SUMMARY:Performance:Matt the Electrician
DESCRIPTION:Matt the Electrician indeed used to be an electrician\, but now he's focusing instead on a music career that has spanned the course of two decades\, a dozen records\, and literally thousands of shows. It’s folk music for a modern age\, rooted in lyrics that focus on the realities and challenges of the 21st century as opposed to\, say\, the old-school thrill of hopping trains.“I don’t generally write mining disaster songs\,”he explains. “I tend to write about things that have happened to me and my family. Songs about the small things in life\, which\, to me\, are really the big things.” Throughout 2015 and 2016\, he’s releasing a string of 7-inch vinyl singles. Years before moving to Texas and launching his career as a boundary-breaking\, working-class folk musician\, Matt Sever grew up on the West Coast. His parents\, a union carpenter and a seamstress\, played John Denver and Pete Seeger songs on the family record player\, and Matt spent his earliest years surrounded by the things that would later fill his own music: acoustic guitars\, timeless melodies\, lyrics that celebrated the joys and heartaches of everyday life\, and above all else a strong work ethic.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Exhibit: The Many Faces and Figures of the Four Sons in the Passover Haggadah

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Gifts of Art presents Abstraction: A Graphic Study
DESCRIPTION:Chicago-based artist Natasha Kohli uses abstract acrylic paintings to convey her messages of positivity and love by pouring that energy into each piece. As a self-taught artist\, Kohli is not bound to school taught rules but rather follows instinct and spontaneity. This also allows her to freely create her own processes. Moments of introspection and feelings of acceptance are what Kohli wishes to offer viewers of her work\, and these goals are inspired by her deep love of spirituality and Bikram yoga.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Gifts of Art presents Concrete Ephemera: Street Art Captured
DESCRIPTION:David Zinn has been drawing on sidewalks for well over a decade\, using chalk and charcoal to create anamorphic 3D creatures which\, when viewed at a precise angle\, appear to exist in the real world. They often incorporate parts of the landscape and found objects\, such as cracks in concrete or leaves on the ground. He is inspired by a desire to place cheerful art underfoot in unexpected places and to embrace the temporary nature of all things. For this exhibit\, photographs of his street art installations will be on display. Zinn is a lifelong Michigander with a degree in creative writing from the U-M Residential College\, and he worked for many years as a children’s radio host on WCBN and Michigan Radio. Zinn will also give an artist demonstration alongside a musical performance by Magdalen Fossum in the University Hospital Courtyard on Thurs\, July 21\, 2016 from 12:00-1:00 pm.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Gifts of Art presents Landscapes Imagined: Oil on Canvas
DESCRIPTION:Victoria Veedell creates atmospheric landscape paintings in oil on canvas\, capturing the fleeting moments of light in nature. The root of her work is an emotional reaction to the environment\, implying landscapes not necessarily seen but felt.

Travel is an important component of her work as it allows her to observe and compare gradients of color\, light and atmosphere in different geographic locations.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Gifts of Art presents Works by Belle Kogan: First Female Industrial Designer
