His presentation will include how he started creating art\, his influences\, education\, and the start of his career by stepping\, almost by accident\, into the realm of Indigenous Futurisms. His artwork from the past 10-15 years to current works will be showcased.\n\nRyan Singer is a Diné (Navajo) artist-painter based in Albuquerque\, NM. His artwork draws from his Navajo heritage and incorporates pop culture elements\, including science fiction imagery. Ryan weaves stories from his childhood memories with nostalgic iconography. Although he is associated with the \"Indigenous Futurism\" movement\, he has been drawing Star Wars characters since 1977. He enjoys creating portrait realism of Native subjects with a contemporary appeal\, and his artwork is included in several museum and private collections worldwide. Ryan has received numerous awards from the renowned SWAIA's Santa Fe Indian Market. He earned his BFA in Art Studio from the University of New Mexico\, where he participated in a collaborative lithography class with the Tamarind Institute. He is working on his MFA in Painting & Drawing at the University of New Mexico.\n\nBorn in Cedar City\, Utah\, but originally from Tuba City\, Arizona\, Ryan is of the Tódich’iinii (Bitter Water) clan and born for the Kinya’aani (Towering House) clan. Growing up in various parts of the Navajo Reservation\, Ryan often reflects on his childhood through his depictions of science fiction and pop culture icons. Other notable works include the popular \"Mutton Stew\" painting\, modeled after Andy Warhol's \"Campbell's Tomato Soup Can\" series with a Navajo twist\, and the iconic \"Wagon Burner\,\" which has become his trademark symbol. He has participated in exhibitions featuring this new genre of art and co-curated an exhibition about the \"Long Walk\" with Tony Abeyta at the Navajo Nation Museum.

Institutions are now deeply enmeshed in complex technological systems\, platforms\, and services across all parts of a museum’s operations and practices. Today\, the nature of collections themselves is implicated as they are increasingly ‘born digital.’ These shifts all require highly skilled labor\, new strategies\, policies\, and debate to ensure that the transformations serve the museum’s community and long-term interests.\n\nThis talk will explore trust\, attention\, digital memory\, ephemerality\, and the fragility of new cultural artefacts\, and conversely\, maintenance\, longevity\, and the need for bold pan-institutional and sector-wide initiatives\, new skills\, and literacies.\n\nhttps://ummsp.rackham.umich.edu/tribe-event/museums-technologies-and-civic-transformations/ UID:132845-21871952@events.umich.edu URL:https://events.umich.edu/event/132845 CLASS:PUBLIC STATUS:CONFIRMED CATEGORIES:Film,Graduate School,Interdisciplinary,Media,Museum,UMMA,Visual Arts LOCATION:Museum of Art - Helmut Stern Auditorium CONTACT: END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20250305T120023 DTSTART;TZID=America/Detroit:20250319T183000 DTEND;TZID=America/Detroit:20250319T213000 SUMMARY:Exercise / Fitness:Swing Ann Arbor: Weekly Beginner Lesson + Social Dance DESCRIPTION:Swing Ann Arbor hosts a beginner drop-in lesson and social dance every Wednesday!
