SUMMARY:Exhibition:High School Photo Project

The students’ choices reveal a youth culture that is wise and artistic\, assertive and joyful\, discerning and full of possibility.\n\nGifts of Art Gallery – Taubman Health Center South Lobby\, Floor 1. \n1500 E.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Personal Space: Oil & Chalk Pastel
DESCRIPTION:In this body of work\, Detroit artist and U-M alumna Laura Cavanagh explores quiet\, intimate spaces. An introvert by nature\, “space\,” and the preservation of personal space\, is immensely important to her. She encounters these spaces both indoors and out\, and she employs light and color to capture her emotional state relevant to the space. She works with oil and chalk pastel\, a medium that allows her to make tangible those moments that are fleeting and transitory. Cavanagh breaks down architectural elements into bold blocks of color\, creating an atmosphere of still quietude\, so critical to her creative process. \n\nGifts of Art Gallery – University Hospital Main Corridor\, Floor 2.\n1500 E.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Shrines & Reliquaries: Memorializing Climate
DESCRIPTION:In 2017 Leslie Sobel\, as artist in residence at Kluane National Park in Yukon Territory\, Canada\, camped on an icefield with a group of climate scientists. The landscape shrines in this exhibit combine her work as an environmental artist with the experience of that pristine\, remote\, beautiful\, and at risk environment. The mixed media boxes – utilizing painting\, monotype\, photography\, resin and encaustic – capture memories of places being altered by climate change. Meant to bring complex ideas and big emotions into a size one can literally hold in one’s hands\, the works have charred exteriors and bright colors and metal leaf echoing traditional Tibetan iconography in depicting the beauty and spiritual power of high places. \n\nGifts of Art Gallery – Taubman Health Center South Lobby\, Floor 1. \n1500 E.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Whimsical Worlds
DESCRIPTION:Surrealist painter and instructor Greg Potter is based in Franklin\, Indiana. After more than 20 years in the service and four tours in the Middle East\, he is now pursuing his passion in painting and 3D art. Lightheartedness\, quirkiness\, and a desire for freedom are his creatures’ main traits as they fly on nests\, sail on lakes\, or venture into outer space. Looking for autonomy on their way somewhere\, his boldly colored animal explorers\, tourists\, and misfits are uncaring about their surroundings and challenge expectations. They are out of their element due to circumstances beyond their control. One patient shared that for her\, Potter’s work symbolized the process of adapting to a diagnosis by transforming into someone stronger and wiser without losing who you really are.\n\nGifts of Art Gallery – Taubman Health Center North Lobby\, Floor 1. \n1500 E.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:NOS: Dismantling the Otro
DESCRIPTION:“NOS: Dismantling the Otro” is a presentation of work from the thesis project of Social Theory and Practice major Tess Garcia. The project\, which takes the form of a magazine\, profiles eight Latinx students at the University of Michigan. Each student participated in a one-on-one interview with Tess\, during which they discussed the struggles they face in relation to their heritage. Their answers served as the basis for a feature-style article. Students also took part in individual photoshoots with Tess\, whose location\, style and focus they directed. Those photos are featured in this exhibition\, along with excerpts from each student’s interview. Copies of the original magazine will be available for viewing within the gallery space. \n\n>> Opening Reception: Friday\, January 10 from 6-8pm. Refreshments will be served. \n\nIn Spanish\, “nosotros” means “we.” On its own\, however\, “otros” means “others.” The title of this exhibition omits the latter part of the word to symbolize Tess’s dreams for the Latinx community: a shared space of “we” where nobody feels like the other. \n\nTess Garcia is a senior at the University of Michigan majoring in Communication and Media and Social Theory and Practice through the Residential College. Her work in STP has centered around exploring Latinx issues through journalism\, culminating in the creation of the print magazine and accompanying exhibition for “NOS: Dismantling the Otro.”

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Large-scale Traffic Simulation: Recent Advances Based on the Macroscopic Fundamental Diagram
DESCRIPTION:This presentation focuses on modelling urban traffic dynamics\nwith Network Macroscopic Fundamental Diagrams (MFD). Recent\ndevelopments in MFD simulation propose two general formulations that\ncan both be applied to multi-reservoir systems. The first is the classical\naccumulation-based formulation when traffic dynamics in each reservoir is governed by a conservation equation. The second is the more recently developed trip-based formulation when vehicle trips have individual lengths but share a single time-dependent mean speed in each region. The different model settings in both frameworks (merge\, diverge\, entry flow functions) are discussed and compared to microscopic simulations. The integration of multiclass extensions (mainly to represent public transport) is also presented with a particular focus on the resulting traffic dynamics at the reservoir boundaries. The question of MFD model calibration is then addressed considering two central questions: (i) the regional triplength estimation and (ii) the scaling of observations to determine the vehicle accumulations and travel productions. Several applications are discussed in the end: validation of the multi-reservoir setting for the city of Lyon\, optimization of ride-sharing services\, perimeter control for\nreducing network-wide emissions.\n\nLudovic Leclercq is research director at IFSTTAR and professor in traffic flow theory at the University of Lyon\, France.

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: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: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:Reflections: An Ordinary Day
DESCRIPTION:UMMA’s second exhibition of Inuit art derived from the Power Family’s generous promised gift to the Museum in 2018 explores the relationship between the artist and the representation of everyday experiences. Through a selection of mid-century to contemporary Inuit prints\, drawings\, and sculptures that portray seemingly ordinary reflections of daily life along with daydreaming meditations\, the exhibition bridges the mundane and the fantastic. Together\, these artworks present a distinct imagery and a visual poetry culled from the day-to-day reality of life in the far polar north. The perspectives range from soaring gazes at the horizon to glimpses of commonplace social interactions. These contemplations reveal intimate connections among the artists\, their communities\, and their locale—a specific place and time composed of icy regions and vast seas and tundras. Reflections: An Ordinary Day takes visitors on a lyrical journey of the myriad spaces and routines within an Arctic landscape.\n\nThis exhibition is made possible by the Power Family Program for Inuit Art\, established in 2018 through the generosity of Philip and Kathy Power.

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:Lecture / Discussion:Interdisciplinary Workshop in Comparative Politics (IWCP)
DESCRIPTION:How does information affect how autocratic governments make concessions to subnational protest campaigns? I argue the strategic purpose of concessions varies depending on the level of information about the grievance available to the government. In cases where the government has little prior awareness of the motivating grievance\, protests convey valuable new information\, and concessions are used as a long-term adaptation strategy\, to eliminate grievances and prevent citizens from becoming regime opponents. In many cases\, however\, the government already possesses information that policies it desires to pursue are unpopular and will produce protest. Here\, the government has sufficient information that it deliberately avoids or manipulates consultative institutions. Concessions are then used as a short-term demobilization strategy to disrupt a campaign’s capacity to mobilize. Once mobilization diminishes\, the government can renege\, or deliberately fail to implement the promised concession and pursues its desired policies unchanged. I test the implications of this theory with an original dataset\, Protest Campaigns of Moscow (PCoM)\, which contains observations on 64 protest campaigns held in Moscow\, Russia\, against the city government\, from 2013-2018. Based on extensive data collection from Russian-language social networking sites\, mass media\, and interest-group specific websites\, this is the first campaign-level dataset to include detailed information about the implementation of concessions up to four years after the initial government promise. I find that when the government deliberately avoided acquiring public opinion information\, reneging occurred in 61% of cases\, whereas when consultation was not avoided\, reneging occurred in 38% of cases.\n\nSasha de Vogel's research in comparative politics focuses on the dynamics of authoritarian regimes in the former Soviet Union. She is interested in the relationship between mass mobilization\, state repression\, institutional reform and regime stability. Her dissertation considers concessions as a strategy of protest demobilization.\n\nThe Interdisciplinary Workshop in Comparative Politics (IWCP) provides a platform for sharing and improving research that provides comparative perspectives on the causes and effects of political and economic processes. We have participants from Economics\, the Ford School of Public Policy\, the Law School\, the Lieberthal-Rogel Center for Chinese Studies\, Mathematics\, Political Science\, the Ross School of Business\, Sociology\, Statistics\, and the Weiser Center for Emerging Democracies.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:HET Seminar | Searching for Dark Matter Interactions in Cosmology
DESCRIPTION:There is a substantial effort in the physics community to search for dark matter interactions with the Standard Model of particle physics. Collisions between dark matter particles and baryons exchange heat and momentum in the early Universe\, enabling a search for dark matter interactions using cosmological observations in a parameter space that is complementary to that of direct detection. In this talk\, I will describe the effects of scattering in cosmology and show constraints using Planck 2015 data and SDSS-identified satellite galaxies of the Milky Way. I will also discuss the implications of late-time scattering during the era of Cosmic Dawn.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:SoConDi Discussion Group: \"Convergence\, Divergence and Innovation in Language Contact\"
DESCRIPTION:Marlyse Baptista\, Uriel Weinreich Collegiate Professor of Linguistics\, will give a talk on \"Convergence\, Divergence and Innovation in Language Contact: A View from Creole Genesis.\"  \n\nABSTRACT\nFrom the early years of Contact Linguistics (Schuchardt\, 1882)\, linguists have noted that when two or more languages come into contact\, whether it is in the context of L2 acquisition (Ellis & Sagarra\, 2011\;Tolentino\, L. C.\, & N. Tokowicz\,  2014)\, bilingualism (Silva-Corvalán\, 1994\; Toribio\, 2004)\, trilingualism (Rothman\, 2010\, 2015\; Rothman & Cabrelli Amaro\, 2010\; Rothman et al.\, 2015) or multilingualism leading to language creation (Rougé\, 1986\; Kihm\, 1990\; Corne\, 1999)\, it is often (but not always!) the case that the features that the languages in contact have in common promote acquisition or language creation.  More precisely\, the phonemes\, morphemes\, lexemes or syntactic structures that speakers perceive as being similar in the languages in contact\, what we will call here\, congruent features or domains\, are likely to be acquired more easily in L2 (or L3/L4...) or are more likely to contribute to the grammatical make-up (and lexicon) of the emerging language in the case of creole genesis.\n\nThis paper represents a first step in a long-term research program exploring how new languages emerge in a multilingual setting.  It examines the role of convergence in Creole formation and development\, using a competition and selection framework. Specifically\, it illustrates how morphosyntactic and semantic features are more likely to be selected into the grammatical makeup of a given Creole when they preexist and are shared by some of the source languages present in its linguistic ecology.  This is empirically supported in this paper by numerous case studies and a survey of congruent features in 20 contact languages across 19 grammatical and lexical domains.  In order to show how convergence operates\, I propose an algorithm and a model of matter and pattern mapping\, adapted to the multilingual setting in which Creole languages emerge.  In addition to a set of variables\, the model includes both the linguistic ecology (linguistic factors) and speakers' attitudes (non-linguistic factors) (Thomason\, 2001) to predict (in a non-deterministic fashion) the features that are more likely to win within a competition and selection framework (Mufwene\, 2001). It shows that even when a given feature is traceable to two or more sources\, it readily diverges from the original sources and is innovative.  The paper also explores cases where convergence does not take place and examines the conditions underlying such outcome.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:Interdisciplinary Workshop American Politics (IWAP)
DESCRIPTION:The Interdisciplinary Workshop on American Politics (IWAP) is a forum for the presentation of ongoing interdisciplinary research in American politics. Most of our presentations are given by graduate students. Each graduate student presenter is assigned a faculty and student discussant. IWAP circulates the work beforehand and the student presents it briefly at the start of the meeting. After discussant feedback\, the bulk of the time is reserved for group discussion among all workshop participants. This format leads to informal yet highly interactive and productive conversations.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:Smith Lecture: What Can Little Faults Tell Us About Big Earthquakes?
DESCRIPTION:The physics of fault growth governs the evolution of faults within the Earth’s crust and ultimately\, the behavior of devastating earthquakes. With carefully scaled physical experiments that use analogs for crustal materials\, we can speed up and scale down crustal processes so that they occur within hours on a table-top rather than millennia within the Earth’s crust.  This experimental study examines the evolution of fault systems with particular attention to temporal variations in fault slip rate associated with interaction and reorganization of faults. If faults slip at the same rate throughout time\, then we could use the record of past earthquakes to guide earthquake forecasts. However\, with recent improvements to the fidelity of slip rate records\, we see increasing geologic evidence for non-constant fault slip rates in regions of multiple active faults. The experiments show that with deformation\, the faults can interact and evolve so that their slip rates may vary by ~30% through time even when the loading rate is constant. The observed variations in slip rate under constant loading rate in our experiments imply that earthquake forecasts along complex fault networks\, such as southern California or the Marlborough area of New Zealand might not be able to rely on past records of slip.
