SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:Teach Out Series: Privacy\, Reputation\, and Identity in a Digital Age
DESCRIPTION:Reputation has long been prized. In its traditional form\, people who know something about you use this knowledge to form opinions. Their collective sense of who you are—your reputation—affects how people treat you: it shapes all of your social interactions.\n\nIn today's world\, additional knowledge about you resides in \"big data\" collected by individuals\, organizations\, companies\, and governments. Increasingly\, data about you are being processed by algorithms to draw conclusions: to form something like opinions. \n\nThis combination of data and algorithms creates a new digital reputation which increasingly shapes your life\, from recommending purchases and suggesting friends to prompting actions based solely on your digital footprint.\n\nWho gathers\, owns\, and controls this data? Where do they get it\, and how? How do they use it? Is it shared with people\, processed by algorithms\, used to construct your choices? What should we think about all of this?\n\nIn this Teach-Out we will consider questions of privacy\, surveillance\, reputation\, and identity using a case study approach. Learners will hear from experts and engage in conversation using real-world scenarios across multiple topic areas.\n\nTeach-Out.org

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.

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:Lecture / Discussion:OPIOIDS IN AMERICA: THE ROLE OF SURGERY
DESCRIPTION:Dr. Jennifer Waljee is an Associate Professor in the Section of Plastic Surgery. She has a B.S. and master’s degrees in public health at the University of Michigan and M.D. from Emory University. She completed General Surgery\, Plastic and Reconstructive Surgery and Hand Surgery at the University of Michigan. Her research focuses on patient-centered outcomes following surgery\, including the efficacy of patient-reported outcomes\, and she currently serves as a Co-Director of the Michigan Opioid Prescribing Engagement Network\, or \nMichigan-OPEN\, an initiative that seeks to transform pain management and curb opioid abuse in the state of Michigan.\n                                     \nOpioid-related morbidity and mortality has reached epidemic \nproportions in United States. Although much attention is focused on the role of opioid \nprescribing for chronic pain\, the role of opioid analgesics for acute pain and procedural care is less understood. In this discussion we will examine the role of procedural care in the opioid epidemic and statewide efforts in Michigan to develop best practices to curb over prescribing and enhance opioid disposal in our communities.\n\nThis is the second of a six-lecture series. The subject is Faces of Addiction. The next lecture will be May 3. The title is Managing Chronic Pain Without Opioids.

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: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:Other:Tunde Wey: Food Truck Conversations on Race\, Equity\, and Segregation
DESCRIPTION:In late April 2018\, the Stamps School of Art & Design will host Witt Visiting Artist Tunde Wey. Recently\, the Nigerian-born chef and writer has received national press for Saartj\, his lunch counter in New Orleans where white patrons were requested to pay $30 per plate and people of color were charged $12 per plate. Participants of color could “opt-in” to receive the profit redistribution. The project was a way to explore and call attention to racial wealth disparity. Data collected during the project revealed the power of social pressure to re-frame conversations about equity and race.\n\nRebekah Modrak\, Associate Professor at the Stamps School\, is hosting Wey for his Ann Arbor visit.\n\nAs part of his campus visit\, Wey will create a public dinnertime food truck dining experience Tuesday\, April 24 and Wednesday April 25 at the U-M Ginsberg Center at the corner of E. University and Hill Streets in Ann Arbor. The food truck will appear at Argus Farm Stop (325 W. Liberty Rd\, Ann Arbor) on Thursday\, April 26 and Friday\, April 27. Hours of operation are from 5-8 pm. These dining spaces will aim to use food as a way to explore the ways in which racial disparities\, equity\, and privilege play out locally. \n\nFood Truck Locations/Hours\nTuesday\, April 24\, Ginsberg Center (1024 Hill St.)\, 5 - 8 pm\nWednesday April 25\, Ginsberg Center (corner of E.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:Paul M. Fitts Lecture:  The Affordances Model of Population Disparities in Physical and Mental Health
DESCRIPTION:I propose that the underlying etiology of population health disparities are causally linked through individual chronic stressor exposures\, unhealthy coping behaviors\, and the stress response network and related biological systems over the individual life-course.  An extension of this framework questions the static categorization of race\; instead arguing that race is a complex construct that in adulthood represents a broad set of life experiences that cannot be arrayed along a simple demographic/social dimension assigned at birth.  I suggest instead that all individuals are racialized through their lived experiences over the life-course\, within a particular culture\, during unique periods of historical time.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:“The Hardest Unpaid Job in the World”
DESCRIPTION:“The Hardest Unpaid Job in the World”\n\nThat is how author Jill Abraham Hummer\, in her new book\, First Ladies and American Women\, describes how Pat Nixon once summed up her role as First Lady on an official trip to Africa. One of Nixon’s grueling days included a nine-hour sleepless flight and 12 hours of events for her to attend.\n\nDr. Hummer’s book examines the demanding role of an American First Lady. The hours are endless\, there are no guidelines\, no salaries...yet somehow the women occupying the White House have risen to the task and all have left their individual fingerprints on history.\n\nFrom Lou Hoover to Lady Bird Johnson to Nancy Reagan and Michelle Obama... and now Melania Trump\, all live with the harsh scrutiny of their personal lives. And all are measured by their impact on history.\n\nFirst Ladies are unelected...but have tremendous behind-the-scenes access and clout. After all\, they have the President’s ear. They are all different\, but these wives\, mothers\, intellectuals...feminists and fashionistas...dwell in the most elite circle of American political life. And in their own unique way\, each First Lady partly defines what it means to be a woman in America.\n\nHummer will provide an intimate glimpse of these unique women in a discussion of her new book First Ladies and American Women: In Politics and at Home.  Dr. Hummer\, an associate professor of political science at Wilson College\, focuses her research on American first ladies and women and the presidency.\n\nPlease join us. Free admission. Free parking. Book sales/signing and reception following the program.
