SUMMARY:Exhibition:To Be Heard: Public Mural Project
DESCRIPTION:To Be Heard at the University of Michigan is a public mural project and exhibition by Brooklyn-based street artist\, painter\, and activist Tatyana Fazlalizadeh.\n\nThe public murals will be displayed on Angell Hall\, Shapiro Undergraduate Library\, Trotter Multicultural Center\, and MLB.\n\nThe public mural component utilizes community engagement\, public art\, and social practice to listen to and amplify the voices of marginalized groups\, particularly women and non-white students at the University of Michigan. Through class workshops and interviews\, Fazlalizadeh will engage with Black and brown\, queer\, and women-identified students on the ways that they experience race and gender on campus\, exploring how students are treated based on their identities. The engagement will culminate in public art installation across campus using drawings and photos to present the experiences and stories from these students back to the public.\n\nAbout the Exhibition\n*Pressed Against My Own Glass*\, exhibition\, September 15-October 21\, 2022. Location: Institute for the Humanities Gallery\, 202 S. Thayer.\n\nThe exhibition *Pressed Against My Own Glass* will be installed in the Institute for the Humanities Gallery. In this multimedia installation on Black womanhood within the home space\, Fazlalizadeh explores her childhood and adulthood within the domestic space and how it connects to the experiences of other Black women and those who had a girlhood. Using paintings\, drawings\, video\, and reappropriated home objects\, she examines her experiences of joy\, rest\, sadness\, and fellowship in the home. While doing so\, she makes connections to her Black women peers\, even those like Breonna Taylor and Atatiana Jefferson who show how racist violence is a threat to Black women even in their homes.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:\"I have a crisis for you\": Women Artists of Ukraine Respond to War
DESCRIPTION:An exhibit curated by Grace Mahoney and Jessica Zychowicz\nFeaturing work by Kinder Album\, JT Blatty\, Oksana Briukhovetska (MFA\, Stamps School of Art and Design)\, Oksana Kazmina\, Sonya Hukaylo\, Svetlana Lavochkina\, Kateryna Lisovenko\, and Lyuba Yakimchuk.\n\nLane Hall Exhibit Space\n204 South State Street\n\nAbout the exhibit:\nIn February 2022\, the world witnessed the invasion of Ukraine and all-out war of aggression by the Russian Federation. Since this time\, massive casualties\, human rights violations\, and an unprecedented refugee crisis have ensued. Women artists of Ukraine have responded. They paint on found materials in refugee housing\, illustrate in bomb shelters\, photograph their shelled cities wearing press passes and bulletproof jackets. They document\, create\, and share. They post their daily journals and images on social media. They perform at the Grammy Awards. They know their message is powerful\, and the amplification of their voices is critical for victory in a very real battle for survival.\n\nCurated by Grace Mahoney (U-M Slavic Languages and Literatures) and Jessica Zychowicz\, Ph.D. (Fulbright Ukraine and U-M Alumna)\, \"'I have a crisis for you': Women Artists of Ukraine Respond to War\" showcases work created by women artists in response to Russia’s war in Ukraine. The involved artists are painters\, photographers\, filmmakers\, poets\, translators\, and textile artists. Many of the works exhibited demonstrate a continuity of engagement by the artists with the topic of war\, especially since 2014 when the people of Ukraine gathered in a “Revolution of Dignity” against attempts by the Russian Federation to control the country’s independence resulting in Russia’s annexation of the Crimean Peninsula and backing of pro-Russian separatists in Ukraine’s east. \n\nThe featured artists have also been selected because of their prominent interest and exploration of issues relating to gender in their works. The title for this exhibit comes from a poem of the same name by Lyuba Yakimchuk:\n\n“— our love’s gone missing\, I explain to a friend/ it vanished in one of the wars/ we waged in our kitchen/ — change the word ‘war’ to ‘crisis\,’ he suggests/ because a crisis is something everyone has from time to time.”\n\nLike in Yakimchuk’s poem\, many of these artists approach the war with personal perspectives. They intertwine\, juxtapose\, and disrupt experiences of war with the intimacies of personal relationships\, the workings interior lives\, and perceptions of social roles. The featured artworks and documents engage a range of subjects from women volunteering as combatants to the processes of grieving and reflect ongoing discourses in Ukrainian feminist scholarship. \n\nThe exhibit will be accompanied by a companion website which includes an expanded set of informational and aid-related resources. \n\n\"'I have a crisis for you': Women Artists of Ukraine Respond to War\" is hosted by the University of Michigan’s Institute for Research on Women and Gender (IRWG) and the Department of Women’s and Gender Studies with co-sponsorship from the Center for Russian\, East European & Eurasian Studies\, the Department of Slavic Languages and Literatures\, the Museum Studies Program\, the Weiser Center for Europe and Eurasia\, and the Weiser Center for Emerging Democracies.\n\nRelated Events:\n\nOpening Reception with comments by the curators\n4:00-6:00 pm ET\, Thursday\, September 15th\, 2022\nLane Hall\n\nArtists’ Roundtable (Hybrid)\n3:30-5:00pm ET\, Friday\, September 16th\, 2022\nWeiser Hall\, 1010\n\n*U-M classes may schedule visits outside of regular gallery hours by emailing LaneHallExhibits@umich.edu

SUMMARY:Conference / Symposium:The Ways of Water: Art\, Activism\, and Ecologies Symposium
DESCRIPTION:Water is the lifeblood of civilizations\, the center of cities\, the\nfoundation of creation stories and the connective tissue of culture. Water is a\nlife force\, without it humanity will cease to exist. Despite this fact\, or\nperhaps because of it\, water is highly politicized\, used as a weapon\, tool\,\ninspiration\, and muse. Water is a vital life source that holds (and\ngenerates) power. It is nourishing\, quenching\, and refreshing but has also been\ncommodified\, polluted\, and politicized. From the Standing Rock\, Leech Lake and\nFond du Lac reservations\, to the straits of Mackinac where oil pipelines\nthreaten important waterways\, to the polluted Mississippi River and drying\nColorado River Basin\, to water shutoffs in Detroit\, PFAs in Ann Arbor\, and the\nFlint Water crisis (to name just a few)\, ensuring access to clean water (and the\nsustainable ecologies it supports) is an ongoing struggle that requires\nintersectional\, intergenerational\, and collective knowledge sharing\, discussion\nand action to protect. \nThe symposium brings together a diverse group of practitioners\,\nincluding artists\, designers\, activists\, scholars\, scientists\, policy analysts\,\nurban planners\, and thinkers to discuss what may well be the most important\nissue of our time: access to clean water and the fight for environmental\njustice. Held in partnership with the University of Michigan Museum of Art and building on themes present in the UMMA exhibition Watershed and Stamps Gallery&#039\;s LaToya Ruby Frazier: Flint is Family in Three Acts\, The Ways of Water symposium continues to unravel the story of water\, its critical role\,\nand the way it connects us all. \nFlint Is Family In Three Acts details the destructive forces of industry\,\nlax regulation on the environment and aging infrastructure in the United States\nhighlighting the environmental racism at work in a world further threatened by\nclimate change. Watershed takes a more expansive view of water in the Great Lakes region by\nexploring four overlapping themes: Michigan Water in Crisis\; Our Impact\;\nConfronting Colonial Legacies\; Water as a Life Force. This symposium will begin\nwith an overview of treaties\, laws\, policies (and the movements that drove and\nupended them) and then takes us on a journey through the history of water\, its\ncultural significance and how we have come to understand it today. Subsequent\nsessions explore the present and how uprisings\, artworks\, and community actions\nhave further shaped the feel and use of water. To follow is a convening that\nasks participants to consider how we may imagine the future of water. In doing\nso\, the symposium will create a “call to action” and produce a “white\npaper.”\nDiverse practitioners have\nbeen invited in order to underscore the need for a multiplicity of voices needed\nto confront these issues. The Ways of Water symposium brings together perspectives of artists\, activists\,\ncommunity members alongside those of scientists and policy makers. To understand\nthe many facets of how humanity and the biosphere interacts and relies on water\,\nit is not only important for us to understand the history and present tense of\nwater (the politics\, economies\, and culture built around and with it) but how\nthese understandings and reimaginings are vital to building a more just and\nequitable future that centers water and respects it for everything it\nprovides. \nSpeakers to include: María Arquero de Alarcón\, Daniel Brown\, José Casas\, Bonnie Devine\, Doug Fogelson\, Amber Hasan and Shea Cobb\, Alice Jennings\, Branko Kerkez\, Osman Khan\, Heidi Kumao\, Lisa Lapeyro\, Kate Levy\, Shanna Merola\, Kelly Murdoch-Kitt + Denielle Emans\, Andrea Pierce\, David Porter\, Senghor Reid\, Perrin Selcer\, Cedric Taylor\, Joe Trumpey\, Morgan P. Vickers and more.\nSymposium events are free and open to all. Keynote\, additional panelists and complete symposium schedule to be announced. Please contact Jennifer Junkermeier-Khan\, Stamps Gallery at jenjkhan@umich.edu for additional information or with questions.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:To Be Heard: \"Pressed Against My Own Glass\" Exhibition
DESCRIPTION:To Be Heard at the University of Michigan is a public mural project and exhibition by Brooklyn-based street artist\, painter\, and activist Tatyana Fazlalizadeh. \n\nThe exhibition* Pressed Against My Own Glass* will be installed in the Institute for the Humanities Gallery. In this multimedia installation on Black womanhood within the home space\, Fazlalizadeh explores her childhood and adulthood within the domestic space and how it connects to the experiences of other Black women and those who had a girlhood. Using paintings\, drawings\, video\, and reappropriated home objects\, she examines her experiences of joy\, rest\, sadness\, and fellowship in the home. While doing so\, she makes connections to her Black women peers\, even those like Breonna Taylor and Atatiana Jefferson who show how racist violence is a threat to Black women even in their homes.\n\nAbout the Public Mural Project:\n\n*To Be Heard*\, public mural project\, September 28-October 16\, 2022. Locations: Angell Hall\, Trotter Multicultural Center\, Modern Languages Building\, Shapiro Library.\n\nThe public mural component utilizes community engagement\, public art\, and social practice to listen to and amplify the voices of marginalized groups\, particularly women and non-white students at the University of Michigan.
