For this year's theme Express Yourself—a vibrant celebration of self-expression—we want to shed light on the creative avenues you take to navigate post-pandemic life and in light of day to day stressors. We extend a warm invitation to our attendees to share the stories of emergence\, immersion\, and transformation that define their unique journeys.

This symposium is your canvas to showcase your authentic selves\, a sanctuary where you can be true to your identity even in the face of oppressive spaces. Through an inspiring array of presentations\, workshops\, showcases\, and a captivating keynote address\, our program aims to kindle the flame of creativity within you. Our vision is for each participant to leave feeling not only motivated but also empowered to explore their creative depths\, envisioning a future marked by equity\, particularly for marginalized groups.

Let's embark on this transformative journey together!Each year\, SCOR is proud to host an annual social justice symposium. This event is a part of SCOR’s legacy and a testament to our commitment of fostering dialogue and awareness surrounding the academic\, social\, and cultural journeys of graduate students of color at the University of Michigan. While the symposium is thoughtfully designed with the needs and experiences of graduate students in focus\, we extend invitations to both undergraduate students and faculty\, recognizing that our experiences are not only unique to us. We understand it is important to garner a supportive community. We seek support from faculty who have navigated similar paths and from other students who resonate with the symposium themes. This is also an opportune time to connect with others who are contemplating their next steps after undergraduate or masters studies. Aligned with our mission\, SCOR welcomes everyone\, irrespective of identities\, religion\, culture or abilities to participate in the symposium\, showcasing the rich diversity and wealth of scholarly talent that Michigan graduate students have to offer. In pursuit of our objectives\, this year's symposium revolves around the theme \"Express Yourself—a vibrant celebration of self-expression.\" Our aim is to cultivate a safe and encouraging space for students to explore creative outlets and illuminate how their multifaceted experiences shape their research\, hobbies\, and other interests in the face of challenging realities.

SUMMARY:Performance:\"Good. Steady. Still.\" - Master of Fine Arts in Dance First Year Performance
DESCRIPTION:After a semester of curation and making\, this event features works by Kiana Cook\, Scott Crandall\, Leah Crosby\, Ginny Jiang\, and Timothy Tsang\, students who were enrolled in Dance 532 (Grad Performance) with Professor Charli Brissey in the winter 2024 term. *Good. Steady. Still.* is a diverse 60-minute show with original lighting design by Mary Cole. \n\nFree tickets are available at the door starting one hour before the performance. Doors open at 7:30 and the show starts promptly at 8pm with no intermission. This performance is made possible through generous support from University of Michigan-Ann Arbor’s School of Music\, Theatre & Dance.\n\nKiana “KC” Cook will present a work on her identity development as a mixed-race child turned woman entitled\, *Steady Searchin’ for My Halo*. Scott Crandall’s *Cousin Lizzie’s First Birthday* is an experiment in how to lengthen and shrink the distance between performer and audience\, and between the audience members from each other. Leah Crosby’s *Tenderizing* uses junk shop technology to tell stories about learning how to be taken care of. It is an illustrated podcast\, it is a puppet show… It is basically a really emo powerpoint presentation. Ginny Jiang’s piece is filled with seemingly ridiculous\, abnormal\, unsafe\, wary\, probing actions which hint at the character of a person's body and movements. Inspired by acts of self-navigation and resistance\, Ginny delves into the wilderness of thought and the meaning of wild\, free-growing vitality through the power of vision and figuration. Timothy Tsang is debuting a solo as a tribute to the memory of Brian Anthony Moczygemba.\n\nAccessibility: ADA accessible\nContent Rating: PG-13 for mild language\n\nABOUT THE ARTISTS\n \nKIANA “KC” COOK is a multidisciplinary artist\, cultural producer\, and practitioner of street and social dance forms from the African diaspora. She is currently integrating her songwriting\, raps\, and a loop machine into her performance-making process.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:Astronomy Night
DESCRIPTION:Experience history and astronomy at the Detroit Observatory! We are excited to start off Astronomy night with a feature talk from U-M Astronomy Professor Emily Rauscher called Weird and Wacky Weather on Extrasolar Worlds.\n\nMany of the exoplanets that have been found orbiting around nearby stars have atmospheres completely unlike any in our Solar System. The most extreme examples have supersonic winds\, clouds made of mineral and metallic dust\, and even electrical currents flowing through the gas. Prof. Rauscher will discuss how we learn about these extreme examples of weather\, from both observations and computer models.\n\nTalk begins at 8PM and will be followed by tours at 8:30PM through the historic Detroit Observatory and\, if weather permits\, night sky observing through the historic Fitz Telescope.\n\nYou may purchase a ticket for either the talk plus telescope observing or just for telescope observing.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Propositions to Progress: A Working Atlas of the Global South
DESCRIPTION:Historically\, maps have served as a panoptic technology\, assisting imperial powers in governance\, discipline\, and control. In this exhibit\, internationally renowned Filipino artist Cian Dayrit acts as a counter-cartographer\, reclaiming mapmaking as an emancipatory activity.\n\nDayrit’s artworks\, embroidered on textiles or painted over collages of colonial-era maps\, plot the extraction of natural resources\, land grabbing\, and dispossession and displacement in his native Philippines. At the same time\, their resistant lines summon new imaginaries out of the overlaps between places and memories.\n\nDayrit’s practice is critically and practically informed by the narratives of Filipino communities. Items exhibited alongside his artwork are the result of map-drawing workshops the artist has convened with rural\, urban\, and indigenous communities across the Philippines. Propositions to Progress invites you to engage in the collaborative endeavor to activate alternative territories from the ground up.\n\nCian Dayrit is an interdisciplinary artist exploring colonialism and ethnography\, archaeology\, history\, and mythology. Dayrit subverts the language of the state\, museum\, and military to visualize the contradictions on which these institutions are built. He studied at the University of the Philippines.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Souq Stories: Gaza Lives
DESCRIPTION:This exhibit is an extension of Souq Stories (https://souqstories.insaniyyat.org/)\, which was displayed in 2021 in all seven of the historic markets it depicts in Gaza\, Nazareth\, Acre\, Nablus\, Jerusalem\, Khalil\, and Jaffa. Its youth group organizers aimed to bolster Palestinian unity across the systemic barriers — colonial divides\, military checkpoints\, walls\, etc. — that fragment the lives of people living in Palestine. \n\nSouq Stories: Gaza Lives brings us to present-day Gaza\, sharing the stories of\, and images captured by\, young journalists and photographers who have continued to document the realities of life in Palestine. It also honors one among them\, Fouad Abu Khammash\, who was killed in January 2024 in an Israeli bomb attack on Gaza.\n\n< The exhibit includes images of people suffering the aftermath of the ongoing violence. >\n\nThis exhibit was curated by Souq Stories team members Shareef Sarhan and Waed Abbas in partnership with U-M students Amir Marshi\, Zainab Hakim\, Mariam Odeh\, and Vivian M. Nguyen. It’s offered in conjunction with this year’s Palestine Awareness Week\, an annual series of educational events related to Palestinian history\, culture\, and politics. Presented in association with Insaniyyat: Society of Palestinian Anthropologists.

SUMMARY:Conference / Symposium:\"Death and Its Afterlives: De/composing Boundaries\" Conference
DESCRIPTION:Death and Its Afterlives: De/composing Boundaries\n28th Annual CLIFF Conference\nUniversity of Michigan\, Ann Arbor\nMarch 8-9\, 2024\nKeynote Speaker: Dr. Luciana Chamorro\, Department of Anthropology\, University of Michigan\n\nFull schedule and abstract descriptions linked here: https://lsa.umich.edu/complit/news-events/all-news/search-news/everything-you-need-to-know-about-this-year-s-cliff.html\n\nFrom necropolitics to ecological decline\, from digital dead links to haunted sites\, from the material ruins of late capitalism to the allegorical decay of “late style\,” this year’s CLIFF conference seeks to de/compose the boundaries between the living and the dead. We hope to bring together a diverse set of critical interests and disciplines on a terrain where death and precarious (after)lives lay bare the politics of exclusion\, the erosion of memory\, and the ethical responsibilities that confront us in the face of current crises. Our graduate student-organized conference aims to foster interdisciplinary dialogues\; we welcome researchers\, independent scholars\, and artists to join us in exploring death\, rebirth\, and the in-between.\n\nFor our 28th annual conference\, the Comparative Literature Intra-student Faculty Forum (CLIFF) invites 15 minute presentations based in literary analysis\, critical theory\, history\, politics\, anthropology\, translation studies\, and interdisciplinary work. These presentations may take the form of academic papers\, creative work\, performance\, and/or visual media. \n\nWe are very pleased to announce that this year’s keynote speaker will be Dr. Luciana Chamorro\, professor of Anthropology at the University of Michigan. Dr. Chamorro is a socio-cultural anthropologist studying revolution and its afterlives in the Central American region and its diasporas. Her work includes research on political revolution and violence\, desire and affect\, generational difference\, states of exception\, and feminist and queer imaginaries of the future. \n\nIf you are planning to attend this event and need accommodations\, please notify the organizers by February 22\, 2024\, so that proper arrangements can be made. The organizers can be contacted at cliff.complit@umich.edu.\n\nOur conference is entirely organized by graduate students in the University of Michigan's Department of Comparative Literature. This year's organizing members are Arianna Afsari\, CC Barrick\, Delsa Lopez\, and Sanjana Ramanathan.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Orson Welles as Family Man: Son\, Husband\, Father
DESCRIPTION:This exhibit provides a unique glimpse into the actor/director Orson Welles’ private life. 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).

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:CAS Workshop. Language Revitalization and Resurgence: The Case of Modern Armenian
DESCRIPTION:13th Annual International Graduate Student Workshop in Armenian Studies\nLanguage Revitalization and Resurgence: The Case of Modern Armenian\nMarch 8-9\, 2024\nWeiser Hall 1010 / Zoom: 917 6925 4957\n\nOver the years\, the Center for Armenian Studies has fostered dialogue with graduate students around the globe through our annual graduate student workshops. Together with our faculty\, graduate students\, and visiting and post-doctoral fellows we have pushed scholarship in Armenian Studies in new directions through our collective efforts. \n\nThe Thirteenth Annual International Graduate Student Workshop will focus on various issues related to the modern Armenian language. Since the collapse of the Soviet Union and the establishment of Armenian independence\, de-Russification processes have allowed Eastern Armenian to gain an increasing presence in a variety of public institutions in the Republic of Armenia. At the same time\, the future of the many regional dialects of Armenia and Artsakh (Nagorno-Karabakh) remains uncertain\, in light of both the globalizing modern media environment and the region’s political precarity. In the diaspora\, Western Armenian has been in crisis mode\, even being declared an endangered language by UNESCO. Yet this crisis has also coincided with\, or even itself engendered\, somewhat of a resurgence\, as diaspora communities continue to search for innovative ways to make Western Armenian an everyday part of individuals’ lives. In both the Republic of Armenia and the diaspora\, different varieties of Armenian are constantly coming into contact with one another as well as with foreign languages such as English\, Russian\, and French. What effects have these circumstances had on Armenian and its speakers\, and what will be the future trajectory of the language? How has the linguistic landscape of the Republic of Armenian been affected by recent and ongoing sociopolitical upheavals? What are some of the novel methodologies being used to promote the maintenance and flourishing of Western Armenian\, and to what extent have these been successful? How are teachers of Armenian - both Eastern and Western - responding to this new transcultural moment that the language finds itself in? These are only some of the questions we hope to inform our discussion.\n\n\n*Friday\, March 8\, 2024*\n\n9:45 AM - 10:00 AM | Opening Remarks \nArakel Minassian (University of Michigan) Emma Portugal (University of Michigan) Gottfried Hagen (University of Michigan)\n\n10:00 AM - 12:00 PM | Panel I: Roots of Modern Armenian Literary Languages\nModerator: Jennifer Manoukian (University of California\, Irvine)\n\nEmma Avagyan (University of Michigan)\n Printed Perspectives: The Role of Periodicals in Armenian Language Evolution\n\nAram Ghoogasian (Princeton University)\nNew Tongues: The Armenian Language Question\, 1840s–1860s\n\nRoza Armen Melkumyan (National Academy of Sciences of the Republic of Armenia)\nLiterary-cultural significance of Van dialect in Gurgen Mahari's \"Burning Orchards\"\n\n12:00 PM - 1:00 PM | Lunch for Workshop Participants\n\n1:00 PM - 2:30 PM | Panel II: Eastern Armenian Dialects Today\nModerator: Michael Pifer (University of Michigan)\n\nHripsime Hrayr Khachatryan (Pázmány Péter Catholic University\, Budapest)\nThe Roots of Hadrut: Preserving the Hadrut Regional Dialect as a Critical Component of Armenian Identity\n\nEmma Portugal (University of Michigan)\nExamining the Maintenance of Dialect Features in Colloquial Urban ArmenianSpeech via Variationist Analysis of Vowels in Gavar\, Armenia\n\n2:30 PM - 2:45 PM | Break\n\n2:45 PM - 4:15 PM | Panel III: Contemporary Armenian Language Teaching and Research\nModerator: Talar Chahinian (University of California\, Irvine)\n\nAlexia Hatun (University of California\, Los Angeles)\nThe “Creative Literacy” Approach to Armenian Language Instruction: A Theoretical Analysis)\n\nAlexia Hatun (University of California\, Los Angeles) & Annika Topelian (University of Hawaiʻi at Mānoa)\nA Meta-Analysis of Contemporary Research in Armenian Linguistics: Presenting a New Research Initiative\n\n4:15 PM - 4:30 PM | Break\n\n4:30 PM - 6:00 PM | Keynote Lecture I\nShushan Karapetian (University of Southern California)\nFrom 'Linguistic Compartmentalization' to 'Language and Masculinity': The Evolution of an Idea\n\n*Saturday\, March 9. 2024*\n\n10:00 AM - 12:00 PM | Panel IV: Western Armenian: Past\, Present\, Future\nModerator: Ben Fortson (University of Michigan)\n\nAnnika Topelian (University of Hawaiʻi at Mānoa)\nWord Order Properties of Declaratives and Wh-Questions in Adult (Heritage) Western Armenian\n\nArthur Ipek (City University of New York)\nThe Task of the Lexicographer: A Multidisciplinary Approach to Comparative Lexicography and the Case of Western Armenian\n\nGeorge Balabanian (University of Pennsylvania)\nThe Development and Spread of Western Armenian Dialects\n\n12:00 PM - 1:30 PM | Lunch\n\n1:30 PM - 3:30 PM | Panel V: Armenian(s) in the Diaspora\nModerator: Shushan Karapetian (University of Southern California)\n\nJulianne Kapner (University of California\, Berkeley)\nIntroducing the Armenian Language in the Bay Area Project\n\nInessa Arustamyan (Pázmány Péter Catholic University\, Budapest)\nOne Language\, Many Voices: Interactions between Eastern and Western Armenian in Budapest\n\nSetrag Hovsepian (Arizona State University)\nAn Armenian School in Damascus - A Study of Visual Anthropology and Language Maintenance\n\n3:30 PM - 4:00 PM | Break\n\n4:00 PM - 5: 30 PM | Keynote Lecture II\nTalar Chahinian (University of California\, Irvine)\nKeeping Up With the Armenians: Contact Zones and Language Mobility in the Armenian World Today\n\nRegister here: https://umich.zoom.us/j/91769254957\n\nCosponsors:  Department of Comparative Literature and Department of Linguistics\, Office of Research\, College of Literature\, Science\, and the Arts\n\nIf there is anything we can do to make this event accessible to you\, please contact armenianstudies@umich.edu.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Products from Pollution: Carbon Capture and Conversion
DESCRIPTION:Phasing out fossil fuels is a primary means to fight climate change\, but it alone is not enough. Even if all emissions ceased tomorrow\, atmospheric CO2 levels are already dangerously high and the climate would keep warming before it eventually stabilizes. We have to reduce or “capture” legacy CO2 to avert disaster. As the International Panel on Climate Change stated\, the *only* way we can meet our climate goal is to use carbon capture in our climate change fighting tool kit. \n\nMany of the products that we use every day are made with carbon. Treating legacy CO2 as a resource with economic value rather than a pollutant allows us to generate revenue while also fighting climate change. \n\nHowever\, not all uses or types of captured CO2 are equal in terms of environmental or economic benefits. This exhibit includes a video game that helps explain the pros and cons associated with different methods and applications of carbon capture. \n\nAdditionally\, it also provides examples of two types of carbon removal\, an interactive block activity\, and sample products made from captured CO2.

SUMMARY:Presentation:Saturday Morning Physics | The Many Facets of Glass
DESCRIPTION:Join us in person or via live stream: https://youtu.be/mvjBPBJQVss\n\nGlass has been used for many applications\, ranging from arrow heads to optical fibers\, and as much as humans have shaped glass to serve these purposes\, glass has shaped humanity. However\, there remains so much mystery about the amorphous state of matter. Glass is not considered a stable form of matter and yet\, it is durable and lasts for millennia.\n\nThis presentation provides an overview of what makes glass so unique as a material\, the historical role it has played in advancing culture and technology based on its physical properties\, and the knowledge we have to date as to what causes glass formation.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:A Gathering
DESCRIPTION:Welcome. Make Yourself At Home.\n \nA Gathering brings together the newest works of art to enter UMMA’s collection — many on display here for the first time. \n \nAs a free\, public museum\, UMMA staff takes care of art for the benefit of the community and society at large. The works on view in this exhibition\, all brought into the Museum between 2019 and the present\, shows how institutions like UMMA are becoming more permeable to societal challenges\, and more nimble in responding to them in service to all in their communities. In this exhibition you will find works that reflect on how global migrations\, race\, gender\, and ecological change shape the way we engage with the world and inform our visions for the future.\n \nThis collection of artistic engagements with issues give us tools to envision who we want to be as individuals\, as a museum\, and as a society\, connected to one another across space and experience.\n \nSo gather here to take in these latest works of art brought here for you. Gather here to be engulfed in their forms and meanings\, to discuss their takes\, to learn\, to disagree. Gather to relax\, make a friend\, drink a coffee\, finish the daily Wordle. 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

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. For more information on the Cheboiganing (Burt Lake) Band of Ottawa and Chippewa Indians visit BurtLakeBand.org. \n\nLead support for Future Cache is provided by Lizzie and Jonathan Tisch\, Erica Gervais Pappendick and Ted Pappendick\, and the U-M Office of the Provost.\n

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Angkor Complex: ​Cultural Heritage and Post-Genocide Memory in Cambodia.
DESCRIPTION:Care in Uncertain Times\n \nAs crises of public health\, economic instability\, authoritarian regimes\, racial injustice\, and climate change spread around the globe\, millions are experiencing distress\, conflict\, uncertainty\, and vulnerability. This troubling combination of experiences is nothing new for Cambodians. Between 1975-1979\, when the Khmer Rouge ruled Cambodia\, about a quarter of the country’s populations died of infectious diseases\, weapon wounds\, and malnutrition.\n \nThis exhibition brings together more than 80 works of art spanning a millennium to present how the visual culture of Cambodia and its diaspora has evolved in the face of cultural upheaval. Showcasing works from worldwide collections\, including those from some of the foremost members of the Cambodian contemporary art scene\, Angkor Complex allows viewers to encounter the still-fresh scars of a genocide and critically appreciate the strategies evolved to nurture resilience in trying times.\n\nLead support for this exhibition is provided by the U-M Office of the Provost\, U-M Office of the President\, National Endowment for the Arts\, Michigan Arts and Culture Council\, Eleanor Noyes Crumpacker Endowment Fund\, and U-M Ross School of Business.\n

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Curriculum / Collection
DESCRIPTION:In Curriculum / Collection\, an incredible variety of University of Michigan courses take material form. 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. Who knows\, maybe you’ll learn something surprising along the way\, too.\n\nLead support for this exhibition is provided by the University of Michigan Office of the Provost\, Erica Gervais Pappendick and Ted Pappendick\, and the Eleanor Noyes Crumpacker Endowment Fund\, and the Oakriver Foundation.\n

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Unsettling Histories: Legacies of Slavery and Colonialism
DESCRIPTION:Organized as a response to the Museum’s recent acquisition of Titus Kaphar’s Flay (James Madison)\, this upcoming reinstallation of one of our most prominent gallery spaces forces us to grapple with our collection of European and American art\, 1650-1850.\n \nIn recent times\, growing public awareness of the continued reverberations of the legacy of slavery and colonization has challenged museums to examine the uncomfortable histories contained in our collections\, and challenged the public to probe the choices we make about those stories. Choices about which artists you see in our galleries\, choices about what relevant facts we share about the works\, and choices about what - out of an infinite number of options - we don’t say about them.\n \nPieces in this exhibition were made at a time when the world came to be shaped by the ideologies of colonial expansion and Western domination. And yet\, that history and the stories of those marginalized do not readily appear in the still lives and portraits on display here. By grappling with what is visible and what remains hidden\, we are forced to examine whose stories and histories are prioritized and why.  \n \nIn this online exhibition\, you can explore our efforts to deeply question the Museum’s collection and our own past complicity in favoring colonial voices. In the Museum gallery\, which will open in early 2021\, you’ll be able to experience the changes we’re making to the physical space to highlight a more honest version of European and American history. \n \nBy challenging our own practice\, and continuing to add to what we know and what we write about the works we display\, UMMA tells a more complex and more complete story of this nation - one that unsettles\, and fails to settle for\, simple narratives. \n \n“Invisible things are not necessarily ‘not there’.... Certain absences are so stressed\, so ornate\, so planned\, they call attention to themselves\; arrest us with intentionality and purpose\, like neighborhoods that are defined by the population held away from them.” \n \n— Toni Morrison\n\nLead support for Unsettling Histories: Legacies of Slavery and Colonialism is provided by the University of Michigan Office of the Provost\, the U-M Arts Initiative\, and the Susan and Richard Gutow Endowed Fund.\n

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Soulscape
DESCRIPTION:In Soulscape\, DSU’s solo photography exhibition\, the art of portrait photography is reimagined as a journey into the soul\, where each image serves as a window into the intricate landscapes of human essence. This collection emerges from a profound exploration conducted over a year and a half in an unfamiliar land\, where encounters with diverse individuals have woven a rich mosaic of perspectives and stories.\n\nThrough the lens\, DSU captures not merely faces but the myriad souls behind them\, crafting a visual landscape that mirrors the complexity and beauty of the human condition. Each photograph in “Soulscape” is an invitation to gaze deeply into the authentic spirit of its subjects\, offering a rare glimpse into the unguarded moments that define our shared humanity.

SUMMARY:Film Screening:Korean Cinema NOW | Free Chol Soo Lee | 프리 철수 리
DESCRIPTION:View trailer at http://youtu.be/pqVbIHsOOmc?si=2MJ5QadxVYmysX-K\n\nFREE CHOL SOO LEE tells the story of a Korean American death row inmate convicted of a 1973 Chinatown gangland murder in San Francisco\, and the activists who led a pan-Asian American movement to free him. Spanning the late 1970s to the early ’80s\, this movement would for the first time bring together young\, third-generation Asian American activists\, many of them politically radical\, with older\, conservative Korean immigrants. Their unlikely victory\, with Lee walking into freedom in 1983 after 10 years in prison\, would inspire many young supporters to pursue careers dedicated to social justice. The film will explore the complex legacy of this landmark yet largely forgotten Asian American social movement\, and how Lee and his supporters would intimately shape each other’s lives\, during his imprisonment and long after his release.\n   \n   Directed by Julie Ha and Eugene Yi.\n   \n   Presented in English and Korean with English subtitles\n\nKorean Cinema NOW 2024 - Diaspora Edition series features critical picks of recent diaspora film hits. Screened at the Michigan Theater\, all films are free and open to the public.\n\nDetails at the Michigan Theater website: https://michtheater.org/korean-cinema-now

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Propositions to Progress: A Working Atlas of the Global South
DESCRIPTION:Historically\, maps have served as a panoptic technology\, assisting imperial powers in governance\, discipline\, and control. In this exhibit\, internationally renowned Filipino artist Cian Dayrit acts as a counter-cartographer\, reclaiming mapmaking as an emancipatory activity.\n\nDayrit’s artworks\, embroidered on textiles or painted over collages of colonial-era maps\, plot the extraction of natural resources\, land grabbing\, and dispossession and displacement in his native Philippines. At the same time\, their resistant lines summon new imaginaries out of the overlaps between places and memories.\n\nDayrit’s practice is critically and practically informed by the narratives of Filipino communities. Items exhibited alongside his artwork are the result of map-drawing workshops the artist has convened with rural\, urban\, and indigenous communities across the Philippines. Propositions to Progress invites you to engage in the collaborative endeavor to activate alternative territories from the ground up.\n\nCian Dayrit is an interdisciplinary artist exploring colonialism and ethnography\, archaeology\, history\, and mythology. Dayrit subverts the language of the state\, museum\, and military to visualize the contradictions on which these institutions are built. He studied at the University of the Philippines.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Souq Stories: Gaza Lives
DESCRIPTION:This exhibit is an extension of Souq Stories (https://souqstories.insaniyyat.org/)\, which was displayed in 2021 in all seven of the historic markets it depicts in Gaza\, Nazareth\, Acre\, Nablus\, Jerusalem\, Khalil\, and Jaffa. Its youth group organizers aimed to bolster Palestinian unity across the systemic barriers — colonial divides\, military checkpoints\, walls\, etc. — that fragment the lives of people living in Palestine. \n\nSouq Stories: Gaza Lives brings us to present-day Gaza\, sharing the stories of\, and images captured by\, young journalists and photographers who have continued to document the realities of life in Palestine. It also honors one among them\, Fouad Abu Khammash\, who was killed in January 2024 in an Israeli bomb attack on Gaza.\n\n< The exhibit includes images of people suffering the aftermath of the ongoing violence. >\n\nThis exhibit was curated by Souq Stories team members Shareef Sarhan and Waed Abbas in partnership with U-M students Amir Marshi\, Zainab Hakim\, Mariam Odeh\, and Vivian M. Nguyen. It’s offered in conjunction with this year’s Palestine Awareness Week\, an annual series of educational events related to Palestinian history\, culture\, and politics. Presented in association with Insaniyyat: Society of Palestinian Anthropologists.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Orson Welles as Family Man: Son\, Husband\, Father
DESCRIPTION:This exhibit provides a unique glimpse into the actor/director Orson Welles’ private life. 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).

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Products from Pollution: Carbon Capture and Conversion
DESCRIPTION:Phasing out fossil fuels is a primary means to fight climate change\, but it alone is not enough. Even if all emissions ceased tomorrow\, atmospheric CO2 levels are already dangerously high and the climate would keep warming before it eventually stabilizes. We have to reduce or “capture” legacy CO2 to avert disaster. As the International Panel on Climate Change stated\, the *only* way we can meet our climate goal is to use carbon capture in our climate change fighting tool kit. \n\nMany of the products that we use every day are made with carbon. Treating legacy CO2 as a resource with economic value rather than a pollutant allows us to generate revenue while also fighting climate change. \n\nHowever\, not all uses or types of captured CO2 are equal in terms of environmental or economic benefits. This exhibit includes a video game that helps explain the pros and cons associated with different methods and applications of carbon capture. \n\nAdditionally\, it also provides examples of two types of carbon removal\, an interactive block activity\, and sample products made from captured CO2.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:A Gathering
DESCRIPTION:Welcome. Make Yourself At Home.\n \nA Gathering brings together the newest works of art to enter UMMA’s collection — many on display here for the first time. \n \nAs a free\, public museum\, UMMA staff takes care of art for the benefit of the community and society at large. The works on view in this exhibition\, all brought into the Museum between 2019 and the present\, shows how institutions like UMMA are becoming more permeable to societal challenges\, and more nimble in responding to them in service to all in their communities. In this exhibition you will find works that reflect on how global migrations\, race\, gender\, and ecological change shape the way we engage with the world and inform our visions for the future.\n \nThis collection of artistic engagements with issues give us tools to envision who we want to be as individuals\, as a museum\, and as a society\, connected to one another across space and experience.\n \nSo gather here to take in these latest works of art brought here for you. Gather here to be engulfed in their forms and meanings\, to discuss their takes\, to learn\, to disagree. Gather to relax\, make a friend\, drink a coffee\, finish the daily Wordle. 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

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. For more information on the Cheboiganing (Burt Lake) Band of Ottawa and Chippewa Indians visit BurtLakeBand.org. \n\nLead support for Future Cache is provided by Lizzie and Jonathan Tisch\, Erica Gervais Pappendick and Ted Pappendick\, and the U-M Office of the Provost.\n

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Angkor Complex: ​Cultural Heritage and Post-Genocide Memory in Cambodia.
DESCRIPTION:Care in Uncertain Times\n \nAs crises of public health\, economic instability\, authoritarian regimes\, racial injustice\, and climate change spread around the globe\, millions are experiencing distress\, conflict\, uncertainty\, and vulnerability. This troubling combination of experiences is nothing new for Cambodians. Between 1975-1979\, when the Khmer Rouge ruled Cambodia\, about a quarter of the country’s populations died of infectious diseases\, weapon wounds\, and malnutrition.\n \nThis exhibition brings together more than 80 works of art spanning a millennium to present how the visual culture of Cambodia and its diaspora has evolved in the face of cultural upheaval. Showcasing works from worldwide collections\, including those from some of the foremost members of the Cambodian contemporary art scene\, Angkor Complex allows viewers to encounter the still-fresh scars of a genocide and critically appreciate the strategies evolved to nurture resilience in trying times.\n\nLead support for this exhibition is provided by the U-M Office of the Provost\, U-M Office of the President\, National Endowment for the Arts\, Michigan Arts and Culture Council\, Eleanor Noyes Crumpacker Endowment Fund\, and U-M Ross School of Business.\n

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Curriculum / Collection
DESCRIPTION:In Curriculum / Collection\, an incredible variety of University of Michigan courses take material form. 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. Who knows\, maybe you’ll learn something surprising along the way\, too.\n\nLead support for this exhibition is provided by the University of Michigan Office of the Provost\, Erica Gervais Pappendick and Ted Pappendick\, and the Eleanor Noyes Crumpacker Endowment Fund\, and the Oakriver Foundation.\n

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Unsettling Histories: Legacies of Slavery and Colonialism
DESCRIPTION:Organized as a response to the Museum’s recent acquisition of Titus Kaphar’s Flay (James Madison)\, this upcoming reinstallation of one of our most prominent gallery spaces forces us to grapple with our collection of European and American art\, 1650-1850.\n \nIn recent times\, growing public awareness of the continued reverberations of the legacy of slavery and colonization has challenged museums to examine the uncomfortable histories contained in our collections\, and challenged the public to probe the choices we make about those stories. Choices about which artists you see in our galleries\, choices about what relevant facts we share about the works\, and choices about what - out of an infinite number of options - we don’t say about them.\n \nPieces in this exhibition were made at a time when the world came to be shaped by the ideologies of colonial expansion and Western domination. And yet\, that history and the stories of those marginalized do not readily appear in the still lives and portraits on display here. By grappling with what is visible and what remains hidden\, we are forced to examine whose stories and histories are prioritized and why.  \n \nIn this online exhibition\, you can explore our efforts to deeply question the Museum’s collection and our own past complicity in favoring colonial voices. In the Museum gallery\, which will open in early 2021\, you’ll be able to experience the changes we’re making to the physical space to highlight a more honest version of European and American history. \n \nBy challenging our own practice\, and continuing to add to what we know and what we write about the works we display\, UMMA tells a more complex and more complete story of this nation - one that unsettles\, and fails to settle for\, simple narratives. \n \n“Invisible things are not necessarily ‘not there’.... Certain absences are so stressed\, so ornate\, so planned\, they call attention to themselves\; arrest us with intentionality and purpose\, like neighborhoods that are defined by the population held away from them.” \n \n— Toni Morrison\n\nLead support for Unsettling Histories: Legacies of Slavery and Colonialism is provided by the University of Michigan Office of the Provost\, the U-M Arts Initiative\, and the Susan and Richard Gutow Endowed Fund.\n

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Soulscape
DESCRIPTION:In Soulscape\, DSU’s solo photography exhibition\, the art of portrait photography is reimagined as a journey into the soul\, where each image serves as a window into the intricate landscapes of human essence. This collection emerges from a profound exploration conducted over a year and a half in an unfamiliar land\, where encounters with diverse individuals have woven a rich mosaic of perspectives and stories.\n\nThrough the lens\, DSU captures not merely faces but the myriad souls behind them\, crafting a visual landscape that mirrors the complexity and beauty of the human condition. Each photograph in “Soulscape” is an invitation to gaze deeply into the authentic spirit of its subjects\, offering a rare glimpse into the unguarded moments that define our shared humanity.

SUMMARY:Performance:Isidore String Quartet
DESCRIPTION:The sweeping coherence and blazing virtuosity of their narrative had the audience leaping to their feet.” (Violinist.com)\n\nThe New York City-based Isidore String Quartet was formed in 2019 with a vision to revisit\, rediscover\, and reinvigorate the repertory. The quartet is heavily influenced by the Juilliard String Quartet — in fact\, it takes its name from JSQ founder Isidore Cohen — and the idea of “approaching the established as if it were brand new\, and the new as if it were firmly established.” In this program\, they move seamlessly from the great musical innovator of the 18th century to a trailblazer of the 21st: Billy Childs\, whose String Quartet No. 2 (“Awakening”) was composed in the wake of his wife’s emergency hospitalization 10 years ago due to a pulmonary embolism. It takes the listener through the shock and chaos of the emergency room\, the disembodied sonic experience of machines during an extended hospitalization\, and subsequent recovery and healing.\n\nPROGRAM\nFranz Joseph Haydn String Quartet in C Major\, Op. 20\, No. 2\nBilly Childs String Quartet No. 2 (“Awakening”)\nLudwig van Beethoven String Quartet No. 15 in a minor\, Op. 132

SUMMARY:Performance:Charlie Parr
DESCRIPTION:Folk troubadour and bluesman poet\n\nIn the music of Charlie Parr\, there is a sincere conviction and earnest drive to create. The bluesman poet pulls closely from the sights and sounds around him\, his lyrical craftsmanship built by his influences. The sounds from his working-class upbringing—including Folkways legends such as Lead Belly and Woody Guthrie—imbue Parr’s music with stylistic echoes of blues and folk icons of decades past. When Parr sings and plays his resonator or 12-string\, you can hear influences like Mance Lipscomb\, Charley Patton\, Spider John Koerner\, Rev. Gary Davis\, and Dock Boggs. This is especially true in his playing\, when\, after a diagnosis of focal dystonia\, Parr turned to greats like Davis\, Doc Watson\, and Booker White for two-finger picking inspiration. \nParr’s first album with Smithsonian Folkways\,” Last of Better Days Ahead” (2021)\, foregrounded his lyrical craftsmanship and sophisticated bluesman confidence\, with spare production highlighting Parr’s mastery of guitar and elevating his poetry. In his 2024 release\, “Little Sun\,” Parr weaves together stories celebrating music\, community\, and communing with nature. Putting forth an ambitious and raw album that exemplifies the best of Parr's sound: a blend of the blues and folk traditions he continues to carry with him and the steadfast originality of a poet.\n\nPlease visit https://mutotix.umich.edu/4592/4593 for more detail.

SUMMARY:Conference / Symposium:Latinx Research Week 2024
DESCRIPTION:Puentes is excited about its upcoming Latinx Research Week (LRW). Latinx Research Week is an interdisciplinary\, conference-style series of events that we host annually on campus to uplift research being conducted by Latinx staff\, faculty\, and students\, as well as research relevant to Latinx populations. This year Latinx Research Week will be held on March 11th - 14th in the Michigan Union. In 2023\, we were thrilled to host 16 research sessions\, allocate space for over 70 presenters\, and welcome over 300 attendees across our events. We hope to see an even greater turn out this year. \n\nhe theme for Latinx Research Week 2024 is Illuminating Familismo. Familismo is a psychological construct as well as a protective Latinx cultural value that emphasizes the importance of family support\, loyalty\, and honor. Through our interdisciplinary program\, we hope attendees will reflect on\, interrogate\, and reimagine how the academy can be transformed to acknowledge\, welcome\, and illuminate both our biological and chosen familial relationships. In past years\, we have seen spouses\, partners\, siblings\, parents\, children\, and members of the larger Latinx community attend Latinx Research Week in support of their presenting family members\, thus reimagining what an academic conference could and should look like. Additionally\, we have seen other families in attendance: families of co-workers\, cohort-mates\, best friends\, and lab families to name a few. We recognize that many members of the Puentes familia may be far from home but have still chosen to plant roots here and create meaningful communities of chosen family members at UM. We hope that our curated program will illuminate the importance of familismo and encourage attendees to imagine how we can transform academic spaces into more inclusive spaces that honor our families\, chosen or otherwise\, and the ways they have supported our academic journeys. Latinx Research Week 2024: Illuminating Familiso highlights the many ways our families motivate\, inspire\, encourage\, humanize\, and uplift us as we conduct groundbreaking work in our respective fields.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:CCPS Exhibition. 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. Contact copernicus@umich.edu to schedule a viewing.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:CES Exhibition. Camera as Passport: The Ship of Photographers
DESCRIPTION:Starting in 1933 when Hitler and the Nazis came to power\, a cadre of European Jews—German\, Polish\, Hungarian\, Austrian\, French—discovered that a camera could be their passport\, first out of Germany and then out of Europe. Some of these women and men had been planning one type of career—lawyer\, journalist\, painter\, musician—but then realized that they needed to find another way to earn a living. Taking photographs presented a sufficiently malleable opportunity that not only allowed them to leave Germany and then Europe but also to have a means to sustain themselves in foreign countries where they did not necessarily speak the language.\n   \n   They did\, however\, mobilize the visual language of photography. For a number of these figures\, forced migration became an asset during the golden age of photojournalism wherein their portable services were employed to supply picture stories on the move and around the world. Many of these Jews became influential photographers\, shaping how their contemporaries saw the world. Looking back on their work\, we can see how they have influenced our understanding of the modern world even as we can recognize their photographs as a significant component of modern Jewish visual culture.\n   \n   Of the dozens of photographers who fled Europe\, eight escaped on a single ship. The S. S. Winnipeg sailed from Marseille\, France on May 7\, 1941. Germany had already conquered both eastern and western Europe and was poised to invade the Soviet Union. The United States was not yet in the war. Among the 750 refugees aboard were photographers from Hungary\, Belgium\, France\, and Germany: Ilse Bing\, Josef Breitenbach\, Boris Lipnitsky\, Charles Leirens\, Yolla Niclas\, Fred Stein\, Monie Tannen\, and Ylla (Camilla Henriette Koffler). During lifeboat drills\, they discovered each other. Some of them narrowly escaped Vichy France under the auspices of the American journalist Varian Fry and the New York-based Emergency Rescue Committee that helped so many Jewish and anti-Fascist artists get out of Europe in the nick of time.\n   \n   This exhibit introduces the University of Michigan to this intrepid group as exemplary case studies of the wide range of European photographers who used their cameras as passports to other worlds. It focuses first on their European experiences pre-emigration before turning to their escape from Europe on the S. S. Winnipeg (with three of them taking photos on board the ship). The exhibit concludes with examples of some of their initial photographic reactions to the new world\, seeing it through European eyes.\n   \nIf there is anything we can do to make this event accessible to you\, please contact us. Please be aware that advance notice is necessary as some accommodations may require more time for the university to arrange.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Propositions to Progress: A Working Atlas of the Global South
DESCRIPTION:Historically\, maps have served as a panoptic technology\, assisting imperial powers in governance\, discipline\, and control. In this exhibit\, internationally renowned Filipino artist Cian Dayrit acts as a counter-cartographer\, reclaiming mapmaking as an emancipatory activity.\n\nDayrit’s artworks\, embroidered on textiles or painted over collages of colonial-era maps\, plot the extraction of natural resources\, land grabbing\, and dispossession and displacement in his native Philippines. At the same time\, their resistant lines summon new imaginaries out of the overlaps between places and memories.\n\nDayrit’s practice is critically and practically informed by the narratives of Filipino communities. Items exhibited alongside his artwork are the result of map-drawing workshops the artist has convened with rural\, urban\, and indigenous communities across the Philippines. Propositions to Progress invites you to engage in the collaborative endeavor to activate alternative territories from the ground up.\n\nCian Dayrit is an interdisciplinary artist exploring colonialism and ethnography\, archaeology\, history\, and mythology. Dayrit subverts the language of the state\, museum\, and military to visualize the contradictions on which these institutions are built. He studied at the University of the Philippines.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Souq Stories: Gaza Lives
DESCRIPTION:This exhibit is an extension of Souq Stories (https://souqstories.insaniyyat.org/)\, which was displayed in 2021 in all seven of the historic markets it depicts in Gaza\, Nazareth\, Acre\, Nablus\, Jerusalem\, Khalil\, and Jaffa. Its youth group organizers aimed to bolster Palestinian unity across the systemic barriers — colonial divides\, military checkpoints\, walls\, etc. — that fragment the lives of people living in Palestine. \n\nSouq Stories: Gaza Lives brings us to present-day Gaza\, sharing the stories of\, and images captured by\, young journalists and photographers who have continued to document the realities of life in Palestine. It also honors one among them\, Fouad Abu Khammash\, who was killed in January 2024 in an Israeli bomb attack on Gaza.\n\n< The exhibit includes images of people suffering the aftermath of the ongoing violence. >\n\nThis exhibit was curated by Souq Stories team members Shareef Sarhan and Waed Abbas in partnership with U-M students Amir Marshi\, Zainab Hakim\, Mariam Odeh\, and Vivian M. Nguyen. It’s offered in conjunction with this year’s Palestine Awareness Week\, an annual series of educational events related to Palestinian history\, culture\, and politics. Presented in association with Insaniyyat: Society of Palestinian Anthropologists.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Exile and the Mentor-student Relationship: A Force for Resistance and Decolonization
DESCRIPTION:This small exhibit features work in reproduction by Iraqi artists Hanaa Malallah and Mohammed Karim\, as well as an original painting by Karim. Both Malallah and Karim were significantly influenced by their mentors during and after their training in Iraq\, and continue to share their work and ideas with a new generation today.\n\nIn the United States\, Iraq is typically spoken about in a passive position: colonized\, under despotic rule\, occupied. Post-occupied. Through connections between mentors and students\, and students who became mentors to new students\, Iraqi artists have been a force for anti-colonialism\, claiming their heritage and its future for themselves.\n\nView the exhibit Monday-Friday in the Fine Arts Library\, Tappan Hall\, 855 S. University Ave.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:My Gender States
DESCRIPTION:On display at Lane Hall\, Rogério M. 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.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Orson Welles as Family Man: Son\, Husband\, Father
DESCRIPTION:This exhibit provides a unique glimpse into the actor/director Orson Welles’ private life. 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).

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Peter Dunn Exhibition
DESCRIPTION:Peter Dunn has historically been an object maker as a designer and sculptor. 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

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Products from Pollution: Carbon Capture and Conversion
DESCRIPTION:Phasing out fossil fuels is a primary means to fight climate change\, but it alone is not enough. Even if all emissions ceased tomorrow\, atmospheric CO2 levels are already dangerously high and the climate would keep warming before it eventually stabilizes. We have to reduce or “capture” legacy CO2 to avert disaster. As the International Panel on Climate Change stated\, the *only* way we can meet our climate goal is to use carbon capture in our climate change fighting tool kit. \n\nMany of the products that we use every day are made with carbon. Treating legacy CO2 as a resource with economic value rather than a pollutant allows us to generate revenue while also fighting climate change. \n\nHowever\, not all uses or types of captured CO2 are equal in terms of environmental or economic benefits. This exhibit includes a video game that helps explain the pros and cons associated with different methods and applications of carbon capture. \n\nAdditionally\, it also provides examples of two types of carbon removal\, an interactive block activity\, and sample products made from captured CO2.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Special Interdisciplinary QC/CM Seminar | Spectral topology\, skin effect and impurity states in non-Hermitian bands
DESCRIPTION:The dynamics of a system having energy sources or drains can sometimes be approximated using a non-Hermitian Hamiltonian. The eigenvalue spectrum of a non-Hermitian lattice also fall into bands\, not along the real axis\, but on the complex plane. \"Spectral topology\" characterizes the shape of the shape of the spectrum on the complex plane\, and is hence unique to non-Hermitian bands. Nontrivial spectral topology leads to physical phenomena such as the skin effect\, the anomalous reflection\, and characteristic features in impurity bound states. In this talk\, I will introduce recent progress on the study of spectral topology in non-Hermitian bands.\n\nReferences\nK. Zhang\, Z. Yang\, and C. Fang\, Phys. Rev. Lett. 125\, 126402 (2020)\nK.

SUMMARY:Auditions:Christine El-Hage & Eric Whitmer\, carillon
DESCRIPTION:Christine El-Hage & Musicology PhD student Eric Whitmer performs on the Charles Baird Carillon\, an instrument of 53 bronze bells located inside the Burton Memorial Tower. The largest bell\, which strikes the hour\, weighs 12 tons\, while the smallest bell\, 4½ octaves above\, weighs just 15 pounds.\n\nThirty-minute recitals are performed on the Charles Baird Carillon at noon every weekday that classes are in session\, followed by visitor Q&A with the carillonist. The bell chamber may be accessed via a combination of elevator and stairs. Take the elevator to the highest floor possible (floor 8)\, and then climb two flights of stairs (39 steps) to the bell chamber (floor 10). Earplugs are available from the carillonist upon request. Be prepared to walk on ice and snow in the bell chamber during winter. Built in 1936\, the Charles Baird Carillon is not ADA accessible. Visitors with mobility concerns are invited to visit the Lurie Carillon: https://smtd.umich.edu/facilities/ann-and-robert-h-lurie-carillon/

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Soulscape
DESCRIPTION:In Soulscape\, DSU’s solo photography exhibition\, the art of portrait photography is reimagined as a journey into the soul\, where each image serves as a window into the intricate landscapes of human essence. This collection emerges from a profound exploration conducted over a year and a half in an unfamiliar land\, where encounters with diverse individuals have woven a rich mosaic of perspectives and stories.\n\nThrough the lens\, DSU captures not merely faces but the myriad souls behind them\, crafting a visual landscape that mirrors the complexity and beauty of the human condition. Each photograph in “Soulscape” is an invitation to gaze deeply into the authentic spirit of its subjects\, offering a rare glimpse into the unguarded moments that define our shared humanity.

SUMMARY:Class / Instruction:NOW Ensemble
DESCRIPTION:Cutting-edge chamber group NOW Ensemble discusses the dynamics of working in today's new-music environment\, from building performer relationships to collaborations and commissions with new composers. Composer Griffin Candey (SMTD DMA\, 2023) joins the discussion prior to the performance of his new piece\, commissioned for NOW\, titled *Everybody Leaves If They Get The Chance*.\n\nFree and open to the public\; presented by the Department of Composition as part of the 2024 William Bolcom Residency.\n\nABOUT NOW ENSEMBLE\n\nErin Lesser\, flute\nYoonah Kim\, clarinet\nMark Dancigers\, electric guitar\nLizzie Burns\, bass\nMichael Mizrahi\, piano\n\nNOW Ensemble is a dynamic group of performers and composers dedicated to making new chamber music for the 21st century. With a unique instrumentation of flute\, clarinet\, electric guitar\, double bass\, and piano\, the ensemble brings a fresh sound and a new perspective to the classical tradition\, infused with the musical influences that reflect the diverse backgrounds of its members. NOW Ensemble has brought some of the most exciting composers of their generation to national and international recognition. \n\nIn recent seasons\, NOW has performed at the Center for the Performing Arts at Penn State\, Lincoln Center\, the Apples and Olives Festival in Zürich\, Switzerland\, Town Hall Seattle\, Da Camera Houston\, and presented by Carnegie Hall. They were the inaugural ensemble-in-residence at San Diego’s Art of Élan. November 2021 saw the release of their seventh album\, *Before and After*\, on New Amsterdam Records. NOW has worked closely with over 100 composers\, including Judd Greenstein\, Mark Dancigers\, Patrick Burke\, Missy Mazzoli\, Gabriela Smith\, Yevgeniy Sharlat\, Sean Friar\, Kathryn Alexander\, San Fermin's Ellis Ludwig-Leone\, Nico Muhly\, Timothy Andres\, and Sarah Kirkland Snider. \n\nHighlights of the last season include touring behind their new album\, *Before and After*\, the world premiere of Judd Greenstein’s opera *A Marvelous Order* at Penn State University\, composed for NOW Ensemble\, and performances in venues throughout New York State\, supported through a grant from the New York State Council on the Arts. \n\nOn this tour through Michigan\, NOW Ensemble’s presents the world premiere of a newly-commissioned piece by composer Griffin Candey. The piece highlights small town nostalgia and the internal battle to love a place while wanting to leave it far behind. Candey explores questions such as How can we love a place and also run from it? How do we live in the in-between? What do we take with us from the places that shaped us?

SUMMARY:Careers / Jobs:International Students Career Series: How to Build Your Network
DESCRIPTION:\"You can’t start networking unless you know where to begin! As an international student\, it can be intimidating when thinking about the idea of having to interact with people in the U.S. That’s totally okay because we got you covered! This workshop will give you the tools to identify and connect with contacts in addition to conducting informational interviews - opportunities that will help you expand your knowledge of what a career or company is like by learning from an employee's daily activities. Remember: Networking is about building relationships. These meetings can occur without the pressure so often present in a typical job interview but many times lead to opportunities down the road.\n\nThis session is an interactive workshop\, so you are expected to prepare by carefully reviewing our networking website to learn the basics: Review Networking Resources:https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8PHpx31Amwc&t=2s\nhttps://careercenter.umich.edu/article/networking-resources\"

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Quantum Research Institute Seminar | Single Erbium Ions as Telecom Quantum Spin-Photon Interfaces
DESCRIPTION:Dr. Lukasz Dusanowski\, Associate Research Scholar at the Department of Electrical and Computer Engineering at Princeton University\, will be delivering a QRI seminar titled \"Single Erbium Ions as Telecom Quantum Spin-Photon Interfaces\" on March 11th\, from 2:00 pm - 3:00 pm in West Hall\, Room 340 (3rd floor). A Zoom option is also provided.\n\n\nSeminar Description:\n\n\nSingle erbium ions in crystalline hosts are attractive candidates for solid-state spin-photon interfaces thanks to long-lived spin states and optical transitions in the telecom band\, promising a clear advantage for long-distance quantum network applications. These ions can be incorporated into a wide range of host materials\, which influence their spin and optical coherence properties through the concentration of other magnetic spins and the erbium site symmetry. Using silicon photonic crystal cavities\, we can isolate single erbium ions and investigate their optical and spin properties using resonance fluorescence and optically detected magnetic resonance. In this talk\, I will show our recent work on erbium ions implanted into CaWO4\, which enabled the observation of the high indistinguishability of subsequently emitted photons in the Hong-Ou-Mandel experiment [1]. This represents a notable step towards the construction of telecom band quantum repeater networks with single erbium ions. I will also discuss our recent progress on generating spin-photon and spin-spin entanglement.\n\n[1] S. Ourari*\, Ł. Dusanowski*\, S.P. Horvath*\, M.T. Uysal*\, C.M. Phenicie\, P. Stevenson\, M.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:RCGD/EHAP Winter Seminar Series: Biological Impacts of Climate Change and Women’s Livelihoods Among Bangladeshi Shodagor Communities
DESCRIPTION:Biological Impacts of Climate Change and Women’s Livelihoods Among Bangladeshi Shodagor Communities\nMonday\, March 11\, 2024 (2 PM – 3:30 PM)\n\nKatie Starkweather\nUniversity of Illinois\n \nHuman mothers face an adaptive problem. The importance of maternal care and women’s economic contributions to the household throughout evolutionary history and in contemporary societies requires mothers to decide how to allocate their time and energy between work and childcare in ways that support their reproductive success. In Bangladesh\, traditionally boat-dwelling\, semi-nomadic Shodagor women engage in two different occupations – trading and fishing – that require different trade-offs between time spent in work and in childcare. In this talk\, I will discuss these differences and address three questions: 1) What are the social and cultural predictors of variation in women’s work? 2) What role does environmental change play in structuring women’s economic decisions? And 3) Do differences in trade-offs explain differences in fitness consequences for mothers? Examining variation in women’s strategies for solving the adaptive problem of motherhood provides a better understanding of a critical element of human evolution\, and also allows scientists to create models to predict how behavior is likely to change in the future in response to ecological changes (e.g.\, climate change\, local disease ecologies) and to predict the impacts of this on human biology.\n\nDr. Katie Starkweather is an Assistant Professor of Biological Anthropology at the University of Illinois\, Chicago. Prior to that\, she held two postdoctoral positions\, one as an NSF SBE Postdoctoral Fellow at the University of New Mexico and another at the Max Planck Institute for Evolutionary Anthropology in Leipzig\, Germany. She received a PhD in Anthropology from the University of Missouri and a Master’s in Anthropology at the University of Nebraska. Dr. Starkweather works in Matlab\, Bangladesh with a group of traditionally boat-dwelling\, semi-nomadic Shodagor traders and fishers on issues related to women’s work\, parental investment\, and household divisions of labor\, environmental change\, and fitness outcomes associated with these socioecological factors\, including reproduction\, growth and nutrition\, and health outcomes. Dr. Starkweather uses a mixed-methods approach to collect multiple types of cross-sectional and longitudinal data in order to answer research questions associated with her interests\, and to address the interests and concerns of the Matlab Shodagor communities.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:Disrupting NextG
DESCRIPTION:The Department of Electrical Engineering and Computer Science\, ECE Division\, is pleased to announce the 21st William Gould Dow Distinguished Lecture.\n\nAs 5G takes to the airwaves\, we now turn our imagination to the next generation of wireless technology. The promise of this technology has created an international race to innovate\, with significant investment by government as well as industry. And much innovation is needed as 6G aspires to not only support significantly higher data rates than 5G\, but also improved reliability along with excellent coverage indoors and out\, including for underserved areas. New architectures including edge computing must be designed to drastically enhance efficient resource allocation while also reducing latency for real-time control. Breakthrough energy-efficiency architectures\, algorithms and hardware will be needed so that wireless devices can be powered by tiny batteries\, energy-harvesting\, or over-the-air power transfer. And machine learning may will play a big role in the underlying technologies for NextG as well as the “killer apps” that will drive its deployment and success. This talk will describe what the wireless future might look like along with some of the innovations and breakthroughs required to realize this vision. \n\nBio\n\nAndrea Goldsmith is the Dean of Engineering and Applied Science and the Arthur LeGrand Doty Professor of Electrical and Computer Engineering at Princeton University.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:HEP-Astro Seminar | The Nuclear Optical Model and Its Optical-Scattering Analog: Mie Scattering
DESCRIPTION:The methods devised by Gustav Mie in 1908 to explain the scattering of electromagnetic waves will be shown to have a close analogy with quantum-mechanical models developed many years later to describe nuclear scattering. In particular\, these models use either a complex index of refraction or a complex nuclear scattering potential to account for attenuation caused by non-elastic scattering. I briefly outline the historical development of these models\, and give examples illustrating the close analogy between them\, their parameters\, and the resulting scattering. In these and related scattering models\, the ratio of the incident wavelength to the object size\, λ/D\, can be determined from the scattering characteristics\, allowing the extraction of microscopic particle dimensions over many orders of magnitude (e.g. nm to fm). This close analogy allows one to simulate accelerator-based nuclear scattering experiments with table-top optical-scattering experiments.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:RTG NT: Families of CM forms
DESCRIPTION:Abstract: Given a Hecke character of a CM field\, the automorphic induction of which to the underlying totally real subfield gives a HIlbert modular form with complex multiplication. By the work of Hida and Tilouine the congruences of such forms are governed by the L-value associated with the Hecke character. On the other hand\, the Jacquet-Langlands lift of these modular forms to a quaternion algebra can be realized a the theta lift of the character to the corresponding unitary group. We will focus on the case when the unitary group is definite and discuss how one can p-integrally normalize the theta lift and the Rallis inner product formula. As a result we obtain a similar statement for the congruences. We will also discuss further arithmetic applications if time permits.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:“Camera as a Passport” Photography Exhibit Opening + Curator Panel
DESCRIPTION:Join us to celebrate this exhibit's grand opening on March 11 at 3:30 pm in Weiser Hall Room 547 on the University of Michigan's Central Campus!\n\nStarting in 1933 when Hitler and the Nazis came to power\, a cadre of European Jews—German\, Polish\, Hungarian\, Austrian\, French—discovered that a camera could be their passport\, first out of Germany and then out of Europe. Some of these women and men had been planning one type of career—lawyer\, journalist\, painter\, musician—but then realized that they needed to find another way to earn a living. Taking photographs presented a sufficiently malleable opportunity that not only allowed them to leave Germany and then Europe but also to have the means to sustain themselves in foreign countries where they did not necessarily speak the language. \n\nThey did\, however\, mobilize the visual language of photography. For a number of these figures\, forced migration became an asset during the golden age of photojournalism wherein their portable services were employed to supply picture stories on the move and around the world. Many of these Jews became influential photographers\, shaping how their contemporaries saw the world. Looking back on their work\, we can see how they have influenced our understanding of the modern world even as we can recognize their photographs as a significant component of modern Jewish visual culture.\n\nOf the dozens of photographers who fled Europe\, eight escaped on a single ship. The S. S. Winnipeg sailed from Marseille\, France on May 7\, 1941. Germany had already conquered both eastern and western Europe and was poised to invade the Soviet Union. The United States was not yet in the war. Among the 750 refugees aboard were photographers from Hungary\, Belgium\, France\, and Germany: Ilse Bing\, Josef Breitenbach\, Boris Lipnitsky\, Charles Leirens\, Yolla Niclas\, Fred Stein\, Monie Tannen\, and Ylla (Camilla Henriette Koffler). During lifeboat drills\, they discovered each other. Some of them narrowly escaped Vichy France under the auspices of the American journalist Varian Fry and the New York-based Emergency Rescue Committee that helped so many Jewish and anti-Fascist artists get out of Europe in the nick of time.\n\nThis exhibit introduces the University of Michigan to this intrepid group as exemplary case studies of the wide range of European photographers who used their cameras as passports to other worlds. It focuses first on their European experiences pre-emigration before turning to their escape from Europe on the S. S. Winnipeg (with three of them taking photos on board the ship). The exhibit concludes with examples of some of their initial photographic reactions to the new world\, seeing it through European eyes. \n\n\"Camera as a Passport\" is open for public viewing from 8 am - 5 pm\, Monday through Friday. The University of Michigan College of Literature\, Science\, and the Arts greatly values inclusion and access for all. We are pleased to provide reasonable accommodations to enable full participation in this event. Please contact js-event-coord@umich.edu to request disability accommodations or with any questions or concerns. Please provide advance notice to ensure sufficient time to meet the requested accommodations.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:Housing Works: Turning Research to Action For Equitable Housing
DESCRIPTION:Housing Works: Turning Research to Action for Equitable Housing\n\nHousing Works brings together cutting-edge research and creative practices that are having a real impact in the development and provision of equitable housing. Addressing our national housing crisis requires profound changes in how we fund and build housing. These changes may involve overhauls of the existing regulatory system\, significant expansion of different funding sources\, and creative adoption of new design and construction methods. This symposium invites academic field-leaders to present their work toward enabling equitable housing across diverse domains and to share their experiences bridging academic institutions and public entities.\n\nSCHEDULE\nPanel: 3:30-5:30\n“Enabling Equitable Housing: Examples from the field”\nDana Cuff\, cityLAB\, UCLA\nMartha Galvez\, Housing Solutions Lab\, NYU Furman Center\nKarla Sierralta\, Hawai’i Housing Lab\, University of Hawai’i at Manoa\n\nBreak: 5:30-6:00\n\nKeynote: 6:00-7:30\n“Housing Research from the Ground Up: Driving Equitable Policy Change in Residential Displacement and Infill”\nKaren Chapple\, Director\, School of Cities\, University of Toronto\n\nThis talk explores how academic researchers\, by working closely with communities and cities\, can design and implement research projects that impact decision-making – while still building academic knowledge. Using the cases of residential displacement and infill projects in California\, Chapple will discuss how the research at the Urban Displacement Project and Center for Community Innovation has driven policy change at the municipal\, regional\, and state level.\n\nGUEST SPEAKERS\nKaren Chapple:\nKaren Chapple is the Director of the School of Cities at the University of Toronto\, where she also serves as Professor in the Department of Geography and Planning. She is Professor Emerita of City & Regional Planning at the University of California\, Berkeley\, where she served as department chair and held the Carmel P. Friesen Chair in Urban Studies. Professor Chapple also leads the Downtown Recovery research project\, which is a collaboration between School of Cities and the Institute of Governmental Studies at UC Berkeley.\n\nChapple studies inequalities in the planning\, development\, and governance of regions in the Americas\, with a focus on economic development and housing. In 2023 Chapple received the Sir Peter Hall Award for Lifetime Contribution to the Field from the Regional Studies Association. Her recent books include Planning Sustainable Cities and Regions: Towards More Equitable Development (Routledge\, 2015)\, which won the John Friedmann Book Award from the American Collegiate Schools of Planning\; Transit-Oriented Displacement or Community Dividends? Understanding the Effects of Smarter Growth on Communities (with Anastasia Loukaitou-Sideris\, MIT Press\, 2019)\; and Fragile Governance and Local Economic Development: Theory and Evidence from Peripheral Regions in Latin America (with Sergio Montero\, Routledge\, 2018). She has published recently on a broad array of subjects\, including the use of big data to predict gentrification (in Environment and Planning B)\, the fiscalization of land use (in Landscape and Urban Planning)\, urban displacement (in the Journal of Planning Literature and Cityscape)\, competition in the electric vehicle industry (in Local Economy)\, job creation on industrial land (in Economic Development Quarterly)\, regional governance in rural Peru (in the Journal of Rural Studies)\, and accessory dwelling units as a smart growth policy (in the Journal of Urbanism). In Fall 2015\, she co-founded the Urban Displacement Project\, a research portal examining patterns of residential\, commercial\, and industrial displacement\, as well as policy and planning solutions. In 2015\, Chapple’s work on climate change and tax policy won the UC-wide competition for the Bacon Public Lectureship\, which promotes evidence-based public policy and creative thinking for the public good. Chapple also received the 2017 UC-Berkeley Chancellor’s Award for Research in the Public Interest.\n\nDana Cuff:\nDana Cuff is Professor of Architecture and Urban Design\, Urban Planning\, and Director of cityLAB at UCLA. Since receiving her Ph.D. in Architecture from Berkeley\, Cuff has published and lectured widely about design and inclusion\, the architectural profession\, and affordable housing. She is a prolific writer\, including books such as The Provisional City about postwar housing in Los Angeles\, a co-authored text called Urban Humanities: New Practices for Reimagining the City\, and most recently\, Architectures of Spatial Justice (2023). Cuff has had greater public impact than most academics through the co-authoring of successful state housing legislation grounded in cityLAB’s research (AB 2299\, 2016\; AB2295\, 2022). For over a decade\, Dr. Cuff has led the Mellon-funded Urban Humanities Initiative at UCLA\, one of the most innovative social justice curricula in the country. The significance of Cuff’s work is reflected in recent prestigious awards: Women in Architecture Activist of the Year (2019)\, Researcher of the Year (2020)\, Educator of the Year (2020)\, Public Impact Research Award (2022)\, and UCLA’s Faculty Research Lecturer (2023).\n\nMartha Galvez:\nMartha Galvez is the Executive Director of the Housing Solutions Lab. Her expertise is in housing and homelessness policy\, with a focus on policies and programs that strengthen housing stability and neighborhood choice for low-income families. She has experience in mixed-methods research\, and has designed and led studies involving complex administrative\, survey\, and qualitative data. Prior to joining the Lab\, she was a Principal Research Associate at the Urban Institute. She has also held policy and research positions in several state and local research organizations\, including the Washington State Department of Social and Health Services’ Research and Data Analysis division\, the West Coast Poverty Center at the University of Washington\, the Seattle Housing Authority\, the New York City Department of Small Business Services\, and the New York City Citizens Housing and Planning Council. Galvez earned an undergraduate degree from Wesleyan University and a master’s degree in Urban Planning and PhD in public policy and administration from the Robert F. Wagner School of Public Service at New York University.\n\nKarla Sierralta:\nKarla Sierralta\, AIA is a Venezuelan-American architect\, educator\, and design advocate. Her hyphenated identity and experiences as a first-generation immigrant and member of the Venezuelan diaspora fuel her explorations on cross-cultural translations\, belonging\, and democracy in design.\n\nShe is an associate professor at the University of Hawai’i at Mānoa School of Architecture\, where she serves as the director of undergraduate studies. She is also a founding team member of the SoA’s UH Community Design Center platform. She co-founded the Hawai’i Housing Lab platform to document\, collect\, and share efforts exploring housing for all. HHL is the online home for the Holistic Housing Design Toolkit\, a collection of tools and resources centered on a hyper-localized approach to creating more walkable\, sustainable\, and equitable communities. She has also taught at the College of Architecture at the Illinois Institute of Technology in Chicago\, where she was curator of the Re-Thinking Metropolis “House” Studio.\n\nHer practice\, Strawn Sierralta has been recognized nationally and internationally\, including honors from AIA\, ACSA\, IIDA\, Graphic Design USA\, Fast Company\, and SEGD. They were finalists for the 9/11 Memorial\, in NYC.\n\n_______________\n\nHousing Works is organized and hosted by the University of Michigan’s Collective for Equitable Housing (CEH). We bring together architecture\, urban design\, and urban planning faculty at Taubman College of Architecture and Urban Planning to promote housing equity within the state of Michigan and beyond. By leveraging faculty expertise\, funding\, and community-based partnerships\, CEH pursues research questions and impact-driven projects that address housing affordability\, enable equitable development\, and promote sustainable building design and practices.\n\nThis event is generously supported by the Raoul Wallenberg Memorial Lecture Fund at Taubman College. The Raoul Wallenberg Lecture was initiated in 1971 by Sol King\, a former classmate of Wallenberg’s. An endowment was established in 1976 for an annual lecture to be offered in Raoul’s honor on the theme of architecture as a humane social art.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:A New Approach to Evaluating the Welfare Effects of Decentralized Policies (with William H. Hoyt and Tidiane Ly)
DESCRIPTION:We establish a framework to quantify the welfare effects of decentralized policies. Local policies result in benefit-spillovers\, mobility of households and firms\, and interjurisdictional fiscal externalities that are not internalized by the government enacting the policy. Their magnitudes are measured by a new metric\, the \"marginal corrective transfer\" (MCT)\, the share of funding the federal government should provide to induce a locality to internalize these interjurisdictional externalities. Formally\, the MCT is estimated as the wedge between the marginal value of public funds (MVPF) of the locality enacting the policy and the MVPF of the entire federation. To calculate this wedge\, we develop a rigorous framework for distinguishing between the benefits and costs that are internal and those that are external to the enacting locality. The MCT enables comparisons of local policies\, allowing the federal government to prioritize policies based on the relative external benefits and costs. Empirically\, we show that property tax cuts\, K-12 education\, and higher education have positive MCT's\, implying federal subsidies should be employed while race-to-the-bottom type policies such as wealth tax cuts and bidding-for-firm programs with negative MCTs should be federally taxed. Depending on the taxing instruments utilized at the state level\, we show if states rank policies to intervene on\, they may diverge substantially from the federal government and from other states.\n\nThis talk is presented by the Public Finance Seminar\, sponsored in part by the Department of Economics with generous gifts given through the Elizalde-Winikates Family Fund in Economics and the Economics Strategic Fund.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:Bachmann Lecture
DESCRIPTION:MONDAY TITLE: Enantioselective Tactics and strategies with Iridium Catalysis\nMONDAY ABSTRACT: The ability to readily access small-molecule building blocks at will has important consequences for the discovery and development of novel medicines and materials. It is particularly beneficial when the chemical methods are convenient while at the same time economically and environmentally tenable and sustainable. A focus of our research program at ETH-Zurich is the identification\, study\, and development of novel reactions and methods for preparation of functionalized structures. We are especially interested in catalytic processes that are easily executed and utilize readily available starting materials. We will discuss several new reaction processes that provide ready access to a host of fundamentally versatile building blocks for synthesis. The presentation will focus in part on the unique reactivity of Ir-complexes with a novel phosphoramidite-olefin ligand. We have found that these can activate allylic alcohols towards a wide range of direct displacement reactions\, giving rise to optically active products.\n\nTUESDAY TITLE: New Strategies and Tactics in Natural Products Synthesis\nTUESDAY ABSTRACT: The presentation will include discussion and analysis of recent natural product targets that have been synthesized in the group. It will focus on target-oriented synthesis as an engine for the generation of novel methods and approaches to bioactive agents. The methods involve novel\, unexpected reactivity and unusual building blocks that are fully integrated to lead to efficient routes. We will focus specifically on recently completed syntheses.

DESCRIPTION:The problem of counting closed geodesics of bounded length\, originally in the setting of negatively curved manifolds\, goes back to the classic work of Margulis in 1960s about the dynamics of the geodesic flow. Since then Margulis' results have been generalized to many other contexts where some whiff of hyperbolicity is present.\nThus a  2011 result of Eskin and Mirzakhani shows that for a closed hyperbolic surface S of genus $g\ge 2$\, the number $N(L)$ of closed Teichmuller geodesics of length $\le L$ in the moduli space of $S$ grows as $e^{hL}/(hL)$ where $h=6g-6$. The number $N(L)$ is also equal to the number of conjugacy classes of pseudo-Anosov elements $\phi$ in the mapping class group $MCG(S)$ with $\log\lambda(\phi)\le L$\, where $\lambda(\phi)>1$ is the ``dilatation\" or ``stretch factor\" of $\phi$. \n\nWe consider an analogous problem in the $Out(F_r)$ setting\, for the action of the outer automorphism group $Out(F_r)$ of the free group $F_r$ of rank $r$ on a ``cousin\" of the Teichmuller space\,  called the Culler-Vogtmann Outer space.  In this context being a ``fully irreducible\" element of $Out(F_r)$ serves as a natural counterpart of being pseudo-Anosov. Every fully irreducible $\phi\in Out(F_r)$ acts on the Outer space as a loxodromic isometry with translation length $\log\lambda(\phi)$\, where again $\lambda(\phi)$ is the stretch factor of $\phi$.  We estimate  the number  $N_r(L)$ of fully irreducible elements $\phi\in Out(F_r)$ with $\log\lambda(\phi)\le L$. The number $N_r(L)$ can also be interpreted as the number of homotopy classes of closed “contracting\" geodesics in the moduli space of the Outer space. We prove\, for $r\ge 3$\, that  $N_r(L)$ grows \emph{doubly exponentially} in $L$ as $L\to\infty$\, in terms of both lower and upper bounds. This result reveals new behavior not present in classic hyperbolic dynamical systems. The talk is based on a joint paper with Catherine Pfaff.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:ISRMT seminar: Long-time Asymptotics of the KdV Steplike Solutions
DESCRIPTION:The long time asymptotics of the steplike solutions of the KdV equation on the constant backgrounds has long been well studied at the physical level of rigor. This talk will present some recent mathematically rigorous results that refine and justify the above-mentioned asymptotics. We  will also compare the efficiency of  the two most common methods --- the Nonlinear Steepest Descent  and the  Inverse Scattering Transform --  for obtaining the soliton asymptotics  over a larger space-time domain and for the most general possible class of  steplike initial data.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:Professors Anne Curzan\, Robin Queen\, and Heather Thompson's Collegiate Professorship Inaugural Lecture
DESCRIPTION:This event will take place both in person and virtually. Additional details regarding each lecture can be found below.\n\nProfessor Anne Curzan\, the Geneva Smitherman Collegiate Professor of English Language and Literature\, Linguistics\, and Education\n\nLecture Title: On Listening and Language Peeves\n\nAbstract: Many of us grew up with a strong sense of “right” and “wrong” in language\, perhaps drilled into us at school or at home. And these rules of correctness\, often naturalized to feel like common sense\, make language one of our most powerful gate-keeping tools\, from schools to workplaces. What happens when we pull back the curtain and ask where these rules come from? Who resists and why? This talk considers the implications for inclusion and justice when we recognize linguistic diversity as part of cultural diversity and language change as part of every living language. \n\nProfessor Robin Queen\, the Sarah G. Thomason Collegiate Professor of Linguistics\n\nLecture Title: On the Performative Power of Taboo Words in Fictional Television and Film\n\nAbstract: Tabooed words present a fascinating source of cross-cultural and cross-linguistic puzzles. For instance\,  taboo words in fictional television and film have become much more common since the turn of the century even as they remain formally regulated through ratings systems\, guidelines from the FCC\, and other similar sources. This talk explores the cultural and linguistic factors that have facilitated an increased use of taboo words in fictional television and film along with the ways in which that increase has coincided with reframing regulation away from preventing offense (or breaking the taboo) and toward the ideological protection of children.\n\nDr. Heather Ann Thompson\, the Frank W. Thompson Collegiate Professor of History and African American Studies\n\nLecture Title: On The Ugly 80s: Rethinking Contemporary Police Violence\, White Vigilantism\, and their Contested Reckonings\n\nAbstract: In the popular imagination the decade of the 1980s was all about Big Hair\, garish neon\, consumerism\, and corporate greed. It was also\, in fact\, the crucible of an unprecedented urban crisis. This lecture will revisit the 1980s and its underappreciated legacies in order to shine new light on today’s civic battles over policing as well as its alarming public support for acts of white vigilantism. It draws from new work Thompson is doing on two important moments in that decade—Bernie Goetz’s notorious shooting of Black youth on NYC subway in 1984\, and the Philadelphia police’s bombing of MOVE in 1985.\n\nIf you are unable to join us in person\, please click the link below to join the webinar:\nhttps://umich.zoom.us/j/99848276472\nOr One tap mobile :\n    +13017158592\,\,99848276472# US (Washington DC)\n    +13052241968\,\,99848276472# US\nOr Telephone:\n    Dial(for higher quality\, dial a number based on your current location):\n    +1 301 715 8592 US (Washington DC)\n    +1 305 224 1968 US\n    +1 309 205 3325 US\n    +1 312 626 6799 US (Chicago)\n    +1 646 876 9923 US (New York)\n    +1 646 931 3860 US\n    +1 253 215 8782 US (Tacoma)\n    +1 346 248 7799 US (Houston)\n    +1 360 209 5623 US\n    +1 386 347 5053 US\n    +1 507 473 4847 US\n    +1 564 217 2000 US\n    +1 669 444 9171 US\n    +1 669 900 6833 US (San Jose)\n    +1 689 278 1000 US\n    +1 719 359 4580 US\n    +1 253 205 0468 US\n    +1 204 272 7920 Canada\n    +1 438 809 7799 Canada\n    +1 587 328 1099 Canada\n    +1 647 374 4685 Canada\n    +1 647 558 0588 Canada\n    +1 778 907 2071 Canada\n    +1 780 666 0144 Canada\nWebinar ID: 998 4827 6472\n    International numbers available: https://umich.zoom.us/u/ad7IRdXaaO

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Special Interdisciplinary QC/CM Seminar | Magnetic “Molecules” in Quantum Materials
DESCRIPTION:Magnetism in crystalline materials is traditionally described based on the magnetic moments carried by magnetic atoms\, with the formation of magnetic structures understood as self-organization arising from pairwise interactions between these moments. In this talk\, I will discuss two examples that transcend this traditional framework\, discovered through neutron scattering experiments. Firstly\, in cobalt oxides with a layered hexagonal honeycomb lattice [1]\, we observed novel magnetic structures known as multi-q order [2]\, characterized by clusters of magnetic moments that are separated from each other by less spinful sites [3]\, in analogy to molecular solids (such as iodine) featuring weak chemical bonds. Theoretical analysis [4] suggests that multi-moment interactions are crucial for the emergence of such magnetic orders. Secondly\, in the near-ferromagnet MnSi\, we find that the fundamental magnetic units are not individual Mn atoms\, but are instead multi-atom electron clouds dubbed magnetic molecular orbitals [5]. We propose that the understanding of our observations can benefit from a reexamination of the single-particle physics with topological band theory. The associated correlated electron problems may represent a new frontier in magnetic quantum materials.\n\nReferences:\n[1] Yao and Li\, PRB 101\, 085120 (2020)\; Li et al.\, PRX 12\, 041024 (2022).\n[2] Chen et al.\, PRB 103\, L180404 (2021)\; Yao et al.\, PR Research 5\, L022045 (2023)\; Gu et al.\, arXiv:2306.07175 (to appear as a Letter in PRB).\n[3] Yao et al.\, PRL 129\, 147202 (2022).\n[4] Krüger et al.\, PRL 131\, 146702 (2023).\n[5] Jin et al.\, Sci.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Student Combinatorics: An introduction to the m=1 amplituhedron
DESCRIPTION:Given a real (k+m) by n matrix Z\, there is an induced map from the TNN (k\,n)-Grassmannian to the (k\,k+m)-Grassmannian. The image of this map is called the amplituhedron A_{n\,k\,m}(Z). We will discuss some properties of this object when m=1. In particular\, we will see how to view the m=1 amplituhedron as a subcomplex of the TNN (k\,n)-Grassmannian and also as a complex of bounded faces of a hyperplane arrangement. \nReference: https://arxiv.org/abs/1608.08288

SUMMARY:Conference / Symposium:Latinx Research Week 2024
DESCRIPTION:Puentes is excited about its upcoming Latinx Research Week (LRW). Latinx Research Week is an interdisciplinary\, conference-style series of events that we host annually on campus to uplift research being conducted by Latinx staff\, faculty\, and students\, as well as research relevant to Latinx populations. This year Latinx Research Week will be held on March 11th - 14th in the Michigan Union. In 2023\, we were thrilled to host 16 research sessions\, allocate space for over 70 presenters\, and welcome over 300 attendees across our events. We hope to see an even greater turn out this year. \n\nhe theme for Latinx Research Week 2024 is Illuminating Familismo. Familismo is a psychological construct as well as a protective Latinx cultural value that emphasizes the importance of family support\, loyalty\, and honor. Through our interdisciplinary program\, we hope attendees will reflect on\, interrogate\, and reimagine how the academy can be transformed to acknowledge\, welcome\, and illuminate both our biological and chosen familial relationships. In past years\, we have seen spouses\, partners\, siblings\, parents\, children\, and members of the larger Latinx community attend Latinx Research Week in support of their presenting family members\, thus reimagining what an academic conference could and should look like. Additionally\, we have seen other families in attendance: families of co-workers\, cohort-mates\, best friends\, and lab families to name a few. We recognize that many members of the Puentes familia may be far from home but have still chosen to plant roots here and create meaningful communities of chosen family members at UM. We hope that our curated program will illuminate the importance of familismo and encourage attendees to imagine how we can transform academic spaces into more inclusive spaces that honor our families\, chosen or otherwise\, and the ways they have supported our academic journeys. Latinx Research Week 2024: Illuminating Familiso highlights the many ways our families motivate\, inspire\, encourage\, humanize\, and uplift us as we conduct groundbreaking work in our respective fields.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:CCPS Exhibition. 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.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:CES Exhibition. Camera as Passport: The Ship of Photographers
DESCRIPTION:Starting in 1933 when Hitler and the Nazis came to power\, a cadre of European Jews—German\, Polish\, Hungarian\, Austrian\, French—discovered that a camera could be their passport\, first out of Germany and then out of Europe. Some of these women and men had been planning one type of career—lawyer\, journalist\, painter\, musician—but then realized that they needed to find another way to earn a living. Taking photographs presented a sufficiently malleable opportunity that not only allowed them to leave Germany and then Europe but also to have a means to sustain themselves in foreign countries where they did not necessarily speak the language.\n   \n   They did\, however\, mobilize the visual language of photography. For a number of these figures\, forced migration became an asset during the golden age of photojournalism wherein their portable services were employed to supply picture stories on the move and around the world. Many of these Jews became influential photographers\, shaping how their contemporaries saw the world. Looking back on their work\, we can see how they have influenced our understanding of the modern world even as we can recognize their photographs as a significant component of modern Jewish visual culture.\n   \n   Of the dozens of photographers who fled Europe\, eight escaped on a single ship. The S. S. Winnipeg sailed from Marseille\, France on May 7\, 1941. Germany had already conquered both eastern and western Europe and was poised to invade the Soviet Union. The United States was not yet in the war. Among the 750 refugees aboard were photographers from Hungary\, Belgium\, France\, and Germany: Ilse Bing\, Josef Breitenbach\, Boris Lipnitsky\, Charles Leirens\, Yolla Niclas\, Fred Stein\, Monie Tannen\, and Ylla (Camilla Henriette Koffler). During lifeboat drills\, they discovered each other. Some of them narrowly escaped Vichy France under the auspices of the American journalist Varian Fry and the New York-based Emergency Rescue Committee that helped so many Jewish and anti-Fascist artists get out of Europe in the nick of time.\n   \n   This exhibit introduces the University of Michigan to this intrepid group as exemplary case studies of the wide range of European photographers who used their cameras as passports to other worlds. It focuses first on their European experiences pre-emigration before turning to their escape from Europe on the S. S. Winnipeg (with three of them taking photos on board the ship). The exhibit concludes with examples of some of their initial photographic reactions to the new world\, seeing it through European eyes.\n   \nIf there is anything we can do to make this event accessible to you\, please contact us. Please be aware that advance notice is necessary as some accommodations may require more time for the university to arrange.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Propositions to Progress: A Working Atlas of the Global South
DESCRIPTION:Historically\, maps have served as a panoptic technology\, assisting imperial powers in governance\, discipline\, and control. In this exhibit\, internationally renowned Filipino artist Cian Dayrit acts as a counter-cartographer\, reclaiming mapmaking as an emancipatory activity.\n\nDayrit’s artworks\, embroidered on textiles or painted over collages of colonial-era maps\, plot the extraction of natural resources\, land grabbing\, and dispossession and displacement in his native Philippines. At the same time\, their resistant lines summon new imaginaries out of the overlaps between places and memories.\n\nDayrit’s practice is critically and practically informed by the narratives of Filipino communities. Items exhibited alongside his artwork are the result of map-drawing workshops the artist has convened with rural\, urban\, and indigenous communities across the Philippines. Propositions to Progress invites you to engage in the collaborative endeavor to activate alternative territories from the ground up.\n\nCian Dayrit is an interdisciplinary artist exploring colonialism and ethnography\, archaeology\, history\, and mythology. Dayrit subverts the language of the state\, museum\, and military to visualize the contradictions on which these institutions are built. He studied at the University of the Philippines.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Souq Stories: Gaza Lives
DESCRIPTION:This exhibit is an extension of Souq Stories (https://souqstories.insaniyyat.org/)\, which was displayed in 2021 in all seven of the historic markets it depicts in Gaza\, Nazareth\, Acre\, Nablus\, Jerusalem\, Khalil\, and Jaffa. Its youth group organizers aimed to bolster Palestinian unity across the systemic barriers — colonial divides\, military checkpoints\, walls\, etc. — that fragment the lives of people living in Palestine. \n\nSouq Stories: Gaza Lives brings us to present-day Gaza\, sharing the stories of\, and images captured by\, young journalists and photographers who have continued to document the realities of life in Palestine. It also honors one among them\, Fouad Abu Khammash\, who was killed in January 2024 in an Israeli bomb attack on Gaza.\n\n< The exhibit includes images of people suffering the aftermath of the ongoing violence. >\n\nThis exhibit was curated by Souq Stories team members Shareef Sarhan and Waed Abbas in partnership with U-M students Amir Marshi\, Zainab Hakim\, Mariam Odeh\, and Vivian M. Nguyen. It’s offered in conjunction with this year’s Palestine Awareness Week\, an annual series of educational events related to Palestinian history\, culture\, and politics. Presented in association with Insaniyyat: Society of Palestinian Anthropologists.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Exile and the Mentor-student Relationship: A Force for Resistance and Decolonization
DESCRIPTION:This small exhibit features work in reproduction by Iraqi artists Hanaa Malallah and Mohammed Karim\, as well as an original painting by Karim. Both Malallah and Karim were significantly influenced by their mentors during and after their training in Iraq\, and continue to share their work and ideas with a new generation today.\n\nIn the United States\, Iraq is typically spoken about in a passive position: colonized\, under despotic rule\, occupied. Post-occupied. Through connections between mentors and students\, and students who became mentors to new students\, Iraqi artists have been a force for anti-colonialism\, claiming their heritage and its future for themselves.\n\nView the exhibit Monday-Friday in the Fine Arts Library\, Tappan Hall\, 855 S. University Ave.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:My Gender States
DESCRIPTION:On display at Lane Hall\, Rogério M. 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.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Orson Welles as Family Man: Son\, Husband\, Father
DESCRIPTION:This exhibit provides a unique glimpse into the actor/director Orson Welles’ private life. 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).

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Peter Dunn Exhibition
DESCRIPTION:Peter Dunn has historically been an object maker as a designer and sculptor. 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

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Products from Pollution: Carbon Capture and Conversion
DESCRIPTION:Phasing out fossil fuels is a primary means to fight climate change\, but it alone is not enough. Even if all emissions ceased tomorrow\, atmospheric CO2 levels are already dangerously high and the climate would keep warming before it eventually stabilizes. We have to reduce or “capture” legacy CO2 to avert disaster. As the International Panel on Climate Change stated\, the *only* way we can meet our climate goal is to use carbon capture in our climate change fighting tool kit. \n\nMany of the products that we use every day are made with carbon. Treating legacy CO2 as a resource with economic value rather than a pollutant allows us to generate revenue while also fighting climate change. \n\nHowever\, not all uses or types of captured CO2 are equal in terms of environmental or economic benefits. This exhibit includes a video game that helps explain the pros and cons associated with different methods and applications of carbon capture. \n\nAdditionally\, it also provides examples of two types of carbon removal\, an interactive block activity\, and sample products made from captured CO2.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:A Gathering
DESCRIPTION:Welcome. Make Yourself At Home.\n \nA Gathering brings together the newest works of art to enter UMMA’s collection — many on display here for the first time. \n \nAs a free\, public museum\, UMMA staff takes care of art for the benefit of the community and society at large. The works on view in this exhibition\, all brought into the Museum between 2019 and the present\, shows how institutions like UMMA are becoming more permeable to societal challenges\, and more nimble in responding to them in service to all in their communities. In this exhibition you will find works that reflect on how global migrations\, race\, gender\, and ecological change shape the way we engage with the world and inform our visions for the future.\n \nThis collection of artistic engagements with issues give us tools to envision who we want to be as individuals\, as a museum\, and as a society\, connected to one another across space and experience.\n \nSo gather here to take in these latest works of art brought here for you. Gather here to be engulfed in their forms and meanings\, to discuss their takes\, to learn\, to disagree. Gather to relax\, make a friend\, drink a coffee\, finish the daily Wordle. 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

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. For more information on the Cheboiganing (Burt Lake) Band of Ottawa and Chippewa Indians visit BurtLakeBand.org. \n\nLead support for Future Cache is provided by Lizzie and Jonathan Tisch\, Erica Gervais Pappendick and Ted Pappendick\, and the U-M Office of the Provost.\n
