SUMMARY:Exhibition:Gifts of presents Art\, Music & Autism: Jazz Musicians in Mixed Media by Juliette Hemingway
DESCRIPTION:In Juliette Hemingway’s work\, viewers can imagine the grumbling tones of a saxophone or the sharp lines of a trombone. The sound is inside the musicians. You may not know the details of their experience or understand it\, but it's visceral. That is what jazz is in Hemingway's work. It is the instinctual part of her life that she gives to viewers as a visual excerpt: a life that revolves around healing\, autism\, creativity and awareness. Jazz and the blue-hued musicians give you a sense of the deep-rooted experiences of her son and what it is to live with autism\, and for her\, straining to look into his secret world. Hemingway is based in Aurora\, Colorado.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:True to Life: Film Director Nancy Savoca’s Quest for Authenticity
DESCRIPTION:Filmmaker Nancy Savoca aims to be as authentic as possible.

This U-M student-curated exhibit is the result of a semester-long course devoted to her films and career.\n\nSavoca contributed her papers — spanning her career as a director\, producer\, and screenwriter — to the Screens Arts Mavericks & Makers collection at the U-M Library. Her archive represents nearly three decades of indie filmmaking\, and includes notes\, notebooks\, photos\, and script drafts.\n\nSee the symposium schedule for Character Driven: Exploring the Career and Archives of Nancy Savoca: https://www.lib.umich.edu/announcements/symposium-celebrates-filmmaker-nancy-savoca

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Blind House: Utopia and Dystopia in the Age of Radical Transparency
DESCRIPTION:\"Blind House: Utopia and Dystopia in the Age of Radical Transparency\,\" by collaborative artists Paloma Muñoz and Walter Martin\, is a razor-sharp work that brings into question our ideals of house and home\, privacy\, and safety.\n\nThe exhibition combines photographs the artists have envisioned of houses without windows as well an actual glass house planned for the center of the gallery\, revisiting the whole notion of a glass house as an example of sophistication\, luxury\, and modernism.\n\nIn a darkening an era of surveillance and the internet\, for Martin and Muñoz\,  \"Blind House\" serves as \"a metaphorical solution to the full on campaign against personal privacy.\" Read the artists' statement at http://myumi.ch/6wxbk

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:Conference / Symposium:Living a Digital Life: Objects\, Environments\, Power
DESCRIPTION:Everyone thinks they know what digital means. So pervasive are digital technologies in the 21st century that it is difficult to find critical distance from this immersive new world of ubiquitous connectivity\, social media feeds\, smartphones\, mobile apps\, responsive design\, algorithmic recommendation systems\, and voice-controlled home shopping assistants. While the question “what is the digital?” is compelling\, the more pressing question might be instead: what does it mean to be alive in the digital age?\n\nAcross campus\, this question will emerge in courses\, colloquia\, lectures\, and informal conversations among students\, faculty\, staff\, and peers. Critically engaging with the big issues\, urgent consequences\, and radical possibilities for grappling with the meaning of life in this era of digital ubiquity. Whether defined as “animated corporeal existence\,” “vitality\,” or “to continue\, to remain\,” we see a profound opportunity to approach the digital world through a spectrum of the meaning of life-ness - alive\, liveness\, animated\, lifelike\, life-adjacent\, consciousness\, awareness\, attention\, awoke.\n\n“Living a Digital Life” is the 2019 Michigan Meeting.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Things I Like Most About the Clements Library
DESCRIPTION:The Clements Library is a treasure house of American history.  During a 23-year career with the Clements\, Brian Dunnigan has served as curator of maps\, head of research and publications\, associate director\, and acting director.  Daily contact with the collections has inspired reflections on some of the things that the Clements does very well\, driving his exhibit themes around active collecting\, conservation\, solving mysteries\, and more. \n\nDunnigan’s selections include poignant manuscripts\, striking visual imagery and cartography\, and some of his favorite materials from the collections\, drawing especially from his expertise in the mapping of the Great Lakes. This valedictory exhibit in the Clements’s soaring Avenir Foundation Reading Room dwells on seven areas of commitment and illustrates the concepts with some of the Library's most evocative and handsome holdings.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:MORE Mentoring Plan Workshop
DESCRIPTION:This workshop helps to enhance the mentoring relationship between the student and research faculty mentor/advisor. During the workshop\, students and faculty will have the opportunity to develop a Mentoring Plan\, a two-way agreement about goals\, needs\, and expectations\; it is co-written by the student and research faculty mentor/advisor. It is an excellent way to establish and support mentor-mentee relationships.\nBecause this program aims to enhance the mentoring relationship\, mentors and students are expected to attend the workshop together. If a faculty member has attended a MORE workshop for faculty in the past\, and is familiar with the MORE mentoring plan template\, they may choose to attend the last portion of the workshop only (plan to arrive at 11:50 a.m.). Lunch is provided. This workshop has an optional informal meeting time to finish working on the mentoring plan from 12:30 to 1:00 p.m.\nPre-registration is required of both the faculty and student at myumi.ch/a0MbZ.

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:Cosmogonic Tattoos
DESCRIPTION:EXPANDING OUR UNDERSTANDING OF A MUSEUM AS A CULTURAL REPOSITORY\n \nIn celebration of the University of Michigan’s Bicentennial in 2017\, artist and distinguished U­–M art professor Jim Cogswell was invited to create a series of public window installations in response to the holdings of the University of Michigan Museum of Art and the Kelsey Museum of Archaeology. For this visionary project\, the artist adhered a procession of vivid images to the glass walls of the museums in a rhythmically evocative narrative\, based on reassembled fragments from a diverse range of artworks in both museums' permanent collections.  The juxtaposed images address our shared histories and experiences while connecting the viewer to the origins and meaning of objects and their power to shape knowledge\, memory\, and identity. By leveraging the buildings’ unique architecture\, the artist expands our understanding of a museum as a cultural repository and highlights the significant role of these institutions in the life of the campus community.  Cosmogonic Tattoos is on view at the Kelsey Museum of Archaeology through May 2\, 2018 and UMMA through June 2\, 2019.\n \n#CosmogonicTattoos\n\nLead support for Cosmogonic Tattoos is provided by the University of Michigan Office of the Provost. Additional support for the artist's project is provided by the University of Michigan Bicentennial Office and the Penny W. Stamps School of Art and Design.\n

SUMMARY:Exhibition:New at UMMA: Oshima Tsumugi Kimono
DESCRIPTION:Fashioned in the Amami islands of Japan\, Oshima Tsumugi silk has long been admired for its understated beauty\, incredible softness\, and comfortable year-round lightness. The rich fabric is created through a remarkable and  laborious process: from pattern design and cotton-thread binding\, to over 100 rounds of plant and mud dyeing and weaving. This series of steps may take up to one year. Despite the high production values and complexities\, Oshima Tsumugi kimono can be worn only for non-ceremonial occasions\, since woven fabric is considered to be a less elevated technique than paint-dyed fabric.\n \nThis special installation introduces UMMA audiences to one of the ten exceptional Oshima Tsumugi kimono recently donated to the Museum by Kazuko Miyake. Thanks to Mrs. Miyake and her older sister\, Shizuko Iwata\, who previously gifted her kimono and other formal garment collection\, UMMA holds more than 300 traditional Japanese ensembles.\n\nThis kimono was recently gifted to UMMA by Ms. Kazuko Miyake.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:The World to Come: Art in the Age of the Anthropocene
DESCRIPTION:EXPLORE SUBJECTS AND THEMES RELATED TO RAW MATERIALS\, DISASTERS\, CONSUMPTION\, LOSS\, AND JUSTICE\n \nThe World to Come: Art in the Age of the Anthropocene awakens us to the physical and social effects of the Anthropocene\, a much-debated term used to define a new geological epoch shaped by human activity. Structured around ecological issues\, the exhibition presents photography\, video\, and sculpture that address subjects and themes related to raw materials\, disasters\, consumption\, loss\, and justice. More than thirty-five international artists\, including Sammy Baloji\, Liu Bolin\, Dana Levy\, Mary Mattingly\, Pedro Neves Marques\, Gabriel Orozco\, Trevor Paglen\, and Thomas Struth\, respond to dire global and local circumstances with resistance and imagination—sustaining an openness\, wonder\, and curiosity about the world to come.\n \nRead the exhibition press release here.\n \n  \n\nThe World to Come: Art in the Age of the Anthropocene is organized by the Harn Museum of Art at the University of Florida and curated by Kerry Oliver-Smith\, Harn Museum of Art Curator of Contemporary Art.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:Scientific Advances in Sport-Related Concussion: Pathway Toward Clinical Translation
DESCRIPTION:Applied research over the past 20 years has produced major advances in the science of sport-related concussion (SRC). Modern approaches to the study of SRC have provided an innovative paradigm\, with numerous methodological advantages over traditional approaches. In a clinical setting\, both basic and applied science now drive consensus guidelines with respect to diagnosis\, treatment and protocols for return to activity after SRC. Technological advances in functional neuroimaging and blood biomarkers have created a powerful bridge between the clinical and basic science of concussion in humans. This lecture will present emerging evidence from the NCAA-DoD Concussion Assessment\, Research and Education (CARE) Consortium\, the largest and most comprehensive study of SRC to date\, and other large-scale studies of SRC. Translational impact of research on clinical practice will be highlighted.\n\nRSVP at http://myumi.ch/J2KGB.

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+

DESCRIPTION:Nora Jane Struthers has written \"some of the most quietly powerful narratives within the new wave of Americana artists\,\" says Ann Powers of NPR Music. There’s an honesty and energy to Nora Jane’s stage presence\; a vulnerability that is part and parcel of great artistry. In one moment\, she joyfully leads the audience in a dance party ... in the next\, she lays her soul bare for the world to hear. A performance by Nora Jane and her band is full to the brim with stellar musicianship\, unexpected arrangements that blur the lines between folk\, roots\, and rock\, and an audible sense that everyone in the room is having a damn good time. Nora Jane comes to Michigan with a new album on the way!

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Bookmarks: Speculating the Futures of the Book and Library
DESCRIPTION:A multi-venue exhibition of site-specific installations\, performances\, interventions\, and events by University of Michigan faculty\, staff\, and students\, Bookmarks: Speculating the Futures of the Book and Library is curated by Guna Nadarajan\, dean of the Penny W. Stamps School of Art & Design at the University of Michigan\, in partnership with the University of Michigan Library. The exhibition will be located in several locations within Shapiro Undergraduate Library\, Hatcher Graduate Library\, and the Art\, Architecture & Engineering Library. \n\nThe continued proliferation of digital formats and systems for the embodiment\, distribution\, and delivery of knowledge increasingly displace the book as form. As a result\, the spacial limitations of libraries are challenged. The value of the book and the function of the library demand cultural attention. In this moment\, we ask ourselves: what is the future of the library? What is the future of the book? This exhibition seeks to instigate and showcase creative responses to the challenges to the book and the library in the forms we have inherited as well as to project ways of reimagining futures for/of books and libraries.\n\nBookmarks: Speculating the Futures of the Book and Library is supported by the Penny W. Stamps School of Art & Design\, the University of Michigan Library\, the University of Michigan Office for Research (UMOR)\, and the University of Michigan Office of the Provost.\n\n
