Using quasi-random variation in the likelihood of fertility treatment success\, we find that involuntary infertility leads to substantial deterioration of mental health and couple stability\, with no impact on long-run labor market outcomes. Using sharp age cutoffs in public insurance coverage of IVF treatments\, we show that insurance substantially increases the use of expensive infertility treatments\, especially among lower-income households. We argue that households are responsive to insurance due to a liquidity effect rather than only traditional moral hazard. We discuss the implications for the role of public subsidies for infertility treatments in allocating additional children across the socioeconomic spectrum.\n\nThis talk is presented by the Labor Economics Seminar\, sponsored in part by the Department of Economics with generous gifts given through the Abraham and Thelma Zwerdling Labor Economics Program.

Environments made for humans remain challenging for autonomous robots due to their highly unstructured nature which arises from environmental occlusions and dynamic environments. This dissertation considers the problem of scalable\, robust robotic perception and planning in these challenging environments through distributed probabilistic inference. Distributed inference leverages graphical models to break up complex problems into multiple smaller subproblems which can be solved in parallel. This dissertation introduces three novel approaches based on this idea: first\, a parts-based method for localizing articulated objects in cluttered scenes\, using nonparametric belief propagation which leverages a learned likelihood and geometric priors. Second\, we propose a framework for robotic planning that accounts for uncertainty in goal specification\, using the planning-as-inference paradigm and formulating a novel goal loss. Third\, we perform distributed planning over multi-robot teams through a new algorithm called Stein Variational Belief Propagation. Through each of these works\, we demonstrate how maintaining diverse distribution modes lends robustness in challenging environmental conditions.\n\nThis dissertation also considers the challenge of robotics education to meet the growing demand for robotics and AI curricula across universities. We propose an undergraduate robotics course taught through hands-on projects involving programming a real robotic platform. Drawing on lessons from distributed inference\, we employ a distributed teaching collaborative approach to teaching introductory robotics across institutions. Finally\, we suggest best practices for teaching robotics as a discipline at the undergraduate level based on lessons learned teaching the course described at the University of Michigan and three partner institutions to over 100 students over the past three years.

LPs with heterogeneous characteristics choose optimal liquidity positions subject to uncertainty regarding the size of exogenous incoming transactions and the prices of assets in a centralized market. They engage in a game among themselves\, and the resulting liquidity distribution determines the exchange rate dynamics and potential arbitrage opportunities of the pool. We calibrate the distribution of LP characteristics based on Uniswap data and the equilibrium strategy resulting from this mean-field game produces pool exchange rate dynamics and liquidity evolution consistent with observed pool behavior. We subsequently introduce Maximal Extractable Value (MEV) bot attackers and develop a Stackelberg game between LPs and bots. This results in more accurate simulated pool exchange rate dynamics and stronger predictive power regarding the evolution of the pool liquidity distribution.\n\nJoint work with Erhan Bayraktar and Asaf Cohen UID:119736-21843513@events.umich.edu URL:https://events.umich.edu/event/119736 CLASS:PUBLIC STATUS:CONFIRMED CATEGORIES:Mathematics LOCATION:East Hall - 1360 CONTACT: END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20240328T133852 DTSTART;TZID=America/Detroit:20240424T160000 DTEND;TZID=America/Detroit:20240424T171500 SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Electrifying Nitrogen Splitting for Ammonia Synthesis DESCRIPTION:The electrochemical reduction of dinitrogen to ammonia promises a sustainable route to fertilizers and fuels. A mechanism based on direct N2 splitting into metal nitride complexes\, followed by proton-coupled electron transfer (PCET) to generate NH3\, will be considered. Electrochemical kinetic and spectroscopic studies of rhenium and molybdenum complexes capable of reductive N2 binding and splitting provide molecular-level mechanistic details on key steps relevant to ammonia synthesis. The mechanistic studies are complemented by molecular orbital theory analyses probing fundamental aspects of dinitrogen bonding and reactivity\, guiding the design of catalysts for ammonia synthesis.

Liberationist Christianity in Brazil DESCRIPTION:Professor Löwy calls “Liberationist Christianity” the vast social-religious movement\, which emerged at the beginning of the 1960s\, with a strong commitment to fight for social liberation. This movement involved considerable sectors of the Church – priests\, religious orders\, bishops – lay religious movements – Catholic Action\, the Christian student movement\, Christian young workers – pastoral committees with a popular base – labour\, land and urban pastorals –and ecclesiastical base communities. Liberation Theology\, which emerged after 1971 was the expression of this movement. The Church as an institution supported the military coup of 1964\, but under the influence of Liberationist Christianity it became\, after 1970\, a frontal opponent to the military dictatorship. Without this social-religious movement one cannot understand the emergence of a new workers and peasant movement in Brazil during the 1980’s (the Workers’ Party\, the Union Confederation\, and the Landless Peasants’ Movement\, etc.)\n \nMichael Löwy\, born in Brazil in 1938\, has lived in Paris since 1969. He is an emeritus research director in social sciences at the CNRS (French National Center for Scientific Research). His books include *Redemption and Utopia: Liberation Judaism in Central Europe*\, *Marxism in Latin America*\, and *The War of the Gods: Religion and Politics in Latin America*. His writings have been translated into 30 languages.

Gorodnik-Weiss showed that the distribution of dense Γ-orbits in the homogeneous space G/H is asymptotically the same as that of G-orbits which can then be described in terms of limiting ratios of certain volumes. One key ingredient in their proof is Shah's theorem which is derived from the famous Ratner's theorem. In a joint work with Zuo Lin\, we prove an effective version of this result assuming that the effective version of Shah's theorem holds in general. Thanks to the pioneering work of Lindenstrauss-Mohammadi-Wang\, such an effective version of Shah's theorem indeed holds for (G\, H) = (SL_2(C)\, SL_2(R)) and Γ arithmetic. We thus obtain an unconditional theorem in this case.

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.

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.

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.

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.

However\, his untimely passing in 2018 prevented the exhibition.

It is included in many permanent collections including Wayne State University in Detroit.

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.

It considers the process of germination as a site for the cross-pollination of ideas from diverse disciplines around the future of the built environment. \n\nAbout the artist:\nSusan Goethel Campbell creates multi-disciplinary work that considers the contemporary landscape to be an emergent system where nature\, culture\, and the engineered environment are indistinguishable from one another. Central to her practice is the collection\, documentation\, and observation of seasonal change and ephemera in both natural and artificial environments. Her work is realized in several formats\, including installation\, video\, prints\, and drawings\, as well as projects that engage communities to look at local and global environments.\n\nCampbell earned an MFA in printmaking from Cranbrook Academy of Art. Her work has been exhibited internationally in Belgium\, Germany\, Switzerland\, and Slovenia and nationally throughout the US\, including the National Museum of Women in the Arts\, Queens Art Museum\, Crystal Bridges Museum\, Museum of Contemporary Art Detroit\, Grand Rapids Art Museum\, the Detroit Institute of Arts\, The Drawing Center\, and The International Print Center New York. In 2009 she was one of 18 artists selected for the inaugural Kresge Artist Fellowship.\n\nCampbell has been awarded residencies at the Banff Centre for the Arts\, the Flemish Center for Graphic Arts\, the Jentel Foundation\, Beisinghoff Print Residency\, and the Print Research Institute of North Texas. She taught studio art for 15 years at the College for Creative Studies in Detroit and has been a visiting artist in numerous institutions in the United States and abroad. Her work is in the collection of the National Museum of Women in the Arts\, New York Public Library\, Detroit Institute of Arts\, Toledo Museum of Art\, and the University of Michigan Special Collections Library.\n\nThis project is made possible by a grant from the Mellon Foundation as part of the Institute for the Humanities' multi-year High Stakes Art initiative.

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

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

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.

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.

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  UID:114750-21833486@events.umich.edu URL:https://events.umich.edu/event/114750 CLASS:PUBLIC STATUS:CONFIRMED CATEGORIES:Art,Culture,Exhibition,Museum,Public Health,UMMA LOCATION:Museum of Art - A.

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

Choices about which artists you see in our galleries\, choices about what relevant facts we share about the works\, and choices about what - out of an infinite number of options - we don’t say about them.\n \nPieces in this exhibition were made at a time when the world came to be shaped by the ideologies of colonial expansion and Western domination. And yet\, that history and the stories of those marginalized do not readily appear in the still lives and portraits on display here. By grappling with what is visible and what remains hidden\, we are forced to examine whose stories and histories are prioritized and why.  \n \nIn this online exhibition\, you can explore our efforts to deeply question the Museum’s collection and our own past complicity in favoring colonial voices. In the Museum gallery\, which will open in early 2021\, you’ll be able to experience the changes we’re making to the physical space to highlight a more honest version of European and American history. \n \nBy challenging our own practice\, and continuing to add to what we know and what we write about the works we display\, UMMA tells a more complex and more complete story of this nation - one that unsettles\, and fails to settle for\, simple narratives. \n \n“Invisible things are not necessarily ‘not there’....

We develop a dynamic model of a city in which workers can decide to work in the central business district (CBD) or partly at home. Working in the CBD allows them to interact with other commuters\, which enhances their productivity through a standard production externality\, but entails commuting costs. Switching between modes of labor delivery is costly\, and workers face idiosyncratic preference shocks for remote work. We characterize the parameter set in which the city exhibits multiple stationary equilibria. Within this set\, a coordination mechanism can lead to stationary equilibria in which most workers commute or most of them work partially from home. In these cases\, large shocks in the number of commuters\, like the recent lockdowns and self-isolation generated by the COVID-19 pandemic\, can result in dynamic paths that make cities converge to a stationary equilibrium with large fractions of remote workers. Using cell-phone-based mobility data for the U.S.\, we document that although most cities experienced similar reductions in CBD trips during the pandemic\, trips in the largest cities have stabilized at levels that are only about 60% of pre-pandemic levels. In contrast\, smaller cities have\, on average\, returned to pre-pandemic levels. House price panel data by city show consistent changes in house price CBD-distance gradients. We estimate the model for 270 U.S. cities and show that cities that have stabilized at a large fraction of remote work are much more likely to have parameters that result in multiple stationary equilibria. Our results imply welfare losses in these cities that average 2.7%.\n\nThis talk is presented by the International Economics Seminar\, sponsored by the Department of Economics with generous gifts given through the Economics Strategic Fund.

One area of functional trait ecology that remains understudied is temporal variation in functional traits\, especially in understory forest communities\, and its impact on functional diversity. I leveraged an experimental chronosequence at the University of Michigan Biological Station to investigate how functional traits of understory plants vary at three time scales - within the growing season\, between two years\, and along the chronosequence - and in coordination with environmental changes\, species turnover\, and intraspecific variation. This project calls attention to the temporal variability of plant communities that goes unnoticed in single time-point studies and highlights the use of chronosequences for studying community assembly.

He received his PhD in Electrical Engineering and Computer Science from UC Berkeley and his BTech in Electrical Engineering from IIT Madras. His research interests lie in high dimensional statistics\, optimization\, signal processing\, and information theory\, and their applications to machine learning\, reinforcement learning\, and data science. Pananjady has received research awards from Adobe and Amazon\, a Best Paper Prize (runner-up) for Young Researchers in Continuous Optimization from the Mathematical Optimization Society\, the Lawrence D. Brown Award from the Institute of Mathematical Statistics\, the David J. Sakrison Memorial Prize (for the best dissertation in EECS at Berkeley)\, and a Simons-Berkeley Research Fellowship in Probability\, Geometry\, and Computation in High Dimensions. His teaching has been recognized at both UC Berkeley and Georgia Tech.\n\n\nAbstract:\nIterative algorithms are the workhorses of modern signal processing and statistical learning and are widely used to fit complex models to random data. While the choice of an algorithm and its hyperparameters determines both the speed and fidelity of the learning pipeline\, it is common for this choice to be made heuristically\, either by expensive trial-and-error or by comparing upper bounds on convergence rates of various candidate algorithms. Motivated by these issues\, we develop a principled framework that produces sharp\, iterate-by-iterate characterizations of solution quality for complex iterative algorithms on several nonconvex model-fitting problems with random data. Such sharp predictions can provide precise separations between families of algorithms while also revealing nonstandard convergence phenomena. We will showcase the general framework on several canonical models in statistical machine learning.

These manifolds are toy models for spatial geometry in general relativity. I will discuss a \"drawstring\" construction\, which modifies a manifold near a given curve\, reducing its length and incurring only negligible damage to a scalar curvature lower bound. This extends ideas of Basilio-Sormani and Lee-Naber-Neumayer. The drawstrings produce unexpected examples with relevance to a few areas\, including the question \"How flat is an isolated gravitational system with very little total mass?\" This is based on joint work with Kai Xu.

One aspect which has not been taken sufficiently into account is it’s relation to the antisemitic trials of his times\, where Jews were accused of treason or “ritual murder” : the trials of Tisza (Hungary\, 1882)\, Dreyfus (France\, 1894-1899)\, Hilsner (Czechoslovaquia\, 1899-1900) and Beiliss (Russia 1912-13). Kafka knew about them and made comments in his correspondence or diaries. This “Jewish moment” is essential for the understanding of the novel. However\, Joseph K. has no religious or ethnic identity: Kafka discovers in the Jewish experience the quintessential human experience of Injustice.\n\nThe University of Michigan College of Literature\, Science and the Arts greatly values inclusion and access for all.

However\, the efficiencies of most plasmon-driven and polariton-driven processes are quite low\, likely due to the lack of mechanistic understanding of the underlying physical processes. Here I’ll discuss our use of Raman spectroscopies to advance our fundamental understanding of these systems. First\, I’ll describe our development of ultrafast surface-enhanced Raman spectroscopy (SERS) to probe the contributions of plasmon-generated hot electron transfer\, heating\, and vibrational energy transfer on timescales relevant to photocatalysis. Second\, I will talk about our efforts in mapping out reaction coordinates in polaritonic systems\, quantifying the degree of mode-specific activation. These efforts in developing a fundamental understanding of polariton and plasmon-mediated processes in molecules will ultimately aid in the rational design of cost-effective photonic materials capable of driving industrially relevant chemistries using solar radiation.

The Big History Project seeks to change this by building off students’ natural curiosity about our world and its nature. Over the last fifteen years U-M faculty in the Marsal Family School of Education\, with support from Bill Gates\, have helped develop Big History into a revolutionary program now taught in over 3\,000 American schools and over 40 countries worldwide. Within the Project students travel over 14 billion years from the Big Bang to the rise of agriculture and beyond. Weaving together history\, astronomy\, biology\, chemistry\, and many other subjects into a single narrative the Projects has helped elementary and high school students better understand people\, civilizations\, and how we are connected to everything around us.\n\nBob Bain is Associate Professor in the Marsal Family School of Education and in the Department of History at the University of Michigan. A high school history and social studies teacher for 26 years\, he is the founding Director of the World History and Literature Initiative\, co-founder of the award-winning Clinical Rounds Project\, and chair of U-M’s Secondary Teacher Education Program.

After Sav and Katie attended a school presentation by The Moxie Strings\, their collective fate would be sealed forever. “If the Moxie Strings hadn’t come to our school\, we might not have pursued music professionally\,” admits Sav.\nSav and Katie transferred to Interlochen Arts Academy for the remainder of high school\, and since then they have released six full-length albums\, three EPs\, and two live albums\, scored the indie documentary “One Simple Question\,” and collaborated with Keller Williams\, Kaki King\, Tom Paxton\, Kim Richey\, Dar Williams\, and Mary Gauthier. \nJoining Sav and Katie is Detroit multi-instrumentalist Katelynn Corll. The journey of The Accidentals has only just begun. “The goal of our music has always been shared experiences. Music helps us process things that are hard to process\,” says Sav. “A lot of the writing comes from touring\, and touring is just a myriad of extremes\, triumphs\, and failures. It’s how we connect with people in those moments that shape our experiences. Hopefully\, people can relate to something we’re creating in a way that feels like understanding. Maybe it offers a different perspective\, and that leads to less loneliness and more community.”\n\nPlease visit https://mutotix.umich.edu/4652/4653 for more detail.

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.

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.

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.

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.

However\, his untimely passing in 2018 prevented the exhibition. In honor of the artist\, his wife Meighen Jackson has assembled this body of work for this exhibition.\n\nA 1960’s graduate of Monteith College at Wayne State\, Bill saw himself not as a storyteller nor a documentarian\, but as a photographer seeking images with the power and creativity of late 20th century painting and music making.\n\nBill Jackson’s work is represented nationally by Walter Wickiser Gallery in Manhattan and regionally by M Contemporary in Ferndale\, MI.

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.

It considers the process of germination as a site for the cross-pollination of ideas from diverse disciplines around the future of the built environment. \n\nAbout the artist:\nSusan Goethel Campbell creates multi-disciplinary work that considers the contemporary landscape to be an emergent system where nature\, culture\, and the engineered environment are indistinguishable from one another. Central to her practice is the collection\, documentation\, and observation of seasonal change and ephemera in both natural and artificial environments. Her work is realized in several formats\, including installation\, video\, prints\, and drawings\, as well as projects that engage communities to look at local and global environments.\n\nCampbell earned an MFA in printmaking from Cranbrook Academy of Art. Her work has been exhibited internationally in Belgium\, Germany\, Switzerland\, and Slovenia and nationally throughout the US\, including the National Museum of Women in the Arts\, Queens Art Museum\, Crystal Bridges Museum\, Museum of Contemporary Art Detroit\, Grand Rapids Art Museum\, the Detroit Institute of Arts\, The Drawing Center\, and The International Print Center New York. In 2009 she was one of 18 artists selected for the inaugural Kresge Artist Fellowship.\n\nCampbell has been awarded residencies at the Banff Centre for the Arts\, the Flemish Center for Graphic Arts\, the Jentel Foundation\, Beisinghoff Print Residency\, and the Print Research Institute of North Texas. She taught studio art for 15 years at the College for Creative Studies in Detroit and has been a visiting artist in numerous institutions in the United States and abroad. Her work is in the collection of the National Museum of Women in the Arts\, New York Public Library\, Detroit Institute of Arts\, Toledo Museum of Art\, and the University of Michigan Special Collections Library.\n\nThis project is made possible by a grant from the Mellon Foundation as part of the Institute for the Humanities' multi-year High Stakes Art initiative.

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

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

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.

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.

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  UID:114750-21833487@events.umich.edu URL:https://events.umich.edu/event/114750 CLASS:PUBLIC STATUS:CONFIRMED CATEGORIES:Art,Culture,Exhibition,Museum,Public Health,UMMA LOCATION:Museum of Art - A.

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  UID:86001-21795872@events.umich.edu URL:https://events.umich.edu/event/86001 CLASS:PUBLIC STATUS:CONFIRMED CATEGORIES:Art,Exhibition,Faculty,Museum,Nature,Research,UMMA LOCATION:Museum of Art - Eleanor Noyes Crumpacker Gallery CONTACT: END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20240428T180006 DTSTART;TZID=America/Detroit:20240426T100000 DTEND;TZID=America/Detroit:20240426T235959 SUMMARY:Other:Regionals DESCRIPTION:Frisbee tournament in Zeeland\, MI UID:121109-21845834@events.umich.edu URL:https://events.umich.edu/event/121109 CLASS:PUBLIC STATUS:CONFIRMED CATEGORIES: LOCATION:Zeeland, Michigan CONTACT: END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20240409T154300 DTSTART;TZID=America/Detroit:20240426T100000 DTEND;TZID=America/Detroit:20240426T120000 SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:Topics in Causal Inference Addressing Practical Data Challenges DESCRIPTION:Abstract: Evaluating the effects of interventions is important to inform policy decisions across many disciplines. This dissertation is motivated by applications including evaluating medical treatments\, state-level policy decisions\, and educational curricular interventions. In each of these applications\, there are practical barriers to using previously developed effect estimation methods with available data. We present estimation strategies that overcome these challenges or offer practical benefits of their own\, beyond those of typical methods.\n\nFirst\, we apply a method that integrates experimental (RCT) and observational data for treatment effect estimation to a paired cluster-randomized field experiment in education (CTAI study). For this data integration approach\, first\, we fit an outcome model with the auxiliary\, observational data. Then\, we use predictions from the auxiliary model as a “super covariate” in treatment effect estimation with the RCT. The application to the CTAI study demonstrates the process and practical benefits of fitting an auxiliary model in addition to the data integration method’s efficacy in a relevant applied setting. \n\nWhile we were able to access both auxiliary and RCT data for the CTA study\, this may not always be the case in practice. For example\, during the first year of the COVID-19 pandemic\, large patient databases existed\, but access to this data was restricted. To overcome this challenge\, we aimed to share a useful auxiliary model for analyses of COVID-19 RCTs. In collaboration with physicians\, we developed a risk model for in-hospital COVID-19 mortality. We discuss considerations for developing a model that would be useful for data integration in diverse (and unknown) RCTs and for physicians in practice. \n\nWe additionally explore more general approaches to integrate observational and experimental data for causal inference\, when data privacy is a concern. Namely\, we consider ways to release observational datasets\, which limit disclosure of confidential information and can still be used in two treatment effect estimators\, which leverage auxiliary data for generalizability or precision. We find that integrating privacy transformed observational data still improves generalizability or precision of treatment effect estimates\, beyond that achieved using the RCT data alone.\n\nResearchers may also want to use data that cannot be fully released\, due to data privacy concerns\, for treatment effect estimation directly. For example\, analyses of health policies often rely on data provided by US data agencies\, but publicly available mortality outcomes in the US are censored\, so counts of 10 or fewer individual deaths are suppressed. This results in sometimes substantial missing data for county-level analyses. We address this common challenge to policy evaluations by presenting a rank-sum test statistic that accommodates outcomes censored in this way. We apply the rank-sum test to estimate the county-level effect of Medicaid expansion as part of the Affordable Care Act on mortality in the US in 2014\, with attention to observational study design and additional statistical challenges that arise with county-level mortality counts.\n\nFinally\, motivated by the CTAI study\, we present a general framework for design-based estimation in paired cluster-randomized experiments (pCRTs) for average individual effects. Given that pCRTs are common\, it is surprisingly not obvious how to analyze them. Our framework clarifies the bias-variance trade-off between different treatment effect estimators and emphasizes the benefits of covariate adjustment for estimation with pCRTs. This analysis and extensive simulation studies provide guidance for how to analyze pCRTs in practice.

Choices about which artists you see in our galleries\, choices about what relevant facts we share about the works\, and choices about what - out of an infinite number of options - we don’t say about them.\n \nPieces in this exhibition were made at a time when the world came to be shaped by the ideologies of colonial expansion and Western domination. And yet\, that history and the stories of those marginalized do not readily appear in the still lives and portraits on display here. By grappling with what is visible and what remains hidden\, we are forced to examine whose stories and histories are prioritized and why.  \n \nIn this online exhibition\, you can explore our efforts to deeply question the Museum’s collection and our own past complicity in favoring colonial voices. In the Museum gallery\, which will open in early 2021\, you’ll be able to experience the changes we’re making to the physical space to highlight a more honest version of European and American history. \n \nBy challenging our own practice\, and continuing to add to what we know and what we write about the works we display\, UMMA tells a more complex and more complete story of this nation - one that unsettles\, and fails to settle for\, simple narratives. \n \n“Invisible things are not necessarily ‘not there’.... Certain absences are so stressed\, so ornate\, so planned\, they call attention to themselves\; arrest us with intentionality and purpose\, like neighborhoods that are defined by the population held away from them.” \n \n— Toni Morrison\n\nLead support for Unsettling Histories: Legacies of Slavery and Colonialism is provided by the University of Michigan Office of the Provost\, the U-M Arts Initiative\, and the Susan and Richard Gutow Endowed Fund.\n  UID:84303-21621270@events.umich.edu URL:https://events.umich.edu/event/84303 CLASS:PUBLIC STATUS:CONFIRMED CATEGORIES:Art,European,Exhibition,History,Museum,UMMA LOCATION:Museum of Art - European and American Decorative Art CONTACT: END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20240426T121519 DTSTART;TZID=America/Detroit:20240426T100000 SUMMARY:Sporting Event:Women's Tennis vs Purdue DESCRIPTION:Women's Tennis vs Purdue UID:121661-21846884@events.umich.edu URL:https://events.umich.edu/event/121661 CLASS:PUBLIC STATUS:CONFIRMED CATEGORIES:Athletics,Athletics - Women's Tennis LOCATION:Varsity Tennis Bldg CONTACT: END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20240426T181504 DTSTART;TZID=America/Detroit:20240426T110000 DTEND;TZID=America/Detroit:20240426T170000 SUMMARY:Exhibition:Commence: A Stamps Graduating Students Exhibition DESCRIPTION:The Penny W.

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.

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.

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).

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  UID:107870-21817792@events.umich.edu URL:https://events.umich.edu/event/107870 CLASS:PUBLIC STATUS:CONFIRMED CATEGORIES:Art,Exhibition,Free,Humanities,Museum,Staff,UMMA LOCATION:Museum of Art - Lizzie and Jonathan Tisch Apse CONTACT: END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20240130T121548 DTSTART;TZID=America/Detroit:20240427T110000 DTEND;TZID=America/Detroit:20240427T200000 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.

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  UID:114750-21833488@events.umich.edu URL:https://events.umich.edu/event/114750 CLASS:PUBLIC STATUS:CONFIRMED CATEGORIES:Art,Culture,Exhibition,Museum,Public Health,UMMA LOCATION:Museum of Art - A.

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

Choices about which artists you see in our galleries\, choices about what relevant facts we share about the works\, and choices about what - out of an infinite number of options - we don’t say about them.\n \nPieces in this exhibition were made at a time when the world came to be shaped by the ideologies of colonial expansion and Western domination. And yet\, that history and the stories of those marginalized do not readily appear in the still lives and portraits on display here. By grappling with what is visible and what remains hidden\, we are forced to examine whose stories and histories are prioritized and why.  \n \nIn this online exhibition\, you can explore our efforts to deeply question the Museum’s collection and our own past complicity in favoring colonial voices. In the Museum gallery\, which will open in early 2021\, you’ll be able to experience the changes we’re making to the physical space to highlight a more honest version of European and American history. \n \nBy challenging our own practice\, and continuing to add to what we know and what we write about the works we display\, UMMA tells a more complex and more complete story of this nation - one that unsettles\, and fails to settle for\, simple narratives. \n \n“Invisible things are not necessarily ‘not there’.... Certain absences are so stressed\, so ornate\, so planned\, they call attention to themselves\; arrest us with intentionality and purpose\, like neighborhoods that are defined by the population held away from them.” \n \n— Toni Morrison\n\nLead support for Unsettling Histories: Legacies of Slavery and Colonialism is provided by the University of Michigan Office of the Provost\, the U-M Arts Initiative\, and the Susan and Richard Gutow Endowed Fund.\n  UID:84303-21621271@events.umich.edu URL:https://events.umich.edu/event/84303 CLASS:PUBLIC STATUS:CONFIRMED CATEGORIES:Art,European,Exhibition,History,Museum,UMMA LOCATION:Museum of Art - European and American Decorative Art CONTACT: END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20240427T181517 DTSTART;TZID=America/Detroit:20240427T110000 SUMMARY:Sporting Event:Women's Track & Field vs Len Paddock Open DESCRIPTION:Women's Track & Field vs Len Paddock Open UID:121743-21847226@events.umich.edu URL:https://events.umich.edu/event/121743 CLASS:PUBLIC STATUS:CONFIRMED CATEGORIES:Athletics LOCATION:Off Campus Location CONTACT: END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20240405T194239 DTSTART;TZID=America/Detroit:20240427T113000 DTEND;TZID=America/Detroit:20240427T121500 SUMMARY:Presentation:We Are Stars DESCRIPTION:What are we made of?

The record is releasing on January 26\, 2024 via Rounder Records. It features a decidedly more electric sound than Sarah’s earlier bluegrass-flavored efforts\, and it shows this brilliant artist maturing as a songwriter. A Texas native\, she's spent most of her adult life living in New York City\, but shortly before writing the album Sarah left her adopted home to join her soon-to-be husband in Nashville. The geographic shake-up led to a sonic one as well for “Polaroid Lovers.” For the first time in her career she opened herself up to collaborators\, leading to writing sessions with Daniel Tashian\, Ruston Kelly and Natalie Hemby. “‘Polaroid Lovers” is an album-long meditation on those strangely ephemeral moments that indelibly shape our lives. \"What I love about a Polaroid is that it's capturing something so fleeting\, but at the same time it makes that moment last forever\,\" says Sarah. \"It made sense as a title for a record where all the songs are snapshots of different love stories\, and there's a feeling of time being expansive despite that impermanence.\"\n\nPlease visit https://mutotix.umich.edu/4429/4430 for more detail.

Through research\, narratives\, demographic data\, and a variety of visual and published materials\, explore multifaceted aspects of mixed race heritage with insights from many perspectives.\n\nThe 2020 U.S. Census illuminated a 276 percent increase in individuals who identify as \"two or more races\" since 2010. In recognition of the growing numbers of mixed race-identifying people at the University of Michigan\, throughout the country\, and across the globe\, we're excited to unveil this new exhibit — a unique exploration of changing demographics and intersectional identities.\n\n[The Hatcher Library will be closed December 21 to January 1.] UID:121281-21846140@events.umich.edu URL:https://events.umich.edu/event/121281 CLASS:PUBLIC STATUS:CONFIRMED CATEGORIES:Free,Library LOCATION:Hatcher Graduate Library - Clark Library (2nd floor) CONTACT: END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20240221T152752 DTSTART;TZID=America/Detroit:20240428T080000 DTEND;TZID=America/Detroit:20240428T230000 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.
