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.

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.

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.

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).

Using a multi-media approach to demonstrate respect\, comfort and awareness\, the\nexhibit offers suggestions for becoming disability allies and educators.\n\nIt has been twenty years since the signing of the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) of 1990 and almost forty years since the Rehabilitation Act of 1973. Both of these laws protect against discrimination of people with disabilities by requiring equal access to employment\, education\, goods and services.\n\nAmericans have progressed in their attitudes and behaviors toward people with disabilities\; however\, there remain questions and concerns about appropriate communication\, comfort level\, and inclusive practices.\n\nWhen it comes to interacting with individuals with disabilities\, people ask:\n\"What should I do?\"\, \"How should I respond?\"\, \"Is it okay to say that?\"\, \"How can I become an ally?\"\; Allies for Inclusion: The Ability Exhibit will attempt to answer some of these questions.\n\nStudents\, faculty and staff are encouraged to experience The Ability Exhibit when it visits the Institute for Social Research (426 Thompson St.) \n\nFebruary 27\, 9am-4pm\nFebruary 28\, 8:30am-4pm\n\nIf you require an accommodation to participate in this event or have any questions\, please contact Anna Massey at abeattie@umich.edu.

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/ UID:59301-14728298@events.umich.edu URL:https://events.umich.edu/event/59301 CLASS:PUBLIC STATUS:CONFIRMED CATEGORIES:AEM Featured,Archaeology,Classical Studies,Exhibition,Museum LOCATION:Kelsey Museum of Archaeology CONTACT: END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20190115T140953 DTSTART;TZID=America/Detroit:20190227T090000 DTEND;TZID=America/Detroit:20190227T170000 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.

His family settled in Grand Rapids\, Michigan after stays in both Japan and Iowa. After attending various universities around Michigan\, John took an education hiatus to work in a cannery in Alaska. It was there that he found his calling in the pages of American Craft while scouring the tables of free magazines at the Anchorage Public Library. He received his BFA (Furniture Design) from Northern Michigan University in 1996 and his MFA (Furniture Design) from Rhode Island School of Design in 2000. John teaches in the School of Art and Design at Eastern Michigan University. John has recently exhibited work at the Muskegon Museum of Art\, the Midland Center for the Arts\, the Grand Rapids Art Museum\, and the Marshall Fredericks Sculpture Museum. He lives in Ann Arbor and maintains a studio in his home.\n\n<<>><<>><<>> Householdments <<>><<>><<>><<>><<>>\nWhile I don’t literally remember my earliest childhood years in Japan where I was born\, I have over my lifetime\, stitched together memories based on home movies\, family photos\, and images from my imagination. I “remember” the aesthetics of the place - objects and environments carefully made in wood\, stone\, and steel. Without necessarily conscious of it at the time\, I was dimly aware of Japanese visual composition. Things around me held an inherent logic and beauty\, a perfection made possible by keen tools\, quality materials\, and proficient makers. This three-part integration was embedded early on and continues to affect my own ongoing pursuit in object making.\n\nWhile finding my way as a young maker\, I realized where I belonged mostly because of how various studios smelled. The ceramics studio was musty and dirty\, the metals studio was acrid and smoky\, but the wood studio had an earthy aroma. My kind of place. The tools immediately felt right as well. Chisels\, planes\, and knives when sharpened properly could manipulate the material in ways I never expected. While I was clearly not a natural talent\, I quickly realized that a little bit of tenacity goes a long way. I also realized that I loved the logic for how wood parts can fit together. To build a wooden object or a piece of furniture each part depends on the fit of others. I deeply appreciate this fitting togetherness – how doors fit\, how drawers fit\, how joints fit\, how hinges fit. It all makes sense\, and this sensibility carries through to what I’m doing today.\n\nWorking in wood typically requires a high degree of planning before actual construction\, and over time I realized I craved the ability to work with more spontaneity. The work in this show reflects my wish to keep the working process a bit more flexible and intuitive.\n\nWhen starting with a sketch that I believe has potential\, I now begin to build directly\, without drawings or maquettes. I’ll constantly assess what has been built and allow myself to alter it\, continue with it\, or get rid of it and start over. I’m more interested in seeing where this process takes me than I am in finishing something precisely as planned. This results in some playfulness and whimsy that I hope is reflected in this work.\n\nThe word Householdments is an old and obscure term without modern usage that refers to furniture or things we keep in our houses. It strikes me as an odd word but well fitted to describe the objects in this exhibit. The pieces in this show are a collection of my personal householdments.

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.” UID:60543-14908120@events.umich.edu URL:https://events.umich.edu/event/60543 CLASS:PUBLIC STATUS:CONFIRMED CATEGORIES:Free,Library LOCATION:Hatcher Graduate Library - Special Collections, 6th Floor CONTACT: END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20190214T094905 DTSTART;TZID=America/Detroit:20190227T103000 DTEND;TZID=America/Detroit:20190227T113000 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.

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.

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 UID:59587-14754488@events.umich.edu URL:https://events.umich.edu/event/59587 CLASS:PUBLIC STATUS:CONFIRMED CATEGORIES:Activism,Art,Exhibition,immigration LOCATION:Off Campus Location CONTACT: END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20190220T103930 DTSTART;TZID=America/Detroit:20190227T110000 DTEND;TZID=America/Detroit:20190227T130000 SUMMARY:Conference / Symposium:Narrating Black Girls' Lives DESCRIPTION:MONDAY\, FEBRUARY 25\n4:00 pm: \"A Serial Biography of the Wayward\" keynote lecture by Saidiya Hartman\, Columbia (1014 Tisch Hall)\n6:00 pm: \"she was here\, once\" by Nastassja Swift gallery opening\, Lane Hall \n\nTUESDAY\, FEBRUARY 26\n10:00 am: Girlhood\, Oral History and Life Narratives roundtable (1014 Tisch Hall)\n11:30 pm: Women\, Biography and Age as a Category of Analysis roundtable (1014 Tisch Hall)\n1:45 pm: Girlhood\, Representation and Culture (1014 Tisch Hall)\n3:00 pm: Black Girls\, State Violence and Political and Civic Participation (1014 Tisch Hall)\n\nWEDNESDAY\, FEBRUARY 27\n10:00 am: Artist's Workshop for Undergraduates with Nastassja Swift (2239 Lane Hall) UID:57338-14157749@events.umich.edu URL:https://events.umich.edu/event/57338 CLASS:PUBLIC STATUS:CONFIRMED CATEGORIES:African American,History,Women's Studies LOCATION:Lane Hall - 2239 CONTACT: END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20190116T161517 DTSTART;TZID=America/Detroit:20190227T110000 DTEND;TZID=America/Detroit:20190227T120000 SUMMARY:Recreational / Games:Schokoladenstunde DESCRIPTION:Schokoladenstunde will take place in the comfy seating area between the two computer classrooms in the Language Resource Center.

It was a period when the foundation of mainstream art\, mainly Socialist Realism\, had been fundamentally shaken\, as new art\, represented by the avant-garde movement\, emerged nationwide\, changing and reshaping the topography of contemporary Chinese art. China’s avant-garde movement in this decade will be discussed in the talk. As a participant and critic of the movement\, the speaker will examine the initiative\, the evolution\, and the eruption of China’s avant-garde from the late 1970s\, when Cultural Revolution ended\, to the year of 1989\, when the monumental exhibition China/Avant-Garde was held\, and the Tiananmen Incident occurred\, terminating the movement\n\nAbout the speaker:\n\nZhou Yan\, critic\, received his B.A. in philosophy\, Sun Yat-sen University\; M.A. in art history\, Central Academy of Fine Arts\, both in China\; Ph.D. in art history\, Ohio State University\, USA. He has co-authored A History of Chinese Contemporary Art: 1985-1986 (1991\, Chinese)\, authored Cultural Odyssey: Wenda Gu and His Art (2015\, English)\, written a series of critical articles on Chinese art and culture (in Chinese and English) and co-organized the exhibition China/Avant-Garde in Beijing (1989). He is currently an adjunct professor at Kenyon College\, Ohio\, teaching history of Chinese art. His book\, A History of Contemporary Chinese Art: 1949-Present\, will be published in 2019.

The Worlding of Eastern Europe: Architects from Socialist Countries in Cold War West Africa DESCRIPTION:This talk revisits one of the most under-researched topics in the history of 20th century modern architecture: African and Asian engagements of architects\, planners\, and construction companies from socialist countries. Upon their arrival to postcolonial Ghana and Nigeria\, architects from socialist Hungary\, Poland\, and Yugoslavia drew analogies between the historical experience of Eastern Europe and West Africa as underdeveloped\, colonized\, and peripheral. This talk will show how these analogies allowed them to draw upon specific design tools and procedures from Eastern European architectural culture—and how their work in West Africa testified to the limits of these correspondences. \n \nŁukasz Stanek is a visiting associate professor of architecture at U-M\, and senior lecturer at the Manchester School of Architecture\, the University of Manchester\, U.K. Stanek authored \"Henri Lefebvre on Space: Architecture\, Urban Research\, and the Production of Theory\" (2011) and edited Lefebvre’s book \"Toward an Architecture of Enjoyment\" (2014). He published on cold war mobilities of architecture between socialist countries\, West Africa\, and the Middle East\, which is the topic of his forthcoming book. Previously Stanek taught at ETH Zurich and Harvard University\, and received fellowships from the Center for Advanced Study in Visual Arts (Washington D. C.)\, among other institutions. \n\nIf you are a person with a disability who requires an accommodation to attend this event\, please reach out to crees@umich.edu at least 2 weeks in advance of this event.

These flavour models require the presence of Standard Model singlet scalars\, namely flavons\, which decay to charged leptons in a flavour-conserving or violating manner. In this talk\, I will present the constraints on the model parameters of an A4 leptonic flavour model using a synergy of g-2\, charged lepton flavour conversion and collider data. The most powerful constraints derive from the MEG collaboration's result and the reinterpretation of an 8 TeV ATLAS search for anomalous productions of multi-leptonic final states.

Fields such as plasma processing\, plasma medicine and plasma assisted combustion are rapidly progressing due to new sources\, diagnostics and modeling techniques. Meanwhile\, our understanding of lightning physics is challenged by transient luminous events (elves\, halos\, sprites\, jets and gigantic jets) above thunderstorms\, and by high energy processes related to active thunderstorms such as terrestrial gamma-ray flashes and signatures of nuclear reactions in our atmosphere. I will explain the common ground of these natural and technical phenomena\, and discuss discharge formation\, from inception through the streamer discharge evolution to leaders and sparks. Key features of these dynamics are the extreme tails of the electron energy distribution in certain discharge stages\, up to electron runaway from eV energies to tens of MeV in thunderstorms.\n\nAbout the Speaker: Ute Ebert studied physics at the University of Heidelberg\, Germany\, and at the Hebrew University in Jerusalem\, Israel\, and she defended her PhD on the renormalization group analysis of long polymer chains at the University of Essen\, Germany\, in 1994. As a postdoc at the University of Leiden\, The Netherlands\, she switched to nonlinear dynamics and pattern formation\, in particular\, in application to streamer ionization fronts. In 1998 she gained a staff position at the Netherlands’ national research Centre for Mathematics and Computer Science (CWI) in Amsterdam. Since 2002\, she leads the research group “Multiscale Dynamics” at CWI\, and she is a full professor of physics at Eindhoven University of Technology (TU/e). In this double role\, she has built up a wide collaboration network with numerous projects together with plasma physics\, high voltage engineering and mechanical engineering at TU/e\, with physicists at the Dutch radio telescope LOFAR and with a European and international network for thunderstorm observations from space (in particular\, through the ASIM mission) and from the ground.\n\nThe seminar will be web-simulcast.

Typically\, this latent representation is a byproduct on the way to a prediction\, but the latent representation itself can also be useful\, particularly to transfer information between related machine learning tasks. I will discuss two recent projects in which we have used latent representations to encode information about\, respectively\, genomics and proteomics. In the genomic setting\, we train a deep tensor factorization method\, called Avocado\, to impute missing epigenomic data sets. We then demonstrate that the latent genome representation is useful in several other predictive settings\, including predicting gene expression and chromatin features. In the proteomic setting\, a deep Siamese network called GLEAMS learns to embed tandem mass spectra in a latent space in such a way that spectra generated by the same peptide are close together. In subsequent exploration of that space\, we detect groups of unidentified\, proximal spectra representing the same peptide\, and we show how to use spectral communities to reveal misidentified spectra and to characterize frequently observed but consistently unidentified molecular species.

He has published and/or presented on contemporary Caribbean writers\, Sub-Saharan francophone literature\, African American popular music\, French chanson\, and francophone hip hop. Similarly\, his teaching interests\, while focused on black vernacular culture and France\, extend from the poetry of Negritude writers to postcolonial explorations of contemporary francophone writers and musicians.\n\nHis first book Black Soundscapes White Stages: The Meaning of Sound in the Francophone Black Atlantic (Johns Hopkins UP\, 2013) considers the torn aesthetic and ideological relationships between Antillean music and literature from the 1920s to 1960s to be a colonial struggle over the meaning of Caribbean vernacular culture. Informed by an interdisciplinary formation (Bachelor Degree in Music Performance\, PhD in French and Francophone Studies)\, Black Soundscapes White Stages relocates the marginalized voices of the black diaspora through the discursive matrix of French imperialism and the cultural history of the French West Indies. The book has enjoyed positive reviews in French Studies: A Quarterly Review 68.3 (summer 2014)\, Comparative Literature Studies 52.3 (2015)\, and Contemporary French Civilization (Spring 2015).\n\nProfessor Hill's current book project\, Black Static\, locates rage as an sonic/affective vibration routed through the circuits of African diasporic musical culture\, travel\, and communication. It focuses on a range of musicians and writers\, from Nina Simone and militant rap artist Casey to Frantz Fanon and Ta-Nehisi Coates. Professor Hill is also at the beginning stages a third book project: a critical biography of Léon Gontran-Damas. \n\n \nEducation\n Ph.D. French and Francophone Studies\, University of California\, Los Angeles\, 2007\n B.A. Music Performance (Percussion)\, University of Iowa\n M.A. French Literature\, University of Iowa\n \nDescription of Research\nSummary Statement of Research Interests\nResearch interests include: Francophone poetry and music.
