SUMMARY:Exhibition:Behind the Curve: Rainbows and the Science and Culture of Color
DESCRIPTION:We have many significant books from the history of our understanding of rainbows and color theory\, from the writings of scholar Ḥasan Ibn al-Haytham to Isaac Newton’s 1704 Opticks. Rainbows appear across the spectrum of our collections\, and this exhibit includes a handwritten illuminated manuscript\, practical color manuals of the industrial age\, contemporary artists’ and children’s books\, and more from our vast holdings. \n\nRainbows have captivated people for all of recorded history. It’s hard not to think of them as physical objects\, but they are really just distorted images of the sun\, positioned around the viewer’s head. They require someone to perceive them to exist\, and thus have much in common with colors and color theory in general. And\, like colors\, they are about relationships: of one color next to another\, and of colors and the people who see them. The rainbow has had many different cultural interpretations over the years\, and most recently has become synonymous with gay pride\, appearing all over each June.\n\nHatcher Gallery Exhibit Room Hours:\nSunday\, 2-8pm\nMonday-Thursday\, 9am-8pm\nFriday\, 9am-4pm\nSaturday\, 11am-5pm

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Carlo Vitale Exhibition
DESCRIPTION:Carlo Vitale is a distinguished Michigan-based artist whose vibrant contributions to the Detroit art scene have flourished since the 1970s. A native of Detroit\, Vitale's work is celebrated as part of the second generation of the Cass Corridor Art Movement\, Detroit’s first avante garde. His art draws inspiration from the sweeping vistas of farmland seen from above\, the intricate patterns of quilt-making\, the dynamic energy of cityscapes\, and the rich tapestry of daily life. Vitale eloquently characterizes his mesmerizing oil paintings and prints as “kinetic\, metaphysical abstractions\,” inviting viewers to engage with the depth and vitality of his creative vision.\n\nVitale received his Bachelor of Fine Arts and Masters of Fine Arts from Wayne State University in Detroit.  His work can be found in many collections including The Whitney Museum of Fine Art in New York\, The Detroit Institute of Art\, Cranbrook Art Museum\, Wayne State University Collection\, University of Michigan Museum of Art and corporate\, hospital\, and private collections throughout the country.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:Exploring Interpretable Latent Structure in Modern Data by Bayesian Modeling: Theory and Applications
DESCRIPTION:The increasing complexity of modern data necessitates flexible statistical approaches capable of uncovering various latent structures\, often intricately linked to population heterogeneity. This dissertation explores probabilistic models\, particularly latent variable models and hierarchical models\, within a Bayesian framework across various settings. It highlights their effectiveness in extracting meaningful patterns and representations from data\, while also deepening our theoretical and computational understanding of these models.\n\nThe first chapter develops models and theoretical insights for hierarchical topic models\, characterized by latent tree-structured topic hierarchies that yield a rich structure formed by multiple topic polytopes sharing faces. The second chapter builds on these geometric insights\, extending them to continuous convolutional kernels. In particular\, it sheds light on identifiability in general nonparametric mixtures of such distributions\, where each component is nearly supported on a low-dimensional affine subspace. The third chapter revisits topic models from a different angle\, exploring connections between Latent Dirichlet Allocation and mixtures of product multinomial models via tensor decomposition of the Dirichlet distribution. The fourth chapter examines general hierarchical models in grouped-data settings and extends strong identifiability theory from mixture models to these settings\, establishing inverse bounds tailored to specific asymptotic regimes. The fifth chapter develops a nonparametric spatio-temporal model for dynamic velocity fields\, with an emphasis on scalable inference. Finally\, the last chapter addresses Bayesian methods in sequential decision-making and provides regret guarantees for Thompson sampling in sparse linear contextual bandit problems by analyzing the posterior under dynamic environments.\n\nA recurring theme of this dissertation is the asymptotic analysis of the posterior distribution of model parameters. Parameter learning is significantly more challenging than density estimation for latent variable models\, often with complex dependencies across components. Nevertheless\, such analysis enhances interpretability and informs the performance of downstream tasks that incorporate these models. It also reveals structural properties that can be leveraged for efficient inference. Overall\, this dissertation bridges theoretical and practical aspects of Bayesian modeling and emphasizes its potential to extract interpretable structures from complex datasets.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Redefining the Crown
DESCRIPTION:In Winter 2025\, the Lane Hall exhibit space will feature a portraiture series titled Redefining the Crown showcasing the powerful stories of six Black breast cancer survivors.\n\nBased on a photo essay by U-M Faculty Versha Pleasant (MD/MPH) and Ava Purkiss (PhD) in Medicine at Michigan\, this exhibition examines the cultural and personal significance of hair within Black communities\, particularly through the lens of breast cancer treatment and recovery. The term \"crown\" is deeply symbolic in Black culture\, signifying beauty\, strength\, and identity. The featured photo essay by photographer Tafari Stevenson-Howard captures the intimate journeys of Ann Chatman\, Tanisha Kennedy\, Felecia McDaniel\, Shantell Elaine McCoy\, Tamara Lynn Myles\, and Veleria Banks.\n\nThrough their narratives and portraits\, the exhibit examines how these women have navigated the profound impact of hair loss caused by chemotherapy\, inviting the audience to witness their stories with radical empathy. It explores the cultural pride and personal identity intricately tied to their hair\, and how these elements are redefined amidst their battles with breast cancer.\n\nThe exhibit will be on view from January 21\, 2025 to August 8\, 2025. This exhibition is presented with support from IRWG\, the Department of Women's and Gender Studies\, and Michigan Medicine. \n\nLocated on the first floor of Lane Hall (204 S. State Street)\, the Exhibit Space is free and open to the public\, M-F\, 9am-4pm.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Unsettling Histories: Legacies of Slavery and Colonialism
DESCRIPTION:Organized as a response to the Museum’s recent acquisition of Titus Kaphar’s Flay (James Madison)\, this upcoming reinstallation of one of our most prominent gallery spaces forces us to grapple with our collection of European and American art\, 1650-1850.\n \nIn recent times\, growing public awareness of the continued reverberations of the legacy of slavery and colonization has challenged museums to examine the uncomfortable histories contained in our collections\, and challenged the public to probe the choices we make about those stories. Choices about which artists you see in our galleries\, choices about what relevant facts we share about the works\, and choices about what - out of an infinite number of options - we don’t say about them.\n \nPieces in this exhibition were made at a time when the world came to be shaped by the ideologies of colonial expansion and Western domination. And yet\, that history and the stories of those marginalized do not readily appear in the still lives and portraits on display here. By grappling with what is visible and what remains hidden\, we are forced to examine whose stories and histories are prioritized and why.  \n \nIn this online exhibition\, you can explore our efforts to deeply question the Museum’s collection and our own past complicity in favoring colonial voices. In the Museum gallery\, which will open in early 2021\, you’ll be able to experience the changes we’re making to the physical space to highlight a more honest version of European and American history. \n \nBy challenging our own practice\, and continuing to add to what we know and what we write about the works we display\, UMMA tells a more complex and more complete story of this nation - one that unsettles\, and fails to settle for\, simple narratives. \n \n“Invisible things are not necessarily ‘not there’.... Certain absences are so stressed\, so ornate\, so planned\, they call attention to themselves\; arrest us with intentionality and purpose\, like neighborhoods that are defined by the population held away from them.” \n \n— Toni Morrison\n\nLead support for Unsettling Histories: Legacies of Slavery and Colonialism is provided by the University of Michigan Office of the Provost\, the U-M Arts Initiative\, and the Susan and Richard Gutow Endowed Fund.\n

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:New Electron-Transfer Concepts in Organic Synthesis
DESCRIPTION:The Nacsa Group uses electron transfer techniques to address challenges in organic synthesis. Our lab works in two main areas. The first uses electrochemistry to develop new approaches for dehydration reactions\, such as the synthesis of amides and esters from carboxylic acids\, with an emphasis on catalysis. Dehydrative transformations are workhorse operations in pharmaceutical R&D\, but owing to the wasteful reagents overwhelmingly used to accomplish them\, industry has long called for methods that avoid these reagents. We have identified new electrochemical strategies for the substitution of carboxylic acids that meet these demands. Our second program leverages radical-mediated migration events\, usually initiated by photoinduced electron transfer\, as key design elements in complexity-generating transformations. We have shown that olefin difunctionalizations underpinned by this approach can access product classes and achieve stereoselectivities that have otherwise proven challenging or impossible. More recently\, we have discovered a novel and enabling methods for metal-free amination of aromatics from sulfonamides.

SUMMARY:Presentation:Mind Matters: Mood and Art
DESCRIPTION:Join the Heinz C. Prechter Bipolar Research Program on Tuesday\, May 20th from 6:00-7:00 PM ET for the webinar Mind Matters: Mood and Art\n\nThis webinar will feature visiting scholar and keynote speaker\, Catarina Castela\, Ph.D. She will speak about her research\, \"Monitoring mood variation in bipolar disorder: An interdisciplinary study on the relationship between mood and formal art elements.\" \n\nCatarina is a Ph.D. student at Curtin University in Perth\, Western Australia. She has over 20 years of experience as a graphic designer\, working across national and international projects. In 2016\, she completed a master's degree at Curtin University\, exploring the cognitive and psychological underpinnings of aesthetic preference. Catarina's Ph.D. research is grounded in lived experience of bipolar disorder. It investigates the relationship between bipolar disorder and creative expression\, examining how changes in visual elements within drawings\, such as line quality\, color use\, and composition\, may reflect underlying psychological states to reveal patterns in mood fluctuation and symptom severity. Catarina aims to develop and validate a preliminary art-based Mood Monitoring Method (MMMET) by combining personal reflection with a structured analysis of drawings through a formative case series study followed by a large-scale longitudinal study. By translating visual elements into measurable data\, her research aims to offer a fresh perspective on the clinical value of art by highlighting its potential to inform tailored treatment strategies and support long-term symptom management.
