SUMMARY:Exhibition:Catie Newell: Overnight
DESCRIPTION:Detroit-based architect Catie Newell’s work is focused on the tactile\, sensory qualities of the materials we use to build things: their texture\, density\, or malleability. Her investigations combine architectural research\, material studies\, and art experiments\, a strategy she began as a student that now defines her career.\n\nThe most important element in her formal vocabulary is light\, not only as a “material” in its own right\, but also as a condition. Varying in strength\, form\, and duration\, light constructs architecture as a situational experience rather than a fixed space. Newell’s fascination with light is a fascination with darkness. Through urban interventions\, installations\, and photographs\, she investigates how darkness creates alternate environments\, with unseen geographies\, untold histories\, and secret identities.\n\nNewell\, assistant professor of architecture at U-M Taubman College of Architecture and Urban Planning\, is a recent recipient of the Rome Prize in architecture. Overnight includes photographs from her Rome project as well as new photography from the series Nightly\, featuring nighttime images of Detroit streetscapes and interiors\, alongside a site-specific sculptural installation commissioned by the Museum.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Manuel Álvarez Bravo: Mexico’s Poet of Light
DESCRIPTION:Manuel Álvarez Bravo spent nearly his entire career photographing his native Mexico. His style drew upon numerous international influences\, ranging from the Modernism of Edward Weston and Tina Modotti\, whom he met when they spent time in Mexico in the 1920s\, to the formally exquisite photojournalism of Henri Cartier-Bresson and Walker Evans\, whose work he knew in New York\, and the Surrealism of André Breton\, who visited Mexico around 1940.\n\nAlthough not strictly Surrealist\, many of Álvarez Bravo’s works manifest a similarly fantastical mood\; one of the artist’s most arresting qualities is his ability to imbue scenes of everyday life with an otherworldly\, metaphysical power. The twenty-three photographs in the exhibition\, drawn from UMMA’s collections\, show the artist’s ability to synthesize a personal—even nationalistic—style that merged the motifs of Mexican religious and indigenous works and plant forms (such as agave leaves) with a Modernist approach to image making. Throughout\, the presence of light as a wondrous metaphor and revealer of life animates even the emptiest and most silent of Álvarez Bravo’s scenes.\n\n**Special hours Sundays: 12–5pm\, CLOSED Mondays

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Mira Henry: The View Inside
DESCRIPTION:Before joining the faculty of the Southern California Institute of Architecture in Los Angeles\, Mira Henry spent several years as a project architect\, immersed in the everyday\, banal details of how buildings get built: construction drawings\, material specs\, and building codes. She became an expert in seeing the world the way an architect sees it. But as a progressive architectural thinker\, Henry’s inspiration has been to deconstruct that vision\, to “unsee” the very forms and representations that constitute an architect’s basic language.\n\nThrough speculative experiments and conceptual drawings Henry discovers in static architectural details an unsettling range of figurative expression\, including\, for example\, the way the profiles of roof eaves resemble human heads. Wallpaper\, with its ability to mask\, transform\, or animate a space\, is also a prominent element in her work. Her projects explore how these features animate our subjective experience—what she calls our “shifting fantasies”—of architectural space.\nLead support for this exhibition is provided by the Herbert W. and Susan L. Johe Endowment.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Health\, History\, Demography & Development (H2D2)
DESCRIPTION:Abstract:\nOutreach workers are widely used to increase the access to health services\, particularly for minority groups. The difference in ethnicity of an outreach worker and that of a prospective patient can limit the success of such efforts. Using a field experiment in Nepal\, we investigate the extent of such barriers and if differential incentives can help offset them. We varied the amount of financial incentives provided to health outreach workers by the ethnicity of the client they recruited for a free sugar-level assessment. We also varied the amount the clients received for appearing for the assessment. We find that the barriers due to ethnicity are high. Even a highly differential incentive in the ratio of 5:2\, geared toward encouraging the workers to recruit clients from an ethnic group different than their own\, is insufficient to fully offset the barriers. In sub-group analysis\, we find suggestive evidence that differential incentives to advantaged outreach workers have the potential to improve access for traditionally disadvantaged groups. We also find that the advantaged and disadvantaged health workers face different amounts of barriers to outreach efforts. Financial incentives to the clients had no effect on their decision to appear for the assessment.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:Medieval Lunch. Lulling and Soothing in 'Lullay lullay little child’
DESCRIPTION:This paper examines a “Lullay lullay littel child\, why wepëstou so sore?” our earliest witness to what we easily label as a “lullaby.” It seeks to pull apart this quick identification and really put pressure on what the term “lullaby” carries with it\, and what we bring to a poem when we apply this label. It at once uses the categorical type to put pressure on the particular poem and the particular poem to put pressure on the category. The crux of understanding the history of the lullaby lies in the essential concept of soothing. This paper traces the meaning back from our modern sense based on comfort to the medieval idea of truth to propose that the truth-telling capacity of the lullaby in and of itself provided a source of comfort for its audience (or performer).

SUMMARY:Meeting:Social Area Brown Bag
DESCRIPTION:The behavioral ecology of psychological variation: population density\, relatedness\, and disease\n\nRecent work has documented a wide range of important psychological differences both between and within societies. Multiple explanations have been proposed to understand why such differences exist\, including historical philosophies\, subsistence methods\, social mobility\, social class\, climatic stresses\, and religion. With the growing body of theory and data\, some broader questions are becoming pertinent. What are the foundational dimensions of culture? What are the origins of psychological variation between groups? I propose that a behavioral ecological approach\, particularly the idea of phenotypic plasticity\, can (1) help unite existing explanations\, (2) generate novel predictions\, and (3) ultimately facilitate the creation of an ecological taxonomy of cultures\, from which one might derive a rich set of predictions with respect to psychological variation across human groups. I will focus on relevant work and predictions on the psychological effects of population density\, genetic relatedness\, and pathogen prevalence.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:The Importance of Aperture: The Scenic Illusion Paintings (通景画) of the Forbidden City and the Vestiges of Italian Scenography?
DESCRIPTION:With the restoration of the Juanqin zhai within the Forbidden City\, the scenic illusion paintings commissioned by the emperor Qianlong have received unprecedented attention. The scholarly literature in both Chinese and English on scenic illusion painting has traced a direct line of descent from the Jesuit painter Andrea Pozzo’s painting for ecclesiastical spaces. However\, the discovery of one such scenic illusion painting that had originally hung as a stage backdrop furnishes visual evidence that speaks to the importance of Italian scenic design for the stage in these paintings\, and allows us to see them quite literally in a new perspective. In this lecture\, I address the importance of the training of the Italian painters who came to Beijing\, Gherardini and Castiglione\, in the Bolognese school of polyfocal perspectivalism\, and most crucially\, show how monofocal perspectivalism was understood by Chinese artists and theorists in terms of proportional representation. Perspectivalism is so often made to bear the weight of indexing European contact with Chinese artists\; this material crucially allows us to open the conception of perspectivalism and to reduce the emphasis on monofocal perspective in scholarly thinking regarding the contact of Chinese artists with the west.\n\n*Image: The Juanqinzhai of the Forbidden City\n\nBiography\n\nSophie Volpp is Associate Professor of Chinese and Comparative Literature at the University of California Berkeley. The author of Worldly Stage: Theatricality in Seventeenth-Century China\, she is completing a book on literary objects in seventeenth- and eighteenth-century Chinese fiction.
