SUMMARY:Exhibition:Comics Beyond Sight
DESCRIPTION:This exhibit covers a variety of creative approaches to comics visual accessibility\, and by extension visual accessibility broadly. Those approaches range from multimedia (audio and textual descriptions) through multidimensional and emerging technologies strategies (3D printing\, haptics\, and screen-based mobile touch interfaces). It demonstrates that comics can be made accessible. Learn about the international efforts of innovators in the realm of comics accessibility for those who are blind or have low vision\, assembled by the Accessible Comics Collective at San Francisco State University (SFSU) with the expertise of blind access professionals. \n\nEmily Beitiks was the accessibility lead for the content creation of the exhibit. She is the co-director for the San Francisco Disability Cultural Center (the first civically funded disability culture center on the planet!)\, and prior to that\, the director of the Longmore Institute on Disability. \n\nNick Sousanis (SFSU)\, the lead creative organizer of the exhibit\, is a Detroit native and was the first person to draw his dissertation in comics format\, subsequently published as the graphic novel Unflattening.\n\nView the exhibit anytime the Hatcher Library is open\, and join us for an opening presentation on Friday\, October 2nd\, 1:00pm - 4:00pm.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Down in Ann Arbor Town: Pictorial Maps\, Campus Traditions\, and the Women Who Made Them
DESCRIPTION:Celebrate the centennial of the iconic 1926 “Down in Ann Arbor Town” map by exploring the colorful history\, campus traditions\, and detailed artistry that made it possible.

SUMMARY:Conference / Symposium:Alternative Affinities: Constellations of Kinship and Community
DESCRIPTION:The Kleinfamilie\, or “nuclear family\,” endures as a core structure that helps to define human relations. With roots in the eighteenth century\, the Kleinfamilie provided a social and economic foundation for the rise of the modern nation state. However\, the heterogeneous and multidimensional ways individuals and communities connect with one another today require a broader focus. A more fluid and encompassing term\, “kinship\,” offers a way of seeing and describing those ties that extend beyond the nuclear family and are by nature shifting and\ntemporary.\n\nUsing kinship as a framework\, Heidi Schlipphacke’s book The Aesthetics of Kinship: Form and Family in the Long Eighteenth Century (Bucknell University Press\, 2023) reexamines 18th-century German novels and dramas to uncover alternative affinities that are hidden when exclusively considered through the walled-off Kleinfamilie. Sclipphacke’s investigation belongs to a larger body of recent scholarly work seeking to reconceive of  repurpose the term “kinship.” For example\, Jennifer Evans’s The Queer Art of History: Queer Kinship after Fascism (Duke University Press\, 2023) deploys kinship as an analytic category to demonstrate how queer and trans people in postwar and contemporary Germany navigated citizenship\, love\, and public and family life. A broader investigation into kinship\, Adele E. Clarke’s and Donna Harraway’s edited volume\nMaking Kin Not Population: Reconceiving Generations (The University of Chicago Press\, 2018) contemplates questions of reproductive and environmental justice to\nconsider how we establish personal and public connections today. Building on recent interventions like these\, this conference will approach kinship as an interdisciplinary tool for exploring relational networks and the formation of personal and collective identity within–and in opposition to–“Western\,” modern\, white\, heterosexual\, and even anthropocentric norms.\n\nPROGRAM: \n\nFriday\, October 30th\nPalmer Commons\, Great Lakes North\n\n3:00 pm \nKeynote: Heidi Schlipphacke\nTitle: Kinship in Space and Time\n\n4:30 pm\nCoffee and Tea Break\n\n4:45 pm: Panel 1: Loss\, Fracture\, and Memory\n● Henrique Carvalho Pereira\, Der andere Fehl\n● Emma Stratman\, Wer über die Märchen lacht\, war nie in Not: On Obstinacy and the\nFairytale in the Work of Alexander Kluge\n● Nathan Bailey\, Seismic Epiphanies: Utopian Modes of Caring and Nursing in Heinrich\nvon Kleist‘s Das Erdbeben in Chili\nRespondent: Ella Wilhelm\n\n\nSaturday\, October 31st\nPalmer Commons\, Great Lakes North\n\n8:00 am\nBreakfast\n\n8:45 am: Panel 2: Nation and Empire\n● Hannah Edwards\, Kinship and Kingship: Heraklean Affinities and Diplomacy in Ancient\nMacedonia\n● Sam Farmer\, Partisan Places and Anti-Fascism in the (Post-)Yugoslav Family on Film\n● Deborah Pomeranz\, The Klein-Familie on Wheels: Race\, Genre\, and Kinship in Turn of\nthe Century Popular Performance (Deborah Pomeranz)\n● Ibrahim Adissa Owoo\, Orphans of the Empire: Colonial Kinship and Diasporic Belonging\nin La Saison de l’ombre of Léonora Miano\nRespondent: Kristin Dickinson\n\n10:15 am: Coffee and Tea Break\n\n10:30 am: Panel 3: Female Kinship\n● Tamar Gutfeld\, Daughters of 1930: Authority\, Crisis and Kinship in Gilgi eine von uns\n(Keun\, 1931) and Kuhle Wampe (Dudow and Brecht\, 1932)\n● Mathilda Trausch\, Flying Witches: Gossip and Alternative Female Kinship in Helma\nSanders Brahms’ Deutschland\, bleiche Mutter (1980)\n● Maria Zahner\, Mothers and Daughters in the Holocaust: reading Ruth Klüger and\nCordelia Edvardson\nRespondent: Kerstin Barndt\n\n12:00 pm: Lunch\n\n1:00 pm: Panel 4: Kinship in 20th Century Literature\n● Kehinde Sowunmi\, Witnessing the Wall: Narrative Kinship and the Implicated Reader in\nMarlen Haushofer’s Die Wand\n● Ruth Ireti Falaiye\, Kinship and Transatlantic Friendship in Kafka’s Das Urteil\n● Olivia Gilbert\, Lateral Affinities: Sibling Sociality in Robert Musil’s Man Without Qualities\n(1930-1934)\nRespondent: Johannes von Moltke\n\n2:30: Closing Remarks

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Faster and More Fun: American Home Cooking in the 1920s
DESCRIPTION:Visit the Hatcher Gallery Exhibit Room to see historical materials that illustrate women’s changing relationship with food\, cooking\, and technology during the heady decade of the 1920s\, sandwiched between WWI and the Great Depression. This exhibit features materials from the Janice Bluestein Longone Culinary Archive\, as well as select items from the Art\, Architecture\, and Engineering Special Collections and the Transportation History Collection.\n\nAs America rang in a new decade in the 1920s\, cookbook authors and appliance manufacturers stood ready to offer the newly emancipated and forward-thinking American woman a vision for her future\, a vision that would be scientifically  grounded\, speedy enough to make time for leisure as well as housework\, and guaranteed to bring fun to that most humdrum of chores: planning and preparing meals for a family three times a day\, 365 days a year.

SUMMARY:Conference / Symposium:Perspectives on Contemporary Korea | Transpacific Lives in an American Century: Ilhan New as Method
DESCRIPTION:The Nam Center for Korean Studies at the University of Michigan is proud to host an international conference focused on the life and work of Ilhan New as part of the Center’s Perspectives on Contemporary Korea series. A national hero in Korea and the University of Michigan’s most famous Korean alumnus\, Ilhan New’s remarkable biography is well known. Born in Pyongyang\, New came to the United States at a young age and received primary and secondary education in the Midwest. In Hastings\, Nebraska\, New attended the Korean youth military school established by Park Yong-man in 1909. From Hastings\, New moved to Detroit and then to nearby Ann Arbor to pursue a degree in business and commerce at the University of Michigan. While studying at Michigan New met his future spouse and trailblazing partner Mary Woo. In 1922\, New and a friend from the University of Michigan named Wally Smith launched the brand La Choy and turned a seemingly impossible chance encounter into one of the most spectacular examples of the American Dream at Smith’s grocery in Detroit. New returned to his homeland in 1926 at the age of 31 and established a successful pharmaceutical company named Yuhan yanghaeng. In the final years of the Pacific War\, New once again demonstrated his ability to shape new forms of Asian\, American\, and Asian American agency as a consultant for the US Office of Strategic Services (OSS). After liberation in 1945\, New made significant contributions to the rebuilding of South Korea through education\, public health\, and philanthropy.\n\nFar from taking New as an extraordinary individual who led an exceptional life\, the conference will approach New’s biography as a point of entry that opens onto several important avenues for thinking about Korean\, American\, and Asian American histories of the modern era\, as well as a method for interrogating these histories’ complex imbrications with one another. Particular attention will be paid to the lesser known forces that shaped New’s trajectory and the transformative impact of New’s life on these and other historical forces. Using Ilhan New not as case study but as method\, this conference will examine\, among other things\, the global footprint of Midwestern values and religiosity\, the ethnicity of global industry and global nature of ethnic industry\, fighting for a nation that is both singular and plural\, and Korea’s diasporic century.\n\n*If there is anything we can do to make this event accessible to you\, please contact us at ncks.info@umich.edu. Please be aware that advance notice is necessary as some accommodations may require more time for the university to arrange.*

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Fore-Site (Phase 3): The Stamps Gallery Pillar Project
DESCRIPTION:\n\nFrom September 2025 through December 2026\, Stamps Gallery is partnering in a curatorial collaboration with two Southeast Michigan-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 - August 12) artists: Sally Clegg (MFA ’20) and Kim Karlsrud (MFA ’20)\nPhase 3 (September 11 - December 11) artists: Abhishek Narula (MFA ’20) and Nathan Byrne (MFA ’21)\nPhase 3 \n\nCurated by Sometimes Space: Abhishek Narula (entry pillar)\nCurated by CYNK Studios: Nathan Byrne (courtyard pillar)\n\nArtist Statements/Bios\n\nAbhishek Narula\, Compressions \nCompressions is an installation comprised of 416 industrial-grade zip ties\, cinched around the entry pillar of the Stamps Gallery. The pillar measures roughly 110 inches in circumference\, requiring two ties per row to wrap around it\, resulting in 208 rows. The humble zip tie\, typically used to hang and bind other material\, is relegated to its functional properties rendering it unprepossessing and easily dismissed. The zip tie in this installation\, instead serves as an object of aesthetic possibility\, pulling it out of its usual background role to become the work itself. The resulting composition is a proposal to dwell\, to slow down\, and to simply see the pillar.\n\nAbhishek Narula is an artist\, designer\, and educator who works across sculpture\, installation\, sound\, and video. His practice takes the form of interventions\, working with what is already present. He reorients and disrupts objects and sites in order to open up formal possibilities and poetic experiences within the familiar. He is influenced by physical and digital infrastructural systems that sustain modern life and culture. His work treats this ambience itself as raw material for aesthetic inquiry\, exploring themes of labor\, precarity\, temporality and the sublime. Narula earned his MFA in Studio Art from the University of Michigan Stamps School of Art & Design and his MS/BS in Electrical Engineering from the Georgia Institute of Technology. His work has been exhibited at national and international venues such as the Ammerman Center for Arts and Technology\, Science Gallery Detroit\, Speculum Artium Media Festival in Slovenia\, New Media Caucus (NMC)\, WaveFarm\, The Boulder Public Library\, The Hyde Park Art Center\, Sector 2337 Art Gallery & Printing Press\, Tangible Embedded Interaction (TEI)\, International Symposium of Electronic Arts (ISEA)\, among others. He is a Robotics Systems Designer and Lecturer in the Robotics Department at the University of Michigan. Website / Instagram\n\nNathan Byrne\, Equally To Be Loved\nEqually To Be Loved is an image / object scaled to and installed upon the courtyard pillar of Stamps Gallery. The image is of a spontaneous sculpture made in 2017 during the first day of an artist residency at the Recology San Francisco A.I.R. Program. The sculpture was constructed in a storage container studio using 14 discrete objects that were in his studio upon entry. For Byrne\, this work embodies the energy and spirit of a studio at the start of a particularly fecund period of making. This work speaks to the artist’s interest in embodied experience of space\, archival and site responsiveness\, as well as his ongoing engagement with found materials. Byrne considers this project to be a far-flung sequel to his MFA thesis exhibition Equally Empty\, which was shown at Stamps Gallery in 2021. Equally To Be Loved is the second line of the Buddhist mantra from which both titles are derived.\n\nNathan Byrne is an artist / educator / curator currently based in Detroit\, MI. Through spatial and archive responsive projects\, he reimagines\, and explores within frameworks such as language\, the passage of time\, and contemplation. Intrigued by the potential of conveying phenomenal\, transformative\, and emotive states through materiality\, process\, and placement\, he negotiates the pliability of the viewer’s encounters with objects and environments. Byrne holds an MFA in Art from the University of Michigan Stamps School of Art & Design and a BA in Studio Art and Art History from San Francisco State University. He has been a Lecturer at Stamps School of Art & Design since the Fall of 2022. His work is exhibited widely nationally and he is a recipient of the VSC Fellowship at Vermont Studio Center. He has been awarded numerous artist residencies including Anderson Ranch Arts Center\, I-Park\, KHN Center for the Arts\, Prairie Ronde\, Recology San Francisco A.I.R. Program\, and Rockland Woods.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Reverie: The Student-led Exhibition Committee Fall 2026 Exhibition
DESCRIPTION:\n\n\nA reverie is a state between waking and dreaming\, a moment when the mind drifts beyond the immediate. It is a space where memory\, imagination\, desire\, and reality can overlap\, distort\, and take on new forms. In these moments\, the familiar can become strange\, and the ordinary can become something unexpected.\n\nReverie brings together student works that explore the space between what is known and what is felt. Across painting\, oil pastel\, ceramic\, digital art\, animation\, and mixed media\, the artists move through imagined landscapes\, intimate encounters\, memories\, figures\, and fragments of the everyday. These works blur the boundaries between observation and imagination\, allowing emotion and perception to reshape what we recognize.\n\nRather than depicting dreams literally\, Reverie considers dreaming as a way of seeing. The works reflect moments of escape\, introspection\, fantasy\, and transformation\, where the subconscious can surface and reality becomes open to interpretation. \n\nReverie was conceived and curated by members of the Student-led Exhibition Committee (SEC)\, and features work by eight SEC members at the Stamps School of Art & Design. The exhibition includes ten works across oil on canvas\, oil pastel\, ceramic\, digital art\, digital animation\, and mixed media.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Cosmo Whyte: Under the Quiet\, Beyond the Eye
DESCRIPTION:\n\nCurated by Srimoyee Mitra\n\nStamps Gallery kicks off the fall 2026 semester with an ambitious mid-career survey of interdisciplinary artist Cosmo Whyte. Born and raised in Jamaica\, Whyte completed a BFA from Bennington College and earned an MFA from the University of Michigan. He is currently a faculty member at the School of the Arts and Architecture\, UCLA.\n\nThis exhibition brings together two central concerns that animate Whyte’s artistic practice: the archive\, both personal and public\, as a site of disturbance\; and migration as a lived experience of refuge\, refusal\, and reinvention. In Whyte’s work\, the archive is never static or neutral. Rather\, it is a contested space where official histories encounter memory\, inheritance\, and the fragments of stories carried across generations. His practice moves within this charged interstitial terrain\, between what has been recorded and what has been remembered\, between institutional knowledge and embodied experience. Whyte invites the viewer to consider the fluidity of geographic borders and layered cultural identities that have persisted despite societal unrest caused by racial and socio-economic hierarchies across generations. In an era of intensified border politics and renewed debates over national identity\, Whyte’s work offers a timely meditation on memory\, movement\, and belonging.\n\nPresented with support from the U-M Institute for Humanities\, the U-M LSA Center for Latin American and Caribbean Studies\, and the U-M Library.

SUMMARY:Performance:Murray Hill
DESCRIPTION:One mic\, one man\, one band and a lifetime of material… what could possibly go right?\n\nFrom the Margins to the Marquee—One Night Only!\n\nCelebrating the release of his debut memoir Showbiz! My Life as a Middle-Aged Man\, comedian Murray Hill hits the road with a one-of-a-kind show that is part cabaret\, part stand-up\, and part behind-the-curtain tell-all. The self-proclaimed “hardest working middle-aged man in show business” brings his signature mix of razor-sharp wit\, rampant ad-libbing\, and heartfelt storytelling to the stage for a night of big laughs and hard-won wisdom from an outsider who made it his way. This show marks Murray’s debut comedy show in Ann Arbor!\n\nBacked by his swinging live band THE BALONEY SANDWICHES\, Murray Hill turns every show into a full-throttle cabaret concert comedy spectacle. With retro flair and a wink of mischief\, he works the room seamlessly between storytelling\, crowd work\, and musical moments. It’s loose\, unpredictable\, and alive\, where anything can happen and usually does. \n\nWith humor\, heart\, and zero filter\, Murray proves that making it on your own terms is the greatest show of all. Showbiz!\n\n\nMURRAY’S VIP PACKAGE:\nIncludes a meet-and-greet\, a photo with him\, hardcopy book of Showbiz! My Life as a Middle-Aged Man with a personalized book signing\, and a Showbiz! bookmark.\n\n\nABOUT MURRAY’S MEMOIR:\nIn his powerful debut memoir Showbiz! My Life as a Middle-Aged Man (Simon & Schuster’s Gallery Books)\, beloved comedian Murray Hill opens up for the first time about how a painful past led to an unwavering commitment to spread joy—one rimshot at a time. \n\nMurray on his book: “Let’s just say the world could use a little more heart and a lot more honesty right now. I’ve always believed in chosen family\, resilience\, and a well-timed punchline—this book is all three. It’s not just about where I’ve been\, it’s about how we keep going.”
