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:CREES Exhibition. Threading the Needle: Vestiges of Colonialism and Femininity\, an installation by Gluklya
DESCRIPTION:Gluklya’s work is a powerful example of socially engaged art at the intersections of gender\, class\, and cultural identity. By focusing on experiences of female textile workers in Kyrgyzstan\, the artist explores the often-overlooked stories of women affected by Soviet and post-Soviet colonialism. \"Threading the Needle: Vestiges of Colonialism and Femininity\" retells their stories using a diverse range of media — film\, sculpture\, watercolors\, and felt tapestries. Unfolding the implications of economic and societal pressures on women\, Gluklya explores issues of poverty\, isolation\, and exploitation among the garment workers.\n   \n   Personal stories are woven into a broader social context — such as the legacy of the \"Likbez\" (liquidation of illiteracy) campaign among women in Central Asia during Soviet rule and entrenched patriarchal traditions\, like \"Ala Kachuu\" (bride-kidnapping). This dynamic — where colonization and modernization intertwine the individual lives they touch — raises questions about cultural identity and the ethical borders of decolonized research.\n\nThis exhibition was curated by CREES alumna Dianne Beal (BA REES '79). See more of her work here: https://www.diannebeal.com/curatorial.\n   \nIf there is anything we can do to make this event accessible to you\, please contact us at crees@umich.edu. Please be aware that advance notice is necessary as some accommodations may require more time for the university to arrange.

SUMMARY: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. A variety of embroidery patterns are used throughout Ukraine\; some stitches are universally known\, while others are region-specific. Ukrainian embroidered clothing is now officially celebrated with an annual Vyshyvanka Day observed throughout the world in May.\n\nTo see photos and read more about exhibited items\, visit https://myumi.ch/AZedA\n   \n   The embroideries and textiles exhibited are from the private collections of Arnie Klein\, Solomia Soroka\, Katerina Sirinyok-Dolgaryova\, and from the Ukrainian American Archives & Museum located in Hamtramck\, Michigan.\n   \n   The exhibit opens on September 5\, 2024\, in 1010 Weiser Hall\, 500 Church Street\, Ann Arbor.

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:Angkorian Homecoming
DESCRIPTION:Informed by her experience as a refugee\, Phung Huynh’s projects explore the complexities of displacement\, assimilation\, and cultural negotiation among Cambodian and Vietnamese refugees who have resettled in the United States. She creates detailed graphite portraits on pink donut boxes to highlight the stories of Southeast Asians who have survived war trauma and genocide. Huynh’s serigraph prints about Donut Kids foreground intergenerational gaps as well as bridging the refugee parent and American child through the narratives of Cambodian American children who were raised by donut shop owners in California. Huynh’s most recent work of drawings of Cambodian Buddhist statue heads and photographic prints of decapitated statue bodies on fabric addresses the repatriation of looted Cambodian antiquities in the context of challenging the legacy of colonialism\, unethical museum practices\, and the refugee’s desire to return home.

DESCRIPTION:Artist John Rizzo is exhibiting individual mixed-media sculptures that bridge across art\, design\, and craft. Using a combination of materials that are historically perceived as precious John's work distorts\, disrupts\, and re-contextualizes perceptions of materials and their values. His work is at once \, colorful \, playful \, layered and deeply self-reflective in its personal narrative.

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: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:Other:Leaves Under the Lens
DESCRIPTION:The leaf surface is a dynamic landscape where tiny\, specialized structures help plants interact with the world around them. Let’s bring this world into view! Join us for an exhibit that highlights the complex and often beautiful anatomy of leaves from the Matthaei collection. Plants throughout the conservatory will be paired with microscope photographs and micro-CT scans that illustrate the otherwise invisible structures that protect leaves from chewing insects\, absorb (or repel!) water\, and even recruit “bodyguards”. You won’t look at leaves the same way again! \n\nThis project is a collaboration between MBGNA and the Weber and Vasconcelos labs in the Department of Ecology and Evolutionary Biology\, led by PhD student Rosemary Glos.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:8-BIT Music Exhibit: The Gallery
DESCRIPTION:MORE INFO: https://sites.lsa.umich.edu/8bitmusic/ \n\nThe 8-Bit Music Exhibit is a week-long exploration of the creation of the nostalgic\, retro tunes many have grown up with and come to love\, as well as a showcase of how such music has been reclaimed and repurposed for continued existence in the modern world. The gallery plans to guide viewers through a history of 8-bit music\, its significance to media and video games of its time\, and notable figures that influenced the legacy of the niched genre. In the workshop\, participants will learn how modern chiptune artists create music from Game Boys and the production software LSDJ\, and have the opportunity to create music of their own design. Throughout the end of the exhibit week\, we will celebrate the historic and modern legacies of 8-bit music in a set of live performances produced by Norah\, a seasoned chiptune artist.\n\nOur goal in developing this exhibit is to highlight 8-bit/chiptune music as a unique form of digital art celebrated for its sound\, cultural significance\, and innovation. Throughout the lifespans of the original hardware supporting this music\, artists often faced limitations due to hardware constraints. These difficulties led to early video game industry composers inventing new techniques and methods for music creation that have evolved over time and remain influential today.\n\nTHANK YOU to our co-sponsors and partners for your support in the creation of this event!\n-> U-M LSA Technology Services Digital Scholarship (https://lsa.umich.edu/technology-services/services/research-tools/digital-scholarship.html)\n-> U-M Digital Studies Institute (https://www.digitalstudies.umich.edu/)\n-> U-M Arts Initiative (https://arts.umich.edu/arts-initiative)\n-> Neutral Zone (https://www.neutral-zone.org/event-list/2025/4/11/free-tech-workshop-chiptune-8-bit)\n-> Ann Arbor District Libraries (https://aadl.org/)\n-> Ypsilanti District Libraries (https://www.ypsilibrary.org/)\n-> Pinball Pete's in Ann Arbor (https://www.pinballpetes.org/copy-of-east-lansing-location)\n-> Video Game Music Club (VGMC) (https://maizepages.umich.edu/organization/vgmc)\n-> WolvSec (https://wolvsec.org/)\n-> LGBTQ+ Michigan (https://websites.umich.edu/~lgbtqmichigan/#)\n-> Ann Arbor Fighting Game Community at the University of Michigan (FGC) (https://maizepages.umich.edu/organization/a2fgc)

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:Two puzzles in eliciting MPCs in surveys
DESCRIPTION:Eliciting the marginal propensity to consume (MPC) in surveys has become an important source of data for both researchers and policymakers. This talk will report on survey experiments designed to study two puzzles that have emerged in this literature. The between-study puzzle is that average MPCs vary substantially across surveys. We show in a randomized survey experiment that elicited MPCs are quite sensitive to question wording. The within-study puzzle is that that elicited MPCs are poorly correlated with measures of liquidity (and other observables). We conducted text analysis of open-format follow-up questions to a standard MPC elicitation question. The results suggest that the within-study puzzle is primarily driven by nonstandard behaviors (such as mental accounting) rather than respondent misunderstanding of questions or other measurement problems.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:EEB Tuesday Seminar Series - Seasonal migration as a driver of life history trade-offs and genetic diversity in Nearctic-Neotropical passerines
DESCRIPTION:Evolutionary trade-offs between fecundity and survival are ubiquitous in evolution. In high-latitude seasonal environments\, most birds breed during resource-rich summers\, and migrate to lower-latitude environments during the winter to survive. However\, the trade-off between fecundity and survival appears to scale with migration distance: By migrating farther\, birds may gain higher survival benefits\, but in doing so\, they sacrifice time that they might have spent raising offspring. Longer migrations are thus associated with \"slower\" life histories (higher survival\, fewer offspring)\, but this apparently straightforward trade-off belies an intriguing underlying paradox: Slower life histories are typically associated with lower genetic diversity\, but in migratory birds\, there is evidence that longer migrations are positively correlated with genetic diversity\, possibly because they promote demographic stability. Nevertheless\, populations of long-distance migrants readily switch strategies\, implying that populations will move quickly toward new optima if migration’s survival benefits no longer outweigh its reproductive costs\, with unknown population genetic consequences. My dissertation will combine movement ecology and population genetics to assess the ways in which seasonal migration has mediated life history trade-offs and impacted genetic diversity within species\, with the goal of understanding how the risks of migration have translated to rewards over evolutionary timescales.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:Elliot S. Valenstein Distinguished Lecture | Synapse Specific Structural Plasticity: A Cellular Mechanism of Spaced Learning
DESCRIPTION:Synapses form trillions of connections in the brain. Long-term potentiation (LTP) is a cellular mechanism vital for learning that modifies the strength and structure of synapses. Three-dimensional electron microscopy reveals distinct pre- to post-synaptic arrangements: strong active zones (AZs) with tightly docked vesicles\, weak AZs with loose or non-docked vesicles\, and nascent zones (NZs) with a postsynaptic density but no presynaptic vesicles. LTP can be temporarily saturated preventing further increases in synaptic strength. I will discuss how NZ plasticity provides a time dependent and synapse-specific AZ expansion during LTP that ultimately encourages highly effective dendritic spine clusters regulated by the spine apparatus. I will also tell you why we have developed a new synaptopodin knockout rat system to investigate mechanisms of this process. We propose that the saturation of LTP protects recently formed memories and that the regrowth of nascent zones may account for the advantage of spaced over massed learning.\n\nAbout the speaker: Kristen Harris’s professional career started at Harvard Medical school where she rose to the rank of associate professor. She was the recruited as a full Professor to Boston Univ. where she helped establish their graduate program in experimental and computational neuroscience. She was recruited as a Georgia Research Alliance Eminent scholar to the Medical College of Georgia\, and in 2006 joined the Center for Learning and Memory at the University of Texas at Austin. She is renowned for her work on synapse structure and function pioneering three-dimensional reconstruction from serial section electron microscopy. Her lab had developed novel tools sharing them and data (synapseweb.clm.utexas.edu) that are widely used resources. She is the recipient of Sloan Research Fellowship\, Javits Merit Award\, Brain Research Foundation Fellowship\, and continuous funding for her lab\, including her current lead as PI on the NSF NeuroNex grant to investigate synaptic weight with 26 international and national coPIs. She is known for innovative teaching and presentations at conferences worldwide. She was recently elected to the National Academy of Sciences.\n\nThe talk will be followed by a reception with light refreshments.

DESCRIPTION:Attend in person or via Zoom: https://myumi.ch/Q61JX\n\nHow do states build essential market institutions when political or technical barriers hinder the establishment of the rule of law? In From Click to Boom\, Lizhi Liu suggests a digital solution: governments strategically outsourcing tasks of institutional development and enforcement to digital platforms—a process she calls “institutional outsourcing.” Through extensive interviews\, original surveys\, 28 million proprietary data points\, and a field experiment across three Chinese provinces\, Liu illustrates how China’s 800-million-user e-commerce market emerged from scratch and has profoundly transformed the nation’s economy and society.\n   \n   Lizhi Liu is an Assistant Professor in the McDonough School of Business and a faculty affiliate of the Department of Government at Georgetown University. Her research specializes in political economy and emerging markets. Her work has been published by American Economic Review: Insights\, Studies in Comparative International Development\, Minnesota Law Review\, Oxford University Press\, and Princeton University Press. In particular\, her research on the political economy of China's e-commerce market has garnered multiple research awards and grants. In 2021\, she was honored as one of Poets&Quants Top 50 Undergraduate Business Professors.\n   \nIf there is anything we can do to make this event accessible to you\, please contact us at chinese.studies@umich.edu. Please be aware that advance notice is necessary as some accommodations may require more time for the university to arrange.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:Sydney Gable Dissertation Defense
DESCRIPTION:Probabilistic seismic hazard assessment (PSHA) is a widely used statistical approach to estimating where and when earthquakes are likely to occur based on the statistics of past seismicity patterns. Key parameters like the magnitude-frequency distribution (MFD) and the b-value are integral to hazard forecasting as they express the proportion of small to large earthquakes in a catalog. However\, these statistical parameters are heavily influenced by the accuracy of earthquake magnitude estimates. This research addresses the critical need for high-quality magnitude measurements for small earthquakes by using relative amplitude methods. I then use these improved magnitude estimates to examine spatiotemporal variations in b-value for multiple earthquake sequences to improve our understanding of short-term seismic hazard forecasting. I first introduce a generalized methodology to determine relative magnitudes for earthquake sequences which is only dependent on relative amplitude differences between interlinked pairs of waveforms\, as well as methods for determining the b-value from the distribution of magnitude differences between successive events. In chapter 3\, I investigate the uncertainty of magnitude results produced from the relative magnitude method by conducting a parameter study on critical variables including thresholds for signal-to-noise ratio and cross-correlation\, frequency content filtering\, and seismic station selection. I show that signal-to-noise and cross-correlation thresholds limit the number of magnitudes that can be recalculated while bandpass filtering has the largest effect on the variability of magnitude results. In chapter 4\, I develop a set of coda-envelope moment magnitudes (MW) as a benchmark data set for the relative magnitude method\, allowing us to align our relative magnitude measurements to an absolute moment magnitude scale for small earthquakes. I produce moment magnitudes for approximately 80% of the events in the Delaware Basin and demonstrate the capabilities of this method to provide moment magnitude for small earthquakes in regional earthquake catalogs. In chapter 5\, I use an uncalibrated relative magnitude method to reevaluate magnitude estimates for the 2011 Prague\, Oklahoma earthquake sequence and calculate the temporal and spatial variations of b-value. I show that b-values during the aftershock sequence are consistently low which demonstrate that the aftershock distribution is skewed towards producing earthquakes of higher magnitude for at least 5 months following the mainshock. Additionally\, we show a trend of decreasing b-value along the Meeker-Prague fault as distance from the mainshock increases suggesting that tectonic stress may still exist in areas of low b-value.  Finally in chapter 6\, I apply the relative magnitude method to 6 foreshock sequences in southern California and focus on an in-depth exploration of the spatial and temporal variations in b-value and their sensitivity to parameters such as spatial binning and window length. I show that approximately half of the sequences exhibit a drop in b-value in the months or days prior to a mainshock. I also show that mainshocks frequently occur in areas of low foreshock b-value for single-fault or dense seismicity. This research demonstrates the importance of reliable and transportable magnitude estimation for small earthquakes. With these improved magnitude estimates\, we also gain valuable insights into the behavior of seismic sequences through analysis of the spatiotemporal variability of the MFD and b-value.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:EEB Student Thesis Defense - The Effects of Pteridium aquilinum (Bracken fern) on Understory Microclimate and Seedling Success in Temperate Forests
DESCRIPTION:Title: The Effects of Pteridium aquilinum (Bracken fern) on Understory Microclimate and Seedling Success in Temperate Forests\n\nAbstract: The understory influences biodiversity and ecological processes and are a defining element of forest ecosystems\, as they can contain up to 90% of plant species in temperate forests. Bracken Fern (Pteridium aquilinum) often dominates forest understory communities globally\, including those in Northern Michigan. Dominant understory species affect ecosystems proportional to their high abundance. To explore how bracken fern impacts microclimate\, plant diversity\, and seedling success\, I asked two overarching questions: (1) how does natural variation in density of a dominant species impact understory abiotic conditions and plant diversity? (2) How does the cover and removal of a dominant species affect seedling survival and success? I established a bracken fern removal experiment in three forests at the University of Michigan Biological Station (UMBS). I paired plots where the bracken fern cover was left intact (natural) with plots where the bracken fern cover was removed (removal)\, across a gradient of bracken fern densities (0\, 25\, 50\, 75 100% cover). Soil moisture and temperature varied across the gradient of bracken fern density in natural plots. At peak growing season\, soil moisture variation was the highest in 50% natural plots. We did not detect a significant difference in seedling survival across the gradient of bracken fern density in either natural or removal plots. Seedling leaf area\, specific leaf area\, and leaf carbon-to-nitrogen ratios were not significantly affected by the removals. In 75% natural plots exclusively\, removal had a negative effect on seedling green leaf % N. Our results highlight that dominant understory species differentially influence understory microclimate and seedling traits in temperate forests\, but their impact is not proportional to cover. Instead\, bracken fern cover may be both facilitative and inhibitory for seedling growth and establishment\, showcasing the dynamic role of dominant species in temperate forests.\n\nThis is a hybrid event. \nJoin remotely: https://umich.zoom.us/j/93842698134\nMeeting ID: 938 4269 8134

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Cohen-Macaulay Simplicial Complexes
DESCRIPTION:The Stanley-Reisner correspondence relates (non) faces of a simplicial complex with monomial ideals of a polynomial ring\, yielding a number of surprising connections between the combinatorics of simplicial complexes and commutative algebra. After introducing the relevant definitions and exploring some examples\, we’ll discuss Reisner’s criterion\, a theorem that equates Cohen-Macaulay-ness of a certain ring with the vanishing of homology of subcomplexes of the simplicial complex.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:EEB Tuesday Seminar Series - Soil mosaics and ant-earthworm functional domains within the coffee agroecosystem of Puerto Rico
DESCRIPTION:Ants and earthworms are widely recognized as important soil ecosystem engineers that contribute to various ecosystem processes such as nutrient cycling\, production of organic matter\, and soil formation\, and are thus important for maintaining healthy soils within agroecosystems. Addressing the dominant ant and earthworm taxa on Puerto Rican coffee farms\, I propose the existence of a “soil mosaic” of contrasting soil functional domains\, driven by the ant Solenopsis invicta exerting top-down control on populations of the earthworm Pontoscolex corethrurus\, which then finds refuge elsewhere\, forming discrete areas of contrasting influence on soils by each organism. These contrasting effects then create a mosaic of soil patches of differing quality\, which will ultimately affect crop production within the coffee agroecosystem. Through this work I aim to broaden the current understanding of the ecological relationship between ants and earthworms and their shared functional impact on the generation and maintenance of soil structure\, fertility\, and plant growth within the coffee agroecosystem.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:CM-AMO Seminar | Soft condensed matter spectroscopy in the terahertz range
DESCRIPTION:Terahertz spectroscopy has emerged as a powerful tool for studies of condensed matter systems\, complementary to other more widespread techniques such as x-ray diffraction or infrared spectroscopy. The use of terahertz radiation\, lying in the spectral range 0.1-10 THz (3-330 cm^{-1})\, can reveal structural and dynamical information that is not easily accessible by other means.Terahertz vibrational modes are often mediators of technologically important chemical reactions such as the gas capture reaction in clathrates or exchange reactions in metal-organic frameworks. This presentation will review several spectroscopic studies which illustrate some of the ways in which terahertz spectroscopy is being used to study such soft materials.\n\nBio:\nDr. Mittleman received his B.S. in physics from the Massachusetts Institute of Technology in 1988\, and his M.S. in 1990 and Ph.D. in 1994\, both in physics from the University of California\, Berkeley. He then joined AT&amp\;T Bell Laboratories as a post-doctoral member of the technical staff\, where he built one of the early terahertz time-domain spectrometers for material spectroscopy and imaging. Dr. Mittleman joined the ECE Department at Rice University in September 1996. In 2015\, he moved to the School of Engineering at Brown University. His research interests involve the science and technology of terahertz radiation. He is a Fellow of the OSA\, the APS\, and the IEEE\, and a Humboldt Research Award winner\, and in 2023-2025 he is a Mercator Fellow of the Deutsche Forschungsgemeinschaft. He has recently completed a three-year term as Chair of the International Society for Infrared Millimeter and Terahertz Waves.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Colloquim Seminar: Stable functions on groups
DESCRIPTION:In 2011\, Malliaris and Shelah proved a strong form of Szemeredi's regularity lemma for the class of \"stable graphs\"\, which are graphs omitting a certain special subgraph called a \"half-graph\".  Using tools from additive combinatorics\, Terry and Wolf proved a group theoretic analogue of this result in which finite graphs are replaced by subsets of finite abelian groups. A suitable generalization to arbitrary finite groups was then proved by myself\, Pillay\, and Terry using model theoretic methods. This talk will focus on an analytic analogue of stability defined for bounded functions on groups. Roughly speaking\, the main result of the talk says that if G is amenable\, then any stable function on G is almost constant on all translates of a unitary Bohr set in G of bounded complexity. I will also discuss several applications related to Bogolyubobv's Lemma\, the Croot-Sisask Lemma\, and Folner's Theorem.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:EHAP Lecture Series: Alpha Male Replacements in White-Faced Capuchins
DESCRIPTION:In primates\, male reproductive success is often facilitated by dominance rank. While we have a good understanding of the ultimate benefits that dominance rank provides males\, we know less about how male physiology and phenotypes change as males undergo changes in dominance rank. In this seminar\, I will discuss our ongoing research on the hormonal\, morphological\, olfactory\, and behavioral correlates of male rank acquisition in white faced-capuchins. Changes in male dominance rank are also associated with high rates of infanticide\, which produces extreme sexual conflict. Females have evolved strategies to reduce the occurrence and/or costs of infanticide to female reproductive success. I will discuss our exploration of one potential female strategy\, the Bruce effect - the termination of pregnancy in response to exposure to non-sire males.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:Nam Center Colloquium Series | Korean Waves before the Wave
DESCRIPTION:During the second half of the 20th Century\, large portions of the world encountered three significant waves of South Korean cultural export. Prior to the massively successful Korean popular media\, consumer products\, and technology that are globally recognized today\, Tae Kwon Do masters\, Protestant missionaries\, and classical musicians began representing South Korea to other countries. These specifically post-war domains of Korean culture manifest as highly specialized forms of learned expertise and authority\, which passed through explicitly defined and sustained social relations. Unlike the mediatized movement of cultural commodities or the rapid rise and fall of mass consumer trends\, the valorized cultural forms of these earlier waves traveled through face-to-face communication and embodied interaction in relatively intimate settings. This presentation draws out some sociopolitical connections among these three earlier waves of Korean cultural export in order to situate the broader phenomenon within a history of migration\, transnational education\, and the Cold War.\n   \n   Nicholas Harkness is the Modern Korean Economy and Society Professor of Anthropology and Director of the Korea Institute at Harvard University. His long-term ethnographic research in South Korea has focused on language\, music\, and religion within the context of Korea’s massive engagement with Protestant Christianity in the 20th and 21st Centuries.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:The Radical Lives of Anaerobes and How to Fight Them
DESCRIPTION:Pathogenic bacteria that infect the gastrointestinal and respiratory tract form biofilms that are largely anaerobic\, modulating their metabolic lifestyle and virulence. Many of these microbes utilize acetate fermentation via the enzyme pyruvate formate lyase (PFL)\, which catalyzes the production of acetyl-CoA and formate from pyruvate via a radical mechanism\, enabling additional ATP production and the de novo synthesis of proteins and nucleic acids. We have investigated the mechanism of PFL via mechanism-based inhibitors to reveal the essential role of two cysteine thiyl radicals in catalysis and estimate their reactivity for the first time. Additionally\, we have demonstrated the role of nitric oxide (NO) as an irreversible inhibitor of they glycyl radical enzyme PFL as well as glycyl radical enzymes as a class and their radical S-adenosylmethionine-dependent activases via the production of dinitrosyl iron complexes. These results set the stage for the development of mechanism-based inhibitors of PFL and other glycyl radical enzymes and provide a biochemically informed approach to narrow-spectrum site-specific antibiotic development for the treatment of gastrointestinal and pulmonary disease.

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:CREES Exhibition. Threading the Needle: Vestiges of Colonialism and Femininity\, an installation by Gluklya
DESCRIPTION:Gluklya’s work is a powerful example of socially engaged art at the intersections of gender\, class\, and cultural identity. By focusing on experiences of female textile workers in Kyrgyzstan\, the artist explores the often-overlooked stories of women affected by Soviet and post-Soviet colonialism. \"Threading the Needle: Vestiges of Colonialism and Femininity\" retells their stories using a diverse range of media — film\, sculpture\, watercolors\, and felt tapestries. Unfolding the implications of economic and societal pressures on women\, Gluklya explores issues of poverty\, isolation\, and exploitation among the garment workers.\n   \n   Personal stories are woven into a broader social context — such as the legacy of the \"Likbez\" (liquidation of illiteracy) campaign among women in Central Asia during Soviet rule and entrenched patriarchal traditions\, like \"Ala Kachuu\" (bride-kidnapping). This dynamic — where colonization and modernization intertwine the individual lives they touch — raises questions about cultural identity and the ethical borders of decolonized research.\n\nThis exhibition was curated by CREES alumna Dianne Beal (BA REES '79). See more of her work here: https://www.diannebeal.com/curatorial.\n   \nIf there is anything we can do to make this event accessible to you\, please contact us at crees@umich.edu. Please be aware that advance notice is necessary as some accommodations may require more time for the university to arrange.

SUMMARY: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.

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:Angkorian Homecoming
DESCRIPTION:Informed by her experience as a refugee\, Phung Huynh’s projects explore the complexities of displacement\, assimilation\, and cultural negotiation among Cambodian and Vietnamese refugees who have resettled in the United States. She creates detailed graphite portraits on pink donut boxes to highlight the stories of Southeast Asians who have survived war trauma and genocide. Huynh’s serigraph prints about Donut Kids foreground intergenerational gaps as well as bridging the refugee parent and American child through the narratives of Cambodian American children who were raised by donut shop owners in California. Huynh’s most recent work of drawings of Cambodian Buddhist statue heads and photographic prints of decapitated statue bodies on fabric addresses the repatriation of looted Cambodian antiquities in the context of challenging the legacy of colonialism\, unethical museum practices\, and the refugee’s desire to return home.

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: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:Other:Leaves Under the Lens
DESCRIPTION:The leaf surface is a dynamic landscape where tiny\, specialized structures help plants interact with the world around them. Let’s bring this world into view! Join us for an exhibit that highlights the complex and often beautiful anatomy of leaves from the Matthaei collection. Plants throughout the conservatory will be paired with microscope photographs and micro-CT scans that illustrate the otherwise invisible structures that protect leaves from chewing insects\, absorb (or repel!) water\, and even recruit “bodyguards”. You won’t look at leaves the same way again! \n\nThis project is a collaboration between MBGNA and the Weber and Vasconcelos labs in the Department of Ecology and Evolutionary Biology\, led by PhD student Rosemary Glos.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:8-BIT Music Exhibit: The Gallery
DESCRIPTION:MORE INFO: https://sites.lsa.umich.edu/8bitmusic/ \n\nThe 8-Bit Music Exhibit is a week-long exploration of the creation of the nostalgic\, retro tunes many have grown up with and come to love\, as well as a showcase of how such music has been reclaimed and repurposed for continued existence in the modern world. The gallery plans to guide viewers through a history of 8-bit music\, its significance to media and video games of its time\, and notable figures that influenced the legacy of the niched genre. In the workshop\, participants will learn how modern chiptune artists create music from Game Boys and the production software LSDJ\, and have the opportunity to create music of their own design. Throughout the end of the exhibit week\, we will celebrate the historic and modern legacies of 8-bit music in a set of live performances produced by Norah\, a seasoned chiptune artist.\n\nOur goal in developing this exhibit is to highlight 8-bit/chiptune music as a unique form of digital art celebrated for its sound\, cultural significance\, and innovation. Throughout the lifespans of the original hardware supporting this music\, artists often faced limitations due to hardware constraints. These difficulties led to early video game industry composers inventing new techniques and methods for music creation that have evolved over time and remain influential today.\n\nTHANK YOU to our co-sponsors and partners for your support in the creation of this event!\n-> U-M LSA Technology Services Digital Scholarship (https://lsa.umich.edu/technology-services/services/research-tools/digital-scholarship.html)\n-> U-M Digital Studies Institute (https://www.digitalstudies.umich.edu/)\n-> U-M Arts Initiative (https://arts.umich.edu/arts-initiative)\n-> Neutral Zone (https://www.neutral-zone.org/event-list/2025/4/11/free-tech-workshop-chiptune-8-bit)\n-> Ann Arbor District Libraries (https://aadl.org/)\n-> Ypsilanti District Libraries (https://www.ypsilibrary.org/)\n-> Pinball Pete's in Ann Arbor (https://www.pinballpetes.org/copy-of-east-lansing-location)\n-> Video Game Music Club (VGMC) (https://maizepages.umich.edu/organization/vgmc)\n-> WolvSec (https://wolvsec.org/)\n-> LGBTQ+ Michigan (https://websites.umich.edu/~lgbtqmichigan/#)\n-> Ann Arbor Fighting Game Community at the University of Michigan (FGC) (https://maizepages.umich.edu/organization/a2fgc)

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:Exhibition:Michelle Hinojosa: Logcabins
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:Lecture / Discussion:Brown Bag Seminar |  Effective $AdS_3/CFT_2$\; Life is simpler without black holes
DESCRIPTION:The holographic dual to string theory in $AdS_3 x N$ has always been a fundamental question in high-energy theoretical physics. To this day\, we don't know the answer to this question in full generality. In this talk\, I'll propose an effective holographic dual to type IIB string theory in $AdS_3 x N$ in the presence of pure NS-NS flux. The dual boundary CFT takes the form of a p-fold symmetric product of $(R_\phi \times N)$ deformed by a $\phi$-dependent $Z_2$-twisted marginal operator. I'll explain how an exact worldsheet computation allows us to identify this marginal operator. \n\nWhen the radius of $AdS_3$\, $R_{ads}$\, is sub-stringy\, the CFT spectrum doesn't contain neither a normalizable vacuum nor the BTZ black hole states. The proposed holographic duality in this case is an exact one. On the other hand\, when $R_{ads}/l_s >1$\, the full boundary CFT does have a normalizable vacuum and the BTZ black hole states at high energies. The proposed duality in this case is an effective one and holds only for the perturbative string states in the spectrum. Finally\, I'll quote some of the checks that have been performed to test this duality.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:8-BIT Music Exhibit: The Workshop
DESCRIPTION:MORE INFO: https://sites.lsa.umich.edu/8bitmusic/\nRSVP is required. RSVP HERE: https://sessions.studentlife.umich.edu/track/event/session/92827\n\nIN THE WORKSHOP\, participants will learn how modern chiptune artists create music from Game Boys and the production software LSDJ\, and have the opportunity to create music of their own design. This is one featured event of the larger 8-Bit Music Exhibit.\n\nThe 8-Bit Music Exhibit is a week-long exploration of the creation of the nostalgic\, retro tunes many have grown up with and come to love\, as well as a showcase of how such music has been reclaimed and repurposed for continued existence in the modern world. \n\nOur goal in developing this exhibit is to highlight 8-bit/chiptune music as a unique form of digital art celebrated for its sound\, cultural significance\, and innovation. Throughout the lifespans of the original hardware supporting this music\, artists often faced limitations due to hardware constraints. These difficulties led to early video game industry composers inventing new techniques and methods for music creation that have evolved over time and remain influential today.\n\nTHANK YOU to our co-sponsors and partners for your support in the creation of this event!\n-> U-M LSA Technology Services Digital Scholarship (https://lsa.umich.edu/technology-services/services/research-tools/digital-scholarship.html)\n-> U-M Digital Studies Institute (https://www.digitalstudies.umich.edu/)\n-> U-M Arts Initiative (https://arts.umich.edu/arts-initiative)\n-> Neutral Zone (https://www.neutral-zone.org/event-list/2025/4/11/free-tech-workshop-chiptune-8-bit)\n-> Ann Arbor District Libraries (https://aadl.org/)\n-> Ypsilanti District Libraries (https://www.ypsilibrary.org/)\n-> Pinball Pete's in Ann Arbor (https://www.pinballpetes.org/copy-of-east-lansing-location)\n-> Video Game Music Club (VGMC) (https://maizepages.umich.edu/organization/vgmc)\n-> WolvSec (https://wolvsec.org/)\n-> LGBTQ+ Michigan (https://websites.umich.edu/~lgbtqmichigan/#)\n-> Ann Arbor Fighting Game Community at the University of Michigan (FGC) (https://maizepages.umich.edu/organization/a2fgc)

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Interdisciplinary QC-CM Seminar | Molecular orbitals in Quantum Magnets and High-temperature Superconductors
DESCRIPTION:Molecular orbitals (MOs) in inorganic crystalline solids arise as a peculiar result of an intricate interplay between structural geometry\, favourable hierarchies of hybridization pathways\, and strong local electronic correlations. When involved in low-energy physics\, MOs often give rise to intriguing physical effects\, expanding experimentally accessible regions of quantum phase diagrams and providing new ways to tune material properties. In this talk\, I will present two examples of quantum MO systems: (1) Ti_4 MnBi_2\, a one dimensional metallic spin-½ system\, and (2) La_3 Ni_2 O_7\, a member of the most recently discovered Ni-based family of high-temperature superconductors. Using these examples\, I will attempt to not only illustrate the rich physics of MOs in action but also highlight the challenges that such systems pose at various levels of condensed matter theory\, from ab initio electronic structure calculations to model-based and analytical approaches.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Learning Seminar in Algebraic Combinatorics: A Brief History of Intersection Theory (second lecture)
DESCRIPTION:Early remarkable discoveries in intersection theory go back to\n1849\, when algebraic geometry as we know it was just beginning.  \nSchubert (and others) during the next half century found\nmany amazing formulas\, but without solid proofs or foundations.  \nHilbert's 15th problem asked for such foundations.  Providing\nthem involved developments in topology\, algebra\, and algebraic\ngeometry\, although the required rigor remained a challenge for\nsome time.  \n\nMy aim is to emphasize some of the less well known parts of this\nstory\, as well as to point out some of the common misconceptions.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Minimum Wages and Workplace Injuries with Michael Davies and R Jisung Park
DESCRIPTION:Do minimum wage changes affect workplace health and safety? Using the universe of workers' compensation claims in California over 2000-2019\, we estimate whether minimum wage shocks affect the rate of workplace injuries. Our identification exploits both geographic variation in state- and city-level minimum wages and local occupation-level variation in exposure to minimum wage changes. We find that a 10% increase in the minimum wage increases the injury rate by 11% in an occupation-metro area labor market which is fully exposed to the minimum wage increase. Our results imply an elasticity of the workplace injury rate to minimum-wage-induced wage changes of 1.4. We find particularly large effects on injuries relating to cumulative physical strain\, suggesting that employers respond to minimum wage increases by intensifying the pace of work\, which in turn increases injury risk. A back-of-the-envelope calculation suggests that the increase in injury risk offsets around 10% of the welfare improvement workers see as a result of higher wages.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Department Colloquium | Hunting for Ghosts with Rare Isotope Doped Advanced Sensors
DESCRIPTION:Nuclear beta and electron capture (EC) decay serve as sensitive probes of the structure and symmetries at the microscopic scale of our Universe. As such\, precision measurements of the final-state products in these processes can be used as powerful laboratories to search for new physics from the meV to TeV scale\, as well as addressing fundamental questions of quantum mechanics at the subatomic scale. Significant advances in “rare isotope” availability and quality\, coupled with decades of sensing technique development from the AMO community have led us into a new era of fundamental tests of nature using unstable nuclei. For the past few years\, we have taken the approach of embedding radioisotopes in thin-film superconducting tunnel junctions (STJs) to precisely measure the recoiling atom that gets an eV-scale “kick” from the neutrino following EC decay. These recoils are encoded with the fundamental quantum information of the neutrino and decay process\, as well as carrying unique signatures of weakly coupled beyond standard model (BSM) physics\; including neutrino mass\, exotic weak currents\, and potential “dark” particles created within the energy-window of the decay. These measurements provide a complimentary and (crucially) model-independent portal to the dark sector with sensitivities that push towards synergy between laboratory and cosmological probes. In this talk\, I will discuss the broad program we have developed to provide leading limits in these areas as well as the technological advances across several sub-disciplines of science required to enable this work\, including subatomic physics\, quantum engineering\, atomic theory\, and materials science. Finally\, I will discuss future prospects of extending this work using macroscopic amounts of harvested exotic atoms from the Facility for Rare Isotope Beams (FRIB) in optically levitated nanospheres for direct momentum measurements of the decay recoils.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Student Number Theory: The Fontaine-Wintenberger theorem
DESCRIPTION:Abstract: Let K be a perfectoid field of mixed characteristic (0\, p). Then\, one can form the tilt K^♭ of K\, which is a perfectoid field of characteristic p. The Fontaine-Wintenberger theorem says that the absolute Galois group of K and the absolute Galois group of K^♭ are isomorphic. In this talk\, we will define the tilting functor and construct its inverse using the Witt vectors. Then\, we will see a more conceptual proof using the almost purity theorem. This proof also motivated Scholze to define perfectoid algebras.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:MIPSE Seminar | RF Plasma Cathodes and Other Research Activities in the Plasma Propulsion Group at NRL
DESCRIPTION:Abstract:\nThis talk discusses recent work on RF plasma cathodes\, propellant agnostic electron sources for electric propulsion systems that enable new deep space exploration mission architectures such as in-situ resource utilization. We develop the fundamental theory for these devices and demonstrate its effectiveness at determining I-V characteristics and performance. From our measurements and model\, we project thruster performance and discuss the consequences for space exploration. Then we dive into non-ideal behavior that can be exhibited in these cathodes including sheath expansion and mode transitions. The remainder of the discussion will overview other plasma-related research activities in the NRL propulsion group.\n\nAbout the Speaker: \nDr. Marcel Georgin is an Aerospace Engineer at the Naval Research Laboratory in Washington\, D.C. He earned his bachelor’s degree in physics from McGill University in Montreal\, Canada\, and his Ph.D. in applied physics from the University of Michigan where he studied plasma instabilities in electron sources for electric propulsion systems. His research interests are at the intersection of plasma physics and engineering\, with a strong focus on space propulsion.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Algebraic Geometry Seminar:  Nontautological Cycles on Moduli Spaces of Smooth Curves
DESCRIPTION:The cohomology of the moduli space of stable curves has been widely studied\, but in general\, understanding the full cohomology ring of this space is too much to ask.  Instead\, one generally settles for studying the tautological ring\, a subring of the cohomology that is simultaneously tractable to study and yet rich enough to contain most cohomology classes of geometric interest.  The first known example of an algebraic cohomology class that is *not* tautological was discovered by Graber and Pandharipande\, in work that was later significantly generalized by van Zelm to produce an infinite family of non-tautological classes on the moduli space of stable curves.  A similar study can be undertaken on the moduli space of smooth curves\, but in this case\, almost no non-tautological classes were previously known. I will report on joint work with V. Arena\, S. Canning\, R. Haburcak\, A. Li\, S.C. Mok\, and C. Tamborini (from the 2023 AGNES Summer School)\, in which we produce non-tautological algebraic classes on the moduli space of smooth curves in an infinite family of cases\, including on M_g for all g>15.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Adaptive Optimal Market Making Strategies with Inventory Liquidation Cost
DESCRIPTION:A novel high-frequency market-making approach in discrete time is proposed that admits closed-form solutions. By taking advantage of demand functions that are linear in the quoted bid and ask spreads with random coefficients\, we model the variability of the partial filling of limit orders posted in a limit order book (LOB). The most important feature of our optimal placement strategy is that it can react or adapt to the behavior of market orders online. Using LOB data\, we train our model and reproduce the anticipated final profit and loss of the optimal strategy on a given testing date using real LOB data. Our adaptive optimal strategies outperform the non-adaptive strategy and those that quote limit orders at a fixed distance from the midprice. We proceed to explore other extensions of the proposed approach.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:Center for Emerging Democracies Book Talk. Policing the Revolution: The Transformation of Security and Violence in Venezuela during Chavismo
DESCRIPTION:Attend in person or via Zoom. Zoom registration at   https://myumi.ch/XGe2A\n\nSince the mid-2000s Venezuela has been ranked one of the most violent countries in the world as homicides and police violence skyrocketed. Much has been written about the country’s turn to Chavismo but scholarship has ignored what will perhaps be the revolution’s most important legacy: how Chavista policies transformed coercive power and the security landscape.\n   \nIn Policing the Revolution\, Rebecca Hanson provides the first in-depth analysis of policing and security policies during the Bolivarian Revolution in Venezuela\, focusing on the experiences of three groups: police officers\, police reformers\, and residents of neighborhoods most affected by violence. Drawing on ethnographic\, interview\, and survey research collected over ten years\, she analyzes how security policies within the context of the pink tide and later turn to authoritarianism contributed to the expansion of lateral violence and the pluralization of non-state armed actors. Far from the always-already authoritarian project proposed by many scholars and pundits\, Hanson shows that the Bolivarian Revolution was defined by highly contested and contrasting visions of security that resulted in a fragmented and inconsistent ordering of state and society. Moreover\, by pairing the vantage point of street-level police officers with that of ordinary barrio residents\, she provides a unique analysis of how insecurity during revolution was experienced “from below.”\n\nIf there is anything we can do to make this event accessible to you\, please contact us. Please be aware that advance notice is necessary as some accommodations may require more time for the university to arrange.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:RTG Seminar on Geometry\, Dynamics and Topology:  Selberg\, Ihara and Berkovich
DESCRIPTION:We use the Selberg zeta function to study the limit behavior of resonances of a degenerating family of Kleinian Schottky groups. We prove that\, after a suitable rescaling\, the Selberg zeta functions converge to the Ihara zeta function of a limiting finite graph associated with the relevant non-Archimedean Schottky group acting on the Berkovich projective line. Moreover\, our techniques can be used to obtain effective statements. One key idea is to introduce an intermediate zeta function that captures Archimedean and non-Archimedean information (while the Selberg resp. Ihara zeta function concerns only Archimedean resp. non-Archimedean properties). This is a joint work with Jialun Li\, Carlos Matheus\, and Zhongkai Tao.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:The Orren C. Mohler Prize Lecture
DESCRIPTION:\"Simulated Universes: Origin and Fate of Our Milky Way\"\n\nGalaxies contain hundreds of billions of stars and display a wide variety of shapes and sizes. But these cosmic lighthouses are just markers for even much vaster structures lying underneath. In fact\, astrophysicists are convinced that the vast majority of the energy and matter content of the Universe does not consist of ordinary matter\, but is dominated by enigmatic dark matter and dark energy components. Supercomputer simulations play a crucial role in testing this seemingly daring cosmological hypothesis. The astonishing performance of today's supercomputers makes it possible to link the relatively simple initial conditions left by the Big Bang directly with the complex\, developed state of the present universe and thus trace the life of galaxies in detail. They show how a cosmic network of dark matter is created over 13 billion years\, at the intersections of which structures of various sizes form\, from small dwarf galaxies to enormous galaxy clusters. The supercomputers also make predictions about the specific formation history of the Milky Way\, and how it should develop in the future. At the same time\, the simulations can also help us to explain extreme phenomena such as the effect of supermassive black holes on the cosmic evolution of galaxies.

SUMMARY:Performance:Les Arts Florissants
DESCRIPTION:When first published in 1725\, nobody could imagine that Vivaldi’s Four Seasons would become some of the most frequently-heard music of all time. This program frames the iconic concertos in a new light\, inviting questions about the fleeting cyclical nature of our existence\, our relationship with nature\, and the eternal renewal of earth’s cycles\, now being modified by climate change. The program starts with Monteverdi\, a composer born 100 years before Vivaldi\, and continues with Uccellini and Geminiani before turning into a joyful celebration of Vivaldi’s major opus three centuries after it was composed.\n\nFeatured Artist:\nThéotime Langlois de Swarte\, violin\n\nPROGRAM\nClaudio Monteverdi Adoramus te\, SV 289\nAntonio Vivaldi Concerto for strings and basso continuo\, RV 129 (“Madrigalesco”)\nMarco Uccellini Bergamasca\nVivaldi Concerto in d minor\, RV 813\nFrancesco Geminiani Concerto No. 12 in d minor “La Folia” (after Corelli)\nVivaldi Concerto in E Major\, Op. 8\, No. 1\, RV 269 (“Spring”)\nVivaldi Concerto in g minor\, Op. 8\, No. 2\, RV 315 (“Summer”)\nVivaldi Overture to La fida ninfa (“The Faithful Nymph”)\, RV 714\nVivaldi Concerto in F Major\, Op. 8\, No. 3\, RV 293 (“Autumn”)\nVivaldi Grave from Violin Concerto in B-flat Major\, RV 370\nVivaldi Concerto in f minor\, Op. 8\, No. 4\, RV 297 (“Winter”)

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:CREES Exhibition. Threading the Needle: Vestiges of Colonialism and Femininity\, an installation by Gluklya
DESCRIPTION:Gluklya’s work is a powerful example of socially engaged art at the intersections of gender\, class\, and cultural identity. By focusing on experiences of female textile workers in Kyrgyzstan\, the artist explores the often-overlooked stories of women affected by Soviet and post-Soviet colonialism. \"Threading the Needle: Vestiges of Colonialism and Femininity\" retells their stories using a diverse range of media — film\, sculpture\, watercolors\, and felt tapestries. Unfolding the implications of economic and societal pressures on women\, Gluklya explores issues of poverty\, isolation\, and exploitation among the garment workers.\n   \n   Personal stories are woven into a broader social context — such as the legacy of the \"Likbez\" (liquidation of illiteracy) campaign among women in Central Asia during Soviet rule and entrenched patriarchal traditions\, like \"Ala Kachuu\" (bride-kidnapping). This dynamic — where colonization and modernization intertwine the individual lives they touch — raises questions about cultural identity and the ethical borders of decolonized research.\n\nThis exhibition was curated by CREES alumna Dianne Beal (BA REES '79). See more of her work here: https://www.diannebeal.com/curatorial.\n   \nIf there is anything we can do to make this event accessible to you\, please contact us at crees@umich.edu. Please be aware that advance notice is necessary as some accommodations may require more time for the university to arrange.

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:Angkorian Homecoming
DESCRIPTION:Informed by her experience as a refugee\, Phung Huynh’s projects explore the complexities of displacement\, assimilation\, and cultural negotiation among Cambodian and Vietnamese refugees who have resettled in the United States. She creates detailed graphite portraits on pink donut boxes to highlight the stories of Southeast Asians who have survived war trauma and genocide. Huynh’s serigraph prints about Donut Kids foreground intergenerational gaps as well as bridging the refugee parent and American child through the narratives of Cambodian American children who were raised by donut shop owners in California. Huynh’s most recent work of drawings of Cambodian Buddhist statue heads and photographic prints of decapitated statue bodies on fabric addresses the repatriation of looted Cambodian antiquities in the context of challenging the legacy of colonialism\, unethical museum practices\, and the refugee’s desire to return home.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Breaking with Tradition
DESCRIPTION:Artist John Rizzo is exhibiting individual mixed-media sculptures that bridge across art\, design\, and craft. Using a combination of materials that are historically perceived as precious John's work distorts\, disrupts\, and re-contextualizes perceptions of materials and their values. His work is at once \, colorful \, playful \, layered and deeply self-reflective in its personal narrative.

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: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: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
