She is best known for bas-relief limestone sculptures\, but in 2011 she developed an interest in sculpting clay using a similar relief carving technique. Out of this came an artistic exploration and refinement of birds using ceramic vessels as the starting point. Whimsical additions such as tails and beaks give each bird an individual personality. Each bird is perched on an individually carved limestone base to enhance the unique qualities that each bird displays. Heyl’s affinity for nature extends from her art to her love of gardening and the occasional golf game.

Invisible Women: Portraits of Aging in Ukraine DESCRIPTION:Photography by Ashley Bigham\, 2015-16 Walter B. Sanders Fellow\, Taubman College of Architecture and Urban Planning\, U-M\; Watercolors by Grace Mahoney\, doctoral student in Slavic languages and literatures\, U-M.\n\nIn this exhibition\, artists Bigham and Mahoney investigate the visibility and social role of Ukraine’s older generation of women—embodied in a figure both iconic and ubiquitous\, the babusya. Seen in public transport\, in the market\, and on the street\, each babusya has a story to tell. Each has something to say\, something to gossip about\, and something to complain about. The current generation of Ukrainian grandmothers survived World War II\, the Holodomor\, and multiple repressions. They are also active in the present—although civic activism is often thought to be the province of the young\, many babusya joined in the actions of Ukraine’s Revolution of Dignity in Kyiv and throughout the country. Now they witness the war in Eastern Ukraine. Many of them have lost their homes and some of them have lost their children or grandchildren. The generation called\, “The Children of War” are now seniors of war. \n \nIn addition to their historic significance as a generation\, these women are present in the spheres of daily life throughout the country. Possibly overlooked in society\, these women are vibrant and active in the public spaces of contemporary Ukraine. Working in the open-air bazaars\, resting on public park benches\, or strolling through cemeteries\, these women stake their claim on the urban space—blending\, coalescing\, disappearing. This exhibit endeavors to tell the stories of these grannies. It’s an invitation to look closer\, to see the stories which are written on their faces – they are old and tired\, but not invisible. \n \nAshley Bigham is a lecturer and the 2015-2016 Walter B. Sanders Fellow at the University of Michigan Taubman College of Architecture and Urban Planning. Prior to her appointment at Taubman College\, Ashley was a Fulbright Fellow in Lviv\, Ukraine\, researching and teaching at the Center of Urban History of East Central Europe. Bigham holds a Master of Architecture from Yale University and a Bachelor of Architecture from the University of Tennessee. \n \nGrace Mahoney is a Ph.D. student in Slavic Languages and Literatures. In 2014-15 she lived in Ukraine on a U.S. Student Fulbright fellowship and interned with the Revolution of Dignity Museum in Kyiv in summer 2016. She has Bachelor's degrees in Visual Art and English Literature from Seattle University. Her work from this show was originally shown in the exhibition Portraits of the Unlost at America House in Kyiv in summer 2015. \n \nAn artists’ talk will be held from 4-5:30 pm on Friday\, September 23 in 1636 SSWB.\n\nExhibition sponsors: Center for Russian\, East European\, and Eurasian Studies\; A.

Local artist and photographer Jane Kramer spent weeks exploring Michigan’s nature preserves and botanical gardens---including Matthaei---taking pictures of the shadows cast by native plant species. The shadow images were then transferred to handmade paper created from invasive plant species. For Kramer the shadows speak to the fragility of threatened plants and their struggle to survive in a changing environment that includes invasive species. The coupling of shadow and paper underscores the complex relationship between invasive and endangered plant species. Free admission. Open Wednesdays until 8 pm.

Her investigations combine architectural research\, material studies\, and art experiments\, a strategy she began as a student that now defines her career.\n\nThe most important element in her formal vocabulary is light\, not only as a “material” in its own right\, but also as a condition. Varying in strength\, form\, and duration\, light constructs architecture as a situational experience rather than a fixed space. Newell’s fascination with light is a fascination with darkness. Through urban interventions\, installations\, and photographs\, she investigates how darkness creates alternate environments\, with unseen geographies\, untold histories\, and secret identities.\n\nNewell\, assistant professor of architecture at U-M Taubman College of Architecture and Urban Planning\, is a recent recipient of the Rome Prize in architecture. Overnight includes photographs from her Rome project as well as new photography from the series Nightly\, featuring nighttime images of Detroit streetscapes and interiors\, alongside a site-specific sculptural installation commissioned by the Museum.

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 UID:30043-3321480@events.umich.edu URL:https://events.umich.edu/event/30043 CLASS:PUBLIC STATUS:CONFIRMED CATEGORIES:Exhibition,Museum,UMMA,Visual Arts LOCATION:Museum of Art - Photography Gallery CONTACT: END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20160706T154352 DTSTART;TZID=America/Detroit:20160927T110000 DTEND;TZID=America/Detroit:20160927T170000 SUMMARY:Exhibition:Mira Henry: The View Inside DESCRIPTION:Before joining the faculty of the Southern California Institute of Architecture in Los Angeles\, Mira Henry spent several years as a project architect\, immersed in the everyday\, banal details of how buildings get built: construction drawings\, material specs\, and building codes. She became an expert in seeing the world the way an architect sees it. But as a progressive architectural thinker\, Henry’s inspiration has been to deconstruct that vision\, to “unsee” the very forms and representations that constitute an architect’s basic language.\n\nThrough speculative experiments and conceptual drawings Henry discovers in static architectural details an unsettling range of figurative expression\, including\, for example\, the way the profiles of roof eaves resemble human heads. Wallpaper\, with its ability to mask\, transform\, or animate a space\, is also a prominent element in her work. Her projects explore how these features animate our subjective experience—what she calls our “shifting fantasies”—of architectural space.\nLead support for this exhibition is provided by the Herbert W. and Susan L. Johe Endowment.

Charles Darwin highlighted this dependence by inviting his reader to imagine a “tangled bank\,” chocked full of interacting plants and animals. How then does evolution proceed in such a tangled bank? In the first part of my talk I will discuss how host-parasite coevolution in populations of self-replicating computer programs shapes what is adaptive for the hosts and ultimately drives the evolution of biological complexity. I will show how we can use these evolving digital communities to study how networks of host-parasite interactions are formed in more detail than is currently possible in the lab or in nature. Finally\, I will discuss a new method of growing microbes in millions of easy-to-create droplets of media isolated by an oil phase. These emulsions allow us to test how competition for shared resources (i.e.\, intraspecific interactions) affects the evolutionary trajectory a population takes\, and how that trajectory aligns with our predictions. Together\, these projects harness technology\, including computational simulations and novel culturing methods for microbes\, to address fundamental questions about evolution in dynamic and entangled contexts.

Lee pokes and prods through Li Zhi’s sprawling corpus of writings and shows how Li slyly redefines mundane everyday words\; effectively cites (slightly mis-remembered\, or intentionally so?) ancient literary references\; subtly but powerfully redirects the reading of seemingly trivial throw-away passages in classics\, and more ––all in the service\, and effectively so\, of reclaiming or further opening up the written world in which each woman can create and live her distinctive life. Li takes seriously tradition and the power of reading and writing—rather than legal change\, activism\, or changes in social structure—to affect our hearts and minds and substantively transform our lives.\n\nPauline Lee is an Associate Professor of Chinese Religions and Cultures at Saint Louis University. She received her A.B. (English Literature\, honors in Humanities\, 1991) from Stanford University\, her M.T.S. (Comparative Religions\, 1995) from Harvard Divinity School\, and her Ph.D. (Religious Studies\, minor in Philosophy\, 2002) from Stanford University. She teaches East Asian religions and philosophy with courses in Chinese thought\, Confucianism\, Daoism\, East Asian women and feminisms\, Chinese Civilization\, and children’s studies. Previous to her current position\, she has taught at Santa Clara University and Washington University. Her first monograph\, \"Li Zhi\, Confucianism\, and the Virtue of Desire\" (State University of New York Press\, 2012)\, examines the 16th century thinker Li Zhi 李贄 and his views on the role of self-expression and desire in a good life. With Rivi Handler-Spitz and Haun Saussy she has published the first book-length English language translation of Li Zhi’s writings\,\" A Book to Burn and A Book to Hide\" (Columbia UP\, June 2016)\; and (with Handler-Spitz and Saussy) is collaborating on a volume of critical essays on this major iconoclastic thinker (\"The Objectionable Li Zhi: Fiction\, Syncretism\, and Dissent in Late Ming China\"). In the Journal of Chinese Religions\, Dao: A Journal of Comparative Philosophy\, the Journal of Chinese Philosophy\, and edited volumes on women and Chinese thought she has published in the areas of Chinese feminisms\, space and place\, Chinese conceptions of childhood\, and comparative religions and philosophy. Professor Lee’s current major project\, provisionally entitled \"Play in China: The Trifling\, the Wicked\, and the Sacred\,\" examines changing views of play in China from ca. 200-1800 CE through a study of Chinese religious and philosophical classics\, the rich but too often neglected tradition of commentaries on these works\, as well as paintings and playthings. Her present interests include outreach to the larger community including children from K-12 on the subject of intercultural dialogue\; in collaboration she has established at Saint Louis University “The Matteo Ricci Religious Pluralism Project\,” mapping the changing religious landscape of the Greater St. Louis area\, and the “Ricci Speakers Series” on the subject of Christianity in early modern China.

In particular\, when one considers finite groups\, determining that the ring of invariants is finitely generated and finding a bound on the degree of a set of generators were problems addressed by Hilbert and Noether\, respectively. In the case of Abelian groups\, there is a conjecture for the bound that has been proven in some cases\, but still remains open in the general case. We discuss this problem and present a possible approach to it.

Although radiative heat transfer at macroscopic distances is well understood\, radiative heat transfer at the nanoscale remains largely unexplored. In this talk\, I will describe ongoing efforts in our group to experimentally elucidate nanoscale heat radiation. Specifically\, I will present our recent experimental work where we have addressed the following questions: 1) Can existing theories accurately describe radiative heat transfer in single nanometer sized gaps1? 2) What is the role of film thickness on nanoscale radiation2? and 3) Can radiative thermal conductances that are orders of magnitude larger than those between blackbodies be achieved3? In order to address these questions we have developed a variety of instrumentation including novel nanopositioning platforms and microdevices\, which will also be described. Finally\, I will briefly outline how these advances can be leveraged for future investigations of both nanoscale radiative heat transport and thermophotovoltaic energy conversion. \n\nReferences: \n\n[1] K.

Jack Jacobs argues in this talk that there was an inverse relationship\, among associates of the School\, between knowledge of Judaism and positive attitudes towards the State: the deeper their knowledge\, the stronger their critique of Israel.\n\nJack Jacobs is a professor of political science at John Jay College and the Graduate Center\, City University of New York. He is the author of On Socialists and “the Jewish Question” after Marx (1992)\, Bundist Counterculture in Interwar Poland (2009)\, and The Frankfurt School\, Jewish Lives\, and Antisemitism (2015)\, and is the editor of Jewish Politics in Eastern Europe: The Bund at 100 (2001)\, and\, most recently\, of Jews and the Political Left\, which will be published by Cambridge University Press. Professor Jacobs was a Fulbright Scholar at Tel Aviv University in 1996-1997\, and served as a Fulbright Scholar at the Vilnius Yiddish Institute in 2009.\n\nImage courtesy of the YIVO Institute for Jewish Research\n\nIf you have a disability that requires a reasonable accommodation\, contact the Judaic Studies office at 734-763-9047 at least two weeks prior to the event.

Problems typically arise from their high scattering and optical densities and sometimes from the large birefringence and dichroism. In this seminar I will describe the preparation of stable water suspensions of nanocrystalline compounds and demonstrate their use in the characterization of solid-state spectroscopic properties using simple transmission procedures. As a starting point we selected well-known photophysical probes with characteristic solid state properties to illustrate the fact that nanocrystals are a state of matter in transition between supramolecular structures and bulk solids. We gathered conclusive experimental evidence that the nanocrystals used in these experiments have the same morphology as the macroscopic specimens grown from solution. Analysis of size and size distribution by polarized microscopy\, dynamic light scattering (DLS) and probe microscopy methods (AFM\, SEM) indicates that optimal samples should be of the order or 200 nm in size\, which is below the wavelength of light used in most experiments\, and a key parameter for the method to work well. Examples will be shown to illustrate the use of nanocrystals to obtain detailed mechanistic information of excited state processes and highly selective reactions in crystals\, including a novel strategy for signal amplification with a gain based on a very unusual excited state chain reaction.\nMiguel Garcia-Garibay (UCLA) UID:31411-4260671@events.umich.edu URL:https://events.umich.edu/event/31411 CLASS:PUBLIC STATUS:CONFIRMED CATEGORIES:Chemistry,Science LOCATION:Chemistry Dow Lab - Chem 1640 CONTACT: END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20160927T181743 DTSTART;TZID=America/Detroit:20160927T161000 DTEND;TZID=America/Detroit:20160927T170000 SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Colloquium Series DESCRIPTION:\nI will outline how one starts with a symplectic manifold and defines a category enriched in local systems (up to homotopy) on this manifold. The construction relies on deformation quantization and is related to other methods of constructing a category from a symplectic manifolds\, such as the Fukaya category and the sheaf-theoretical microlocal category of Tamarkin. The talk will be accessible\, with main examples being the plane\, the cylinder\, and the two-torus.

Ten photographs will be displayed at the Institute for the Humanities and 40 at the Duderstadt Gallery.\n\nArtist's Statement: Bureaucratics is a project consisting of a book and a traveling exhibition that has so far been shown in museums and galleries in some twenty countries on five continents. The book and the exhibition contain 50 photographs and are the product of an anarchist’s heart\, a historian’s mind and an artist’s eye. Bureaucratics is a comparative photographic study of the culture\, rituals and symbols of state civil administrations and its servants in eight countries on five continents\, selected on the basis of political\, historical and cultural considerations: Bolivia\, China\, France\, India\, Liberia\, Russia\, the United States\, and Yemen. In each country\, I visited up to hundreds of offices of members of the executive in different services and at different levels. The visits were unannounced and the accompanying writer\, Will Tinnemans*\, by interviewing kept the employees from tidying up or clearing the office. That way\, the photos show what a local citizen would be confronted with when entering.\n\nThe photography has a conceptual\, typological approach reminding of August Sander’s ‘Menschen des 20 Jahrhunderts’ (‘People of the Twentieth Century’). Each subject is posed behind his or her desk. The photos all have a square format (fitting the subject)\, are shot from the same height (that of the client)\, with the desk – its front or side photographed parallel to the horizontal edges of the frame – serving as a bulwark protecting the representative of rule and regulation against the individual citizen\, the warm-blooded exception. They are full of telling details that sometimes reveal the way the state proclaims its power or the bureaucrat’s rank and function\, sometimes of a more private character and are accompanied by information such as name\, age\, function and salary. Though there is a high degree of humour and absurdity in these photos\, they also show compassion with the inhabitants of the state’s paper labyrinth. -Jan Banning UID:34117-4856574@events.umich.edu URL:https://events.umich.edu/event/34117 CLASS:PUBLIC STATUS:CONFIRMED CATEGORIES:Art,Multicultural,Visual Arts LOCATION:Duderstadt Center - Gallery CONTACT: END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20160908T134725 DTSTART;TZID=America/Detroit:20160927T170000 DTEND;TZID=America/Detroit:20160927T183000 SUMMARY:Reception / Open House:Exhibit Reception: Bureaucratics DESCRIPTION:Join us for a reception celebrating the exhibit Bureaucratics\, which displays photos from Dutch photographer Jan Banning that document offices in different bureaucracies around the world.\n\nIt's a comparative photographic study of the culture\, rituals and symbols of state civil administrations and its servants in eight countries on five continents\, selected on the basis of political\, historical and cultural considerations.

Unfortunately\, there are many basic things we don't know about its geometry and its symmetries: for example\,\n (1) Is every embedding of A^k into A^n linearizable?\n (2) What is the automorphism group of A^n?\n (3) (The Jacobian Conjecture) Is every endomorphism of A^n with invertible Jacobian an isomorphism?\nThe Abhyankar-Moh theorem provides answers to some of these and other related questions in dimension n=2. What's surprising is that even though the statement is purely algebraic\, the shortest known proof utilizes knot theory\, specifically that of torus knots. We will explain how torus knots naturally appear in algebraic geometry\, and present Rudolph's knot-theoretic proof of the Abhyankar-Moh theorem.
