SUMMARY:Exhibition:Materia Magica: Materiality and Ritual in the Greco-Roman World
DESCRIPTION:View a diverse array of artifacts which were created to communicate with and call upon various unseen\, supernatural forces for aid and protection. While the objects on display are disparate at first glance\, ranging from lead tablets and amulets to papyrus and parchment leaves\, they all share a common thread: they have long been labeled as \"magical\" in traditional Western scholarship.\n\nHowever\, each of these artifacts is better understood on a broad spectrum of ancient ritual\, from subversive and transgressive acts to highly social and visible ones. The exhibit highlights the objects’ oft-overlooked material dimensions\, asking us to consider how qualities like color\, texture\, and weight shaped an object’s perceived efficacy and meaning. \n\nThis exhibit was a collaboration\, and displays items from several University of Michigan units: the library’s Special Collections Research Center and Papyrology Collection\, the Museum of Natural History\, and the Kelsey Museum of Archaeology. It was curated by Abigail Staub\, PhD Candidate\, Interdepartmental Program in Mediterranean Art & Archaeology.\n\nAnna Bonnell Freidin\, U-M associate professor of history\, will talk about \"Healing the Womb: Uterine Amulets in the Roman World\" (https://events.umich.edu/event/142418) on January 16.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Fore-Site (Phase 2): The Stamps Gallery Pillar Project
DESCRIPTION:\n\nFrom September 2025 through August 2026\, Stamps Gallery is partnering in a curatorial collaboration with two Ypsilanti-based\, artist-run project spaces led by Stamps alumni: C.Y.N.K. Studios\, directed by Sally Clegg (Lecturer III and Student Exhibition Coordinator\, MFA ’20) and Abhishek Narula (MFA ’20)\; and Sometimes Space\, directed by Nathan Byrne (Lecturer I\, MFA ’21). Each space hosts dozens of artists annually for exhibitions\, performances\, and events\, fostering experimental work and building community. For this project\, Byrne\, Clegg\, and Narula have been commissioned to reimagine the pillars on Division Street that flank the gallery. In response\, they’ve curated six artists to create new work for the pillars over three cycles:\n\nPhase 1 (September 12 - December 12) artists: Amelia Burns (Cranbrook MFA ’23) and Erin McKenna (MFA ’20)\nPhase 2 (January 12 - April 12) artists: Sally Clegg (MFA ’20) and Kim Karlsrud (MFA ’20)\nPhase 3 (May 12 - August 12) artists: Abhishek Narula (MFA ’20) and Nathan Byrne (MFA ’21)\nPhase 2 Curatorial Statement\n\nCurated by Sometimes Space: Sally Clegg (entry pillar)\nCurated by CYNK Studios: Kim Karlsrud (courtyard pillar)\n\nArtists Sally Clegg and Kim Karlsrud wrap the Division Street pillars in highly site-specific ornament unearthed from the overlooked margins of Ann Arbor. On the Courtyard pillar\, Karlsrud scales up photographs of objects found in liminal spaces surrounding campus buildings on Green Road\, which the artist has encrusted in road salt. On the entryway pillar\, Clegg zooms in on tiny fragments of found material from UMich’s famous “rock” to celebrate nearly seven decades of student art and activism. Both artists uplift aggregate of local human activity to reveal tiny worlds of found form. \n\nSally Clegg: Sentimentary Rock\nSentimentary Rock is a composition of paint slag collected from the UMich rock monument at the corner of Washtenaw Avenue and Hill Street. This colorful composite material has been accumulating at the base of the iconic limestone boulder since the mid 1950’s\, when students began a tradition of painting it in acts of protest\, creativity\, and ritual\, sometimes multiple times per week. Akin to byproducts of industry such as “Fordite” (collectable chunks of automotive overspray sometimes called ‘Detroit agate’)\, Sentimentary Rock includes thousands of layers\, each dripped from a palimpsestic public proclamation. When processed\, sculpted\, sealed\, assembled\, and macro-photographed\, the result is this enlarged array of tiny gems\, intended to celebrate the indissoluble student voice. \n\nKim Karlsrud: What Amasses\nWhat Amasses is an assemblage of everyday found objects collected within the Miller Creek watershed\, an urbanized drainage system that encompasses much of the city of Ann Arbor and the University of Michigan campus. Selected objects were immersed in a road salt solution\, allowing delicate crystalline formations to emerge. Road salt is a common material input into these hydrological networks during the winter months and exists in multiple states of refinement\, expression\, coherence\, and fragmentation. Each object was then arranged\, photographed\, and enlarged to recontextualize these materials in ways that invite deeper reflections on how infrastructure and human agency blur notions of the natural and the artificial. \nArtist Statements/Bios\n\nSally Clegg \nSally Clegg is an artist and educator from Pelham\, Massachusetts. Her studio practice is rooted in sculpture and expanded printmaking\, stemming from a fascination with human efforts to make meaning from our relationships to objects. Clegg integrates history\, popular culture\, literature and philosophy as material for artmaking\, leveraging personal anecdote and humor to reveal the complexity\, absurdity\, and theoretical richness at play in our connections to things and to ourselves. \n\nClegg holds an MFA in Art from The University of Michigan Stamps School of Art & Design\, and a BA in Art & English from Goucher College. She has exhibited nationally and internationally\, and her work can be found in permanent collections at Yale University\, The New York Public Library\, and elsewhere. Her artwork and writing has appeared in ASAP/Journal\, BOMB Magazine\, Sculpture Magazine\, and Hyperallergic. She is a lecturer in Art & Design at the University of Michigan. Website / Instagram\n\n\nKim Karlsrud \nKim Karlsrud is the co-founder of Commonstudio\, a collaborative creative practice that develops socio-ecological and spatial interventions\, installations\, and initiatives working with and within urban landscapes. Her work explores the space between art and design\, and is grounded in the concept of the “commons\,” that which is shared\, as well as that which is ordinary\, banal\, and commonplace.\n\nKarlsrud completed her undergraduate degree in Product Design from Otis College of Art and Design and an MFA in Art from the University of Michigan. She is currently an Assistant Visiting Professor in the College of Design at the University of Oregon\, teaching across Art and Landscape Architecture departments. She jointly received the 2014-15 Prince Charitable Trust Rome Prize in Landscape Architecture\, was a 2017 resident at the Headlands Center for the Arts\, and is the 2025-26 Fuller Fieldscape Fellow.

SUMMARY:Film Screening:Korean Cinema NOW | Big Deal | 소주전쟁
DESCRIPTION:2025 ‧ Drama ‧ 1h 44 min ‧ Unrated\n\nView the trailer at: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Jgjr2KXU67o\n   \n   Big Deal is a drama that offers a high-stakes\, semi-autobiographical look at the corporate battle waged during the 1997 Asian financial crisis. Starring Yoo Hae-jin and Lee Je-hoon\, the story is loosely based on the real-life sale of Jinro soju. It follows Pyo Jong-rok (Yoo Hae-jin)\, the loyal financial director of the nation's number one soju company\, Gukbo Group\, who is desperately trying to save the brand from bankruptcy. He is pitted against Choi In-beom (Lee Je-hoon)\, a young\, ambitious associate from a global investment firm aiming to acquire Gukbo and sell it off for profit. The film is a dramatic clash of corporate ideals and personal loyalties\, where the fate of Korea's most iconic working-class liquor becomes a symbol of the nation's economic identity.\n   \n   Directed by Choi Yun-jin\n   Presented in Korean with English subtitles\n\n*Accommodation: If there is anything we can do to make this event accessible to you\, please contact us at outreachkorea@umich.edu.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:Penny Stamps Speaker Series - Julie Ault and Julie Herrada
DESCRIPTION:Special Event: 4:00 p.m. on Saturday\, January 24\, 2026 at UMMA's Helmut Stern Auditorium. RSVP Required.\n\nJoin us for a powerful conversation between artist and curator Julie Ault and archivist Julie Herrada as we celebrate the opening of American Sampler: Activating the Archive\, UMMA’s new landmark exhibition. Together\, they’ll discuss how archival research\, curatorial practice\, and artistic vision come together in the exhibition to illuminate histories of dissent that continue to influence the social landscape of the United States.\n\nAmerican Sampler: Activating the Archive is a research-driven\, immersive exhibition curated by MacArthur Fellow Julie Ault in UMMA’s Vertical Gallery\, in collaboration with the Joseph A. Labadie Collection of anarchism\, protest\, and social movements housed in the U-M Library’s Special Collections Research Center. The exhibition centers on 1950s–1970s movements for Black freedom\, civil rights\, and antiwar activism\, clarifying the aspirations and effects as well as the violent opposition these movements encountered. American Sampler invites visitors to examine how legacies of grassroots organizing and protest in U.S. history shape the present. This ambitious project is the inaugural collaboration of the new Labadie Collection and UMMA Fellowship Program. \n\nJulie Ault is an artist and writer whose practice explores how histories are retold and their influence on the present. Working across exhibition-making\, research\, publication\, and archiving\, she examines how cultural production is shaped by and can intervene in social and political systems. Ault’s exhibitions include Paper Mirror: Nancy Spero (Museo Tamayo and MoMA PS1\, 2018–19)\, Afterlife: a constellation (Whitney Biennial\, 2014)\, and Cultural Economies: Histories from the Alternative Arts Movement (The Drawing Center\, 1996). Her publications include Felix Gonzalez-Torres (2006)\, Come Alive: The Spirited Art of Sister Corita (2006)\, and DUETS: Julie Ault &amp\; David Deitcher in Conversation on William Olander (2021)\, among others. Ault was a founding member of the artists’ collaborative Group Material (1979–1996)\, whose exhibitions addressed critical issues\, including AIDS Timeline (1989). In 2018 she was awarded the MacArthur Fellowship for “redefining the role of the artwork and the artist” through her multi-modal practice.\n\nJulie Herrada is the Curator of the Joseph A. Labadie Collection at the University of Michigan’s Special Collections Research Center\, overseeing materials on international social protest movements. In this role she introduces classes to the study of primary sources\, curates exhibits\, assists global researchers\, and works to preserve and share overlooked histories. Highlights of her outreach include organizing the 50th anniversaries of the Port Huron Statement (2012) and the first Teach-In against the Vietnam War (2015). She has published book reviews and journal articles\, including the widely cited Letters to the Unabomber. Her notable exhibitions include The Whole World Was Watching: Protest and Revolution in 1968\; Soapboxers &amp\; Saboteurs: 100 Years of Wobbly Solidarity\; and Joseph Labadie and His Gift to Michigan: A Legacy for the Masses.\n\nPresented in partnership with the University of Michigan Museum of Art\, on the opening of their new landmark exhibition American Sampler: Activating the Archive.\n\nThis project was made possible by a grant from the Arts Initiative at the University of Michigan.\nSeries presenting partners: Detroit PBS\, ALL ARTS\, and PBS Books. Media partner: Michigan Public.
