SUMMARY:Exhibition:Power Contained: The Art of Authority in Central and West Africa
DESCRIPTION:Before colonization\, complex hierarchical societies flourished in Central and West Africa. At their summits were a select few—kings and chiefs whose authority was derived from their direct connection to powerful ancestors and predecessors. These rulers were wrapped in expensive textiles or costly furs\, and covered in beads and precious metals\, materials that not only signaled their extraordinary status\, but were also intended to safely contain the great power they wielded. The famous minkisi (meaning “power figure”) sculptures of Central Africa were similarly activated through the addition of charged materials. Textiles\, animal skin\, metal\, and beads allowed the lifeless wooden carvings to be activated by local spiritual leaders in order to communicate with the realm of the ancestors and spirits. This exhibition explores the parallels between the adornment of the king’s physical body and minkisi. Drawing on works from UMMA’s collection and several loans\, the exhibition demonstrates how authority was expressed and power contained across a range of historical cultures in Nigeria\, Ghana\, the Democratic Republic of the Congo and Cameroon.\n\nLead support for Power Contained: The Art of Authority in Central and West Africa is provided by the University of Michigan Office of the Provost and the African Studies Center.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Victors for Art: Michigan's Alumni Collectors—Part II: Abstraction
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. \n\nThis two-part exhibition presents works collected by a diverse group of alumni that represent the breadth of the University and over seventy years of graduating classes. Part II: Abstraction\, on view in the A. Alfred Taubman Gallery July 1 through October 29\, showcases modern and contemporary art by Pablo Picasso\, Alberto Giacometti\,\nLouise Nevelson\, Christo\, Lorna Simpson\, José Parlá\, and Do Ho Su\, among others. It also features a fifth-century Korean roof end tile and an Amish quilt\, as well as a work by an Inuit master—thus inviting visitors to explore the pleasures of abstraction across a wide range of media\, eras\, and genres. UMMA extends Part II: Abstraction into the Irving Stenn\, Jr. Family Gallery from August 19 through November 26\, 2017\, with the site-specific installation of Random International’s LED-light and motion-sensing dynamic sculpture\, Swarm Study / II. Victors for Art 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 Art: Michigan's Alumni Collectors is provided by the University of Michigan Office of the Provost\, Michigan Medicine\, 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:Lecture / Discussion:Ross China Initiatives and the Lieberthal-Rogel Center for Chinese Studies present \"Climbing Life's Mountains\"
DESCRIPTION:Wang Shi 王石\nFounder\, Vanke 万科\nLieberthal-Rogel Distinguished Visitor\n\nNo matter where life takes you\, you will encounter mountains that challenge you to tackle issues from new perspectives. The art of overcoming obstacles is a prominent trademark of today’s most successful international business figures. To address this topic with details of his own personal “mountain climbing” life experiences\, Ross China Initiatives and the Lieberthal-Rogel Center for Chinese Studies is proud to welcome Mr. Wang Shi  王石 to the Ross School of Business. Of the three tallest mountains Wang has come up against\, namely ascending Mt. Everest at age 52 in 2003\, initiating an environmental protection program following his climb of Mt. Kilimanjaro\, and studying at Harvard with limited exposure to English\, he cites his time in Cambridge as the most demanding peak to scale. Wang’s talk will center around his strategies for approaching and overcoming life’s mountains.\n\nIn 1984\, Wang Shi founded China Vanke Co.\, Ltd.\, a real estate development company. Under his leadership\, Vanke has grown into one of the most successful real estate development companies in the world as well as a pioneer in China’s green home construction. In addition to his role with Vanke\, Wang serves as a chairman for numerous enterprises. In 2015\, he was entitled “The Most Influential Entrepreneur in China” by Hurun Rich List because of his great sense of social responsibility and international initiatives. He splits his spare time between philanthropy and involvement in the rowing community\, serving as the chairman of the Asian Rowing Federation.\n\nMr. Wang Shi is one of the most respected business leaders in China\, and it is truly an honor to welcome him to Michigan Ross. This Wednesday\, October 18th\, doors will open at 1:30pm. Wang’s presentation will be held from 2-3pm followed by a discussion panel and Q&A session ending at 4pm. We hope you are able to join us in listening to this distinguished speaker as he shares his inspiring experiences in the business world and beyond.
