SUMMARY:Exhibition:Window Installation | Cosmogonic Tattoos
DESCRIPTION:In celebration of the University’s Bicentennial in 2017\, artist and professor Jim Cogswell has been invited by the Kelsey Museum of Archaeology and the University of Michigan Museum of Art to create a set of public window installations in response to the objects in their collections. Titled \"Cosmogonic Tattoos\,\" his project uses adhesive vinyl images applied in saturated colors to windows in the two buildings\, highlighting the role of these museums in the life of our campus community. Through close examination of objects separated from us by deep chronological and cultural divides\, imaginatively transformed within our campus context\, this project celebrates the power of architecture\, ornament\, and material objects to shape knowledge\, historical memory\, and cultural identity.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Statistics Department Seminar Series: Phyllis Wan\, Department of Statistics\, Columbia University
DESCRIPTION:Preferential attachment is an appealing mechanism for modeling power-law behavior of degree distributions in social networks.  In this talk\, we consider fitting a directed linear preferential attachment model to network data under three data scenarios: 1) When the full history of the network growth is given\, MLE of the parameter vector and its asymptotic properties are derived.  2) When only a single-time snapshot of the network is available\, an estimation method combining method of moments with an approximation to the likelihood is proposed.  3) When the data are believed to have come from a misspecified model or have been corrupted\, a semi-parametric approach to model heavy-tailed features of the degree distributions is presented\, using ideas from extreme value theory.  We illustrate these estimation procedures and explore the usage of this model through simulated and real data examples.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Gifts of Art presents Ink Portraits
DESCRIPTION:Based out of Chelsea\, Michigan\, John Pappas believes that if you can imagine a fun idea making sense\, you should make it. He applies this to both his graphic design and fine art. With so much to see and ruminate on in life\, Pappas keeps his hands busy by putting pen to paper. This body of work consists of portraits drawn with ink on a variety of surfaces including paper\, basswood and aspen panels in an offbeat pen and ink style that leans heavily on pointillism and crosshatching. The subjects range from athletes to musicians to personal friends.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Gifts of Art presents My Playground: Assemblage Sculpture
DESCRIPTION:Starting with watercolor\, Joan Painter-Jones’ work kept building out farther and farther until it became sculpture. Brought up in a household where money was tight\, she doesn’t like to waste anything and is captivated by old scraps of things with peeling paint and rusty metal – especially broken things that have a story to tell. She usually starts out with an interesting piece of wood and builds on it\, often painting on it and adding collage\, all while developing an emotional connection to it. Working in her quiet Milan\, Michigan backyard art loft “playground\,” she has no message to preach with her work\, just her own personal wish for peace and justice.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Gifts of Art presents Prairie Mantras: Paint & Vinyl on Aluminum
DESCRIPTION:Desiree Warren’s current body of work is a journey using one shape (the orzo) to create a multitude of layers that evoke landscapes and organic assimilations. Growing up in the country in Kansas\, she had wide open spaces to explore\, as well as many of her family’s dilapidated farm buildings and overgrown pasture lands. At the University of Kansas\, she began working with street sign material and has continued to incorporate aluminum and vinyl in her work. Part of this series is included in the 2017 Women to Watch: Metals exhibition at the Kemper Museum of Contemporary Art in Kansas City\, Missouri\, where she lives and works.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Gifts of Art presents The Desert Southwest: Photography
DESCRIPTION:Born and raised in Flint\, Michigan\, Daniel Sidoli has always had the creative itch. It led him to the University of Nevada\, Las Vegas and a BA degree in Fine Arts. With this body of work\, his intent is to capture images that illustrate the unique landscape that erosion sculpts over time. His goal with photography is to be artistic yet convey truth. He wants the subject to inspire the audience and leave a lasting impression: to elicit an emotional response. Each image represents moments in time and of journeys traveled\, both figuratively and literally\, since he is involved in every step of the process as he sees each piece to completion.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:of 72
DESCRIPTION:Note: Ebony Patterson Stamps lecture takes place Feb 1\, 5pm\, at the Michigan Theater\, immediately followed at 6pm by artist reception at the Institute for the Humanities.\n\n“What happens when seventy-two men and one woman die and no one knows who they are?” Jamaican artist Ebony Patterson’s of 72—a mixed media work on fabric with digital imagery\, embroidery\, rhinestones\, trimmings\, bandanas\, and floral appliques—considers the 2010 “Tivoli Incursion”  in Kingston\, Jamaica. This armed conflict between the Shower Posse drug cartel and Jamaica's military and police took place when security forces began searching for drug lord Christopher \"Dudus\" Coke\, after the United States requested his extradition. The violence killed at least 73 civilians.\n\n\"Of 72\" will be in conversation with Patterson's more recent work \"...And Babies...\" created at the Tyler School of Art\, Temple University. The lush tapestry-like floor piece continues where \"Of 72\" leaves us and serves to honor both the spirit and the loss of so many black bodies...women\, little boys\, little girls\, even babies\, subjected to acts of violence and abuse.  \n\nEbony G. Patterson is a Jamaican artist born in Kingston\, Jamaica. She studied at Edna Manley College of Visual and Performing Arts and the Sam Fox School of Design & Visual Arts at Washington University in St. Louis. An assistant professor in painting at the University of Kentucky\, she has shown her artwork in numerous solo and private exhibitions and is represented by Monique Meloche Gallery.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Pre-Fab/Post-Fab: Art in a Readymade Era
DESCRIPTION:Pre-Fab/Post-Fab: Art in a Readymade Era showcases the works of Heidi Barlow\, Shaina Kasztelan\, and Bailey Scieszka\, three young women artists based in Detroit\, MI. Their work\, although varying in style and form\, speaks to a generation growing up with the influence of mass consumption\, internet shopping\, the glut of plastic toys\, fake jewels\, and tchotchkes. Whereas artists of the ‘60s and ‘70s reached first for paint tubes and canvas\, these artists use inexpensive and lowbrow materials to twist the signifiers of pop culture\, as they relate to gender politics and American ideals. It’s a balancing act between the icing and the cake\, surface and substance. \n\nBarlow’s confection-like constructs are unsettling\, much like an empty float or matted-hair Barbie in a backyard pool. Although enticing\, they allude to something lost in the translation\, some sweetness\, or idealism gone missing\, along with what once mattered. Yet\, the work isn’t cynical\, but embraces transition instead. We’ve hardened a little in the process\, much like the stiff and sugary piping Barlow often incorporates in her works. And maybe that’s a good thing. \n\nIf Barlow’s aesthetic leans towards Stepford Wives gone awry  and the guilty pleasure of eBay\, Shaina Kasztelan offers us psychedelic Middle America. Her assemblages are disorienting\, vertigo-inducing. Technicolor sculptures conjure up hallucinations of the mall\, or spinning carnival rides that last too long. Kasztelan’s work is sinister\, even a little menacing. As viewers we are leery.\n\nFinally\, Bailey Scieszka takes this subversive garish ethos full tilt and invents her own world\, literally morphing into her own creation. Scieszka’s alter-ego Old Put\, a demonic shape-shifting clown\, becomes the artist/protagonist and creates work in performance\, video and drawing. Old Put collects pop culture references like artifacts of a lost civilization\, and seems as likely to commit a murder as bake a cake. \n\nFor Barlow\, Kasztelan and Scieszka\, outdated paradigms about class\, good taste\, and femininity are just temporal flashes in the pan. And it’s their party.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Matisse Drawings: Curated by Ellsworth Kelly from The Pierre and Tana Matisse Foundation Collection
DESCRIPTION:\"Matisse Drawings: Curated by Ellsworth Kelly from The Pierre and Tana Matisse Foundation Collection\" showcases the master draftsmanship of two of the most significant artists of the twentieth century: Henri Matisse (1869–1954) and Ellsworth Kelly (1923–2015). Curated by Kelly in 2014\, the exhibition speaks to his admiration for Matisse\, as well as to the centrality of drawing in both artists’ practices. To accompany the forty-five rarely exhibited works by Matisse made in the first half of the 20th century\, which reveal his process and range of creativity as a draftsman\, Kelly selected nine of his own lithographic drawings that derive from his time in France during the 1960s\, when the American artist studied Matisse’s sketches and studies of nature and human figures. Together\, the works by Matisse and Kelly form a thought-provoking\, visually striking artistic dialogue\, allowing viewers to experience one artist through the eyes of another and to immerse themselves in the pleasures of close looking.\n                                                                                                                                                                        \n\"Matisse Drawings: Curated by Ellsworth Kelly from The Pierre and Tana Matisse Foundation Collection\" is organized by the American Federation of Arts and the Mount Holyoke College Art Museum in collaboration with The Pierre and Tana Matisse Foundation.\n\nThis exhibition was made possible by the generous support of the Eugene V. and Clare E. Thaw Charitable Trust and The Pierre and Tana Matisse Foundation. Additional support provided by the JFM Foundation and Mrs. Donald M. Cox.\n\nLead support for the local presentation of this exhibition is provided by the University of Michigan Office of the Provost\, Michigan Medicine\, the Michigan Council for Arts and Cultural Affairs\, the Richard and Rosann Noel Endowment Fund\, and the University of Michigan Ross School of Business and the Department of the History of Art.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:New at UMMA: Paul Rand
DESCRIPTION:Throughout the second half of the twentieth century\, pioneering art director and graphic designer Paul Rand (1914–1996) was celebrated for crafting the brand identities of such American corporate icons as ABC\, IBM\, UPS\, and Westinghouse. Rand considered the designer’s task to be the symbolic communication of a company’s character. This recent acquisition presentation features the poster Rand created as part of IBM’s THINK promotional campaign. The design is a rebus\, or visual puzzle\, wherein Rand cleverly transforms the letters of IBM’s logo into pictures. The whimsical use of symbols encourages viewers to interpret—or think—in order to comprehend the company’s intended message that it values “insight\,” “industriousness\,” and “motivation.” The poster is part of a larger recent gift of archival Paul Rand objects donated to UMMA by Franc Nunoo-Quarcoo—professor in the U-M Stamps School of Art and Design and published scholar on Paul Rand—and Maria Phillips.\n\nThis work was recently gifted to UMMA by Maria Phillips and Franc Nunoo-Quarcoo.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Patricia Piccinini: The Comforter
DESCRIPTION:Australian artist Patricia Piccinini’s strange\, hyperreal yet sentimental sculptures are often rooted in her speculative visualizations of future species—beings transformed by\, or even created by\, developments in genetic engineering and technology.  On view at UMMA\, \"The Comforter\" presents the likeness of a young girl whose appearance suggests a rare genetic condition causing excessive hair across her face and body. In her lap she tenderly cradles an udder-shaped\, eyeless creature—a possible reference to current experiments in genetically altered milk-producing animals. The encounter staged by the sculpture\, though curious and unexplained\, appears to be one of innocence and intimacy\, and suggests the potential for emotional connection between a diversity of beings. This theme is a common one for Piccinini\, whose work incorporates (often obliquely) ideas and questions about the ethical implications of scientific progress and the conflicts in our culture between the natural and the man-made.\n\nLead support for \"Patricia Piccinini: The Comforter\" is provided by the University of Michigan Office of the Provost\, the Herbert W. and Susan L. Johe Endowment\, and the University of Michigan Institute for the Humanities and the Institute for Research on Women and Gender.

DESCRIPTION:Suzy Lake was born and raised in Detroit. Following the social and political unrest of the 1960’s Lake emigrated to Montreal in 1968\, where she was among the first female artists in the nation to adopt performance\, video\, and photography to explore the politics of gender\, the body\, and identity. In this exhibition\, Lake returns to her childhood neighborhood and various locations central to her family history to explore the cycles of urban development and decay in working class Detroit\, as well as her experience with ageism.\n\nExhibition Dates: January 19 - February 25\nHours: Open during exhibitions Tuesday through Sunday\, 11:00 am - 5:00 pm\; Thursday and Friday\, 11:00 am - 7:00 pm.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Tim Noble and Sue Webster: The Masterpiece
DESCRIPTION:Since the 1980s\, British artists Tim Noble and Sue Webster have been known for their shadow sculptures built from materials as diverse as scrap metal\, garbage\, taxidermy\, and sex toys. When light is directed at these assemblages\, they project shadows that are exceptionally accurate and intricate representations of other things entirely.\n\n\"The Masterpiece\" (2014) is a shadow self-portrait of the artists created from metal casts of dead vermin they collected and welded together into a ball. From afar the casts appear to be a stunning abstract silver sculpture\; on closer inspection the disturbing menagerie of creatures emerges\, only to change form again—as a shadow on the wall—into a precise and elegant image that is astonishingly different from the objects that create it.\n\nLead support for \"Tim Noble and Sue Webster: The Masterpiece\" is provided by the Herbert W. and Susan L. Johe Endowment\, the Susan and Richard Gutow Fund\, and the University of Michigan Institute for the Humanities. Additional generous support is provided by the Richard and Janet Miller Fund.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:ChE Seminar Series: K. Dane Wittrup
DESCRIPTION:C.P. Dubbs Professor of Chemical Engineering and Biological Engineering\nAssociate Director\, Koch Institute for Integrative Cancer Research\nMassachusetts Institute of Technology\n\n\n“Bioengineering of synergistic innate and adaptive immunotherapy of cancer”\n\nHarnessing the immune system to attack cancer has started a revolution in oncology.  The ability of the adaptive immune system to track such evolving pathologies has provided robust responses and cures in 10-25% of previously intractable cancers such as metastatic melanoma.  The next frontier is to “raise the tail” of the survival curve in such cancers by finding synergistic combination therapies.  Chemical and biological engineers have pioneered approaches that are well suited to such investigations\, bringing quantitative problem-solving synthetic and analytical toolkits to bear.  I’ll provide examples from my lab where cocktails of anti-tumor antibodies and cytokines have accomplished highly safe and efficacious therapies as tested in mouse models of cancer.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:LRCCS Tuesday Lecture Series | “Treating One’s Neighbor Like a Gully” 以鄰為壑: Yellow River Management and the Environmental Ethics of the Chinese State
DESCRIPTION:The ancient philosopher Mencius criticized the hydraulic specialist Bai Gui: “When dealing with floods . . . you\, my sir\, treat the neighboring state like a gully [by discharging water into it].” In this talk\, Professor Zhang argues that the ethical choice Mencius disdained as something “detested by benevolent men” has dominated environmental management – especially management of the Yellow River – by Chinese Confucian states during the past two millennia.\n\nLing Zhang is Associate Professor in the History Department at Boston College. Professor Zhang received a BA in Humanities and History from Peking University and an MPhil and a PhD in Chinese Studies from the University of Cambridge. She was a Ziff Environmental Fellow at Harvard University Center for the Environment and a Postdoctoral Fellow in the Agrarian Studies Program at Yale University. Her first book\, The River\, The Plain\, and The State: An Environmental Drama in Northern Song China\, 1048-1128 (Cambridge University Press\, 2016)\, received the 2017 George Perkins Marsh Prize for the Best Book in Environmental History from the American Society for Environmental History. She is currently working on two book projects about political economy in middle-period China and political ecology of the Yellow River valley.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Null models for cultural and social evolution
DESCRIPTION:Analogies between biological and cultural evolution date back to Darwin\, yet the analogies have remained loose. Neutral evolution\, known to be important in biology\, has been proposed as a null model for cultural change\, but has not been developed into tests for selection on cultural features. Using inference in time series of alternative word forms and grammatical constructions\, I demonstrate a cultural analog of natural selection on a background of neutral evolution.  Social evolution\, on the other hand\, implies selection in a social environment and therefore cannot be described with a neutral model.  I propose a model of pure frequency-dependent selection as a generic null model for social evolution\, and use inference under the model to illustrate diverse effects of social selection.  I show complex forms of frequency dependent selection---including positive and negative frequency-dependent selection at different frequencies---in the copying of baby names\, the fashions of dog breeds\, and the use of rare languages.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Between Past and Future: Wang Qingsong 1999-2006
DESCRIPTION:Curated by ZHANG Fang\, this art exhibition will include six of WANG Qingsong’s representative photo works that depict the traumatic transformations that have taken place inside China. These photographs are inspired by China’s drive for globalization over the last few decades.  \n\nPlease join us for the reception and Meet the Artist at 4 pm\, January 24 at the Willis Ward Art Lounge.  \n\nAbout WANG Qingsong\n\nAn artist\, educator\,  and curator\, WANG Qingsong represents a generation of Chinese cultural producers and creative intellectuals who have exerted a profound influence on contemporary Chinese art practices. Wang’s large format photographic film works have been exhibited around the world at major museums\, art centers\, and galleries\, playing a  pivotal role in expanding the international art market for Chinese visual arts.\n\nFormally trained as a painter\, WANG Qingsong now works more like a film director who gathers dozens – sometimes even hundreds – of participants to produce improvisatory works that comment on consumerism\, urbanization and social change. In 2014\, Wang worked with University of Michigan faculty and students to create a large scale installation-photography work\, one that has students perched along a thin stairway spanning the diagonal of a massive chalkboard\, on which names of the top 500 institutions of higher education were written.\n\nIn winter 2018\, Wang Qingsong will stage a new work that would stimulate comparative study of urban renewal efforts in China and the U.S. The work will feature photographic/film images of Detroit’s historical Chinatown and industrial-warehouses areas which have undergone urban renewal since the 1960s.\n\n*Image: The Glory of Hope\, 240x180cm\, 2007\, courtesy of the artist Wang Qingsong

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:CM-AMO Seminar | Mesoscale Theory and Modeling of Polymer-Based Nanocomposites
DESCRIPTION:Polymer-inorganic nanocomposites – materials in which inorganic nanoscale inclusions (“fillers”) are added to a polymer host (“matrix”) – are of great interest for many industrial applications. The physical and mechanical properties of nanocomposites depend crucially on our ability to design and control their morphology\, i.e.\, the arrangement of the particles in the matrix. The nanocomposite morphologies depend on a number of factors\, such as the size and shape of the fillers\, the molecular weight and composition of the matrix polymer\, and the interactions between the filler and the matrix. In most cases\, the interaction between the matrix and the filler is very unfavorable\, leading to aggregation of the filler particles and poor mechanical or physical properties. To counter this effect\, in recent years\, filler particles are being functionalized by oligomeric ligands covalently bonded to particle surfaces. These “hairy” nanoparticles can organize into complex soft-crystalline 3d\, 2d\, or 1d structures. We develop a mesoscale field theory (combination of Self-Consistent Field Theory for polymers and Density Functional Theory for particles) to describe the nanocomposite morphologies. Two specific examples are considered. In the first case\, we investigate the arrangements of organically modified (“hairy”) spherical nanoparticles dispersed in a polymer matrix. Depending on the particle volume fraction\, ligand grafting density\, and ligand/matrix polymer molecular weight ratio\, we find structures such as 3d-aggregates\, 2d-sheets\, and 1d-strings. Those results are in a good qualitative agreement with earlier experiments (P. Akcora et al.\, Nature Materials 2009) and simulations. The second example is the case of single-component nanocomposites (“hairy” nanoparticles with no matrix). Here\, again\, we find various structures\, from 3d FCC crystals to 2d sheets to 1d lamellae. These predictions are also in good qualitative agreement with experimental results and particle-based simulations of Glotzer and co-workers (R. Marson et al.\, MRS Communications 2015). These findings demonstrate that field-based mesoscale simulations are going to play important role in designing new polymeric and polymer-based nanocomposite materials.\n\nI received my B.S. (Physics) and Ph. D. (Polymer Physics) from Moscow Institute of Physics and Technology (“FizTech”)\, Moscow\, Russia\, with Ph.D. thesis on “Modeling the Dynamics and Thermodynamics of Melting Polyethylene Crystals” (advisor Prof. Leonid I. Manevitch). After moving to the US in 1992\, I worked as a postdoctoral researcher at the University of Colorado (1993-97\, advisor Prof. Noel A. Clark) and the University of Pittsburgh (1998-2000\, advisor Prof. Anna C. Balazs). In early 2001\, I joined Corporate R&D of The Dow Chemical Company in Midland\, Michigan\, where I am currently a Senior Research Scientist. My research interests are in applied theoretical and computational polymer science\, with specific emphasis on polymer-inorganic nanocomposites\, polyurethane foams and elastomers\, directed self-assembly of block copolymers\, and other applications of polymer theory to predict structure-property relationships in industrially relevant systems. I am a Fellow of American Physical Society (2014)\, and recipient of Dow internal award for Excellence in Science (2015). \n

SUMMARY:Conference / Symposium:Wieseneck Symposium: US-Israel Relations in the Age of Trump
DESCRIPTION:Warren Bass\, Penguin Press\nMira Sucharov\, Carleton University\nMark Tessler\, University of Michigan\n\nFew foreign leaders have expressed as much admiration for President Trump as Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu: “I have never heard a bolder or more courageous speech\,” Netanyahu gushed after President Trump addressed the United Nations General Assembly. The U.S. President\, for his part\, has aligned U.S. foreign policy with Netanyahu’s wish list\, including opposition to the Iran deal and support for moving the American embassy to Jerusalem. This symposium brings three prominent scholars and commentators into discussion about how U.S.-Israel relations have changed since the inauguration of Donald Trump\, what the future of these relations may be\, and how different groups may be impacted.\n\n\nIf you have a disability that requires a reasonable accommodation\, contact the Judaic Studies office at 734-763-9047 at least two weeks prior to the event.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:ELI Winter Workshop Series: \"Speed Reading\" -- Handling a Heavy Reading Load
DESCRIPTION:Are you a graduate student with a virtually impossible reading load? You are not alone. While it is possible to read and understand text more quickly\, real reading efficiency comes from reading text more strategically. In this workshop\, we will learn about  strategies for prioritizing attention\, understanding and remembering what we read\, and aligning reading strategy with our purpose for reading (e.g. preparing for seminar discussion\, developing a literature review\, refining our research methods\, or writing a response paper). Bring a paper or electronic copy example of the kind of text you’re trying to read more efficiently.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:CWPS Faculty Lecture Series
DESCRIPTION:Professor Partridge’s Filming Future Cities project uses film as a critical means to investigate urban futures and engage a broader public\, building on his ongoing collaborative film projects in Detroit and Berlin: “Filming the Future of Detroit\,’’ and “Filming the Future from Berlin: Noncitizen Perspectives\,’’ begun in 2014 (see filmingfuturecities.org). The point of the project is not only to teach refugees\, migrants\, youth\, and noncitizens the skills required for filmmaking\, ethnography\, and critical analysis of urban landscapes\, but also to teach them how to distribute their work to a broader audience and to participate in the planning for and imagination of their city’s future.  Using the project’s films as examples\, this talk will think through the efficacy of using film as a technique for shaping the future.\n\nThe Center for World Performance Studies Faculty Lecture Series features our Faculty Fellows and visiting scholars and practitioners in the fields of ethnography and performance. Designed to create an informal and intimate setting for intellectual exchange among students\, scholars\, and the community\, faculty are invited to present their work in an interactive and performative fashion.\n\n\nIf you are a person with a disability who requires an accommodation to participate in this event\, please contact Center for World Performance Studies\, at 734-936-2777\, at least one week in advance of this event. Please be aware that advance notice is necessary as some accommodations may require more time for the University to arrange.

SUMMARY:Performance:Ruth B.
DESCRIPTION:Canadian newcomer Ruth B. (Ruth Berhe) established herself as an authentic singer/songwriter of considerable promise and purpose in 2016\, and the music world responded with open arms. Most recently\, she received a coveted JUNO award in Canada for Breakthrough Artist of the Year and a BMI Pop Award for her viral hit “Lost Boy\,” which started it all. Her 12-song debut album\, \"Safe Haven\,\" has far surpassed first-album expectations\, with Rolling Stone declaring Ruth B. “one to watch.” Composing all of the album’s songs herself\, Ruth blazes with the same surefooted intensity as she did on “Lost Boy\,” but all the while transforming and growing right before our eyes.
