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.

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:Exhibition:Exhibition | Ancient Color
DESCRIPTION:The Roman world was a colorful place. Although we often associate the Romans with white marble statues\, these statues — as well as Roman homes\, clothing\, and art — were vibrant with color. This exhibition examines colors in the ancient Roman world\, how these colors were produced\, where they were found\, what the Romans thought about them\, and how we study them today. We hope that visitors will think about what different colors mean to them\, and how these meanings compare to the roles of colors in the ancient Roman world.\n\nCurators: Catherine Person and Caroline Roberts\n\nView the online exhibition: http://exhibitions.kelsey.lsa.umich.edu/ancient-color/

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:Class / Instruction:Accentuate the Positive
DESCRIPTION:A six-week journey into the science and benefits of Positive Psychology. Victor Frankl said\, “The events of our lives are not as important as the meaning we give them.” Did you know about the serious science demonstrating the benefits of positive feelings for your well-being\, your health\, and even your longevity?  Positivity is not a “feel good” or smiley-face subject.  Forget everything you know\, and embrace the tremendous power of positivity - cultivated ways of expressing things like love and gratitude that are proven to broaden us and build us up. Cameron Powell said\, “It’s the secret knowledge you keep buying books to discover.” \n\nWe’ll discuss several books and articles that give us insight into the science of positivity. Our main text will be Positivity by Barbara Fredrickson\, Kenan Distinguished Professor of Psychology at the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill\, a leading scholar within social psychology\, affective science\, and positive psychology. \n\nInstructor Mike Murray is a clinical psychologist and has taught many OLLI classes.  These sessions for those 50 and above will meet on Wednesdays from 10 a.m. to 12 p.m. from February 13 through March 20.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:What Are Little Books Made Of?
DESCRIPTION:The Special Collections Research Center is excited to display a variety of nineteenth and twentieth century children's books made of cloth and related materials.\n\nThe market for children’s books expanded over the course of the nineteenth century\, as childhood mortality rates dropped and literacy rates rose. British and American publishers sought to create “indestructible” books that would appeal to the parents and teachers of very young children. Linen and muslin proved to be practical and appealing materials for such books\, which were usually printed with bright colors and comparatively little text.\n\nCloth books remained popular for almost a century before the cloth rationing of World War II shifted production towards heavy-duty paper substitutes\, such as “linenette.”

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:ISR Hackerspace with SRC faculty Erin Ware
DESCRIPTION:Dr. Ware is a self-taught HPC user and excited to host a weekly hackerspace from February 13 to April 3\, 2019. Her training has been in genetic epidemiology\, public health\, and statistics using SAS (local)\, R (server)\, Linux (on FLUX\, MBNI\, and other personal servers)\, batch scripting (SGE\, PBS\, Slurm). Dr. Ware has taught SAS (data management and statistical modeling) and introductory statistics using R. She is experienced in teaching high performance computing to individuals with limited programming background. \n\nIn this hackerspace\, Dr. Ware is particularly interested in addressing issues of data manipulation in Linux\, efficient documentation and file naming structures\, data management (SAS/R)\, setting up an HPC connection\, WinSCP\, getting around a server using basic Linux\, genomic analysis\, and high-dimensional data analysis. Dr. Ware would like to learn about SFTP using Globus\, Python\, and more advanced batch scripting in Slurm. Dr. Ware hopes you will join her hackerspace this term.\n\nThe goal is to foster a diverse and inclusive hacking environment in which attendees can benefit from each other’s expertise. To participate\, hackers need to bring their own laptops and\, ideally\, have a chunk of code they are planning to work on unless they plan to assist and join others in their coding endeavors.

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 MorÃ¡n 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: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:Lecture / Discussion:DCMB Seminar on Wed 13 Feb  ||  Michael Feig\, PhD (Prof. of MSU)
DESCRIPTION:Abstract:  Biological macromolecules function in dense\, crowded cellular environments.  Early studies of crowding effects have emphasized volume exclusion effects\, but it is becoming clear that frequent non-specific interactions between proteins\, nucleic acids\, and metabolites may be the more important factor in modulating the structure and dynamics of biomolecules.  Computer simulation studies at different scales of a series of models ranging from concentrated homogeneous protein solutions to models of bacterial cytoplasms are presented to explore the effects of non-specific quinary protein-protein interactions on protein stability and dynamics.  One focus is on the formation of transient clusters that determine diffusive properties and lead to liquid-liquid phase transitions.  The computational results are related to existing experimental data and the challenges and opportunities to expand the current studies to whole-cell modeling in molecular detail are discussed.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Department Colloquium | Thermodynamic Limits far from Equilibrium
DESCRIPTION:Thermodynamics is a remarkably successful theoretical framework\, with wide ranging applications across the natural sciences.  Unfortunately\, thermodynamics is limited to equilibrium or near-equilibrium situations\, whereas most of the natural world\, especially life\, operates very far from thermodynamic equilibrium. Without a robust nonequilibrium thermodynamics\, we cannot address a whole host of pressing research questions regarding the energetic requirements to operate outside of equilibrium\, like the energetic cost to form a pattern\, replicate an organism\, or sense an environment\, to name a few.  Research in nonequilibrium statistical thermodynamics is beginning to shed light on these questions.  In this talk\, I will present two such recent predictions.  The first is a novel linear-response-like bound that quantifies how dissipation shapes fluctuations far from equilibrium.  Besides its intrinsic allure as a universal relation\, I will discuss how it can be used to probe the energetic efficiency of molecular motors\, offer energetic constraints on chemical clocks\, and bound the dissipation in complex materials\, both biological and synthetic\, allowing us to gain insight into the fundamental energetic requirements to operate out of thermodynamic equilibrium. The second is an extended second law of thermodynamics with information that quantifies the precise energetic costs to process information\, make a measurement\, and implement feedback.\n

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Minoli Perera\, Northwestern University - “African Ancestry Pharmaco(genomics) Omics.”
DESCRIPTION:In observance of Black History Month\, Precision Health at U-M is pleased to welcome Minoli\nPerera\, PharmD\, PhD\, an Associate Professor of Pharmacology at Northwestern University\, as a\nfeatured speaker in its Seminar Series. On February 13 at 4pm\, Perera will present on “African Ancestry Pharmacogenomics Omics.”\nInitially interested in researching the clinical translation of pharmacogenetic findings\, Perera realized that African Americans are often excluded from these studies. The predictive genomic biomarkers used to guide drug therapy are based on studies of populations of European descent\, so the findings are uninformative for other populations. “Practically\, this means we are using the wrong genetic information in African-Americans to guide their therapy\,” Perera states in a profile on Northwestern’s website. Perera\, who spoke at the Precision Medicine World Conference in Ann Arbor in June\, has been funded by both the National Heart\, Lung\, and Blood Institute and American Heart Association to investigate genetic variants associated with warfarin dose response. She has also received a $7.5 million Research Project Grant (R01) from the National Institute on Minority Health and Health Disparities (NIMHD) to investigate genetic variation in drug-metabolizing enzymes in African Americans. Perera is currently Principal Investigator for one of five Transdisciplinary Collaborative Centers funded through the NIMHD. Dubbed\nACCOuNT (African American pharmacogenomic Cardiovascular\nCONsorTium)\, it will work to accelerate the discovery and translation of pharmacogenomic findings in African-ancestry populations. “The work that we do is scientifically interesting and important\, but it also carries a social justice mission\,” says Perera in her profile. “I hope this work will become an avenue to bring more diversity into academia and science research in general.”

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Precision Health February Seminar
DESCRIPTION:In recognition of Black History Month\, Precision Health at the University of Michigan (U-M) invites you to attend a seminar\, Wednesday\, February 13\, to hear guest presenter Minoli Perera\, PharmD\, PhD\, Associate Professor of Pharmacology at Northwestern University\, speak on \"African Ancestry Omics.\"\n\nThe event\, free and open to the public\, will include a presentation with time allocated for discussion. Registration [https://www.eventbrite.com/e/u-m-precision-health-seminar-february-2019-tickets-54719867597] is requested by Monday\, February 11 (or will close when full).\n\nAbstract:\n\nRacial minorities have been consistently excluded from most genomic studies\, and their data compose only a small fraction of what is publicly available. These studies and data\, however\, are key to the translations and implementation of precision medicine. To address this growing health disparity in precision medicine\, we use not only genomics\, but also other high-complexity datasets (e.g.\, transcriptomics) to discover the genomic predictors of drug responses\, as well as the biological underpinnings that drive genetic associations. Our work finds important associations of African-American–specific SNPs in pharmacogenomics\, and also novel genes that contribute to drug response\, disease\, and adverse events. These types of studies shed light on the unique contributions the African-American genome can make to precision medicine and the critical need for greater diversity in genomic medicine.

SUMMARY:Performance:RESCHEDULED FOR FEB 10 -- The Painted Face: Artistry\, Design and Voice in Chinese Opera
DESCRIPTION:Beijing opera performer\, Li Yang\, who specializes in the jing role\, will bring to the stage a unique presentation of the visual power of face painting along with his skills in vocal performance.  One of the most intriguing figures in Chinese opera is the jing or painted face role—the character type for warriors\, generals\, bandits and gods whose brilliant face makeup reveals each individual’s emotions\, flaws\, and strengths. Join the U-M Lieberthal-Rogel Center for Chinese Studies\, The Confucius Institute\, and the International Institute to experience the full power of the jing role\, by witnessing the effect of this visual spectacle combined with vocal virtuosity.  A special raffle will be held for an audience member to be face painted by the expert. \n \nThe artist’s residency is part of a series of events during the Lunar New Year in February 2019 highlighting contemporary Chinese artists and coincides with the UMMA exhibition Wang Qingsong/Detroit/Beijing (February 2 - May 26\, 2019).\n\nSupported through the Lieberthal-Rogel Center for Chinese Studies\, The Confucius Institute\, and the University of Michigan Museum of Art.\n\nLead support for Wang Qingsong/Detroit/Beijing is provided by the E. Rhodes and Leona B. Carpenter Foundation\, the Confucius Institute at the University of Michigan\, the University of Michigan Lieberthal-Rogel Center for Chinese Studies\, and the Herbert W. and  Susan L. Johe Endowment.

SUMMARY:Performance:Mandolin Orange
DESCRIPTION:The 7 p.m. show is sold out but tickets are still available for the 9:30 show\n\nMandolin Orange’s music radiates a mysterious warmth —their songs feel like whispered secrets\, one hand cupped to your ear. Ashleigh Phillips of Independent Weekly wrote that they craft \"simple songs that go beyond chord progressions and vocal harmonies\, leading somehow toward something pure. Using acoustic and electric guitars\, mandolin and a hand-me-down fiddle\, Andrew Marlin and Emily Frantz allure with a heartworn sensibility.\" This North Carolina duo has shared stages with Rosanne Cash\, Chatham County Line\, the Steep Canyon Rangers and Abigail Washburn. Their original songs are drenched in a mastery of classic country\, blues\, and rock\, but they are both personal and contemporary. It takes genius to be simple\, and this young duo has that kind of genius. They come to Michigan with a new release\, \"Tides of a Teardrop\,\" which they call their most personal effort. Always simple and quiet\, the songs of Mandolin Orange are music to treasure.\n\nL.A. psychedellic band Mapache opens.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:Sephardi Perspectives on the Medieval Muslim World: Benjamin of Tudela and His \"Book of Travels\"
DESCRIPTION:This talk will offer a fresh look at the best-known Jewish traveler of the Middle Ages: Benjamin ben Jonah from the city of Tudela\, in modern Spain’s northeast. Focusing on selected passages from Benjamin’s twelfth-century Book of Travels\, Jacobs will address the following questions: what does it mean to be a Sephardi Jew during the time of the Crusades? How does a Jewish traveler from medieval Iberia describe the Middle East? What images does he paint of Iraq\, Iran\, and crusader-ruled Jerusalem? Does Benjamin share certain “Western” perceptions of Islam with his Christian contemporaries? How does he portray Jewish-Muslim and Jewish-Christian relations\, respectively? To what extent is his Book of Travels a reliable account of his personal observations on the road\, where does he take poetic license\, and why? Through the lens of Benjamin’s fascinating travel account\, the audience will learn about a pre-modern Jewish world spanning from Iberia to the Middle East and beyond.\n\nIf you have a disability that requires an accommodation\, contact the Judaic Studies office at judaicstudies@umich.edu or 734-763-9047.
