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:\"Indigestible over days and days”: Situating Transliteration in Dictée and Commons - James Kiselik (PhD student\, English)
DESCRIPTION:The Poetry & Poetics Workshop invites you to join us for an upcoming workshop:\n\n \"Indigestible over days and days”: Situating Transliteration in Dictée and Commons\n\nJames Kiselik (PhD student\, English)\n\n3154 Angell Hall\n\nFriday\, March 29th\, 2024\n\n11am - 12:30pm\n\nRefreshments will be served.\n\nPlease RSVP here to receive the pre-circulated paper via email.\n\nPaper will be circulated two weeks prior to the workshop.\n\n\n\nAbstract: I develop an account of transliteration that engenders the cross-fertilization of translingual writing and historiography in Theresa Hak Kyung Cha’s DICTEE (1982) and Myung Mi Kim’s COMMONS (2002). Transliteration\, I argue\, is a formal relation that foregrounds how different dimensions of text (e.g.\, sound\, sense) can each be transparent or opaque to various degrees\; such partial opacity makes visible what some readers cannot understand. I propose a transliterative reading method attuned to historical sites where systems of unevenly visible meaning interact and ramify. My goal is to inquire into the mutual inflections in these works between Korean-English transliterations and a modern Korean historiographical system that has the structure of a transliteration. Reading DICTEE\, I trace the translingual resonances of a single transliterated word (“demo”) to show how this term is retroactively established as central to the historiographical system. Reading the transliterations in COMMONS\, I propose an explanation for the thirty-nine conspicuous three-digit numbers that have bewildered the poem’s critics for over two decades: the aforementioned historiographical system has been revised to further privilege transliteration’s opacities in response to the harms of transparent nationalist histories.\n\n\nThe Poetry & Poetics Workshop is a Rackham Interdisciplinary Workshop committed to providing a forum in which professors and graduate students can exchange works-in-progress and explore recent work in the fields of poetry\, poetics\, and lyric theory.
