SUMMARY:Exhibition:Featured Exhibits
DESCRIPTION:Stop by the Collections Case display in the museum’s main atrium\, behind the mastodons\, to see Nature’s Pharmacy.\n\nAugust 2023–July 2024\n\nPlants and fungi play a vital role in medicine due to the diversity of chemical defense mechanisms they evolved to safeguard them against pathogens\, herbivores\, and competitors. From its inception\, the U-M Herbarium has cataloged and described plants—both poisonous and beneficial to human health—and still serves that role today. See specimens of these plant and fungal “friends” and “foes” from the U-M Herbarium collection and learn about how the collection is used for drug discovery today.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Featured Exhibits
DESCRIPTION:Stop by the Student Showcase display in the museum’s main atrium\, behind the mastodons\, to see Molecules of Life.\n\nAugust 2023–July 2024\n\nMolecules of Life (Student Showcase)\nDiscover the connection between form and function as you explore the molecular building blocks of life. In the realm of biological macromolecules such as proteins and nucleic acids\, form determines function\, so visualizing the three-dimensional structures of molecules is key in researching the ‘tiny’ macromolecules that perform vital functions in our cells. In Biophysics 421\, under the guidance of Markos Koutmos\, Assistant Professor of Biophysics & Chemistry\, and Liz Tidwell\, PhD candidate in Biophysics\, students created models with digital modeling software and brought them to life via 3D printing. This exhibit showcases the 3D printed molecules\, scaled up to better reveal the structures that inform\, make\, break\, modify\, and move within the body.

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:Dopamine Dressing
DESCRIPTION:Discover Delight in the Decadence\n \nIn this exhibition\, YehRim Lee positions colorful clay and metal sculptures on a complex structure of her own design to create a joyful\, immersive environment. Inspired by the fashion trend of the same name\, Dopamine Dressing leans into the idea that bright colors and surprising textures can create happiness by activating chemicals in the brain. Clothing designers used this concept to battle the doldrums of the pandemic and here\, artist YehRim Lee asks visitors to see how vibrancy\, materiality\, and expressive movement in art can have the same effect. \n \nShe repeatedly refires her clay sculptures\, introducing a new glaze each time until the surfaces begin to warp and crack\, approaching collapse\, suggesting that the dopamine bursts that come from sensual pleasure or excessive consumption perhaps provide only temporary relief from the cares of the world.\n\nLead support for this exhibition is provided by the William C. Weese\, M.D. Endowment for Ceramic Arts\, the U–M Office of the Provost\, and the Nam Center for Korean Studies. Additional generous support is provided by the U-M Department of History of Art and the U-M Department of Asian Languages and Cultures.\n

DESCRIPTION:Our dear friend Laura Jean Hoffman\, assistant dean for admissions\, passed away suddenly on Thursday\, May 25\, 2023.\n\nAll are invited to join the SMTD community for a Memorial Service and Reception in celebration of Laura’s life and achievements.\n\nLaura’s legacy will be felt for generations. She began her tenure in the Office of Admissions at what was then the School of Music in 1983. In her 40 years of service\, she helped thousands of students and their families through the admissions process\, and\, through her work\, helped to shape our school in a powerfully positive way. She was a national leader in the admissions field\, and an ardent champion of SMTD\, the University of Michigan\, and the performing arts. She was admired and beloved by her colleagues here and around the nation and will be so very missed by all who knew her.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:Hear Me Now: The Black Potters of Old Edgefield\, South Carolina — Exhibition Tour with Jason Young
DESCRIPTION:Click here to register: http://events.constantcontact.com/register/event?llr=uhlrs88ab&oeidk=a07ejw9z5vn118a949b.\n \nJoin exhibition co-curator and U-M Associate Professor of History Jason Young for an exploration of the dynamic exhibition Hear Me Now: The Black Potters of Old Edgefield\, South Carolina. Hear Me Now centers around the complicated history and continuing legacy of an African American ceramic tradition that emerged out of the plantation economies of Edgefield\, South Carolina. As an artistic tradition rooted in the history of American slavery\, the exhibition highlights the tangled histories of race\, slavery and art in this country. The exhibition features historic work including monumental storage jars by the enslaved and literate potter and poet Dave\, later recorded as David Drake as well as leading contemporary Black artists who have responded to or whose practice resonates with the Edgefield story. Established figures like Theaster Gates and Simone Leigh\, as well as younger\, emerging artists like Adebunmi Gbadebo\, Woody De Othello\, and Robert Pruitt\, have contributed to the show. Working primarily in clay\, these artists respond to the legacy of the Edgefield potters and consider the resonance of this history for audiences today.\n\nHear Me Now is organized by The Metropolitan Museum of Art and the Museum of Fine Arts\, Boston\, with support from the Terra Foundation for American Art and the Henry Luce Foundation.\n\nLead support for UMMA's presentation of the exhibition is provided by Michigan Engineering\, the U-M Office of the Provost\, the U-M Office of the President\, the Americana Foundation\, the U-M College of Literature\, Science\, and the Arts\, the U-M Inclusive History Project\, and Michigan Humanities. Additional generous support is provided by Larry and Brenda Thompson and Melissa Kaish and Jonathan Dorfman. \n\n
