SUMMARY:Exhibition:Civitates Orbis Terrarum: Braun & Hogenberg’s Evolving World
DESCRIPTION:Civitates Orbis Terrarum (Cities of the World)\, the first standardized city atlas\, contains over 540 maps and views between its six volumes. First published in 1572 by Georg Braun (1541-1622) and Frans Hogenberg (1535-1590)\, Civitates was first intended as a companion to Ortelius’s Theatrum Orbis Terrarum. New editions of the city atlas continued to be printed through 1617. Hogenberg\, one of the most prolific engravers of the time\, was joined by many other engravers in creating the Civitates. Braun edited the work and provided the descriptions of the cities on the verso of each plate. This exhibit contains 18 works from the Civitates\, including many from the Clark Library’s holdings. Also included are reproductions of large panoramas Amsterdam\, London\, and St. Petersburg that reflect the evolution of city mapping through the 17th and 18th centuries.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Football & Pets: Paper Sculpture
DESCRIPTION:This exhibit of Steve Wirtz’ sculptures features a selection of his Dynamic Football series and animal works. The Dynamic Football laminated paper works explore compositions of action\, allowing the artist to exploit the properties of the medium. The pieces are constructed by gluing many layers of paper over wire armatures. When dry\, the sculptures are painted in an often splashy\, sketchy style. Wirtz’ silly animal works are what the artist is best known for\, and they take shape in his Goetzville\, Michigan studio.\n\nGifts of Art Gallery – University Hospital Main Corridor\, Floor 2\n1500 E.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Oil on Water: Painting on Linen
DESCRIPTION:Danielle Eubank is an award-winning artist who has been on four international sailing expeditions and painted every ocean on the planet to raise awareness about the oceans and climate change. Her large paintings are emotive abstract portraits of specific bodies of water. The Oil on Water exhibition features Eubank’s oil on linen paintings of the Arctic Ocean and the Mediterranean Sea. She creates patterns within patterns\, representing vertical stacks of rhythms. The undulating forms\, such as water ripples\, oil slicks\, and refuse\, combined with the memories that water evokes\, makes her work eye-opening\, yet soothing and sensual. \n\nGifts of Art Gallery – University Hospital Main Lobby\, Floor 1                                                                       \n1500 E.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Pen & Ink Queens
DESCRIPTION:Introverted and shy by nature\, Laura Cavanagh uses her art as an outlet to create humorous larger than life personalities. In Pen & Ink Queens\, Cavanagh draws inspiration from medieval and renaissance-era garments to adorn quirky\, queenly figures. Cavanagh works in a style that is hyper-detailed and intricate\, so she remains present during the creative process. A true Michigander\, Cavanagh was born and raised in Southeast Michigan\, attended U-M\, and currently works in Detroit. Cavanagh makes a concerted effort to exhibit as much as possible in her home state\, and when she is not in her studio\, you can find her cooking\, practicing yoga or playing with her cat\, Benji.\n\nGifts of Art Gallery – University Hospital Main Corridor\, Floor 2\n1500 E.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Ваза: Copper & Brass Vessels
DESCRIPTION:Victoria (Vika) Bulgakova grew up in Ukraine\, a part of the former Soviet Union. She immigrated to the U.S. in 1994\, and for the next 22 years\, New York became her home. In 2016\, she moved to Michigan to pursue an MFA at Cranbrook Academy of Art. She found the raw beauty of Detroit inspiring and kept her metalsmithing studio practice in the city. The copper and brass vessels in her Ваза series and other included works are a meditation on fluidity of memories: their ability to shift from reflection to re-invention over time. Each vessel potentially holds something within its boundaries\, whether tangible or not. \n\nGifts of Art Gallery – Taubman Health Center North Lobby\, Floor 1\n1500 E.

SUMMARY:Conference / Symposium:ASC Event. STEM V: Innovation and Appropriate Technology in Africa
DESCRIPTION:“Appropriate Technology” refers here to efforts of scientists and engineers to help people on the Continent provide products and services for themselves from locally sourced and led efforts\, as an alternative to “Global North” and other foreign suppliers whose products generally involve significant overhead in the international market. Appropriate technology is based on sound scientific and engineering fundamentals\, and usually involves rethinking technical problems to come up with alternatives to the standard solutions. The emphasis is on close proximity of the engineer/scientist to the user population and a resulting intimate understanding of what their technical problems are. It is also based on a philosophy of creativity and “less can be more”\, where designing solutions with\, say\, severe materials sourcing or distribution constraints\, can be more challenging\, but the results more transformative for the user population and rewarding for the engineer/scientist.\n   \nDr. Musaazi has been a source of inspiration to STEM-Africa and African Studies Center since before even our founding ten years ago. He has been a long term collaborator on experiences for U-M students\, especially undergraduates\, who participated in joint appropriate technology projects with his team. Dr. Musaazi was driven by a concern to empower communities\, to unlock their creative potential\, circumventing systemic hurdles to such potential from the global marketplace or inequitable local mores. He was particularly sensitive to the problems of young women in developing societies whose communities’ traditions may not have adequately valued their advancement or their potential contributions to their societies.\n   \nThe conference brings together some of the best practitioners from the continent and their collaborators at U-M to assess the current state of appropriate technology approaches\, from the engineering/ scientific perspective\, but also in terms of local innovation and entrepreneurship viewed as vital to the effective distribution of creative solutions to on the ground problems and empowerment of the user communities\, and especially of women.\n\n-----\nIf you are a person with a disability who requires an accommodation to attend this event\, please reach out to us 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. Contact: asc-contact@umich.edu

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Navigating the Intersection of Professional & Social Identities Retreat
DESCRIPTION:Social identities make up who we are as unique individuals and influence us on a daily basis. Join us for this 2-day weekend retreat to reflect on the intersection of our social and professional identities. We will discuss the impact they have on how we navigate workplaces and dive deep into understanding what it means when our social and professional identities come into conflict. We will focus explicitly on how our social identities impact our experience in exploring industries and positions we hope to pursue\, our job application materials\, and the interview and negotiation process. Applications are due by September 22nd at 11:59pm. Please apply at https://tinyurl.com/Navigating20. This event is intended for undergraduate LSA Students.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Other Crusoes\, Other Islands: Mapping a Complex Legacy
DESCRIPTION:On the 300th anniversary of the publication of The Life and Surprising Adventures of Robinson Crusoe\, of York\, Mariner\, this exhibit interrogates the troubled legacy of Daniel Defoe’s seminal English novel. It also explores how creators have pushed back against the colonialist\, hyper-masculine\, and racist ethos of the text by using the castaway narrative to explore self-sufficiency\, otherness\, and the role of gendered and racialized ideas in constructing the self.\n\nThis novel of shipwreck\, survival\, and rescue has become a cultural touchstone. Today\, many people who haven’t read the novel still feel familiar with key plot elements\, Robinson Crusoe\, and Friday. Yet\, there is less familiarity with how both the original text and many of the adaptations of Robinson Crusoe have fed into and reinforced narratives of imperialism and racism. Drawing on the Hubbard Collection of Imaginary Voyages - one of the world’s most comprehensive collections of editions\, translations\, adaptations\, and spin-offs of Robinson Crusoe - Other Crusoes\, Other Islands seeks to understand how readers and writers have engaged with the story since its initial publication in 1719.\n\nContent Advisory: Please be aware that some items in this exhibit feature racist imagery and potentially painful content. Although Robinson Crusoe is often treated as children’s literature and this exhibit includes children’s books and board games\, it is not an exhibit geared towards children and reflects the significant shifts over time in ideas about what is appropriate for children.

SUMMARY:Other:Drug Takeback Events Across Washtenaw County
DESCRIPTION:U-M's Michigan Opioid Prescribing Engagement Network (Michigan OPEN) is partnering with hospitals\, pharmacies\, community organizations\, and police departments across Washtenaw County to host medication take back events on Saturday\, Oct. 19 from 10 a.m. to 2 p.m.\n\nNine sites throughout Washtenaw County are hosting take back events on this day. (Other sites around the state will offer take-back events on October 26.)\n\n• Ann Arbor: St. Francis Catholic School\, 2270 E. Stadium\n• Chelsea: St. Joseph Mercy Chelsea Hospital\, 775 S. Main St.\n• Dexter: Monument Park\, Baker Road at Main Street\n• Milan: Milan Police Department\, 35 Neckel Ct.\n• Saline: Saline Police Department\, 100 N. Harris St.\n• Whitmore Lake: Northfield Township Community & Senior Center\, 9101 Main St.\n• Ypsilanti: Corner Health Center\, 47 N. Huron St.\n• Ypsilanti: St. Joseph Mercy Hospital\, 5301 McAuley Dr.\n• Ypsilanti: West Willow Community Resource Center\, 2057 Tyler Rd.\n\nFor more information visit http://michigan-open.org \n\nResearch has found that about 70 percent of the opioid pain medicines prescribed for surgery go unused and are not disposed. This is also true for other medications that have potential for abuse\, and increases the potential for these medications to be diverted into the community or contaminate our waterways. Take back events provide a safe process for disposing of unused medications while protecting our communities\, children\, and environment. \n\nRemove the risk from your home and bring any unused opioids and other medications to an event in your community.\n\nMichigan OPEN’s efforts with take back events have led to more than 9\,600 pounds of unused medications and approximately 172\,700 opioids being collected and properly disposed.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Literature in Fragments: Lost Greek Works at Michigan
DESCRIPTION:This exhibit presents a selection of such fragmentary literary texts from the University of Michigan’s Papyrology Collection. Although literary papyri represent a small fraction of surviving papyrus texts\, they nonetheless enable scholars both to improve their readings of known literary texts and to illuminate the rich diversity of ancient Greek literature\, the overwhelming majority of which has been lost to time.\n\nThe Greek literature that survives complete in the present day largely represents the texts that were the most popular in antiquity\, works like Homer’s Iliad and Euripides’ Medea. These texts were repeatedly copied throughout antiquity and the Middle Ages\, ensuring their continued transmission. Literary texts on papyri\, however\, provide a rare opportunity to glimpse fragments of ancient literature in their original form and to discover works that were read in antiquity but did not otherwise survive into the medieval and modern periods. This includes lesser-known works by such famous authors as Aristophanes and the Greek tragedians\, as well as fragments of texts whose authors remain unknown.\n\nThe exhibit was curated by Allison Thorsen\, UMSI student\, and can be viewed during regular hours of the Special Collections Research Center:\nhttps://www.lib.umich.edu/special-collections-research-center

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Nature a Moment: Visions of the World from Three Korean-American Artists
DESCRIPTION:Three Chicago-area Korean-American artists render deeply personal interpretations of the natural world in the exhibit “Nature a Moment” at Matthaei Botanical Gardens. Using woodcut\, painting on canvas\, and mixed media\, Linda Hyong\, Sung Eun Hong\, and Seong Ok Lee explore the world of flowers\, gardens\, and nature in vivid works that slow time to a fleeting present moment.\n\nLinda Hyong is a University of Michigan alumna and former teaching assistant in the U-M Stamps School of Art & Design. She draws her inspiration from Claude Monet’s water lily garden in France to create her own modern interpretation of impressionism. Seong Ok Lee is inspired by flowers\, which she believes are the most beautiful forms in nature. In her dream-like\, nearly abstract paintings\, Sung Eun Hong communicates her vision of what she calls “pure dreams and fantasy.”\n\nExhibit runs September 14 through November 15\, 2019 at the\n\nUniversity of Michigan Matthaei Botanical Gardens\, 1800 N. Dixboro Rd.\, Ann Arbor. Free.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:WiAn: White Garden With White Noise
DESCRIPTION:October 5 - November 2\, 2019\nOpening Reception: Friday\, October 4\, 6-8 pm\nCenter Galleries at the College for Creative Studies\, Detroit\n\nWiAn: White Garden With White Noise is co-presented by Center Galleries and the Penny W. Stamps School of Art & Design\, with support from the Nam Center for Korean Studies at the University of Michigan.\n\nThrough visually and auditorily immersive installation\, artist JuYeon Kim recognizes\, illuminates\, and honors the unimaginable suffering and enduring spirit of the Korean “comfort women” (wianbu in Korean) who were forced into sex slavery by the Japanese military during World War II.\n\nIt is estimated over 200\,000 Korean women fell prey to Japanese soldiers during this time period\, many were as young as 14 years old. The girls and women\, often from rural villages\, were enslaved in a variety of ways\, including kidnapping\, coercion\, or being convinced with lies of paid factory work during desperate times of famine. Victims of forced sterilization\, many died during their time of enslavement. Those who survived often did not return home after the war for fear of stigma and rejection. For much of history\, their story has remained untold.\n\nThrough WiAn\, Kim invites viewers to join her in the recognition of this atrocity — and in providing comfort to the souls of these women. Through meditative poetry\, a soundscape by classical music composer George Tsontakis\, and sculptural objects\, Kim creates a physical space for the souls of these women to be honored\, to be comforted\, to let go of the past\, and to move forward. \n\nVisitors to the exhibition encounter an ethereal white gardenscape of transparent and opaque fictitious flora\, comprised of many different plant specimens. White\, the traditional color for Korean funerals\, returns the women to their rightful purity and innocence. At the center of the garden\, two palanquins engraved with original poetry invite the souls of the wianbu to take rest from their arduous journey to be carried like royalty\, to receive unequivocal compassion and kindness. A transparent door and trellis\, also engraved with original poetry\, invites souls to move lightly\, unburdened\, to the next chapter of being.\n\nIn a time when the #metoo movement has brought about a cultural reckoning\, Kim’s work also provides comfort\, strength\, and a space of contemplation for the living\, to all who have suffered and still suffer at the hands of systemic power inequity.\n\nJuYeon Kim is the 2019 Roman J. Witt Artist in Residence at the Penny W. Stamps School of Art & Design at the University of Michigan. \n\n

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\nUMMA gratefully acknowledges the following donors for their generous support of this exhibition:\n\nLead Exhibition Sponsors: University of Michigan Office of the Provost\, Michigan Medicine\, and College of Literature\, Science\, and the Arts\n\nExhibition Endowment Donors:  Richard and Rosann Noel Endowment Fund\, Herbert W. and Susan L. Johe Endowment\, and Robert and Janet Miller Fund\n\nUniversity of Michigan Funding Partners: Institute for Research on Women and Gender\, School of Social Work\, Department of Political Science\, and Department of Women's Studies

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Abstraction\, Color\, and Politics:
DESCRIPTION:In the midst of the political and cultural upheavals of the 60s and 70s\, artists\, critics\, and the public grappled with the relationship between art\, politics\, race\, and feminism. During these decades\, the notion that abstraction was a purely formal and American art form\, concerned only with timeless themes disconnected from the present\, was met with increased skepticism. Women artists and artists of color began to actively and assertively explore abstraction’s possibilities. The artworks in Abstraction\, Color\, and Politics: The 1960s and 1970s demonstrate both radical and disarming changes in how artists worked and what they thought their art was about. Their new formal and intellectual strategies—seen here across large-scale and miniature work—dramatically transformed the practice of abstraction in the 1960s and 1970s in a politically shifting American landscape.\n\nUMMA gratefully acknowledges the following donors for their generous support:\n\nLead Exhibition Sponsors: University of Michigan Office of the Provost\, Michigan Medicine\, and College of Literature\, Science\, and the Arts\n\nExhibition Endowment Donors:  Richard and Rosann Noel Endowment Fund\, Herbert W. and Susan L. Johe Endowment\, and Robert and Janet Miller Fund\n\nUniversity of Michigan Funding Partners: Institute for Research on Women and Gender\, School of Social Work\, Department of Political Science\, and Department of Women's Studies

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Border Control: Traversing Horizons in Media Practice
DESCRIPTION:In September 2019\, the University of Michigan Penny W. Stamps School of Art & Design will host the New Media Caucus 2019 Symposium and Exhibition\, Border Control.  Symposium and exhibition events will take place in Ann Arbor at the Stamps School of Art and Design (2000 Bonisteel Blvd.) and Stamps Gallery (201 S. Division St.).\n\nExhibition Dates: September 20 - November 10\, 2019\nSymposium Dates: September 19 - 22\, 2019\nGuest Curator: Allison Collins\, Media Arts Curator\, Western Front\n\nCurated by Allison Collins in collaboration with Carrie Edinger and Srimoyee Mitra.\nIn partnership with the New Media Caucus \n\nHuman migration is a defining issue of the 21st century\, often calling into question the relevance\, role\, and responsibilities of national borders across the globe. As individuals seek refuge from geopolitical and environmental forces\, we become an increasingly globalized community. Demarcations of all types are simultaneously porous and closed\, defensive and receptive\, and seen in almost every facet of our existence. Border Control responds to these conditions with an open-ended question\, asking: “How has humanity made sense of the world in relation to borders and boundaries\, both physically and psychologically?” While positioned within (or outside of) defined spaces and identities\, human refusal of such literal definitions is paramount. Even while lines drawn have important consequences for lived reality\, the winds\, currents\, and natural energies of the Earth deny enclosures and definitions that politics and maps might suggest.\n\nDrawn from practices that are touched or driven by new media\, Border Control assembles works by artists who consider geographical contexts\, patterns of migration\, displacement\, and statelessness. Collectively\, they offer projects with subterfuge\, refusal\, and reconsideration of imposed state-sanctioned boundaries.\n\n \n\n

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Collection Ensemble
DESCRIPTION:Collection Ensemble presents the first major reinstallation of UMMA's iconic entry space in over a decade. It exchanges Alumni Memorial Hall's previous focus on European and American painting for a broad mix of American\, European\, African\, and Asian art from across media\, sampling the Museum's remarkable\, disparate holdings. The installation is organized into thematic and formal vignettes that respond to the concepts and ideas resonating from an extraordinary large-scale photograph of a vacant cathedral by contemporary German artist Candida Höfer. Featuring works of art by numerous famous and not-so-famous artists\, many of them artists of color and women—including Charles Alston\, Christo\, Theaster Gates\, Jenny Holzer\, Roni Horn\, Do-Ho Suh\, Kara Walker\, and others\, Collection Ensemble reimagines the collection not as a fixed entity with one set of meanings to be unearthed\, but instead as an active\, creative\, sometimes startling source of material and ideas\, open for debate and interpretation.\n\n

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Copies and Invention in East Asia
DESCRIPTION:Far from being frowned upon as uncreative\, in China\, Korea\, and Japan\, copying has long been considered a valuable practice. Through works of art spanning ancient to contemporary times\, Copies and Invention in East Asia challenges our understanding of originality\, and presents copying as an act of imaginative interpretation. The exhibition includes burial goods that conjure a world for the deceased\; Buddhist sculptures produced in multiples to amplify religious experience and meaning\; paintings in which a master’s brushstrokes are faithfully duplicated as a way of shaping the self\; and contemporary works that address multiplicity and duplication in the modern world.\n\nLead support is provided by the University of Michigan Office of the Provost\, Michigan Medicine\, Lieberthal-Rogel Center for Chinese Studies\, Center for Japanese Studies\, Nam Center for Korean Studies\, School of Information\, and College of Engineering. Additional generous support is provided by the University of Michigan Fabrication Studio at the Duderstadt Center\, the Department of Asian Languages and Cultures\, and SeeMeCNC 3D Printers.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Mari Katayama
DESCRIPTION:Japanese artist Mari Katayama (born 1987) features her own body in a provocative series of works combining photography\, sculpture\, and textile. Born with a developmental condition\, the artist had both her legs amputated at the age of nine and has worn prosthetics ever since. In order to fill a deep gap between her own understanding of self and physicality\, and contemporary society’s simplistic categorizations\, Katayama began to explore her identity by objectifying her body in her art. In photographs she assumes different personas\, dressed in revealing lingerie in private\, domestic spaces or in dramatic waterscapes. The unflinching display of the vulnerabilities and limits of Katayama’s body opens up a broader conversation about anxieties and wounds for all of us—disabled or nondisabled—living in an age obsessed with body image. UMMA’s installation will be the artist’s first solo exhibition in the U.S.\n\nLead support for this exhibition is provided by the University of Michigan Office of the Provost\, Center for Japanese Studies\, the Japan Business Society of Detroit Foundation\, the Japan Cultural Development\, and Herbert W. and Susan L. Johe Endowment. Additional generous support is provided by the Susan and Richard Gutow Endowed Fund\, the University of Michigan CEW+ Frances and Sydney Lewis Visiting Leaders Fund\, Institute for Research on Women and Gender\, Department of Asian Languages and Cultures\, and Women's Studies Department.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:New at UMMA: Walter Oltmann
DESCRIPTION:Infant Skull II\, a woven “tapestry” made out of very fine aluminum wire\, only reveals its shape when seen from afar. Drawing inspiration from his country’s basketry traditions\, the South African artist Walter Oltmann (b. 1960) alternates densely layered sections with open spaces\, allowing the underlying surface of the work to show through. The skull that emerges is\, in a South African context\, evocative of the Cradle of Humankind—a series of caves outside Johannesburg\, where some of the oldest hominin fossils in the world have been found.\n \nThe work complements UMMA’s renowned and growing collection of historical and contemporary African art and reminds us of the central role of Africa in the history of humankind. The purchase was made possible thanks to the generosity of UMMA Director's Acquisition Committee.\n\nThis acquisition was made possible by the generosity of the UMMA Director's Acquisition Committee\, 2016.

SUMMARY:Presentation:Science Forum Demo: Counting Cells
DESCRIPTION:Join us in the Science Forum for 15-20 minute engaging science demonstrations that will help you see the world around you in a whole new way. Demonstrations are appropriate for visitors ages 5 and above. \n\nThe human body is made of more than 37 trillion cells. Most of them need to be replaced every couple of months\, weeks\, or sometimes in the course of only a few days. Our cells grow and divide constantly to get this massive job done. But how do cells replicate themselves? How do things move in\, out\, and around the cell\, and into new cells? Join us as we explore how our bodies carry out this massive process. We will learn about cell structure and division and observe cells up-close and in action! Funded by the National Science Foundation.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Take Your Pick: Collecting Found Photographs
DESCRIPTION:Come help build our collection of “ordinary” American 20th-century photographs.\n \nTake Your Pick invites you—the Museum’s visitors—to select photographs for our permanent collection. What belongs in a permanent collection\, and why? Who and what should be represented\, and how should we decide? This exhibition considers these questions in regard to 1\,000 amateur photographs on loan from the private collection of Peter J. Cohen\, who has gathered more than 60\,000 snapshots while exploring flea markets in the United States and Europe over two decades. The images he has collected depict all aspects of daily life and reveal the dynamic histories of amateur photography. Such pictures have particular significance in the current digital age\, when it is much less common to make physical copies of personal photographs. They constitute important artifacts of twentieth-century visual culture and precedents for the photographs we still make today. You are invited to make your voice heard in the selection process by voting for the photographs that resonate most with you!  \n \nVote for your favorite pictures: Saturday\, September 21\, 2019 – Sunday\, January 12\, 2020 Final selections on view: Tuesday\, January 14 – Sunday\, February 23\, 2020\n\nSupport for this exhibition is provided by Cecilia and Mark Vonderheide and the University of Michigan Office of the Provost and Department of Film\, Television\, and Media.\n

SUMMARY:Exhibition:The Power Family Program for Inuit Art: Tillirnanngittuq​
DESCRIPTION:An exhibition celebrating the exceptional gift of 20th-century Inuit art to the Museum by the Power family\n \nTwo fascinating stories converge in one very special exhibition: One tracks the development and subsequent worldwide acclaim of contemporary Inuit art from the Canadian Arctic. The other traces the Power family’s seminal role in supporting Inuit art and introducing it to a U.S. audience. Seventy years ago\, neither the Inuit artists nor the Power family could have foreseen the tremendous popularity that this work would come to enjoy. Taking its title from the Inuktitut word for “unexpected\,” this stirring exhibition showcases 58 works from the collection of Philip and Kathy Power\, most from the very early contemporary period of the 1950s and 60s. Included are exquisite sculptures of ivory\, bone\, and stone\, as well as stonecut and stencil prints\, some from the first annual Inuit print collection in 1959. Among the renowned Inuit artists featured in this historic survey are Kenojuak Ashevak\, Lucy Qinnuayuak\, Niviaksiak\, Osuitok Ipeelee\, Kananginak Pootoogook\, and Johnny Inukpuk.\n \nThe exhibition also serves as a promising launch pad for future groundbreaking research\, exhibitions\, and programming related to Inuit art and culture at the University of Michigan\, thanks to the generosity of the Power family.\n\nThis exhibition inaugurates the Power Family Program for Inuit Art\, established in 2018 through the generosity of Philip and Kathy Power.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Exhibition | Graffiti as Devotion along the Nile: El-Kurru\, Sudan
DESCRIPTION:Ancient graffiti provide a unique glimpse into the lives of individuals in antiquity. Religious devotion in ancient Kush (a region located in modern-day northern Sudan)\, involved pilgrimage and leaving informal marks on temples\, pyramids\, and other monumental structures. These graffiti are found in temples throughout the later (“Meroitic”) period of Kush\, when it bordered Roman Egypt. They represent one of the few direct traces of the devotional practices of private people in Kush and hint at individuals’ thoughts\, values\, and daily lives. This exhibition explores the times and places in which Kushite graffiti were inscribed through photos\, text\, and interactive media presentations. At the heart of the show are the hundreds of Meroitic graffiti recently discovered in a rock-cut temple by the Kelsey expedition to El-Kurru in northern Sudan.\n\nCurators: Geoff Emberling and Suzanne Davis\n\nView the online exhibition:\nhttp://exhibitions.kelsey.lsa.umich.edu/graffiti-el-kurru/

SUMMARY:Performance:Gilbert and Sullivan’s The Pirates of Penzance
DESCRIPTION:Young Frederic\, who has spent his formative years as a junior pirate\, plans to mark his 21st birthday by breaking free from the Pirate King and beginning his courtship of Mabel. But because he was born in a Leap Year\, Frederic isn’t technically 21– and the Pirate King is still his master. Unless something gives\, Frederic will soon be on a collision course with the Pirate King’s new nemesis: Mabel’s father.\n\nThis updated version of the original D’Oyly Carte production marries the wit of British Music Hall and the American show-biz know-how of a combustive Broadway musical\; including dance\, visual gags\, and many well-loved songs such as “I am the Very Model of a Modern Major-General\,” “Poor Wand’ring One\,” and “A Policeman’s Lot is Not a Happy One.” The Pirates of Penzance is the quintessence of silly\, a delightful excuse to indulge in the literate humor of Gilbert’s libretto\, the enchanting melodies of Arthur Sullivan’s score\, and the powerhouse talents of our Musical Theatre students.
