SUMMARY:Exhibition:Exile and the Mentor-student Relationship: A Force for Resistance and Decolonization
DESCRIPTION:This small exhibit features work in reproduction by Iraqi artists Hanaa Malallah and Mohammed Karim\, as well as an original painting by Karim. Both Malallah and Karim were significantly influenced by their mentors during and after their training in Iraq\, and continue to share their work and ideas with a new generation today.\n\nIn the United States\, Iraq is typically spoken about in a passive position: colonized\, under despotic rule\, occupied. Post-occupied. Through connections between mentors and students\, and students who became mentors to new students\, Iraqi artists have been a force for anti-colonialism\, claiming their heritage and its future for themselves.\n\nView the exhibit Monday-Friday in the Fine Arts Library\, Tappan Hall\, 855 S. University Ave.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Garden Repairs
DESCRIPTION:About the installation:\nGarden Repairs is an installation of paper textiles that loosely narrate the life cycle of plants. It considers the process of germination as a site for the cross-pollination of ideas from diverse disciplines around the future of the built environment. \n\nAbout the artist:\nSusan Goethel Campbell creates multi-disciplinary work that considers the contemporary landscape to be an emergent system where nature\, culture\, and the engineered environment are indistinguishable from one another. Central to her practice is the collection\, documentation\, and observation of seasonal change and ephemera in both natural and artificial environments. Her work is realized in several formats\, including installation\, video\, prints\, and drawings\, as well as projects that engage communities to look at local and global environments.\n\nCampbell earned an MFA in printmaking from Cranbrook Academy of Art. Her work has been exhibited internationally in Belgium\, Germany\, Switzerland\, and Slovenia and nationally throughout the US\, including the National Museum of Women in the Arts\, Queens Art Museum\, Crystal Bridges Museum\, Museum of Contemporary Art Detroit\, Grand Rapids Art Museum\, the Detroit Institute of Arts\, The Drawing Center\, and The International Print Center New York. In 2009 she was one of 18 artists selected for the inaugural Kresge Artist Fellowship.\n\nCampbell has been awarded residencies at the Banff Centre for the Arts\, the Flemish Center for Graphic Arts\, the Jentel Foundation\, Beisinghoff Print Residency\, and the Print Research Institute of North Texas. She taught studio art for 15 years at the College for Creative Studies in Detroit and has been a visiting artist in numerous institutions in the United States and abroad. Her work is in the collection of the National Museum of Women in the Arts\, New York Public Library\, Detroit Institute of Arts\, Toledo Museum of Art\, and the University of Michigan Special Collections Library.\n\nThis project is made possible by a grant from the Mellon Foundation as part of the Institute for the Humanities' multi-year High Stakes Art initiative.

SUMMARY:Livestream / Virtual:Hirshhorn Museum and Sculpture Garden in partnership with LRCCS present: Artist Talk: Contemporary Photography in China
DESCRIPTION:Join the webinar at https://umich.zoom.us/j/94123750186\n\nComplete event details at https://hirshhorn.si.edu/event/artist-talk-contemporary-photography-in-china/\n\nIn a special online talk\, five of the most groundbreaking artists working in China over the past three decades—Lin Tianmiao\, Rong Rong\, Song Dong\, Xing Danwen\, and Zhang Peili—will join Hirshhorn Museum and Sculpture Garden assistant curator Betsy Johnson and University of Michigan postdoctoral research fellow Meng Zhao in conversation.\n\nThis program is inspired by the Hirshhorn’s recent exhibition A Window Suddenly Opens: Contemporary Photography in China\, which brought together photography by twenty-five of the most innovative artists working in China over the past thirty years. During this time of swift cultural transformation\, Chinese artists embraced the immediacy of photography to document the changes around them as well as their own thoughts and actions as they shifted their focus away from the collective to prioritize self-expression. This program will bring together key figures in the development of experimental photography in China to look back at these decades and discuss how they came to understand photography as a conceptual art form and the impact of this understanding on their communities and artistic practices.\n\nThis program was initiated by The Triune Brain collective and is presented in partnership with the University of Michigan Lieberthal-Rogel Center for Chinese Studies and the Hirshhorn Museum.\n\nInterpreting provided by Eriksen Translations.
