SUMMARY:Exhibition:Gifts of Art presents Avian Vessels: Mixed Media Sculpture
DESCRIPTION:Cincinnati based sculptor Karen Heyl has been professionally sculpting stone since 1984. 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.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Gifts of Art presents Divided Images: Fiber
DESCRIPTION:Jill Ault is an Ann Arbor studio artist working in fiber\, primarily quilts\, with a BFA degree in painting from Eastern Michigan University. Her quilts are constructed of multiple copies of an image: a photograph\, a graphic design or a painting. She digitally prints variations of the image on fabric and divides the copies into many small squares (no two alike). When she carefully reassembles and sews together the squares\, parts of the image seem to move across and down the surface of the quilt. Ault exhibits nationally at fiber and quilt shows\, such as Quilt National in Athens\, Ohio and Fiberart International in Pittsburgh\, Pennsylvania.

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. Kogan is considered the first prominent female industrial designer in the United States\, a founder of the profession\, and one of the 20th century's most significant designers. Her design aesthetic was heavily influenced by the geometric and streamlined shapes of Art Deco. Belle Kogan Associates\, her New York–based studio\, was the first American female-led design firm. Her contracts with Red Wing Potteries produced over 400 different art pottery shapes from the late 1930s to the early 1960s\, as well as several dinnerware and kitchenware lines. Belle Kogan and her firm designed products not only in ceramics but also clocks and small appliances\, glassware\, and pieces in silver\, plastics\, wrought iron and wood.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Foreshadowing - Endangered and Threatened Plant Species
DESCRIPTION:A unique exhibit of botanical portraits that illuminates native and invasive plant species in a different light. 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.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Catie Newell: Overnight
DESCRIPTION:Detroit-based architect Catie Newell’s work is focused on the tactile\, sensory qualities of the materials we use to build things: their texture\, density\, or malleability. 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.

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:Other:The Silence Shoot
DESCRIPTION:The Silence Shoot started out as a small project in 2011 out of an apartment in Mount Pleasant\, Michigan. The goal was to bring awareness to individuals who have suffered from bullying\, depression\, loneliness to the point of suicide attempts. It is important to ensure people they are not alone in this world. The Silence Shoot offers individuals the opportunity to show up as their authentic selves and capture these moments in a photoshoot.\n  \nThe concept behind these images is to show both individuality\, but also unity. Participants are encouraged to dress how they wish\, and pose how they wish\, to show that being yourself is nothing to be ashamed of\, but the images are edited all the same to show the solid stance of each person in what The Silence Shoot stands for. \n  \nRed duct tape is used to represent the silencing that bullying condones a person to physically\, mentally\, and emotionally. It also represents the community that is willing to stand as survivors of bullying or allies to those who have survived. We use red to also symbolize the bloodshed that bullying can cause in an act of violence either on another person\, or on one’s self. \n  \nThe black and white editing of everything besides the red tape is a concept that allows the image to show our oneness in the love we have for those being bullied\, and the survivors from said torment. \n\nFor more about The Silence Shoot\, visit www.thesilenceshoot.com.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:Reclaiming the Atmospheric Commons:  A New Strategy for Climate Policy Success?
DESCRIPTION:Monday\, October 3\, 2016\n11:30am to 1:00pm (pizza provided 11:20am for first 100 guests)\nGerald R. Ford School of Public Policy\nWeill Hall\, Betty Ford Classroom (1110)\n735 South State Street\nAnn Arbor\, MI 48109\n\nFree and open to the public.\n\nSponsored by:\nCenter for Local\, State\, and Urban Policy (CLOSUP)\n \nCo-Sponsors: \nThe University of Michigan’s Graham Sustainability Institute\, Energy Institute\, Program in the Environment (PitE)\, and Evironmental Law & Policy Program (ELPP)\n\n\nDescription:\nThis talk explores a surprising new strategy for climate change policy that has emerged in the last 10 years: “reclaiming the atmospheric commons.”  The strategy combines the idea of making polluters pay for their greenhouse gas emissions with the additional idea of using those revenues to generate tangible\, broadly distributed public benefits.  The strategy emerged in the creation of the first major U.S. climate change policy\, the Regional Greenhouse Gas Initiative (RGGI)\, in 2008 and has since expanded to other climate policy venues in the United States and abroad. The talk also considers how a focus on new egalitarian principles for any use of the “atmospheric commons” by private companies may also facilitate the implementation of future state climate change and energy policies\, in particular response to U.S. EPA Clean Power Plan regulations.\n\n\nAbout the speaker:\nLeigh Raymond is Professor of Political Science and Director of the Center for the Environment at Purdue University. He received his Ph.D. in Environmental Science\, Policy\, and Management from U.C. Berkeley\, and a B.A. in Philosophy from Yale University. Dr. Raymond’s research focuses on influence of norms of justice and fairness on the design and implementation off market-based environmental policies\, including emissions trading policies to address climate change. He has also done research on political communication\, policy adoption\, and implementation in a wide range of other environmental policy areas\, including environmental risk management\, renewable fuels\, conservation tillage\, and biodiversity protection on private lands.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:CMENAS Colloquium Series. Engaging the Discourse of Universality: A Historical Perspective on the Politics of Human Rights in North Africa
DESCRIPTION:The foundational instruments of the modern human rights framework were negotiated in the 1950s\, as many colonies were achieving independence. North African states gave support to the human rights treaties\, but for more than a decade the discourse of human rights was controlled by the state. This lecture will trace the spread of human rights ideas to and through North Africa with particular attention to the decade of the 1980s\, when a local human rights movement flowered in the Maghreb. \n    \nSusan Waltz is both a scholar and a practitioner in the field of international human rights. She began her career as an area specialist\, focusing on the North African countries of Tunisia\, Morocco\, and Algeria. Over the past twenty years she has conducted research on North African regional politics and the local human rights movement. More recently\, her research has focused on the historical origins of international human rights instruments and the political processes that produced them. She is co-author of the website Human Rights Advocacy and the History of International Human Rights Standards\, hosted by The Gerald R. Ford School of Public Policy at the University of Michigan.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Gifts of Art presents Michigan Wonderland Gems & Jewels
DESCRIPTION:Betsy Lehndorff’s jewelry is influenced by her life in Hubbard Lake in northeastern Michigan. Using her stone cutting and silversmithing skills\, she takes on six subjects that impact her isolated world: water\, winter\, plants\, critters\, rocks and the heavens. Her work\, often representational and sometimes narrative\, challenges the idea of jewelry as a status symbol. Lehndorff was born and raised in Ann Arbor\, and lived in Colorado until 2012. She is a granddaughter of renowned architect Albert Kahn (Hill Auditorium and the “Old Main” U-M Hospital) and daughter of Dr. Edgar A. Kahn\, who headed the neurosurgery department at the U-M Hospital in the 1960s.

SUMMARY:Performance:Dance Modern Technique Class: Zhao Jilong
DESCRIPTION:In this workshop\, participants will learn some of the fundamentals of Qigong\, which can help align mind and body for an enlightened approach to physical skill\, grace\, and power. Qigong is an ancient Chinese art form of exploring and mastering subtle movement in our bodies. In traditional Chinese dance\, many of the concepts of movement and structure are adapted from Qigong. Zhao Jilong has been practicing Qigong and Kung Fu since he was five years old. His specialty is internal power\, which includes things similar to the “five-point-palm-exploding-heart-technique” from Kill Bill\, but also seemingly unrelated skills\, such as writing calligraphy and playing the zither. Master Zhao is also the host of several popular Chinese TV documentaries about traditional Chinese martial arts\, as well as the K-1 Global Kung Fu Ambassador. \n\nThe Zhao Jilong Residency is sponsored by Lieberthal-Rogel Center for Chinese Studies.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Complex Analysis\, Dynamics and Geometry
DESCRIPTION:In this talk\, the qualitative dynamics of the vector fields in the complex plane defined by complex polynomials is studied. The ultimate goal is to give a description of the possible bifurcations that can occur\, i.e.\, given an arbitrary point c in parameter space\, what are the topological-equivalence classes that intersect every neighborhood of c? The goal of this talk is to describe the non-splitting bifurcations: the bifurcations that can occur when when the multiplicities of the equilibrium points are preserved under small perturbation. It will be proved that any non-splitting bifurcation can be realized as a composition of simpler bifurcations from a finite list. Speaker(s): Kealey Dias (Bronx Community College)

DESCRIPTION:On the first half of my talk\, I'll focus on basic concepts about B-branes and their central charges and how they arise in physics and mathematics. In particular I'll present the gauge linear model setting which allows for defining quantities in full stringy Kahler moduli of certain Calabi-Yaus (CY). In the second half I'll show some examples and motivate an intrinsic definition of the central charges\, based on field theory data. I'll put particular emphasis on Landau-Ginzburg (orbifold) phases of CY hypersurfaces and comparison with results in FJRW theory. Speaker(s): Mauricio Romo (IAS)

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:HEP-Astro Seminar | Hadronization Studies at Belle
DESCRIPTION:Between 1999 and 2010\, the Belle experiment\, located at KEK in Tsukuba\, Japan\, took e+e- annihilation data mostly near the Upsilon(4S) resonance. Due to the size of the dataset\, Belle sampled a record breaking 1ab-1 delivered by the B-factory KEK-B\, as well as the precision instrumentation and PID capabilities\, this dataset represents a milestone for our studies of non-perturbative QCD effects in hadronization. \n\nOne focus of the Belle program is the precision measurement of Parton Fragmentation Functions\, which parametrize non-perturbative hadronization effects in QCD factorization formulas if final state hadrons are detected in semi-inclusive measurements\, e.g. in deep inelastic scattering or proton-proton collisions. \n\nIn particular\, Belle results sensitive to transverse polarization dependent fragmentation functions\, which can serve as ‘quark polarimeters’\, play a crucial role in our understanding of the transverse spin structure of the nucleon. Beyond determining Fragmentation Functions\, the study of hadronization allows us access to perturbative and non-perturbative QCD effects\, which is complimentary to using the nucleon as our QCD laboratory. \n\nThis talk will present the latest results from th ongoing program of hadronization studies at Belle. I will also give an outlook towards related physics opportunities at Belle II\, which will start data taking next year\, sampling about 40 times the luminosity that Belle did.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Integrable Systems and Random Matrix Theory
DESCRIPTION:In this lecture\, we consider the famed doubly-infinite Toda lattice which is completely-integrable. We present the inverse scattering transform method for the solution of the Cauchy initial value problem for sufficiently decaying initial data. As is well known\, the Toda lattice equations can be recast as an isospectral flow on Jacobi matrices and this gives rise to the existence of a Lax pair. Thus we move on to cover scattering theory for Jacobi matrices\, introduce the scattering transform and scattering data associated with a Jacobi matrix. Then we cover the time evolution of the scattering data under the dynamics induced by the Toda lattice equations and present the Riemann-Hilbert formulation of the inverse scattering transform. We review some results on long-time asymptotics of the solutions of the Cauchy initial problem for sufficiently decaying initial data. Time permitting\, we plan to consider Hamiltonian perturbations of the Toda lattice. Speaker(s): Deniz Bilman (University of Michigan)

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Student Combinatorics Seminar
DESCRIPTION:For any k \times n matrix\, the collection of k-element subsets of columns which are linearly independent forms a matroid. Linear independence of columns is\, of course\, equivalent to non-vanishing of the corresponding determinant\, or \"maximal minor.\" If we impose the additional condition that all non-zero maximal minors are positive\, then we get a special kind of matroid--a positroid!\n\nIn this talk\, I will show how positroids are indexed by Postnikov's \"Le Diagrams\,\" and I will explain how to use planar networks to generate all the matrices corresponding to a given positroid. I will try to indicate some of the reasons why positroids are such a nice class of matroids. Speaker(s): Gabriel Frieden (University of Michigan)

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Group\, Lie and Number Theory
DESCRIPTION:Shahidi local coefficients associated with  parabolic inductions on  quasi-split reductive groups defined over a local field are the core of the Langlands-Shahidi method. These meromorphic invariants arise from the uniqueness of Whittaker model. Among their local applications one finds irreducibility results and a formula for  Plancherel measures. In the context of metaplectic groups\, uniqueness of Whittaker model does not hold anymore. Yet\, an analog for these coefficients exists. This analog goes back to Kazhdan-Patterson seminal work on the exceptional representations and is often referred to as a scattering matrix.  In this talk we shall give new and simple interpretation to these matrices for coverings of p-adic SL(2)  and relate them to Tate-type gamma factors. We shall also give some local applications. This talk should be accessible also for non-experts. Speaker(s): Dani Szpruch (Howard University)

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:Near Eastern Studies Lecture Series
DESCRIPTION:Iranian censorship forbids depictions of unrelated men and women touching one another. Given this\, Western scholars generally view Iranian cinema as poor territory for exploring love\, sex\, and desire\, with some even suggesting that pornography and Iranian cinema are two contrasting entities. Granted\, it is difficult to find a direct representation of love and sex in Iranian movies but this limitation does not mean that Iranian cinema is devoid of such topics. In fact\, as Hamid Naficy and Shahla Haeri both argue\, Iranian directors have proposed very sophisticated\, complex\, and ingenious methods for discussing eroticism\, love\, and passion in their movies. When faced with strict censorship and social and moral barriers\, what methods have Iranian directors developed in order to address love\, desire\, and passion? In what ways do these methods emancipate or emasculate Iranian artists in their quest to express love and eroticism? Ganjavie attempts to answer these questions\, arguing that it makes little sense to say that any authoritative system with a system of hegemony could prevent its citizens from expressing this impulse in their works since the sexual instinct is life’s drive and only at the moment of death can humans deny its existence. What is essential\, radical\, and utopian is to read the meaning of eroticism in Iranian cinema through the specific culture in which the drive has been developed and shaped.\n \nAmir Ganjavie\, a PhD student in communication and culture at York University\, is a Toronto-based writer\, cultural citric\, and festival director. Fascinated by the issue of alternative and utopian space in modern urban settings\, Ganjavie has published several articles and two books\, one on utopia (Le rôle de la pensée utopique dans l’aménagement des villes de demain) and the other on walkable neighborhoods (Pour une ville qui marche). Aside from academic life\, he writes for Filmint\, Mubi\, Senses of Cinema\, Offscreen\, and Brightlight and also works as the CEO of Cine-Iran festival\, an annual festival of contemporary Iranian cinema held in Toronto\, Canada. He has recently co-edited a special volume on alternative Iranian cinema for film International and edited Humanities of the Other\, an essay collection on the Dardanne Brothers. He is now working on a special issue on Iranian cinema and eroticism for Asian Cinema journal.

SUMMARY:Performance:An Acoustic Evening with John Hiatt
DESCRIPTION:John Hiatt has been called the American Elvis Costello. His remarkably fertile and consistent songwriting career dates back to the New Wave era and has passed through phases of country\, blues\, Americana\, and more without losing its basic flavor. To put it simply\, there's no finer wordsmith in American rock and roll\, and few other artists in any genre whose songs reward repeated hearings to such a degree. Maybe that's why John Hiatt is one of the most popular and durable concert draws around\, not only in the U.S. but all over northern Europe\, where he's inspired several tribute bands. This is a rare solo show from John\, and a still rarer show in a small venue—the perfect place to go deeply into the music of one of the greats of American music.
