SUMMARY:Film Screening:WCEE Film. BUCHA directed by Stanislav Tiunov
DESCRIPTION:*BUCHA* is based on the true story of an unlikely hero and refugee from Kazakhstan who\, in the spring of 2022\, risked his life to save hundreds of Ukrainians in Bucha and other cities and towns occupied by Russian troops. Konstantin Gudauskas\, a Lithuanian Jew born in Kazakhstan\, is living in Bucha where he was granted asylum by Ukraine. After the Russian invasion begins on February 24th\, 2022\, Konstantin is able to travel freely to the occupied territories and evacuate civilians thanks to his Kazakhstani passport. Over the following months\, he saves more than 200 people by leading them to safety and freedom\, and he observes first-hand the horrors of war and atrocities of the Russian occupation. Among those rescued by Konstantin is the famous Ukrainian composer Igor Poklad. Throughout this time\, he is advised and guided by Gaide Rizaeva\, a Crimean Tatar and employee of the GUR (Main Intelligence Directorate)\, who was twice held captive by Russian separatists and was on death row before escaping. She helps Konstantin\, but when he stops listening to her advice\, tragedy strikes.\n   \n   Trailer https://vimeo.com/1001322770/23ae970227\n   \n   Free and open to the public. Seating is on a first-come\, first-served basis.\n   \nIf there is anything we can do to make this event accessible to you\, please contact us at gosiak@umich.edu. Please be aware that advance notice is necessary as some accommodations may require more time for the university to arrange.

SUMMARY:Performance:Yunchan Lim\, piano
DESCRIPTION:After his astonishing performance of Rachmaninoff’s Piano Concerto No. 2 with Orchestre de Paris in March 2024\, we had to immediately invite Yunchan Lim to return for his UMS recital debut. The youngest musician to win the Van Cliburn Competition (at age 18) returns to close out the 24/25 Choral Union Series\, the third of three remarkable piano recital debuts this season. Lim performs Bach’s Goldberg Variations\, an incredible series of 30 transformations on a single theme that ranges from the ebullient to the introspective. The work’s epic scope transforms its beautiful\, simple theme through different time signatures\, textures\, and harmonies.\n\nPROGRAM\nAnton Webern Variations for Piano\, Op. 27\nJ.S. Bach Goldberg Variations\, BWV 998

SUMMARY:Performance:Cheryl Wheeler w/sg Kenny White
DESCRIPTION:\"Strong poetry\, complex melodies\, clever wit.\" –Sing Out\n\nIt has always seemed as if there were two Cheryl Wheelers\, with fans of the New England songwriter relishing watching the two tussle for control of the mic. There is poet Cheryl\, writer of some of the prettiest\, most alluring and intelligent ballads on the modern folk scene. And there is her evil twin\, comic Cheryl\, a trend defier and savagely funny social critic. The result is a series of delightful contrasts\, for really Cheryl Wheeler is a woman of many musical personalities—heart-wrenching romantic balladeer\, marvelous observational humorist\, poet of ordinary New England scenes and people\, committed activist\, irascible grump. Cheryl’s special guest tonight is her frequent partner in crime\, New York songwriter Kenny White.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:A Prison\, a Prisoner\, and a Prison Guard
DESCRIPTION:Join us for a multimedia exploration of the impact of prisons on countries and communities across the Middle East and North Africa (MENA) region through the lens of “prison art.” The exhibit delves into the dynamic interplay between incarceration and creative expression to make sense of carceral systems.\n\nBy presenting prison art from various countries in the MENA region\, including Algeria\, Egypt\, Iran\, Iraq\, Lebanon\, Palestine\, Sudan\, Syria\, and Yemen\, this exhibit unfolds as a “journey” into the prison system and demonstrates the ways in which art can be a tool of expression and reconciliation for survivors\, detainees’ families\, and society at large. It promotes drawing parallels between the prison experience in the region and worldwide\, highlights the intentionality of carceral systems\, and expands the conversation to include prison-impacted communities. Viewers are invited to navigate the cross-generational\, human experiences of imprisonment often obscured behind prison walls and within individuals.\n\nCurated by Sumaya Tabbah and Susan Aboeid of The Ḥafathah Collective\, this traveling exhibit was organized by U-M Students Organize for Syria (SOS) in partnership with U-M Library and with support from the U-M Arts Initiative.\n\nPlan to attend the related discussion\, \"Art\, Justice\, and Carcerality: The Role of Creative Expression in the Pursuit of Justice\,\" on February 6.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Being Mixed Race in a Mono-racially Organized World
DESCRIPTION:The exhibit \"Being Mixed Race in a Mono-racially Organized World: Interracial Identity in the U.S. and Around the World — What Research and Mixed Race People Tell Us\" is an exploration into the library's collections about the diversity of mixed race heritage. Through research\, narratives\, demographic data\, and a variety of visual and published materials\, explore multifaceted aspects of mixed race heritage with insights from many perspectives.\n\nThe 2020 U.S. Census illuminated a 276 percent increase in individuals who identify as \"two or more races\" since 2010. In recognition of the growing numbers of mixed race-identifying people at the University of Michigan\, throughout the country\, and across the globe\, we're excited to unveil this new exhibit — a unique exploration of changing demographics and intersectional identities.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:CREES Exhibition. Threading the Needle: Vestiges of Colonialism and Femininity\, an installation by Gluklya
DESCRIPTION:Gluklya’s work is a powerful example of socially engaged art at the intersections of gender\, class\, and cultural identity. By focusing on experiences of female textile workers in Kyrgyzstan\, the artist explores the often-overlooked stories of women affected by Soviet and post-Soviet colonialism. \"Threading the Needle: Vestiges of Colonialism and Femininity\" retells their stories using a diverse range of media — film\, sculpture\, watercolors\, and felt tapestries. Unfolding the implications of economic and societal pressures on women\, Gluklya explores issues of poverty\, isolation\, and exploitation among the garment workers.\n   \n   Personal stories are woven into a broader social context — such as the legacy of the \"Likbez\" (liquidation of illiteracy) campaign among women in Central Asia during Soviet rule and entrenched patriarchal traditions\, like \"Ala Kachuu\" (bride-kidnapping). This dynamic — where colonization and modernization intertwine the individual lives they touch — raises questions about cultural identity and the ethical borders of decolonized research.\n\nThis exhibition was curated by CREES alumna Dianne Beal (BA REES '79). See more of her work here: https://www.diannebeal.com/curatorial.\n   \nIf there is anything we can do to make this event accessible to you\, please contact us at crees@umich.edu. Please be aware that advance notice is necessary as some accommodations may require more time for the university to arrange.
