Modernist Glass from the Polish Past DESCRIPTION:The glass in this rare collection represents the work of renowned Polish glass artists and designers created between 1960 and 1980. Known as Polskie szkło artystyczne (Polish art glass)\, the works were produced in glass factories in southern Poland and are a feature of many homes throughout Central Europe. The glass masters were trained in schools of art and design and many achieved international fame during their lifetimes. \n\nThe collectors\, Endi Poskovic and his wife Julie Anne Visco\, began acquiring the glass in 2015-16 while Endi was a Fulbright Scholar and Visiting Professor at the Jan Matejko Academy of Fine Arts in Kraków. Scouring flea markets\, antique shops\, and websites\, they continue to acquire pieces and build the collection to this day. We are grateful to them for making this remarkable exhibit possible at CCPS and WCEE.\n\nOrganized by the Copernicus Center for Polish Studies\, this exhibition is co-sponsored by the Penny W. Stamps School of Art & Design and Weiser Center for Europe and Eurasia.\n\nLearn more about the exhibition and the artists at https://myumi.ch/8eVrM\n\nThe exhibit opens on September 15\, 2023 in 1010 Weiser Hall\, 500 Church Street\, Ann Arbor.

Pinto (School of Social Work) invites audiences to take part in an exhibition that examines his embodied gender states based on his intersecting childhood traumas and life experiences. In \"My Gender States\,\" Pinto shares his deep and abiding grief related to the childhood death of his sister and the subsequent gender embodiments that ensued stemming from the belief that he was his deceased sister. \n\nUsing autoethnography\, Pinto created a one-person play (\"Marília\,\" 2015) and site-specific installation performance (\"The Realm of the Dead\,\" 2022). These works explore the intersecting and shaping layers of childhood traumas\, gender states\, and his life experience—a story of the struggles\, fears\, and accomplishments he experienced as an immigrant to the United States. In \"Realm\,\" audiences circulated around 25 assemblage sculptures created from vintage suitcases and trunks that evoked the cemetery where Pinto’s sister was buried and the literal and figurative baggage that he\, a queer immigrant\, carried with him. \"My Gender States\" is a selection of materials\, images\, and texts from \"Marília\" and \"Realm\" curated to more closely examine the themes of gender and sexuality in these works. Collected are portrayals of Pinto’s gender states\, gender confusion\, gender embodiments\, gender doubt\, and reactions to gender stigma. \n\nRogério M. Pinto (Brazilian\, American\, b. 1965\, Belo Horizonte\, Brazil) is a University Diversity Social Transformation Professor\; Berit Ingersoll-Dayton Collegiate Professor of Social Work\; and Professor of Theatre and Drama\, School of Music\, Theatre & Dance\, at the University of Michigan. Pinto uses art-based methods to conduct community-engaged research in the United States and Brazil.\n\nThe photographs used in \"My Gender States\" are by Emerson Granillo (American\, b. 1987)\; David Newton (American\, b. 1993)\; and Nicholas Williams (American\, b. 1994). The \"Realm\" assemblages featured in \"My Gender States\" were conceived by Pinto and designed by him\, in collaboration with Sarah Tanner. \n\n\"My Gender States\" is on display in the Lane Hall Exhibit Space (first floor\, 204 S State St) from January 23\, to August 13\, 2024. The exhibit is free and open to the public\, M-F\, 9am-4pm.\n\nHosted by the Institute for Research on Women and Gender and the Women’s and Gender Studies Department.

Unlike previous U-M Library exhibits that focused on the artist at work\, this display shows him in informal and familial environments\, revealing a depth and complexity of character that are often overshadowed by his fame and professional achievements. The photographs and documents displayed showcase a variety of emotional tones — warmth\, humor\, tenderness\, and passion. Candid and relaxed more than posed\, they are similar to most people's pictures in old family albums.\n\nCulled from the Orson Welles-Beatrice Welles materials that are part of the Mavericks & Makers collection within the U-M Library’s Special Collections Research Center\, each photo or letter tells a story of a connection Welles held dearly. The materials included are from two periods: the late 1920s and early 1930s\, when Welles was a teenager\, and the mid-1950s to early 1960s\, during the early years of his marriage to his third wife\, Paola Mori. \n\nIt should be noted that Welles’s personal life was messy at best. Other collections housed at U-M that include personal materials related to Welles document his first and second marriages\, including the Welles-Feder Collection and the Wilson-Welles Collection. The items on display here were saved by his third and final child\, Beatrice Welles\, and reflect her childhood memories of her parents.\n\nThe exhibit is available during Hatcher Gallery Exhibit Room hours (https://umlib.us/hatchergalleryexhibits).

Whether designing furniture or developing the ideas for sculpture\, the process has always been the same. Ideas begin as\nscribbled images that are then stretched and refined with CAD software. At its core\, much of the work studies the manipulation of simple geometry. Dunn looks at the form from different forced perspectives – exploding\, augmenting\, slicing\, repeating\, and lighting. This body of work is a study of perception\, sympathy\, hierarchy\, and reality. The “We Are Virus” series is an adaptation from an initial design where it continued to evolve and adapt through manipulation of parts and scale.\n\nPeter Dunn received his BFA from Wayne State University and MFA from University of Michigan. He currently serves on faculty at College for Creative Studies UID:116532-21837291@events.umich.edu URL:https://events.umich.edu/event/116532 CLASS:PUBLIC STATUS:CONFIRMED CATEGORIES:Alumni,Art,Culture,Detroit,Exhibition,Humanities,Visual Arts LOCATION:North Campus Research Complex Building 18 - Rotunda Gallery CONTACT: END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20240115T111145 DTSTART;TZID=America/Detroit:20240129T090000 DTEND;TZID=America/Detroit:20240129T170000 SUMMARY:Exhibition:Stamps School of Art and Design Staff Exhibition DESCRIPTION:January 26-April 12\, 9 am - 5 pm or by appointment\ncontact: serrag@med.umich.edu UID:116536-21837450@events.umich.edu URL:https://events.umich.edu/event/116536 CLASS:PUBLIC STATUS:CONFIRMED CATEGORIES:Alumni,Art,Culture,Exhibition,Visual Arts LOCATION:North Campus Research Complex Building 18 - Connections Gallery located on concourse level CONTACT: END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20240209T105543 DTSTART;TZID=America/Detroit:20240129T090000 DTEND;TZID=America/Detroit:20240129T170000 SUMMARY:Exhibition:Take Your Time DESCRIPTION:Artist Enrico Riley is best known for paintings that investigate violence and hope in cultural traditions in African American culture. His new work—created for his exhibition at the Institute for the Humanities Gallery—is personal and abstract. Started as an attempt to paint for himself\, away from the center of things and off at the edges\, they are from the spaces of private thought that slip into existence and just as easily slip away. They come from an internal conversation and contact with the world. \"When I am with them\,\" Riley explains\, \"I feel a tension between the spaces in the works being present but unnamed. The paintings allow me to observe myself looking. I am acutely aware of time. Maybe they are an invitation to speculate.\" UID:116414-21836773@events.umich.edu URL:https://events.umich.edu/event/116414 CLASS:PUBLIC STATUS:CONFIRMED CATEGORIES:Art,Black History Month,Exhibition,Humanities,Visual Arts LOCATION:202 S.

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.

Indigenous birth givers also often hold citizenship in sovereign Nations with whom the US has agreements of fiduciary responsibility. The Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act (ACA) is a complex set of policies that have demonstrated positive impact on perinatal health. Unfortunately\, conversations to repeal the ACA are ongoing and often do not include the specific needs or contexts of American Indian and Alaska Native (AIAN) peoples. Because the ACA included several AIAN-specific provisions\, there is opportunity for differential impact and ultimately\, the potential to reduce health inequities between AIAN and white birth givers. In partnership with an advisory board of Indigenous health services and policy experts\, this project combines qualitative and quantitative research analyzing national datasets and interviews with expert consultants to provide understanding of how to make federal health policy work equitably for Indigenous birth givers in the US.

Some animals fail at apparently simple tasks\, while others have a remarkable capacity to collect\, retain\, and use information from the environment to guide their behavior. Although paper wasps brains are smaller than a grain of rice\, Tibbetts will show that wasps can perform seemingly complex behaviors like individual face recognition\, transitive inference\, social eavesdropping\, and concept learning. She will also describe experiments that take advantage of natural variation in behavior within and among wasp species to test how social interactions shape cognitive abilities.

Against appearances\, the Themersons saw themselves as operating at the intersection of both established and developing artistic traditions\, just as twentieth-century Europe represented the collision of modernity with traditional ways of life. Whereas the filmmakers knew precisely what their film aimed to convey\, however\, they regarded the new European order as a vast experiment whose outcome was uncertain—and potentially disastrous.\n \n Benjamin Paloff is the author of *Lost in the Shadow of the Word (Space\, Time\, and Freedom in Interwar Eastern Europe)* (Northwestern University Press\, 2016)\, which was named 2018 Best Book in Literary Studies by the American Association of Teachers of Slavic and East European Languages\, and of two poetry collections\, *And His Orchestra* (2015) and *The Politics* (2011)\, both published by Carnegie Mellon University Press. He has translated about a dozen books and many shorter literary and theoretical texts from Polish\, Czech\, Russian\, and Yiddish\, notably works by Dorota Masłowska\, Marek Bieńczyk\, Richard Weiner\, and Yuri Lotman\, and he has received grants and fellowships from the Michigan Society of Fellows (2007-2010)\, Poland’s Book Institute (2010)\, the Stanford Humanities Center (2013)\, and the National Endowment for the Arts (2009\, 2016). His research focuses on philosophical dilemmas\, particularly in metaphysics and the ethics of representation\, in modern Central and Eastern European literature\, as well as on translation theory and practice.\n \nIf there is anything we can do to make this event accessible to you\, please contact us.

These collections challenge the notion that the Arabic language itself forbids or erases queer sexuality\; in the talk\, Shomali argues that these collections manipulate Arabic and English to offer new ways of seeing and thinking queer life. She offers close readings of the naming practices writers use and considers a contemporary vocabulary for queer Arab subjects\, one that evades\, challenges\, and upturns restrictive discourses. The collections also demonstrate that Arabs can look to queer Arab communities for strident and intersectional critiques of Arab heteropatriarchy\, imperialism and occupation\, and heteronormativity. \n\nRegister for hybrid here: https://umich.zoom.us/meeting/register/tJMlfuiqqD4jG9YnhiGfpjOhlEOP0PwqOmmW UID:117278-21839095@events.umich.edu URL:https://events.umich.edu/event/117278 CLASS:PUBLIC STATUS:CONFIRMED CATEGORIES:Amas,American Culture,Arab,arab american studies,Arab And Muslim American Studies,Arabic,Department Of American Culture,Discussion,Diversity,Free,In Person,LGBT LOCATION:Haven Hall - 3512 CONTACT: END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20240213T123202 DTSTART;TZID=America/Detroit:20240129T160000 DTEND;TZID=America/Detroit:20240129T163000 SUMMARY:Careers / Jobs:Navigating Job Search Part 2 DESCRIPTION:Every month from now until April\, Cherokee County School District will be hosting virtual TEAMS sessions for future educators from 4:00-4:30 PM EST covering multiple education-related topics.

The spatial circle and/or the temporal cycle provide a guiding model by which he creates a form of bridging between mundane\, terrestrial experience on the one hand\, and\, on the other\, the uplift towards the sublimity of cosmic consciousness. His argument focuses on the tension between these ‘higher’ and ‘lower’ viewpoints\, and on the role that circularity plays in coordinating them within a coherent vision of cosmic operation. \n\nGareth Williams has taught at Columbia University since 1992. He received a Ph.D. in 1990 from Cambridge University for a dissertation on Ovid’s exilic writings that subsequently resulted in two books\, the first Banished Voices: Readings in Ovid’s Exile Poetry (Cambridge\, 1994) and the second The Curse of Exile: A Study of Ovid’s Ibis\, Proceedings of the Cambridge Philological Society Supplementary Volume 19 (Cambridge\, 1996).\n\nTwo distinct research phases followed\, the first of which focused on the Latin ethical writings of Lucius Annaeus Seneca. Two monographs resulted\, the first an edition with commentary of L. Annaeus Seneca: Selected Moral Dialogues. De Otio\, De Brevitate Vitae (Cambridge\, 2003)\; the second\, The Cosmic Viewpoint: A Study of Seneca’s Natural Questions (Oxford\, 2012)\, was awarded the Goodwin Award of Merit by the Society for Classical Studies in 2014. Most recently\, among various other projects and edited volumes around Roman philosophy\, his research has focused on the socio-literary culture of Renaissance Venice\, an interest that resulted in the publication of Pietro Bembo on Etna: The Ascent of a Venetian Humanist (Oxford\, 2017).\n\nA general book on Ovid has recently been published: On Ovid’s Metamorphoses\, New York\, 2023\, and a two-volume edition and annotated translation of selected writings of the fifteenth-century Venetian humanist Ermolao Barbaro is currently in press with Bloomsbury (Ermolao Barbaro\, On Celibacy and On the Duty of the Ambassador\, London\, 2023).

Her lecture addresses the fear of taking risks and detours from one's path to seeking self discovery and purpose. Free and open to the public.\n\nGUEST BIO \n\nAVA ORDMAN (BM & MM ’75\, trombone) served for 24 years as principal trombone with the Grand Rapids Symphony – a job she attained at age 19. At age 41\, Ordman returned to school to pursue a master’s degree in counseling psychology from Western Michigan University. In 1997\, she began her work as a psychologist while subbing with the Detroit Symphony and Detroit Opera orchestras and teaching low brass at Oakland University. In 2002\, Ordman was appointed professor of trombone at Michigan State University. She is principal trombone of the Lansing Symphony Orchestra and the Cabrillo Festival of Contemporary Music Orchestra\, and she performs with the Monarch Brass\, the flagship brass ensemble of the International Women’s Brass Conference.\n\nOrdman played her solo debut at Carnegie Hall in 1990 with the American Symphony and has been a featured artist at numerous festivals and conferences. She performed the world premieres of Steven Smith’s Trombone Concerto with the Eugene Symphony and Libby Larsen’s *Mary Cassatt* with the Grand Rapids Symphony\; both works were written for Ordman. Ordman’s most recent venture was leading a consortium to commission a new trombone concerto by David Biedenbender\; *Their Eyes Are Fireflies* received its world premiere in 2018 with the MSU Wind Symphony. Ordman released a solo CD in 2017\, *It’s About Time: Music for Trombone by Women Composers*.

Modernist Glass from the Polish Past DESCRIPTION:The glass in this rare collection represents the work of renowned Polish glass artists and designers created between 1960 and 1980. Known as Polskie szkło artystyczne (Polish art glass)\, the works were produced in glass factories in southern Poland and are a feature of many homes throughout Central Europe. The glass masters were trained in schools of art and design and many achieved international fame during their lifetimes. \n\nThe collectors\, Endi Poskovic and his wife Julie Anne Visco\, began acquiring the glass in 2015-16 while Endi was a Fulbright Scholar and Visiting Professor at the Jan Matejko Academy of Fine Arts in Kraków. Scouring flea markets\, antique shops\, and websites\, they continue to acquire pieces and build the collection to this day. We are grateful to them for making this remarkable exhibit possible at CCPS and WCEE.\n\nOrganized by the Copernicus Center for Polish Studies\, this exhibition is co-sponsored by the Penny W. Stamps School of Art & Design and Weiser Center for Europe and Eurasia.\n\nLearn more about the exhibition and the artists at https://myumi.ch/8eVrM\n\nThe exhibit opens on September 15\, 2023 in 1010 Weiser Hall\, 500 Church Street\, Ann Arbor.

Pinto (School of Social Work) invites audiences to take part in an exhibition that examines his embodied gender states based on his intersecting childhood traumas and life experiences. In \"My Gender States\,\" Pinto shares his deep and abiding grief related to the childhood death of his sister and the subsequent gender embodiments that ensued stemming from the belief that he was his deceased sister. \n\nUsing autoethnography\, Pinto created a one-person play (\"Marília\,\" 2015) and site-specific installation performance (\"The Realm of the Dead\,\" 2022). These works explore the intersecting and shaping layers of childhood traumas\, gender states\, and his life experience—a story of the struggles\, fears\, and accomplishments he experienced as an immigrant to the United States. In \"Realm\,\" audiences circulated around 25 assemblage sculptures created from vintage suitcases and trunks that evoked the cemetery where Pinto’s sister was buried and the literal and figurative baggage that he\, a queer immigrant\, carried with him. \"My Gender States\" is a selection of materials\, images\, and texts from \"Marília\" and \"Realm\" curated to more closely examine the themes of gender and sexuality in these works. Collected are portrayals of Pinto’s gender states\, gender confusion\, gender embodiments\, gender doubt\, and reactions to gender stigma. \n\nRogério M. Pinto (Brazilian\, American\, b. 1965\, Belo Horizonte\, Brazil) is a University Diversity Social Transformation Professor\; Berit Ingersoll-Dayton Collegiate Professor of Social Work\; and Professor of Theatre and Drama\, School of Music\, Theatre & Dance\, at the University of Michigan. Pinto uses art-based methods to conduct community-engaged research in the United States and Brazil.\n\nThe photographs used in \"My Gender States\" are by Emerson Granillo (American\, b. 1987)\; David Newton (American\, b. 1993)\; and Nicholas Williams (American\, b. 1994). The \"Realm\" assemblages featured in \"My Gender States\" were conceived by Pinto and designed by him\, in collaboration with Sarah Tanner. \n\n\"My Gender States\" is on display in the Lane Hall Exhibit Space (first floor\, 204 S State St) from January 23\, to August 13\, 2024. The exhibit is free and open to the public\, M-F\, 9am-4pm.\n\nHosted by the Institute for Research on Women and Gender and the Women’s and Gender Studies Department.

Unlike previous U-M Library exhibits that focused on the artist at work\, this display shows him in informal and familial environments\, revealing a depth and complexity of character that are often overshadowed by his fame and professional achievements. The photographs and documents displayed showcase a variety of emotional tones — warmth\, humor\, tenderness\, and passion. Candid and relaxed more than posed\, they are similar to most people's pictures in old family albums.\n\nCulled from the Orson Welles-Beatrice Welles materials that are part of the Mavericks & Makers collection within the U-M Library’s Special Collections Research Center\, each photo or letter tells a story of a connection Welles held dearly. The materials included are from two periods: the late 1920s and early 1930s\, when Welles was a teenager\, and the mid-1950s to early 1960s\, during the early years of his marriage to his third wife\, Paola Mori. \n\nIt should be noted that Welles’s personal life was messy at best. Other collections housed at U-M that include personal materials related to Welles document his first and second marriages\, including the Welles-Feder Collection and the Wilson-Welles Collection. The items on display here were saved by his third and final child\, Beatrice Welles\, and reflect her childhood memories of her parents.\n\nThe exhibit is available during Hatcher Gallery Exhibit Room hours (https://umlib.us/hatchergalleryexhibits).

Whether designing furniture or developing the ideas for sculpture\, the process has always been the same. Ideas begin as\nscribbled images that are then stretched and refined with CAD software. At its core\, much of the work studies the manipulation of simple geometry. Dunn looks at the form from different forced perspectives – exploding\, augmenting\, slicing\, repeating\, and lighting. This body of work is a study of perception\, sympathy\, hierarchy\, and reality. The “We Are Virus” series is an adaptation from an initial design where it continued to evolve and adapt through manipulation of parts and scale.\n\nPeter Dunn received his BFA from Wayne State University and MFA from University of Michigan.

They come from an internal conversation and contact with the world. \"When I am with them\,\" Riley explains\, \"I feel a tension between the spaces in the works being present but unnamed.

Gather to feel full\, to be moved and inspired by all the possible imaginations of what is yet to come.\n \nCurated by Félix Zamora Gómez Irving Stenn\, Jr. Fellow in Public Humanities & Museum Pedagogy\n\nLead support for this exhibition is provided by Lizzie and Jonathan Tisch\, the Richard and Rosann Noel Endowment\, and the University of Michigan Office of the Provost.\n  UID:107870-21817716@events.umich.edu URL:https://events.umich.edu/event/107870 CLASS:PUBLIC STATUS:CONFIRMED CATEGORIES:Art,Exhibition,Free,Humanities,Museum,Staff,UMMA LOCATION:Museum of Art - Lizzie and Jonathan Tisch Apse CONTACT: END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20240130T121548 DTSTART;TZID=America/Detroit:20240130T110000 DTEND;TZID=America/Detroit:20240130T170000 SUMMARY:Exhibition:Andrea Carlson Future Cache DESCRIPTION:In Andrea Carlson Future Cache\, a 40-foot-tall memorial wall towers over visitors\, commemorating the Cheboiganing (Burt Lake) Band of Ottawa and Chippewa Indians who were violently burned from their land in Northern Michigan on October 15\, 1900. Written across the walls above and around the memorial\, a statement proclaims Anishinaabe rights to the land we stand on: “You are on Anishinaabe Land.”  \n \nPresented alongside are paintings of imagined decolonized landscapes and a symbolic cache of provisions. Future Cache implicitly asks those who have benefited from the legacies of colonization to consider where they stand and where to go from here and seeks to foster a sense of belonging for displaced Indigenous peoples fighting for restitution.\n\nSpecial thanks to the Cheboiganing (Burt Lake) Band of Ottawa and Chippewa Indians\, Margaret Noodin\, and Richard A. Wiles\, for their consultation on the State Historical Marker text\; to Margaret Noodin and Michael Zimmerman\, Jr. for translating the gallery texts into Anishinaabemowin\; to James Horton and Fritz Swanson for generously producing the letterpress broadsides\; to colleagues at the U-M Biological Station\, U-M Museum of Anthropological Archaeology\, U-M Clements Library\, and U-M Clark Map Library.

How have their perspectives shaped the enduring stories of our history and visions of the past?\n \nYou’re Welcome is a three-part installation and dynamic intervention that exposes the histories and narratives of the land occupied by the University of Michigan and UMMA’s neoclassical building\, Alumni Memorial Hall. A large-scale commission from artist Cannupa Hanska Luger on the exterior of UMMA’s building asks the campus and community to reconsider the memories molded into the Museum’s stone — the perspectives that shaped those traditions and the stories that remain unseen in our facade. This artistic interrogation dissects colonialist norms of monument-making\, explores the roles of buildings in upholding selected cultural systems\, and develops new forms of memorials that center Indigenous perspectives and collaboration to tell fuller stories and histories. \n \nLuger communicates stories of 21st-century Indigeneity\, sovereignty\, and anti-colonialism while offering critical cultural analysis through deep engagements with materials\, environments\, and communities. In addition to the exterior commission\, a gallery exhibition places Luger’s works of art in conversation with objects in UMMA’s collection\, allowing for discussion and thinking on long histories of collecting practices\, environmental degradation\, and the afterlife of colonialism. And\, a monument classroom from nonprofit public art and history studio Monument Lab invites the community to come together and examine how historic structures on the University of Michigan’s campus uphold social and cultural systems and narratives.  \n\nLead support for this project is provided by Teiger Foundation\, the U-M Office of the Provost\, the U-M Office of the President\, Erica Gervais Pappendick and Ted Pappendick\, the U-M Marsal Family School of Education\, the U-M Institute for the Humanities\, Michigan Humanities\, and the U-M Arts Initiative.

Collected for each course are objects that address the nature of materiality\, time\, and human interaction in relation to our environments\, our wars\, our relationships\, and our eccentricities. \n \nWorking in collaboration with University faculty\, the works in this exhibition were selected for their capacity to provoke engagement with the guiding questions and themes of their specific courses\, while also offering students inspiration for research and art projects in their areas of study. The exhibition demonstrates some of the diverse and creative ways art plays a central role in learning across the disciplines. It also asks us to consider what we can learn from art objects across an infinite variety of specialties and subject matter.\n \nAs classes begin in Fall of 2021\, you’ll be able to use these pages to explore the collections designed for each course\, dive into the works themselves\, and hear from the professors and students about how they are engaging with art and objects in new ways.

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  UID:84303-21621195@events.umich.edu URL:https://events.umich.edu/event/84303 CLASS:PUBLIC STATUS:CONFIRMED CATEGORIES:Art,European,Exhibition,History,Museum,UMMA LOCATION:Museum of Art - European and American Decorative Art CONTACT: END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20240104T103007 DTSTART;TZID=America/Detroit:20240130T113000 DTEND;TZID=America/Detroit:20240130T124500 SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Access to “Inaccessible” Arynes and Redox Chemistry Using Transition Metals DESCRIPTION:Research in the Roberts group involves looking at unsolved problems in organic synthesis through the perspective of organometallic/inorganic chemistry. One main area of interest for the group is the synthesis of heterocycles through aryne intermediates. Despite their useful reactivity\, a number of challenges still remain in the use of arynes including problems with regioselectivity and the synthesis of N-heterocyclic arynes. Using fundamental principles of Ni chemistry\, our group is the first to be able to access previously “inaccessible” 5-membered heterocyclic arynes for the first time since they were hypothesized to exist 120 years ago. We are also the first group to demonstrate catalyst controlled regioselectivity in arynes\, where all previous examples operated under substrate control. Another challenge in organic synthesis lies in alkyl–alkyl cross-coupling. This is due to challenges with oxidative addition and off cycle pathways such as beta-hydride elimination. Our group has pioneered the use of Group 3 metal catalysts supported by redox-active ligands to overcome some of these challenges. Using 10 mol% of a Sc\, Y\, or Lu tris(amido) catalyst\, coupling partners that both have beta-hydrogens can be successfully cross-coupled for the first time using early transition metals. These improvements related to organic synthesis can only be accessed using inorganic/organometallic chemistry.

This talk will be recorded for later viewing.\n\nAbstract: Complex adaptive systems science provides ways to examine relationships among individuals in the archaeological past. Through these methods we directly observe the impacts of individuals’ decisions (in the case of agent-based modeling) or their relationships to other individuals (in the case of network analysis) and then examine the effects of these behaviors on larger societal structures. Approaches from complex adaptive systems thus help advance archaeological research to study not just the tangible (artifacts) but the intangible and invisible (relationships).\n\nIn this talk I highlight how tools from complex adaptive systems science have helped solve debates on when and how the peopling of Australia happened\, and how people have been fundamental components in ecosystems for generations. This work has applicability to other systems worldwide\, both in the past and into the future. Archaeology helps us understand vexing problems today by illustrating the trajectories of past societies\, allowing us to see the long-term consequences of human decisions.

Insights from Vertebrate Comparative Demography DESCRIPTION:This event is part of our ongoing Tuesday Lunch Seminar Series.\n\nPreview: “Bridging micro and macroevolution” is a topic frequently discussed in the comparative literature that has multiple meanings to different investigators. In this talk\, I will present results from my dissertation research\, where we explore whether demographic properties with ecological significance (sexual selection intensity and metapopulation-level persistence) represent a conceptual bridge connecting the temporal dynamics of populations and clades. Our findings suggest demographic properties have nontrivial variation at intraspecific\, biogeographic\, and phylogenetic levels\, and raise questions about the extent to which population-level processes observed at “the present day\" provide explanations for large-scale patterns of biodiversity.

I have been leading a distant quasar survey\, which yielded the largest sample of luminous quasars at z~6.5-7.6. Pre-JWST\, studies using this sample have placed stringent constraints on the intergalactic medium (IGM) evolution and early SMBH growth. The launch of JWST opens up a new era. I will introduce my recent effort to conduct high-resolution observations of a sample of ~30 luminous reionization-era quasars using JWST and ALMA\, in synergy with observations in other wavelengths. This dataset allows us to delve into a comprehensive study of the interactions between early SMBHs and their host galaxies at multiple scales and phases\, and enables new methods to constrain the reionization physics. I will present early results\, covering quasar physics\, AGN feedback\, host galaxy stellar emission and gas kinematics\, and IGM evolution. These new discoveries mark the beginning of a new era towards understanding the early Universe. With the upcoming next-generation facilities (e.g.\, Rubin\, Euclid\, Roman\, and E-ELT)\, our understanding of these key questions will be revolutionized in the next decade.

Despite the historical contexts of these opinions\, they remain salient to the current legal debate in the United States. The range of opinions includes strict limitations on abortion\, circumstantial legality\, and general permissibility. Scholars in both traditions debated the issue over extended periods of time (millennia in both instances)\, creating sophisticated bodies of jurisprudence on abortion. \n\nAlthough scholars disagreed over the permissibility of abortion\, they recognized the legitimacy of differing opinions. Comparatively\, the American political and legal debates on abortion have little tolerance for diversity of opinion and have become increasingly polarized. In this presentation\, Professor Benhalim will provide examples of sophisticated abortion jurisprudence from both traditions that recognize and accommodate a wide range of answers to the legal and ethical questions abortion presents. \n\n\nAbout Rabea Benhalim:\n\nRabea Benhalim is an Associate Professor at the University of Colorado Law School. She specializes in comparative Jewish and Islamic law with a focus on (1) The development of Islamic and Jewish law in the modern era and (2) the application of Islamic law in commercial contexts. Within these areas\, her current work investigates how secular environments affect interpretations and development of religious law\, especially for minority religions. Her recent publications include Islamic Law\, Sex\, & Marriage Contracts\, 108 MINN. L. REV. (2023) (forthcoming) and Oppression in Islamic\, Jewish and American Private Law\, 94 COLO. L. REV. 1 (2023). She teaches a variety of law courses including Contracts\, Secured Transactions\, Jewish Law\, and Islamic Law.\n \nProfessor Benhalim's prior work experience as a lawyer and policy expert includes positions at the Brookings Institution\, Mayer Brown LLP\, Maersk Oil\, and the Carter Center. She was the 2017-2019 William H. Hastie Fellow at the University of Wisconsin Law School. She holds a J.D. from the University of Texas\, an L.L.M. from the University of Wisconsin Law School\, a Master of Islamic Studies from the University of Texas\, a Master of Public Policy Degree from the University of Michigan\, and a B.A. from the University of Texas at Dallas.

However\, this sophisticated system is optimized in nature for biological objectives (competitive fitness) that are often at odds with human concerns such as energy-storage efficiency. While some progress has been made in reconfiguring native photosystems for biofuel production\, advances are limited by gaps in our understanding of the \"structure-spectrum-function\" relationship\, i.e.\, of the mechanisms by which protein structures tune pigment optical properties and\, in turn\, how these optical properties translate into biological function. In this talk\, I will describe recent efforts in my group to build a quantitative approach to structure-based tuning using site-directed mutagenesis\, optical spectroscopy\, and molecular and quantum dynamics simulations. Electrostatic effects are found to provide a relatively simple and predictable control knob for tuning electronic transitions\, while steric ring-deformation (although likely to be important) is more difficult to predict and control. Single point mutations are found to produce surprisingly large changes in vibrational sidebands in electronic spectra\, suggesting interplay between excitonic and vibrational coupling. I will close with preliminary results on tuning the lowest-energy fluorescent state of Photosystem II in cyanobacterial cells\, opening the door both to characterizing the functional relevance of these states in native systems and to tuning their properties for new applications.

A natural approach is to consider a uniformly sampled planar map\, which is a model for a discrete surface studied in many branches of both math and physics. When the size of the surface goes to infinity it converges to the continuum random surface known as a Liouville quantum gravity surface\, which was originally introduced in the physics literature. We will give an introduction to these objects and present a powerful technique to study them known as conformal welding\, where the random fractal curves known as Schramm-Loewner evolutions appear.

Structured non-convex learning problems\, common in statistical machine learning\, often possess critical points with favorable statistical properties. While algorithmic convergence and statistical estimation rates are well-understood in such scenarios\, quantifying uncertainty associated with the underlying training algorithm remains understudied in the non-convex setting. To address this gap\, we establish an asymptotic normality result for the Stochastic Gradient Descent algorithm with a constant step size. Specifically\, we demonstrate that the average of SGD iterates is asymptotically normally distributed around the expected value of their unique invariant distribution. We also characterize the bias between this expected value and the critical points of the objective function under various local regularity conditions. \n\n\n\nRecent studies have provided both empirical and theoretical evidence illustrating the emergence of heavy tails in stochastic optimization problems. Our focus shifts to stochastic convex optimization under infinite noise variance. When the stochastic gradient is unbiased and has a uniformly bounded (1 +k)-th moment for some k ∈ (0\, 1]\, we quantify the convergence rate of the Stochastic Mirror Descent algorithm with a particular class of uniformly convex mirror maps. Notably\, this algorithm does not require any explicit gradient clipping or normalization\, which have been extensively used in recent empirical and theoretical works. Our results are complemented by information-theoretic lower bounds\, indicating that no other algorithm using only stochastic first-order oracles can achieve improved rates. These findings contribute to a nuanced understanding of stochastic optimization\, bridging statistical and computational perspectives.

Modernist Glass from the Polish Past DESCRIPTION:The glass in this rare collection represents the work of renowned Polish glass artists and designers created between 1960 and 1980. Known as Polskie szkło artystyczne (Polish art glass)\, the works were produced in glass factories in southern Poland and are a feature of many homes throughout Central Europe. The glass masters were trained in schools of art and design and many achieved international fame during their lifetimes. \n\nThe collectors\, Endi Poskovic and his wife Julie Anne Visco\, began acquiring the glass in 2015-16 while Endi was a Fulbright Scholar and Visiting Professor at the Jan Matejko Academy of Fine Arts in Kraków. Scouring flea markets\, antique shops\, and websites\, they continue to acquire pieces and build the collection to this day.

Pinto (School of Social Work) invites audiences to take part in an exhibition that examines his embodied gender states based on his intersecting childhood traumas and life experiences. In \"My Gender States\,\" Pinto shares his deep and abiding grief related to the childhood death of his sister and the subsequent gender embodiments that ensued stemming from the belief that he was his deceased sister. \n\nUsing autoethnography\, Pinto created a one-person play (\"Marília\,\" 2015) and site-specific installation performance (\"The Realm of the Dead\,\" 2022). These works explore the intersecting and shaping layers of childhood traumas\, gender states\, and his life experience—a story of the struggles\, fears\, and accomplishments he experienced as an immigrant to the United States. In \"Realm\,\" audiences circulated around 25 assemblage sculptures created from vintage suitcases and trunks that evoked the cemetery where Pinto’s sister was buried and the literal and figurative baggage that he\, a queer immigrant\, carried with him. \"My Gender States\" is a selection of materials\, images\, and texts from \"Marília\" and \"Realm\" curated to more closely examine the themes of gender and sexuality in these works. Collected are portrayals of Pinto’s gender states\, gender confusion\, gender embodiments\, gender doubt\, and reactions to gender stigma. \n\nRogério M. Pinto (Brazilian\, American\, b. 1965\, Belo Horizonte\, Brazil) is a University Diversity Social Transformation Professor\; Berit Ingersoll-Dayton Collegiate Professor of Social Work\; and Professor of Theatre and Drama\, School of Music\, Theatre & Dance\, at the University of Michigan. Pinto uses art-based methods to conduct community-engaged research in the United States and Brazil.\n\nThe photographs used in \"My Gender States\" are by Emerson Granillo (American\, b. 1987)\; David Newton (American\, b. 1993)\; and Nicholas Williams (American\, b. 1994). The \"Realm\" assemblages featured in \"My Gender States\" were conceived by Pinto and designed by him\, in collaboration with Sarah Tanner. \n\n\"My Gender States\" is on display in the Lane Hall Exhibit Space (first floor\, 204 S State St) from January 23\, to August 13\, 2024. The exhibit is free and open to the public\, M-F\, 9am-4pm.\n\nHosted by the Institute for Research on Women and Gender and the Women’s and Gender Studies Department.

Unlike previous U-M Library exhibits that focused on the artist at work\, this display shows him in informal and familial environments\, revealing a depth and complexity of character that are often overshadowed by his fame and professional achievements. The photographs and documents displayed showcase a variety of emotional tones — warmth\, humor\, tenderness\, and passion. Candid and relaxed more than posed\, they are similar to most people's pictures in old family albums.\n\nCulled from the Orson Welles-Beatrice Welles materials that are part of the Mavericks & Makers collection within the U-M Library’s Special Collections Research Center\, each photo or letter tells a story of a connection Welles held dearly. The materials included are from two periods: the late 1920s and early 1930s\, when Welles was a teenager\, and the mid-1950s to early 1960s\, during the early years of his marriage to his third wife\, Paola Mori. \n\nIt should be noted that Welles’s personal life was messy at best. Other collections housed at U-M that include personal materials related to Welles document his first and second marriages\, including the Welles-Feder Collection and the Wilson-Welles Collection. The items on display here were saved by his third and final child\, Beatrice Welles\, and reflect her childhood memories of her parents.\n\nThe exhibit is available during Hatcher Gallery Exhibit Room hours (https://umlib.us/hatchergalleryexhibits).

Whether designing furniture or developing the ideas for sculpture\, the process has always been the same. Ideas begin as\nscribbled images that are then stretched and refined with CAD software. At its core\, much of the work studies the manipulation of simple geometry. Dunn looks at the form from different forced perspectives – exploding\, augmenting\, slicing\, repeating\, and lighting. This body of work is a study of perception\, sympathy\, hierarchy\, and reality. The “We Are Virus” series is an adaptation from an initial design where it continued to evolve and adapt through manipulation of parts and scale.\n\nPeter Dunn received his BFA from Wayne State University and MFA from University of Michigan.

His new work—created for his exhibition at the Institute for the Humanities Gallery—is personal and abstract. Started as an attempt to paint for himself\, away from the center of things and off at the edges\, they are from the spaces of private thought that slip into existence and just as easily slip away. They come from an internal conversation and contact with the world. \"When I am with them\,\" Riley explains\, \"I feel a tension between the spaces in the works being present but unnamed.

Written across the walls above and around the memorial\, a statement proclaims Anishinaabe rights to the land we stand on: “You are on Anishinaabe Land.”  \n \nPresented alongside are paintings of imagined decolonized landscapes and a symbolic cache of provisions. Future Cache implicitly asks those who have benefited from the legacies of colonization to consider where they stand and where to go from here and seeks to foster a sense of belonging for displaced Indigenous peoples fighting for restitution.\n\nSpecial thanks to the Cheboiganing (Burt Lake) Band of Ottawa and Chippewa Indians\, Margaret Noodin\, and Richard A.

How have their perspectives shaped the enduring stories of our history and visions of the past?\n \nYou’re Welcome is a three-part installation and dynamic intervention that exposes the histories and narratives of the land occupied by the University of Michigan and UMMA’s neoclassical building\, Alumni Memorial Hall. A large-scale commission from artist Cannupa Hanska Luger on the exterior of UMMA’s building asks the campus and community to reconsider the memories molded into the Museum’s stone — the perspectives that shaped those traditions and the stories that remain unseen in our facade. This artistic interrogation dissects colonialist norms of monument-making\, explores the roles of buildings in upholding selected cultural systems\, and develops new forms of memorials that center Indigenous perspectives and collaboration to tell fuller stories and histories. \n \nLuger communicates stories of 21st-century Indigeneity\, sovereignty\, and anti-colonialism while offering critical cultural analysis through deep engagements with materials\, environments\, and communities. In addition to the exterior commission\, a gallery exhibition places Luger’s works of art in conversation with objects in UMMA’s collection\, allowing for discussion and thinking on long histories of collecting practices\, environmental degradation\, and the afterlife of colonialism. And\, a monument classroom from nonprofit public art and history studio Monument Lab invites the community to come together and examine how historic structures on the University of Michigan’s campus uphold social and cultural systems and narratives.  \n\nLead support for this project is provided by Teiger Foundation\, the U-M Office of the Provost\, the U-M Office of the President\, Erica Gervais Pappendick and Ted Pappendick\, the U-M Marsal Family School of Education\, the U-M Institute for the Humanities\, Michigan Humanities\, and the U-M Arts Initiative.

The exhibition demonstrates some of the diverse and creative ways art plays a central role in learning across the disciplines. It also asks us to consider what we can learn from art objects across an infinite variety of specialties and subject matter.\n \nAs classes begin in Fall of 2021\, you’ll be able to use these pages to explore the collections designed for each course\, dive into the works themselves\, and hear from the professors and students about how they are engaging with art and objects in new ways.

The terminal value ξ and the obstacle processes (Lt)0≤t≤T and (Ut)0≤t≤T are Lp-integrable for a suitable p > 2. First\, we construct the solution for the one barrier case using the localization method\, and also the penalization method after we prove the comparison theorem in our setting. Then\, we move on to the case of two barriers where we use the concept of local solution to construct a global one.

Motivated by questions in additive combinatorics\, Green and Tao proved that polynomials over finite fields with high strength have equidistributed values. This result led to a flurry of various extensions and improvements by many others. I will survey what is known both qualitatively and quantitatively and then introduce an equidistribution result for polynomials with inputs restricted to lie on a variety.\nJoint work with Tamar Ziegler.

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’....

Learning to be Loyal: Political & Patriotic Education in Russia & China DESCRIPTION:How do authoritarian regimes attempt to build loyalty among a globally-minded youth? How do they educate students to be patriotic and supportive citizens\, and do these strategies actually generate popular support for those in power? Drawing on political and patriotic education materials from contemporary Russia and China—two countries of geopolitical importance with long histories of political education training—Karrie Koesel will compare how these countries seek to transmit political knowledge to young people\; how they use schools to socialize students to be patriotic and cultivate popular legitimacy\; and whether these efforts build support for the authoritarian status quo.\n \n Karrie J. Koesel is associate professor of political science at the University of Notre Dame where she specializes in the study of contemporary Russian and Chinese politics\, authoritarianism\, and religion and politics. She is the author of *Religion and Authoritarianism: Cooperation\, Conflict and the Consequences* (Cambridge University Press\, 2014)\, co-editor of *Citizens & the State in Authoritarian Regimes: Comparing China & Russia* (Oxford University Press\, 2021)\, and a fellow in the Public Intellectual Program for the National Committee on US-China Relations. Karrie Koesel is currently working on a book\, *Learning to Be Loyal: Political Education in Authoritarian Regimes*.

Support for Redistribution in the Age of Inequality DESCRIPTION:What explains the public’s muted response to income inequality? To answer this question\, Fair Enough? proposes a new framework for studying attitudes toward redistributive social policies in times of rising inequality. These attitudes\, Cavaille argues\, are shaped by at least two motives. First\, people support policies that increase their own expected income. Second\, they support policies that move the status quo closer to what is prescribed by shared norms of fairness. In most circumstances\, saying the “fair thing” is easier than reasoning according to one's own economic interest. But there are important exceptions: when policies have large and certain pocketbook consequences\, people take the self-interested position instead of the “fair” one. Combined with a new theory of fairness concerns\, this simple framework helps explain puzzling attitudinal trends in post-industrial democracies including a decline in support for redistribution in Great Britain\, the erosion of social solidarity in France\, and a declining correlation between income and support for redistribution in the United States.

This factorization has proven very useful for recursion relations for amplitudes at high multplicities. The recursion can break down\, however\, when the amplitude contains a pole at infinity. In this talk we are going to make modest step towards a prescription of “unitarity at infinity”. We do this by studying on-shell diagrams\, which are on-shell gauge invariant objects that appear as cuts of loop integrands in the context of generalized unitarity and serve as building blocks for amplitudes in recursion relations. In the dual formulation\, they are associated with cells of the positive Grassmannian. We will describe on-shell diagrams in N<4 supersymmetric Yang-Mills (SYM) theory and show that there exists a diagrammatic operation that corresponds to sending one of the momenta to infinity.

The steady state substrate concentration field is governed by Laplace's equation with mixed boundary conditions. We use the collocation method to obtain numerical solutions to the equation in spherical coordinates and we show that the product concentration field can be expressed in terms of the substrate concentration field. The asymmetry of the reaction gives rise to a slip velocity that causes the particle to move spontaneously in the fluid through a process known as self-diffusiophoresis. Using the Lorentz reciprocal theorem\, we obtain the swimming velocity of the particle. The magnitude and direction of propulsion depend on competition between the substrate and product mobilities and diffusivities. We extend the results to Janus particles with arbitrary surface coverage\, maximizing the swimming velocity as a function of the size of the reaction site.
