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 Beauty Meets My Mess: Mixed Media Collage
DESCRIPTION:Re Kielar was born in Chicago’s little Italy neighborhood with her grandparents upstairs and aunt and uncle across the courtyard. Her world was very Italian\, and when she walked outside\, she felt like she was leaving one country and entering another. Ever since she was a child\, she has loved paint and texture and seen beauty in the most unlikely places. Her artwork expresses human emotion through drawing in ink with rough papers\, old book pages\, metal embellishments and natural objects. Each abstract collage is coupled with her poetry\, so each piece is a walk into her soul. She hopes that by sharing that which is broken\, we can find healing spaces that knit our hearts together.

The group of images on exhibit is from a project called On Blue: A Meditation. Blue is… tranquil pools of clear water\; languid clouds drifting in azure skies\; mood indigo\; cobalt glass\; cerulean blue eyes\; sapphire cornflowers\; poignant music\, emotion and sentiment. Blue is a rare color in nature\, yet found in the largest things such as sea\, lake and sky\, as well as some of the smallest: sapphires\, forget-me-nots and delicate tropical butterflies.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Gifts of Art presents Timeless Instants: Still Life Photographs
DESCRIPTION:Originally from Kansas City\, Tina West discovered photography while studying sculpture. She sees her photographs more as paintings\, and her still lifes have powerful cast shadows and frequent light play. Influenced by Gerhardt Richter and surrealism\, West’s images communicate a sense of being\, connecting not only the objects in the photographs\, but also the viewer and the photograph. She draws inspiration from the objects in her vast collection of unique treasures\, and she speaks to their unreserved timelessness with maturity and wonder. All of the images in this exhibit were created using instant film in a 4x5 view camera.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Mr. Vignaud's Maps: Unraveling a Cartographic Mystery from the Golden Age of Dutch Cartography
DESCRIPTION:In 1922 the University of Michigan acquired the library of Henry Vignaud\, an American diplomat living in Paris\, whose extensive personal library included thousands of books\, atlases\, maps\, and other publications. Many of Vignaud's maps were extracted from broken atlases\, originally published by the illustrious Hondius and Janssonius publishing houses. Staff in the Clark Library sought to organize these fascinating maps based on their physical characteristics and similarities\, with the ultimate goal of reassembling the original atlases.\n\nThis exhibit and the accompanying online exhibit (https://www.lib.umich.edu/online-exhibits/exhibits/show/rediscoveringvignaud) feature the results of their remarkable findings\, as well as a glimpse into the history of the Golden Age of mapmaking in 17th century Amsterdam.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Abstract Ancestry: Machine-Works on Paper
DESCRIPTION:Detroit-based artist Matthew Angelo Harrison takes a satirical look at historical narratives—exploring issues of race\, design\, mortality and industry—by making use of analog and digital technologies. For his solo show\, \"Abstract Ancestry\,\" at University of Michigan Institute for the Humanities\, Harrison will produce a suite of mechanical drawings with his homemade 3D printer. Using books and documents containing problematic historical portrayals as the substrate for his drawings\, Harrison is able to explore issues of representation. The exhibition also examines abstraction\, setting the printers to work at a low resolution ensures that imperfections and variability come through in these machine-produced drawings.\n\nOn April 5\, join us as we celebrate the opening of our final exhibition of the academic year with our 2018 Efroymson Emerging Artist in Residence Matthew Angelo Harrison. Harrison will be in conversation with curator Amanda Krugliak.\n\nThis project is funded by a grant from the Efroymson Family Fund.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Interior Streets
DESCRIPTION:Join us March 9\, 3pm\, for a reception and Carl Wilson in conversation with our curator Amanda Krugliak.\n\nThe \"Interior Streets\" exhibition features the work of Detroit artist Carl Wilson\, known for his stark black and white linocut prints. The self-taught artist sees himself as a documentarian of lives easily ignored in a world obsessed with materialism and celebrity. His work frequently highlights not only the strength found in conquering the everyday and mundane\, but also the pain and defeat of those not able to rise to the occasion. His love of film noir and pulp fiction novels from the 1940s and '50s has led him to experiment with minimalist animation and comic book illustration. He embraces the whimsy hidden in the darkness.\n\nCarl is the recipient of a 2013 Kresge Artist Fellowship and is an alumni of the historic Yaddo Artists’ Community.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Quaker Oats Makes a Movie: A Scrumdiddlyumptious Wonka Adventure
DESCRIPTION:​Quaker Oats forged a new path in the entertainment industry by jointly marketing consumer packaged goods and a major motion picture in 1971\, Willy Wonka and the Chocolate Factory. Having never made a motion picture before\, their foray into the filmmaking industry was unexpected and unprecedented. The company saw this film as an opportunity to essentially make a feature-length commercial for their new line of Wonka candy products.\n\nStudents in Matthew Solomon's class\, SAC 355: Authorship and the Archive\, culled though hundreds of production documents related to the film to curate an exhibit that tells a little known behind-the-scenes story about one of the most beloved films.

SUMMARY:Conference / Symposium:The Poetics of Passing: Interrogating Self-Fashioning as the Other in Zainichi Cultural Production
DESCRIPTION:Please note--this conference will be held on the Michigan State University campus\, in East Lansing. Complete conference information is available here: https://zainichistudies2018.wixsite.com/symposium\n\nTwo Days of Powerful Conversations\n\nThe symposium\, “The Poetics of Passing: Interrogating Self-Fashioning as the Other in Zainichi Cultural Production\,” seeks to illuminate “zainichi” as a locus for theorizing the notion of passing. Since Koreans and Japanese represent different ethnic groups that cannot be differentiated racially\, rethinking received notions of passing through an in-depth study of zainichi literary and visual narratives can help us further theorize hegemonic discourses on passing\, as well as the consequences\, effects\, means\, and strategies of passing (or not passing).\n\nThis two-day symposium will consist of four panels with 12 presenters\, 4 moderators\, and 8 discussants (detailed program here) together with an open discussion forum each day.\n\nCome join us!

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Exercising the Eye: The Gertrude Kasle Collection
DESCRIPTION:Gallery hours are 11 a.m.–5 p.m. Tuesday–Saturday and 12–5 p.m. Sunday\; galleries are closed on Mondays.\n\nThis exhibition celebrates Gertrude Kasle (1917–2016)\, a key figure in the formation of Detroit’s contemporary art community in the 1960s and 70s. A pioneering female gallerist\, Kasle provided midwest audiences with a venue in which to experience avant-garde art from centers like New York City\, while also supporting and exhibiting regional artists. Featuring a collection of paintings\, works on paper\, and sculptures from the height of the Abstract Expressionist movement through the early twenty-first century\, 'Exercising the Eye' speaks to the relationships Kasle fostered with local\, national\, and international artists and her appreciation for artistic expression and experimentation. Critical voices from the last fifty years include Philip Guston\, Jane Hammond\, Grace Hartigan\, Jasper Johns\, Michele Oka Doner\, and Robert Rauschenberg. The exhibition offers visitors a unique opportunity to explore a dynamic moment in Detroit’s cultural history and insight into Kasle’s love of looking and learning.\n\nLead support for 'Exercising the Eye: The Gertrude Kasle Collection' is provided by the University of Michigan Office of the Provost\, Michigan Medicine\, and the University of Michigan CEW Frances and Sydney Lewis Visiting Leaders Fund.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:New at UMMA: Illuminated Manuscript
DESCRIPTION:Books of hours—custom-made for private devotion in the Christian faith—were a bestseller in medieval Europe. These manuscripts incorporated prayers\, hymns\, biblical stories\, and monthly calendars featuring religious feast days\, which were often supplemented by images painted in exquisite detail. Today\, books of hours are a testament to the visually rich material culture of the Middle Ages. UMMA was recently gifted a bejeweled double-sided calendar leaf for January. Executed on parchment\, the page highlights the material opulence and artistry involved in manuscript illumination. Accompanying the calendar are painted images or miniatures of the labor and characteristic activity of the month\, and Aquarius\, the zodiac sign for January\, embodied by a man collecting water from a stream. The folio’s luminous\, gilded surface\, accentuated by the use of bright colors\, was meant to transport the medieval viewer into a state of spiritual transcendence. \n\nThis work was recently gifted to UMMA by Mrs. Carrol Robertsen.

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:How to Have Reasons for Your Values
DESCRIPTION:In philosophy\, we provide arguments for our positions.  So it seems that moral philosophers ought to be in the business of providing arguments for moral and ethical convictions.  But I have elsewhere argued that we should not expect to be able to provide arguments of the kind that philosophers paradigmatically make for our most central\, important or fundamental normative convictions.  To put that another way\, we cannot reason to our fundamental moral or ethical commitments.  However\, as I have also argued\, this should not lead us to conclude that we could not have reasons for such commitments.  In this paper I attempt to make some progress towards a positive characterization of what it means to have reasons for an attitude that we cannot reason to by considering how we ideally come to adopt or acquire our normative convictions.  I will argue that\, while we cannot be argued into fundamental normative commitments\, we can be educated into them.  Moreover\, what distinguishes such an education from mere conditioning is sensitivity to the reasons or rational grounds for the commitments.

SUMMARY:Meeting:Wittgenstein's Philosophical Investigations
DESCRIPTION:We write to invite you to a reading group on Wittgenstein’s Philosophical Investigations. This group will not require preparation prior to the meetings. The format of the reading group will be a slow but deep dive into the Investigations by reading aloud and then discussing the book\, section by section. We hope to make it through 5 to 10 sections each meeting. After the discussion on a section dries up\, we’ll move to the next section until the hour and a half of the meeting is over. This design is meant to accommodate busy schedules\, and it also should be amenable to varying degrees of familiarity with the Investigations and Wittgenstein’s other work.\n\nOur first meeting will be next Friday (February 2) from 1:30-3:00pm. Location: Angell Hall 3184. All interested faculty\, staff\, and graduate students are welcome to attend. RSVP to Bryan Kim-Butler (bkimbutl@umich.edu) and Ben Mangrum (bmangrum@umich.edu). If you can’t make it for the first meeting but are interested\, please let us know and we’ll add you to the mailing list.\n\nWe'll bring photocopies of the sections likely to be read and discussed each meeting. However\, you’re also welcome to bring your own copy of the Investigations.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:AE Department Seminar: Apparent Wing Stiffness Using Load Control
DESCRIPTION:Apparent Wing Stiffness Using Load Control\n\nRafael Palacios \nImperial College \nLondon\n\nWe investigate computational methods for the design of aerostructures in which aerodynamic load control strategies allow for high compliance. This talk will introduce first modelling approaches for coupled aeroelasticity and flight dynamics of very flexible aircraft. A medium-fidelity approach for nonlinear simulation and analysis\, based on geometrically-nonlinear beams and unsteady vortex-lattice aerodynamics\, will be introduced and exemplified in the study of the dynamics of solar-powered aircraft. Aerodynamic load control will be then demonstrated in two prototypical examples: first\, the response of a flexible vehicle in wake-vortex encounter will be investigated using a feedforward strategy for fast response\; second\, high improvements in the maneuverability of a very flexible flying wing will be demonstrated using predictive control with model updating. The latter is built on an original methodology for a nonlinear model reduction in structural dynamics\, which will be finally discussed.\n \nAbout the speaker... \n\nRafael Palacios is Reader in Aeronautics at Imperial College London. He is Aeronautical Engineer from Universidad Politécnica\, Madrid (1998)\, and Ph.D. in Aerospace Engineering from the University of Michigan (2005)\, which he attended first with a Fulbright and later with an FXB Fellowship. His PhD received the AIAA Foundation Orville and Wilbur Wright Graduate Award. His research is on computational methods in aeroservoelasticity and fluid-structure interactions\, with applications to nonlinear aeroelastic design and control of large offshore wind turbines and air vehicles. This work has been funded by the UK Research Council\, European Commission\, AFOSR\, QinetiQ and Airbus. Rafael is associate editor of Progress in Aerospace Sciences\, the Journal of Fluids and Structures\, and the Journal of Aircraft\, a Fellow of the Royal Aeronautical Society\, and a member of the AIAA Structural Dynamics Technical Committee.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Ninth Annual International Graduate Student Workshop | Armenian Childhood(s): Histories and Theories of Childhood and Youth in Armenian Studies
DESCRIPTION:For complete workshop program\, please visit: https://ii.umich.edu/asp/news-events/all-events/workshops/april-2018--armenian-childhood-s---histories-a.html\n\nIn recent years\, the study of childhood and youth has gained increasing attention that has resulted in innovative interdisciplinary scholarship. The field of Childhood Studies of the last decade has concentrated on modern childhood(s) and youth\, and has questioned the meanings that adults and governmental bodies attribute to children. For example\, universal characteristics\, such as “innocence\,” “incompetence\,” and “vulnerability\,” defining children and youth have been examined and challenged by scholars from a variety of fields\, who insist that “childhood”\, like ethnicity\, gender\, and class\, is a constructed social category. Pushing methodological boundaries to explore political\, historical\, cultural\, economic\, and social formations\, structures and contexts across time and place\, scholars have begun to consider children and youth as agents in their political and social environment rather than passive members of society. \n    \n   This workshop will initiate an inter-disciplinary conversation about Armenian childhood\, children\, and youth. The goal is to consider new perspectives\, methodologies\, and cross-disciplinary frameworks that will put Armenian Studies in conversation with Childhood Studies. We aim to bring together theoretical and methodological approaches along with empirical studies across disciplines that use childhood as a category of analysis and/or concentrate on children’s agencies and experiences in Armenian history\, politics\, society\, economy\, and culture. We see both childhood and youth as fluid categories and concepts that are subject to flexible interpretations and definitions.\n\nPhoto caption: Miss Harnack with a group of (Armenian) orphans\nCredit: Der Christliche Orient (Vol.15\, 1914)

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:ONCE A FURY: RECORDING  THE SEPARATIST REVOLUTION
DESCRIPTION:This presentation offers outtakes of interviews with the Furies\, a lesbian separatist collective from the early 1970s who published an underground newspaper with a national run. The group formed quickly and ended dramatically\, with multiple purges\, suspicion of FBI involvement\, and numerous interpersonal conflicts—most of which they wrote about in their newspaper. Now\, 50 years later\, they’re talking—and the IRB-exempt study has turned more problematic with legal and ethical complications of authorship and representation. In this presentation\, I offer some insights about the politics of voicing\, focusing in particular on the process of attempting to ethically and respectfully listen to and represent other’s stories.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:Chef & Writer Tunde Wey in Conversation with Rebekah Modrak
DESCRIPTION:Tunde Wey opened a restaurant in Detroit in 2013. A year later\, realizing that the influx of capital to the city was not contributing to an inclusive revival but to the profit of those already “fluent in the language of privilege\,” Tunde left the restaurant and moved to New Orleans. He now travels around the country holding dinners\, using food as a medium to have conversations about race\, equity\, and cultural values. Recently\, the Nigerian-born chef and writer has received national press for Saartj\, his lunch counter in New Orleans where white patrons were asked to pay $30 per plate and people of color were charged $12 per plate as a way to call attention to racial wealth disparity. Participants of color could “opt-in” to receive the profit redistribution. In Ann Arbor\, Tunde will host two private dinners for local residents and advocates concerned with equity and race\, and will offer food truck conversations for four nights.\n\nAt the Ann Arbor District Library\, artist and Stamps School Professor Rebekah Modrak (whose works\, such as Rethink Shinola\, critically intervene in consumption) will moderate a conversation with Tunde about his work as a chef\, his decision to use food as provocation\, the possibility of transforming consumptive acts through dinners and pop-up restaurants\, discriminatory development\, racial wealth disparity\, and the importance of self-determination in affecting the outcomes of your life and community.  \n\nTunde’s talk is co-sponsored by the Ann Arbor District Library\, The Ginsberg Center for Community Service and Learning\, and Penny W. Stamps School of Art & Design.

SUMMARY:Performance:Mountain Heart
DESCRIPTION:Mountain Heart offers bluegrass and more. This band as been fearlessly revolutionizing the way acoustic music can be presented and played. The band's name has been synonymous with cutting-edge excellence in bluegrass circles since the group's creation. Widely known throughout the music industry for continually redefining the boundaries of acoustic music\, the band has gained legions of loyal fans as a result of both their superlative musicianship and their incendiary live performances. Mountain Heart's music always fell just barely under the bluegrass umbrella\, and now\, from large outdoor folk music\, Americana\, jam band\, and bluegrass festivals\, to sold-out shows opening for Southern rock icons like The Marshall Tucker Band\, The Tedeschi Trucks Band and Lynyrd Skynyrd\, Mountain Heart has been making an undeniable connection with wider audiences. Whenever they come to The Ark\, they tear the house down—and at the 2018 Ann Arbor Folk Festival\, they just had a bigger house to tear down.
