SUMMARY:Exhibition:Gifts of Art presents Ann Arbor Street Paintings: Oil on Panel
DESCRIPTION:Carlye Crisler\, a well known Ann Arbor artist of en plein air (outdoor) painting\, is originally from the Bucktown district of Chicago. Her goal is to paint an environment or neighborhood by showing activities\, people and lighting at a particular time of day\, capturing an extended sense of place. In this collection of en plein air oil paintings\, Crisler has taken on complicated places with many textures and divisions of space. She embraces ambiguity with shapes of buildings broken by shadow and parts of them hidden by other things barely determined. In addition to a painter of urban landscapes\, Crisler also is a costumer\, figurative portrait painter and metal sculptor.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:The Leaders and the Rest: Boundaries and Belonging at the University of Michigan
DESCRIPTION:Who belongs at the University of Michigan? Who gets to draw its boundaries? Michigan students have asked and answered these questions for nearly two hundred years. Against a backdrop of local\, national\, and global change\, they have negotiated their place and redefined their responsibilities. At times\, students have debated among each other\, sparred with faculty and administrators\, negotiated with community members\, and contended with politicians. In so doing\, they have shaped the physical campus\, the student body\, the meaning of community\, and the university’s mission as a public institution.\n\nThis exhibit showcases key moments of student expression\, politics\, and culture from the first decades of the university’s existence in Ann Arbor\, through the upheavals of world wars\, and to the social and cultural turmoil of the late-twentieth century.\n\nOn display January 4-February 25\, 2017\, Hatcher Library Gallery (Room 100).\n\nThis LSA Bicentennial Theme Semester initiative is presented with support from the College of Literature\, Science\, and the Arts and the University of Michigan Bicentennial Office. Additional support provided by the Department of History and the Eisenberg Institute for Historical Studies.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Symposium: Ambiguous Territory: Architecture\, Landscape\, and the Postnatural
DESCRIPTION:Free and open to the public\nAmbiguous Territory: Architecture\, Landscape\, and the Postnatural is a symposium and concurrent exhibition that situates contemporary discourses and practices of architecture and landscape within the context of the Postnatural\; the era of climate change\, the Anthropocene\, and altered ecologies. 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

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Japanese Prints of Kabuki Theater from the Collection of the University of Michigan Museum of Art
DESCRIPTION:Kabuki actors were superstars in eighteenth- and nineteenth-century Japan. They were admired by passionate fans with an insatiable appetite for images of them\, fed by a publishing industry that mass-produced colorful woodblock prints of actors on stage that could be cheaply purchased as souvenirs of or substitutes for a theater experience. Japanese Prints of Kabuki Theater from the Collection of the University of Michigan Museum of Art presents a selection of these dramatic prints that connected fans to their idols\, including off- or backstage portrayals that satisfied fans’ voyeuristic curiosity about their favorite actors’ lives\, fantasy scenes of actors in unlikely groupings\, and even death portraits of especially famous actors. This introduction to the visual culture surrounding kabuki theater includes prints by major artists such as Utagawa Toyokuni (1769–1825)\, Utagawa Kunisada (1786–1865)\, Utagawa Kuniyoshi (1797–1861)\, and Toyohara Kunichika (1835–1900).\n\nLead support for this exhibition is provided by the University of Michigan Office of the Provost\, the National Endowment for the Arts\, the William T. and Dora G. Hunter Endowment\, AISIN\, the E. Rhodes and Leona B. Carpenter Foundation\, and the University of Michigan Center for Japanese Studies. Additional generous support is provided by the Japan Foundation and the University of Michigan Institute for Research on Women and Gender.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Moving Image: Landscape
DESCRIPTION:Moving Image: Landscape explores traditional notions of landscape through four very different time-based works by artists Jim Campbell\, Antti Laitinen\, Joanie Lemercier\, and Rick Silva.\n\nCampbell’s recent body of work\, including Seal Rock\, presents pixilated images of landscapes created with grids of LEDs. The low-resolution LEDs create a tension between representation and abstraction\, provoking viewers to interpret visual information on their own. In the three-channel video It’s My Island Laitinen builds his own island in the Baltic Sea by dragging two hundred sand bags into the water over a period of three months. The work explores ideas of nationality\, citizenship\, and identity as the artist creates his own single-citizen micro-nation. Lemercier’s computer-generated print Landforms uses patterns of black dots and projected light to create the illusion of three-dimensionality and movement when seen from a distance. The effects are more realistic than a still image\, but still unsettlingly artificial. Silva’s Render Garden explores the digitized landscape\, including remix and glitch aesthetics\, through software that endlessly generates new plant combinations.\n\nThroughout the next year UMMA will present a series of exhibitions drawn from the Borusan Contemporary Art Collection in Istanbul. The Borusan’s thirty-year-old collection includes significant works across a variety of genres\, and since 2011 it has focused on media arts. The works exhibited here address formal concerns such as abstraction and color\, and conceptual topics such as identity or ecological issues\; many represent traditional categories such as portraiture and landscape that find new resonance when explored through the strategies of dynamic technology.\nLead support for this exhibition is provided by the Susan and Richard Gutow Fund\,\nthe Herbert W. and Susan L. Johe Endowment\, and the University of Michigan Institute for the Humanities and Penny W. Stamps School of Art and Design.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Protecting Wisdom: Tibetan Book Covers from the MacLean Collection
DESCRIPTION:Protecting Wisdom: Tibetan Book Covers from the MacLean Collection is the first major exhibition to examine the subject of Tibetan book covers. For Tibetan Buddhists\, books are a divine presence in which the Buddha lives and reveals himself\, and they are venerated and handled with the utmost respect. The exhibition features 33 book covers dating from the eleventh to the eighteenth century that represent the glorious iconographic array and non-figural decoration typical of these sacred items. The majority of covers in the exhibition are Tibetan Buddhist\, but the exhibition also includes a rare Bon-religion cover and two covers from Mongolia\, as well as an important pair of covers produced circa 1411 for the Chinese Ming emperor Yongle. Protecting Wisdom presents a stunning visual display that illuminates a virtually unknown type of art\, one that will charm and intrigue both those familiar and unfamiliar with Tibetan art.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:The Aesthetic Movement
DESCRIPTION:Pictorialism was the first truly international photography movement\, and its practitioners\, among them Alfred Stieglitz\, Edward Steichen and Gertrude Käsebier\, sought to position photography as a legitimate aesthetic art form. They favored soft-focus images that drew upon the conventions of important artists and movements of the late nineteenth and early twentieth centuries—the influence of the Pre-Raphaelites\, James McNeill Whistler\, Japonisme\, and Art Nouveau are readily seen in the images on view in this exhibition.\n\nIn 1902 Alfred Stieglitz and other Pictorialist photographers founded the Photo-Secession in New York\, with Camera Work as the flagship periodical that published images by the group. Their poetic compositions drawn from contemporary life\, combined with the use of expensive and labor-intensive printing materials such as platinum and gum bichromate\, established these photographs as complex and nuanced works of high artistic quality. The exhibition features work by the principal Pictorialists\, including Stieglitz\, Steichen\, Käsebier\, Clarence White\, Paul Strand\, and Alvin Langdon Coburn.\n\nLead support for this exhibition is provided by the Herbert W. and Susan L. Johe Endowment.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Traces: Reconstructing the History of a Chokwe Mask
DESCRIPTION:The exhibition Traces focuses on one artwork from the Museum's African holdings: a Chokwe mask that was collected in 1905 near the Angolan city of Dundo by the German explorer Leo Frobenius. Its presence at UMMA today—almost 7\,500 miles away from the context in which it was originally created\, used\, and valued—is the result of a long and tumultuous journey\, spanning a hundred years\, three continents\, and numerous people whose lives are forever connected to the artifact that passed through their hands.\nTraces tells the stories of some of these individuals as it reconstructs the “biography” of the mask. Drawing on the Museum’s African art collection and complemented with national loans\, the exhibition is informed by research that exposes the mask’s many layers and restores some of its historical complexity. Visitors will be able to look closely\, and in great detail\, at this intriguing artwork and its fascinating story.\nLead support for this exhibition is provided by the James and Vivian Curtis Endowment. Additional generous support is provided by the University of Michigan Center for the Education of Women's Frances and Sydney Lewis Visiting Leaders Fund and African Studies Center.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Geometry & Physics
DESCRIPTION:The Landau-Ginzburg/Calabi-Yau correspondence refers to a conjectural equivalence between Gromov-Witten invariants (virtual counts of curves in hypersurfaces) and Fan-Jarvis-Ruan-Witten invariants (virtual counts of curves equipped with a root of their canonical bundle). Originally suggested by Witten\, the Landau-Ginzburg/Calabi-Yau correspondence was made mathematically precise and proved for genus-zero invariants by Chiodo and Ruan in 2008. Moreover\, Chiodo and Ruan suggested an explicit higher-genus correspondence written purely in terms of genus-zero data.\n\nIn this talk\, I will describe the genus-one verification of Chiodo and Ruan's higher-genus conjecture for the quintic threefold. The first hour will focus on discussing the background of the problem and previous results\, including our recent result that provides an explicit formula for genus-one FJRW invariants. The second hour will be devoted to discussing the higher-genus formulation of the Landau-Ginzburg/Calabi-Yau correspondence in terms of quantized symplectic operators\, and the proof of the restriction to the genus-one invariants. This is a report on joint work with Shuai Guo. Speaker(s): Dustin Ross (San Francisco State)

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:HEP-Astro Seminar | Analyzing MicroBooNE Data with Convolutional Neural Networks
DESCRIPTION:The MicroBooNE experiment consists of a liquid argon time-projection chamber (LArTPC) that sits 470 m from the origin of the Booster Neutrino beam at Fermi National Lab. The goal of the experiment is to advance our knowledge of neutrino-nucleus cross sections and shed light on the MiniBooNE low energy anomaly. The latter is one of several anomalies seen in neutrino oscillation experiments that have been interpreted as hints for non-standard neutrinos. I will discuss the status of MicroBooNE and some of its achievements after one year of data taking. In particular\, I will focus on one effort to use convolutional neural networks (CNNs) to reconstruct and select neutrino events. CNNs\, a type of machine learning algorithm\, are often the state-of-the-art approach in many computer vision tasks. For example\, CNNs have found applications ranging from automated human face recognition to real-time object detection for self-driving cars. I’ll describe our first steps in applying CNNs to the task of analyzing neutrino events in LArTPCs.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Group\, Lie and Number Theory
DESCRIPTION:We give a closed formula for the sum of all Hecke eigenforms on Gamma_0(N)\, multiplied by their odd period polynomials in two variables\, as a single product of Jacobi theta series for any squarefree level N. We also show that for N = 2\, 3 and 5 this formula completely determines the Fourier expansions of all Hecke eigenforms of all weights on Gamma_0(N). This is a generalization of a result of Zagier in 1991 for modular forms of level one.\n\nThis is a joint work with Yoonkyung Park and Don Zagier. Speaker(s): YoungJu Choie (POSTECH)

SUMMARY:Auditions:Auditions for \"The Pirates of Penzance!\"
DESCRIPTION:The University of Michigan Gilbert & Sullivan Society (UMGASS) is holding auditions for The Pirates of Penzance\; or\, the Slave of Duty\, music by A.S. Sullivan\, book and lyrics by W.S. Gilbert\, on Monday\, Tuesday\, and Wednesday\, January 9\, 10\, and 11\, 2017\, from 7:00 – 10:00 pm at the Student Theater Arts Complex (STAC) at 1202 Kipke Dr. (near Crisler Center and the U-M Stadium).\n\n\"The Pirates have gathered at Penzance to celebrate the natal day of one of their own - pirate-in-training Frederic\, who is to be released from his indentures on his 21st birthday. Frederic\, who values the concept of 'duty' above all else\, has vowed\, upon his emancipation\, to vanquish his former comrades. Soon the Pirates find themselves preparing for battle with Major-General Stanley\, who escaped from their clutches by prevarication\, even as Frederic finds himself falling in love with Mabel\, the Major-General's daughter. Then suddenly\, new alliances are turned topsy-turvy when Frederic discovers he might not have completely fulifilled the terms of his indentures\, and his duty may once again place him on the side of piracy\, and against both his future father-in-law\, and his chosen bride!\"\n\nAll principal and ensemble roles are available for SATB\, including Frederic (Tenor)\, Mabel (Soprano)\, Major-General Stanley (Comic Baritone)\, Ruth (Alto)\, The Pirate King (Baritone)\, the Sergeant of Police (Bass Baritone)\, and others.\n\nAuditioners are encouraged to attend the UMGASS Mass Meeting on Sunday\, January 8\, 2017 at 7:00 pm in the Kalamazoo Room at the Michigan League\, 911 N. University Avenue\, on the U-M Central Campus\, to hear about the production from the directors and designers\, and to sign up from prime audition appointments. Audition times are also available by e-mail at umgassexec@umich.edu\, and walk-ins are always welcome on audition nights.\n\nFor the audition\, please prepare ~32 bars of a selection from musical theater\, comic opera\, or opera\, in English\, and bring a copy of the sheet music for the (provided) accompanist. Also be prepared to read scenes from the libretto. Callbacks may be held on Thursday\, January 12 at 7:00 pm. Production dates for The Pirates of Penzance are April 13-16\, 2017 at the Lydia Mendelssohn Theater in the Michigan League building.\n\nCome join us for a rollicking good time!
