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:Banner Moments: The National Anthem in American Life
DESCRIPTION:The new Ford Presidential Library lobby exhibit\, curated by University of Michigan musicologist Mark Clague\, illustrates through interpretive panels\, historical documents and photographs\, the cultural 200-year history of “The Star-Spangled Banner” (1814–2014). The tale that emerges demonstrates the power of music and poetry to spark the social imagination and thus create a sense of shared community.\n\nInspired by the successful defense of Baltimore\, Maryland from British attack in September 1814\, lawyer and amateur poet Francis Scott Key penned his now famous lyric. Rather than extraordinary\, Key’s creative impulse was typical of early America’s broadside ballad tradition in which new words were written to fit well known tunes. The result\, however\, was far from everyday—Key could not have predicted that his song would survive the moment\, yet become his nation’s singular anthem.\n\nFollow the “The Star-Spangled Banner” from the moments leading up to September 14\, 1814 through the present day and explore the social history of our national song.\nMarch 2017 to September 2017 \n\nMonday - Friday. 8:45 am - 4:45 pm\nClosed all Federal holidays.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Another Country
DESCRIPTION:The scenes in Another Country emerge from daily images of conflict and uprising. Discarded shoes\, tarps and handmade signs that mark the post-industrial landscape become part roadside memorial and part doomsday prophecy. These temporary sculptures - set against the backdrop of environmental decline - evoke a cautionary tale of hazmat crews and oil soaked shorelines. \n\nIf there is a place for both apathy and active resistance in the way forward to a better future\, Another Country carries the tension that’s in-between. Inspired by the visual resistance of liberation parties\, past and present\, it urges us to remember why we fight.\n\nShanna Merola is an artist\, activist\, and documentary photographer. Working for civil rights attorneys\, she photographs first amendment activity at protests and facilitates workshops on best practices during police encounters. Over the past five years she has been a human rights observer for social justice movements across the country - from the deeply embattled struggle over water rights in Detroit and Flint\, Michigan - to the frontlines of uprisings in Ferguson\, MO and Standing Rock\, ND. Her collages and constructed landscapes are informed by these rallies - from direct actions against fracking companies to the privatization of water both globally and locally. She is currently working on a collaborative production of Know Your Rights Theatre\, inspired by the politically radical puppet troupes of the 1960’s.\n\nMerola received an MFA in Photography from Cranbrook Academy of Art and a BFA in Photo and Film from Virginia Commonwealth University. She lives and works in Detroit\, Michigan.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Black Bodies\, Social Justice\, and the Archive
DESCRIPTION:In association with the Raoul Wallenberg Memorial Lecture featuring civil rights lawyer and social justice advocate Bryan Stevenson\, the Institute for the Humanities and the University of Michigan School of Information will host an open seminar on the relationships between the new conceptions of the archive and the advancement of social justice causes in the United States. \n\nAmidst the rejection of facts and historical perspective\, progress in addressing structural and overt racism\, police brutality\, and inequitable incarceration requires a critical interrogation of what an archive is\, where it lives or dies\, and how it should persist and be used. The day-long seminar will bring together a group of junior scholars from around the country whose work is deeply informed by the witnessing power of the archive – from body cam data to hidden historical records – to illuminate and address contemporary social justice challenges. \n\nThe event is free and open to the public.\n\nPhoto: A jar of soil from the site of each lynching in Alabama\, at the Equal Justice Initiative in Montgomery\, Alabama.

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:Chicana Fotos: Nancy De Los Santos
DESCRIPTION:Exhibition Dates: Friday\, February 17 - April 14\, 2017\nOpening Reception: Friday\, February 17\, 2017 from 4 - 7 pm\, featuring a performance by Ballet Folklórico De Detroit at 6 pm.\nGallery Talk by Nancy De Los Santos and exhibition curator Maria Cotera: Friday\, February 17\, 2017 at 12 pm\, Walter P. Reuther Library Woodcock Conference Room\nWalter P. Reuther Library at Wayne State University\n5401 Cass Ave\, Detroit\, MI 48202\n\nBorn and raised in Chicago by Mexican-American parents\, Nancy De Los Santos is an accomplished filmmaker and proud “Chicana from Chicago” who has dedicated her life and career to rewriting and redefining the image of Latina/os in the mainstream media. Among her most celebrated works are as Co-Writer and Co-Producer of The Bronze Screen: 100 Years of the Latin Image in Hollywood Cinema\, with Susan Racho and Alberto Dominguez\, and as Associate Producer on the feature film Selena.\n\nIn Chicana Fotos\, an exhibit of evocative photographs taken in the 1970s\, we meet a very different Nancy: a woman armed with a camera\, capturing historic events in the struggles for social justice of the time. Nancy’s photographs of Chicano Movement marches and rallies\, farmworker mobilizations in Chicago and Texas\, and Latina organizing in the Midwest and internationally offer a priceless documentary view of Latina/o politics in the 1970s. Her more intimate pictures of everyday Latina/o life capture what it was like to live through a period of radical social transformation. The exhibit includes rare photographs of UFW organizing activities in Chicago\, the Texas Farmworker Pilgrimage of 1977\, and the first ever International Women’s Year Conference in Mexico City in 1975. These images are supplemented by never before exhibited documents from the Walter P. Reuther UFW Collection.\n\nChicana Fotos was curated by University of Michigan professor Maria Cotera (with assistance from Pau Nava) and designed by students and faculty of the UM Stamps School of Art & Design. Stamps School faculty Hannah Smotrich and Katie Rubin co-taught the collaborative\, interdisciplinary Exhibition Design class with students Ian Crowley\, Rachel Dawson\, Emilie Farrugia\, Kelsi Franzino\, Andrew Han\, Jack Hyland\, Maggie Lemak\, Megan Lewin-Smith\, Katie Mongoven\, Olivia Moore\, Pau Nava\, and Sarah Wolf.\n\nChicana Fotos is a collaboration between the El Museo del Norte\, the Chicana por mi Raza Digital Archive\, the Stamps School of Art & Design and the Walter P. Reuther Library at Wayne State University.\n\nThe Walter P. Reuther Library of Labor and Urban Affairs at Wayne State University is the largest labor archive in North America. In addition to internationally significant collections on the history of the North American labor movement\, the Reuther Library holds the official records of Wayne State University\, as well as extensive records documenting urban affairs\, civic life\, civil rights\, ethnic and religious organizations\, and community development across Southeast Michigan.\n\nChicana Fotos was made possible through the generous financial support of the University of Michigan’s Third Century Initiative and the Stamps School of Art & Design. Gallery talk sponsored by the Center for Latina/o and Latin American Studies\, Wayne State University\, and the University of Michigan’s Third Century Initiative.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Constructing Gender
DESCRIPTION:Ask U-M students\, alumni\, or fans what symbolizes the University of Michigan\, and you’ll likely hear the Big House\, the Diag\, along with the Michigan Union and the Michigan League. Since they officially opened in 1919 and 1929\, respectively\, the Union and League have been destinations for generations of Wolverines yet few know the rich history of the buildings’ origins or about the architects who brought them both to life: brothers and U-M alums Irving K. and Allen Pond.\n\nThe exhibition\, organized in celebration of the University of Michigan’s bicentennial in 2017\, illuminates the architecture and bustling student life of these iconic buildings using original drawings\, renderings\, photographs\, color studies\, and even dance cards from the Bentley Historical Library\, which serves as the University of Michigan archives. These fascinating documents reveal how the buildings were conceived\, constructed\, and first occupied by students and alumni. Guest curated by Nancy Bartlett of the Bentley Historical Library\, the exhibition reveals how the Ponds meticulously conceived and constructed the two clubs—one for men\, one for women—by weaving ideas about gender and society into the very fabric of the buildings themselves.\n\nLead support for this exhibition is provided by the Herbert W. and Susan L. Johe Endowment.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Ernestine Ruben at Willow Run
DESCRIPTION:In 2013\, artist Ernestine Ruben (BSDEs ’53) photographed the once-famed industrial complex Willow Run in Washtenaw County\, Michigan. Designed by her grandfather\, Detroit architect Albert Kahn\, for the Ford Motor Company\, Willow Run was an exemplar of American defense manufacturing because of its efficient mass-production of B-24 Liberators during World War II.\n\nFor this exhibition\, Ruben overlaid interior views of the now-dormant factory with imagined glimpses into her body’s interior landscape. The resulting compositions seem to breathe energy and light into the stagnant and cavernous spaces of Willow Run and suggest a longing for a productive existence undeterred by mortality for both Willow Run and the artist. Her grandfather’s role in the history of the site underscores Ruben’s personal connection.\n\nThe exhibition presents Ruben’s photographs of Willow Run in UMMA’s Photography Gallery and an original film—co-created by Ruben and video artist Seth Bernstein and featuring an original score by award-winning composer Stephen Hartke—in the Museum’s Forum.\n\nLead support for Ernestine Ruben at Willow Run: Mobilizing Memory is provided by the University of Michigan Office of the Provost and the Herbert W. and Susan L. Johe Endowment.\n\n\n\nLead support for Victors for the Arts: Michigan's Alumni Collectors is provided by the University of Michigan Office of the Provost\, the University of Michigan Health System\, the University of Michigan Office of the President\, the Michigan Council for Arts and Cultural Affairs and the National Endowment for the Arts\, and the University of Michigan Bicentennial Office.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:GOIN’ NORTH: BLACK DETROIT  AND THE  GREAT MIGRATION\,  1910-1930
DESCRIPTION:Summary: \nExhibit of photographs and documents produced by the Michigan Historical Collections in Commemoration of Martin Luther King\, Jr. Day at the University of Michigan\, published 1991.\nBLACK DETROIT AND THE GREAT MIGRATION\n\nSince Norf is up\,\nAn’ Souf is down\,\nAn’ Hebben is up\,\nI’m upward boun’.*\nThey came to Detroit by the thousands from Georgia\, Alabama\, Tennessee\, South Caroline and they stayed. They were part of what historians characterize as a watershed in African American History-the Great Migration. From 1910 to 1930\, hundreds of thousands of Blacks headed North\, leaving the South because of economic hardship\, poor educational opportunities\, and enticed by the lure of better jobs in northern industries and more freedom. Cites in the industrial Northeast and Midwest experienced astounding increases in their Black populations\, but few more so that Detroit\, its institutions and its cultures\, took shape and developed. The problems encountered by the migrants in the form of discrimination and racial animosity were problems with which the city would grapple throughout the decades to follow.\n\nThis exhibit focused on the two major concerns of the migrants\, housing and jobs\, and on the attempts made by various organizations in adjusting to life in Detroit. It is primarily compiled from the holding s of the University of Michigan’s Bentley Historical Library\, particularly the rich collection of the Detroit Urban League. It is also drawn from the Collections of the Detroit Public Library\, the Walter Reuther Collection of the Detroit Public Library\, the Walter Reuther Collection of Labor History and Urban Affairs (Wayne State University)\, the Collections of the Henry Ford Museum and Greenfield Village\, the Detroit News\, and tge Second Baptist Church of Detroit\, Michigan. The exhibit was prepared by Christine Weideman and Karen Jania\, staff members of the Bentley Historical Library.\n\n*From the poem\, “Northboun’” by Lucy Ariel Williams\, printed in Opportunity “: a Journal of Negro Life\, June 1926. The journal was a publication of the National Urban League.

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:Victors for Art: Michigan's Alumni Collectors–Part I: Figuration
DESCRIPTION:Commemorating the University of Michigan’s 2017 Bicentennial\, Victors for Art: Michigan’s Alumni Collectors celebrates the deep impact of Michigan alumni in the global art world. This two-part exhibition (Part I: Figuration followed by Part II: Abstraction on view July 1– October 29) presents works collected by a diverse group of alumni that represent the breadth of the University and over seventy years of graduating classes. The works themselves are equally diverse\, ranging from ancient sculptures to contemporary multimedia works. Part I: Figuration features works by Henri Matisse\, Elizabeth Louise Vigée Le Brun\, Mark Tansey\, and Mickalene Thomas\, among others\, and allows visitors to explore the variety of artistic responses and purposes encompassed by the term “figuration”. It also offers an unprecedented opportunity to view art that may have never been publicly displayed otherwise—and most certainly\, not all together. For visitors\, and especially for future Michigan alumni\, Victors for Art illuminates the shared passion for art fostered by the Michigan experience.\n\nThis exhibition was organized by Joseph Rosa\, Guest Curator\, in collaboration with Laura De Becker\, Helmut & Candis Stern Associate Curator of African Art\, Jennifer Friess\, Assistant Curator of Photography\, Lehti Mairike Keelman\, Assistant Curator of Western Art\, and Natsu Oyobe\, Curator of Asian Art.\n\nLead support for Victors for the Arts: Michigan's Alumni Collectors is provided by the University of Michigan Office of the Provost\, the University of Michigan Health System\, the University of Michigan Office of the President\, the Michigan Council for Arts and Cultural Affairs and the National Endowment for the Arts\, and the University of Michigan Bicentennial Office.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:HET Brown Bag Seminar | Bootstrapping Gross-Neveu Models
DESCRIPTION:We study the conformal bootstrap for 4-point functions of fermions in parity-preserving 3D CFTs\, where fermions transforms as a vector under an O(N) global symmetry. We compute bounds on scaling dimensions and central charges\, finding features in our bounds that appear to coincide with the O(N) symmetric Gross-Neveu-Yukawa fixed points. Our computations are in perfect agreement with the 1/N expansion at large N and allow us to make nontrivial predictions at small N.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Medieval Lunch. Scribal Protagonism in the Codex Albeldensis (975-976 CE)
DESCRIPTION:The illuminated manuscripts of 10th-century Christian Iberia are remarkable not only for their beauty\, but also for the insistence with which the people who made them draw our attention to their activity through explicit visual and linguistic representation. My book-in-progress\, Remember the Hand\, argues that\, while of course serving the authoritative text that they copy and illuminate\, these makers pursue a parallel agenda that gives protagonism not only to the authoritative text that the codex contains\, but also to the codex itself as material object and the book worker responsible for its existence. \n\nThis talk will explore how this protagonism of codex and maker works in the great illuminated law compendium that is the Codex Albeldensis\, completed by Vigila\, his associate Sarracinus\, and his student Garcia in 977 CE.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:Spectacular\, Spectacular: Large-Scale Performance in Contemporary China
DESCRIPTION:From massive song-and-dance epics celebrating national holidays to the Opening Ceremony of the Beijing Olympics in 2008\, contemporary Chinese culture has become known for large-scale performances and their spectacular displays of high-tech special effects. For the Opening Ceremony\, for instance\, dazzling graphics flashed across an enormous LED scroll and aerospace control systems were employed to monitor thousands upon thousands of performers. Likewise\, numerous site-specific “real-scenery performances” (shijing yanchu 實景演出) at tourist destinations like West Lake in Hangzhou and Wutai Mountain in Shanxi project swirling patterns and candy-colored lights onto the environments in which they are situated. These theatrical productions become performances of technology\, setting digital effects and computerized equipment on par with human actors and complicating concepts of live performance\, natural landscape\, and national culture.\n\nThe role of mechanical and digital technologies in live theater has been extensively discussed and theorized in relation to Euro-American theater. Yet\, few scholars to date have considered the unique politics\, economics\, and aesthetics of parallel trends in East Asia. Tracing the rise to prominence of such phenomena in the PRC\, this presentation will demonstrate that showcasing Chinese innovation has become a central concern of state-sponsored and commercial theatrical productions over the last fifteen years. In successfully doing so\, large-scale performance has also established an aesthetic of technological excess as one of the key artistic modes of contemporary Chinese theater—one that dominates China’s main stages and incites critical responses from more avant-garde corners of the performing arts world.\n\nTarryn Li-Min Chun is currently a postdoctoral fellow at the Lieberthal-Rogel Center for Chinese Studies at the University of Michigan. She received her Ph.D. in East Asian Languages and Civilizations from Harvard University in 2016. She also holds an M.A. in Regional Studies-East Asia from Harvard and an B.A. in East Asian Studies from Princeton University. Her research focuses on theater and performance in 20th-21st century China and Taiwan\, and he current book project\, “Staging Revolution and Resistance: Theater\, Technology\, and Media in Modern China\,” explores the relationship between technological modernization and artistic innovation in Chinese theater and performance from the 1930s to the present.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Financial/Actuarial Mathematics
DESCRIPTION:We solve the martingale optimal transport problem for cost functionals represented by optimal stopping problems. The measure-valued martingale approach developed in ArXiv: 1507.02651 allows us to obtain an equivalent infinite-dimensional controller-stopper problem. We use the stochastic Perron's method and characterize the finite dimensional approximation as a viscosity solution to the corresponding HJB equation. It turns out that this solution is the concave envelope of the cost function with respect to the atoms of the terminal law. We demonstrate the results by finding explicit solutions for a class of cost functions.\n\nJoint work with Erhan Bayraktar (UM) and Alex Cox (Bath). Speaker(s): Yavor Stoev (UM)

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:The Rape of Nicole and the Murder of Jennifer: Gender\, Sovereignty and the U.S. Military in Subic Bay\, Philippines
DESCRIPTION:In this presentation\, Professor Reyes will analyze two legal cases: the rape of Filipina Nicole by Lance Corporal Daniel Smith\, a U.S. Marine\, and the murder of transgender Filipina Jennifer by Lance Corporal Joseph Pemberton\, also a U.S. Marine.\n\nShe will demonstrate how U.S. and Philippine government officials\, lawyers\, judges\, and activists engaged in jurisdictional boundary-making regarding who has which rights to try\, convict\, and punish U.S. service members who commit crimes against locals. These claims revolved around particular understandings of class\, nationalism\, and gender-based discrimination. The sovereignty and abilities of the nation to assert jurisdictional rights over the accused are directly linked to bodies and the extent to which Philippine officials are able to protect Filipinas from violence caused by citizens of their former colonial overlord and their ability to punish the men who violated these daughters of the nation. The ability to punish violators include not only whether they are tried in Philippine courts\, but also whether the Philippines is able to maintain custody during trial and after subsequent guilty verdicts as well as dictate where and how they would be detained.

SUMMARY:Other:Characterizing Protein Glutathionylation in Response to Mitochondrial ROS
DESCRIPTION:Mitochondria are the central organelle for cellular metabolism while being an important source of ROS production.1 Importantly\, mitochondrial ROS (mROS) are emerging as key pathophysiological molecules in cardiac cells as well as a broad cardiovascular system. The complex role of mROS is largely mediated by protein oxidative modifications\, including glutathionylation that is a disulfide bond formation of protein cysteine residue with intracellular glutathione. Although several biochemical methods for identifying glutathionylation are available\, individual approach has its own limitations. In order to identify and characterize protein glutathionylation\, we recently developed a novel chemical method\, namely clickable glutathione\, that selectively detects glutathionylation in response to ROS. The central idea was to tag a ‘clickable’ functionality to glutathione by engineering glutathione synthetase (GS)\, a non-rate limiting enzyme in glutathione (γGlu-Cys-Gly) biosynthesis. With this approach\, we analyzed glutathionylation of global and individual proteins in response to metabolic alteration that increases mROS production. Proteomic and biochemical analysis with our clickable glutathione approach led to identifying multiple target proteins of glutathionylation\, including SMYD2 implicated in cardiac and skeletal muscle. In this talk\, I will present our clickable glutathione approach\, characterization of glutathionylation in metabolic alteration\, and functional significance of SMYD2 glutathionylation in muscle.\nYoung-Hoon Ahn (Wayne State University)

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Department Colloquium | Building with Crystals of Light and Quantum Matter: From Clocks to Computers
DESCRIPTION:Understanding the behavior of interacting electrons in solids or liquids is at the heart of modern quantum science and necessary for technological advances. However\, the complexity of their interactions generally prevents us from coming up with an exact mathematical description of their behavior. Precisely engineered ultracold gases are emerging as a powerful tool for unraveling these challenging physical problems. In this talk\, I will present recent developments at JILA on using alkaline-earth atoms (AEAs) --currently the basis of the most precise atomic clock in the world-- for the investigation of complex many-body phenomena and magnetism. I will discuss ideas to use AEAs to engineer synthetic materials with no yet known counterpart in nature. I will also discuss how to use laser fields to make neutral AEAs behave as charged electrons in ultra-strong magnetic fields.

DESCRIPTION:In practice\, stochastic decision problems are often based on statistical estimates of probabilities. We all know that statistical error may be significant\, but it is often not so clear how to incorporate it into our decision making. In this talk\, we will look at one approach to this problem\, based on the theory of nonlinear expectations. We will consider the large-sample theory of these estimators\, and also connections to `robust statistics' in the sense of Huber.\n Speaker(s): Sam Cohen (Oxford)

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:The DAAS Diasporic Dialogues Workshop in conjunction with PCWID
DESCRIPTION:Immigration\, as crisis and in times of crisis\, routinely cycles through as a news topic of the day. This talk will explore the story of immigration and citizenship\, and the ways that race\, gender\, and class shape national belonging and identity. Using Haiti\, Cuba\, and the United States as primary triangulated sites of examination\, I will argue that citizenship in all of its forms is often rhetorically\, representationally\, and legally negated by race\, particularly blackness. Further\, I will explore the ways that media representations of blackness impact one’s ability to travel across national and social borders and become a citizen. \n Manoucheka Celeste is an Assistant Professor at the University of Florida with a joint appointment at the Center for Gender\, Sexualities\, and Women’s Studies Research and the African American Studies Program. Her research centers on representational constructions of race\, gender\, class\, and nation\, and processes of identity formation\, with a specific emphasis on citizenship narratives surrounding immigration\, tourism\, immigrants\, and black women. Her regional focus is the Caribbean\, particularly Haiti. Her most recent publications include her first book Race\, Gender\, and Citizenship in the African Diaspora: Travelling Blackness (Routledge 2017) and the article “Entertaining mobility: the racialized and gendered nation in House Hunters International” in Feminist Media Studies (2016).  She holds a Ph.D. in Communication and Graduate Certificate in Feminist Studies from the University of Washington.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Algebraic Geometry
DESCRIPTION: Given a projective manifold\, one can measure the positive directions in its tangent bundle by evaluating the slopes of its sub-sheaves with respect to movable classes. We show that the holomorphic foliations with positive slope and stable with respect to a movable class are algebraic. As a consequence\, we infer that any quotient of an arbitrary tensor power of the cotangent bundle of the manifold has a pseudo-effective determinant\, provided that the canonical class of the manifold is pseudo-effective. This represents a generalization of the celebrated generic semi-positivity theorem by Y. Miyaoka. A few other applications will be discussed. These results are part of a joint work with F. Campana.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:Hajja Razia Sharif Sheikh Lecture in Islamic Studies
DESCRIPTION:Patriarchs and prophets are mentioned in the Qur’an and appear in all Islamic literary genres and literature from early Islam to contemporary Muslim societies. Continuity and change\, exegetical concerns and narratives stances appear throughout the ages in relation to this literature on the prophets\, reflecting the changing concerns of Muslim societies and cultures. At the beginning the Qur’anic lives and stories from Adam to Jesus are given as an example for Muhammad and the believers and constitute the main reference to the past history of humankind. In Medieval ages further stories and narratives were produced. These stories were collected in a specific literary genre (Qisas al-anbiya’) and spread in the Muslim world through elaborations and versions in Persian\, Turkish and all the other languages. Following a continuous activity of transmission\, collection and innovation\, the traditions and stories about the prophets of Islam crossed late Medieval and modern times and came to contemporary literary re-workings. But new theological approaches and a substantial rejection of some of the Medieval traditions labeled as isra’iliyyat mark this new literature on the prophets.   \n\n\nRoberto Tottoli (PhD 1996 Naples - Orientale) is Professor of Islamic studies at the University of Naples L'Orientale and during the year Member of the Institute for Advanced Study\, Princeton. He has published studies on the Biblical tradition in the Qur’an and Islam (Biblical prophets in the Qur’an and Muslim literature\, Richmond\, 2002\; The stories of the prophets of Ibn  Mutarrif al-Tarafi\, Berlin\, 2003) and the medieval Islamic literature. His most recent publications include Ludovico Marracci at work: The Evolution of his Latin translation of the Qur’ān in the light of his newly discovered manuscripts (co-authored with Reinhold F. Glei)\, Wiesbaden\, Harrassowitz\, 2016\; and Books and Written Culture of Islamic World. Studies Presented to Claude Gilliot on the Occasion of His 75th Birthday (edited with Andrew Rippin)\, Leiden – Boston\, 2015.\n\nThe Hajja Razia Sharif Sheikh Lecure in Islamic Studies is made possible by the Hajja Razia Sharif Sheikh endowment.

SUMMARY:Performance:Fred Eaglesmith
DESCRIPTION:Fred Eaglesmith is Ontario's roots-country original! There are other songwriters who populate their creations with small-time crooks\, small-town loners\, and working-class heroes. But Fred Eaglesmith's songs stand out for their edge of desperation and their raucous yet bemused humor—and for the incredible energy and on-the-edge quality of his live shows. Circulating on tour from his Ontario farm\, Fred harks back to an earlier era of roots music with his raw\, driving country soul. Fred's 20th album\, \"Tambourine\,\" draws on the spirit of pure 1960s rock and roll.
