SUMMARY:Exhibition:A Prison\, a Prisoner\, and a Prison Guard
DESCRIPTION:Join us for a multimedia exploration of the impact of prisons on countries and communities across the Middle East and North Africa (MENA) region through the lens of “prison art.” The exhibit delves into the dynamic interplay between incarceration and creative expression to make sense of carceral systems.\n\nBy presenting prison art from various countries in the MENA region\, including Algeria\, Egypt\, Iran\, Iraq\, Lebanon\, Palestine\, Sudan\, Syria\, and Yemen\, this exhibit unfolds as a “journey” into the prison system and demonstrates the ways in which art can be a tool of expression and reconciliation for survivors\, detainees’ families\, and society at large. It promotes drawing parallels between the prison experience in the region and worldwide\, highlights the intentionality of carceral systems\, and expands the conversation to include prison-impacted communities. Viewers are invited to navigate the cross-generational\, human experiences of imprisonment often obscured behind prison walls and within individuals.\n\nCurated by Sumaya Tabbah and Susan Aboeid of The Ḥafathah Collective\, this traveling exhibit was organized by U-M Students Organize for Syria (SOS) in partnership with U-M Library and with support from the U-M Arts Initiative.\n\nPlan to attend the related discussion\, \"Art\, Justice\, and Carcerality: The Role of Creative Expression in the Pursuit of Justice\,\" on February 6.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Being Mixed Race in a Mono-racially Organized World
DESCRIPTION:The exhibit \"Being Mixed Race in a Mono-racially Organized World: Interracial Identity in the U.S. and Around the World — What Research and Mixed Race People Tell Us\" is an exploration into the library's collections about the diversity of mixed race heritage. 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.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:The Bibliophile and the Library: Private-Press Books from the Collection of Bill Heidrich
DESCRIPTION:View beautifully illustrated books that stand as remarkable testaments to the work of twentieth-century small private presses\, which\, in contrast to the trend of mass commercialization\, produced limited editions that celebrated the uniqueness of manual craftsmanship. Features such as exquisite typeface design\, letterpress printing\, handmade paper\, traditional illustration techniques like woodcut and engraving\, and the inclusion of original art by renowned artists highlight the presses' dedication to artistry and detail.\n\nThe display opens with an edition of \"The Works of Geoffrey Chaucer\,\" published in 1896 by William Morris at his Kelmscott Press\, a pivotal press that greatly influenced the development of the private press movement as a means of preserving and revitalizing the fine printing and art traditions of the past. Additionally\, the exhibit includes some examples of artist’s proofs\, offering a glimpse into the intricate creative process behind these exceptional works.\n\nThese books are on loan from the collection of Bill Heidrich\, a long-time supporter of the University of Michigan Library.

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:Impossible Conversations
DESCRIPTION:Impossible Conversations is an exhibition and film installation by artists and filmmakers\, Pratāp Rughani and David Chung. The film centers a seemingly impossible dialogue between Arno Michaelis\, a former Neo-Nazi gang founder and Pardeep Kaleka\, son of the Sikh Temple President\, Satwant Singh Kaleka\, one of seven people killed in the shooting attack at the Oak Creek Sikh Temple (Gurudwara) by a white supremacist in 2012. \n \nThe film installation explores what happens when – for over a decade – Pardeep and Arno committed to a path of restorative communication - to listen deeply and connect with what motivates each other in the genesis and aftermath of atrocity.\nHow does healing begin? From the toxic polarization\, division and extreme racist violence that resulted in one of the worst mass shootings at a religious site in American history\, Pardeep insists that complete healing must eventually be a collective process for all\, to liberate both sides.\nAt Stamps Gallery\, Impossible Conversations will be accompanied by a dialogue and research room as well as photomurals that expand on the themes of restorative justice\, gun violence\, and how to sustain difficult dialogues to combat extremism and toxic polarization. \nExhibition curated by Srimoyee Mitra. Impossible Conversations has been supported in part by the Arts Research: Incubation &amp\; Acceleration (ARIA) program of The University of Michigan Office of the Vice President Research and the Arts Initiative\, Institute of Firearm Prevention Pilot Grant\, the Stamps School of Art and Design\, and the University of the Arts London. \nExhibition Programs\nAn Opening Screening\, Talkback\, and Reception will take place on Friday\, January 17\, 2025 from 5:30 – 8 p.m.\, and a Symposium will take place on Saturday\, January 18\, 2025 from 10 a.m. - 3:30 p.m. \nAbout the Artists\nPratāp Rughani is a writer and non-fiction filmmaker. His work develops documentary practice to enable people of radically different perspectives come into relation\, sometimes in the aftermath of violence and atrocity for example in South Africa\, Aboriginal Australia\, Europe\, Rwanda and the USA. Configuring a pro-filmic space to enable shared “witnessing” and the path towards restorative justice is a driving force in “Impossible Conversations” evolving through his practice in over thirty documentary films and exhibitions for BBC TV\, Channel 4\, Modern Art Oxford\, galleries and activist groups. The ethics of giving sustained attention to the experiences of marginalized\, excluded or sometimes reviled “others” and bringing them in relationship to the broader culture is central to his research into ethics of storytelling and the development of “Restorative Narrative.”\nRughani writes widely on the ethics of creative practice\, serves on several editorial Boards\, has won awards for film\, teaching\, and research\, and is Professor of Documentary Practices at the University of the Arts\, London.\nDavid Chung is an acclaimed visual artist and filmmaker. His work focuses on how identities are shaped in immigrant communities and the challenges of refugees as they integrate into new homelands.\nChung has exhibited his drawings\, prints\, and video installations at the Boston Museum of Fine Arts\, the Asia Society\, the Walker Arts Center\, the Studio Museum in Harlem\, the Gwangju Biennale\, the Smithsonian Institution\, the Los Angeles County Museum of Art\, and the Whitney Museum of American Art. Chung has received a National Endowment for the Arts Fellowship and the National Board Film Board of Canada's Award for Best Documentary Film. He was the 2013 Kim Koo Visiting Professor at Harvard University. \nChung is a professor and the director of the MFA Graduate Program at the University of Michigan Penny W. Stamps School of Art &amp\; Design.

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:The Stampede
DESCRIPTION:Born from their passion for the arts\, The Stampede is a student-led organization building a new space for artists. In September 2023\, four undergraduates united with a simple mission: to create a space for showcasing exciting new art work. They established a foundation and worked to build a buzz through outreach and excitement. The Stampede first hosted a pop-up exhibition (party) at a friend's house\, exhibiting 53 pieces of original work\, with food\, drink\, and music\, and a smashing turnout from the local community. They have since evolved\, developed an infrastructure\, and grown into a platform for dynamic art work.\nToday\, The Stampede curates and facilitates exhibitions and events that bring together artists\, writers\, and musicians. From pop-ups and art markets to concerts and gallery shows\, they provide a vibrant platform for creativity for the community. The organization has broken new ground on multiple accounts to pave new ways for artists today and tomorrow\; bridging the divide between student and school. Functioning as an artist collective\, The Stampede focus on creating large-scale artworks\, promotional materials\, and merchandise for their events.\nThis exhibition offers a glimpse behind the scenes of The Stampede: its origins\, current endeavors\, and future aspirations. Since its inception\, The Stampede has continuously surprised with its growth and transformation. Committed to providing opportunities for artists\, they will keep hosting events for their community and friends.\nJoin The Stampede in their journey\; they invite you to... RUN WITH US!

DESCRIPTION:Stamps Gallery commissioned Michelle Hinojosa (MFA\, 2023) to reimagine the pillars on Division Street that flank the Gallery. Hinojosa has created log cabin quilts to adorn the columns in front of Stamps Gallery. The log cabin quilts traditionally represent the warm hearth at the center of a home. This installation reflects on the interplay between home\, placemaking\, labor\, and intergenerational memories of migration. Rather than quilting cotton designed to softly embrace the body\, these quilts are sewn from outdoor grade\, UV-resistant polyester. The quilt is an ode to Hinojosa’s grandmother who illegally crossed the US/Mexico border holding her babies and her quilts. As she and her family drove across the United States to work in the fields of the Salinas Valley\, the quilts offered a safe space for her and her family. Hinojosa celebrates their resilience to her grandmother and elders while also drawing attention to precarity and violence experienced by refugees and migrants crossing the US-Mexico border in our present today.\nArtist’s bio:\nMichelle Inez Hinojosa is an artist\, educator\, and researcher whose work is informed by Indigenous and Latine/x/a/o studies. Born and raised in Texas\, she earned her Bachelor of Fine Arts degree in both drawing and painting and art education with a minor in art history at the University of North Texas. She holds a Master of Fine Arts from the University of Michigan. She works with quilting\, bead weaving\, embroidery\, jewelry\, transparent film installations\, painting\, ceramics\, and sculpture to honor and explore the history of migration in her family and humanize the current discourse around migration still occurring at the southern border. Alongside her artwork she maintains a writing practice to re-story\, re-make\, and re-claim the often subordinated narratives of Latinx\, Chicanx\, Mexican\, and Texican peoples. \n\nRecently\, Hinojosa was named an inaugural Creative Careers Artist in Residence at the University of Michigan\, she has also attended residencies at Mildred's Lane (Pennsylvania)\, Anderson Ranch Art Center (Aspen\, CO) and The Cedars Union (Dallas\, TX).

SUMMARY:Film Screening:Korean Cinema NOW | Kim Dae-Jung Must Not Die | 길위에 김대중
DESCRIPTION:View the trailer at: https://youtu.be/mUy740Q2_pg?si=V2r3ErulG4q5GHnv \n\nThroughout the era of military dictatorships in South Korea\, Kim Dae-jung was the country’s most celebrated—and persecuted—politician.

The film contains never-before-seen footages of Kim on death row\, speaking eloquently on Korea’s future. “Kim Dae-jung Must Not Die” is a vivid record of the remarkable life and times of South Korea’s most famous champion of democracy. \n\nDirected by Min Hwanki \nPresented in Korean and English with English Subtitles\n\nThe Korean Cinema NOW 2025 series features critical picks of recent Korean film hits. Screened at the State Theater\, all films are free and open to the public.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:A Prison\, a Prisoner\, and a Prison Guard
DESCRIPTION:Join us for a multimedia exploration of the impact of prisons on countries and communities across the Middle East and North Africa (MENA) region through the lens of “prison art.” The exhibit delves into the dynamic interplay between incarceration and creative expression to make sense of carceral systems.\n\nBy presenting prison art from various countries in the MENA region\, including Algeria\, Egypt\, Iran\, Iraq\, Lebanon\, Palestine\, Sudan\, Syria\, and Yemen\, this exhibit unfolds as a “journey” into the prison system and demonstrates the ways in which art can be a tool of expression and reconciliation for survivors\, detainees’ families\, and society at large. It promotes drawing parallels between the prison experience in the region and worldwide\, highlights the intentionality of carceral systems\, and expands the conversation to include prison-impacted communities. Viewers are invited to navigate the cross-generational\, human experiences of imprisonment often obscured behind prison walls and within individuals.\n\nCurated by Sumaya Tabbah and Susan Aboeid of The Ḥafathah Collective\, this traveling exhibit was organized by U-M Students Organize for Syria (SOS) in partnership with U-M Library and with support from the U-M Arts Initiative.\n\nPlan to attend the related discussion\, \"Art\, Justice\, and Carcerality: The Role of Creative Expression in the Pursuit of Justice\,\" on February 6.

DESCRIPTION:The exhibit \"Being Mixed Race in a Mono-racially Organized World: Interracial Identity in the U.S. and Around the World — What Research and Mixed Race People Tell Us\" is an exploration into the library's collections about the diversity of mixed race heritage. 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.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:The Bibliophile and the Library: Private-Press Books from the Collection of Bill Heidrich
DESCRIPTION:View beautifully illustrated books that stand as remarkable testaments to the work of twentieth-century small private presses\, which\, in contrast to the trend of mass commercialization\, produced limited editions that celebrated the uniqueness of manual craftsmanship. Features such as exquisite typeface design\, letterpress printing\, handmade paper\, traditional illustration techniques like woodcut and engraving\, and the inclusion of original art by renowned artists highlight the presses' dedication to artistry and detail.\n\nThe display opens with an edition of \"The Works of Geoffrey Chaucer\,\" published in 1896 by William Morris at his Kelmscott Press\, a pivotal press that greatly influenced the development of the private press movement as a means of preserving and revitalizing the fine printing and art traditions of the past. Additionally\, the exhibit includes some examples of artist’s proofs\, offering a glimpse into the intricate creative process behind these exceptional works.\n\nThese books are on loan from the collection of Bill Heidrich\, a long-time supporter of the University of Michigan Library.

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: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:Lecture / Discussion:Debussy in Paris: Poets\, Politics\, and the Piano Intertwined
DESCRIPTION:Guest artist Catherine Kautsky\, Professor of Piano at Lawrence University\, presents a lecture-recital placing Debussy's piano music in the context of fin-de siècle Paris. We’ll look at fairies and clowns\, writers and painters\, arabesques and castanets\, and along the way we’ll encounter the many issues of race\, gender\, colonialism and nationalism that affected (and afflicted) Paris c. 1900.\n\nCATHERINE KAUTSKY\, Chair of Keyboard at Lawrence University in Appleton\, WI\, has been lauded by the *New York Times* as “a pianist who can play Mozart and Schubert as though their sentiments and habits of speech coincided exactly with hers … The music spoke directly to the listener\, with neither obfuscation nor pretense.” She was the 2016 winner of the Lawrence Excellence in Teaching Award\, the 2013 winner of the university’s Faculty Convocation Award\, and in 2017 she was honored with the George and Marjorie Olsen Chandler Chair in Music. Her recording of the Debussy *Preludes*\, released by Centaur in September 2014\, was said to “bring out all the power\, majesty\, and mystery of Debussy’s conception\,“ and a recording of the complete Brahms *Sonatas for Violin and Piano* was released in 2019 to top reviews. Ms. Kautsky\, whose teachers included Rosina Lhevinne\, Gyorgy Sebok\, Leon Fleisher\, Martin Canin\, and Gilbert Kalish\, has concertized widely\, performing in major halls such as Alice Tully Hall\, Carnegie Recital Hall\, the Phillips Collection\, Jordan Hall\, and the Chicago Cultural Center. She has soloed with numerous orchestras\, including the St. Louis Symphony and Milwaukee Chamber Orchestra\, and appeared frequently on public radio. Two sabbaticals were spent in Paris preparing performances and research on Debussy\, and she has played\, taught\, and presented masterclasses on six continents. Known as both a solo and collaborative performer\, Ms. Kautsky has performed chamber music at the Aspen\, Tanglewood\, and Grand Teton Festivals.\n\nMs. Kautsky\, whose students have won prizes across the country and gone on to leading graduate programs\, has taught at Lawrence University Conservatory of Music since 1987\, with a 6 -year hiatus as piano faculty and chair of the Keyboard Dept. at University of Wisconsin-Madison. Known for her cross-disciplinary interests\, she was awarded the Arts Institute Creative Arts Award at UW-Madison and has presented frequently at national conferences on such topics as “On the Trail of Chopin and George Sand\,” “WWI: A Centenary Look at the Musical Wars\, “ and “Celebrating Debussy and the Arts du Spectacle.” Her articles have appeared in Clavier Companion\, American Music Teacher\, and International Piano\, and her book\, *Debussy’s Paris: Piano Portraits of the Belle Epoque*\, was published by Rowman & Littlefield in September 2017. Reviewed by Booklist as \"a fascinating fusion of music\, literature\, and social history\,\" it has won accolades from eminent pianists across the country.  Ms. Kautsky is also deeply concerned with the role music plays in society and administers a series of prison concerts in WI as well as heading a chapter of Music for Food.\n\nMs. Kautsky has just released a 24 video set\, “Great Works for the Piano” for *Great Courses/Wondrium*\, and is also presenting courses on piano literature for the Juilliard Extension Division and the 92nd Str. Y of New York City. Her current performances and research center on the music of Vienna in the years during and directly preceding the Holocaust\, and she has recently returned from presenting and performing at the Relais de Mémoire in Vienna. She holds a bachelor’s degree from the New England Conservatory\, a master’s from the Juilliard School\, and a doctorate from the State University of New York at Stony Brook.\n\nhttp://www.catherinekautsky.com

No prior experience is necessary and all are welcome.\n\nWhat is Heartfulness Meditation? \n\nHeartfulness is about feeling. Our entire life is led by feelings and inspirations\, and that is the role of the heart. When we manage to listen to the heart and capture the inspiration that comes from within\, we learn to master our life. The whole exercise of fine-tuning the heart with the mind is through meditation on the heart\, and that is why it is called Heartfulness Meditation.

SUMMARY:Performance:The Kombos Collective Concert - Out of Time\, Out of Place: Hellenic Music in Diaspora
DESCRIPTION:Michael Malis (piano)\, Constantine Novotny (baritone)\, and Ellie Falaris Ganelin (flute)\n\nA look at displacement and self-discovery through the eyes of artists in the diaspora. Hellenic-American artists Michael Malis\, Constantine Novotny\, and Ellie Falaris Ganelin explore these concepts through the convergence of music and poetry. The cornerstone of the program is Malis’s original song cycle\, \"Another Shore\, Another Country\,\" set to the poetry of C.P. Cavafy\, commissioned by ProMusica Detroit and premiered in February 2024. Cavafy\, who lived most of his life in Alexandria\, Egypt\, is the quintessential voice of the Greek diaspora and a prominent figure among 20th-century poets. \n\nThrough Ganelin’s and Malis’s own arrangements\, the trio performs songs of love and longing by Greek idols Mikis Theodorakis and Manos Hadjiadikis. These masterful colleagues born the same year (1925) each brought a new vision and prominence to Hellenic music through the radio in their homeland and in film worldwide. Rounding out the program is Malis’s solo piano work\, Hold Tightly Your Vision of How Things Could Be\, exploring his precarious sense of belonging between two worlds as the descendant of Greek immigrants living in America.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:A Prison\, a Prisoner\, and a Prison Guard
DESCRIPTION:Join us for a multimedia exploration of the impact of prisons on countries and communities across the Middle East and North Africa (MENA) region through the lens of “prison art.” The exhibit delves into the dynamic interplay between incarceration and creative expression to make sense of carceral systems.\n\nBy presenting prison art from various countries in the MENA region\, including Algeria\, Egypt\, Iran\, Iraq\, Lebanon\, Palestine\, Sudan\, Syria\, and Yemen\, this exhibit unfolds as a “journey” into the prison system and demonstrates the ways in which art can be a tool of expression and reconciliation for survivors\, detainees’ families\, and society at large. It promotes drawing parallels between the prison experience in the region and worldwide\, highlights the intentionality of carceral systems\, and expands the conversation to include prison-impacted communities. Viewers are invited to navigate the cross-generational\, human experiences of imprisonment often obscured behind prison walls and within individuals.\n\nCurated by Sumaya Tabbah and Susan Aboeid of The Ḥafathah Collective\, this traveling exhibit was organized by U-M Students Organize for Syria (SOS) in partnership with U-M Library and with support from the U-M Arts Initiative.\n\nPlan to attend the related discussion\, \"Art\, Justice\, and Carcerality: The Role of Creative Expression in the Pursuit of Justice\,\" on February 6.

DESCRIPTION:The exhibit \"Being Mixed Race in a Mono-racially Organized World: Interracial Identity in the U.S. and Around the World — What Research and Mixed Race People Tell Us\" is an exploration into the library's collections about the diversity of mixed race heritage. 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.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:WCEE Exhibition. Threads of Tradition: The Art of Ukrainian Vyshyvanka
DESCRIPTION:The act of embroidering and weaving designs onto cloth is deeply rooted in Ukrainian traditions. Embellished clothing (sorochky)\, ritual cloths (rushnyky)\, and household textiles accompany a person from birth until death\, punctuating important life events in between.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Andy Ross Exhibition
DESCRIPTION:The pieces here are from a large series of works made over the last several years. In them\, Ross explores humor and personal meaning through absurd juxtapositions of pairs of wildly varied images. Each single image is stripped of its original context (be it\, for example\, a history book\, an instruction manual\, or a magazine advertisement)\, placed on a white background like some kind of specimen\, and presented afresh with a new “companion image.” These companion images confront\, contrast and converse with each other\, and thereby build new relationships\, narratives\, jokes\, and contexts.\n\nAndy Ross grew up in Macomb County\, and has been making art in various mediums since the 1970s. He received a BFA degree from College for Creative Studies\, and an MFA degree from University of Michigan. He has taught photography\, art\, and web design at colleges in California and Michigan. His photographs and collages have been exhibited in schools\, galleries\, and museums across the United States.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Chimera
DESCRIPTION:*Chimera* is an immersive exhibition centered on a newly commissioned film\, also titled *Chimera*\, which fuses elements from Newsome's prior works *Hands Performance* and *Build or Destroy* with a new interquel film that bridges their narratives. This connecting piece explores the origins and journey of the bejeweled figure in flames from *Build or Destroy*\, revealing where they come from and the purpose that led them to Earth. This exhibition reflects a bold shift in Newsome's practice toward sci-fi filmmaking\, layering the architecture of film\, movement\, and world-building to probe themes of identity\, resistance\, and creation.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Elizabeth Boyd-Hartmann Dizik Exhibition
DESCRIPTION:This body of work represents a playful exploration of form\, color\, and scale through the lens of cellular shapes. Inspired by the complex patterns of biological life\, the pieces are a celebration of growth\, transformation\, and the joy of experimentation. The use of non-precious materials\, such as wood balls and paint\, allowed for a liberating approach to composition and color\, while the spherical forms and circular panels evoke the look of petri dishes—symbolizing both scientific curiosity and organic development.\nBorn in Detroit\, Elizabeth is a multidisciplinary artist and mother based in the metro Detroit area\, where she works from a studio in her home. With a background in bench jewelry\, her earlier work focused on studio jewelry and was represented by Galerie Noel Guyomarc’h in Montreal.\nElizabeth’s work has been exhibited both locally and internationally. She holds a BA in Jewelry Design\, with First Class Honours\, from Central Saint Martins in London\, a BFA from the University of Michigan\, and an MFA from Cranbrook Academy of Art\, where she specialized in Metalsmithing and Architecture. Her diverse practice spans jewelry\, sculpture\, and installation\, blending materials and techniques to explore themes of production\, growth\, transformation\, and organic form.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Red Summer: Racial Violence in the American Landscape\, 1917-1923
DESCRIPTION:The Red Summer portfolio represents the stories of various locations in the American landscape where racial violence (often characterized as “Race Wars” at the time) erupted between 1917 and 1923. These years of conflict reveal several aspects of racial anxiety that inform our contemporary experience\, including\, though not limited to\; racism\, fear of violent black revolt\, lynching\, poverty\, mass incarceration\, and competition for employment. The term “Red Summer” was first used by James Weldon Johnson to describe the violent attacks against black communities during 1919.  \n\nThough the events of the early twentieth century seem to be remote and fading apparitions of an American past\; my work is concerned with the power and influence of our shared historical narrative upon the present. The upheaval of Red Summer occurred approximately fifty years after the American Civil War\, fifty years before the height of the Civil Rights Era\, and three centuries after the first enslaved Africans arrived in English colonies that would become the United States. \n\nThe project combines photographs of the contemporary landscape made at or near the site of racial conflict with fragmented selections of contemporaneous newspaper reporting (1917-1923). In many cases\, the newsprint images include the surrounding stories or advertisements. The combination of the landscape photograph and the reproduction of newspaper fragments (which invade the contemporary with a narrative from the past)\, is a rupture and a conversation on the timeline between past and present.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Redefining the Crown
DESCRIPTION:In Winter 2025\, the Lane Hall exhibit space will feature a portraiture series titled Redefining the Crown showcasing the powerful stories of six Black breast cancer survivors.\n\nBased on a photo essay by U-M Faculty Versha Pleasant (MD/MPH) and Ava Purkiss (PhD) in Medicine at Michigan\, this exhibition examines the cultural and personal significance of hair within Black communities\, particularly through the lens of breast cancer treatment and recovery. The term \"crown\" is deeply symbolic in Black culture\, signifying beauty\, strength\, and identity. The featured photo essay by photographer Tafari Stevenson-Howard captures the intimate journeys of Ann Chatman\, Tanisha Kennedy\, Felecia McDaniel\, Shantell Elaine McCoy\, Tamara Lynn Myles\, and Veleria Banks.\n\nThrough their narratives and portraits\, the exhibit examines how these women have navigated the profound impact of hair loss caused by chemotherapy\, inviting the audience to witness their stories with radical empathy. It explores the cultural pride and personal identity intricately tied to their hair\, and how these elements are redefined amidst their battles with breast cancer.\n\nThe exhibit will be on view from January 21\, 2025 to August 8\, 2025. This exhibition is presented with support from IRWG\, the Department of Women's and Gender Studies\, and Michigan Medicine. \n\nLocated on the first floor of Lane Hall (204 S. State Street)\, the Exhibit Space is free and open to the public\, M-F\, 9am-4pm.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:The Bibliophile and the Library: Private-Press Books from the Collection of Bill Heidrich
DESCRIPTION:View beautifully illustrated books that stand as remarkable testaments to the work of twentieth-century small private presses\, which\, in contrast to the trend of mass commercialization\, produced limited editions that celebrated the uniqueness of manual craftsmanship. Features such as exquisite typeface design\, letterpress printing\, handmade paper\, traditional illustration techniques like woodcut and engraving\, and the inclusion of original art by renowned artists highlight the presses' dedication to artistry and detail.\n\nThe display opens with an edition of \"The Works of Geoffrey Chaucer\,\" published in 1896 by William Morris at his Kelmscott Press\, a pivotal press that greatly influenced the development of the private press movement as a means of preserving and revitalizing the fine printing and art traditions of the past. Additionally\, the exhibit includes some examples of artist’s proofs\, offering a glimpse into the intricate creative process behind these exceptional works.\n\nThese books are on loan from the collection of Bill Heidrich\, a long-time supporter of the University of Michigan Library.

SUMMARY:Presentation:Everyone is talking about ‘belonging’ but what do they really mean? A critical race and optimal distinctiveness analysis of school belonging research
DESCRIPTION:Sense of belonging has long been recognized as a fundamental psychological need and essential component of achievement motivation and socioemotional thriving. However\, research on school belonging has only recently begun to examine the barriers to\, supports for\, and experiences of belonging among racially marginalized students of color within US schools and universities. Further\, within an era of DEIB (Diversity\, Equity\, Inclusion\, & Belonging) discourse and backlash\, we have a limited understanding of what belonging means\, how it is internalized\, and what shapes it for such students of color. Through this lecture\, Dr. Matthews evaluates the developmental trends in school belonging research conducted with racially marginalized student populations and describes three distinct trends of school belonging research: assimilationist\, reformist\, and sociopolitical\, as well as the ideological characteristics of each trend. Further\, he employs critical race and optimal distinctiveness theories as conceptual guides to assess the affordances and limits of each trend and how the research literature has evolved across these three trends. Finally\, Dr. Matthews offers insights for responsibly advancing school belonging research in ways that authentically address the needs of racially marginalized student groups and honor the cultural and contextual nuance of their lived experiences.

SUMMARY:Livestream / Virtual:Flash Talk | Local Ritual Practices in Rural Sanctuaries of Sardinia during the Punic and Roman Rule
DESCRIPTION:In this presentation\, Mattia Lauretti will outline key aspects of his ongoing PhD research project. His study focuses on the so-called “rural sanctuaries” of Sardinia during the Punic and Roman colonization of the island. Intriguingly\, these sanctuaries were repurposed prehistoric structures known as *nuraghi*. Current scholarship often associates these sites with a Demeter cult\; however\, Mattia’s research seeks to situate the interpretation of these sanctuaries within a broader archaeological framework.\n\nSpecifically\, he aims to examine the role and influence of Nuragic culture in the context of new colonial dynamics spanning the 4th–1st centuries BCE. By incorporating recent theoretical approaches to imperialism\, Mattia’s work addresses questions of continuity\, discontinuity\, and cultural transformation in relation to these sanctuaries and their associated cultic practices. Through this lens\, he hopes to provide a more nuanced understanding of the interplay between indigenous traditions and colonial systems in Sardinia during this transformative period.\n\nMattia Lauretti is a PhD student at Freie Universitaet Berlin in the Berlin Graduate School of Ancient Studies (BerGSAS) who is participating in IPAMAA this term. \n\nTo register for this Flash Talk\, fill out the form at https://forms.gle/qSL1zvoMcQnWq43s8. Zoom log-in information will be provided upon registration. Please sign up by 9:30 AM the day of the event to ensure you receive a confirmation email containing the access code.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:More than Gray: Reimagining Early America in Full Color
DESCRIPTION:The American past was lived in full color\, but this vibrant history can be easily missed in surviving evidence. You can’t deny that there’s something about a black-and-white photograph that feels… stuffy. With portraits showing people with their shirts buttoned right to the neck and everything in shades of gray and brown\, our imaginations can incline to thinking of the past as a bit staid\, if not downright dull. But look a little closer\, and you’ll see signs that the fashion choices available to those who came before us were more colorful than you might first think. From the fabrics they wore\, to the games they played\, or the books they read\, their world was alive with bright hues. This exhibit invites you to reimagine history with a fuller color palette and picture the vibrancy and joy that just might be hidden behind the unsmiling photographs.\n\nExhibition opening weekdays from 12-4.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:HEP-Astro Seminar | Treasure Hunting Without a Map: First Anomaly Detection Results From CMS
DESCRIPTION:Despite hundreds of searches\, no clear evidence of beyond standard model particles have been found at the LHC so far. However\, there still remains a huge landscape of possible signals hiding in LHC data\, which is very difficult to fully cover with traditional strategies. Recently\, a new class of ‘anomaly detection’ techniques have been developed which aim to cover as much of this landscape as possible so that potential discoveries are not missed. These techniques leverage novel data-driven machine learning methods to minimize the trade-off between sensitivity and model independence. In this talk\, I will present results from the first application of anomaly detection in CMS : a search for resonances decaying to two jets with 'anomalous' substructure. I will also discuss future prospects for these techniques more broadly\, and how they may play a key role in a future\, robust LHC search program.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:Hell Risen from Chornobyl: Apocalypse\, Anthropocene\, and Anarchist Insurrection in Volodymyr Kuznetsov's destroyed Last Judgment
DESCRIPTION:This lecture examines an artwork whose 2013 destruction for alleged blasphemy ignited fierce debates on censorship and freedom of speech under an emerging pro-Russian authoritarian regime in pre-war Ukraine. Shifting the conversation from iconoclasm back to the image itself\, Nazar Kozak focuses on the artwork's visual references to the 1986 Chornobyl* nuclear disaster — an event that not only contaminated the Ukrainian soil with radiation but also enhanced the apocalyptic complex in the cultural psyche. He argues that the artwork resists this fatalist outlook\, instead urging viewers to take responsibility for averting the world’s end and restoring the disaster-affected land into a habitable place again.\n\nNazar Kozak (Ph.D.\, Lviv Academy of Arts) is a senior researcher in the Department of Art History at the Ethnology Institute of the National Academy of Sciences\, Ukraine. His scholarly interests comprise both medieval and contemporary art\, which he approaches from social and eco-critical perspectives. Kozak's 2017 article on art interventions during the Ukrainian Maidan Revolution received an honorable mention as a finalist for the CAA’s Art Journal Award.\n\n*Note: Nazar Kozak uses the spelling “Chornobyl” to reflect the Ukrainian name for the place. The more commonly used spelling\, “Chernobyl\,” represents the Russian pronunciation imposed by Soviet authorities on Ukraine’s toponyms in the past. \n__________\n\n\"What presents itself everywhere as an ecological catastrophe has never stopped being\, above all\, the manifestation of a disastrous relationship to the world.\" \n- The Invisible Committee\, The Coming Insurrection (2007)

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Foundations of Community Engagement
DESCRIPTION:Foundations of Community Engagement is an interactive workshop that introduces principles and practices of equitable\, ethical community engagement. Participants will develop a deeper understanding of what the term “community engagement” means\, as well as the many forms it might take - from research and course-based projects to philanthropy\, activism\, policy\, and direct service. Across all these forms of engagement\, participants will learn concepts and actions that promote equitable partnerships\, center community-defined priorities\, and disrupt entrenched power dynamics between universities and community members. Participants will also discuss real-world community engagement scenarios that ask them to apply what they’ve learned in the workshop to various situations.\n\n**This workshop is an updated version of Ginsberg’s long-standing Entering\, Engaging\, and Exiting (E3) session. If you’ve attended that session in the past\, you’ll gain additional knowledge from this session.**\n\nRegister for a Session Here: https://sessions.studentlife.umich.edu/track/event/16509

SUMMARY:Exhibition:A Prison\, a Prisoner\, and a Prison Guard
DESCRIPTION:Join us for a multimedia exploration of the impact of prisons on countries and communities across the Middle East and North Africa (MENA) region through the lens of “prison art.” The exhibit delves into the dynamic interplay between incarceration and creative expression to make sense of carceral systems.\n\nBy presenting prison art from various countries in the MENA region\, including Algeria\, Egypt\, Iran\, Iraq\, Lebanon\, Palestine\, Sudan\, Syria\, and Yemen\, this exhibit unfolds as a “journey” into the prison system and demonstrates the ways in which art can be a tool of expression and reconciliation for survivors\, detainees’ families\, and society at large. It promotes drawing parallels between the prison experience in the region and worldwide\, highlights the intentionality of carceral systems\, and expands the conversation to include prison-impacted communities. Viewers are invited to navigate the cross-generational\, human experiences of imprisonment often obscured behind prison walls and within individuals.\n\nCurated by Sumaya Tabbah and Susan Aboeid of The Ḥafathah Collective\, this traveling exhibit was organized by U-M Students Organize for Syria (SOS) in partnership with U-M Library and with support from the U-M Arts Initiative.\n\nPlan to attend the related discussion\, \"Art\, Justice\, and Carcerality: The Role of Creative Expression in the Pursuit of Justice\,\" on February 6.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:WCEE Exhibition. Threads of Tradition: The Art of Ukrainian Vyshyvanka
DESCRIPTION:The act of embroidering and weaving designs onto cloth is deeply rooted in Ukrainian traditions. Embellished clothing (sorochky)\, ritual cloths (rushnyky)\, and household textiles accompany a person from birth until death\, punctuating important life events in between.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Andy Ross Exhibition
DESCRIPTION:The pieces here are from a large series of works made over the last several years. In them\, Ross explores humor and personal meaning through absurd juxtapositions of pairs of wildly varied images. Each single image is stripped of its original context (be it\, for example\, a history book\, an instruction manual\, or a magazine advertisement)\, placed on a white background like some kind of specimen\, and presented afresh with a new “companion image.” These companion images confront\, contrast and converse with each other\, and thereby build new relationships\, narratives\, jokes\, and contexts.\n\nAndy Ross grew up in Macomb County\, and has been making art in various mediums since the 1970s. He received a BFA degree from College for Creative Studies\, and an MFA degree from University of Michigan. He has taught photography\, art\, and web design at colleges in California and Michigan. His photographs and collages have been exhibited in schools\, galleries\, and museums across the United States.

SUMMARY:Conference / Symposium:Building Power Toward Collective Liberation
DESCRIPTION:The mission of Building Power is to center community knowledge in the fight against white extremism. Often in academic spaces\, we do not learn from the activists\, community leaders and organizers doing the work in our communities. We want to flip this narrative and provide a space for community leaders to be the teachers\, and for students to engage in this type of learning in an accessible way. \n\nThis past year\, the world has become more aware of the ongoing struggles of many\, including Congo\, Sudan\, and Palestine. Although we are not there\, there is a sense of urgency and responsibility for us to also advocate for the liberation of these people in addition to our own selves. We recognize how these struggles that are happening across the world are happening parallel here. Dr. King said\, “Injustice anywhere is a threat to justice everywhere. We are caught in an inescapable network of mutuality\, tied in a single garment of destiny. Whatever affects one directly\, affects all indirectly.” Black freedom struggles in the United States have always had global dimensions and a deep impact on others across the world.\n\nFor the purposes of Building Power\, we will be using the following definition of collective liberation from the Center of Racial Justice in Education: Collective liberation acknowledges that multiple oppressions exist\, and that we work in solidarity to undo oppression in ourselves\, our families\, our communities\, and our institutions\, in order to achieve a world that is truly free. Black Radical Healing Pathways chose this topic for this year’s Building power because we wanted to explore the meaning of ujima (collective work and responsibility) in current day contexts and liberation movements. \n\nWhile we talk about global struggles\, it is imperative to remember that we have multiple liberation movements happening on US soil today that also require collective liberation. As we work within these movements\, having the knowledge of global struggles allows us to be more intentional in our work and advocacy. Keeping the essence of Building Power’s mission in mind\, we plan on inviting speakers who have diverse experiences in multiple liberation movement spaces with impacts here and abroad.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Chimera
DESCRIPTION:*Chimera* is an immersive exhibition centered on a newly commissioned film\, also titled *Chimera*\, which fuses elements from Newsome's prior works *Hands Performance* and *Build or Destroy* with a new interquel film that bridges their narratives. This connecting piece explores the origins and journey of the bejeweled figure in flames from *Build or Destroy*\, revealing where they come from and the purpose that led them to Earth. This exhibition reflects a bold shift in Newsome's practice toward sci-fi filmmaking\, layering the architecture of film\, movement\, and world-building to probe themes of identity\, resistance\, and creation.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Elizabeth Boyd-Hartmann Dizik Exhibition
DESCRIPTION:This body of work represents a playful exploration of form\, color\, and scale through the lens of cellular shapes. Inspired by the complex patterns of biological life\, the pieces are a celebration of growth\, transformation\, and the joy of experimentation. The use of non-precious materials\, such as wood balls and paint\, allowed for a liberating approach to composition and color\, while the spherical forms and circular panels evoke the look of petri dishes—symbolizing both scientific curiosity and organic development.\nBorn in Detroit\, Elizabeth is a multidisciplinary artist and mother based in the metro Detroit area\, where she works from a studio in her home. With a background in bench jewelry\, her earlier work focused on studio jewelry and was represented by Galerie Noel Guyomarc’h in Montreal.\nElizabeth’s work has been exhibited both locally and internationally. She holds a BA in Jewelry Design\, with First Class Honours\, from Central Saint Martins in London\, a BFA from the University of Michigan\, and an MFA from Cranbrook Academy of Art\, where she specialized in Metalsmithing and Architecture. Her diverse practice spans jewelry\, sculpture\, and installation\, blending materials and techniques to explore themes of production\, growth\, transformation\, and organic form.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Red Summer: Racial Violence in the American Landscape\, 1917-1923
DESCRIPTION:The Red Summer portfolio represents the stories of various locations in the American landscape where racial violence (often characterized as “Race Wars” at the time) erupted between 1917 and 1923. These years of conflict reveal several aspects of racial anxiety that inform our contemporary experience\, including\, though not limited to\; racism\, fear of violent black revolt\, lynching\, poverty\, mass incarceration\, and competition for employment. The term “Red Summer” was first used by James Weldon Johnson to describe the violent attacks against black communities during 1919.  \n\nThough the events of the early twentieth century seem to be remote and fading apparitions of an American past\; my work is concerned with the power and influence of our shared historical narrative upon the present. The upheaval of Red Summer occurred approximately fifty years after the American Civil War\, fifty years before the height of the Civil Rights Era\, and three centuries after the first enslaved Africans arrived in English colonies that would become the United States. \n\nThe project combines photographs of the contemporary landscape made at or near the site of racial conflict with fragmented selections of contemporaneous newspaper reporting (1917-1923). In many cases\, the newsprint images include the surrounding stories or advertisements. The combination of the landscape photograph and the reproduction of newspaper fragments (which invade the contemporary with a narrative from the past)\, is a rupture and a conversation on the timeline between past and present.

DESCRIPTION:In Winter 2025\, the Lane Hall exhibit space will feature a portraiture series titled Redefining the Crown showcasing the powerful stories of six Black breast cancer survivors.\n\nBased on a photo essay by U-M Faculty Versha Pleasant (MD/MPH) and Ava Purkiss (PhD) in Medicine at Michigan\, this exhibition examines the cultural and personal significance of hair within Black communities\, particularly through the lens of breast cancer treatment and recovery. The term \"crown\" is deeply symbolic in Black culture\, signifying beauty\, strength\, and identity. The featured photo essay by photographer Tafari Stevenson-Howard captures the intimate journeys of Ann Chatman\, Tanisha Kennedy\, Felecia McDaniel\, Shantell Elaine McCoy\, Tamara Lynn Myles\, and Veleria Banks.\n\nThrough their narratives and portraits\, the exhibit examines how these women have navigated the profound impact of hair loss caused by chemotherapy\, inviting the audience to witness their stories with radical empathy. It explores the cultural pride and personal identity intricately tied to their hair\, and how these elements are redefined amidst their battles with breast cancer.\n\nThe exhibit will be on view from January 21\, 2025 to August 8\, 2025. This exhibition is presented with support from IRWG\, the Department of Women's and Gender Studies\, and Michigan Medicine. \n\nLocated on the first floor of Lane Hall (204 S. State Street)\, the Exhibit Space is free and open to the public\, M-F\, 9am-4pm.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:The Bibliophile and the Library: Private-Press Books from the Collection of Bill Heidrich
DESCRIPTION:View beautifully illustrated books that stand as remarkable testaments to the work of twentieth-century small private presses\, which\, in contrast to the trend of mass commercialization\, produced limited editions that celebrated the uniqueness of manual craftsmanship. Features such as exquisite typeface design\, letterpress printing\, handmade paper\, traditional illustration techniques like woodcut and engraving\, and the inclusion of original art by renowned artists highlight the presses' dedication to artistry and detail.\n\nThe display opens with an edition of \"The Works of Geoffrey Chaucer\,\" published in 1896 by William Morris at his Kelmscott Press\, a pivotal press that greatly influenced the development of the private press movement as a means of preserving and revitalizing the fine printing and art traditions of the past. Additionally\, the exhibit includes some examples of artist’s proofs\, offering a glimpse into the intricate creative process behind these exceptional works.\n\nThese books are on loan from the collection of Bill Heidrich\, a long-time supporter of the University of Michigan Library.

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

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Research Talk: Cognitive Mechanisms of Discovery
DESCRIPTION:Abstract: To understand and navigate our world\, both individuals and scientific communities create simplifying representations\, such as concepts and theories. How do we construct useful representations from our experiences\, and how do we use these representations to guide our learning? In this talk\, I discuss empirical research on the mechanisms of human concept learning\, highlighting the ease with which we adopt new\, even arbitrary\, conceptualizations. I illustrate how these acquired concepts instantly shape how we perceive and explore the world. For example\, I show that our perception of objects becomes biased by our conceptual needs and our knowledge about these objects. I demonstrate that similar mechanisms are at play when scientific conceptualizations\, such as the DSM in psychology and the periodic table in chemistry\, guide scientific exploration. Then\, I discuss the double-edged nature of theory-guided discovery—although conceptualizations can efficiently steer us towards new experiences that further refine our knowledge\, they can also lead our exploration astray. I present a computational model of scientific discovery in which agents conduct experiments\, build theories\, and share results to advance collective understanding of the world. The model reveals that when new experiments are guided by existing theoretical frameworks\, scientific communities risk missing important aspects of the world not yet captured by their theories. I conclude by reviewing my current and future research that integrates cognitive psychology\, machine learning\, and philosophy of science to enhance our understanding of how theories and observations can inform each other to support—rather than hinder—human learning and scientific progress.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:EEB Tuesday Seminar Series - The Forest and the Trees: Paleobotanical Context\, Proxies\, and Assumptions
DESCRIPTION:This event is part of our ongoing Tuesday Seminar Series.\n\nPlants are not just the \"green background\" that animals live in front of\; for most terrestrial environments\, plants are the environment. Being non-motile photoautotrophs means that plants reflect the realities of their local environment. For more than a century\, paleobotanists have used leaf physiognomic-climate relationships to develop proxies to reconstruct paleoclimate and paleoenvironment. However\, as these relationships have primarily been studied in the temperate Northern Hemisphere\, there is still much to learn about the relationships of \"Gondwanan\" floras to climate.\n\nJoin Remotely: https://umich.zoom.us/j/94285293918\nMeeting ID: 942 8529 3918\nPasscode: tuesem

SUMMARY:Performance:Kathy Beck\, carillon
DESCRIPTION:Kathy Beck 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). Hearing protection earmuffs are provided for visitors. 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.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:LCIT: what is inclusive teaching?
DESCRIPTION:Our first meeting will reground us in the question of: \"What is inclusive or equitable teaching anyway?\" Our group has changed since we started in 2018 and I hope it will be helpful to revisit a couple of definitions of what we're here to talk about in the first place.\n\nOne definition comes from CRLT: https://crlt.umich.edu/overview-equity-focused-teaching-michigan (and I found it oft-quoted on other university websites!)\n\nAnother (list of practices) comes from AMS: https://www.ams.org/learning-careers/leaders/inclusive-classrooms\n\nAnd finally\, a linked toolkit from Yale provides both some framework as well as practices: https://poorvucenter.yale.edu/FacultyResources/Diversity-Inclusion \n\nRead what you're able of those resources\, but know that no reading is required to attend!\n\nSome (possible) overarching questions for our meeting will be:\n- what is YOUR definition of inclusive teaching?\n- which\, if any\, of these resources help advance your idea and practice of inclusive teaching? What resources are missing?\n- how do you know if you're \"doing it right\"?

SUMMARY:Exhibition:More than Gray: Reimagining Early America in Full Color
DESCRIPTION:The American past was lived in full color\, but this vibrant history can be easily missed in surviving evidence. You can’t deny that there’s something about a black-and-white photograph that feels… stuffy. With portraits showing people with their shirts buttoned right to the neck and everything in shades of gray and brown\, our imaginations can incline to thinking of the past as a bit staid\, if not downright dull. But look a little closer\, and you’ll see signs that the fashion choices available to those who came before us were more colorful than you might first think. From the fabrics they wore\, to the games they played\, or the books they read\, their world was alive with bright hues. This exhibit invites you to reimagine history with a fuller color palette and picture the vibrancy and joy that just might be hidden behind the unsmiling photographs.\n\nExhibition opening weekdays from 12-4.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:The Feminist Sex Wars
DESCRIPTION:With the “Hear\, Here” series\, we aim to facilitate conversations around new research in the humanities. Faculty fellows at the Institute for the Humanities will discuss a part of their current project in a short talk followed by a Q & A session.\n\nAbout this talk:\nIn the late 1970s\, a single-minded crusade against pornography emerged within the feminist movement\, and quickly displaced a rich history of analysis and critique of issues having to with sexuality\, gendered violence\, and social power. This talk explores the trajectory of that crusade and its more current manifestations in movements whose goal is to abolish sex work\, framed as “trafficking.” The rhetorics developed within feminism have been adopted by non-feminist and often anti-feminist constituencies such as religious organizations\, law enforcement\, nation states\, and real estate developers for their own agendas and goals. Although much of the current rhetoric about pornography\, prostitution\, and trafficking was incubated in obscure feminist publications\, these frameworks have had a huge impact on how the media\, the general public\, and institutions of the state treat sexual behaviors and commerce.\n\nGayle Rubin is a 2024-25 Jean Yokes Woodhead Faculty Fellow and Associate Professor of Anthropology and Women’s & Gender Studies.

SUMMARY:Presentation:Webinar: Examining Oyster Reef Fauna Using Emerging\, Non-invasive and Traditional Sampling Techniques
DESCRIPTION:Foundation species such as the eastern oyster (Crassostrea virginica) serve numerous\necological functions and provide myriad ecosystem services within coastal environments. These reefs improve water quality\, stabilize the adjacent salt marsh\, and provide key habitat for approximately 300 species\, including fishes\, shrimps\, and crabs\, among other fauna. However\, due to overfishing\, disease and other stressors\, oyster reef habitat has\ndeclined drastically. With increased conservation and restoration efforts to increase oyster reef quantity\, there is a need for a more holistic understanding of oyster reef condition and function for reef-associated fauna.\n\nIn 2023\, a Catalyst team comprising 4 Reserves and 4 university partners sampled oyster reefs across the southeast. The team used traditional sampling\, acoustic imaging\, stable isotope analyses\, oyster disease assays\, and environmental DNA to characterize the community of reef-associated fauna. Following the field campaign\, the team held two project meetings and a virtual workshop to engage directly with intended users. In this webinar\, the project team will share the high-level takeaways from their sampling\, describe the successful user engagement process\, and gauge interest in further participation by Reserves from across the System.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:CM-AMO Seminar | Superluminal Ring Laser Gyroscopes - Theory and Experiment
DESCRIPTION:A superluminal laser is a type of laser where the group velocity of the intra-cavity field is much larger than the speed of light in vacuum without violating causality. With this property\, superluminal lasers can be utilized for constructing metrological devices such as gyroscopes with enhanced sensitivity. To operate a laser under the superluminal condition\, a gain medium\, atom vapor for instance\, with a tailored dispersion spectrum needs to be employed in the optical resonator. The abnormal dispersion spectrum\, typically in the shape of a steep negative dispersion on a normal dispersion background\, can be produced through placing all atoms in a quantum state where the electron spin and the nuclear spin are aligned or anti-aligned\, followed by coupling these atoms with off-resonance laser beams. In this talk\, I will present the approaches for realizing superluminal lasers we developed over the past decade\, as well as the theoretical models for simulating them.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Colloquium Seminar: Electron-Electron Interactions and Moire Materials: An Applied Mathematics Approach
DESCRIPTION:When two layers of a periodic material are rotated relative to one another\, a large scale pattern\, called a moire pattern\, is formed. Although moire patterns have been known in textiles for hundreds of years\, it wasn't until 2018 when experiments revealed that twisting two thin layers of a material can dramatically alter its electronic properties. The poster child for new and exciting behavior in moire systems is twisted bilayer graphene (TBG) which can transition between being a conductor to being an insulator simply by changing the twist angle between the layers. In this talk\, I will discuss my recent work on mathematically understanding the role of electron-electron interactions in the properties of TBG both from a numerical and a theoretical perspective. In particular\, I will discuss our recent result which fully characterizes the ground state manifold of TBG with electron-electron interactions in a simplified limit.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:ME Seminar Series: Allison M. Beese
DESCRIPTION:Join us in-person or on Zoom for the ME Seminar Series\n\nAdditive Manufacturing: Machine Learning\, Mechanics\, and Metallurgy\n\nAllison M. Beese – Professor of Materials Science and Engineering and Mechanical Engineering\; Associate Head for Diversity\, Equity\, Inclusion\, and Belonging\; Director\, Additive Manufacturing & Design Graduate Program\, Penn State University\n\nZoom Passcode: 690323\n\nAbstract:\nThe thermal histories in laser-based additive manufacturing (AM) of metal alloys results in microstructures that may contain phases\, grain morphologies\, or internal pores different from those seen in their conventionally processed counterparts. These microstructures dictate the resulting mechanical properties of the alloys\; thus\, to enable the adoption of AM for structural applications\, an understanding of the links between microstructure and deformation and/or fracture is required to reliably design against failure. In this talk\, I will present our work in three general areas: using in situ process monitoring to link processing signatures to defects and mechanical properties\, modeling the impact of internal defects on the multiaxial failure behavior of additively manufactured metallic materials\, and the development of a framework for designing functionally graded materials in which the composition is spatially tailored to impart site-specific properties within a 3D component.\n\nBio:\nAllison Beese is a professor in the Department of Materials Science and Engineering at Penn State University. She also serves as Director of Penn State’s Additive Manufacturing and Design graduate program and co-director of Penn State’s Additive Manufacturing center (CIMP-3D). Her multiscale mechanics of materials research group focuses on using experimental and computational methods to identify and model the links between microstructural features and deformation and failure of materials\, with a focus on additively manufactured metallic materials. She received her B.S. in Mechanical Engineering from Penn State\, and M.S. and Ph.D. in Mechanical Engineering from MIT.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:MICDE Seminar: Joshua Dolence\, Research Scientist\, Los Alamos National Lab
DESCRIPTION:Bio: Josh Dolence is a scientist in the Computational Physics & Methods Group at Los Alamos National Laboratory and a founding member of the LANL Michigan SPARC\, a permanent LANL presence at U-M in Ann Arbor. Before joining LANL\, he received a PhD in Astronomy from UIUC in 2011 and spent three years in Astrophysical Sciences at Princeton University where he worked in computational astrophysics\, studying topics like black hole accretion and supernovae. More recently\, he leads the Methods for Multiscale\, Multiphysics Accelerated Prediction project for LANL’s Advanced Simulation and Computing Program\, focusing efforts on enabling unprecedented fidelity and scale in modeling complex systems like high energy density physics experiments.\n\nAbstract: In many areas of computational science\, developing new\, state-of-the-art capabilities has become a high-cost\, risky proposition. The complexity and diversity of models\, methods\, algorithms\, and machines often lead to fundamental challenges in designing and building codes that enable advances in science and engineering. In fields like high energy density physics and astrophysics\, multi-physics simulations leveraging adaptive meshes\, particles\, and a variety of numerical methods are foundational to progress but difficult to realize performantly on ever-evolving high-performance computing platforms. In this talk\, I will present the Parthenon framework\, an open-source code base that aims to facilitate the development of highly adaptive multi-physics codes that are fast\, scalable\, and capable of leveraging modern platforms with both CPUs and GPUs. I will describe the basic principles behind its design and some of its most enabling features and highlight the ~10 downstream codes it already supports.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Molecular Color Centers
DESCRIPTION:The unique combination of atomic-scale tunability\, reproducibility\, and chemical specificity make paramagnetic molecules a paradigm-shifting category of materials for quantum applications. This capability has the potential to be transformative for developing a bespoke quantum ecosystem\, as\, for example\, the requirements for a node within a quantum communications network are distinct and potentially orthogonal to those for a quantum sensor. In one specific example of this approach\, we imbued molecular qubits with the same read-out approach as defect-based systems. Using transition metal chemistry\, we designed the ground state\, excited states and dynamics based on straightforward ligand field analysis. By coupling optical read-out with spatial precision\, we seamlessly integrated a new class of materials with existing read-out technology.
