SUMMARY:Exhibition:Animal Friends: Ceramic Sculpture
DESCRIPTION:Marcia Polenberg loves animals\, each with its own unique personality\, intelligence and expressive range of emotions. Using terra-cotta sculpture clay\, Polenberg hand builds her ceramic animals\, seemingly bringing them to life.

Every sculpture is glazed and fired many times\, building up a rich\, textured colored surface. Holding an MFA from the U-M Penny W. Stamps School of Art & Design in ceramics and sculpture and a BA from the City University of New York in painting\, Polenberg widely exhibits her creative works in several media: ceramics\, paint\, graphite and pastel.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Celebrating Science & Art
DESCRIPTION:The brilliantly colored images in this exhibit were taken in the course of scientific research\, and are beautiful in their detail\, form and symmetry. For each one\, an accompanying explanation describes its significance. The subjects of the images are cells\, tissues and organs\, from a wide variety of biological sources (plants\, worms\, fruit flies\, fish\, mice and yes\, even human brain). The colors are added by investigators\, to allow them to see the otherwise transparent tissues. By looking at these microscopic images\, you will learn about research into normal embryonic development as well as cutting-edge investigations into diseases such as basal cell carcinoma\, bipolar disease\, epilepsy and cancer.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:David Cope: Player of Invisible Keys
DESCRIPTION:Celebrate the work of Michigan poet David Cope\, once described by Allen Ginsberg as one of the \"leading lights of the next generation.\" This exhibit draws on drafts\, proofs\, and other documents from Cope's archive to offer a glimpse into his poetic and editorial process.\n\nWorking most often in the Objectivist tradition of Charles Reznikoff\, Carl Rakosi\, and George Oppen\, David Cope has a particular gift for descriptive detail and for juxtaposing the the intimacy of daily life with commentary on the arc of current events and the particularity of personal relationships with the universality of human experience.

Additionally\, for more than forty years\, Cope has edited and published a small press literary magazine\, The Big Scream\, providing a venue for more than 200 poets\, including both big names names and younger\, lesser-known poets.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Exhibition | Urban Biographies\, Ancient and Modern
DESCRIPTION:Human beings are political animals\, said the Greek philosopher Aristotle: animals that live in the “polis\,” the Greek word for city. Over two thousand years later\, we are still political animals\, and the study of ancient cities is of abiding interest\, for our perceptions of the urban centers of the past continue to exert a powerful hold on modern culture. \n\nThis exhibition showcases three Classical cities where the University of Michigan sponsors field projects: Gabii in Italy\, Olynthos in Greece\, and Notion in Turkey. The archaeologists excavating these cities\, in collaboration with students and faculty from U-M’s Taubman College of Architecture and Urban Planning\, are comparing their findings to projects of urban rebuilding in contemporary Detroit\, asking two main questions: How do contemporary archaeological methods facilitate the study of both ancient and modern cities? And how can the study of the past help illuminate the challenges and opportunities facing Detroit today? \n\nLead Curator: Christopher Ratté\nCo-Curators: Lisa Nevett\, Nicola Terrenato\, and Kathy Velikov\n\nVisit the exhibition website: http://exhibitions.kelsey.lsa.umich.edu/urban-biographies

SUMMARY:Class / Instruction:\"British Empire in India - A History\"
DESCRIPTION:British East India Company\, a trading concern formed in London in the year 1600\, sent some merchants to India to buy textiles\, spices and other commodities which were in demand in Europe at the time.\nOver the next hundred and fifty years thee merchants prospered\, got involved in the political intrigues among the local rulers\, and became rulers of the country. The Company ruled India for a hundred years and subsequently yielded power to British parliament as master of India.\nIn the process a minor European country evolved into a global empire and a super power. Economic crises in the 20th century and two world wars wrecked the empire and led to the birth of independent India\, Pakistan and Bangladesh. The lectures include the history of conquest\, subordination and rule\; and the resulting political\, economic and cultural changes\; and the birth of a modern democracy in India.\nThis Study Group for those 50 or above will meet Oct. 3 through Nov. 21. No lecture on Oct. 13.

SUMMARY:Class / Instruction:“I took myself for a walk for a while:” Children Making Meaning Through Story
DESCRIPTION:Fairy tales\, fables\, picture books and stories about real life: adults use all kinds of narrative to teach children important lessons. But what is it the children hear when they listen to all those words?\n\nIn this interactive workshop we will make our way through an alphabet of stories told by children. As we explore the meaning-making they do through story\, we will strengthen our own creative and critical thinking skills.\n\n For 20 years\, Instructor Resa Matlock has been collecting\, connecting and nurturing children’s stories\, using the work of Vivian Paley\, kindergarten teacher and MacArthur “genius\,” as a guide.  This study group for those 50 and over will meet Wednesdays\, 11-1\, from October 3 – November 21.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Abstraction\, Color\, and Politics in the Early 1970s
DESCRIPTION:Can abstract art be about politics? In the early 1970s\, that question was hotly debated as artists\, critics\, and the public grappled with the relationship between art\, politics\, race\, and feminism. Many of those debates centered on bringing to light the roles that gender and race played in how “great modern art” was defined and assessed\, and on employing art to advance civil rights. Within this discourse\, abstraction had an especially fraught role. To many\, the decision by women artists and artists of color  to make abstract art seemed to represent a retreat from politics and protest: an abnegation of a commitment to civil rights and feminism. \"Abstraction\, Color\, and Politics in the Early 1970s\" presents large-scale work by four leading American artists—Helen Frankenthaler\, Sam Gilliam\, Al Loving\, and Louise Nevelson—who chose abstraction as a means of expression within the intense political climate of the early 1970s.\n\nLead support for \"Abstraction\, Color\, and Politics in the Early 1970s\" is provided by the University of Michigan Office of the Provost\, Michigan Medicine\, the Richard and Rosann Noel Endowment Fund\, the Herbert W. and Susan L. Johe Endowment\, and the University of Michigan Institute for Research on Women and Gender. Additional generous support is provided by the Robert and Janet Miller Fund and the University of Michigan Department of Political Science.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Beyond Borders: Global Africa
DESCRIPTION:More than ever in the era of globalization\, ideas traverse geographic\, generational\, and cultural boundaries\, even as national borders seem to be closing. 'Beyond Borders: Global Africa' reflects on this moment by considering how Africa and its artists have been at the center of complex histories of encounter and exchange for centuries.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Have We Met? Dialogues on Memory and Desire
DESCRIPTION:Have We Met: Dialogues on Memory and Desire draws inspiration from Ann Arbor’s legacy of social movements (Anti-War Movement\, Civil Rights Movements) and experimental art practices (The Once Group) from the late-1950s to the 1970s as its point of departure. It brings together archival materials and reproductions from the University of Michigan’s Labadie Collection and the Bentley Library in conjunction with radical artworks by diverse\, multi-generational artists and designers whose works are deeply influenced by the ideas of freedom and self-determination\; re-writing the canonical accounts of history\; and building contemporary culture and solidarity through collective action.\n\nAt a time when the idea of citizenship in the United States is being deeply challenged and redefined through horrific occurrences of gun violence and police brutality towards racialized and queer civilians and refugees\, this exhibition asks what role art institutions can play in building inclusive and vibrant creative spaces the 21st Century. Have We Met? Dialogues on Memory and Desire retraces and learns from models of collectivity and organizing mobilized by artists\, designers\, and cultural producers in the past and present as a lens to understand the contemporary moment and re-imagine the future.  It explores the complex relationships and at times overlapping and contested concerns between contemporary art\, design\, and social justice that continually influence and inform one another.\n\nArtists: Rudolf Baranik\, Stephanie Dinkins\, Emory Douglas\, Brendan Fernandes\, Chitra Ganesh\, Carole Harris\, Maren Hassinger\, Al Loving\, Josh MacPhee\, Native Art Department International\, Michele Oka Doner\, Yoko Ono\, Kameelah Janan Rasheed\, Martha Rosler\, Buster Simpson\, Gregory Sholette\, Leni Sinclair\, Stephanie Syjuco\, Graem Whyte\, and Zafos Xagoraris. \n\nCurated by Srimoyee Mitra.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:China’s Pompeii: Julu\, a Northern Song Ceramic Legacy
DESCRIPTION:According to historical records\, in 1108 A.D. the region of Julu Xian and surrounding areas in southern Hebei Province were inundated when the Yellow River burst its banks. Like Pompeii and Herculaneum in Europe\, buried in 79 A.D. by volcanic ash after the eruption of Mount Vesuvius\, the story of daily life in this ordinary Song marketplace was instantaneously preserved in the silt of the Yellow River for more than 800 years. Dr. Margaret Carney will discuss Cizhou ware ceramics discovered in the Song dynasty Julu marketplace\, offering a window into the food\, dining\, and daily life of the Northern Song. \n\nMargaret Carney is a ceramic historian with PhD and Master’s degrees in Asian art history\, and a BA in anthropology/archaeology. Dr. Carney is a Fellow of the American Ceramic Society and an elected member of the International Academy of Ceramics in Switzerland. Grants received include Senior Fellow at the Smithsonian Institution’s National Museum of American Art and the Renwick Gallery.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:HET Brown Bag Seminar | Detecting Dark Matter from Supernovae
DESCRIPTION:The central region of Supernovae are one of the hottest and densest regions in the Universe. Due to the high temperatures\, particles with sub-GeV masses can be copiously produced if they have non-negligible couplings to the Standard Model. If dark matter has sub-GeV mass it will be produced in the hot Supernovae core and it will have sufficiently large momenta to be detectable in direct detection experiments. In this talk I discuss the sensitivity of current and future Xenon based direct detection experiments to a simplified model of dark matter which interacts with the Standard Model via the dark photon portal.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:2018 Ta-You Wu Lecture in Physics | Topological Quantum Matter\, Entanglement\, and a \"Second Quantum Revolution\"
DESCRIPTION:While the laws of quantum mechanics have remained unchanged and have passed all tests for the last eighty-five years\, new discoveries about the exotic states that they allow\, “entanglement”\, and ideas from quantum information theory\, have greatly changed our perspective\, and some believe that a “second quantum revolution” is currently underway. The discovery of unexpected “topological states of matter”\, and their possible use for “topologically-protected quantum information processing” is one of the important themes of these developments\, and will be described.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:Lost in Translation: The Architecture and/of Chinese Edition
DESCRIPTION:Have you ever wondered how architecture sounds in Chinese? Or questioned if the language of architecture would sound any more esoteric if it were in Chinese? Does linguistic difference matter? What is lost and what is gained when designspeak traverses the Chinese-English divide? How does the medium of design discourse affect its content? Is graphic communication the great equalizer? Is architecture sinicizable? Do you doubt that these are answerable questions? Find out on October 3rd\, 5–7pm\, at the Taubman College Commons.\n\nIn 1922\, philosopher Ludwig Wittgenstein declared that “the limits of my language mean the limits of my world.\" With the globally-connected community at the University of Michigan in mind\, we invite you to an exploration of the cross-cultural academic expressive production that accompanies thinking and writing from a non-English background. Taking the University of Michigan as a case study\, we hope to engage questions of scholarship and public expression incubated in the globalized environment that is the contemporary American university. Rather than focusing on the mechanics of English as a Second Language or as a lingua franca\, we seek a discussion around scholarly expression in a multicultural\, globalized academia.\n\nPanelists:\nFU Liangyu\, Communications & Media Studies\nWANG Jieqiong\, Architecture & Urban Studies\nWilliam THOMSON\, Anthropology & Architecture\nZHANG Fang\, Fine Arts\, Design\, & Economics\n\nHors d'oeuvres to be served.\nAll are welcome!\nNo registration is required but please RSVP so we can provide enough food for everyone.\n\nThis event is organized by GRIN with generous support from Rackham and in partnership with Taubman College DEI.

Thousands of citizens have been injured\, hundreds have been illegally detained\, and tens of thousands have fled the country for Costa Rica or the United States. A new generation of Nicaraguan activists are leading this popular movement for justice. \n    \nA new generation of Nicaraguan activists are leading this popular movement for justice.

SUMMARY:Performance:Matt Andersen
DESCRIPTION:New Brunswick might not be the first place you would think to look for the blues\, but forget your presumptions! Matt Andersen won the Blues Foundation's International Blues Challenge in Memphis\, and his soulful voice is matched in intensity by his brittle\, captivating acoustic guitar style. Matt does what we guarantee is the greatest version of \"Ain't No Sunshine\" since the days of Bill Withers. He's opened for Little Feat\, Bo Diddley\, Randy Bachman\, and David \"Honeyboy\" Edwards in between about 250 annual headliner dates of his own all over Canada\, the U.S.\, and the UK. Matt's unique blues sound incorporates elements of rock and other roots traditions\, and pickers of any instrument are sure to learn a thing or two on the way to a great time. Tonight\, for the first time at The Ark\, Matt plays a solo show.
