SUMMARY:Exhibition:Gifts of Art presents Image Vessels: Blown Glass
DESCRIPTION:Sculptor Herb Babcock creates both monumental and human-scale work using metal\, glass and stone. In the early years of the American Studio Glass Movement (1974-1984) Babcock’s sculptural and painterly expression utilized the vessel format. By layering color — both mass and line — between gathers of clear\, molten glass\, the full compositions are viewed through the vessel as three-dimensional. Babcock is Professor Emeritus\, College for Creative Studies. He was Section Chair of the Glass Department where he taught for 40 years. He lives in Ann Arbor and built a new studio near U-M north campus in 2016.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Gifts of Art presents Impressions in Pastel
DESCRIPTION:Sharon Will’s commitment to painting is to capture the simple\, everyday beauty around her in her native Michigan and beyond. She is passionate about painting plein air (outdoors) whenever possible\, as she feels the direct observation from life is the best teacher to truly see the subtleties of light and color in nature. Working on sanded paper\, her process begins with a pastel and alcohol/mineral spirits under-painting wash to establish value and color. Soft pastel is applied in layers\, often in contrasting color and temperatures for vibrancy. Over her 35-year career in painting\, Will has won numerous national awards. She also operates a custom framing business from her home/studio in Washington Township and teaches occasional workshops.

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well from its beginnings in the 4th century CE until its decline in the 12th-13th centuries CE\, when it was completely superseded by Arabic.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: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:Paul Rand: The Designer's Task
DESCRIPTION:Paul Rand's visionary conceptions of brand identity \nPaul Rand was a giant of American design\, whose influential career spanned the second half of the twentieth century. His visionary and pithy conceptions of corporate and non-profit brand identities—though often graphically minimal—embody the artist’s complex philosophy\, interest in modernist aesthetics\, and singular wit. This exhibition features posters\, book covers\, and packaging designs from Rand’s beginnings as a pro bono designer for arts and culture publications like Direction magazine to his decades of crafting trailblazing corporate design for companies such as IBM. Paul Rand: The Designer’s Task affords viewers the opportunity to explore the genre of graphic design within the context of the art museum and examine how Rand’s intellectual process and impact on visual culture developed over time.\n\n

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Tristin Lowe: Under the Influence
DESCRIPTION:A serene and surreal constellation \nTristin Lowe’s Under the Influence is a serene and surreal constellation of three interconnected works: Argonaut II\, an oversized reflective door that leads viewers into the installation\, Lunacy\, a twelve-and-half-foot-diameter facsimile of the moon\, and Visither I\, a blue neon-light sculpture resembling a nomadic visiting spaceship. Lunacy\, the central component of the installation\, is constructed of 490 square feet of white felt pieced together by hand and stretched around an inflatable sphere. The surface is branded with craters and other markers that meticulously render the moon’s topography.  The installation creates a visceral feeling of time having stopped\, as if the cosmos has magically been paused—a sensation that is both captivating and strange. The unlikely experience of encountering the moon at this scale deepens this bewilderment. Under the Influence is a hypnotic work with a conceptual openness that rebuffs obvious narrative or meaning. In the artist’s own words\, “there’s a bit of the supernatural or otherworldly at work.”\n\n

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Department Colloquium | What is space weather\, and why should you care?
DESCRIPTION:The continuous outflow of plasma from the Sun fills the heliosphere with tenuous gas of charged particles carrying the Solar magnetic field. Largely shielded by the internal geomagnetic field\, only a small fraction of the protons and electrons make it to the near-Earth space - but those that do\, have a strong impact on our electromagnetic and radiation environment. As the society increasingly relies on  space-based assets\, it has increasingly important to develop preditions of high-energy (keV to MeV) particle fluxes in the near-Earth space. This talk discusses the effects of Coronal Mass Ejections from the Sun as they reach the geospace: The bright auroral displays\, ground currents harmful to power networks and other infrastructure\, and the radiation belt electrons in regions where the navigation and communication satellites reside. Our methodologies include satellite observations of the Sun and the fields and plasmas in near-Earth space\, and large-scale numerical models to model the complex interactions between the solar wind and the geospace plasma environments.\n\n

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Department of Computational Medicine & Bioinformatics Weekly Seminar
DESCRIPTION:Talk Title:  Origins of DNA Methylation Abnormalities in Cancer\nAbstract:  Cancer arises as a consequence of cumulative disruptions to cellular growth control with selection for those heritable changes that provide the greatest clonal advantage.  These traits can be acquired and stably maintained by either genetic or epigenetic means.  It is now clear that the cancer genome and epigenome influence each other in multiple ways.  For example\, mutation of the IDH1 gene results in the accumulation of a novel oncometabolite\, 2-hydroxyglutarate\, which is associated with an extensive CpG island methylator phenotype (CIMP) in glioblastoma and acute myeloid leukemia.  As part of the Cancer Genome Atlas (TCGA) project\, we performed an analysis of DNA methylation alterations in more than 10\,000 primary human cancer specimens spanning 33 cancer types.  We found that predisposition to DNA methylation gains (hypermethylation) was linked primarily to polycomb repressive complex occupancy in precursor tissues\, consistent with an epigenetic block to cellular differentiation as an early or even initiating event in carcinogenesis.  On the other hand\, widespread loss of DNA methylation (hypomethylation) is linked to replication-associated progressive erosion of DNA methylation at late-replicating\, lamina-associated domains in the genome located at the nuclear periphery.  We show that this phenomenon can be used to develop a molecular mitotic clock.  Disruption of epigenomic control is pervasive in malignancy\, with extensive phenotypic consequences\, and should thus be considered an enabling characteristic of cancer cells\, akin to genome instability and mutation.
