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:Japanese Prints of Kabuki Theater from the Collection of the University of Michigan Museum of Art
DESCRIPTION:Kabuki actors were superstars in eighteenth- and nineteenth-century Japan. They were admired by passionate fans with an insatiable appetite for images of them\, fed by a publishing industry that mass-produced colorful woodblock prints of actors on stage that could be cheaply purchased as souvenirs of or substitutes for a theater experience. Japanese Prints of Kabuki Theater from the Collection of the University of Michigan Museum of Art presents a selection of these dramatic prints that connected fans to their idols\, including off- or backstage portrayals that satisfied fans’ voyeuristic curiosity about their favorite actors’ lives\, fantasy scenes of actors in unlikely groupings\, and even death portraits of especially famous actors. This introduction to the visual culture surrounding kabuki theater includes prints by major artists such as Utagawa Toyokuni (1769–1825)\, Utagawa Kunisada (1786–1865)\, Utagawa Kuniyoshi (1797–1861)\, and Toyohara Kunichika (1835–1900).\n\nLead support for this exhibition is provided by the University of Michigan Office of the Provost\, the National Endowment for the Arts\, the William T. and Dora G. Hunter Endowment\, AISIN\, the E. Rhodes and Leona B. Carpenter Foundation\, and the University of Michigan Center for Japanese Studies. Additional generous support is provided by the Japan Foundation and the University of Michigan Institute for Research on Women and Gender.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Traces: Reconstructing the History of a Chokwe Mask
DESCRIPTION:The exhibition Traces focuses on one artwork from the Museum's African holdings: a Chokwe mask that was collected in 1905 near the Angolan city of Dundo by the German explorer Leo Frobenius. Its presence at UMMA today—almost 7\,500 miles away from the context in which it was originally created\, used\, and valued—is the result of a long and tumultuous journey\, spanning a hundred years\, three continents\, and numerous people whose lives are forever connected to the artifact that passed through their hands.\nTraces tells the stories of some of these individuals as it reconstructs the “biography” of the mask. Drawing on the Museum’s African art collection and complemented with national loans\, the exhibition is informed by research that exposes the mask’s many layers and restores some of its historical complexity. Visitors will be able to look closely\, and in great detail\, at this intriguing artwork and its fascinating story.\nLead support for this exhibition is provided by the James and Vivian Curtis Endowment. Additional generous support is provided by the University of Michigan Center for the Education of Women's Frances and Sydney Lewis Visiting Leaders Fund and African Studies Center.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:Contemporary Chinese Theater and Theatrical Skits
DESCRIPTION:As a distinguished actor and director in the field of theater performance and production in China\, Li worked with the national level theater troupes and received many top prizes. In this lecture\, Li will present a lecture about contemporary theatre in China\, both mainstream and non-mainstream theatre. Mr. Li will also discuss Chinese theatrical skits (小品xiaopin)\, a unique form of contemporary Chinese theatre. Drawing from his own practical experiences\, Mr. Li will delve in the origin\, rules of creation and performance of theatrical skits as well as how theatrical skits refer to other forms of art.\n\nMr. LI Wenqi served as a National Class-A (top class) actor and director in the CPC Central Military Commission Political Department Drama Troupe before his retirement. He holds Bachelor’s degree from the Technology and Business University of China (1963-1968) and pursued advanced study at the Central Academy of Drama (1984-1987). Li has been working in the fields of theatre\, theatrical skit\, TV show and movie performance for more than forty years and captured numerous national prizes in theatrical performance. He also brought his work to the CCTV New Year’s Gala a number of times and performed in Europe and the U.S.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:HET Brown Bag Seminar | Lighting Up Collider Searches for Electroweak States
DESCRIPTION:Despite appearing in many extensions of the Standard Model\, uncolored electroweak particles face limited collider search prospects. For nearly degenerate electroweak multiplets where the lightest state is electrically neutral\, searches typically rely on pair production of the new states in association with visible radiation\, e.g. the mono-X final state. We show that for such new particles\, considering final state photon radiation can provide increased sensitivity. The additional kinematical information provided by including final state electromagnetic radiation more than compensates for the reduced statistics.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Medieval Lunch. Defining Faith for Ordinary Christians in the Fifth-Century Mediterranean
DESCRIPTION:My dissertation asks the question of how bishops and priests taught ordinary Christians about their faith in the fifth and sixth century\, when they no longer had the opportunity to educate adult converts to Christianity through catechesis.  In order to ask this question\, however\, I must first define the terms 'ordinary' and 'faith.'  In this talk\, I will explore what these terms meant for the preachers I study and in the larger context of the late antique Mediterranean.  I will show that there was a specific group of 'ordinary' people for whom preachers attempted to make their teachings on Christianity especially clear\, and that there was a generally agreed-upon definition of 'faith' (fides\, pistis) in late antiquity that individual preachers nevertheless manipulated in order to more effectively teach their specific congregations

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Structural Equation Modeling
DESCRIPTION:This workshop will help participants develop skills in defining\, estimating and testing graphical and latent variable models\, and structural equation models in particular. After a general overview of concepts\, regression approaches with observed variables will be demonstrated (e.g. path analysis). This will be followed by an overview of latent variable modeling techniques (‘factor analysis’)\, including categorical latent variables (mixture models). The second part of the course will focus on SEM generally\, including model construction\, interpretation\, and issues in assessing such models. Specific time may be spent on a popular class of SEM\, latent growth curve models\, and time permitting\, an overview of extensions and related techniques will be provided.
