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: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.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Suzy Lake
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:Workshop / Seminar:Deformed exponential families  in Statistical Physics and beyond
DESCRIPTION:Two recent developments are discussed from the point of view\, expressed by Jaynes in 1957\, that Statistical Physics is statistics applied to physics. 1. Information geometry aims to replace the maximum likelihood method of statistics by a geometric approach. Many of the techniques involved sound familiar to physicists because they are used in classical mechanics\, relativity\, or thermodynamics. 2. The study of deformed exponential families started with the non-extensive statistical physics of Tsallis. New classes of statistical models will hopefully find application in many areas of research. A short presentation is given of the formalism of phi-deformed exponential families and their dual rho-tau geometries.

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:Lecture / Discussion:“The Crisis of Multiculturalism in Europe: A History” by Rita Chin
DESCRIPTION:Discussants: \n- Rita Chin\, Professor of History\n- Kristin Dickinson\, Assistant Professor of Germanic Languages and Literatures\n- Damani Partridge\, Associate Professor of Anthropology and Afroamerican and African Studies\n\nIn 2010\, the leaders of Germany\, Britain\, and France each declared that multiculturalism had failed in their countries. Over the past decade\, a growing consensus in Europe has voiced similar decrees. But what do these ominous proclamations\, from across the political spectrum\, mean? From the influx of immigrants in the 1950s to contemporary worries about refugees and terrorism\, \"The Crisis of Multiculturalism in Europe\" examines the historical development of multiculturalism on the Continent. Rita Chin argues that there were few efforts to institute state-sponsored policies of multiculturalism\, and those that emerged were pronounced failures virtually from their inception. She shows that today's crisis of support for cultural pluralism isn't new but actually has its roots in the 1980s.\n\nChin looks at the touchstones of European multiculturalism\, from the urgent need for laborers after World War II to the public furor over the publication of \"The Satanic Verses\" and the question of French girls wearing headscarves to school. While many Muslim immigrants had lived in Europe for decades\, in the 1980s they came to be defined by their religion and the public's preoccupation with gender relations. Acceptance of sexual equality became the critical gauge of Muslims' compatibility with Western values. The convergence of left and right around the defense of such personal freedoms against a putatively illiberal Islam has threatened to undermine commitment to pluralism as a core ideal. Chin contends that renouncing the principles of diversity brings social costs\, particularly for the left\, and she considers how Europe might construct an effective political engagement with its varied population.\n\nChallenging the mounting opposition to a diverse society\, \"The Crisis of Multiculturalism in Europe\" presents a historical investigation into one continent's troubled relationship with cultural difference.\n\nThis event is part of IRWG's Gender: New Works\, New Questions series\, which spotlights recent publications by U-M faculty members and allows for deeper discussion by an interdisciplinary panel.\n\nBook sales provided by Common Language Bookstore.\n\nEvent Accessibility: Ramp and elevator access at the E. Washington Street entrance (by the loading dock). There are accessible restrooms on the south end of Lane Hall\, on each floor of the building. A gender neutral restroom is available on the first floor.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:CM-AMO Seminar | On the Emergence of Coulomb Forces: a quest for a rigorous version of QED
DESCRIPTION:The possibility is investigated that Coulomb forces are emergent forces. More precisely\, the hypothesis is that Coulomb forces are carried by transversely polarized photons. Omission of the longitudinal and scalar photons removes some of the difficulties of standard QED. The second modification is the introduction of reducible representations of the canonical commutation and anti-commutation relations. Its main effect is that integrations over the wave vectors are postponed to the moment of evaluation of expectation values. In this way the problem of ultraviolet divergences becomes manageable. An overview of the theory is presented and some experimental consequences are discussed.\n

SUMMARY:Other:Development of New Technologies for Medicinal Chemistry
DESCRIPTION:                        Drug discovery programs are largely driven by the tools and techniques available to the synthetic medicinal chemist. Advancing these tools is critical to continued effectiveness in discovering molecules well suited to testing biological hypotheses in the clinic. This talk will highlight two such initiatives: strategic development of new chemical methods and creation of a platform to better integrate high-throughput experimentation into daily work.                     \n                       \n                                                \n                       \n                                                \n                       \n                                                \n                       \n                                                \n                       \n                        \nJoseph Tucker (Pfizer)

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:Dist. University Professorship Lecture: Locating the nodes: from sensor arrays to genomic networks
DESCRIPTION:Abstract:\nSpatially distributed measurements have been used for hundreds of years to perform geolocation\, geodesy and triangulation.  In WW1 acoustic sensor arrays were used to locate the direction of cannon fire based on correlation between sensor readings. Sensors in the Internet-of-Things (IoT) auto-locate their nodes  based on correlation between received pilot signals. In genomics influential nodes are located in transcriptional or lineage networks based on correlation between omic profiles. Whether the node is a target\, a sensor\, or a nucleotide sequence\, the problem of node localization is of central interest in many disciplines of science and technology.  In this talk  I will provide perspectives on the general node localization problem\, discuss solutions and algorithms\,  and address future opportunities and challenges.\n\nBIo:\nAlfred O. Hero III is the John H. Holland Distinguished University Professor of Electrical Engineering and Computer Science and the R. Jamison and Betty Williams Professor of Engineering. He is also the Co-Director of the University's Michigan Institute for Data Science (MIDAS). He is also a professor of Biomedical Engineering and Statistics. \n\nHero's recent research interests are in high dimensional spatio-temporal data\, multi-modal data integration\, statistical signal processing\, and machine learning. Of particular interest are applications to social networks\, network security and forensics\, computer vision\, and personalized health. \n\nHero received a B.S. (summa cum laude) from Boston University (1980) and a Ph.D from Princeton University (1984)\, both in Electrical Engineering. He joined the faculty of the University of Michigan in 1984. He received the University of Michigan Distinguished Faculty Achievement Award (2011)\, the Stephen S. Attwood Excellence in Engineering Award (2017)\, the IEEE Signal Processing Society Meritorious Service Award (1998)\, the IEEE Third Millenium Medal (2000)\, and the IEEE Signal Processing Society Technical Achievement Award (2014). In 2015 he received the IEEE Signal Processing Society Award\, which is the highest career award bestowed by this Society. Hero was President of the IEEE Signal Processing Society (2006-2008) and was on the Board of Directors of the IEEE (2009-2011) where he served as Director of Division IX (Signals and Applications). He is a Fellow of the Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers (IEEE)\, and is chair of the Committee on Applied and Theoretical Statistics (CATS) of the US National Academies of Science.\n\nHero is presenting this talk to commemorate being named the John H.

SUMMARY:Presentation:BOOK EVENT: PROF. MARTIN MURRAY’S “THE URBANISM OF EXCEPTION” (CAMBRIDGE UNIVERSITY PRESS\, 2017)
DESCRIPTION:Join us in celebrating Prof. Martin Murray’s most recent book\, “The Urbanism of Exception.” He will be speaking informally about the book\, followed by Q&A\, and there will be the opportunity to purchase signed copies of the book. Refreshments will be served.\n\nThe Urbanism of Exception: The Dynamics of Global City Building in the Twenty-First Century (Cambridge University Press\, 2017).\nThis book challenges the conventional (modernist-inspired) understanding of urbanization as a universal process tied to the ideal-typical model of the modern metropolis with its origins in the grand Western experience of city-building. At the start of the twenty-first century\, the familiar idea of the 'city' - or 'urbanism' as we know it - has experienced such profound mutations in both structure and form that the customary epistemological categories and prevailing conceptual frameworks that predominate in conventional urban theory are no longer capable of explaining the evolving patterns of city-making. Global urbanism has increasingly taken shape as vast\, distended city-regions\, where urbanizing landscapes are increasingly fragmented into discontinuous assemblages of enclosed enclaves characterized by global connectivity and concentrated wealth\, on the one side\, and distressed zones of neglect and impoverishment\, on the other. These emergent patterns of what might be called enclave urbanism have gone hand-in-hand with the new modes of urban governance\, where the crystallization of privatized regulatory regimes has effectively shielded wealthy enclaves from public oversight and interference.\n\nBrief Bio: Professor Martin Murray began his academic career as sociologist with a strong foundation in urban geography. His current research engages the fields of urban studies and planning\, global urbanism\, cultural geography\, distressed urbanism\, development\, historical sociology\, and African studies. In addition to six books and three co-edited volumes\, he has produced close to seventy journal articles and book chapters that focus on diverse geographical areas of the world at different historical periods. After his first book on French colonialism in Indochina (University of California Press)\, Professor Murray pursued a deep and abiding interest in the politics of South Africa. He has published two books from an eventual  trilogy on Johannesburg: Taming the Disorderly City: The Spatial Landscape of Johannesburg after Aparthreid (Cornell University Press\, 2008)\; City of Extremes: The Spatial Landscape of Johannesburg (Duke University Press\, 22011)\; and Panic City: Crime\, Private Security\, and Extended Security Networks in Johannesburg (under review).  He has also published Commemorating and Forgetting: Challenges for the New South Africa (University of Minnesota Press\, 2013).

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:ELI Winter Workshop Series: Academic Small Talk
DESCRIPTION:Making conversation or “small talk” is one of the most challenging types of speaking to master in a second language. In this workshop\, we will explore conversation topics\, turn-taking strategies\, active listening\, and sources for sample conversations. We will consider different varieties of small talk in common graduate student contexts\, such as getting to know classmates or seeming friendly and confident at a job interview or as a GSI. Come ready to practice with one another and to identify effective ways to practice on your own.

SUMMARY:Film Screening:CREES Film. The Constitution
DESCRIPTION:Rajko Grlić\, director. In Croatian with English subtitles (93 min.\, 2016). \n    \nFour very different people live in the same building but avoid each other because of differences in how they live their lives\, what they believe in\, and where they come from. They would probably never exchange a word\, but misfortune pushes them towards each other. Their lives entangle in ways that profoundly challenge deep-held beliefs and prejudices surrounding material status\, sexual orientation\, nationality\, and religion. Slowly\, and even painfully\, they begin to open up to each other and recognize the essential humanity each of them possesses.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:Homegoing: A Conversation with Yaa Gyasi
DESCRIPTION:ASL interpretation will be provided. FREE AND OPEN TO THE PUBLIC. NO TICKETS NEEDED.\n\nYaa Gyasi will be the featured speaker for the 2018 Jill S. Harris Memorial Lecture. The event will be structured as a conversation between Gyasi and U-M Professors Gaurav Desai and Aida Levy-Hussen.\n\nGyasi’s award-winning debut novel Homegoing has also been selected as the 2018 Washtenaw Reads book.\n\nYaa Gyasi was born in Ghana in 1989\, raised in Huntsville\, Alabama\, and is a graduate of the Iowa Writer’s Workshop. Homegoing follows the parallel paths of two half-sisters and their descendants through eight generations: from the Gold Coast to the plantations of Mississippi\, from the American Civil War to Jazz Age Harlem.\n\n“We are delighted to welcome Yaa Gyasi to Ann Arbor for the 2018 Jill S. Harris Lecture\,” said Peggy McCracken\, director of the Institute for the Humanities. “Homegoing has found many readers in Ann Arbor and beyond\; it's an engrossing novel that demonstrates the power of fiction to explore the ways in which the past shapes our present.”\n\nThe Jill S. Harris Memorial Endowment was established in 1985 in memory of Jill Harris\, a resident of Chicago and undergraduate student at U-M who passed away due to injuries from an auto accident. Established by Roger and Meredith Harris\, Jill’s parents\, her grandparents Allan and Norma Harris\, and friends\, the fund brings a distinguished visitor to campus each year who will appeal to undergraduate students interested in the humanities and the arts.

SUMMARY:Performance:Kuinka w/ sg The Accidentals
DESCRIPTION:The name Kuinka (coo-WINK-uh) comes from the Finnish for “how”\; how does a band continue to evolve artistically and challenge themselves while staying true to their own roots? For Kuinka\, the answer comes in the form of letting go: a joyful acquiescence to their cumulative love of songwriting and shared experience\, regardless of genre or instrumentation. Brothers Zach and Nathan Hamer\, along with Miranda Zickler and Jillian Walker\, came together in 2014 to form a unique breed of string band\; one proudly defiant of preconceived notions of what fits under the label Americana. The Stranger in Seattle has praised the band's \"seraphic vocals\, bookended by ukulele\, cello\, and heavy percussion [that] will leave you giddy and glad to be alive.\" They come to Michigan with a recent release\, \"Stay Up Late.\"
