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.

The symposium asks: In a time when humans have been fundamentally displaced from their presumed place of privilege\, philosophically as well as experientially\, should the disciplines of architecture and landscape architecture consider displacing themselves as well\, in order to establish new affiliations and avail new ways to approach contemporary questions of design in relation to the environment?\nBy bringing designers and scholars from these fields together the symposium and exhibition will highlight projects and ideas that are engaged with these issues from a variety of perspectives\, ranging from scale and experience to questions of matter. Participants will present research and work that use tactics of mediation to understand\, imagine\, interrupt\, and invent artifacts that exist at the large spatial and slow temporal scale of the Anthropocene.\nAmbiguous Territory will present design ideas and proposals from architects\, artists\, and landscape architects whose work challenges their disciplinary boundaries and long-held anthropocentric orientation and redefines the relationship between built and natural environments in an era of ecological anxiety.\nChairs:       \nKathy Velikov\, Associate Professor at the University of Michigan and principal of RVTR\nCathryn Dwyre\, Visiting Associate Professor at Pratt institute School of Architecture and partner at pneumastudio\nChris Perry\, Associate Professor at Rensselaer Architecture and partner at pneumastudio\nDavid Salomon\, Assistant Professor of Art History at Ithaca College.\nKeynotes:\nLiam Young\, urbanist\, designer and futurist\; founder of the futures think tank Tomorrows Thoughts Today (tomorrowsthoughtstoday.com)\; the ‘Unknown Fields Division’ (unknownfieldsdivision.com) at the Architectural Association in London\, and the ‘Fiction and Entertainment’ program at SciArc\nDavid Gissen\, author\, historian\, and Professor of Architecture and Visual and Critical Studies at the California College of the Arts and co-director of the Experimental History Project (http://davidgissen.org/)\nFor a full list of speakers and bios\, please visit the Ambiguous Territory symposium web page. \nAmbiguous Territory Symposium Schedule\nAll events in Taubman College Commons unless otherwise noted\nThursday October 5th\n5:00pm\nAmbiguous Territory Exhibition Reception\n(Taubman College Gallery)\n6:00pm\nKeynote Lecture: Liam Young\n(Art + Architecture Auditorium)\n \nFriday October 6th (all events occuring in The Commons)\n9:00am\nCoffee\n9:30am\nWelcome: Dean Jonathan Massey\nIntroductory Remarks: Associate Dean of Research and Creative Practice Geoffrey Thün\nSymposium Introduction: Kathy Velikov\n10:00am\nAtmospheric Mediations Panel\nIntroduction: Kathy Velikov\nSpeaker 1: Christopher Hight\nSpeaker 2: Lydia Kallipoliti\nSpeaker 3: Sean Lally\nRespondent: Meredith Miller\nRoundtable Discussion\n12:00pm\nLunch Break (lunch not provided)\n1:00pm\nBiologic Mediations Panel\nIntroduction: David Salomon\nSpeaker 1: Jennifer Peeples\nSpeaker 2: Linsdey french\nSpeaker 3: Ricardo de Ostos\nRespondent: Ellie Abrons\nRoundtable Discussion\n3:00pm\nCoffee Break\n3:30pm\nGeologic Mediations Panel\nIntroduction: Cathryn Dwyre and Chris Perry\nSpeaker 1: Alessandra Ponte\nSpeaker 2: Bradley Cantrell\nSpeaker 3: Rania Ghosn and El Hadi Jazairy\nRespondent: Mark Lindquist\nRoundtable Discussion\n5:30pm\nBreak\n6:00pm\nKeynote Lecture: David Gissen\nAmbiguous Territory Exhibition \nSeptember 27th – October 18th 2017\nUniversity of Michigan Taubman College Gallery\nDecember 2018 – January 2019\nPratt Manhattan Gallery\, New York UID:44929-10012276@events.umich.edu URL:https://events.umich.edu/event/44929 CLASS:PUBLIC STATUS:CONFIRMED CATEGORIES:Architecture,Exhibition,symposium LOCATION:Art and Architecture Building CONTACT: END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20160915T082349 DTSTART;TZID=America/Detroit:20161005T100000 DTEND;TZID=America/Detroit:20161005T163000 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.

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:30043-3321488@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:20161005T110000 DTEND;TZID=America/Detroit:20161005T170000 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.

In particular\, I will derive the one-dimensional holographic dual for both running and constant dilaton solutions\, and I will discuss the connection with the Sachdev-Ye-Kitaev model. Finally\, I will explain how this dilaton gravity model provides a holographic description for four-dimensional asymptotically conformally AdS_2 x S^2 non-extremal black holes.

Speaking into this self-awareness can help other people address uncertainties in their lives. As a journalist\, Delece Smith-Barrow’s stories and reports hold strong personal interest for her. As Smith-Barrow researches and runs stories on these topics\, she’s realized that people\, both near and far\, share her perspective. By exposing herself\, she is able to voice questions they have\, but don't feel comfortable voicing. Involving herself in the quest for answers\, she is able to offer a story-telling perspective in national media that isn’t often seen. \n\nDelece Smith-Barrow is a higher education reporter at U.S. News & World Report\, where she covers admissions challenges and trends\, and the connection between higher education and employment. She has also been a producer\, online writer and editor\, and reporter for a wide range of issues. She is a Knight-Wallace Fellow at Michigan this year. \n\nCome to meet her and discuss sharing stories\, journalism\, and more. Want to sample her work?

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.

Following Hobson's approach\, I will reformulate this problem as a constrained Skorokhod embedding problem\, and show a natural supperreplication result. Furthermore\, I will show a monotonicity principle for the constrained SEP\, giving a geometric characterisation of the support of the optimisers (in the spirit of Beiglboeck\, Cox and Huesmann (2014)) which allows to link the additional information with geometric properties of the optimizers to the constrained embedding problem. Surprisingly\, for certain types of information the absence of arbitrage can be easily checked by considering only unconstrained solutions.

One way to encode some of these singularities is to look at the summands appearing in the decomposition theorem. In this talk\, we focus on the subvarieties of the target of the Hitchin map that support such summands. I will report on work on done in the case of SL(n) and in joint work in progress with J. Heinloth and L. Migliorini in the case of GL(n). My goal is to walk the audience through the main concepts\, results and techniques.

This inequality states that for every compact set A\,B in R^n\, one has Vol(A+B)^{1/n} >= Vol(A)^{1/n} + Vol(B)^{1/n}\, where Vol denotes Lebesgue measure\, and A+B = {a+b : a in A\, b in B} is the Minkowski sum of A and B. The class of log-concave measures contains fundamental probability measures\, such as the Gaussian measure\, the exponential measure\, and the uniform measure. In this talk\, we show that the Brunn-Minkowski inequality is valid for log-concave measures\, under symmetry assumptions. We then discuss some applications to new isoperimetric-type inequalities.

Most examples in the literature\, exemplified by the well studied pentapyridyl PY5 ligand introduced by Stack and Feringa\, are overall neutral donors\, rendering their transition metal complexes dicationic. We have incorporated two borate functions into this framework\, rendering the ligand dianionic. This more electron rich donor supports neutral M(II) complexes and makes higher oxidation state derivatives more accessible. This talk will explore the coordination chemistry of these ligands with first row transition metals like Ti\, Fe\, Co and Ni and discuss our efforts to generate and characterize higher oxidation state complexes that are key intermediates in catalytic processes involving\, for example\, C-H activation or oxygen reduction.\nWarren Piers (University of Calgary) UID:31404-4251851@events.umich.edu URL:https://events.umich.edu/event/31404 CLASS:PUBLIC STATUS:CONFIRMED CATEGORIES:Chemistry,Science LOCATION:Chemistry Dow Lab - 1640 CONTACT: END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20160919T132550 DTSTART;TZID=America/Detroit:20161005T170000 DTEND;TZID=America/Detroit:20161005T183000 SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:Annual Distinguished Lecture on Europe.

Uxbal Encarnación—father\, husband\, political insurgent—refuses to leave behind the revolutionary ideals and lush tomato farms of his sun-soaked homeland. His wife Soledad takes young Isabel and Ulises hostage and flees with them to America\, leaving behind Uxbal for the promise of a better life. But instead of settling with fellow Cuban immigrants in Miami’s familiar heat\, Soledad pushes further north into the stark\, wintry landscape of Hartford\, Connecticut. There\, in the long shadow of their estranged patriarch\, now just a distant memory\, the exiled mother and her children begin a process of growth and transformation.\n\nEach struggles and flourishes in their own way: Isabel\, spiritually hungry and desperate for higher purpose\, finds herself tethered to death and the dying in uncanny ways. Ulises is bookish and awkwardly tall\, like his father\, whose memory haunts and shapes the boy’s thoughts and desires. Presiding over them both is Soledad. Once consumed by her love for her husband\, she begins a tempestuous new relationship with a Dutch tobacco farmer. But just as the Encarnacións begin to cultivate their strange new way of life\, Cuba calls them back. Uxbal is alive\, and waiting.\n\nBreathtaking\, soulful\, and profound\, The Mortifications is an intoxicating family saga and a timely\, urgent expression of longing for one’s true homeland.\n\n“A revelatory tale of Cuba and America\, of faith and family\, of the spirit and the flesh\, The Mortifications is a debut remarkable for its wise and scrupulous insight into the human heart. Palacio feelingly reminds us that all immigrants are also exiles\, wounded with loss\, striving to make a home even as they yearn for the one they’ve left behind.” —Peter Ho Davies UID:34725-4978905@events.umich.edu URL:https://events.umich.edu/event/34725 CLASS:PUBLIC STATUS:CONFIRMED CATEGORIES:Books,Literature,Writing LOCATION:Off Campus Location CONTACT: END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20161101T172213 DTSTART;TZID=America/Detroit:20161005T190000 DTEND;TZID=America/Detroit:20161005T203000 SUMMARY:Meeting:Peer Led Support Group Meetings DESCRIPTION:SAPAC's Peer-led Support Group is a weekly\, drop-in and confidential group for survivors to express concerns and find support among peers in a comfortable setting facilitated by student staff.
