SUMMARY:Exhibition:\"I have a crisis for you\": Women Artists of Ukraine Respond to War
DESCRIPTION:An exhibit curated by Grace Mahoney and Jessica Zychowicz\nFeaturing work by Kinder Album\, JT Blatty\, Oksana Briukhovetska (MFA\, Stamps School of Art and Design)\, Oksana Kazmina\, Sonya Hukaylo\, Svetlana Lavochkina\, Kateryna Lisovenko\, and Lyuba Yakimchuk.\n   \nIn February 2022\, the world witnessed the invasion of Ukraine and all-out war of aggression by the Russian Federation. Since this time\, massive casualties\, human rights violations\, and an unprecedented refugee crisis have ensued. Women artists of Ukraine have responded. They paint on found materials in refugee housing\, illustrate in bomb shelters\, photograph their shelled cities wearing press passes and bulletproof jackets. They document\, create\, and share. They post their daily journals and images on social media. They perform at the Grammy Awards. They know their message is powerful\, and the amplification of their voices is critical for victory in a very real battle for survival.\n   \nCurated by Grace Mahoney (U-M Slavic Languages and Literatures) and Jessica Zychowicz\, Ph.D. (Fulbright Ukraine and U-M Alumna)\, \"'I have a crisis for you': Women Artists of Ukraine Respond to War\" showcases work created by women artists in response to Russia’s war in Ukraine. The involved artists are painters\, photographers\, filmmakers\, poets\, translators\, and textile artists. Many of the works exhibited demonstrate a continuity of engagement by the artists with the topic of war\, especially since 2014 when the people of Ukraine gathered in a “Revolution of Dignity” against attempts by the Russian Federation to control the country’s independence resulting in Russia’s annexation of the Crimean Peninsula and backing of pro-Russian separatists in Ukraine’s east.\n   \nThe featured artists have also been selected because of their prominent interest and exploration of issues relating to gender in their works. The title for this exhibit comes from a poem of the same name by Lyuba Yakimchuk:\n“— our love’s gone missing\, I explain to a friend/ it vanished in one of the wars/ we waged in our kitchen/ — change the word ‘war’ to ‘crisis\,’ he suggests/ because a crisis is something everyone has from time to time.”\n   \nLike in Yakimchuk’s poem\, many of these artists approach the war with personal perspectives. They intertwine\, juxtapose\, and disrupt experiences of war with the intimacies of personal relationships\, the workings interior lives\, and perceptions of social roles. The featured artworks and documents engage a range of subjects from women volunteering as combatants to the processes of grieving and reflect ongoing discourses in Ukrainian feminist scholarship.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Traces
DESCRIPTION:Traces explores the relationship between the past and the present with a focus on the process of transformation as the connecting thread. The work consists of a series of collages and a collection of Polaroids that are accompanied by animations and video clips seen solely through the use of an augmented reality application (Virtual Mutations).\n\nThe scenarios presented in the static images act as literal stages for animated narratives. What once was a captured single moment echoes into motion\, creating an additional layer as to what will come thereafter. A dialogue between the past and the present is established and the app itself acts as a mediator between these tenses\, allowing the observer to have a glimpse of the afterthought\, that range from digital collages to Polaroid instant film.\n\nAbout the Artist\nCamila Magrane is a multimedia artist originally from Caracas\, Venezuela. Having a father from the U.S. and a mother from Venezuela\, she grew up alternating between both countries. Being fully exposed to two different cultures gave her a greater understanding of what it means to have various perspectives. After graduating from film school in Caracas\, she moved to San Francisco where she freelanced as an editor and camera operator. After discovering a passion for video games and interactive media\, Magrane obtained a BS in computer science with a concentration in game development. This eventually led her to working in the game industry as a cinematic artist.\n\nMagrane has been pursuing a professional career as a multimedia artist since 2017\, working within a variety of mediums\, from photography and collage to animation and virtual/augmented reality (AR). She has been most noted for the creation of her AR image-based work where she’s established a postmodern aesthetic by combining traditional darkroom techniques with the use of digital tools.\n\nPrior to her career in the arts\, Magrane worked as a community organizer and teacher\, creating and managing a curriculum for teaching 3rd-6th graders coding skills in public schools in Caracas\, Venezuela. She continues to be active in community work by giving talks and workshops revolving around the topics of art\, technology\, and the use of AR as a creative medium.\n\nCamila Magrane has exhibited work internationally in numerous exhibitions\, event spaces\, fairs\, and festivals. Selected exhibitions & clients include The Academy of Sciences\, The Exploratorium\, Themes+Projects Gallery\, Minnesota Street Project\, MUKEK\, Gray Area\, Sothebys\, and Adobe. Selected press inquiries include Forbes\, Adobe Blog\, Refinery29\, Lenscratch\, Las Vegas Weekly\, Las Vegas Review Journal\, and Open Studios Guide.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:“The Water Remembers” Performance by The Sister Tour
DESCRIPTION:Join us for a final event to\ncelebrate the powerful work of MacArthur Genius Awardee LaToya Ruby Frazier\, who\ncollaborated with artists and activists Shea Cobb\, Amber Hasan and their\nfamilies documenting\, from 2016 - 2021\, how they coped with one of the most\ndevastating man-made ecological crises in the US\, the Flint Water Crisis. \n “The Water\nRemembers” is a performance by Flint-based artist collective\, The Sister Tour.\nThis special event is a performative ethnographic experience that reframes and\nilluminates the spiritual and physical connections (and at times complicated\nrelationships) between Black Women and Water. The event will feature a \"The\nWater Remembers\" performance followed by a post-performance conversation with\nthe performers and a reception with light refreshments.Amber Hasan of The Sister Tour writes ‘For Black women water has often served as a reminder of how blessed we\nare. Regardless of religious affiliation\, we have a sacred relationship\nwith the waters of the world and have always worked to live in concert with\nwater\, protecting it when necessary\, and at other times using the water as a refuge. It is a complex bond\, the water has been a saving grace and at\nother times it has been used as the munitions of tyrants who mean to bring us\nharm.”\nThe Water Remembers performance by The Sister Tour will be performed by: Shea Cobb aka\nPhiresis\, Zion Brown\, Amber Hasan\, Os’Zaria Terry-Dye\, London Spearman\,\nAshlynn Spearman\, Niecole Middleton aka Big Juicy\, Oliser Terry-Dye\, and DeShano\nDemps Jr.\nThe Sister Tour is a community organization of artists from Flint\, Michigan\, who present a mix of spoken word\, comedy\, and music as an expression of resilience to the ongoing water crisis. Activists Shea Cobb and Amber Hasan are featured in LaToya Ruby Frazier’s photographic series\, Flint is Family In Three Acts. The Sister Tour has performed across the country including SF MOMA\, Flint Institute of Arts\, and the University of Michigan Museum of Art\, Ann Arbor\, MI.\n\nPlease contact Jennifer\nJunkermeier-Khan at jenjkhan@umich.edu for more information.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:Marjorie Lee Browne Colloquium
DESCRIPTION:Speaker:  Steven Kahn\nProfessor of Mathematics\, Wayne State University (WSU)\nCo-Founder\, WSU Math Corps\nDirector\, WSU Center for Excellence and Equity in Mathematics\n\nTitle:  Math Corps: Social Justice Through Loving and Believing in Kids--and a few Equations \n\nAbstract: For over 30 years\, the Wayne State University Math Corps—through summer camp and Saturday programs—has been working to provide Detroit’s children with the kinds of educational and lifetime opportunities that all children should have. Over the past several years\, the Math Corps at U(M) has been doing the same\, serving children from Ypsilanti. Rooted in social justice and based on a philosophy of “loving and believing in kids”\, the Math Corps has achieved dramatic results and garnered national recognition and widespread acclaim. This talk will examine some of the principles and practices that drive the program\, and that have been the most responsible for its success. Specific examples to be highlighted include: the “kids teaching kids” model of teaching and learning\, the dedication to building a community that is centered\, above all\, around kindness\, the belief in the importance of humor in all of our daily lives (“Three mathematicians walk into a bar...”)\, and most importantly\, the absolutely unwavering vision that the kids in the Math Corps are all leaders in the fight for a better and more just world.\n\nThis event is in-person and online.\nZoom: Meeting ID: 913 4525 9193    Passcode: greatness

SUMMARY:Performance:Robert Jones & Matt Watroba
DESCRIPTION:Ever since their first meeting\, over 20 years ago\, Robert Jones and Matt Watroba have been musical partners. Their relationship started when they hosted back-to-back radio shows on WDET-FM\, Detroit. Later on they started performing together and in doing so discovered a friendship based on mutual respect and a love for traditional American music. For Matt and Robert\, American roots music (folk\, blues\, spirituals\, work songs\, chants\, etc.) is music that matters. This is the music that America and the world have in common.  It is music that reflects history\, social change\, migration\, hopes and dreams. It is music that is rich and diverse\, direct and powerful. This year's program is a celebration of the life and musical legacy of Dr. Martin Luther King\, Jr.
