SUMMARY:Exhibition:Art Exhibition. \"Between Voice and Silence\"
DESCRIPTION:CREES is delighted to support the international art exhibition Between Voice and Silence. Dedicated to the fallen Ukrainian poet Maksym Kryvtsov\, the exhibit’s title is borrowed from one of his poems. Exploring the role of empathy and humanity in the times of crisis\, Ukrainian and American artists Katya Lisova (textiles)\, Matvii Vaisberg (prints)\, and Ira Bondarenko (ceramics) reflect on the power and limits of human agency in the face of overwhelming force. The value of humanity lies in its capacity to transcend adversity by embracing compassion and keeping empathy and human connection alive in the most oppressive darkness. The project examines this concept through the lens of Ukrainian artists and poets and emphasizes the role of ordinary people in building resilience and saving the country.\n\nThe exhibition\, which will be displayed in the University of Michigan’s Duderstadt Center Gallery from September 14-October 5\, 2025\, was made possible by a grant from the Arts Initiative at the University of Michigan. The Ann Arbor Chapter of the Ukrainian National Women's League of America (UNWLA) also provided support for the project. \n   \n   Image: *Fly* by Katya Lisova\n  \nIf there is anything we can do to make this event accessible to you\, please contact us at crees@umich.edu. Please be aware that advance notice is necessary as some accommodations may require more time for the university to arrange.

SUMMARY:Performance:Nigamon/Tunai
DESCRIPTION:In the heart of a forest of sound\, Canadian artist Émilie Monnet and Colombian artist Waira Nina deliver a poetic manifesto inspired by the bonds of friendship and solidarity.\n\nNigamon / Tunai (the words translate to “song” in the Anishinaabemowin and Inga languages) is an immersive performance ritual rooted in the presence of the natural world and co-exists with the audience\, who are in close proximity to the performers on the Power Center stage.\n\nAt the crossroads of friendship and resistance\, the two women invite us to listen deeply and to understand the knowledge and struggles that link their respective cultures: the depletion and plundering of natural resources that are core to their existence.\n\nInterweaving immersive performance and audio documentary with Indigenous knowledge and voices\, this mesmerizing new theatrical work invites audiences into ritualized listening\, and to feel the sound vibrations emitted by the surrounding water\, stones\, copper\, and tree trunks. Linked by the figure of the turtle\, which is central to both of their origin stories\, the two women form an effective alliance advocating for the protection of water\, land\, stars\, and ancestral knowledge.\n\nLooking for free student tickets? All U-M undergraduate students are eligible to receive a FREE ticket to a UMS performance per academic year through the Bert’s Ticket program (a $20 value)!

SUMMARY:Performance:Cris Williamson
DESCRIPTION:A celebration in honor of The Changer and The Changed\n\nCris Williamson returns to the Ark for a celebration and special 50th Anniversary solo presentation of the beloved Changer and the Changed\, the album that became the soundtrack of a movement. \n\n\"The Changer”  as it is often called\, is a seminal album in feminist music history. Released in 1975 on Olivia Records\, an all-women recording company\, the album is considered a cornerstone of women's music. NPR's Music Critic Ann Powers has praised the album as a work that explores themes of loss\, grief\, and renewal\, suggesting it's a portal that allows listeners to travel through time and return refreshed. The album's impact is significant\, with Powers and others highlighting its enduring influence on the folk\, pop\, and feminist music movements. \n \n\"Even though it’s over 50 years old\, The Changer and the Changed seems to still hold water\, and continue to refresh those who find it. I’m honored to claim it\, and thrilled to perform it. What a joy to play these old songs. It feels new every time!” - Cris\n\nCome join Cris in celebration\, and bring your memories.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:2025 Second Year Studio Exhibition
DESCRIPTION:August 18 - October 24\, 2025Exhibition Reception: September 11\, 3-5 p.m.\n\"In their second year\, Stamps students complete a major milestone: Second Year Studio (SYS). It’s a course where\, per the syllabus\, students 'develop the capacity to work independently by identifying\, exploring\, and pursuing a single independent project that involves multiple iterations.' Each student takes their own path\, encountering questions that can shape the direction of their creative practice—how do I manage my time? How much constraint vs. freedom do I thrive on? What subject matter do I care about most deeply? How do my ideas about my future goals intersect with the work I want to make now? At the end of the semester\, students formally report on their experience in a presentation called the Sophomore Review\, and a faculty panel offers individualized feedback. \nUntil now\, the classroom studios and review rooms have been the only place to catch a glimpse of the art and design work resulting from this pivotal course. Last year\, Associate Dean for Academic Programs Rebecca Strzelec proposed something new: an exhibition installed throughout the Art &amp\; Architecture Building during the summer that would celebrate Second Year Studio work and help to welcome the community back in the Fall. This inaugural 2025 Second Year Studio Exhibition showcases our rising third-years and transfer students\, and invites first-years and other newcomers to explore both the building\, and the creative possibilities ahead. The show features 44 students who have volunteered to participate\, yet it honors every Stamps major who reaches the SYS milestone. \nThe pieces on view span a wide array of media and capture a specific moment in each maker’s path—experiments in previously unfamiliar methods\, emergent passions\, creative risks taken\, iterations and reiterations\, and the seeds of so much future work.\"\n- Sally Clegg\, Lecturer and Student Exhibitions Coordinator\nExhibiting Artists and Designers\n\nRobin Beaney\nAdi Behar\nDavid Byun\nZoë Corley\nChloe Dennis\nViktoriya Finyak\nMaria Elena García-Murguía\nElisa Gasser\nOlivia Glynn\nRoe Halbert\nNadav Havilio\nDee Holmes\nRuby Hough\nUrvi Joshi\nEunice Kim\nHannah Kryzhan\nBen Levitsky\nJoyce Liu\nKatelyn Ma\nAlexandria Mainor\nErin Malone\nSummer Mansi\nCheyenne Moore\nElla Moxon\nShafiq Muqit\nAlex Nguyen\nAnna Noh\nLeanna Mokihana Paik\nEva Park\nMichelle Peng\nEliana Pettigrew\nZainab Rahmani\nOlivia Reed\nSky Roberts\nZachary Sebestyen\nOliver Lee St Cyr\nSophie Stillwagon\nVeronica Weinberg\nCaitlin Weingarden\nNala Arielle White\nAriel Williams\nSilas Williams\nKatherine Xu\nJoy Yang\n

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Consequence - Group Art Exhibition - Art as Environmental Activism
DESCRIPTION:This group exhibition is an in-depth exploration of the role of art as a powerful catalyst for environmental activism. At first glance\, these works each possess striking beauty. However\, a closer inspection reveals a profound and often unsettling depth that challenges one’s perceptions. \n\nThe artworks are imbued with many layers of meaning\, inviting us to engage critically with the themes presented and encouraging us to reflect on our often-fraught relationship with the natural world.   Through a variety of mediums and techniques\, these works prompt us to confront uncomfortable truths about climate change\, habitat loss\, and the disappearing biodiversity around us. \n\nCampbell’s captivating “Heatscape” series transforms what is often an intangible concept into the tangible realm by visually translating heat distribution data to depict the impact of urban design on climate.  This series offers a profound exploration of the intriguing phenomenon known as \"urban heat islands”\, a term that describes urban areas that absorb and radiate significantly more heat than their surrounding rural landscapes due to human activities and infrastructure.\n\n“Heatscape” invites us to engage in a deeper reflection about the profound impact that human ingenuity has wielded over the natural world\, serving as a visual reminder of our responsibility to urban design that is considerate to the environment and communities it impacts. This work challenges us to recognize the interplay between our lifestyles and the environment\, urging a dialogue about sustainable practices that could mitigate the effects of these heat islands.\n\nSnider’s work powerfully illustrates the remnants of industrialization\, capturing the unsettling essence of its aftermath. In his art\, we encounter an urban landscape that is strikingly devoid of human presence\, creating an almost haunting atmosphere. This absence of people amplifies the eerie feeling and serves as a warning about the enduring consequences of industrial progress. It prompts viewers to reflect on the environmental impact and the transformations that society has undergone\, urging us to consider what aspects of our world will persist in the wake of such change. Ultimately\, Snider’s poignant depictions challenge us to confront the stark reality of a landscape altered by human activity\, inviting contemplation on both the beauty and the desolation that can coexist in our modern environments.\n\nSandra Osip’s sculptures delve deeply into the juxtaposition of decay and destruction alongside the concepts of life and growth. Through her abstract structures\, she illustrates the profound effects climate change has on our urban landscapes and the planet as a whole. These pieces serve as a poignant reminder of the delicate balance between nature and human impact\, while Osip’s imaginative flowers evoke a sense of nostalgia and loss\, symbolizing the beauty of what has been irretrievably diminished in our world. By celebrating these natural forms\, she not only honors the richness of biodiversity but also raises awareness about the environmental crisis we face.\n\nCassells’ work not only celebrates a profound connection to nature and sustainable practices but also serves to illuminate the significant impact that climate change has on vulnerable communities. Through her art\, she investigates the intricate relationships between different environmental systems\, emphasizing how they are all interconnected. \n\nBy delving into these themes\, Cassells sheds light on the challenges faced by communities that often bear the brunt of climate change despite contributing the least to the problem. Her exploration encourages a deeper understanding of how environmental changes affect social structures and the lives of people in marginalized areas. In doing so\, she advocates for greater awareness and action to address these issues\, ultimately promoting a more sustainable and equitable future for all. \n\nShanna Merola’s photo-collages are informed by the stories of environmental justice struggles past and present.  Shanna Merola and Halima Afi Cassells collaborated on collage and interactive installations for over five years. Researching\, wandering\, photographing\, and creating together while interrogating the interconnectedness of environmental degradation\, and global corporatism\, and community response.\n\nSobel takes a more straightforward approach by helping us begin to grasp the reality of living in a world affected by climate change.  Her work described as “wilderness-based\, science-inspired”\, serves as a bridge\, connecting viewers to experiences that might seem too distant or unfolding too slowly for most people to comprehend firsthand. In doing so\, she not only raises awareness but also encourages dialogue about the pressing challenges our planet faces. Through her work\, Sobel facilitates a deeper understanding of the interconnection between humanity and the environment\, compelling us to reflect on our role in addressing these urgent issues.\n\nThese diverse approaches to creating art serve as powerful connections to the most critical and pressing environmental issues of our time. This engagement serves to deepen our understanding of these challenges from multiple perspectives\, including cultural\, social\, and scientific viewpoints.  \nFurthermore\, these approaches are not only meant to inform but also to inspire. They challenge us to reconsider our relationship with the planet and encourage us to take actionable steps toward sustainability.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Cathy Barry Art Exhibition
DESCRIPTION:Cathy Barry has a profound connection to the natural world\, which has shaped her artistic journey. She focuses on expressing gratitude\, compassion\, and a sense of responsibility towards environmental protection. After years of working with traditional media such as oil\, acrylic\, and watercolor\, her art is transitioning to more sustainable materials. The pigments she uses in her collages are sourced entirely from plants\, all collected and processed by Cathy herself from various locations throughout Michigan. This natural paint has become a vital part of her expressive palette\, driving her to approach her work with a renewed sense of integrity and awareness of our interconnected ecosystem.\n\nIn her collages\, Cathy skillfully combines paper painted with her homemade botanical pigments and intricately punched shapes\, creating a distinctive micro-scale vocabulary. These miniature worlds are thoughtfully assembled within larger contexts\, challenging our perceptions of the universe and our place within it.\n\nRecently\, Cathy has embarked on a new adventure: creating art directly from plant materials. By collecting\, drying\, and weaving leaves\, she has developed an exciting rhythm in her process. Through simple weaving\, twining\, and basketry techniques\, she has deepened her enthusiasm for and connection to the plants surrounding her in her yard and neighborhood. This integration of materials with form and subject in her work evokes a serene wholeness that reflects nature's inherent wisdom. Additionally\, her journey has sparked a curiosity to explore the historical uses and roles of plants throughout history.\n\nCathy Barry is an artist and instructor living and working in Ann Arbor\, Mi. She is a Lecturer in the University of Michigan (UM) Stamps School of Art and Design\, the UM Program in the Environment and the UM Biological Station.

DESCRIPTION:ICE in the Heartland showcases a multifaceted project that gathers and disseminates the stories of communities impacted by immigration worksite raids with the aim of bringing underrepresented narratives to news media\, classroom\, and public discourse. This project comprises qualitative public health research conducted in impacted communities and visual arts generated from the research outcomes. Research teams of graduate and undergraduate students from the University of Michigan\, led by Professor William Lopez\, and the University of Iowa\, led by Professor Nicole Novak\, collaborated with a range of community members and organizers at sites of six large-scale immigration worksite raids that occurred in 2018 in Iowa\, Nebraska\, Ohio\, Tennessee\, and Texas. The researchers visited these sites\, spoke to advocates\, detainees\, their families\, and other community members. In conversation with the seventy-seven interviews\, artists Dalia Harris and Carolina Jones Ortiz generated ten images that comprise ICE in the Heartland. On display with the artworks are community member testimonies\, analysis on the public health detriments to immigration worksite raids and deportation\, insights to the artists’ methods\, and the curricular materials used in public outreach programs. \n\nHosted and sponsored by the Institute for Research on Women and Gender and the Department of Women’s and Gender Studies\, U-M.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:FoRMS Davis Elordi (History)\, \"Dual Converso Prophets and the Improvisation of Faith\,\" and Yueling Li (History of Art)\, \"Writing in Sino-Islamic Arts in Ming and Qing China\"
DESCRIPTION:Please join The Forum for Research in Medieval Studies (FoRMS) on Monday\, October 6th\, in Tisch 1014 for our first workshop! This week will include presentations from Davis Elordi (History) and Yueling Li (History of Art). Lunch will be provided\, so please remember to register through Sessions if you are thinking of coming. The abstracts and titles for their talks are included below. \n\nDavis Elordi (History): Dual Converso Prophets and the Improvisation of Faith\n\nThis paper explores the cultural\, theological\, and class differences between the extant writings of colonial Latin America’s only two “crypto-Jews.” Crypto-Jew is a historiographical label applied to individuals\, baptized in the Catholic Church\, of clandestine Jewish heritage accused of practicing the “Law of Moses” and the faith of their ancestors. This paper seeks to disprove previous scholarly assertions of a collective identity and emphasize these crypto-Jews' differences. Questions of identity and class among this group remain largely unexplored outside Iberia\, in part because reading with the archival grain encourages the scholar to identify groups of mercantile \"Jews\" secretly colluding against the Spanish Empire.\n\nLuis de Carvajal\, el mozo\, and Francisco Maldonado de Silva’s writings provide a contrast to the typical documentation of Ibero-American crypto-Jews. Both freely professed their adherence to the Law of Moses\, and they left behind writings containing their religious beliefs and radical self-reinventions\, inspired by Roman Catholic texts. Carvajal left behind a memoir when he was executed in 1596\; Maldonado de Silva wrote hundreds of letters and journals\, of which we only possess three pieces of writing after his death in 1639. Carvajal\, posturing as a member of Spanish nobility\, and Maldonado de Silva\, an educated surgeon\, reflect the differences within their social standings. They reflect the limits and potentialities of biblical exegesis in the Spanish Empire\, as they both improvised forms of religiosity. \n\nYueling Li (Art History): Writing in Sino-Islamic Arts in Ming and Qing China\n\nMy project explores epigraphic traces of Islam in China from the 16th to 19th century\, paying particular attention to manuscripts\, ceramics\, and portable vessels. I argue that development in script\, format and decoration of Sino-Islamic manuscript played a role in consolidating the formation of a local identity and fostering a sense of belongingment for Muslims in Ming and Qing China\, when the intersection of ethnicity\, religion\, class and language struck a delicate balance. Available colophons also testify to active participation of women in the production and transmission of Islam in 17th century China\, supporting contemporary accounts and records in mosques. In parallel to the stylization of book arts\, Arabic and Persian inscriptions on Chinese porcelain\, embroidery\, bronze and jade transforms imperial and common objects to carry an extra layer of significance\, as vessels for ritual and everyday use\, sources of magic and protection\, markers of Muslim identity\, and expressions of individuals’ faith. In other words\, this project aims to push forward an understanding of the macroscopic transmission of religious and intellectual knowledge\, and the socio-political networks of Ming (1368 - 1644) and Qing (1644 - 1911) China through a microscopic and material lens.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:RCGD Fall Seminar Series on the Science of Social Relationships: R. Chris Fraley
DESCRIPTION:R. Chris Fraley of the University of Illinois\, Urbana-Champaign joins the RCGD Fall Seminar Series on the Science of Social Relationships.\n\nThere are vast individual differences in the ways in which people relate to significant others in their lives. Some people\, for example\, are relatively secure in their relationships: They are comfortable opening up to others and having others depend on them. Other people\, in contrast\, are insecure: They are uncomfortable depending on others and worry that others will not be available when needed. Social and personality psychologists refer to these kinds of individual differences as \"attachment styles.\" In this talk R. Chris Fraley will review research on why some people are more secure than others. This talk convers five conclusions that have emerged from research over the past two decades-- with discussion of some of the challenges and opportunities involved in changing people's attachment styles.\n\nR. Chris Fraley is a Professor at the University of Illinois's Department of Psychology. He received his PhD from the University of California\, Davis in 1999 in Social-Personality Psychology. In 2007 he received the American Psychological Association's Distinguished Scientific Award for Early Career Contribution to Psychology in the area of Individual Differences. In 2025 he received the Carol and Ed Diener Mid-Career Award from the Society for Personality and Social Psychology. He has served as an Associate Editor at the Journal of Personality and Social Psychology and Personality and Social Psychology Bulletin.\n\nChris's research involves the study of attachment processes in close relationships\, personality dynamics and development\, and research methods (with an emphasis on open science and dynamic modeling). The majority of his research is focused on understanding why some people are more secure than others in their close relationships\, the implications of attachment (in)security for psychological well-being and relationship functioning\, and how attachment patterns change over time.\n\nAbout the series:\n\nHumans are social animals and from the earliest days of life\, are dependent on the quality of social relationships with significant others: family\, kin\, friends\, and a growing social network of online acquaintances. But\, how do we conduct research and come to understand the social processes transpiring in these significant social connections with others? What are the consequences for individual development and mental health outcomes of having close intimate relationships in one’s life? There is also a darker side to some relationships in the form of violence\, aggression\, and conflict. How do we study these processes? Social media and artificial intelligence have opened up new ways of thinking about “what is a social relationship?” and how many of these “friends” can one truly have. \n\nThe speakers for this series will focus on different types of social relationships\, spanning family and parent-child relationships\, friendships\, peer networks\, romantic relationships\, attachment relationships\, and the use of online media to maintain social connections. Although several speakers are senior scholars with extensive research backgrounds in the field\, many are junior scholars who are traversing new paths into the science of social relationships. Please join us Mondays to learn more about the exciting field of social relationships!\n\nThese events are held Mondays from 3:30 to 5.\nIn person: ISR Thompson 1430\, unless otherwise specified.\nOrganized by Brenda Volling and Richard Gonzalez.\nAs permissions allow\, seminars are later posted to our YouTube playlist.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:GLNT: A generalization of Elkies’ theorem on infinitely many supersingular primes
DESCRIPTION:In 1987\, Elkies proved that every elliptic curve defined over Q has infinitely many supersingular primes. In this talk\, I will present an extension of this result to certain abelian fourfolds in Mumford’s families and more generally\, to certain families of Kuga-Satake abelian varieties. I will review Elkies’ proof and explain how his strategy of intersecting with CM cycles can be adapted to our setting. I will also discuss some of the techniques in our proof to study the local properties of the CM cycles.

SUMMARY:Meeting:Student Combinatorics: Braid Varieties\, Weaves\, and Splicings
DESCRIPTION:Braid varieties are a large class of flag configuration spaces that include (open) Richardson varieties. In 2022\, Casals et al. showed that the coordinate rings of these varieties carry a cluster structure by using weaves\, a diagrammatic calculus created in connection to symplectic knot theory. In 2025\, motivated by results in link homology\, Gorsky et al. constructed splicing maps identifying certain principal open subsets of a braid variety with a direct product of smaller braid varieties and conjectured these maps behave well with regards to the cluster structure. In this talk\, we explain these results and propose a weave construction that helps study the cluster structure behavior under the splicing map.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:Exploring the Mind | How Do Our Thoughts and Our Feelings Affect Each Other? Theories of Human Emotion
DESCRIPTION:In this talk I will trace the way scientific thinking about the relation between cognition and emotion has changed from Darwin to the present. Some questions that researchers have struggled with are 1) Are emotions adaptive or maladaptive? 2) How do thinking and feeling influence each other? 3) How many emotions are there? 4) Are human emotions universal or culturally variable?\n\nAbout the speaker: Phoebe C. Ellsworth is a professor of Psychology (emerita) at the University of Michigan. She is interested in how emotions are produced  by people’s perceptions of their situation and its relevance to their well-being\, and in how individuals and cultures differ in their emotional experience. She received her PhD in Psychology from Stanford University. She is a member of the American Academy or Arts and Sciences and the National Academy of Science.\n\nNote that this talk is free and open to the public and will take place at the Ann Arbor District Library's Downtown Branch.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:2025 Second Year Studio Exhibition
DESCRIPTION:August 18 - October 24\, 2025Exhibition Reception: September 11\, 3-5 p.m.\n\"In their second year\, Stamps students complete a major milestone: Second Year Studio (SYS). It’s a course where\, per the syllabus\, students 'develop the capacity to work independently by identifying\, exploring\, and pursuing a single independent project that involves multiple iterations.' Each student takes their own path\, encountering questions that can shape the direction of their creative practice—how do I manage my time? How much constraint vs. freedom do I thrive on? What subject matter do I care about most deeply? How do my ideas about my future goals intersect with the work I want to make now? At the end of the semester\, students formally report on their experience in a presentation called the Sophomore Review\, and a faculty panel offers individualized feedback. \nUntil now\, the classroom studios and review rooms have been the only place to catch a glimpse of the art and design work resulting from this pivotal course. Last year\, Associate Dean for Academic Programs Rebecca Strzelec proposed something new: an exhibition installed throughout the Art &amp\; Architecture Building during the summer that would celebrate Second Year Studio work and help to welcome the community back in the Fall. This inaugural 2025 Second Year Studio Exhibition showcases our rising third-years and transfer students\, and invites first-years and other newcomers to explore both the building\, and the creative possibilities ahead. The show features 44 students who have volunteered to participate\, yet it honors every Stamps major who reaches the SYS milestone. \nThe pieces on view span a wide array of media and capture a specific moment in each maker’s path—experiments in previously unfamiliar methods\, emergent passions\, creative risks taken\, iterations and reiterations\, and the seeds of so much future work.\"\n- Sally Clegg\, Lecturer and Student Exhibitions Coordinator\nExhibiting Artists and Designers\n\nRobin Beaney\nAdi Behar\nDavid Byun\nZoë Corley\nChloe Dennis\nViktoriya Finyak\nMaria Elena García-Murguía\nElisa Gasser\nOlivia Glynn\nRoe Halbert\nNadav Havilio\nDee Holmes\nRuby Hough\nUrvi Joshi\nEunice Kim\nHannah Kryzhan\nBen Levitsky\nJoyce Liu\nKatelyn Ma\nAlexandria Mainor\nErin Malone\nSummer Mansi\nCheyenne Moore\nElla Moxon\nShafiq Muqit\nAlex Nguyen\nAnna Noh\nLeanna Mokihana Paik\nEva Park\nMichelle Peng\nEliana Pettigrew\nZainab Rahmani\nOlivia Reed\nSky Roberts\nZachary Sebestyen\nOliver Lee St Cyr\nSophie Stillwagon\nVeronica Weinberg\nCaitlin Weingarden\nNala Arielle White\nAriel Williams\nSilas Williams\nKatherine Xu\nJoy Yang\n

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Consequence - Group Art Exhibition - Art as Environmental Activism
DESCRIPTION:This group exhibition is an in-depth exploration of the role of art as a powerful catalyst for environmental activism. At first glance\, these works each possess striking beauty. However\, a closer inspection reveals a profound and often unsettling depth that challenges one’s perceptions. \n\nThe artworks are imbued with many layers of meaning\, inviting us to engage critically with the themes presented and encouraging us to reflect on our often-fraught relationship with the natural world.   Through a variety of mediums and techniques\, these works prompt us to confront uncomfortable truths about climate change\, habitat loss\, and the disappearing biodiversity around us. \n\nCampbell’s captivating “Heatscape” series transforms what is often an intangible concept into the tangible realm by visually translating heat distribution data to depict the impact of urban design on climate.  This series offers a profound exploration of the intriguing phenomenon known as \"urban heat islands”\, a term that describes urban areas that absorb and radiate significantly more heat than their surrounding rural landscapes due to human activities and infrastructure.\n\n“Heatscape” invites us to engage in a deeper reflection about the profound impact that human ingenuity has wielded over the natural world\, serving as a visual reminder of our responsibility to urban design that is considerate to the environment and communities it impacts. This work challenges us to recognize the interplay between our lifestyles and the environment\, urging a dialogue about sustainable practices that could mitigate the effects of these heat islands.\n\nSnider’s work powerfully illustrates the remnants of industrialization\, capturing the unsettling essence of its aftermath. In his art\, we encounter an urban landscape that is strikingly devoid of human presence\, creating an almost haunting atmosphere. This absence of people amplifies the eerie feeling and serves as a warning about the enduring consequences of industrial progress. It prompts viewers to reflect on the environmental impact and the transformations that society has undergone\, urging us to consider what aspects of our world will persist in the wake of such change. Ultimately\, Snider’s poignant depictions challenge us to confront the stark reality of a landscape altered by human activity\, inviting contemplation on both the beauty and the desolation that can coexist in our modern environments.\n\nSandra Osip’s sculptures delve deeply into the juxtaposition of decay and destruction alongside the concepts of life and growth. Through her abstract structures\, she illustrates the profound effects climate change has on our urban landscapes and the planet as a whole. These pieces serve as a poignant reminder of the delicate balance between nature and human impact\, while Osip’s imaginative flowers evoke a sense of nostalgia and loss\, symbolizing the beauty of what has been irretrievably diminished in our world. By celebrating these natural forms\, she not only honors the richness of biodiversity but also raises awareness about the environmental crisis we face.\n\nCassells’ work not only celebrates a profound connection to nature and sustainable practices but also serves to illuminate the significant impact that climate change has on vulnerable communities. Through her art\, she investigates the intricate relationships between different environmental systems\, emphasizing how they are all interconnected. \n\nBy delving into these themes\, Cassells sheds light on the challenges faced by communities that often bear the brunt of climate change despite contributing the least to the problem. Her exploration encourages a deeper understanding of how environmental changes affect social structures and the lives of people in marginalized areas. In doing so\, she advocates for greater awareness and action to address these issues\, ultimately promoting a more sustainable and equitable future for all. \n\nShanna Merola’s photo-collages are informed by the stories of environmental justice struggles past and present.  Shanna Merola and Halima Afi Cassells collaborated on collage and interactive installations for over five years. Researching\, wandering\, photographing\, and creating together while interrogating the interconnectedness of environmental degradation\, and global corporatism\, and community response.\n\nSobel takes a more straightforward approach by helping us begin to grasp the reality of living in a world affected by climate change.  Her work described as “wilderness-based\, science-inspired”\, serves as a bridge\, connecting viewers to experiences that might seem too distant or unfolding too slowly for most people to comprehend firsthand. In doing so\, she not only raises awareness but also encourages dialogue about the pressing challenges our planet faces. Through her work\, Sobel facilitates a deeper understanding of the interconnection between humanity and the environment\, compelling us to reflect on our role in addressing these urgent issues.\n\nThese diverse approaches to creating art serve as powerful connections to the most critical and pressing environmental issues of our time. This engagement serves to deepen our understanding of these challenges from multiple perspectives\, including cultural\, social\, and scientific viewpoints.  \nFurthermore\, these approaches are not only meant to inform but also to inspire. They challenge us to reconsider our relationship with the planet and encourage us to take actionable steps toward sustainability.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Cathy Barry Art Exhibition
DESCRIPTION:Cathy Barry has a profound connection to the natural world\, which has shaped her artistic journey. She focuses on expressing gratitude\, compassion\, and a sense of responsibility towards environmental protection. After years of working with traditional media such as oil\, acrylic\, and watercolor\, her art is transitioning to more sustainable materials. The pigments she uses in her collages are sourced entirely from plants\, all collected and processed by Cathy herself from various locations throughout Michigan. This natural paint has become a vital part of her expressive palette\, driving her to approach her work with a renewed sense of integrity and awareness of our interconnected ecosystem.\n\nIn her collages\, Cathy skillfully combines paper painted with her homemade botanical pigments and intricately punched shapes\, creating a distinctive micro-scale vocabulary. These miniature worlds are thoughtfully assembled within larger contexts\, challenging our perceptions of the universe and our place within it.\n\nRecently\, Cathy has embarked on a new adventure: creating art directly from plant materials. By collecting\, drying\, and weaving leaves\, she has developed an exciting rhythm in her process. Through simple weaving\, twining\, and basketry techniques\, she has deepened her enthusiasm for and connection to the plants surrounding her in her yard and neighborhood. This integration of materials with form and subject in her work evokes a serene wholeness that reflects nature's inherent wisdom. Additionally\, her journey has sparked a curiosity to explore the historical uses and roles of plants throughout history.\n\nCathy Barry is an artist and instructor living and working in Ann Arbor\, Mi. She is a Lecturer in the University of Michigan (UM) Stamps School of Art and Design\, the UM Program in the Environment and the UM Biological Station.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:ICE in the Heartland: Community Impacts of Worksite Immigration Raids
DESCRIPTION:ICE in the Heartland showcases a multifaceted project that gathers and disseminates the stories of communities impacted by immigration worksite raids with the aim of bringing underrepresented narratives to news media\, classroom\, and public discourse. This project comprises qualitative public health research conducted in impacted communities and visual arts generated from the research outcomes. Research teams of graduate and undergraduate students from the University of Michigan\, led by Professor William Lopez\, and the University of Iowa\, led by Professor Nicole Novak\, collaborated with a range of community members and organizers at sites of six large-scale immigration worksite raids that occurred in 2018 in Iowa\, Nebraska\, Ohio\, Tennessee\, and Texas. The researchers visited these sites\, spoke to advocates\, detainees\, their families\, and other community members. In conversation with the seventy-seven interviews\, artists Dalia Harris and Carolina Jones Ortiz generated ten images that comprise ICE in the Heartland. On display with the artworks are community member testimonies\, analysis on the public health detriments to immigration worksite raids and deportation\, insights to the artists’ methods\, and the curricular materials used in public outreach programs. \n\nHosted and sponsored by the Institute for Research on Women and Gender and the Department of Women’s and Gender Studies\, U-M.

SUMMARY:Livestream / Virtual:On perturbation of completely integrable PDEs
DESCRIPTION:We revisit the perturbative theory of infinite-dimensional integrable systems developed by P. Deift and X. Zhou\, aiming to provide new and simpler proofs of some key L∞ bounds and Lᵖ a priori estimates. Our proofs emphasize a further step towards understanding focusing problems and extend the applicability to other integrable models. As a concrete application\, we examine the perturbation of the one-dimensional defocusing cubic nonlinear Schrödinger equation and modified KdV equations.

They should register for the next course level.* The test assesses students’ proficiency in Modern Standard Arabic (MSA)\, NOT colloquial Arabic.  * If you speak an Arabic dialect but you do not know how to read or write or have little knowledge\, feel free to register in Arabic 101.* Students who know some Arabic because they came from an Arabic-speaking household or have studied Arabic before\, must take the Arabic proficiency test in order to determine their placement.* Students who have taken Arabic at other institutions and wish to continue their Arabic study at UM must take the placement test to determine their level. Credits for Arabic study undertaken at another institution prior to joining UM or in a summer program while attending UM\, transfer in as generic departmental credits and students must take the placement test to determine credit equivalencies to UM courses.* If you place in or beyond the 401 level\, you will have satisfied the LSA language requirement. * Students are encouraged to take a placement test as early as possible in their studies in order to determine the level they should enroll in\, or if they test out of the language requirement. This is extremely important to avoid delays in graduation and complications with placement.* Arabic 101\, 201\, 401\, 501 are offered ONLY in the Fall semester\, and Arabic 102\, 202\, 402\, 504\, 511 are ONLY offered in the Winter semester.* Arabic 103 (the equivalent of Arabic 101 & 102\, combined) AND Arabic 203 (the equivalent of Arabic 201 & 202\, combined) are offered in the Spring-Summer terms.\nUM’s Arabic curriculum is a dual register curriculum in which students learn to speak and understand the Levantine dialect (the dialect of Jordan\, Syria\, Palestine and Lebanon) in addition to developing the four language skills of formal Arabic (fuSHa). \nIf you have questions regarding the placement test\, please contact the program director at\, mesarabicprogram@umich.edu.\n

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Government Procurement and Small Business: Evidence from the U.S.
DESCRIPTION:This paper studies the long-term effects of government procurement on small business growth\, using a novel matched dataset that links federal contracts awarded to small businesses and bidding data from construction procurements with firm-level outcomes from restricted Census administrative data. Using a matched difference-in-differences approach and a winner-versus-losers design\, the study documents several findings. First\, procurement contracts lead to sustained increases in small business revenue\, employment\, and earnings\, with effects persisting for up to five years beyond the contract period. These effects are not primarily explained by repeat contracting or long-duration contracts. Firms also experience short-run crowding out of private sales\, which later recover and exceed pre-contract levels. Using micro-level credit scores and labor share data\, the study shows that financially constrained and capital-intensive firms exhibit stronger post-contract growth. A dynamic investment model with financial frictions and government contracting demonstrates that a one-time procurement shock can rationalize these effects through a combination of productivity gains and relaxed financial constraints\, thereby enabling irreversible investment. Counterfactual simulations indicate that this persistence primarily reflects productivity gains rather than short-run easing of financing constraints.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:LRCCS Noon Lecture Series | Children's Ambient Heat Exposures\, Family Adaptation\, and Early Developmental Outcomes: New Evidence from the Survey of Early Education and Developmental Strengths (SEEDS)
DESCRIPTION:Attend in person or via Zoom: https://myumi.ch/qZrN2.\n\nThe prenatal period and early childhood are critical periods of vulnerability to climatic and environmental hazards such as extreme heat. Many families can protect children from the negative impacts of heat exposure through adaptive strategies and technologies\, but the most economically disadvantaged families may not be able to provide such buffers. This presentation will offer a national overview of children's changing ambient heat exposure in China. Additionally\, it will present preliminary findings about adaptation and child development from a survey of early education in urban\, suburban\, and rural districts belonging to a city sometimes known as one of China's \"furnace cities.\"\n   \nEmily Hannum is Stanley I. Sheerr Term Professor in the Social Sciences and Professor of Sociology at the University of Pennsylvania\, where she is also associate dean for social sciences. She is affiliated with the Population Studies Center\, the Center for the Study of Contemporary China\, the Graduate School of Education\, and the Penn Development Research Initiative. Her research interests are poverty and child welfare\, gender and ethnic stratification\, and sociology of education. Current projects focus on childhood poverty in China\, the implications of demographic decline for educational systems and educational inequality\, and climate risk\, pollution\, and children’s welfare in China and in comparative perspective.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Generative AI For Practitioners (Part 2)
DESCRIPTION:Please join for the next installment of the PDHP workshop series: Gen AI For Practitioners (Part 2)\, with Alexis Castellanos of the University Of Michigan. This workshop is a “sequel” to our original GenAI workshop from August of 2024\, which was an introduction to using GenAI as a workplace tool. This year’s workshop will refresh and expand on the concepts introduced in Part 1\, and update them for 2025 after 14 months of advancement in a field that moves with incredible pace. The 2025 workshop targets those that are already familiar with at least one of the popular web-based GenAI tools (ChatGPT\, Google Gemini\, and the like)\, and will focus on new advancements in the GenAI field\, while comparing all the top GenAI providers\, and offering live demonstration on ways to more effectively incorporate GenAI tools into your daily workflows.\nTopics include:\nComparing leading tools (ChatGPT\, Claude\, Google Gemini\, Grok\, and DeepSeek)\, while teaching effective prompting techniques\, parameter tuning (e.g.\, temperature\, system prompts)\, and evaluation methods for picking the right platform for the right task. Includes live examples of writing and refining prompts for research or coding tasks.\nUnderstanding AI model architecture and how it impacts common tasks\, including base LLMs\, instruction-tuned chatbots\, reasoning/”thinking” models (like DeepSeek-R1)\, diffusion models (e.g.\, Stable Diffusion for images)\, and multimodal tools such as OpenAI’s o1\, Gemini\, and Anthropic’s Claude Artifacts. Participants will see practical demos showing why these differences matter for everyday tasks like analysis\, text summarization\, and media generation.\nMoving beyond single tools into integrated ecosystems such as Retrieval-Augmented Generation (RAG)\, GitHub Copilot/code assistance\, research automation\, autonomous agents\, and Model Context Protocols (MCPs). Demonstrations will show how to design workflows that combine these elements for more powerful\, repeatable outcomes.\nPrivacy\, infrastructure\, and emerging trends\, including: data security and governance requirements\, frameworks for local/self-hosted models (Ollama\, LM Studio\, open-source LLMs)\, and hardware tradeoffs for running AI in-house. We will also discuss future trends in AI reasoning\, agent collaboration\, and compliance.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Settlers’ Republic: Land\, Infrastructure\, and the Emergence of New Technologies of Government in the United States\, 1789-1862
DESCRIPTION:In April 1792\, George and Rachel Ewing packed the whole of their household belongings onto a flat boat and set out on the Ohio River. Among their party was Thomas\, just over two years old. Together the Ewings—George\, Rachel\, Thomas\, and Thomas’s older brother and sister—floated one hundred miles downriver to settle near Olive Green Creek in what is now Ohio. There\, in the midst of the Northwest Indian War and living on land speculatively purchased and resold to Revolutionary War veterans like his father\, little Thomas would be raised. A little over fifty years later\, Thomas Ewing would be appointed the first Secretary of the Department of Interior. This book tells the story of how settlers like the Ewings built the American state and\, in the process\, contributed towards the making of political and economic modernity. It puts land at the center of American state formation to rethink the meaning of the United States’ founding and make visible the settler origins of American political and economic development. Its chapters trace the evolution of federal land policy\, the emergence of early administrative agencies such as the General Land Office and the Department of Interior\, and the increasingly fraught conflicts over territorial governance in the pre-Civil War period to chart the rise\, fall\, and afterlives of the United States as a settlers’ republic.\nThis analysis shows how it was through managing land that early Americans developed the administrative institutions\, special expertise\, and mode of seeing like a state that allowed the concrete management of land to turn into the abstract government of economy and society. Today\, we take for granted that we live in territorial nation-states governed by bureaucratic apparatuses empowered to make decisions in the name of a public good. Settlers’ Republic demonstrates the settler colonial origins of this modern state\, and makes visible the contradictions\, trade-offs\, and exclusions constitutive of how this political and economic formation came to be.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:On Castelnuovo-Mumford Regularity
DESCRIPTION:Castelnuovo–Mumford regularity is a notion that measures the complexity of graded ideals and modules. Mumford famously proved that regularity admits a uniform bound in flat families. This tool becomes crucial in that it allows one to construct the Hilbert scheme\, parameterizing closed subschemes with fixed Hilbert polynomial. In this talk\, I will somehow discuss all of these notions for saturated homogeneous ideals without ever saying the words \"ideal sheaf\"\, \"proj\"\, or \"representable functor\".

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:Colloquium: Lizhen Ji - The Unity of Mathematics Through the Uniformization Theorem
DESCRIPTION:The uniformization theorem is one of the most significant results in mathematics\, with a deceptively simple statement familiar to many: every simply connected Riemann surface is biholomorphic to one of three standard surfaces—the Riemann sphere\, the complex plane\, or the open unit disk. This theorem has profound extensions to higher dimensions\, including Thurston’s geometrization program and\, notably\, the resolution of the Poincaré conjecture. It is no wonder that this theorem is one of the most important theorems\, if not the most important theorem\, in the last 150 years.\n\nHowever\, its rich history and far-reaching impacts are often underappreciated. For example\, the initial formulations and attempted proofs by Klein and Poincaré using the method of continuity introduced many original ideas that have not been fully explored. Later\, Teichmüller’s innovative use of the method of continuity played a crucial role in his revolutionary work on Teichmüller space\, profoundly influencing the study of moduli spaces of Riemann surfaces. Yet\, this deep historical and conceptual connection is frequently overlooked.\n\nIn this talk\, I will trace the historical development of the uniformization theorem\, from its early formulations to its lasting influence across mathematics. I will explore its connections to seemingly unrelated results and modern mathematical areas\, particularly in Teichmüller theory and moduli spaces. Through this exploration\, I aim to shed light on the theorem’s profound influence\, inspire new perspectives on its unifying role in contemporary mathematics.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:Nam Center Colloquium Series | Critically Capitalist: The Spirit of Asset Capitalism in South Korea
DESCRIPTION:*Critically Capitalist* examines South Korea’s mass investment culture through the lens of “critical capitalism”—a paradoxical phenomenon where ordinary Koreans simultaneously critique capitalism while dedicating themselves to asset accumulation. Drawing on multi-sited fieldwork among amateur stock investors\, real estate enthusiasts\, and money coaches during the 2010s\, the book reveals how contemporary capitalism sustains itself by channeling popular discontent into financial and real estate markets. The book focuses on individuals aspiring to become millionaires in ten years. Rather than embodying the rational\, emotionally detached investor of economic theory\, these asset aspirants formed vibrant communities\, articulated sophisticated critiques of capitalism’s structural inequalities\, and openly expressed emotional wounds caused by exploitative labor and economic polarization.\n   \n   Critical capitalism emerged from popular discontent with both South Korea’s developmental state legacy and neoliberal financialization after the 1997 IMF crisis. Asset seekers positioned their speculative activities as resistance against corporate oppression and foreign capital domination\, while simultaneously embedding themselves deeper into financial markets. However\, their community building\, emotional expression\, and anti-capitalist rhetoric paradoxically legitimated their participation in dispossessive forms of capitalism. The book demonstrates how critique\, community\, and emotion function as the cultural and affective backbone of asset capitalism\, showing that contemporary capitalism thrives not despite its critics\, but precisely by incorporating their criticisms into new forms of market participation and wealth accumulation.\n   \n   Bohyeong Kim is an assistant professor of communication studies and Asian studies at Vanderbilt University. She is the author of *Critically Capitalist: The Spirit of Asset Capitalism in South Korea* (University of Michigan Press\, 2025)\, and her research centers on the relationship between media\, culture\, and the capitalist economy. Her work has appeared in Cultural Studies\, Journal of Cultural Economy\, Media\, Culture & Society\, Korean Journal of Communication\, Television & New Media\, among other journals. She is currently working on another book-length project about South Korea’s platform capitalism and the tech-media-finance conglomerate Kakao.\n\nIf there is anything we can do to make this event accessible to you\, please contact us at ncks.info@umich.edu. Please be aware that advance notice is necessary as some accommodations may require more time for the university to arrange.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:Organic Synthesis Lecture: Electrification and Decarbonization of Chemical Synthesis
DESCRIPTION:Chemical synthesis is responsible for significant emissions of carbon dioxide worldwide. These emissions arise not only due to the energy requirements of chemical synthesis\, but since hydrocarbon feedstocks can be overoxidized or used as hydrogen sources. Using renewable electricity to drive chemical synthesis may provide a route to overcoming these challenges\, enabling synthetic routes which operate at benign conditions and utilize sustainable inputs. We are developing an electrosynthetic toolkit in which distributed feedstocks\, including carbon dioxide\, dinitrogen\, water\, and renewable electricity\, can be converted into diverse fuels\, chemicals\, and materials. \n\nIn this presentation\, we will share recent advances made in our laboratory on nitrogen fixation to synthesize ammonia at ambient conditions. Specifically\, our lab has investigated a continuous lithium-mediated approach to ammonia synthesis and understood the reaction network that controls selectivity. We have developed non-aqueous gas-diffusion electrodes which lead to high rates of ammonia synthesis at ambient conditions. We will also discuss how water can be used as a sustainable oxygen-atom source and how carbon dioxide can be used to achieve carbon chain extension. These findings will be discussed in the context of a broader range of electrosynthetic transformations which could lead to local and on-demand production of critical chemicals and materials.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Reading Seminar I: The Space of Ending Lamination
DESCRIPTION:The Ending Lamination Conjecture was one of the central problems in the theory of 3-manifolds and its resolution in the 2000s by Brock–Canary–Minsky stands as a milestone in the classification of hyperbolic 3-manifolds. The proof required a deep understanding of the space of ending laminations and combined a wide range of ideas and techniques\, many of which continue to play a crucial role across current research areas.\n\nIn this reading seminar\, we will study the topological properties of the space of ending laminations\, following Gabai’s 2008 paper. Our third meeting will revisit the notion of lamination\, foliation\, and train track.

SUMMARY:Presentation:The Afterlives of Sound: Memory\, Ethnography\, and the Borderlands
DESCRIPTION:An immersive poetic and musical passage\, Alex E. Chávez’s recently-released album Sonorous Present extends sonic meditations on loss\, migration\, and memory across America’s borderlands—as physical place and liminal space. What began as an experimental and improvised performance—inspired by the music and poetics of Chávez’s multi-award-winning book Sounds of Crossing (Duke 2017)—was subsequently reimagined as a studio album in collaboration with Grammy Award-winning producer Quetzal Flores\, and features luminaries from the worlds of traditional Mexican son\, poetry\, and jazz. Through integration of a range of scholarly disciplines and communities of artistic practice\, this multi-modal scholarly work uniquely integrates an epic spectrum of regional Mexican and Latin American sonic elements with field recordings and ethnographic songwriting drawn from years of research across the U.S.-Mexico border and his own personal experiences of personal loss. In his talk\, The Afterlives of Sound: Memory\, Ethnography\, and the Borderlands\, Chávez addresses how this work crosses the sunburst surreal of America’s musical and cultural borderlands\, refiguring the borders of both performance and intellectual engagement to strategically reimagine the possibilities and forms scholarship can take.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:Data & AI in Society Lecture Series | Deepfakes: How Artificial Intelligence is Powering a New Age of Disinformation
DESCRIPTION:Abstract:\nDisinformation has been part of society since the days of Sun Tzu\, the ancient Chinese military strategist\, who wrote that “all war is deception.” In recent years\, technology has fueled an explosion in disinformation\, allowing hostile foreign adversaries and political operatives to sow discord in society and undermine public confidence in democratic elections. Now\, deepfakes have changed the game\, creating images\, videos\, and audio recordings making it appear that people have said and done things that they have not\, creating deception\, confusion\, and cynicism. Solutions exist on the supply and demand side\, from government regulation to public education\, if we can overcome the polarization that causes some politicians to value controversies over solutions.\n\nMeet Barbara McQuade:\nBarbara McQuade is a professor from practice at the University of Michigan Law School\, where she teaches courses in criminal law\, criminal procedure\, and national security. She is also a legal analyst for NBC News and MSNBC. She is the author of the New York Times bestseller\, Attack from Within: How Disinformation is Sabotaging America.\n\nFrom 2010 to 2017\, Ms. McQuade served as the U.S Attorney for the Eastern District of Michigan. Her office brought cases involving public corruption\, terrorism\, white collar crime\, and civil rights violations\, among others. Ms. McQuade was appointed by President Barack Obama\, and was the first woman to serve in her position.\n\nBefore becoming U.S. Attorney\, Ms. McQuade was an Assistant U.S. Attorney in Detroit for 12 years\, serving as Deputy Chief of the National Security Unit. Before joining the U.S. Attorney’s Office\, Ms. McQuade practiced law at the firm of Butzel Long in Detroit from 1993 to 1998\, and served as a law clerk to Hon. Bernard A. Friedman on the U.S. District Court for the Eastern District of Michigan from 1991 to 1993. She is a graduate of the University of Michigan (LSA ’87 and Law ’91). She and her husband have four children and live in Ann Arbor.

SUMMARY:Film Screening:MCSP Social Justice Film Series: Undivide Us
DESCRIPTION:Join Michigan Community Scholars Program to examine the prevailing narrative of political polarization and an America “more divided than it has ever been before.” As news and social media amplify a narrative of an America on the brink of civil war\, politicians in Washington\, DC stir conflict: red against blue\, rich against poor\, urban against rural\, race against race\, and man against woman. They cast us as enemies locked in battle\, usurping power and posing as our saviors.\n\nUNDIVIDE US challenges the idea that citizens who disagree are not capable of civil conversation and demonstrates the truth that\, even in our differences\, the American experiment is still alive and well. Come learn how ordinary and courageous people develop skills and commitment to bridge differences of politics and identity.

SUMMARY:Performance:Alex Johnson\, carillon (University of Chicago): “Knock Knock\, it’s 1510\, Carillon Time”
DESCRIPTION:Good luck finding the beat in these time-oriented selections across the ages of carillon music – 1510 being the birth year of the carillon. In Arthur Meulemans’ *Toccata*\, downbeat versus upbeat clarity is constantly obscured. In *Aqua*\, breath-based time\, a series of short gestures separated by a duration determined entirely by listening and breathing. Matthias Vanden Gheyn\, the first composer from whom exists written music for a carillonist to perform\, wrote a series of preludes that make very idiomatic use of the different registers of the carillon. The result: near perpetual motion in the treble bells. Next\, flexible time (rubato): Jef Denyn’s *Preludium in D*\, a highly romantic work by the founder of the Royal Carillon School in Belgium\, the world’s first school for carillon. The four movements of Werner Van Cleemput’s *3 Sonneries & 1 Bis* each use a different rhythmic or temporal syntax. The first movement makes delightfully clunky use of gestures and accents that obscure the underlying meter\, the second movement is freer and airier\, the third movement fits very clearly and vigorously into its time signature\, and the finale is a constant accelerando. The final piece\, *Absorptions*\, is seven systems\, seven little worlds into which the performer is to settle and explore before moving on. Each world has a direction\, specific enough for coherence\, vague enough to allow the performer room to explore\, for example: ‘wobbly walking’\, ‘a chord\, very occasionally’\, and ‘turbulent tremolo’. Meditative time.\n\nFree and open to the public\; presented in conjunction with the 2025 U-M Organ Conference: \"Ludus Chronalis: Time\, Cadence\, and Temporality in Keyboard Music and Sacred Spaces.\"\n\nABOUT THE GUEST ARTIST\n\nALEX JOHNSON is the seventh University Carillonist of the University of Chicago. In this role\, he regularly plays the seventy-two bell\, one-hundred ton Laura Spelman Rockefeller Memorial Carillon for Sunday services\, weddings\, convocations\, and other major university events. He also instructs and advises the twenty members of the UChicago Guild of Carillonists\, a student organization which provides the campus most of its carillon music during the week. Alex serves the Guild of Carillonneurs in North America as chair of the Arrangements & Transcriptions Subcommittee of Music Publications and as a juror for the Johan Franco Composition Committee. Alex has performed across North America\, Europe\, and Australia\, and he is an avid composer\, improviser\, and supporter of new music.\n\nPreviously\, Alex taught high school math in Austin\, Texas\, where he played and taught the carillon informally at the University of Texas. Alex graduated summa cum laude from the Royal Carillon School ‘Jef Denyn’ in Belgium\, and before that he studied in residency as the Carillon Fellow at Bok Tower Gardens in Lake Wales\, Florida. Alex began his carillon studies at the University of Rochester\, from where he obtained a degree in Physics. During his college years\, he studied gamelan and mbira music at Eastman School of Music\, and he spent a semester abroad studying and playing the carillon in Australia at the University of Sydney. In 2019\, Alex won 1st Prize Overall\, Best Performance of a Work by a Belgian Composer\, and the Improvisation Competition at the 8th iteration of the most prestigious carillon competition\, the International Queen Fabiola Carillon Competition\, held in Mechelen\, Belgium. Besides carillon\, Alex enjoys cooking and spending time with nature\, which\, as a Hyde Park local\, means spending lots of time at the Point.

SUMMARY:Performance:Nigamon/Tunai
DESCRIPTION:In the heart of a forest of sound\, Canadian artist Émilie Monnet and Colombian artist Waira Nina deliver a poetic manifesto inspired by the bonds of friendship and solidarity.\n\nNigamon / Tunai (the words translate to “song” in the Anishinaabemowin and Inga languages) is an immersive performance ritual rooted in the presence of the natural world and co-exists with the audience\, who are in close proximity to the performers on the Power Center stage.\n\nAt the crossroads of friendship and resistance\, the two women invite us to listen deeply and to understand the knowledge and struggles that link their respective cultures: the depletion and plundering of natural resources that are core to their existence.\n\nInterweaving immersive performance and audio documentary with Indigenous knowledge and voices\, this mesmerizing new theatrical work invites audiences into ritualized listening\, and to feel the sound vibrations emitted by the surrounding water\, stones\, copper\, and tree trunks. Linked by the figure of the turtle\, which is central to both of their origin stories\, the two women form an effective alliance advocating for the protection of water\, land\, stars\, and ancestral knowledge.\n\nLooking for free student tickets? All U-M undergraduate students are eligible to receive a FREE ticket to a UMS performance per academic year through the Bert’s Ticket program (a $20 value)!

SUMMARY:Exhibition:2025 Second Year Studio Exhibition
DESCRIPTION:August 18 - October 24\, 2025Exhibition Reception: September 11\, 3-5 p.m.\n\"In their second year\, Stamps students complete a major milestone: Second Year Studio (SYS). It’s a course where\, per the syllabus\, students 'develop the capacity to work independently by identifying\, exploring\, and pursuing a single independent project that involves multiple iterations.' Each student takes their own path\, encountering questions that can shape the direction of their creative practice—how do I manage my time? How much constraint vs. freedom do I thrive on? What subject matter do I care about most deeply? How do my ideas about my future goals intersect with the work I want to make now? At the end of the semester\, students formally report on their experience in a presentation called the Sophomore Review\, and a faculty panel offers individualized feedback. \nUntil now\, the classroom studios and review rooms have been the only place to catch a glimpse of the art and design work resulting from this pivotal course. Last year\, Associate Dean for Academic Programs Rebecca Strzelec proposed something new: an exhibition installed throughout the Art &amp\; Architecture Building during the summer that would celebrate Second Year Studio work and help to welcome the community back in the Fall. This inaugural 2025 Second Year Studio Exhibition showcases our rising third-years and transfer students\, and invites first-years and other newcomers to explore both the building\, and the creative possibilities ahead. The show features 44 students who have volunteered to participate\, yet it honors every Stamps major who reaches the SYS milestone. \nThe pieces on view span a wide array of media and capture a specific moment in each maker’s path—experiments in previously unfamiliar methods\, emergent passions\, creative risks taken\, iterations and reiterations\, and the seeds of so much future work.\"\n- Sally Clegg\, Lecturer and Student Exhibitions Coordinator\nExhibiting Artists and Designers\n\nRobin Beaney\nAdi Behar\nDavid Byun\nZoë Corley\nChloe Dennis\nViktoriya Finyak\nMaria Elena García-Murguía\nElisa Gasser\nOlivia Glynn\nRoe Halbert\nNadav Havilio\nDee Holmes\nRuby Hough\nUrvi Joshi\nEunice Kim\nHannah Kryzhan\nBen Levitsky\nJoyce Liu\nKatelyn Ma\nAlexandria Mainor\nErin Malone\nSummer Mansi\nCheyenne Moore\nElla Moxon\nShafiq Muqit\nAlex Nguyen\nAnna Noh\nLeanna Mokihana Paik\nEva Park\nMichelle Peng\nEliana Pettigrew\nZainab Rahmani\nOlivia Reed\nSky Roberts\nZachary Sebestyen\nOliver Lee St Cyr\nSophie Stillwagon\nVeronica Weinberg\nCaitlin Weingarden\nNala Arielle White\nAriel Williams\nSilas Williams\nKatherine Xu\nJoy Yang\n

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Consequence - Group Art Exhibition - Art as Environmental Activism
DESCRIPTION:This group exhibition is an in-depth exploration of the role of art as a powerful catalyst for environmental activism. At first glance\, these works each possess striking beauty. However\, a closer inspection reveals a profound and often unsettling depth that challenges one’s perceptions. \n\nThe artworks are imbued with many layers of meaning\, inviting us to engage critically with the themes presented and encouraging us to reflect on our often-fraught relationship with the natural world.   Through a variety of mediums and techniques\, these works prompt us to confront uncomfortable truths about climate change\, habitat loss\, and the disappearing biodiversity around us. \n\nCampbell’s captivating “Heatscape” series transforms what is often an intangible concept into the tangible realm by visually translating heat distribution data to depict the impact of urban design on climate.  This series offers a profound exploration of the intriguing phenomenon known as \"urban heat islands”\, a term that describes urban areas that absorb and radiate significantly more heat than their surrounding rural landscapes due to human activities and infrastructure.\n\n“Heatscape” invites us to engage in a deeper reflection about the profound impact that human ingenuity has wielded over the natural world\, serving as a visual reminder of our responsibility to urban design that is considerate to the environment and communities it impacts. This work challenges us to recognize the interplay between our lifestyles and the environment\, urging a dialogue about sustainable practices that could mitigate the effects of these heat islands.\n\nSnider’s work powerfully illustrates the remnants of industrialization\, capturing the unsettling essence of its aftermath. In his art\, we encounter an urban landscape that is strikingly devoid of human presence\, creating an almost haunting atmosphere. This absence of people amplifies the eerie feeling and serves as a warning about the enduring consequences of industrial progress. It prompts viewers to reflect on the environmental impact and the transformations that society has undergone\, urging us to consider what aspects of our world will persist in the wake of such change. Ultimately\, Snider’s poignant depictions challenge us to confront the stark reality of a landscape altered by human activity\, inviting contemplation on both the beauty and the desolation that can coexist in our modern environments.\n\nSandra Osip’s sculptures delve deeply into the juxtaposition of decay and destruction alongside the concepts of life and growth. Through her abstract structures\, she illustrates the profound effects climate change has on our urban landscapes and the planet as a whole. These pieces serve as a poignant reminder of the delicate balance between nature and human impact\, while Osip’s imaginative flowers evoke a sense of nostalgia and loss\, symbolizing the beauty of what has been irretrievably diminished in our world. By celebrating these natural forms\, she not only honors the richness of biodiversity but also raises awareness about the environmental crisis we face.\n\nCassells’ work not only celebrates a profound connection to nature and sustainable practices but also serves to illuminate the significant impact that climate change has on vulnerable communities. Through her art\, she investigates the intricate relationships between different environmental systems\, emphasizing how they are all interconnected. \n\nBy delving into these themes\, Cassells sheds light on the challenges faced by communities that often bear the brunt of climate change despite contributing the least to the problem. Her exploration encourages a deeper understanding of how environmental changes affect social structures and the lives of people in marginalized areas. In doing so\, she advocates for greater awareness and action to address these issues\, ultimately promoting a more sustainable and equitable future for all. \n\nShanna Merola’s photo-collages are informed by the stories of environmental justice struggles past and present.  Shanna Merola and Halima Afi Cassells collaborated on collage and interactive installations for over five years. Researching\, wandering\, photographing\, and creating together while interrogating the interconnectedness of environmental degradation\, and global corporatism\, and community response.\n\nSobel takes a more straightforward approach by helping us begin to grasp the reality of living in a world affected by climate change.  Her work described as “wilderness-based\, science-inspired”\, serves as a bridge\, connecting viewers to experiences that might seem too distant or unfolding too slowly for most people to comprehend firsthand. In doing so\, she not only raises awareness but also encourages dialogue about the pressing challenges our planet faces. Through her work\, Sobel facilitates a deeper understanding of the interconnection between humanity and the environment\, compelling us to reflect on our role in addressing these urgent issues.\n\nThese diverse approaches to creating art serve as powerful connections to the most critical and pressing environmental issues of our time. This engagement serves to deepen our understanding of these challenges from multiple perspectives\, including cultural\, social\, and scientific viewpoints.  \nFurthermore\, these approaches are not only meant to inform but also to inspire. They challenge us to reconsider our relationship with the planet and encourage us to take actionable steps toward sustainability.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Cathy Barry Art Exhibition
DESCRIPTION:Cathy Barry has a profound connection to the natural world\, which has shaped her artistic journey. She focuses on expressing gratitude\, compassion\, and a sense of responsibility towards environmental protection. After years of working with traditional media such as oil\, acrylic\, and watercolor\, her art is transitioning to more sustainable materials. The pigments she uses in her collages are sourced entirely from plants\, all collected and processed by Cathy herself from various locations throughout Michigan. This natural paint has become a vital part of her expressive palette\, driving her to approach her work with a renewed sense of integrity and awareness of our interconnected ecosystem.\n\nIn her collages\, Cathy skillfully combines paper painted with her homemade botanical pigments and intricately punched shapes\, creating a distinctive micro-scale vocabulary. These miniature worlds are thoughtfully assembled within larger contexts\, challenging our perceptions of the universe and our place within it.\n\nRecently\, Cathy has embarked on a new adventure: creating art directly from plant materials. By collecting\, drying\, and weaving leaves\, she has developed an exciting rhythm in her process. Through simple weaving\, twining\, and basketry techniques\, she has deepened her enthusiasm for and connection to the plants surrounding her in her yard and neighborhood. This integration of materials with form and subject in her work evokes a serene wholeness that reflects nature's inherent wisdom. Additionally\, her journey has sparked a curiosity to explore the historical uses and roles of plants throughout history.\n\nCathy Barry is an artist and instructor living and working in Ann Arbor\, Mi. She is a Lecturer in the University of Michigan (UM) Stamps School of Art and Design\, the UM Program in the Environment and the UM Biological Station.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:ICE in the Heartland: Community Impacts of Worksite Immigration Raids
DESCRIPTION:ICE in the Heartland showcases a multifaceted project that gathers and disseminates the stories of communities impacted by immigration worksite raids with the aim of bringing underrepresented narratives to news media\, classroom\, and public discourse. This project comprises qualitative public health research conducted in impacted communities and visual arts generated from the research outcomes. Research teams of graduate and undergraduate students from the University of Michigan\, led by Professor William Lopez\, and the University of Iowa\, led by Professor Nicole Novak\, collaborated with a range of community members and organizers at sites of six large-scale immigration worksite raids that occurred in 2018 in Iowa\, Nebraska\, Ohio\, Tennessee\, and Texas. The researchers visited these sites\, spoke to advocates\, detainees\, their families\, and other community members. In conversation with the seventy-seven interviews\, artists Dalia Harris and Carolina Jones Ortiz generated ten images that comprise ICE in the Heartland. On display with the artworks are community member testimonies\, analysis on the public health detriments to immigration worksite raids and deportation\, insights to the artists’ methods\, and the curricular materials used in public outreach programs. \n\nHosted and sponsored by the Institute for Research on Women and Gender and the Department of Women’s and Gender Studies\, U-M.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Stacey L. Kirby: The Bureau of Personal Belonging (Ann Arbor Edition)
DESCRIPTION:Exhibition Dates: September 27 - November 8\, 2025\nOpening Performances: September 27\, 1-5 p.m.Closing Performances: November 8\, 1-5 p.m.\nStacey L. Kirby’s The Bureau of Personal Belonging is a series of interactive performances set within immersive installations and activated by viewer participation. The work fosters dialogue on identity\, community\, and civil engagement. Through bureaucratic forms\, papers\, postures\, language\, and aesthetics\, audiences are invited to participate in respectful dialogues and playful interactions with the artist. As the 2025 Roman J. Witt Artist-in-Residence\, Kirby spent 12 weeks on campus from January through March of 2025 meeting with students\, faculty\, and staff from the Stamps School and across U-M. Based on these conversations\, Kirby devised a site-specific installation that seeks to amplify the voices of the U-M community\, uphold the value of democratic civic engagement\, and highlight the power of art in building solidarity and mutual respect.\nCurated by Srimoyee Mitra.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Fore-Site (Phase 1): The Stamps Gallery Pillar Project
DESCRIPTION:Phase 1 Opening Reception: September 18\, 6:30 – 8:30 p.m.\nFrom September 2025 through August 2026\, Stamps Gallery is partnering in a curatorial collaboration with two Ypsilanti-based\, artist-run project spaces led by Stamps alumni: C.Y.N.K. Studios\, directed by Sally Clegg (Lecturer III and Student Exhibition Coordinator\, MFA ’20) and Abhishek Narula (MFA ’20)\; and Sometimes Space\, directed by Nathan Byrne (Lecturer I\, MFA ’21). Each space hosts dozens of artists annually for exhibitions\, performances\, and events\, fostering experimental work and building community. For this project\, Byrne\, Clegg\, and Narula have been commissioned to reimagine the pillars on Division Street that flank the gallery. In response\, they've curated six artists to create new work for the pillars over three cycles:\nPhase 1 (September 12 - December 12) artists: Amelia Burns (Cranbrook MFA '23) and Erin McKenna (MFA '20)Phase 2 (January 12 - April 12) artists: Sally Clegg (MFA '20) and Kim Karlsrud (MFA '20)Phase 3 (May 12 - August 12) artists: Abhishek Narula (MFA '20) and Nathan Byrne (MFA '21)\nPhase 1 Curatorial Statement\nCurated by Sometimes Space: Amelia Burns (entry pillar)Curated by CYNK Studios: Erin McKenna (courtyard pillar)\nArtists Amelia Burns and Erin McKenna reimagine the Division Street pillars through digital collages rooted in memory\, landscape and shared environments. Burns arranges fragments of her own photographs into airy compositions where these pictorial remnants become enshrined by the artist’s vision of the sacred. McKenna draws from the language of quilting\, organizing her photos of mushrooms\, moss and lichen into vibrant geometric patterns which echo Ohio textile traditions. Both artists\, Midwestern women attentive to the nuances of place\, weave personal imagery into collective meaning. Together\, their works create spaces of reverence and connection.\nAmelia Burns: GODSPROMISESRISINGHIGHGODSPROMISESRISINGHIGH contains fragments of photographs I have made over years in various locations in the United States. Each fragment holds personal meaning for me. The exalted pieces of environments float together and create a visual smorgasbord of symbols\, denoting a capitalist world\, filled with tender moments and connections\, where all objects are made holy.\nErin McKenna: Mushroom TrailMushroom Trail reimagines the Ohio Star quilt block through a collage of photographs of mushrooms\, lichen\, and moss gathered during walks in my Appalachian forest home. I created small blocks of repeating patterns to build texture and color. Inspired by the Barn Quilt Trail\, the work honors Ohio’s yard art traditions. Like other local expressions\, from chainsaw-carved bears to the front porch goose\, it fosters a shared sense of pride of place\, and community.\nArtist Statements/Bios\nAmelia BurnsThrough my travels across nearly every U.S. state\, I document not only the natural world but also its entanglement with human influence. My work speaks to the loneliness\, humor\, beauty\, pain\, and joy that coexist within these spaces. The landscapes I create—whether photographic or collage-based—are imbued with a visceral connection to the physical environments I’ve passed through. They are a reprocessing of the cultural detritus that surrounds me\, transforming fragments into vignettes that explore both the darkness and resilience of humanity.\nAt its core\, my work explores the underworld of human experience\, grappling with the visceral tension between authenticity and artifice in contemporary Americana. It reflects the disgusting horror of capitalism\, the mysticism of my Irish Catholic upbringing\, and the profound solitude that fuels my process. The resulting images are landscapes of seeking\, filled with the pain\, glory\, and quiet resistance of life.\nAmelia Burns is a photographer\, collage artist\, curator and educator exploring the cultural and physical landscapes of the U.S.\, capturing the nuances of shared environments. She earned her BFA in Photography from Pratt Institute in 2005 and later completed her MFA at Cranbrook Academy of Art in 2023. Website / Instagram\nErin McKenna Erin McKenna is an interdisciplinary artist with a background in sculpture. Her practice embraces humor\, playful misuse\, and celebration as strategies to dismantle stereotypes and complicate binaries of construction and embellishment. With a feminist lens\, she explores the space where necessity meets excess\, highlighting the subversive potential of both. Her sculptures often pair gritty building materials with tactile fabrics\, generating tension between utility and ornament. Growing up in a perpetually unfinished home—a place of sawdust\, chop saws\, and improvisation—instilled in her a respect for visible labor\, inventive problem-solving\, and imperfection. Her process follows personal rules:\nno hierarchy of materialssubvert expected usecomplicate binaries\, stereotypes and associationsmisuse\, misapplyallow for variable arrangementsrepeat\, reiterate\, reuseconsider the subversive possibilities of the excessive\, fantastic\, and necessaryalways let the labor be visible\nMcKenna earned her BFA from Columbus College of Art &amp\; Design in 2012 and later completed her MFA at Stamps School of Art &amp\; Design at the University of Michigan. She recently moved back to the forest she calls home in Southeastern Ohio\, where she serves as Exhibitions Director at The Dairy Barn Arts Center\, hunts for mushrooms with her toddler\, and makes quilts.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:For All Ages Exhibit
DESCRIPTION:In the 19th century\, new ideas about childhood and education\, along with advances in printing like chromolithography\, made it possible to mass-produce games and toys. These were not only fun to play with but also taught practical skills and moral lessons. Learn about familiar and unique toys and board games throughout American history in the William L. Clements Library’s new exhibit\, “For All Ages” on view weekdays from 12-4 pm between October 3-January 5.\n\nEven though the objects are behind glass\, the co-curators have created an interactive way to explore the display. Visit the exhibit to participate in a scavenger hunt and win a prize!
