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. The face of each one-of-a-kind work of art expresses happiness\, surprise\, mischief\, or a free spirit. 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: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:Written Culture of Christian Egypt: Coptic Manuscripts from the University of Michigan Collection
DESCRIPTION:The dry climate of the Egyptian desert offers an ideal environment for the preservation of ancient artifacts. As the sands of Egypt has preserved also numerous Coptic manuscripts\, the transmission of the literary heritage of Egyptian Christians can be documented quite well from its beginnings in the 4th century CE until its decline in the 12th-13th centuries CE\, when it was completely superseded by Arabic. This exhibit aims to show some of the hallmarks of Coptic literature using manuscripts kept in the Special Collections Research Center of the University of Michigan Library. Topics explored include the main Coptic dialects\; bilingualism in Egypt\; books read by the Egyptian monks\; and the works of Shenoute the Great\, the most important author of Coptic literature.\n\nThis exhibit is curated by Dr. Frank Feder and Dr. Alin Suciu from the Göttingen Academy of Sciences and Humanities. The exhibit and related programming are offered with support from the Department of Middle East Studies and the Kelsey Museum of Archaeology.\n\nJoin us for an opening lecture and reception at 4:30 p.m. on November 12 in the Hatcher Library Gallery.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Deluge
DESCRIPTION:Five Channel Video Installation\n13 Minutes\, 27 Seconds.\n\nDeluge is a culmination of Mendel’s ten years of work on the Drowning World project\, shooting video and stills in thirteen different countries. It depicts a variety of individual stories\, positioned with a synchronous global narrative in a way that is both personally intimate and deeply political. In all his years of responding to floods and making many journeys he has shot a vast archive of video footage\, which is fully activated in this presentation for the first time.\n\nAbout Gideon Mendel and his Drowning World project:\nGideon Mendel came of age as a photographer in South Africa in the 1980’s and identified strongly as a ‘struggle photographer’. This marked him and his subsequent career has been notable for his engagement with three of the crucial political and social issues that have faced his generation. These are the struggle against apartheid\, HIV/AIDS in Africa and Climate Change.\n\nA leading contemporary photographer\, Gideon Mendel's intimate style of image making and long-term commitment to projects has earned him international recognition and many awards. He was shortlisted for the Prix Pictet Prize 2015 and recently has won both the inaugural Jackson Pollock Prize for Creativity and the Greenpeace Photo Award 2016.\n\nHis on-going project ‘Drowning World\, explores the human dimension of climate change by focusing on floods across geographical and cultural boundaries. By highlighting the personal impact of flooding he evokes our vulnerability to global warming questioning our sense of stability in the world.\n\nThe work began in 2007\, when Mendel photographed floods in the UK and in India within weeks of each other. He was deeply struck by the contrasting impact of these events\, and the shared experiences of those affected.\n\nSince then he has endeavoured to travel to flood zones around the world visiting Haiti (2008)\, Pakistan (2010)\, Australia (2011)\, Thailand (2011)\, Nigeria (2012)\, Germany (2013)\, The Philippines (2013)\, The UK (2014)\, India (2014)\, Brazil (2015)\, Bangladesh (2015)\, the USA (2015 and 2017) and France (2016 and 2018).\n\nAs the work progressed photographing floods became both a literal and allegorical means of documenting the tension between the personal and the global effects of climate change. Each location added has intensified the narrative impact of the endeavour.\n\nDrowning World now consists of four parallel and connected narrative elements: Submerged Portraits\, Flood Lines\, Watermarks\, and Deluge.

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: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. Bringing together a dazzling array of works made in Africa\, Europe\, and the United States from the nineteenth to twenty-first century\, the exhibition demonstrates the international scope and reach of art from Africa and the African diaspora. It also explores issues such as slavery\, colonization\, migration\, racism\, and identity at play in the objects and their histories. Highlights include paintings\, photographs\, sculpture\, and installations by Kudzanai Chiurai\, Omar Victor Diop\, Wangechi Mutu\, and Serge Alain Nitegeka. The exhibition will be accompanied by a fully-illustrated publication\, the tenth in the UMMA Books series.\n\nLead support for 'Beyond Borders: Global Africa' is provided by the University of Michigan Office of the Provost\, Michigan Medicine\, the National Endowment for the Arts\, and the University of Michigan Office of Research\, African Studies Center\, and Department of Afroamerican and African Studies. Additional generous support is provided by the University of Michigan CEW Frances and Sydney Lewis Visiting Leaders Fund and Susan Ullrich.

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:LRCCS Noon Lecture Series | Futures in the Past of Africa-China Engagement
DESCRIPTION:This talk will challenge the presentist time frame of much current scholarship on China and Africa. Popular discourse as well as scholarly research in this field has been reactive to the expansion of China’s economic and policy interests in Africa since 2006. This brings with it a dismissal or erasure of earlier periods of China-Africa engagement\, that are deemed less significant when measured against the scale and speed of today’s relationships. As a historian\, Professor Monson wishes to challenge this assumption as a backward projection of metrics that can underestimate\, in hindsight\, the historicity of China and Africa on their own terms. So that\, for example\, a tiny Chinese-built shoe factory on Zanzibar\, or a small-scale irrigated rice farm in the Gambia\, could have an amplified role and meaning in its own time. The Chinese role model offered an alternative imagining for an African future\, one that whether embraced or rejected made a difference on the global stage. Africa and Africans made a difference domestically for China\, too\, through a range of solidarities expressed through literature\, drama\, film and in person as delegations of youth\, women\, athletes and journalists traveled abroad. \n    \nJamie Monson is Director of the African Studies Center and Professor of History at Michigan State University. Her background is deeply rooted in East African environmental history and the relationship between development\, resource use and landscape change in Africa. A recognized researcher and scholar\, Professor Monson's efforts have established her as a pioneer in China-Africa development studies. Her book\, \"Africa’s Freedom Railway: How a Chinese Development Project Changed Lives and Livelihoods in Tanzania\,\" explores the TAZARA railway\, which was built with Chinese development aid. Her most recent project is a book and documentary film based on life histories of TAZARA railway workers in Tanzania\, Zambia and China. Monson teaches courses on African environmental history\, history of science and technology in Africa\, and has led workshops on ethics of community engagement.\n\nCo-sponsored by the African Studies Center\, University of Michigan.\n\nIf you are a person with a disability who requires an accommodation to attend this event\, please reach out to us at least 2 weeks in advance of this event. Please be aware that advance notice is necessary as some accommodations may require more time for the university to arrange. Email us at chinese.studies@umich.edu.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:Norman Eisen reads and reflects on his new book: The Last Palace: Turbulent Century in Five Lives and One Legendary House
DESCRIPTION:About The Last Palace \nA sweeping yet intimate narrative about the last hundred years of turbulent European history\, as seen through one of Mitteleuropa’s greatest houses—and the lives of its occupants. When Norman Eisen moved into the US ambassador’s residence in Prague\, returning to the land his mother had fled after the Holocaust\, he was startled to discover swastikas hidden beneath the furniture in his new home. These symbols of Nazi Germany were remnants of the residence’s forgotten history\, and evidence that we never live far from the past.\n \nFrom that discovery unspooled the twisting\, captivating tale of four of the remarkable people who had called this palace home. Their story is Europe’s\, and The Last Palace chronicles the upheavals that transformed the continent over the past century. There was the optimistic Jewish financial baron\, Otto Petschek\, who built the palace after World War I as a statement of his faith in democracy\, only to have that faith shattered\; Rudolf Toussaint\, the cultured\, compromised German general who occupied the palace during World War II\, ultimately putting his life at risk to save the house and Prague itself from destruction\; Laurence Steinhardt\, the first postwar US ambassador whose quixotic struggle to keep the palace out of Communist hands was paired with his pitched efforts to rescue the country from Soviet domination\; and Shirley Temple Black\, an eyewitness to the crushing of the 1968 Prague Spring by Soviet tanks\, who determined to return to Prague and help end totalitarianism—and did just that as US ambassador in 1989.\n \nWeaving in the life of Eisen’s own mother to demonstrate how those without power and privilege moved through history\, The Last Palace tells the dramatic and surprisingly cyclical tale of the triumph of liberal democracy.\n\nNorman Eisen is a senior fellow at Brookings and a CNN commentator and chairs the watchdog group CREW. He served as US ambassador to the Czech Republic from 2011 to 2014\, and as President Obama’s ethics czar from 2009 to 2011. His writing has appeared in the New York Times\, the Washington Post\, The Atlantic\, and many other publications. The Last Palace is his first book.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:LACS Lecture Series. Beyond Left and Right: Grassroots Social Movements and Nicaragua's Civic Insurrection
DESCRIPTION:This talk offers some starting points for understanding Nicaragua’s civic insurrection via an account of social movements that oppose the state’s proposal for an Interoceanic Grand Canal. The opposition has been represented in the now defunct National Dialogue with the state by the Civic Alliance for Justice and Democracy\, an amalgam of diverse interests from the private sector\, student movement\, grassroots social movements\, and civil society. Spanning the political spectrum\, these groups make for strange bedfellows\, giving the Alliance a certain ideological incoherence beyond the desire to see Ortega and Murillo step down\, a restoration of democratic institutions\, and an end to the violence. An examination of grassroots social movements\, however\, provides an often-overlooked entry point into the roots of the civic insurrection. These movements illustrate why traditional ideological and political divisions between the Latin American Left and Right have limited utility for parsing relationships among diverse opposition actors and the self-proclaimed socialist state. An analysis of the factors that drive grassroots resistance to Ortega and Murillo\, such as economic policy\, corruption\, growing authoritarianism\, state violence\, racism\, and land dispossession\, reveal a Sandinista state that no longer embraces Leftist politics and a country that has outgrown its old political categories. \n    \nJennifer Goett is Associate Professor of Comparative Cultures and Politics at James Madison College\, Michigan State University. She is a cultural anthropologist\, specializing in political and feminist anthropology. Her research interests include race\, gender and feminist theory\, social movements\, human rights\, violence and the state\, and critical security studies in Latin America. She has published work on indigenous and Afrodescendant social movements for multicultural rights in Central America\, particularly Nicaragua\, and on state sexual violence\, racialized policing\, and infrastructure megaprojects. Goett is the author of Black Autonomy: Race\, Gender\, and Afro-Nicaraguan Activism (Stanford University Press 2016). The book examines the gendered strategies that Afrodescendant Creole women and men use to assert autonomy over their bodies\, labor\, and spaces in the context of drug war militarization and state violence in postwar Nicaragua. Her articles have appeared in American Ethnologist\, Journal of Latin American and Caribbean Anthropology\, The North American Congress on Latin America (NACLA) News blog\, and other journals and edited volumes. For two decades\, she has engaged in activist work with indigenous and Afrodescendant communities in Nicaragua and Honduras\, focusing on collaborative research to secure collective rights to land and natural resources. \n\n---\nIf you are a person with a disability who requires an accommodation to attend this event\, please reach out to us at least 2 weeks in advance of this event.

SUMMARY:Performance:AMAS Poetry Reading: \"Diary of a Daughter in Diaspora\"
DESCRIPTION:Bayan Founas is an educator and youth mentor in Detroit. She graduated from the university of Michigan in 2014 with a Women's Studies degree and will receive her Master's Degree in Educational Leadership and Policy from the University of Michigan in 2019. Passionate about making educational reforms in predominately poor communities of color\, she created an art & poetry club for Detroit youth to creatively heal. Founas enjoys writing\, reading\, and performing spoken-word poetry.\n\nIn her first book\, Founas outlines her life experiences and views through poetry. As the daughter of Algerian immigrants\, she depicts the realities of growing up in America in the diaspora – leaving her between two foreign lands. She also provides a unique glimpse into the glories and traumas of educating black and brown youth in Detroit. This body of work is HER story as a first-generation Arab and Muslim woman growing up in America – a narrative that is rarely told from one’s own perspective.

SUMMARY:Presentation:Michigan Neuroimaging Initiative:  Characterizing the spectrum of task fMRI connectivity approaches
DESCRIPTION:Abstract:\nTask-based functional connectivity (FC) approaches have typically sought to characterize the modulation of connectivity by task condition (e.g. PPI\, beta-series correlation).  However\, other more “resting-state”-like approaches to task-based connectivity are gaining traction.  These techniques examine FC over the entire task session and either leave in (AS Greene et al\, Nat Comm 2018) or attempt to regress out (“background connectivity”\, DA Fair et al\, Neuroimage 2007) the effects of task stimuli.  Existing somewhere between task-modulated FC and resting-state FC\, what do these approaches have to offer our understanding of functional connectivity and -- more broadly -- cognition and disease?  In my talk\, I will:\n\noutline the spectrum of task-based connectivity approaches\, to get everyone on the same page identify the putative effects of leaving in or regressing out effects of task stimuli (and why this is a source of controversy) describe how these approaches are currently being used (in general\, in aging/dementia research\, and in our lab) ultimately stimulate a discussion of the research questions for which these techniques might be well-suited (or poorly-suited)\n\nIn sum\, the talk as designed is methods-focused and built on a foundation of the concepts underlying the different approaches\, but also tying in recent work actually using the approaches (including some of my work in Dr. Damoiseaux’s lab).  As an aside\, the Greene Nat Comm paper contains the data presented by Dustin Scheinost at UofM last April\, so attendees of that talk will already have some background knowledge for this talk.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Against the New Nativism
DESCRIPTION:The U.S. government is currently checking off items on the wish list of a new nativist movement--from an entry ban on people from majority-Muslim countries to mass arrests and deportations\, from major reductions in refugee admissions to new rules designed to restrict working people's access to legal status. These rapid changes to immigration policy reflect a long history of efforts\, in the United States and around the world\, to constrain the movement of people across borders. As elected officials and news outlets cite nativist \"think-tanks\" and proclaim an immigration \"crisis\,\" this teach-in is an opportunity to participate in a conversation about what is happening locally and globally and how people are organizing in response.\n\nSponsored by the Migration & Displacement Interdisciplinary Workshop\, Global Solidarity After Colonialism RIW\, and TriContinental Solidarity Network

SUMMARY:Performance:Guest Recital: TIGUE
DESCRIPTION:Tigue is a group of three percussionists with a fluid musical identity. The Brooklyn-based trio (Matt Evans\, Amy Garapic\, and Carson Moody) make their own kinetic and hypnotic blend of instrumental minimalism while opening up the possibilities of their instrumentation through commissioning and collaboration. Tigue’s debut album Peaks was released in 2015 with New Amsterdam Records with highlighted performances at the Ecstatic Music Festival\, Bric Celebrate Brooklyn! Festival\, and the Zemlika Festival in Durbe\, Latvia. Recent commissions and premieres have included works by Molly Herron\, Randy Gibson\, Jason Treuting\, Adrian Knight\, and Robert Honstein alongside collaborative ventures with Kid Millions and visual artist/sculptor Michael Mercil. These works have been presented in concert halls\, galleries\, black box theatres and universities throughout the country\, including EMPAC\, Roulette\, The deCordova Sculpture Park and Museum\, Noguchi Museum\, Yale School of Music\, and Princeton University. Praised for their focused and “high octane” performances (The New York Times)\, the Ohio-born band members have worked together since they were practically children.
