SUMMARY:Exhibition:Victors for Art: Michigan's Alumni Collectors–Part I: Figuration
DESCRIPTION:Commemorating the University of Michigan’s 2017 Bicentennial\, Victors for Art: Michigan’s Alumni Collectors celebrates the deep impact of Michigan alumni in the global art world. This two-part exhibition (Part I: Figuration followed by Part II: Abstraction on view July 1– October 29) presents works collected by a diverse group of alumni that represent the breadth of the University and over seventy years of graduating classes. The works themselves are equally diverse\, ranging from ancient sculptures to contemporary multimedia works. Part I: Figuration features works by Henri Matisse\, Elizabeth Louise Vigée Le Brun\, Mark Tansey\, and Mickalene Thomas\, among others\, and allows visitors to explore the variety of artistic responses and purposes encompassed by the term “figuration”. It also offers an unprecedented opportunity to view art that may have never been publicly displayed otherwise—and most certainly\, not all together. For visitors\, and especially for future Michigan alumni\, Victors for Art illuminates the shared passion for art fostered by the Michigan experience.\n\nThis exhibition was organized by Joseph Rosa\, Guest Curator\, in collaboration with Laura De Becker\, Helmut & Candis Stern Associate Curator of African Art\, Jennifer Friess\, Assistant Curator of Photography\, Lehti Mairike Keelman\, Assistant Curator of Western Art\, and Natsu Oyobe\, Curator of Asian Art.\n\nLead support for Victors for the Arts: Michigan's Alumni Collectors is provided by the University of Michigan Office of the Provost\, the University of Michigan Health System\, the University of Michigan Office of the President\, the Michigan Council for Arts and Cultural Affairs and the National Endowment for the Arts\, and the University of Michigan Bicentennial Office.

SUMMARY:Ceremony / Service:Dr. Corydon L. Ford Artifact Dedication
DESCRIPTION:Corydon L. Ford\, M.D. joined the University of Michigan faculty as Professor of Anatomy in 1854.  Revered by his colleagues\, Dr. Ford was elected Dean of the Medical School in 1861-1862 and again from 1879-1880 and 1887-1891. He was the last medical school dean to be elected directly by the faculty. \n\nBorn in upstate New York in 1813\, he contracted “infantile paralysis” or poliomyelitis as a child and walked with a decided limp for the rest of his days. Ford earned his M.D. from the Geneva Medical College in 1842\, where he taught anatomy from 1842-1848.  Among his many students was Elizabeth Blackwell\, the first woman to obtain an M.D. in the United States.  Dr. Blackwell recalled in her memoirs that Dr. Ford was the kindest faculty member she encountered at Geneva\, a trait he upheld and extended to both his colleagues and students his entire life.\n\nDr. Ford was close friends with Dr. Moses Gunn while both were at Geneva Medical College in upstate New York in the mid-1840s.  Gunn was so busy with his surgical practice and teaching surgery at Michigan that he recruited Ford to come to Ann Arbor in 1854 to teach gross anatomy\, and here Dr. Ford stayed (although he held several summer-time teaching posts at Long Island Hospital Medical College\, Bowdoin College\, Castleton Medical College\, and Berkshire Medical College).  At the time of his appointment\, the University of Michigan Medical School was only 4 years old.\n\nDr. Ford taught on the top floor of the Medical Building because it featured a skylight and\, of course\, there was not yet electrified light to illuminate afternoon or evening sessions. He lived in his office until 1865\, when at the age of 52 he married. At Dr. Ford’s final lecture\, on April 12\, 1894\, the distinguished Harvard trained-physiologist Warren Plimpton Lombard recalled “All of the faculty would have been there had he allowed it to be known in advance.  He was then eighty-one years old\, but he gave a great lecture.  It was a masterpiece.  Ford was without doubt the finest of Old School lecturers on anatomy in this country and probably in the world.”  After giving this last lecture\, he turned wearily to an assistant and said\, “My work is done.”  A few hours later\, Professor Ford walked the few block distance to his home\, suffered a massive stroke\, and died.\n\nThe personal belongings of Dr. Corydon L. Ford exhibited will be his surgical and anatomical tool kit\, microscope\, and walking stick\, and were bequeathed to his great nephew\, J. Lloyd Ford of Grand Rapids\, Michigan\, around 1895. These items have been kept in the vault of the Shawnee Milling Company of Shawnee\, Oklahoma\, since it was founded by J. Lloyd Ford in 1906. The items have come full circle with the Ford family's gift of these items to the University of Michigan on June 9\, 2017 at 3pm.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:Outside In: A Walking Tour of Cosmogonic Tattoos
DESCRIPTION:In celebration of the University Bicentennial\, Stamps School of Art & Design Professor and artist Jim Cogswell was invited to develop a public installation drawing upon the collections of the University of Michigan Museum of Art and the Kelsey Museum of Archaeology. For this visionary project\, the artist created a single rhythmic procession of vivid\, but fragmentary images installed on the glass walls of the two museums. In this walking tour that begins at UMMA and ends at the Kelsey\, Cogswell will describe the purpose and process of his project which narrates a compelling story about the movement of people and objects throughout history\, their stories now set in new relationships to each other. A public reception will follow the tour on the Kelsey Museum Loggia (outside the Maynard Street Entrance).\n\nLead support for Cosmogonic Tattoos is provided by the University of Michigan Office of the Provost. Additional support for the artist's project is provided by the University of Michigan Bicentennial Office and the Penny W. Stamps School of Art and Design.
