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: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.

Sara has been consistently building her visual vocabulary and we are excited to see where she will go next.” \nEnvision: The 2025 Michigan Artist Initiative is curated by Srimoyee Mitra with the assistance of Joe Rohrer.

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:Livestream / Virtual:The 2-Hour Job Search
DESCRIPTION:The most challenging part of the job search is getting an interview. The only predictable way to get an interview is through networking\, but “networking” is frustratingly vague advice. How do you network so that it leads to interviews?\n\nIn this two-hour workshop\, Steve Dalton\, the author of “The 2-Hour Job Search\,” offers an exact process — rather than a series of tips — for effectively turning strangers into advocates\, leading to more internal referrals and more job interviews. This session proposes an efficient alternative to hopelessly applying to online job postings. “The 2-Hour Job Search” turns networking into a finite and repeatable recipe to help job seekers harness free and simple technology to get the right job faster\, and attendees will leave the session knowing exactly what they need to do next.\n\nThis event is a shared partnership between the Ross School of Business Career Development Office and the Alumni Association of the University of Michigan career program.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:Decoding Biological Invasions: Impacts and a New Approach to Management
DESCRIPTION:Dr. Mariano Rodriguez-Cabal\, a researcher and instructor at the University of Michigan Biological Station (UMBS)\, is a featured speaker in the 2025 Summer Lecture Series at the research and teaching campus nestled along Douglas Lake in Pellston\, Michigan.\n\nRodriguez-Cabal\, who also is a research assistant professor at the University of Vermont in the Rubenstein School of Environment and Natural Resources\, will give a talk titled “Decoding Biological Invasions: Impacts and a New Approach to Management.”\n\nRodriguez-Cabal is a field ecologist with broad interests in factors that generate\, maintain\, and threaten biodiversity. His research focuses on understanding how species and ecosystems respond to the rampant loss of biodiversity\, climate change\, and the spread of invasive species. He has 15+ years of active research focused on mutualisms loss\, the loss of native species and the gain of invasive species\, global warming and the impacts of habitat fragmentation on the diversity and structure of communities\, and ecosystem processes.\n\nRodriguez-Cabal uses observational\, experimental\, meta-analytical\, and theoretical approaches with the aim of understanding the indirect impacts of global change on biodiversity. Mariano has published 50 peer-reviewed articles on different questions and systems from slugs in British Columbia and ants in North Carolina to endemic marsupials and birds in Patagonia. He is a two-time winner of a Fulbright Scholarship.\n\nHis Ph.D. is from the Department of Ecology and Evolutionary Biology at the University of Tennessee. Rodriguez-Cabal earned his master of science from the University of Florida’s Department of Wildlife Ecology and Conservation. His Licentiate in Biological Science is from the Universidad Nacional del Comahue-Centro Regional Universitario Bariloche\, in Patagonia\, Argentina.\n\nThe U-M Biological Station — the largest of U-M's campuses at more than 10\,000 forested acres surrounded by lakes — is one of the nation's largest and longest continuously operating field research stations.\n\nFounded in 1909\, the Biological Station supports long-term research and education. It is where students and scientists from across the globe live and work as a community to learn from the place.\n\nThe Summer Lecture Series is a tradition at UMBS\, where we explore scientific topics with distinguished guest speakers from across the country so our community can learn about our natural world.\n\nThe free\, public talks are on Wednesdays from 7 to 8 p.m. in the spring and summer in Gates Lecture Hall at the University of Michigan Biological Station\, located at 9133 Biological Rd. in Pellston\, Michigan — about 20 miles south of the Mackinac Bridge.
