Advanced Training in Greek Poetry Translation and Performance Workshop and is the Chair of the Ludics Seminar at the Mahindra Humanities Center. She is the author of Ludics in Surrealist Theatre and Beyond (Ashgate\, 2013) and of five poetry collections.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:Penny Stamps Speaker Series Presents: Vik Muniz
DESCRIPTION:Vik Muniz repurposes everyday materials such as chocolate\, ash\, dirt\, peanut butter\, and jelly to create intricate and heavily layered trompe l'oeil renderings\, often of iconic artworks. Muniz's highly-constructed works are not only “legible” on various levels but also call attention to their own legibility\, conveying an image without concealing the language — or rather\, the linguistics — of the image conveyed. In 2008\, he undertook a large-scale project in Brazil\, photographing trash-pickers as figures from emblematic paintings\, such as Jacques-Louis David's Neoclassical Death of Marat\, and then recreating the photographs in large-scale arrangements of trash. The project was documented in the 2010 film Waste Land in an attempt to raise awareness for urban poverty.\nMuniz's distinctive practice explores and revels in the instability that exists between craft and mechanical reproduction\, between high art and popular culture\, between the ephemeral and the perdurable\, between the coded and the recognizable. Muniz has been featured in numerous solo exhibitions\, including Art Museum of Banco de la República (Bogotá)\, Beyeler Foundation\, P.S. 1 MoMA (NYC)\, the Pinacoteca do Estado de São Paulo (São Paulo)\, MACRO (Rome)\, the Irish Museum of Modern Art (Dublin)\, and the Menil Collection (Houston)\, and his work is included in major private and public collections around the world.

Please arrive early.\n\nPulitzer Prize finalist Dael Orlandersmith explores family and heritage in this one-woman play.\n\nAn uplifting semi-autobiographical exploration of the family we are born into and the family we choose\, \"Forever\" draws from Orlandersmith’s own pilgrimage to the famed Père Lachaise Cemetery in Paris — the final resting place of legendary artists such as Marcel Proust\, Oscar Wilde and Jim Morrison. At the graveside of these timeless artists\, Orlandersmith finds unexpected grace in a gripping tale of the legacy a daughter inherits from her mother.\n\nOrlandersmith is an Obie\, Guggenheim and PEN Award-winning playwright and performer. Her writing credits include \"Beauty's Daughter\,\" \"Horsedreams\,\" and \"Yellowman.\"
