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:Workshop / Seminar:Liquidity and Investment in General Equilibrium
DESCRIPTION:This paper studies the implications of trading frictions in financial markets for firms’ investment and dividend choices\, and their aggregate consequences. When equity shares trade in frictional asset markets\, the firm’s problem is time-inconsistent\, and it is as if it faces quasi-hyperbolic discounting. The transmission of trading frictions to the real economy crucially depends on the firms’ ability to commit. In a calibrated economy without commitment\, larger trading frictions imply lower capital and production. In contrast\, if firms can commit\, trading frictions affect asset prices but have no aggregate effect on capital and production. Our findings rationalize several empirical regularities on liquidity and investment.\n\nThis talk is presented by the Macroeconomics Seminar\, sponsored by the Department of Economics with generous gifts given through the Michael Beauregard Fund for Macroeconomics and the Economics Strategic Fund.

SUMMARY:Performance:\"bellvoix\" World Premiere by Julie Zhu\, carillon
DESCRIPTION:*bellvoix* is a site-specific performance at U-M's Burton Memorial Tower. Instead of broadcasting songs\, the carillon has a speaking voice. Artist and performer Julie Zhu talks through a convolution of her voice and bell sounds to passersby\, surprising them with specific details surveilled from the tower\, goading them into conversation. \n\nWhen a carillon cyborg finally acquires language\, what will she say? How might listeners – who don’t have a choice whether to listen – react to the authority of a public musical instrument who necessarily has opinions? *bellvoix* makes obvious the specific social contract between the carillon and the community it serves\, woos\, or antagonizes. Who is the carillon? And why do we bell?\n\nThis world premiere of \"bellvoix\" (2023) by Julie Zhu\, President's Postdoctoral Fellow and Assistant Professor (performing arts technology)\, is a 30 minute performance. It is co-sponsored by the U-M Arts Initiative and part of the series \"XR/XF: Extended Realities/Extended Feminisms\" with the Digital Studies Institute. \n\n***\nThe Charles Baird Carillon\, an instrument of 53 bronze bells\, is located inside the Burton Memorial Tower. The largest bell\, which strikes the hour\, weighs 12 tons\, while the smallest bell\, 4½ octaves above\, weighs just 15 pounds.\n\nThirty-minute recitals are performed on the Charles Baird Carillon at noon every weekday that classes are in session\, followed by visitor Q&A with the carillonist. The bell chamber may be accessed via a combination of elevator and stairs. Take the elevator to the highest floor possible (floor 8)\, and then climb two flights of stairs (39 steps) to the bell chamber (floor 10). Earplugs are available from the carillonist upon request. Be prepared to walk on ice and snow in the bell chamber during winter. Built in 1936\, the Charles Baird Carillon is not ADA accessible. Visitors with mobility concerns are invited to visit the Lurie Carillon: https://smtd.umich.edu/facilities/ann-and-robert-h-lurie-carillon/
