SUMMARY:Exhibition:Elizabeth Boyd-Hartmann Dizik Exhibition
DESCRIPTION:This body of work represents a playful exploration of form\, color\, and scale through the lens of cellular shapes. Inspired by the complex patterns of biological life\, the pieces are a celebration of growth\, transformation\, and the joy of experimentation. The use of non-precious materials\, such as wood balls and paint\, allowed for a liberating approach to composition and color\, while the spherical forms and circular panels evoke the look of petri dishes—symbolizing both scientific curiosity and organic development.\nBorn in Detroit\, Elizabeth is a multidisciplinary artist and mother based in the metro Detroit area\, where she works from a studio in her home. With a background in bench jewelry\, her earlier work focused on studio jewelry and was represented by Galerie Noel Guyomarc’h in Montreal.\nElizabeth’s work has been exhibited both locally and internationally. She holds a BA in Jewelry Design\, with First Class Honours\, from Central Saint Martins in London\, a BFA from the University of Michigan\, and an MFA from Cranbrook Academy of Art\, where she specialized in Metalsmithing and Architecture. Her diverse practice spans jewelry\, sculpture\, and installation\, blending materials and techniques to explore themes of production\, growth\, transformation\, and organic form.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Redefining the Crown
DESCRIPTION:In Winter 2025\, the Lane Hall exhibit space will feature a portraiture series titled Redefining the Crown showcasing the powerful stories of six Black breast cancer survivors.\n\nBased on a photo essay by U-M Faculty Versha Pleasant (MD/MPH) and Ava Purkiss (PhD) in Medicine at Michigan\, this exhibition examines the cultural and personal significance of hair within Black communities\, particularly through the lens of breast cancer treatment and recovery. The term \"crown\" is deeply symbolic in Black culture\, signifying beauty\, strength\, and identity. The featured photo essay by photographer Tafari Stevenson-Howard captures the intimate journeys of Ann Chatman\, Tanisha Kennedy\, Felecia McDaniel\, Shantell Elaine McCoy\, Tamara Lynn Myles\, and Veleria Banks.\n\nThrough their narratives and portraits\, the exhibit examines how these women have navigated the profound impact of hair loss caused by chemotherapy\, inviting the audience to witness their stories with radical empathy. It explores the cultural pride and personal identity intricately tied to their hair\, and how these elements are redefined amidst their battles with breast cancer.\n\nThe exhibit will be on view from January 21\, 2025 to August 8\, 2025. This exhibition is presented with support from IRWG\, the Department of Women's and Gender Studies\, and Michigan Medicine. \n\nLocated on the first floor of Lane Hall (204 S. State Street)\, the Exhibit Space is free and open to the public\, M-F\, 9am-4pm.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:The Bibliophile and the Library: Private-Press Books from the Collection of Bill Heidrich
DESCRIPTION:View beautifully illustrated books that stand as remarkable testaments to the work of twentieth-century small private presses\, which\, in contrast to the trend of mass commercialization\, produced limited editions that celebrated the uniqueness of manual craftsmanship. Features such as exquisite typeface design\, letterpress printing\, handmade paper\, traditional illustration techniques like woodcut and engraving\, and the inclusion of original art by renowned artists highlight the presses' dedication to artistry and detail.\n\nThe display opens with an edition of \"The Works of Geoffrey Chaucer\,\" published in 1896 by William Morris at his Kelmscott Press\, a pivotal press that greatly influenced the development of the private press movement as a means of preserving and revitalizing the fine printing and art traditions of the past. Additionally\, the exhibit includes some examples of artist’s proofs\, offering a glimpse into the intricate creative process behind these exceptional works.\n\nThese books are on loan from the collection of Bill Heidrich\, a long-time supporter of the University of Michigan Library.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:A Gathering
DESCRIPTION:Welcome. Make Yourself At Home.\n \nA Gathering brings together the newest works of art to enter UMMA’s collection — many on display here for the first time. \n \nAs a free\, public museum\, UMMA staff takes care of art for the benefit of the community and society at large. The works on view in this exhibition\, all brought into the Museum between 2019 and the present\, shows how institutions like UMMA are becoming more permeable to societal challenges\, and more nimble in responding to them in service to all in their communities. In this exhibition you will find works that reflect on how global migrations\, race\, gender\, and ecological change shape the way we engage with the world and inform our visions for the future.\n \nThis collection of artistic engagements with issues give us tools to envision who we want to be as individuals\, as a museum\, and as a society\, connected to one another across space and experience.\n \nSo gather here to take in these latest works of art brought here for you. Gather here to be engulfed in their forms and meanings\, to discuss their takes\, to learn\, to disagree. Gather to relax\, make a friend\, drink a coffee\, finish the daily Wordle. Gather to feel full\, to be moved and inspired by all the possible imaginations of what is yet to come.\n \nCurated by Félix Zamora Gómez Irving Stenn\, Jr. Fellow in Public Humanities & Museum Pedagogy\n\nLead support for this exhibition is provided by Lizzie and Jonathan Tisch\, the Richard and Rosann Noel Endowment\, and the University of Michigan Office of the Provost.\n

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:Distinguished Poet in Residence Craft Lecture: Your Own Singing School: How to Create Your Own Tradition
DESCRIPTION:Login here (no pre-registration needed): https://tinyurl.com/ZellWriters24\n\nSeats are limited and are offered on a first come\, first served basis\; please arrive early to secure a spot.\n\nZell Visiting Writers Series craft lectures are free and open to the public\, and will be offered both virtually (via Zoom) and in person (in The Robert Hayden Conference Room\, Angell Hall #3222). Please contact kimjulie@umich.edu with any questions or accommodation needs.\n\nOf his lecture\, Ilya says\, \"How do poets learn in solitude? How do they negotiate their relationships/non-relationships to larger traditions of writers who came before them? How do poets influence each other? What is this conversation across time and space that happens between poets? What is our place in this conversation? What\, indeed\, is that strange thing: an education of a poet? There is no singing school but studying monuments of its own magnificence\, wrote Yeats. So\, in our time together we will look at some very practical devices\, overhear some echoes\, and consider how to discover your own singing school—your own literary tradition—and how to enter and change that tradition. Expect to leave the room with many ideas about how poets learn from other poets and how it can help your own work develop and change into the future.\" \n\nIlya Kaminsky was born in Odessa\, former Soviet Union\, in 1977\, and arrived to the U.S. in 1993\, when his family was granted asylum by the government.

SUMMARY:Other:Leaves Under the Lens
DESCRIPTION:The leaf surface is a dynamic landscape where tiny\, specialized structures help plants interact with the world around them. Let’s bring this world into view! Join us for an exhibit that highlights the complex and often beautiful anatomy of leaves from the Matthaei collection. Plants throughout the conservatory will be paired with microscope photographs and micro-CT scans that illustrate the otherwise invisible structures that protect leaves from chewing insects\, absorb (or repel!) water\, and even recruit “bodyguards”. You won’t look at leaves the same way again! \n\nThis project is a collaboration between MBGNA and the Weber and Vasconcelos labs in the Department of Ecology and Evolutionary Biology\, led by PhD student Rosemary Glos.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Statistics Department Michael Woodroofe Lecture Series: Nicolai Meinshausen\, Professor\, Department of Statistics\, ETH Zurich.
DESCRIPTION:Abstract: Distributional regression aims to estimate the full conditional distribution of a target variable\, given covariates. Traditional approaches include linear or tree-based quantile regression. Modern computational-intensive approaches include diffusion models and flow matching. It is shown how a simple extension of the absolute error loss of standard regression yields a light-weight generative model that can easily be extended to very high-dimensional targets. It also can be used in an instrumental variable setting to estimate the full conditional distribution under interventions on the treatment variable. Results are very robust to the chosen model size and there are advantages of a distributional fit even if we only care about conditional mean estimation\, whether observational or interventional. The advantages include robustness properties under mild extrapolation \nin a regression setting and better identifiability results for causal effect estimation. \n\nhttps://people.math.ethz.ch/~nicolai/

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Unsettling Histories: Legacies of Slavery and Colonialism
DESCRIPTION:Organized as a response to the Museum’s recent acquisition of Titus Kaphar’s Flay (James Madison)\, this upcoming reinstallation of one of our most prominent gallery spaces forces us to grapple with our collection of European and American art\, 1650-1850.\n \nIn recent times\, growing public awareness of the continued reverberations of the legacy of slavery and colonization has challenged museums to examine the uncomfortable histories contained in our collections\, and challenged the public to probe the choices we make about those stories. Choices about which artists you see in our galleries\, choices about what relevant facts we share about the works\, and choices about what - out of an infinite number of options - we don’t say about them.\n \nPieces in this exhibition were made at a time when the world came to be shaped by the ideologies of colonial expansion and Western domination. And yet\, that history and the stories of those marginalized do not readily appear in the still lives and portraits on display here. By grappling with what is visible and what remains hidden\, we are forced to examine whose stories and histories are prioritized and why.  \n \nIn this online exhibition\, you can explore our efforts to deeply question the Museum’s collection and our own past complicity in favoring colonial voices. In the Museum gallery\, which will open in early 2021\, you’ll be able to experience the changes we’re making to the physical space to highlight a more honest version of European and American history. \n \nBy challenging our own practice\, and continuing to add to what we know and what we write about the works we display\, UMMA tells a more complex and more complete story of this nation - one that unsettles\, and fails to settle for\, simple narratives. \n \n“Invisible things are not necessarily ‘not there’.... Certain absences are so stressed\, so ornate\, so planned\, they call attention to themselves\; arrest us with intentionality and purpose\, like neighborhoods that are defined by the population held away from them.” \n \n— Toni Morrison\n\nLead support for Unsettling Histories: Legacies of Slavery and Colonialism is provided by the University of Michigan Office of the Provost\, the U-M Arts Initiative\, and the Susan and Richard Gutow Endowed Fund.\n

SUMMARY:Exhibition:8-BIT Music Exhibit: The Gallery
DESCRIPTION:MORE INFO: https://sites.lsa.umich.edu/8bitmusic/ \n\nThe 8-Bit Music Exhibit is a week-long exploration of the creation of the nostalgic\, retro tunes many have grown up with and come to love\, as well as a showcase of how such music has been reclaimed and repurposed for continued existence in the modern world. The gallery plans to guide viewers through a history of 8-bit music\, its significance to media and video games of its time\, and notable figures that influenced the legacy of the niched genre. In the workshop\, participants will learn how modern chiptune artists create music from Game Boys and the production software LSDJ\, and have the opportunity to create music of their own design. Throughout the end of the exhibit week\, we will celebrate the historic and modern legacies of 8-bit music in a set of live performances produced by Norah\, a seasoned chiptune artist.\n\nOur goal in developing this exhibit is to highlight 8-bit/chiptune music as a unique form of digital art celebrated for its sound\, cultural significance\, and innovation. Throughout the lifespans of the original hardware supporting this music\, artists often faced limitations due to hardware constraints. These difficulties led to early video game industry composers inventing new techniques and methods for music creation that have evolved over time and remain influential today.\n\nTHANK YOU to our co-sponsors and partners for your support in the creation of this event!\n-> U-M LSA Technology Services Digital Scholarship (https://lsa.umich.edu/technology-services/services/research-tools/digital-scholarship.html)\n-> U-M Digital Studies Institute (https://www.digitalstudies.umich.edu/)\n-> U-M Arts Initiative (https://arts.umich.edu/arts-initiative)\n-> Neutral Zone (https://www.neutral-zone.org/event-list/2025/4/11/free-tech-workshop-chiptune-8-bit)\n-> Ann Arbor District Libraries (https://aadl.org/)\n-> Ypsilanti District Libraries (https://www.ypsilibrary.org/)\n-> Pinball Pete's in Ann Arbor (https://www.pinballpetes.org/copy-of-east-lansing-location)\n-> Video Game Music Club (VGMC) (https://maizepages.umich.edu/organization/vgmc)\n-> WolvSec (https://wolvsec.org/)\n-> LGBTQ+ Michigan (https://websites.umich.edu/~lgbtqmichigan/#)\n-> Ann Arbor Fighting Game Community at the University of Michigan (FGC) (https://maizepages.umich.edu/organization/a2fgc)
