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
DESCRIPTION:Gregg Chadwick grew up with the rails of America in his blood. His grandfather Arthur Desch stoked coal in steam engines before becoming a train engineer on the Jersey Central Line. At family gatherings in Chadwick’s grandparent’s home\, his aunts and cousins played music to the rhythms of the trains outside. From Junior Parker\, Elvis Presley\, Bob Dylan and Johnny Cash\, to arts writers and directors Greil Marcus and Jim Jarmusch\, the enduring mythos of America and its legacy has been wrapped up in the blues notes of the song “Mystery Train”. Chadwick’s current series of paintings\, Mystery Train\, is steeped in the powerful echoes of those machine days.

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:Presentation:Clinical Science Brown Bag: Using Sequential Mixed Methods Research to Develop Research Partnerships: An Example from Urban Indian Mental Health
DESCRIPTION:Abstract: The Indian Health Service of the United States government oversees 34 Urban Indian Health Organizations\, charged with providing mental health services to American Indians living in major US cities. Starting in 2014\, University of Michigan researchers in the Department of Psychology began contacting these sites\, largely through cold calls\, to participate in brief surveys regarding their available mental health services. Using this initial contact as a springboard to develop a relationship\, a four-year project including multiple visits to several of these health centers was ultimately conducted. This presentation will discuss how a sequential mixed methods approach to research can be applied in the development of long-term research relationships while also improving the depth and quality of the research itself\, using this multi-year project in urban Indian health to illustrate these points.

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:Workshop / Seminar:Developing a Social Media Strategy for Your Professional Career
DESCRIPTION:Are you planning on going into the job market soon? Did you know 92% of companies (including colleges and universities) use or plan to use social media to recruit? Many graduate students have a love/hate relationship with social media. They know they “have to do it\,” that it’s the “right thing to do\,” but is it necessary in higher education? What if you are planning to go the faculty tenure route—is it really necessary? At this workshop you will learn how to think more strategically about your social media strategy and presence. More specifically\, you’ll decide what type of “professional persona” you are trying to portray and then you’ll learn some tactics and techniques for building your social media network. This workshop will focus on the following social media tools: LinkedIn\, Twitter\, WordPress\, Academica.edu\, Hoot-suite\, and If This Then That.\nPre-registration is required at https://myumi.ch/LEomk.

SUMMARY:Other:LOOK 101: Seeing Art in an Instagram World
DESCRIPTION:PREREGISTRATION IS REQUIRED. Register here: http://myumi.ch/J9DqN\n\nGeared toward undergraduate students and focusing on the current exhibitions at the Institute for the Humanities\, this contemporary series of discussions offers a fresh take on the basics of looking and evaluating art in the gallery and how it’s organized\, making the connection from the traditional “white cube gallery” to iGen visual worlds like Facebook and Instagram. Lunch will be served. Today: How to look at the art of David Opdyke with Institute for the Humanities curator Amanda Krugliak. Register here: http://myumi.ch/J9DqN\n\nAbout the exhibition: \n\nIn 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:Lecture / Discussion:Seminar: Regulation of gene expression by altered composition of chromatin remodeling complexes
DESCRIPTION:Abstract: \nChromatin remodeling plays a critical role in regulating all processes that require access to DNA. There are four families of chromatin remodelers\, defined by the ATPase subunit of the complex. Although each family is often treated as a singular entity\, in reality\, the composition of remodeling complexes can vary greatly based on the inclusion of different subunits. SWI/SNF is the chromatin remodeler that best exemplifies the idea of compositional heterogeneity. More than half of its 12-15 subunits can be filled by mutually exclusive proteins. Despite the many studies on the function of SWI/SNF\, considerably fewer have focused on regulation of assembly and composition of the complex. The goal of my lab is to understand how the composition of a chromatin remodeling complex is regulated\, and how altered chromatin remodeling disrupts normal chromatin state and contributes to disease. My work integrates quantitative genomics\, biochemistry\, and molecular biology to develop a mechanistic understanding of how changes to the composition of a chromatin remodeling complex affects its function. \n\nSpeaker:\nJesse Raab received his Ph.D. from The University of California Santa Cruz working with Dr. Rohinton Kamakaka to uncover the role of human tRNA genes as chromatin insulator elements. In 2012\, he joined the lab of Terry Magnuson to study how changes to the composition of chromatin remodeling complexes affect their function. He is now a research assistant professor in the Department of Genetics at the University of North Carolina\, Chapel Hill\, where he has continued his research to understand how disruption of chromatin remodeling complex composition contributes to disease.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:Gun violence in the United States: Competing frames and policy tensions
DESCRIPTION:Free and open to the public. This event will be livestreamed. Check event website just before the event for viewing details.\n\nJoin the conversation: #policytalks\n\nThis event is made possible in part through the generous support of the Gilbert S. Omenn and Martha A. Darling Health Policy Fund.\n\nAbout the event:\n\nGun violence represents a significant social problem in the United States. In a single week\, the U.S. experiences\, on average\, over 1\,200 gun-related incidents\, including accidents\, suicides\, homicides\, and mass shootings. Of all developed nations\, the U.S. has - by far - the highest rates of gun ownership and gun violence.\n\nMany competing lenses frame the primary causes or drivers of the unique and multi-faceted problem of gun violence in the U.S.\, lenses that invoke perspectives on crime\, race\, mental health\, immigration\, and other contentious issues. Moreover\, the topic of gun violence results in extremely heated\, bitter\, and politically-divisive policy debates. This will be a moderated discussion with a panel of experts who have competing views on how best to frame or define the problem of gun violence and priority policy solutions.\n\nPanelists:\n\nJane Coaston\, Senior politics reporter at VOX\n\nJonathan Metzl\, MD\, PhD\, Professor of Psychiatry and Sociology\, Director of the Center for Medicine\, Health and Society at Vanderbilt University\n\nRebecca Cunningham\, MD\, Professor of Emergency Medicine\, Director of Injury Prevention Center\, and Associate Vice President for Research-Health Sciences\, University of Michigan\n\nModerator:\n\nPaula Lantz\, PhD\, Professor of Public Policy\, Associate Dean for Academic Affairs\, Ford School of Public Policy\n\nFor more information\, visit http://myumi.ch/aKrYo.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:Handle with Care: Hazards and Wonders of Early Modern Greek Literature
DESCRIPTION:Three eighteenth-century texts will serve as points of reference in an attempt to map some of the issues involved in the study of early modern Greek literature. These texts come with a number of challenges – philological\, methodological\, hermeneutic – while also being fascinating literary artifacts. At the very least\, they require a kind of treatment that would do justice to the determined interplay of what this talk will identify as their key features: a creative engagement with classical forms and genres\; a programmatic interest in European paradigms\; and a firm grasp of the realities and exigencies of the Ottoman status quo.\n\nBio:\n\nNikos Panou is Assistant Professor of Comparative Literature and Peter V. Tsantes Endowed Professor in Hellenic Studies at Stony Brook University. He received his Ph.D. in Comparative Literature from Harvard University and has been a postdoctoral fellow at the Seeger Center for Hellenic Studies and the Society of Fellows in the Liberal Arts\, Princeton University. Before moving to Stony Brook he was a Visiting Assistant Professor of Comparative Literature at Brown University. His current research focuses on the ways power and authority were conceptualized and represented in pre-modern philosophical discourse\, with a particular emphasis on moral and political works written from the sixteenth to the eighteenth century. He has published on topics ranging from Byzantine historiography to seventeenth-century satire.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:Minds\, Markets\, and Machines: Capitalist Praxis and the Origin of Planetary Crisis
DESCRIPTION:The rise of capitalism after 1450 marked a turning point in the history of humanity’s relation with the rest of nature. It was greater than any watershed since the rise of agriculture and the first cities. And in relational terms\, it was greater than the rise of the steam engine. These historical questions have assumed new salience in an era of runaway global warming and the Anthropocene narrative\, which seeks to explain the origins and prime movers behind such deepening planetary instability. In this talk\, environmental historian Jason W. Moore explains why and how the early modern origins of capitalism – understood as a world-ecology of power\, capital\, and nature – have shaped the crises of the 21st century.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:CPPS Lecture and Exhibition Opening. 100 Years of Polish Independence: Zakopane 1918
DESCRIPTION:Zakopane is an extraordinary town. Located amidst the stunning beauty of the Tatra Mountains\, it is Poland’s best-known holiday resort. Tourism has been growing there since the 1870s\, when wealthy outsiders began building holiday homes to enjoy the town’s picturesque location. \n\nWith the outbreak of the First World War\, many Zakopane residents rushed off to fight\, but many others sought refuge in Zakopane to wait out the global conflict. The writer Stefan Żeromski became the informal leader of those who remained. As the war came to an end\, the Austro-Hungarian and German Empires collapsed\, joining the Russian Empire that had fallen a year earlier\, creating a confusing vacuum of authority. On October 31\, 1918\, a group of politicians\, intellectuals\, and local activists in Zakopane took the initiative to disarm the local Austrian military police\, and on November 1st they proclaimed the formation of a “National Council\,” under Żeromski’s leadership. Thus was born the “Republic of Zakopane.” \n\nAlthough Poles celebrate November 11\, 1918\, as the anniversary of independence\, in fact there were many such proclamations in various towns and cities during those tumultuous weeks\, each capturing a different vision of what this new country might become. The “Republic of Zakopane” may seem like an idiosyncratic curiosity\, but it exemplifies the rich diversity of attitudes\, dreams\, and hopes that blossomed in 1918. \n    \nMaciej Krupa is a journalist and mountain guide who lives and works in Zakopane\, Poland. An anthropologist and historian by training\, he is the co-founder of the local weekly newspaper\, \"Tygodnik Podhalanski\,\" and a former BBC World Service producer. Krupa has authored and co-authored several books and numerous publications on topics related to Zakopane and the Tatra Mountains. His most recent works in English include: \"The Tatras\,\" \"Zakopane\,\" \"Podhale\" (2018)\; \"The Outstanding Residents of the Zakopane Trail\" (2017)\; and \"Zakopane\, Past and Present\" (2004). \n\nThis lecture marks the opening “100 Years of Polish Independence: Zakopane 1918\,” an exhibition of photographs from the archives of the Tatra Museum in Zakopane\, Poland. The Copernicus Program in Polish Studies has curated the exhibit and organized public lectures in collaboration with the Tatra Museum\, the Adam Mickiewicz Institute in Warsaw\, and Culture.pl as part of POLSKA 100\, an international cultural program commemorating the centenary of Poland regaining Independence. It is financed by the Ministry of Culture and National Heritage of the Republic of Poland as part of the multi-year program NIEPODLEGŁA 2017-22. \n\nIf you are a person with a disability who requires an accommodation to attend this event\, please reach out to copernicus@umich.edu 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.
