In 2022\, she opened her first one-woman show at the prominent Sebastian Gladstone Gallery. Most recently\, her work has been chosen for inclusion as part of L.A.’s Hammer Museum Biennial\, which runs concurrently with her exhibition Harbingers of Dreams in the Institute for the Humanities Gallery.\n\nTolliver refers to her process as “creative recycling”: forging found and thrifted materials\, and repurposing them. These frenetic bundles of coils\, adornments\, wires\, and loose ends express the artist’s feelings\, perspectives\, and everyday way of living.\n\nEarlier works of the artist are on a smaller scale and doll-like. They are intimate\, imaginative references to Tolliver’s own girlhood in a world lacking adequate or authentic representations of Black life.\n\nTolliver’s more recent figurative assemblages are life-size\, larger-than-life\, looming. They command space and celebrate it. There is an inherent connection between these sculptures and the long-established history of African American yard art\, where plants\, statuary\, and artistic creations communicate themes of personal space\, freedom of expression\, and dreams of independence. Tolliver’s bold visual choices and material combinations are refusals of outside value judgments and hierarchies.\n\nWhen visiting artist Teresa Tolliver's home studio\, one expects the figures will spring to life\, otherworldly. They seem to gather and congregate. There are no distractions from the outside\, save the light coming through the window. Through subtle details like molding\, furniture\, and drawers inspired by Tolliver’s own domestic space\, Harbingers of Dreams attempts to capture the resplendent and spiritual nature of such a visit\, with the opportunity to sit among the artist’s creations.\n\nTolliver’s figurative sculptures appear as embodiments of the city of L.A. and its diverse communities and neighborhoods. They are assemblages of disparate influences\, esthetics\, and materials: prefab\, handmade\, urban\, nostalgic\, opulent\, functional\, garish\, and celestial. A visual cacophony of colors\, influences\, designs\, and forms\, each figure beckons us towards futures in the making.\n\nTeresa Tolliver is the Paula and Edwin Sidman Fellow in the Arts at the Institute for the Humanities. This event is part of the LSA's fall 2023 Arts & Resistance theme semester.

It centers on the titular “manga map”\, a rare Japanese travel map of Japan (ca. 1934) that is densely packed with manga illustrations detailing local folklore\, history\, architecture\, flora/fauna\, and more. The exhibit also includes works of Japanese art and cartography in order to consider the dichotomy between artistry and geographic depiction\, and how that plays with the definition of a “map.”\n\nAlongside the exhibit\, the manga map is also part of a new digital humanities preservation project at the library using the online crowd-sourcing platform Zooniverse\, where the map will be transcribed/translated and made into a fully interactive digital map. More information is available at the exhibit.\n\nBoth the exhibit and the Zooniverse project were created as a summer internship capstone project by Joel Liesenberg\, a dual-degree master’s student in International and Regional Studies focusing in Japanese studies and the School of Information focusing in digital curation.

Death threats and assassinations\, politically motivated sectarian violence\, rampant corruption\, and de-Ba’athification policies only further destabilized an educational system already heaving under the devastation of wars\, authoritarian regimes\, and harsh economic sanctions.\n\nThis exhibit invites solidarity with the academics targeted\, but also deeper connection with their experiences and the richness of Iraqi academic life through their written legacies and the testimonies of surviving academics\, many of whom were driven into exile.\n\nThis exhibit in the north lobby is available during Hatcher Library hours (https://myumi.ch/p75dd).\n\nA companion online exhibit\, Tracing Iraqi Artists: From Shadow to Light (https://myumi.ch/n7xre)\, explores modern Iraqi struggle and resistance through contemporary visual art and connection to Iraqi artists and educators. The curators of the online exhibit\, 2023 Michigan Library Scholars Zainab Hakim and Serena Safawi\, hope to center surviving Iraqi artists as they explore their national and artistic identities and respond to the cycles of violence caused by the Iran-Iraq war\, sanctions\, and occupation.

In the years immediately preceding the dam’s construction\, the American University in Cairo directed a large-scale project of salvage anthropology with funding from the Ford Foundation. \n\nThis endeavor yielded hundreds of photographs of al-nuba al-qadima or “Old Nubia” the term affectionately used by community members. Over the past sixty years\, Nubians have used these images to cultivate a collective memory of a lost homeland. From Aswan to Alexandria and beyond\, community members are salvaging their own stories from this anthropological archive\, reshaping it as a sentimental terrain of solidarity across time\, space\, and circumstance. \n\nThis selection of photographs includes persons\, places\, and practices as well as glimpses of the presence of the photographer and researchers. Both online and offline\, Egyptian Nubians continue to share and re-mediate these photos as they recall their historical displacement and revitalize their heritage for future generations.\n\nThe exhibit is curated by Yasmin Moll\, assistant professor of anthropology\, and coordinated by Nesrien Hamid\, doctoral student in anthropology\, with funding from the University of Michigan's Humanities Collaboratory.\n\nFor a deeper dive\, visit the companion exhibit\, Narrating Nubia\, at the Duderstadt Center on North Campus. It delves into the archaeological\, anthropological\, and community narratives of both ancient and modern-day Nubia spanning Egypt and Sudan.

Guardian Passage: The Power of Ukrainian Cultural Memory in the Face of War DESCRIPTION:*Presented in association with UMS*.\n\nIn Guardian Passage\, artists Irina Bondarenko and Katya Lisova employ the tools and imagery of traditional Ukrainian art forms to face down the existential threat brought about by Russia’s war on Ukraine. Bondarenko’s installation forms a causeway for visitors to encounter Ukrainian poetry and the art form of motanka dolls in a newly imagined configuration. Motanka are guardian symbols assembled from the clothes of deceased ancestors. Bondarenko’s ceramics illustrate motanka in situations responding to the war\; each graphic is accompanied by a poem or a song. These ceramics act as lifeboats\, which ferry the Ukrainian resistance through the flood waters of destruction. Lisova’s series of tapestries explore the power of cultural memory to grow in times of war. Traditional embroidery explodes on the surface of photo collage\, where images of the past and present collide on a single surface. Like a lifeline\, red thread connects these projects\, weaving through clay and fabric\, bringing tradition to bear on new significances and the cultural will to survive. This exhibition is part of the LSA theme semester on “Arts and Resistance.”\n\nIrina Bondarenko is an emerging ceramic artist\, a native of Ukraine\, and a biostatistician at the University of Michigan. Irina has been with the University of Michigan Biostatistics Department for more than 20 years. and published over 50 peer-reviewed articles. Along with her career at the School of Public Health\, for the last 10 years Irina has been pursuing her interest in ceramics. Her work was featured in over a dozen national shows\, the 24th San Angelo National Ceramic Competition\, and the “Strictly Functional Pottery National Show” in 2021 and 2022\, and\, most recently\, the Regional Biennial Juried Sculpture Exhibition at Marshall Fredericks Sculpture Museum.\n\nArtist website: https://www.ibondceramics.com/\n\nKatya Lisova is an artist\, designer\, and art historian. Born in Kyiv\, she is a graduate of the Institute of Decorative and Applied Arts and Design named after Mykhailo Boichuk (2009) and the National Academy of Cultural and Artistic Leaders (2018). Since 2019 she has been teaching at the Kyiv State Academy of Decorative and Applied Arts and Design named after Mykhailo Boichuk. Her work is in the field of artistic textiles and digital graphics.

Throughout the European Renaissance (1300-1700)\, many book illustrations were exclusively ornamental\, while others focused on enhancing the meaning of the text. However\, as the pages on display attest\, all these illustrations share a common ground: they reveal the aesthetic and intellectual fashions first proposed by Italian artists of the 1400s\, who were strongly committed to the recovery of the past of classical antiquity.\n\nThe word “Illumination\,” from the Latin illuminare\, “to enlighten or to illuminate\,” refers to the embellishment of a manuscript or early printed book with luminous colors\, notably gold and silver. This illumination was prominent in the frontispiece\, or first page of text\, which included the decoration of its borders and initial letter\, and even miniatures\, that is\, scenes with an independent narrative. With the introduction of movable-type printing in 1454\, these illuminations would be gradually replaced by woodcuts\, which were printed from a woodblock that had been cut by knife along the grain of the wood.\n\nAvailable during Hatcher Gallery Exhibit Room hours (https://myumi.ch/2m7d4).\n\nJoin us on September 13 for a talk by Pablo Alvarez\, curator of the exhibit.

DESCRIPTION:Come explore the intricate and interlocking world of Sarah Buckius’ “!!!techn010ffspring!!!” where feminist art meets science and the history of invention. On view at Lane Hall as part of U-M Arts Initiative’s themed semester on Arts & Resistance\, “!!!techn010ffspring!!!” critiques the patriarchal paradigms of the STEM field by highlighting the history of women inventors. This exhibition brings conceptual invention in fine art and performance to the disciplines of information technology\, robotics\, and engineering. Buckius creates “technoffsprings”: complex machines that weave together the history of inventions related to the gendered labor of women\, especially regarding women’s social roles as caregivers and subjects of care themselves. \nTrained as an engineer and an artist\, Buckius’ machines are intentionally complex\, layered\, and illogical or absurdly logical. In the nature of women’s caregiving\, they teeter between order and chaos. Her “digital tinkerings” tell epic tales of motherhood\, technology\, female bodies\, and commerce—both personal and externalized through women’s inventions and early forays that bridged caregiving and commerce. Buckius' work proposes improvisation as a form of absurdist resistance to\, and alternative to\, patriarchal\, capitalist\, production-based\, and seemingly rational\, useful\, logical systems. \n“!!!techn010ffspring!!!” is open for viewing M-F\, 9am-4pm or by appointment. University of Michigan instructors can email LaneHallExhibits@umich.edu to request a group tour or schedule a class visit.\nThis project was made possible by a grant from the Arts Initiative at the University of Michigan and co-sponsored by U-M’s Department of Women’s and Gender Studies and the Institute for Research on Women and Gender with support from the Santa Cruz County Arts Council.

Marcus Seminar in Applied Microeconomics: Elasticity and Curvature of Discrete Choice Demand Models DESCRIPTION:We explore the determinants of demand curvature and pass-through in aggregate\, unit-demand\, discrete choice mixed logit models. Accurate pass-through estimates are at the heart of analyses of mergers\, taxation\, tariffs\, cost shocks\, and exchange rates when firms have market power. To overcome the inherent curvature restrictions in multinomial logit models\, we highlight the need to incorporate heterogeneity in both price responsiveness and preferences for product characteristics. A flexible and parsimonious specification of preference heterogeneity expands the feasible range of elasticity-curvature pairs up to those of the constant elasticity of substitution (CES) demand. We demonstrate empirically significant differences in estimated elasticity and curvature compared to simpler models and highlight their economic relevance in the context of price discrimination.\n\n\nThis talk is presented by the Applied Microeconomics/Industrial Organization Seminar\, sponsored by the Department of Economics with generous gifts given through the Jean Coven Speakers Fund in Economics and the Economics Strategic Fund. \n\nThis talk is presented by the Public Finance Seminar\, sponsored in part by the Department of Economics with generous gifts given through the Elizalde-Winikates Family Fund in Economics and the Economics Strategic Fund.

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.

DESCRIPTION:Abstract: To match closely on a propensity\, prognostic or other index score is harder than it would appear. Nearest-neighbor matching may closely align subjects on an estimate of the score\, particularly when permitted to exclude subjects without nearby counterparts. Yet even after matching within strict tolerances\, on a well-specified and efficiently estimated index\, paired differences on actual scores can be surprisingly large. A first contribution of this research is to marshall evidence that univariate propensity score matching typically does leave large discrepancies on an underlying true score\, regardless of how closely one matches on estimated scores. Even the luxury (a) of well-behaved (sub-gaussian) covariates that are (b) of moderate dimension (d=o(√n)) does not in itself address the problem. Nor does (c) strict overlap between intervention and control groups (all propensities within [a\,b] ⊆ (0\,1))\, or matching in observance of caliper restrictions as suggested in extant literature. These conclusions are supported by insights from high-dimensional probability\, and illustrated with health policy examples.\n\nThere's good news as well. When (a) and (b) are satisfied\, estimation errors of the scores tend uniformly to zero\, having sizes that are themselves estimable and can be summarized with a single number. That number in turn suggests a new caliper criterion that rejects few or no pairings that are close on the underlying score\, yet is restrictive enough to cause index differences within the *matched* sample to tend uniformly to 0. None of (a)-(c) is required for this\, although all will be true of the matched sample if the matching procedure has been governed by a caliper of the proposed type. The presentation will focus on propensity scores\, but similar considerations apply to prognostic scores\, principal scores and predictive mean matching.

The exhibition examines the Amistad Dam in Del Rio\, the largest dam in Rio Grande that is jointly managed by the United States and Mexico and other contested sites in the region to unravel layered histories\, connections\, and tensions present in West Texas through film\, sculpture\, installation\, collage\, and drawing. \nThe experimental documentary film Teaching of the Hands is the center point of the exhibition - as it combines oral histories\, reenactments\, and archival footage to narrate a complex history of colonization\, migration\, and ecological precarity\, Told from the perspective of Juan Mancias\, Chairman of the Carrizo Comecrudo Tribe of Texas\, scenes from the present day are woven together with those from 4\,000 years in the past to investigate the transformation of Somi Se’k* by way of industry\, infrastructure\, and private property. \nEmerging from the research to create the film\, the exhibition includes an immersive installation of surveying flags and tools\, series of drawings and collages\, and a collection of original watercolors from the 1930s by artists and amateur archaeologists Forrest and Lula Kirkland that depict the ancient rock art of the Lower Pecos\,that expand on concepts in The Teachings of the Hands. The watercolors\, rarely seen plein air paintings\, are on loan from the Texas Archaeological Research Laboratory at the University of Texas\, and document the original forms and vibrant colors of murals that were still visible in the 1930s before flooding\, erosion\, and human interaction damaged or destroyed them. This exhibition has been shown in various iterations at Ballroom Marfa\, the University of Texas at Austin\, the Rubin Center for the Visual Arts\, the Museum of Modern Art in New York and University of California\, Santa Barbara\, and will be shown in Michigan and the midwest for the first time. The Blessings of the Mystery brings together an expansive body of work that sheds light on vital histories\, living memories and Indigenous knowledge-systems embedded within the land well before the colonial boundaries between Mexico and the US were established - advocating for environmental justice and recognition of Indigenous rights and cosmologies.

When COVID took Tina’s life\, Taylor started ordering identical versions of their childhood games and toys on eBay. As she assembled these objects\, Taylor recalled a memory of climbing with Tina through the skeletal frameworks of unfinished houses in the 1970s. Late at night\, the girls would pick their way through floorless rooms and speculate about their future inhabitants. In this spirit of imaginative experimentation\, Taylor began taking apart her eBay acquisitions. Gathering\, breaking\, sawing\, splicing\, painting\, gluing\, layering\, and reassembling these toys became\, for her\, a way to probe the complicated nature of a lost friendship and to explore the multidimensional nature of grief. Ultimately\, Taylor built the framework of an unfinished house to evoke those she once explored with Tina. Taylor describes the house as a “container for grief.” \n\nSeptember 28 - October 27 \nOpening & Reception: September 28\, 1-3pm \nGalleryDAAS \n\nAbout this series of events: \nArt & Resistance Fall 2023 Theme Semester Programming \nSponsored by Arts Initiative\, UMMA\, American Culture\, Latina/o Studies\, the Department of Film\, Television and Media & the Museum Studies Program \nPresented by Charlotte Juergens\, 2nd year Ph.D. student in American Culture \nhttp://bit.ly/UMafterthought UID:112261-21828697@events.umich.edu URL:https://events.umich.edu/event/112261 CLASS:PUBLIC STATUS:CONFIRMED CATEGORIES:american culture,Art,arts,arts at michigan,Arts Initiative,Culture,Department Of American Culture,Exhibition,Film,food,Free,Graduate,In Person,Latina/o Studies,Media,Museum,UMMA LOCATION:Haven Hall - galleryDAAS CONTACT: END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20231028T123137 DTSTART;TZID=America/Detroit:20231013T130000 DTEND;TZID=America/Detroit:20231013T150000 SUMMARY:Careers / Jobs:How Accountants Can Save the World DESCRIPTION:Learn about the many compelling and rewarding opportunities you can experience with a career in accounting.

No pre-registration required. .\n \nOver the past three years\, COVID-19 has taken the lives of more than one million Americans. Nearly one-fifth of us knew someone among them. All of us have been impacted. In a culture that avoids talk of death and puts grief on a timeline\, what does our mourning look like? How will we manage the voids the pandemic has created? \n \nCurrently in production\, Afterthought: Remembering a Pandemic is a documentary feature about COVID memorials and the people who build them. It centers on two projects: a community memorial in Detroit involving thousands of participants\, and one artist’s personal memorial in New York commemorating the loss of a friend. In documenting these stories\, Afterthought memorializes individuals lost and communities changed by the pandemic and asks universal questions about shared trauma\, memory\, and healing.   Join the filmmakers for a free screening of clips from the film-in-progress\, followed by conversation.\n\nHosted by UMMA and co-sponsored by Arts Initiative\, UMMA\, American Culture\, Latina/o Studies & the Museum Studies Program. \n\nThe Arts & Resistance Theme Semester\, organized by UMMA and the U-M Arts Initiative\, is generously supported by the U-M Office of the Provost\, the U-M College of Literature\, Science\, and the Arts\, Lizzie and Jonathan Tisch\, and Erica Gervais Pappendick and Ted Pappendick.

Whilst there are numerous proof of concept materials and devices\, rigorous predictive models of deformation have not been well-established or widely adopted. In this presentation\, we discuss programming complex three-dimensional deformations of a soft material by controlling the anisotropy and mode of electric field activation. The programming is achieved by patterning contractile units and selectively activating spatial regions. The constitutive model is derived within a continuum mechanics framework using an invariant-based formulation. Computational implementation allows us to simulate the complex shape response and reveals various intricate patterns when activated by electric field. This talk also discusses active anisotropy in biological tissue\, namely muscle. The numerical simulations are meant to inspire new engineering materials and introduce a framework for design when considering soft stimuli-responsive materials with intrinsic anisotropy.\n\n[Contact: S.

Yet both our understanding of the conditions that lead to large eruptions and the long-term impacts of these events are limited. I will explore ways in which re-examination of the c.7700 yr B.P. eruption of Mount Mazama\, which produced Crater Lake\, Oregon\, can provide insight into both questions. Questions of eruption onset are addressed by combining field studies\, petrologic and textural analysis\; eruption impacts are addressed by field studies\, modelling of ash transport and deposition\, and aggregation of studies that address impacts on global climate\, regional landscape evolution\, vegetation studies and human migration.

Women and the ancient (Greek) economy DESCRIPTION:Where are the women in the study of ancient economies? \nTheir relative invisibility can only be partially explained by the surviving sources given that the last 50 years have seen a great deal of work on women and gender in other fields of ancient history. Routinely in accounts of ancient economies women’s experience is either ignored or viewed in limited terms and economic actors are conceptualized as being male by default. This talk argues that through the employment of a feminist theoretical framework\, we can suggest new ways to consider multiple aspects of ancient economies.\n\nClaire Taylor is John W. & Jeanne M.

\n\n“This American classic explores alternatives that might spring from the demented terrain of the California landscape. Sons of a desert-dwelling alcoholic and a suburban wanderer clash over a film script. Austin\, the achiever\, is working on a script he has sold to producer Saul Kimmer when Lee\, a demented petty thief\, drops in. He pitches his own idea for a movie to Kimmer\, who then wants Austin to junk his bleak\, modern love story and write Lee's trashy Western tale.” - Concord Theatricals\n UID:113609-21831218@events.umich.edu URL:https://events.umich.edu/event/113609 CLASS:PUBLIC STATUS:CONFIRMED CATEGORIES:Free,In Person,North Campus,Storytelling,Theater LOCATION:Walgreen Drama Center CONTACT: END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20230628T090816 DTSTART;TZID=America/Detroit:20231013T200000 SUMMARY:Performance:Brahms Symphony No. 4 DESCRIPTION:Pre-concert talk at 7 PM\n\nJP Jofre\, bandoneon\nJoshua Gersen\, guest conductor\n\nAngélica NEGRÓN En otra noche\, en otro mundo (“On Another Night\, In Another World”)\nJP JOFRE Concerto for Cello & Bandoneon\nJohannes BRAHMS Symphony No. 4\n\nGRAMMY Award-nominated composer and bandoneon player JP Jofre stars in this imaginative juxtaposition of contemporary and classic influences.

Frank Loesser's brassy\, immortal score – featuring “Adelaide’s Lament” and the classic “Luck Be a Lady” – makes *Guys and Dolls* a true crowd pleaser. \n\nGambler Nathan Detroit tries to find the cash to set up the biggest craps game in town while the authorities breathe down his neck\; meanwhile\, his girlfriend\, nightclub performer Adelaide\, laments that they've been engaged for fourteen years. Nathan hatches a plan to get the dough from a bet with fellow gambler Sky Masterson\, and Sky ends up chasing the straight-laced missionary\, Sarah Brown\, as a result. *Guys and Dolls* takes us from the heart of Times Square to the cafes of Havana and even into the sewers of New York City\, but eventually everyone ends up right where they belong. \n\nMusic & lyrics by Frank Loesser\nBook by Abe Burrows & Jo Swerling\nBased on a story and characters by Damon Runyon\nDirected by Vincent J. Cardinal\nMusic direction by Jason DeBord\n\nFUN FACTS: Considered by many to be the perfect musical comedy\, *Guys and Dolls* ran for 1\,200 performances after it opened on Broadway in 1950. It received nearly unanimous positive reviews from critics and won a bevy of awards\, including Tony Awards\, Drama Desks\, and Oliviers.
