SUMMARY:Exhibition:Gifts of Art presents Works by Belle Kogan: First Female Industrial Designer
DESCRIPTION:This exhibition presents industrially-produced art pottery pieces designed by Belle Kogan (1902–2000)\, for Red Wing Potteries in Red Wing\, Minnesota.

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:In Focus: Jeanne Gang
DESCRIPTION:Widely acclaimed for her integrative approach to materials\, technology\, and ecological context\, Chicago-based architect Jeanne Gang was selected as a MacArthur Fellow in 2011. Shortly thereafter Gang proposed an ambitious restoration of the Chicago riverfront through a series of small but transformational projects. The WMS Boathouse\, designed by Gang and located north of downtown\, is one such project\, encompassing a field house with state-of-the art training facilities\, a boat storage building\, and a floating dock at the river’s edge. Completed in 2013\, the 22\,000-square-foot boathouse is the city’s premier rowing center\, serving a range of public rowing clubs\, many of whose amateur athletes come from the city’s underserved communities.\n\nThis installation showcases dynamic exterior and interior sketches of the complex—recently acquired by UMMA—depicting the distinctive rhythmic contours of the roof\, derived from studies of rowers in motion\, and the open\, angular\, and light-filled spaces within.\n\n**Special hours Sundays: 12–5pm\, CLOSED Mondays

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Manuel Álvarez Bravo: Mexico’s Poet of Light
DESCRIPTION:Manuel Álvarez Bravo spent nearly his entire career photographing his native Mexico. His style drew upon numerous international influences\, ranging from the Modernism of Edward Weston and Tina Modotti\, whom he met when they spent time in Mexico in the 1920s\, to the formally exquisite photojournalism of Henri Cartier-Bresson and Walker Evans\, whose work he knew in New York\, and the Surrealism of André Breton\, who visited Mexico around 1940.\n\nAlthough not strictly Surrealist\, many of Álvarez Bravo’s works manifest a similarly fantastical mood\; one of the artist’s most arresting qualities is his ability to imbue scenes of everyday life with an otherworldly\, metaphysical power. The twenty-three photographs in the exhibition\, drawn from UMMA’s collections\, show the artist’s ability to synthesize a personal—even nationalistic—style that merged the motifs of Mexican religious and indigenous works and plant forms (such as agave leaves) with a Modernist approach to image making. Throughout\, the presence of light as a wondrous metaphor and revealer of life animates even the emptiest and most silent of Álvarez Bravo’s scenes.\n\n**Special hours Sundays: 12–5pm\, CLOSED Mondays

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Siebren Versteeg: LIKE II (2016)
DESCRIPTION:In Siebren Versteeg’s LIKE II (2016)\, a computer painting program creates a composition using a continuously changing algorithm\, and then runs a periodic Google search to find a matching image online. Every sixty seconds\, the painting made by the computer is uploaded to Google’s “search by image” feature\, and images that most closely match the composition are then downloaded and displayed.\n\nThe notion of abstraction plays a central role in this work. Throughout modernity\, artists have sought inventive ways to free painting from its tradition as a representational medium. LIKE II inverts this ambition\, finding the reality hidden within pure abstraction. Because the work evolves based on whatever content is available online at any given moment\, the artist relinquishes a certain degree of creative control. Versteeg says\, “As the nature of the images presented by the work is random\, the artist assumes both all and no responsibility for their presence and content.”\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:Performance:American Impressionists in Monet Country
DESCRIPTION:On Saturday\, May 21 at 8 pm\, and Sunday May 22 at 7 pm\, Rachel Urist’s American Impressionists in Monet Country will be presented at the Michigan League. The event is a theatrical exploration of the artists in Giverny at the turn of the 20th century.\n\nGiverny is a tranquil village\, nestled between Paris and Rouen. It was home to Claude Monet\, his wife\, Alice\, and their six children. The shimmering air and pastoral landscapes drew painters from near and far. Giveny attracted so many American painters\, that it became known as “the American colony.” Painters who sojourned there included John Singer Sargent\, Theodore Robinson\, Theodore Butler\, Lilla Cabot Perry\, and Michigan native\, Frederick Frieseke.\n\nThis event is the brainchild of writer Rachel Urist and theatre-maker Nancy Heusel. The event is hosted by the Friends of the Michigan League. The presentation features the paintings of Frederick Frieseke\, a Michigan-born member of the Giverny community. Urist directs. She and Heusel join the cast.\n\nThis reader’s theatre presentation includes live music (Laurel Federbush on harp) and projected images of eighty paintings by many artists. It features a cast of nine actors playing thirty five characters. Performances will take place in the Koessler Room (third floor\, Michigan League). A light reception will follow.
