SUMMARY:Exhibition:Rafael Lozano-Hemmer
DESCRIPTION:Wavefunction\, Subsculpture 9\, by Mexican-Canadian artist Rafael Lozano-Hemmer\, is a kinetic sculpture and interactive installation that plays on the work of mid-century American designers Charles and Ray Eames.\n\nThe installation consists of 42 molded plastic chairs (designed by the Eameses in 1948) arranged in a grid and attached to electromechanical pistons. When visitors approach the chairs\, a surveillance system detects their presence and the closest chairs lift gently off the ground. The adjacent chairs follow\, and a wave movement spreads across the array. The software controlling the pistons is based on fluid dynamics\, so as more visitors approach the grid\, the chairs—whose iconic curving contours were also generated mathematically— mimic the complex interaction of multiple waves in water.\n\nThis performative installation complements the concurrent exhibition Moving Image: Performance\, which together constitute the second of three presentations at UMMA drawn from the collection of Borusan Contemporary\, Istanbul. The works in this year-long trio of exhibitions represent traditional categories such as portraiture\, landscape\, and performance that find new resonance when explored through the strategies of dynamic technology.\n\nLead support for Rafael Lozano-Hemmer: Wavefunction\, Subsculpture 9 is provided by the Herbert W. and Susan L. Johe Endowment and Michigan Engineering. Additional generous support is provided by the University of Michigan Latina/o Studies.

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:Workshop / Seminar:Causal Inference in Education Research Seminar (CIERS): More Gains Than Score Gains? High School Accountability and College Achievement
DESCRIPTION:Abstract:\nWhile test-score value-added models are increasingly popular measures of school quality\, concerns about their limitations remain. Schools may reallocate resources toward tested subjects or spend excess time on exam preparation\, and standardized exams may not accurately measure content knowledge. I create a theoretical framework outlining how schools may allocate limited resources under high-stakes accountability\, and follow it by examining the empirical relationship between schools' test-score value added and the grades their graduates earn at public colleges in Michigan. In preliminary results\, I find that schools with high value added in reading contribute to better grades in college\, both in English courses and in other subjects\, while math value added has only a marginally-significant relationship with college math grades and no relationship with any other outcomes. The effects of attending a school with high reading value added are particularly large for black students and economically disadvantaged students.

SUMMARY:Recreational / Games:Deutschtisch
DESCRIPTION:The Deutschtisch for Spring 2017 is associated with German 100\, but all are welcome!  The group will meet Mondays and Wednesdays 12:15-1:00. You can find the group with your ears (i.e. listen for a group of people speaking German). Look for the group at Beanster's Cafe on the ground floor of the Michigan League (typically the group will meet here) OR occasionally on Mondays with good weather\, in the \"Courtyard Garden\" of the League\, across from UHS (one way to get to it would be to go directly through the League from the front doors (facing the Bell Tower) to the back doors). ALTERNATIVELY\, you can come to the end of the morning class session at 12:00 in Room 2106 MLB and then walk to lunch with the group.\n\nThere will always be at least one instructor present\; in the first half of the Summer semester\, that will be Shubhangi Dabak or Julie Gruber.\n\nAll interested German speakers are welcome!\n\nIf you are taking German 232 in the Summer\, you can make up 2 \"A&P Tally\" points by attending. Just ask one of the instructors present to let your instructor(s) know you were there.
