SUMMARY:Exhibition:Michelle Hinojosa: Logcabins
DESCRIPTION:Stamps Gallery commissioned Michelle Hinojosa (MFA\, 2023) to reimagine the pillars on Division Street that flank the Gallery. Hinojosa has created log cabin quilts to adorn the columns in front of Stamps Gallery. The log cabin quilts traditionally represent the warm hearth at the center of a home. This installation reflects on the interplay between home\, placemaking\, labor\, and intergenerational memories of migration. Rather than quilting cotton designed to softly embrace the body\, these quilts are sewn from outdoor grade\, UV-resistant polyester. The quilt is an ode to Hinojosa’s grandmother who illegally crossed the US/Mexico border holding her babies and her quilts. As she and her family drove across the United States to work in the fields of the Salinas Valley\, the quilts offered a safe space for her and her family. Hinojosa celebrates their resilience to her grandmother and elders while also drawing attention to precarity and violence experienced by refugees and migrants crossing the US-Mexico border in our present today.\nArtist’s bio:\nMichelle Inez Hinojosa is an artist\, educator\, and researcher whose work is informed by Indigenous and Latine/x/a/o studies. Born and raised in Texas\, she earned her Bachelor of Fine Arts degree in both drawing and painting and art education with a minor in art history at the University of North Texas. She holds a Master of Fine Arts from the University of Michigan. She works with quilting\, bead weaving\, embroidery\, jewelry\, transparent film installations\, painting\, ceramics\, and sculpture to honor and explore the history of migration in her family and humanize the current discourse around migration still occurring at the southern border. Alongside her artwork she maintains a writing practice to re-story\, re-make\, and re-claim the often subordinated narratives of Latinx\, Chicanx\, Mexican\, and Texican peoples. \n\nRecently\, Hinojosa was named an inaugural Creative Careers Artist in Residence at the University of Michigan\, she has also attended residencies at Mildred's Lane (Pennsylvania)\, Anderson Ranch Art Center (Aspen\, CO) and The Cedars Union (Dallas\, TX).

SUMMARY:Careers / Jobs:Breaking Down Performer and Creator Contracts: EXCEL Legal Workshop and Lunch Hour
DESCRIPTION:Do you have questions about analyzing or negotiating your performance contract? Then you should consider coming to this legal workshop and free lunch hour with Entertainment Lawyer and Managing Attorney Ari Solotoff. Ari is the Chair for the Theatre &amp\; PerformingArts Division for the American Bar Association. He is also an Adjunct Instructor for Legal Issues in the Arts at the University of Michigan\, School of Music\, Theatre\, and Dance\, University of Maine School of Law\, Indiana University\, O'Neil School\, and the Eastman School of Music. Ari's practice uniquely blends representation of a diverse range of clients\, whoare known for defining and defying contemporary culture (Rock &amp\; RollHall of Fame producers\; Billboard-charting catalogs\; Pulitzer Prize-winning literary authors\; Top 20 podcast producers\; and today's leading composers\, concert artists\, and ensembles)\, and copyright-driven cases (valuation and sale of music catalogs\; digital therapeutic use of prescription music\; scripted\, unscripted\, and documentary television and motion picture development and production\; theatrical adaptations\; literary rights acquisitions\; and cutting edge issues in comedy recording rights and distribution). Of particular note\, Ari has been sought out for his work with BIPOC and LGBTQ+ artists and their estates\, regularly championing issues of equity\, inclusion\, and representation on stage\, online\, and on radio airwaves.
