Exhibition:Momentary Landscape

Diane Lavoie’s *Momentary Landscape* project is a site-specific pop-up installation located on the U-M campus grounds in close proximity to the School for Environment and Sustainability. The project intends to engage the campus community by embedding large textile panels into the tree line. All of the textiles will be made from up-cycled materials, showcasing sustainability and environmental issues. Taking inspiration from the foliage of southeast Michigan, Lavoie’s on-campus interventions aim to celebrate the positive impact of the beautiful campus landscape on our everyday experiences. The project offers students and visitors a restorative and joyful experience through public art installation.

“He has an uncanny ability to breathe new life into the familiar. His storytelling has the richness of fine literature.” –Washington Post

John McCutcheon's art grew out of his absolute mastery of American traditional music and instruments. He's a legend of the guitar, the hammered dulcimer, and several other instruments, and a prolific songwriter, and there's nobody more qualified to own the folkmusic.com domain name! The result is a body of classic American song, rooted in the best our musical tradition has to offer. John McCutcheon is a voice for peace, a community organizer, a writer, a literacy campaigner, and a performer who has packed concert halls on four continents. The Washington Post calls John's concerts "little feats of magic," and as a storyteller he's been compared with Garrison Keillor—and, even better than that, Will Rogers.
