SUMMARY:Exhibition:Hineinu – Here We Are: An LGBTQ+ Jewish Photovoice Exhibit
DESCRIPTION:A same-sex Jewish marriage contract (Ketubah). A sign for gender inclusive bathrooms in a Jewish Community Center. A Christmas tree adorned with rainbow-colored ornaments and a Star of David topper. These are three of the 21 photos-with-narratives that constitute “Hineinu – Here We Are: An LGBTQ+ Jewish Photovoice Exhibit.” Combined with rich\, thought-provoking text\, these photos give insight into the varied experiences of local community members who are both Jewish and queer.\n\n“Photovoice” is the process of putting cameras in the hands of traditionally “voiceless” or marginalized community members to allow them to record\, reflect on\, and share their community’s strengths and concerns. Photovoice participants have the opportunity to capture their current experiences through pictures\, with the goal of sparking dialogue and action related to the themes depicted in the photos.\n\nAs you view this Photovoice exhibit\, we hope that you will consider what it means to be inclusive and welcoming\, and that you will continue to develop an awareness of the diversity of other people’s experiences both within and outside of the Jewish and LGBTQ+ communities.

Michael Nashef\, who spent half his life in war-torn Lebanon\, has created a series of innovative vessels and brooches. Other artists included in this exhibit are Kim Cridler\, Roger Smith\, Renee Zettle-Sterling and Ruth Taubman\, whose unmatched exuberance of color and 36 years of work and business innovation\, place her jewelry firmly on the national stage.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Organic Fiction: Acrylic on Canvas
DESCRIPTION:Hava Gurevich’s colorful abstractions feature botanical\, aquatic and microscopic motifs as she explores repeating patterns in nature. Blending images from the real world and her imagination\, Organic Fiction celebrates nature in all its beauty\, chaos and complexity. Hava Gurevich received a BFA in photography from U-M and an MFA in painting from Illinois State University. Her creative process begins with photographs and sketches of details in nature\, such as tree branches\, ice patterns\, twisted vines\, and delicate spring blossoms. These drawings contribute to her personal vocabulary of shapes and gestures\, and she often digitally combines them with older paintings to become starting points of new works.

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. He received the Pushcart Prize for “The Crash” in 1977 and an award in literature from the American Academy and Institute of Arts and Letters for On The Bridge (1986). 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. Earlier this year\, Ghost Pony Press released Cope’s eighth poetry collection: The Invisible Keys: New and Selected Poems.\n\nOn view during Special Collections Research Center hours: Monday-Friday\, 8:30 a.m. to 5:00 p.m.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Art Exhibit: Nancy Blum\, RC Class of '85
DESCRIPTION:RC alumna '85 Nancy Blum returns to East Quad to exhibit her drawings of flowers and to deliver the 10/19 Robertson Lecture on her public art installations. \n\nExcerpted from her artist statement:\nMy large‐scale works on paper\, rendered in ink\, colored pencil\, gouache and graphite\, portray a fantastic realm in which flowers own the space. I use a variety of 16th and 17th-century botanical images\, from Chinese plum blossoms to German botanicals\, as starting points for each drawing. Rather than alluding to an actual landscape\, I instead combine species of plants in the same drawing that would not customarily exist together in nature. Obsessive handwork creates intricate layers of visual information to be discovered over time and\, in this way\, the works become a seductive meditation for the viewer.\n\nI use botanical motifs to create images that are universally associated with growth and continuity. My deeper intent is to conjure the ‘flower’ as an active\, forceful agent\, subverting a culturally conditioned point of view that often deems the ephemeral and the organic as less powerful and of limited value. My ‘wonderland’ presents a view of life that pulses with expansive fecundity\; hopefully\, it also propels comprehension of the connectedness of all beings within the limitless energy operating throughout this world.\n\nWhen making art for public spaces\, I strive to invest these commissions with similar content\, while bringing beauty and a high level of craft to a particular environment. As I conceive and develop each piece\, I respond to the specifics of the surrounding architecture\, ecosystem\, and community in an effort to compellingly meet the needs of the site. My studio practice\, in turn\, is invigorated by opportunities to design work in relationship to an existing framework\, and the special demands and responsibilities this process entails.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Social\, Behavioral & Experimental Economics (SBEE): The Role of Social Interdependence in Children's Cooperative Decision-Making
DESCRIPTION:Abstract:\n\nCooperation enables people to reach outcomes that no individual could achieve alone. However\, cooperation is inherently risky since by participating we make ourselves dependent on the cooperative acts of others which may or may not occur. The last decades have seen a surge of investigations into the psychological mechanisms that help people overcome these risks. A central proposition that has arisen from this research is that social interdependence may be an important evolutionary and proximate source of expectations and motivations that contribute to human cooperative success (Robert\, 2005\; Tomasello et al.\, 2012\; Sterelny\, 2012). In this talk\, I will present research that addresses this issue from a developmental perspective by examining the role of social interdependence in children’s cooperative decision making. The results suggest that by at least age 7 children hold the expectation that interactions marked by social interdependence will be mutually beneficial which enables them coordinate their decisions with one another even without communicating. A second study with German and Kenyan 5- to 6-year-olds using a cooperative version of the famous marshmallow task indicates that social interdependence facilitates children’s motivation to invest effort in cooperative activities. Together\, these findings provide developmental and cross-cultural evidence for the importance of social interdependence in shaping human cooperative psychology.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:Idols and Figural Images in Islam: a Brief Dive into a Perennial Debate
DESCRIPTION:In this presentation Prof. Christiane Gruber aims to explore some of the questions and debates concerning idolatry and figural representation from the beginning of Islam until today. It will focus in particular on the specific terminology used in the Qur’an and Hadith—in particular the terms tamathil (figural likenesses)\, asnam (idols)\, and ansab (sacred stones or betyls)—in order to distinguish the semantic and conceptual categories that were used by Muslim writers to classify various forms of art-making along with their associated practices. Such terms were further finessed within historical and jurisprudential writings\, in which the Solomonic\, Abrahamic\, and Mosaic paradigms concerning statuary and idols served to both legitimize figural statuary while simultaneously castigating three-dimensional and even pendant imagery as potentially subject to devotional worship. In the majority of texts\, images were not understood as prohibited per se. Rather\, their modalities of display and use proved of paramount significance within the perennial debates concerned with image-making\, as is the case in all global religious cultures. Skirting the “broad swath” method\, this talk thus aims to pinpoint some the finer issues raised by the textual corpus as it intersects with artworks and paintings in order to demonstrate that practices of figural representation in Islamic traditions most often were (and still are) guided by cultural and political expediency rather than religious or legal principle.\n\nChristiane Gruber is Professor of Islamic Art and Associate Chair in the History of Art Department at the University of Michigan\, Ann Arbor. Her research interests span medieval Islamic art to contemporary visual culture. She has authored two books on Islamic texts and images of the Prophet Muhammad’s ascension and has edited about a dozen volumes on Islamic book arts\, ascension texts and images\, and visual and material culture. Her third book\, entitled The Praiseworthy One: The Prophet Muhammad in Islamic Texts and Images\, will appear in print in January 2019.

SUMMARY:Other:Moving beyond Methionine Synthase: New Insights into Cobalamin-Dependent Methyltransferase Reactions
DESCRIPTION:                                   Biological methylation underpins myriad cellular processes through the modification of proteins\, lipids\, nucleic acids\, heavy metals\, and a variety of small organic molecules. In the vast majority of these reactions\, the appended methyl group derives from S-adenosylmethionine (SAM) and is attached most often to nitrogen and oxygen nucleophiles through a polar SN2 mechanism\, although carbon\, sulfur\, and a variety of other nucleophilic atoms also receive SAM-derived methyl groups. Recently\, it has become apparent that SAM is used to methylate non-reactive carbon and phosphorus atoms by mechanisms involving radical intermediates. To date\, these reactions are catalyzed exclusively by radical SAM enzymes\, a superfamily of enzymes that use an iron-sulfur (Fe-S) cluster to catalyze a reductive cleavage of SAM to methionine and the potent oxidant 5’-deoxyadenosin 5’-radical (5’-dA•). There are at least five subclasses of radical SAM methylases. Class B methylases represent the largest subclass\, and use cobalamin to methylate both sp2- and sp3-hybridized carbon centers or phosphinate phosphorus centers during the biosynthesis of numerous biomolecules\, including natural products with antibiotic and anticancer activities. This lecture will focus on two Class B radical SAM methylases involved in the biosynthesis of antibacterial agents. Fom3\, which performs a key step in the biosynthesis of the broad-spectrum antibiotic fosfomycin\, catalyzes the methylation of the sp3-hybridized C2’’ carbon of cytidylyl-2-hydroxyethylphosphonate to yield cytidylyl-2-hydroxypropylphosphonate. By contrast\, TsrM catalyzes the first committed step in the biosynthesis of the quinaldic acid moiety of the thiopeptide antibiotic thiostrepton\, which is the methylation of the sp2-hybridized C2 carbon of the indole ring of L-tryptophan. As will be discussed\, while both Fom3 and TsrM are cobalamin-dependent radical SAM methylases\, they use two distinctly different strategies to catalyze their reactions.                                                                                                                                                             \n                       \n                                                \n                       \n                                                \n                       \n                                                \n                       \n                                                \n                       \n                                                \n                       \n                                                \n                       \n                        \nSquire Booker (The Pennsylvania State University)

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:Annual Copernicus Lecture. Contemporary Poland Fighting for Democracy
DESCRIPTION:In the 2018 Copernicus Lecture\, Barbara Nowacka will discuss the ongoing challenges to democracy in Poland and Polish civil society’s resistance to them. \n\nBarbara Nowacka is a feminist\, politician\, and progressive activist. She is chancellor of the Polish-Japanese Academy of Information Technology in Warsaw\, holds an MBA\, and is an IT specialist by education. Nowacka is a member of the Women’s Congress National Council and chair of the progressive association “Initiative Poland.” She is also co-founder and deputy chair of the Izabela Jaruga-Nowacka Foundation\, an organization which aims to promote equality\, social justice\, and social inclusion. Nowacka headed the election committee for the “United Left” coalition during the 2015 Polish parliamentary election\, and from 2015-17 she was a co-chair of the “Twój Ruch” political party. In 2016 and 2017 she organized and chaired the “Save Women” initiative\, a civil bill which aimed to liberalize abortion laws in Poland. In October 2016\, in response to an attempt by the political right to implement a total ban on abortion\, Nowacka became a leading figure in the “Czarny Protest” action\, a massive nationwide demonstration which ultimately succeeded in forcing the political right to back down. For her role in “Czarny Protest\,” Nowacka was ranked one of the Top 100 Global Thinkers of 2016 by Foreign Policy magazine. \n    \nIf you are a person with a disability who requires an accommodation to attend this event\, please reach out to weisercenter@umich.edu at least 2 weeks in advance of this event.
