SUMMARY:Exhibition:Humanize the Numbers
DESCRIPTION:*Humanize the Numbers* presents the perspectives of men in Michigan prisons. \n\nThe prison system regulates every part of an inmate's identity. Instead of using their name\, they are given an ID number. Visiting room photos and mug shots are tightly regulated. Personal info is recorded: height\, weight\, etc. In the process\, their humanity is denied.\n\nThis exhibit reveals the faces and stories of those in prison. It lifts up the voices of those who have been silenced by the criminal legal system. The Humanize the Numbers project gives them a freedom not normally allowed in prison. They share their stories with the world outside. By doing so\, those in prison reclaim their humanity.\n\nProudly presented by Prison Creative Arts Project\, MI Radio\, and The Guild of Artists & Artisans

SUMMARY:Fair / Festival:BioArtography Booth at the Ann Arbor Art Fair
DESCRIPTION:BioArtography will be in South University Booth SU1103 (Between E. Univ. and Church) the Ann Arbor Art Fair! Spectacular new images for 2023 will be making their debut!\n\nJuly 20 10:00 a.m. - 9:00 p.m.  (Thu)\nJuly 21 10:00 a.m. - 9:00 p.m.  (Fri)\nJuly 22 10:00 a.m. - 8:00 p.m.  (Sat)\n\nEvery day at the University of Michigan\, scientists from many fields work together to study organism development\, function and disease. While the goal of these studies is to design new and effective ways to treat disease and provide better understanding of ourselves as well as the world around us\, many are also taking the time to share the beauty of their work with others through a program called BioArtography. In the course of research\, scientists use special stains to add color to the otherwise transparent tissues. Microscopes then allow detailed observation of the tiny\, colorful biological structures revealed in these images. This results in a fascinating combination of art and science that U-M researchers are capturing in pictures taken through microscopes and turning into artworks that would look beautiful on any wall.\n\nThe goal of these studies is to design new and effective ways to treat disease and provide better understanding of ourselves as well as the world that surrounds us. Proceeds from the sale of this work help support the training of our next generation of researchers. Past BioArtography sales have raised enough money to send more than 100 graduate students and postdoctoral fellows to scientific conferences\, where they can present their work to other scientists and make connections that can help them launch their careers in research and industry.\n\nThroughout the year BioArtography images (a collection of over 250) can be viewed and ordered online at www.bioartography.com

SUMMARY:Exhibition:UN/EARTH
DESCRIPTION:Featuring work by Gina Gibson\, UN/EARTH explores science and art from a mile underground. Located in the former Homestake gold mine in Lead\, South Dakota\, the Sanford Underground Research Facility (SURF) houses experiments that give us a better understanding of the universe. The location—deep underground—provides a near-perfect environment for experiments that need to escape the constant bombardment of cosmic radiation\, which can interfere with the detection of rare physics events. Built in collaboration with the University of Michigan\, the LUX-Zeplin is the world’s most sensitive dark matter experiment. SURF also hosts experiments in biology\, geology and engineering.\n\nGina Gibson is an internationally exhibiting artist and professor of Graphic Design at Black Hills State University. In 2019\, Gibson became the first artist in residence at the Sanford Underground Research Facility. Gibson's work celebrates the search deep below the surface for beauty in the old and new\, the light and dark\, and the known and unknown.\n\nUN/EARTH was developed in collaboration with the U-M Department of Physics\, the Sanford Underground Research Facility and Black Hills State University.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Envision: The Michigan Artist Initiative 2023
DESCRIPTION:Organized by Stamps Gallery at the University of Michigan\, Envision: The Michigan Artist Initiative 2023 is an exhibition and awards program designed to support the development of contemporary artists living and working in Michigan. In its second iteration\, the program recognizes the creativity\, rigor\, and innovation of Michigan-based artists and collaboratives — and honors their role in inspiring the next generations of artists in our state. This initiative showcases the excellence and artistic merit of contemporary art practices in Michigan.\nIn the of fall of 2022\, Stamps Gallery announced an open call for artwork\, inviting emerging and mid-career contemporary artists from Michigan working in all types of media to apply. We received 309 applications\, a record number for the program. \n A shortlist of three artists were selected by a prominent national panel of jurors: Neil A. Barclay\, President &amp\; CEO of Charles Wright Museum of African American Art\, Shannon Rae Stratton\, Executive Director of Ox-Bow School of Art and Artists&#039\; Residency\, and Nayda Collazo-Llorens\, award-winning artist and winner of the inaugural Envision: Michigan Artist Initiative Award (2020-2021). \n \nMeet the shortlisted finalist artists for Envision: The Michigan Artist Initiative 2023:\nBakpak Durden is a “self-taught” multi-hyphenate antidisciplinary artist and alchemist. Pulling from various figurative art techniques\, including hyperrealism\, baroque\, and veristic surrealism\, Durden employs a wide range of mediums—oil and acrylic paint\, graphite\, film photography\, and the written word—to construct their hyper-surrealistic and conceptual works of art. Parisa Ghaderi is a visual artist\, curator\, educator\, and filmmaker. She earned her BA in Visual Communications from Art &amp\; Architecture University (Tehran\, Iran) and her MFA at Stamps School in 2014. She works across different media. She has made four short films and two animations and recently directed a performance about the border situation in the U.S. for Iranian immigrants. Levon Kafafian is a Detroit-based Armenian-American weaver working the narrative threads of costume\, artifact\, ritual\, and installation into stories about possible worlds and potential futures. They infuse their stories and cloth with future ancestral practice\, hybridity\, and magic. \nDurden\, Ghaderi\, and Kafafian will present their work at Stamps Gallery from June 1-July 29\, 2023. They will receive financial\, logistical and curatorial support from the professional staff at Stamps Gallery. \nThe jury will select a winner\, who will be announced at the award ceremony on June 29\, 2023. The winning artist will be awarded a $5\,000 cash prize. \nIf you have further questions\, please contact stamps-gallery@umich.edu.
