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:Gifts of Art presents Mystery Train: Oil on Linen

SUMMARY:Exhibition:she was here\, once
DESCRIPTION:The mobility and displacement of the Black body\, from port to holding cell\, to ward and out\, is a history that is embedded in our communities socially\, culturally and geographically. Alluding to feelings of pain\, otherness\, power and triumph\, \"she was here\, once\" features work that illustrates a moment of remembrance and reflection on the women who have roamed these spaces before us.\n\nIn summer 2018\, artist Nastassja Swift organized a collaborative workshop and public performance in her home city of Richmond\, Virginia. Using a range of choreographed movement\, sound\, and solidarity\, eight Black women and girls\, wearing large needle felted wool masks\, traced the ancestral footprints of the arrival of the Black body in Richmond. The 3.5 mile walk began in Shockoe Bottom (the site of the importation of slaves into Richmond\, and one of the largest sources of slave trade in America) and concluded in the Jackson Ward neighborhood (one of the largest Black communities in Richmond).\n\nThe multi-layered piece has produced a short film\, mini documentary\, photography\, and performance masks\, on display in her solo exhibition\, \"she was here\, once\" in Lane Hall.\n\nLane Hall Gallery is open to the public weekdays from 8am - 4pm. Class visits are encouraged.\n\nAccessibility: Ramp and elevator access at the E. Washington Street entrance (by the loading dock). There are accessible restrooms on the south end of Lane Hall\, on each floor of the building. A gender neutral restroom is available on the first floor.\n\nContact Heidi Bennett\, IRWG Event Planner (heidiab@umich.edu) with questions about this exhibition.\n\nCosponsors: Department of Women's Studies\, Stamps School of Art & Design\, Department of English\, Art History\, Eisenberg Institute for Historical Studies\, Center for the Education of Women+

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:Paved with Good Intentions
DESCRIPTION:In keeping with artist David Opdyke’s previous work\, this site-specific installation serves as a critique of U.S. culture and politics. In an era of fake news and daily hyperbole\, Opdyke literally changes the picture by hand painting on 528 vintage postcards of well-known American landmarks and destinations. The postcards are assembled into a large mural--a vast gridded landscape beset by environmental chaos. Each card is placed to fit into the overall image\, and carefully modified with the gouache to show a realistically rendered piece of the overall turmoil.\n\nThe installation also features animated shorts and script-driven video\, which take place within the visual confines of one or more postcards. The animation is inspired\, in part\, by Terry Gilliam’s animation work on Monty Python’s \"Flying Circus\" and by the classical music sound effects in the Road Runner cartoons.\n\nAbout David Opdyke:\nDavid Opdyke is a draughtsman\, sculptor\, and animator known for his trenchant political send-ups of American culture. Born in Schenectady\, NY in 1969\, he graduated from the University of Cincinnati with a degree in painting and sculpture. His work is informed by the massive industrial and corporate restructuring he witnessed growing up\, namely the abandonment of the city center by manufacturing giants General Electric and ALCO. As GE shifted resources to neighboring Niskayuna\, the disparities became hard for Opdyke to ignore. Massive\, decaying factories\, an empty interstate loop\, and unemployment were downtown\; new streets\, expensive homes\, sushi and shopping malls were in the suburbs.\n\nFor 20 years Opdyke worked as a scenic painter and architectural model-maker. Ranging from intricate miniature constructions to room-sized installations\, his artwork explores globalization\, consumerism\, and civilization’s abusive relationship with the environment.\n\nThis project is supported by a grant from the Efroymson Family Fund.

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:Marisa Morán Jahn: The Mighty and the Mythic
DESCRIPTION:Marisa Morán Jahn: The Mighty and the Mythic\nJanuary 24\, 2019 – March 2\, 2019\n\nStamps Gallery is proud to present The Mighty and the Mythic\, a solo exhibition of work by renowned social practice artist Marisa Morán Jahn. For the first time\, The Mighty and the Mythic brings together three key projects — CareForce (2012– ongoing)\, Bibliobandido (2010–ongoing)\, and MIRROR | MASK (2017–ongoing) — that highlight her deep and meaningful collaborations with low-wage immigrants\, caregivers\, and youth. Jahn describes her use of play and humor as essential tools that enable her and her collaborators to portray their lives with dignity\, critique power\, and build momentum within their community. Jahn’s practice is deeply informed by her own experiences growing up as a second-generation immigrant of Chinese and Ecuadorian heritage. For Jahn home was not a fixed place but an adaptation itself. Her varied vocational past as a schoolteacher\, caretaker\, woodshop cleaner-upper\, lumber hauler\, community organizer\, and now university professor and mother informs the urgency in her work to find common ground between (her-)self and (an-)other\, through the concepts of care and empathy. Each of the works in this exhibition highlights her deep engagement with the stories of everyday people\, mundane routines\, and a desire to build an inclusive society. Marisa Morán Jahn: the Mighty and the Mythic celebrates and acknowledges the daily struggles and minor victories of the 99 percent that make up the spirit of our society in the twenty-first century.\n\nArtwork by Marisa Morán Jahn: The Driver (detail)\, from MIRROR | MASK series\, featuring Darlyne Komukama. 2017\, Uganda

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:Proof: The Ryoichi Excavations
DESCRIPTION:A narrative of Ryoichi's archaeological work \nThe story of Japanese archaeologist Ryoichi and evidence of his worldwide excavations are explored by Patrick Nagatani in this series of photographs. Nagatani presents a narrative of Ryoichi’s archaeological work\, supported by images of excavation sites\, unearthed artifacts\, and Ryoichi’s own journal pages. According to the photographs\, Ryoichi discovered evidence of an automobile culture buried at sites across several continents: Stonehenge\, the Grand Canyon\, and a necropolis in China. This provocative and playful series compels viewers to reflect on how photographs and institutions\, such as museums\, shape our knowledge of the past and present.\n\n

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:HET Brown Bag Seminars | Testing Models of Dark Matter and Modifications to Gravity using Local Milky Way Observables
DESCRIPTION:Galactic rotation curves are often considered the first robust evidence for the existence of dark matter. However\, even in the presence of a dark matter halo\, other galactic-scale observations\, such as the Baryonic Tully-Fisher Relation and the Radial Acceleration Relation\, remain challenging to explain. This has motivated various models of dark matter as well as long-distance\, infrared (IR) modifications to gravity as an alternative to the dark matter hypothesis. We present a framework to test a general class of such models using local Milky Way observables\, including the vertical acceleration field\, the rotation curve\, the baryonic surface density\, and the stellar disk profile. In this talk I will focus on models that predict scalar amplifications of gravity\, i.e.\, models that increase the magnitude but do not change the direction of the gravitational acceleration. MOdified Newtonian Dynamics (MOND) as well as superfluid dark matter are examples. We find that models of this type are in tension with observations of the Milky Way scale radius and bulge mass and that cold non-interacting dark matter provides a better fit to the data. We conclude that models that result in a MOND-like force struggle to simultaneously explain both the rotational velocity and vertical motion of nearby stars in the Milky Way. A future publication will extend this analysis to include other models such as Strongly Interacting Dark Matter (SIDM).

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Medieval Lunch. Blood Runs Through It: The Indeterminate World of Loyalty in Japan's Warrior Society
DESCRIPTION:How did fighting men\, high and low\, cope with the reality of uncertainty\, especially unpredictable human relations in the age of violence (14-16c)? By defining war beyond the battlefield to a more dynamic “war system\,” we can see how the human anatomy’s most vital liquid\, blood\, became implicated in reorganizing the social and military landscape of the late medieval archipelago. The evolving practice of “keppan\,” or “blood seal\,” applied near or on one’s signature at the end of a document\, promoted a sense of order for the warriors. The practice of keppan spread alongside the discourse of disembowelment\, as did the gendered meaning that blood was acquiring.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:Towards Transformative Change: Institutional Self-Assessment and Relationship Building Between U-M and MSIs
DESCRIPTION:Minority Serving Institutions have and continue to play an integral role in granting access\, building knowledge\, and empowering change that impacts both individuals and society. The Reverend Dr. Martin Luther King\, whose legacy we commemorate as a critical figure in the advancement of civil rights and social justice\, is an alumnus of Morehouse College—an MSI. Implicit in Dr. King’s push for righteousness\, peace\, and justice was an immense desire to transform how a nation and ultimately the world engaged with one another. It is in this spirit that we frame this forum and engagement with Minority Serving Institutions—from transactional to transformational/transformative change. Featured speakers will provide a broad overview of the MSI landscape\, share their experiences with developing relationships with MSIs\, and share information on how to do an institutional self-assessment before seeking to partner with MSIs. This session will serve as the first in a series of forums that foster discussion on the socio-historical and contemporary state of MSIs\, insights from U-M units with relationships with MSIs\, and practical information and resources for engaging MSIs.\nPre-registration is required at https://myumi.ch/JgPe8.\nDue to the expectedly low temperatures\, Towards Transformative Change: Institutional Self-assessment and Relationship Building Between U-M and MSIs\, scheduled for January 30 will be rescheduled for another date.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Universal Declaration of Human Rights: Linocuts by Meredith Stern
DESCRIPTION:On December 10\, 1948\, in the aftermath of the devastation of World War II\, the United Nations General Assembly adopted the Universal Declaration of Human Rights as a roadmap to guarantee the rights of every individual everywhere. The complete Declaration is comprised of a Preamble and 30 Articles. In honor of the 60th anniversary of this document\, we are exhibiting 14 Articles in the form of illustrated prints by Meredith Stern. These contemporary prints are intended both to make people aware of this rights roadmap and to show its urgent relevance in our contemporary political moment.\n\nMeredith Stern is an artist currently based in Providence\, RI\, and a member of the Justseeds Artists’ Cooperative\, a decentralized network of 30 artists committed to social\, environmental\, and political engagement. Stern created a total of 28 sets of these linocut prints in 2017\, of which one is held in the Joseph A. Labadie Collection in the Special Collections Research Center.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:CANCELED: Laser Wakefield Driven X-ray Sources in Canada: A Brilliant Future for Agriculture and Global Food Security
DESCRIPTION:Abstract: There is need for stand-alone systems for screening plants and seeds at production sites. I will discuss devel-opment of high throughput X-ray phase contrast plant imaging and screening using LWFA-based X-ray sources (30 keV-80 keV). This effort is an initiative led by the Global Institute for Food Security at the U of Saskatchewan to establish the correlation between the phenotypic expression of a plant and its adaptation to biotic and abiotic environmental stress. Intense hard X-ray beams (5-50 µJ/shot at 40 keV) are generated by maintaining the laser beam ultra-relativistic self-guiding over long gas jet (cm). I will describe experiments with our new laser facility (up to 7 J in 18 fs at 2.5Hz) and discuss empirical scaling laws correlating the X-ray photon number to the laser and gas jet parameters. High throughput X-ray phase contrast imaging and 3D tomography were realized with average X-ray power (40 keV) of 10 µW-50 µW. We demonstrated seeing very small transparent objects embedded in inhomogeneous and anisotropic thick environment (including soil). Our scaling indicates that with a 1 PW laser a 40 keV X-ray beam with a 1 mJ per shot can be produced and that 1 Gray/shot dose could be achieved in a bio-system.\n\nAbout the Speaker: Jean Claude Kieffer is Professor at INRS since 1990 and fellow of the Royal Society of Canada. He was Director of the INRS-EMT Center 2006 to 2011\, and was the Canada Research Chair (Tier I) in ultrafast photonics from 2002 to 2016. He established in 2002 the Advanced Laser Light Source (ALLS) facility in Varennes (Qc)\, a Canadian National infrastructure. He is currently a member of the board of the Canadian Synchrotron and Science & Technology senior advisor for laser and optics for the President (M. Alain Rousset) of the Aquitaine Region Council (France). He is Vice President of the board of the Aquitaine technology transfer platform Alphanov (France). His research interests include plasma physics\, ultrafast lasers\, high intensity laser-matter interaction\, particle acceleration and ultrafast x-ray sources and their societal applications. He manages the 600 TW short pulse laser (10J\, 18fs) facility at INRS in Varennes. He is exploring the propagation of intense lasers in air for i) energy and wave guiding for homeland security and ii) remote environmental monitoring. He is also developing intense X-ray sources for Global Food Security.\n\nThe seminar will be web-simulcast.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:Department of Computational Medicine & Bioinformatics Weekly Seminar
DESCRIPTION:Robert A. Coleman\, PhD (Asst. Prof.\, Department of Anatomy and Structural Biology in the Gruss-Lipper Biophotonics Center at the Albert Einstein College of Medicine) will present the following abstract:  Years of biochemical experiments have led to the identification of the eukaryotic transcription machinery and a static view of gene regulation.  However\, mechanisms controlling the dynamics of transcriptional regulation inside a crowded nucleus remains poorly understood.  Recent advances in single molecule imaging have begun to shine light on these mechanisms\, providing an unprecedented dynamic view of transcriptional regulation in live cells.  We and others have found that transcription factors form dynamic hubs of activity in select nuclear compartments.  I will discuss how formation of these hubs and recognition of genomic targets is regulated by interactions between transcription factors and the histone tails of chromatin.  Transcription factors cycle on and off of their chromatin targets within these hubs on the order of seconds that likely reflect dynamic rates of chromatin remodeling\, RNA Polymerase II convoy formation and transcriptional output of a gene.  These findings are put into context describing how expression of the p21 cell cycle arrest gene is dynamically regulated by the tumor suppressor p53 protein and chromatin remodelers.
