SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:Manuscript Studies Interest Group | Viewing and Discussion of Islamic Manuscripts
DESCRIPTION:The Manuscript Studies Interest Group brings together faculty\, graduate students\, librarians/curators\, fellows/visiting scholars\, and anyone else at U-M interested in manuscript studies or engaged in research on manuscripts. Manuscript cultures are central to premodern societies. Different manuscript formats and material substrates connect texts\, images\, languages\, reading practices\, and ritual performances\, which in a university setting are often split across multiple departments and fields. Having this broad framework will enable the interest group to explore collaboration across disciplines and facilitate research among different manuscript traditions through an object-centered approach.\n\nIn monthly meetings during the Fall and Winter terms\, participants will present on current research interests as well as give more general overviews of particular manuscript cultures for informal discussion and exchange. They will also occasionally discuss key readings which have shaped manuscript studies in specific areas or in broader ways. In addition\, the interest group hopes to be able to explore manuscript collections in person together\, both in and around Ann Arbor as well as further afield. We hope to invite an external speaker once a year to connect the interest group with scholars beyond U-M.\n\nOpen to U-M faculty\, staff\, and graduate students only. Organized by Tina Bawden (History of Art) and Trent Walker (Asian Languages & Cultures). Please contact the group organizers for location.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:AIM Seminar: Growth\, size\, and precision in living matter
DESCRIPTION:One of the enduring mysteries of biology is how cells and organs know to stop growing at the correct size (and how those sizes are coordinated so that animals can retain their correct proportions).  Here\, I will discuss several studies that\, in different ways\, address the physics of how size is set and how precisely it can be controlled.  First\, I will introduce a simple phenomenological framework that allows one to consider tradeoffs between noise in the actual growth process and in a system's internal measurement of its own size.  I will show how this framework places a bound on the size precision of individual bacterial cells and analyze data from recent experiments to show that\, at least in some circumstances\, the measured precision is very near this bound.  Then\, I will extend the framework to consider how sizes can be coordinated by chemical signals\, for example between organs like the left and right wings of a fruit fly\, and show that theory severely limits how well this can be done.  Finally\, I will study the noisy dynamics of growth of multi-cellular tissues in the presence of various feedback laws\, finding that only certain forms of mechanical feedback can specify a unique organ size.  Time permitting\, I will introduce a formalism to describe the elasticity of growing objects with strong connections to differential geometry and observe that growing tissues tend to show power law density correlations\, reminiscent of those also observed in models of the early universe.

SUMMARY:Reception / Open House:Book Launch with Dr. Bethany Hughes
DESCRIPTION:Join us for a reception celebrating the release of Dr. Bethany Hughes' first book! \n\nRedface unearths the history of the theatrical phenomenon of redface in nineteenth- and twentieth-century America. Like blackface\, redface was used to racialize Indigenous peoples and nations\, and even more crucially\, exclude them from full citizenship in the United States. Arguing that redface is more than just the costumes or makeup an actor wears\, Bethany Hughes contends that it is a collaborative\, curatorial process through which artists and audiences make certain bodies legible as “Indian.” By chronicling how performances and definitions of redface rely upon legibility and delineations of race that are culturally constructed and routinely shifting\, this book offers an understanding of how redface works to naturalize a very particular version of history and\, in doing so\, mask its own performativity. Tracing the “Stage Indian” from its early nineteenth-century roots to its proliferation across theatrical entertainment forms and turn of the twenty-first century attempts to address its racist legacy\, Redface uses case studies in law and civic life to understand its offstage impact. Hughes connects extensive scholarship on the “Indian” in American culture to the theatrical history of racial impersonation and critiques of settler colonialism\, demonstrating redface’s high stakes for Indigenous and non-Indigenous alike. Revealing the persistence of redface and the challenges of fixing it\, Redface closes by offering readers an embodied rehearsal of what it would mean to read not for the “Indian” but for Indigenous theater and performance as it has always existed in the US. \n\nAbout the Author: Bethany Hughes is Assistant Professor at the University of Michigan in the Department of American Culture and a core faculty member in the Native American Studies Program. Her work can be found in Theatre Journal\, Mobilities\, Theatre Survey\, American Periodicals\, and Theatre Topics.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:Department Colloquium: \"Explanation As a Guide to What There Is and What It’s Like\"
DESCRIPTION:Department Colloquium featuring speaker: Nina Emery (Mount Holyoke)\n\nTitle: Explanation As a Guide to What There Is and What It’s Like\n\nAbstract: There is a long tradition in philosophy of using principles of explanatory inference to determine what there is and what it’s like. Two prominent examples are Leibniz’s Principle of Sufficient Reason (PSR) and contemporary philosophers' use of inference to the best explanation (IBE). The goal of this talk is to argue for a principle of explanatory inference that is more limited than the PSR and IBE but also more powerful. The strength of this alternative principle is its justification by way of naturalistic commitments that are widespread (though not always widely appreciated) throughout contemporary philosophy.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:HET Seminar | Illuminating the Dark Forests of the Hidden Valley Scenario
DESCRIPTION:In the Hidden Valley/Dark Sector scenario\, which has various theoretical motivations\, a hidden sector couples to the Standard Model at TeV scales or below.  A wide variety of exotic phenomena may result\, posing serious experimental and/or theoretical challenges.  The main theoretical hurdle is that hidden sectors may host phenomena that we cannot currently calculate or simulate\, thereby making predictions difficult or impossible.   I'll discuss a couple of projects at the frontiers of this subject.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Scattering Diagram Combinatorics and Generalized Positivity -- Combinatorics Seminar
DESCRIPTION:Cluster algebras are celebrated for their intriguing positivity properties. Two distinct proofs of this positivity have emerged: one through the combinatorics of Dyck paths\, and another via scattering diagrams\, which originate from mirror symmetry and were previously not combinatorially understood. Combining these approaches\, we find a directly computable\, manifestly positive\, and elementary (but highly nontrivial) formula describing rank 2 scattering diagrams. Using this\, we prove the Laurent positivity of generalized cluster algebras of all ranks\, resolving a conjecture of Chekhov and Shapiro from 2014. This is joint work with Kyungyong Lee and Lang Mou.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:Smith Lecture - Sierra Petersen\, University of Michigan
DESCRIPTION:Earth's history is punctuated by the \"Big 5\" mass extinctions\, but smaller\, regional-scale mass extinctions also dramatically impacted local faunal composition at times. As we are seeing today in the increase in coral bleaching events and ocean acidification\, the marine realm is often on the front lines of climate change. Reconstructing how past ocean temperatures changed across extinction events allows us to understand the baseline climate state upon which extinction occurred and whether temperature changes may have caused\, contributed to\, or exacerbated extinction severity. My research uses stable and clumped isotope paleothermometry applied to marine mollusk fossils (fossil seashells) to do just this - study the state of the oceans during key extinction intervals of Earth's history. In this talk\, I will describe the evolution in my thinking over my career relating to how clumped isotopes can be applied to reveal the most secrets from fossil shells and tell us not only about climate but about how the organism lived\, built its shell\, and died. I will present results relating to the Cretaceous-Paleogene global mass extinction and the Plio-Pleistocene regional molluscan mass extinction\, including both typical applications of isotope paleothermometry and newer\, more creative applications.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Isometric embeddings of Teichmuller spaces
DESCRIPTION:A classical theorem of Royden states that any biholomorphism or isometry of Teichmuller space of closed surfaces\, is induced by a homeomorphism of the underlying surface. Over the years\, this result has been generalized in a variety of ways. Such as\, to arbitrary surfaces of non-exceptional type or relaxing isometries to quasi-isometries. In this talk\, we will discuss another generalization. We will consider isometric embeddings between Teichmuller spaces of finite type surfaces and show that besides some low-dimensional cases\, they are induced by branched coverings between the underlying surfaces. As a consequence\, we obtain a classification of local isometric embeddings between moduli spaces of curves. This is joint work with Frederik Benirschke.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Stochastic Optimal Transport and the Stefan Problem
DESCRIPTION:We consider an optimal transport problem driven by a Lévy process with long-range jumps\, aiming to minimize a cost functional that depends on the stopping time of the process required to transition between an initial and target measure. When the target measure is fixed\, this is commonly referred to as the Optimal Skorokhod Embedding problem in the Mathematical Finance literature. In our case\, we will allow the target measure to vary as part of the optimization while imposing an upper bound constraint on it. \n \nWe will discuss how this problem is linked to the non-local Stefan problem\, which describes the phase transition between water and ice with anomalous diffusion. We will focus on the new results obtained due to the probabilistic approach we take\, and will discuss open questions. This is joint work with Inwon Kim\, Young-Heon Kim\, and Kyeongsik Nam.

SUMMARY:Performance:\"Where We Meet\" - Bachelor of Fine Arts in Dance Senior Concert
DESCRIPTION:The Department of Dance at the University of Michigan School of Music\, Theatre\, and Dance presents *Where We Meet*\, a Bachelor of Fine Arts dance concert at the Performance Studio Theatre. The concert features choreography and performance by graduating seniors Gabriella Boutiette\, Rachel Dunklee\, Sarah Gorman\, Katherine Mitchell\, and Abigail Widlak.\n\nGabriella Boutiette’s group work\, *Where do you sail when the sun surrenders?*\, is about the individual journey of finding the power of you. Although everyone’s journey in finding themselves\, their purpose\, and what they think the value they bring to the world manifests differently\, it is not as rare an experience as one might think. One’s power can come from within and also from finding those people who share the same drive or passion for something. When the world goes quiet\, who are the people you choose to surround yourself with? Who are you\, and what is your power? Boutiette’s solo\, Énoument\, investigates the bittersweet feeling of finally reaching the answers you’ve sought\, while grappling with the sorrow that you are unable to enlighten your past self.\n\nRachel Dunklee’s group\, *C’EST COMME ÇA\, C’EST COMME ÇA*\, follows a group of people after a long week of working a corporate job winding down at a back-door poker game. Playing the game\, they become less and less interested in the rivalry and the outcome and band together to throw the game away. Rachel’s solo work\, Laugh Until The Sun Goes\, is based on reflecting upon a past relationship. While the rain can be intense\, it is also very meditative and symbolic of washing yourself clean of the past. The solo acts as the last look at the relationship before letting it go.\n\nSarah Gorman’s group piece\, *Weaving Hearts*\, focuses on the complex ways in which people are perceived and act differently in every interaction. The dance will explore the complexities and roles of relationships and their function in our everyday lives: lighthearted\, carefree\, and heartbreaking. Gorman’s piece will celebrate girlhood and friendship. Creating a quilt of vignettes to illuminate the colorful fabric of the human experience. Gorman’s solo Emendemus in Melius will illuminate overcoming challenges in life and how beautiful it is for one to persevere. The piece navigates the challenges of self-doubt\, capturing moments of vulnerability that ultimately transform into strength. The solo will dive into the feeling of being held back\, but wanting to\, and eventually\, being set free.\n\nKatherine Mitchell’s group work\, *Pink Rubber Handlebars*\, explores a complex nostalgic state through relationships and interconnectedness\, highlighting the thrilling freedom of youth. Incorporating film elements\, the dancers evoke the essence of girlhood and growing up\, capturing the bittersweet blend of longing and comfort that nostalgia brings. Mitchell’s solo In a Passing Moment draws from the quiet beauty of empathy and the impact of shared human experience. Rooted in personal memories and fleeting encounters\, it reflects a profound sense of interconnectedness\, embracing the unknowns we each carry. \n\n\nAbby Widlak’s group work\, *Was*\, explores the idea of love and loss\, how grief can impact not only a person's day-to-day life\, but worldview as well. With an original score by Ryan Ardelt the dancers take a journey between the five stages of grief on the non-linear road to acceptance. Widlak’s solo\, Dear Abigail\, addresses what it is like to never be yourself with any specific person. She adventures through the idea of what it means to wear different masks with different people. This work is coupled with an original score by Jason Zhang\, a senior music composition and computer science major at U-M.

SUMMARY:Performance:Supercoolwicked presents \"Negro\, Spiritual\"
DESCRIPTION:Supercoolwicked performs her stunning and jubilant new work “Negro\, Spiritual” in connection with UMMA’s exhibition\, Silver Linings: Celebrating the Spelman Art Collection. This experimental musical explores self-reflection\, ancestral veneration\, and transformation. “Negro\, Spiritual\,” also the name of her forthcoming debut album\, recognizes the historical significance\, power\, and ownership of Black American musical contributions. The Negro Spiritual is considered to be the first “American” musical form and has since shaped the composition of contemporary music with continued influence worldwide. Claiming that lineage as an inheritance and birthright\, Supercoolwicked uses Negro spirituals as a launchpad for her personal journey to emotional safety and freedom. Supercoolwicked most recently performed “Negro\, Spiritual” at the Charles H. Wright Museum of African American History for a special off-grid performance in collaboration with artist/climate activist Ash Arder. “Negro\, Spiritual” is written and created by Morgan Cecille Hutson\, co-written and directed by Salakāstar\, and co-produced by Magic Wheel Creative\, a creative production agency founded by Tunde Olaniran.\n \nFree and open to the public\, no registration required.\n

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Making it: $napshots from the Artist Pay Project
DESCRIPTION:The Artist Pay Project is an anonymous journalistic series that examines how artists survive and thrive through anonymous money diaries. Developed by 2022-2023 Knight-Wallace and the Ford School's Center for Racial Justice Fellow Makeda Easter\, the series includes interviews with over 30 artists from various disciplines — including visual arts\, dance\, film\, and drag — to understand how much artists are paid for their work\, how work is priced\, and how artists feel about their overall financial security. Making it: $napshots from the Artist Pay Project by Makeda Easter is a visually-immersive\, physical manifestation of this work\, advocating for both the value of art in our society and higher wages for working artists. \n\nMaking it: $napshots from the Artist Pay Project is sponsored by the U-M Arts Initiative and Impact Studio.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Mrs. Dalloway and WWI: Home Front and War Front
DESCRIPTION:This exhibit explores the characters of Mrs. Dalloway through the lens of WWI and its aftershocks. It looks at those who fought in the trenches and those who watched from afar.\n\n[The exhibit includes references to suicide and Post Traumatic Stress Disorder\, which might be distressing for some visitors. Viewer discretion is advised.]\n\nWhile all of the action in Virginia Woolf’s modernist masterpiece takes place on a single day\, as preparations are made for Clarissa Dalloway’s evening party\, Woolf’s stream of consciousness writing takes us in the characters’ minds all the way from English drawing rooms to colonial India to the trenches of World War I.\n\nCheck today's Hatcher Gallery Exhibit Room hours: https://myumi.ch/PkQ2x

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:Bittersweet Bliss
DESCRIPTION:On view December 4–15\, 2024 at Stamps Gallery.\n\nWe proudly present an exhibition that swirls through nine personal narratives of struggle\, self-knowledge\, and fantasy respectively. The imagined paired with the gut led to a collection of works that overload the senses\, and indulge in a decadence of material and ornamentation. These works conjure memories of the hospital stay\, the museum visit\, the family gathering\, and inexplicable bouts of nostalgia from a lineage that precedes us. We long\, we dream\, we ail\, we labor\, we try and fail to control\, we are overwhelmed\, and yet\, we find bliss and comfort in the middle of it all. We know what we feel and we remember it. As our BA Seniors bid farewell to Stamps\, we share this gift of our work\, tied lovingly with a bow.\n\nThe Bachelor of Arts (BA) Senior Studio (ARTDES 401) is offered for Stamps BA students in their final year of study. The BA Senior Studio Exhibition offers these students the opportunity to build on the particular characteristics of the BA degree\, and focus on creating and exhibiting a culminating\, self-directed project. Students work independently or collaboratively to define a project plan with goals\, benchmarks\, and a timeline. \n\nThe BA Senior Studio Exhibition is a new tradition for Stamps\, with the inaugural show taking place in Fall 2024. These students and instructors have worked collaboratively to produce a fully self-directed show from start to finish\, emphasizing the skills and practices associated with producing professional exhibitions\, in addition to their studio work. \n\nFaculty:\nNick Tobier\, Professor\nMichelle Cieloszczyk\, GSI\n\nBA Student Artists and Designers:\nMaria D'Ambrosio\nDanielle de Coster\nEsha Kumar\nPeyton Messner\nMaya Moufawad\nRia Garcia Rivera\nBenjamin Nicolas Seguin \nScott Wallace Smith\nSiyu Zhong

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Kelly Church & Cherish Parrish: In Our Words\, An Intergenerational Dialogue
DESCRIPTION:Exhibition Dates: September 13 – December 7\, 2024Opening Reception: September 19\, 2024\n\nKelly Church &amp\; Cherish Parrish: In Our Words\, An Intergenerational Dialogue is a major exhibition that centers the subjectivities of two contemporary Indigenous artists whose practices have sustained and bolstered the relevance of the age-old Anishinaabe practice of black ash basket-making in the 21st century. The exhibition highlights the significance of community-based conversations between mother and daughter\, and their ongoing conversations with elders (ancestors)\, young folx\, and future generations as vital aspects of their methodology. These conversations often take place during basket gatherings - where community members come together and share stories and teachings that can encompass Anishinaabe creation stories\, as well as those of survivance and resilience\, to inform the materiality and liveness of their work. The curatorial and interpretive framework of this exhibition contends that the deeply situated and temporal works by Church (Stamps\, BFA 1998) and Parrish (LSA\, BA 2020) are repositories for Anishinaabe ways of knowing\, thinking\, and making that contribute to the complexity of American art and its histories. The expansive and bold practices of Church and Parrish affirm the sovereignty of Anishinaabe lifeways and the importance of including Indigenous narratives that have systematically been left out. Thus\, the thematic survey of their work will explore the under-examined themes that inform their work such as Native women’s labor as carriers of culture and knowledge-keepers\, the legacy of boarding schools and ancestors who walked on\, the treaties in Michigan and the long-overlooked legacy of Anishinaabe intellectual life and their relevance today. Just like the practice of weaving and interlacing distinct strips of black ash to create one whole\, Church and Parrish will address the diverse and interconnected themes with approximately 30-35 works\, including 15-17 new works. Together\, the exhibition offers an incisive critique of the colonial\, racist paradigm of systemic erasure and assimilation that continues to this day\, with the ongoing crises of missing and murdered Indigenous women\, culture wars\, and climate change that threaten Indigenous ways of living\, sustenance\, and making. \nCurated by Srimoyee Mitra with Curatorial Assistant Zoi Crampton.\nStamps Gallery is grateful to Michigan Humanities and U-M Arts Initiative for generously supporting the exhibition and programs.

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:Other:Read and Look | The Water Princess
DESCRIPTION:The Kelsey’s “Read and Look” program is a great first trip to the museum—providing visitors with opportunities to explore past and present cultures and connect with others. This event is free and open to everyone but is intended for children ages 4–8.\n\nInspired by supermodel Georgie Badiel’s childhood in Burkina Faso\, *The Water Princess* tells the story of Princess Gie Gie\, who endeavors to bring clean water to her small village. Each morning\, she embarks on the long journey to the well with a heavy pot atop her head\, dreaming of a day when her village will have an ample\, clean supply of water. This vibrant\, engaging story—written by Susan Verde with illustrations by Peter H. Reynolds—highlights the global issue of water scarcity and instills hope for a future in which all children have access to clean drinking water.\n\nThis event is free and open to all visitors. If you have any questions or concerns regarding accessing this event\, please visit our accessibility page at https://myumi.ch/zwPkd or contact the education office by calling (734) 647-4167.

SUMMARY:Performance:Handel’s Messiah
DESCRIPTION:Handel composed his oratorio Messiah over the course of a single month in 1741\, six months before its triumphant premiere at a new concert hall in Dublin. This timeless masterpiece has enraptured audiences for centuries with its sublime beauty and profound spirituality. From the jubilant “Hallelujah” chorus to its stirring arias and evocative chorales\, Messiah is brought to life by friends and colleagues from the community through both the Ann Arbor Symphony Orchestra and the UMS Choral Union. UMSCU music director Scott Hanoian conducts this annual holiday tradition\, which features a cast of stellar soloists all making their first UMS appearances. “A musical rite of the holiday season\, the Baroque-era oratorio still awes listeners more than 250 years after the composer’s death.” (Smithsonian)\n\nFeatured Artists: \nUMS Choral Union\nAnn Arbor Symphony Orchestra\nScott Hanoian\, conductor\n\nLauren Snouffer\, soprano\nEric Jurenas\, countertenor\nLunga Eric Hallam\, tenor\nChristian Simmons\, bass-baritone

SUMMARY:Performance:\"Where We Meet\" - Bachelor of Fine Arts in Dance Senior Concert
DESCRIPTION:The Department of Dance at the University of Michigan School of Music\, Theatre\, and Dance presents *Where We Meet*\, a Bachelor of Fine Arts dance concert at the Performance Studio Theatre. The concert features choreography and performance by graduating seniors Gabriella Boutiette\, Rachel Dunklee\, Sarah Gorman\, Katherine Mitchell\, and Abigail Widlak.\n\nGabriella Boutiette’s group work\, *Where do you sail when the sun surrenders?*\, is about the individual journey of finding the power of you. Although everyone’s journey in finding themselves\, their purpose\, and what they think the value they bring to the world manifests differently\, it is not as rare an experience as one might think. One’s power can come from within and also from finding those people who share the same drive or passion for something. When the world goes quiet\, who are the people you choose to surround yourself with? Who are you\, and what is your power? Boutiette’s solo\, Énoument\, investigates the bittersweet feeling of finally reaching the answers you’ve sought\, while grappling with the sorrow that you are unable to enlighten your past self.\n\nRachel Dunklee’s group\, *C’EST COMME ÇA\, C’EST COMME ÇA*\, follows a group of people after a long week of working a corporate job winding down at a back-door poker game. Playing the game\, they become less and less interested in the rivalry and the outcome and band together to throw the game away. Rachel’s solo work\, Laugh Until The Sun Goes\, is based on reflecting upon a past relationship. While the rain can be intense\, it is also very meditative and symbolic of washing yourself clean of the past. The solo acts as the last look at the relationship before letting it go.\n\nSarah Gorman’s group piece\, *Weaving Hearts*\, focuses on the complex ways in which people are perceived and act differently in every interaction. The dance will explore the complexities and roles of relationships and their function in our everyday lives: lighthearted\, carefree\, and heartbreaking. Gorman’s piece will celebrate girlhood and friendship. Creating a quilt of vignettes to illuminate the colorful fabric of the human experience. Gorman’s solo Emendemus in Melius will illuminate overcoming challenges in life and how beautiful it is for one to persevere. The piece navigates the challenges of self-doubt\, capturing moments of vulnerability that ultimately transform into strength. The solo will dive into the feeling of being held back\, but wanting to\, and eventually\, being set free.\n\nKatherine Mitchell’s group work\, *Pink Rubber Handlebars*\, explores a complex nostalgic state through relationships and interconnectedness\, highlighting the thrilling freedom of youth. Incorporating film elements\, the dancers evoke the essence of girlhood and growing up\, capturing the bittersweet blend of longing and comfort that nostalgia brings. Mitchell’s solo In a Passing Moment draws from the quiet beauty of empathy and the impact of shared human experience. Rooted in personal memories and fleeting encounters\, it reflects a profound sense of interconnectedness\, embracing the unknowns we each carry. \n\n\nAbby Widlak’s group work\, *Was*\, explores the idea of love and loss\, how grief can impact not only a person's day-to-day life\, but worldview as well. With an original score by Ryan Ardelt the dancers take a journey between the five stages of grief on the non-linear road to acceptance. Widlak’s solo\, Dear Abigail\, addresses what it is like to never be yourself with any specific person. She adventures through the idea of what it means to wear different masks with different people. This work is coupled with an original score by Jason Zhang\, a senior music composition and computer science major at U-M.

SUMMARY:Performance:An Acoustic Christmas with Over the Rhine
DESCRIPTION:2024 Christmas Tour Thoughts:\n\nOne December\, not long after Over the Rhine began recording and touring\, we were invited to perform some seasonal songs on a public radio station in Cincinnati. It was Christmastime and apparently they thought we were up to the task. We worked up a few carols and traditional tunes and Karin even read a poem by Thomas Hardy called\, The Oxen.\n\nIt actually felt really good and conjured up an unusual mix of feelings from childhood: innocence\, loss\, wonder\, joy\, sadness. I think we were surprised. \n\nPeople must have tuned into the radio broadcast\, because we began receiving inquiries as to whether we had recorded any of our Christmas songs. I don’t think we had considered it at the time\, but any young\, struggling songwriter is open to the suggestions of the marketplace\, and people were persistent.\n\nIn December of 1996 – can it really be over 25 years ago? – we recorded and released our first song cycle of some of the Christmas carols that still haunted us. We included a few original tunes and called our wintry mix The Darkest Night Of The Year. We played a special “darkest night” release concert on winter solstice in an old 1300-seat theater in Cincinnati. Every last seat was full. Folks began snatching up copies and seemed to agree that they hadn’t heard anything quite like it.\n\nWe began playing concerts around the Midwest every December and found that the rooms were usually packed full of people who had bundled in out of the cold with prized compatriots. Hats and scarves abounded. If you stepped outside during intermission\, you could make ghosts with your breath in the crisp night air. And it was dark – oh so dark: a time of year with its own music.\n\nA decade later\, in 2006\, we released our first full collection of original Christmas/holiday songs called Snow Angels. What is it about Christmas music and the undeniable gravitational pull it exerts on some songwriters? So many Christmas songs have already been written. I think we are genuinely curious about the ones that haven’t yet been written.\n\nWe continued to tour every December and these special year-winding-down concerts began to feel like an annual tradition – gatherings of extended musical family\, without whom\, we’d be homeless.\n\nBy the time we released our third holiday album of original songs\, Blood Oranges In The Snow\, in December of 2014\, Karin suggested we had discovered a new genre of music: Reality Christmas.\n\nIt’s true: if you’ve buried a loved one\, or lost a job\, or battled a chronic illness\, that stuff doesn’t go away during the holidays. It can be a complicated season for many of us.\n\nAnd then there’s family.\n\nWhen Karin and I make the annual holiday pilgrimage home to visit family and pull into the driveway and turn off the car\, one of us inevitably looks over at the other and says\, “Tie a rope around my waist\, I’m goin’ in.”\n\nIn 2024\, more than 25 years after releasing our first holiday CD\, we are still at it. This year\, we will be leaning into some harmonies and making an intimate but hopefully holy ruckus. It won’t be all Christmas music: we’ll certainly mix in tunes from many of our records along the way. But\nhopefully it’s still true: hopefully you haven’t heard anything quite like it.\n\nMaybe a midnight snow will fall and turn each streetlight into its own private snow globe. Maybe\, regardless of whatever reality Christmas brings\, we’ll hear a faint echo of a song once rumored to have been sung by angels\, a song of peace on earth\, goodwill toward all… We’ve never heard anything quite like it.\n\nWe hope you’ll join us\,\n\nLinford Detweiler\nWith Karin close by\nNowhere Else\nClinton County\, Ohio

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Making it: $napshots from the Artist Pay Project
DESCRIPTION:The Artist Pay Project is an anonymous journalistic series that examines how artists survive and thrive through anonymous money diaries. Developed by 2022-2023 Knight-Wallace and the Ford School's Center for Racial Justice Fellow Makeda Easter\, the series includes interviews with over 30 artists from various disciplines — including visual arts\, dance\, film\, and drag — to understand how much artists are paid for their work\, how work is priced\, and how artists feel about their overall financial security. Making it: $napshots from the Artist Pay Project by Makeda Easter is a visually-immersive\, physical manifestation of this work\, advocating for both the value of art in our society and higher wages for working artists. \n\nMaking it: $napshots from the Artist Pay Project is sponsored by the U-M Arts Initiative and Impact Studio.

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.

It looks at those who fought in the trenches and those who watched from afar.\n\n[The exhibit includes references to suicide and Post Traumatic Stress Disorder\, which might be distressing for some visitors. Viewer discretion is advised.]\n\nWhile all of the action in Virginia Woolf’s modernist masterpiece takes place on a single day\, as preparations are made for Clarissa Dalloway’s evening party\, Woolf’s stream of consciousness writing takes us in the characters’ minds all the way from English drawing rooms to colonial India to the trenches of World War I.\n\nCheck today's Hatcher Gallery Exhibit Room hours: https://myumi.ch/PkQ2x

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:Performance:Handel’s Messiah
DESCRIPTION:Handel composed his oratorio Messiah over the course of a single month in 1741\, six months before its triumphant premiere at a new concert hall in Dublin. This timeless masterpiece has enraptured audiences for centuries with its sublime beauty and profound spirituality. From the jubilant “Hallelujah” chorus to its stirring arias and evocative chorales\, Messiah is brought to life by friends and colleagues from the community through both the Ann Arbor Symphony Orchestra and the UMS Choral Union. UMSCU music director Scott Hanoian conducts this annual holiday tradition\, which features a cast of stellar soloists all making their first UMS appearances. “A musical rite of the holiday season\, the Baroque-era oratorio still awes listeners more than 250 years after the composer’s death.” (Smithsonian)\n\nFeatured Artists: \nUMS Choral Union\nAnn Arbor Symphony Orchestra\nScott Hanoian\, conductor\n\nLauren Snouffer\, soprano\nEric Jurenas\, countertenor\nLunga Eric Hallam\, tenor\nChristian Simmons\, bass-baritone

DESCRIPTION:What steps did ancient Egyptians take to ensure a smooth journey to the afterlife? How did Romans bury their dead?\n\nGet an overview of the beliefs and practices relating to death and the afterlife in the ancient Egyptian and Roman worlds. This Sunday Drop-In Tour will start on the first floor\, where we will talk about the Egyptian doctrine of the five essential parts of being\, the role that these played in having a successful afterlife\, and how the spirit of the deceased navigated to the underworld.

Based on a Christmas story\, An Elixir of Love\, that Gilbert wrote for The Graphic magazine in 1876\, this production will be set in the modern South of America.

Wells & Co.\, Family Sorcerers\, to brew a love potion. This causes everyone in the village to fall in love with the first person they see and results in the pairing of comically mismatched couples. To see how it all works out\, come see this University of Michigan Gilbert and Sullivan Society’s production.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Making it: $napshots from the Artist Pay Project
DESCRIPTION:The Artist Pay Project is an anonymous journalistic series that examines how artists survive and thrive through anonymous money diaries. Developed by 2022-2023 Knight-Wallace and the Ford School's Center for Racial Justice Fellow Makeda Easter\, the series includes interviews with over 30 artists from various disciplines — including visual arts\, dance\, film\, and drag — to understand how much artists are paid for their work\, how work is priced\, and how artists feel about their overall financial security. Making it: $napshots from the Artist Pay Project by Makeda Easter is a visually-immersive\, physical manifestation of this work\, advocating for both the value of art in our society and higher wages for working artists. \n\nMaking it: $napshots from the Artist Pay Project is sponsored by the U-M Arts Initiative and Impact Studio.

DESCRIPTION:This exhibit explores the characters of Mrs. Dalloway through the lens of WWI and its aftershocks. It looks at those who fought in the trenches and those who watched from afar.\n\n[The exhibit includes references to suicide and Post Traumatic Stress Disorder\, which might be distressing for some visitors. Viewer discretion is advised.]\n\nWhile all of the action in Virginia Woolf’s modernist masterpiece takes place on a single day\, as preparations are made for Clarissa Dalloway’s evening party\, Woolf’s stream of consciousness writing takes us in the characters’ minds all the way from English drawing rooms to colonial India to the trenches of World War I.\n\nCheck today's Hatcher Gallery Exhibit Room hours: https://myumi.ch/PkQ2x

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Steve Glazer Art Exhibition
DESCRIPTION:Steve Glazer earned his BFA in art with a concentration in ceramics from Eastern Michigan University\, a master’s degree in art from Central Michigan University\, and MFA in fine arts and ceramics from Indiana State University. Since 2004\, Glazer has been lead faculty and head of ceramics at Henry Ford College\, and former faculty of Concord College (WV) and North Dakota State University. His artwork has been exhibited throughout the country.\n\nThroughout his adult life the art of Steve Glazer has been done as a response to his environment. From a series of shadow box type pieces containing life like ceramic fish while teaching at a Catholic woman’s college\, to building 8’ tall ceramic “skyscrapers” that barely fit into the display spaces while teaching in North Dakota\, where no skyscrapers exist\, and then creating installations commenting on living in Appalachia while teaching in southern West Virginia. After returning home to Detroit\, Glazer began his griot series\, the “Motor City Griot Society” masks\, the faces of the superheroes that will save Detroit\, and more recently the “Motor City Griot Patrol” creatures that will protect the city of Detroit.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Susan Moran Exhibition
DESCRIPTION:Susan Moran’s work is inspired by the natural world and our place in it.  She collects and arranges images\, builds and subtracts\, and uses processes that suit the concepts and gives the pieces a reason for existing as textiles.  Simultaneously she strives to make the medium  influence the  outcome in such a way that cloth and image meld together. Moran uses  silkscreen\, shibori\, and stitching to embed images from her daily walks into the fabric. it's important that the work builds slowly\, involving meditative processes that connect her to the cloth and the source of the design.\n\nGallery hours:  Monday-Friday\, 9 am to 5pm or by appointment serrag@med.umich.edu

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Touch
DESCRIPTION:Ericka Lopez is a visual artist born in Mexico and living in Los Angeles. Lopez lost her sight at an early age and is mostly non-verbal. This exhibition of tactile assemblage works and gestural coiled pots were created by the artist through touch and texture\, colored by memory. The works are sensory\, physical\, immediate\, reaffirming\, and deeply expressive. Viewers to this exhibition are invited to touch the work. \n\nDuring her residency\, the artist and her support team\, which includes her mother and translator\, will engage directly with students in the exhibition space\, offering a transformative experience based on human expression and connection through art. Because Ericka feels most comfortable when she is working\, she plans to make artwork with students as part of the class engagements with the exhibition.\n\nAbout Ericka Lopez\nBorn 1987 in Mexico\, Ericka Lopez has been making art at Tierra del Sol Studios since 2019. Working across ceramic\, fiber\, and mixed media constructions\, Lopez’s practice is centralized around her exploration of touch. Lopez was born with limited vision and is now completely blind. Lopez trained in massage therapy and previously volunteered at a soup kitchen when an encounter with Tierra’s ceramics studio shifted her trajectory toward fine art. Her masterful command of clay hand-building techniques enables Lopez to create intricate\, dynamic\, and organically structured coil vessels. Lopez’s works are informed by her finite recollection of color\; she requests specific shades and combinations of glazes that generate spontaneous\, distinctive surfaces when fired. This intuitive approach continues in her fiber wall works and mixed media sculptures. Utilizing punch rug embroidery\, Lopez creates abstract fields of yarn and found objects\, often repeatedly punching through the same area to yield densely layered sections. Lopez has learned to identify the color of her materials via scent and feel\, a process that is difficult to put into words. Her mixed media sculptures are created almost entirely by touch\, consisting of threads\, buttons\, beads\, fabric scraps\, and found objects instinctively stitched together using simple sewing techniques. Lopez hopes her works can be experienced through an inquiry of touch.\n\nEricka Lopez has exhibited her artwork at Laband Gallery and Tierra del Sol Gallery in Los Angeles\, CA. Lopez’s debut solo exhibition\, “Continuous Touch\,” was curated by jill moniz for Tierra del Sol Gallery in the Spring of 2023. She has had works acquired by notable private collections such as that of Beth DeWoody and by the Kleefeld Contemporary Art Museum at UC Long Beach.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Causal Transports on Path Space
DESCRIPTION:Causal optimal transport and the related adapted Wasserstein distance have recently been popularized as a more appropriate alternative to the classical Wasserstein distance in the context of stochastic analysis and mathematical finance. In this talk\, we establish some interesting consequences of causality for transports on the space of continuous functions between the laws of stochastic differential equations.\n \nWe characterize bicausal transport plans and maps between the laws of stochastic differential equations and provide some applications. Time permitting\, we discuss about the stability and optimality of the (bi)causal transport problem.\n\nThis is a joint work with Rama Cont.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:ESDM Parent Training Group – Fall 2024
DESCRIPTION:The Early Start Denver Model (ESDM) is an evidence-based treatment model for young children with Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD). The group is designed for parents and caregivers with children ages 5 and under who have diagnosed or suspected Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD) or a Developmental Delay.\n\nThe virtual parenting training group will meet weekly on Mondays from 12 – 1 p.m. via Zoom\, with a planned start date of October 28th.\n\nFall 2024 ESDM Group Details\n+ When: 12 – 1 p.m. Mondays\, beginning October 28 (10 weeks).\n+ Where: Online via Zoom\n+ Who: Parents and caregivers with children under the age of 5 who have diagnosed or suspected ASD/Developmental Delay\n+ Cost: Some insurances accepted\; self-pay also accepted and is $45 per weekly session.\n+ Register: Complete our secure\, online registration form to get started or call (734) 615-7853 for more information.\n\nAbout the Early Start Denver Model (ESDM) Group\nThe ESDM group is a naturalistic treatment that represents a fusion between behavioral treatment methods and developmental theory. Treatment goals will focus on building strong social communication skills in young children with ASD/Developmental Delays and reducing problematic behaviors. The parent training group is designed to teach parents these strategies to increase the number of intervention hours that young children receive. \n\nA secondary goal is to support parents of children with ASD/Developmental Delays and help them develop a community of parents in a similar life stage. Since it is a parent training group\, children are welcome but not required to attend.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:FoRMS December Meeting
DESCRIPTION:Listen to three students present some work from upcoming term papers:\n\nBevin Killen (History): \"The Turning of the Year: Time and Devotion in Late Medieval and Early Modern Europe\"\n\nLooking at three books of hours from France and the Netherlands from the 14th\, 15th\, and 16th centuries (respectively)\, this paper seeks to investigate how notions of time shaped personal devotion in late medieval and early modern Europe. Specifically\, the calendar portions of books of hours have often been seen as auxiliary to the books' central purpose: to structure time and prayer within a 24-hour cycle. However\, by examining the patterns of wear on these three books and their place in the larger collections of their owners\, I hope to demonstrate that these calendars also served a sacral purpose\, as focal points for devotion as well as temporal structures.\n\nYueling Li (History of Art): \"Microcosm through Tea: Liquescent and Mimetic Materiality of Song Black Glazed Tea Bowls\":\n\nKnown as Jian zhan or Tenmoku\, black glaze tea bowls are cherished for their surface resemblance of hare’s fur\, mottled feather and oil drops. Praised for their ideal physical property as container for tea\, black glazed bowls make their appearance into poems and classics by Su Shi\, Cai Xiang\, and Emperor Huizong. Focusing on the surface aesthetics of black glazed tea containers in Song Dynasty\, the phenomenological approaches of this essay is framed by the material force of water and the transmateriality of liquescence. Primarily\, it examines the physical firing transformation inside the kiln\, and the transformative power of the finished surface to evoke in its beholder a mimesis of animate creatures and weather phenomenon in nature. This discussion of the container is followed by a discussion of the liquid being contained within—tea—as a popular commodity that traveled along land\, river and sea routes and as an index of social status and literati culture. Examining textual and visual depiction of tea production and appreciation\, this essay argues that tea culture in Song dynasty involved innovation on many levels\, from technological apparatus such as hydraulic mills to a heightened multisensory perception of not only seeing but hearing water. This essay concludes with tea bowls as an itinerant object that went with the flow from rivers to the sea\, and traveled from Fujian to Zhejiang to Japan. By doing so\, this essay attempts an ecocritical case study of East Asian art history.\n\nDoyun Kim (History of Art): \"Ecoaesthetics of the Sacred Landscape: The Virgin of Valvanera in colonial Mexico\":\n\nAbstract: In this essay\, I argue that the Virgin of Valvanera at the Denver Art Museum offers a reimagined vision of the Marian apparition inspired by the ecological conditions of colonial Mexico. The Virgin of Valvanera\, attributed to Juan Correa (1646–1716)\, features the miraculous discovery of the Marian statue in La Rioja\, Spain. The painting is noteworthy for its distinctive ecoaesthetics. Allocating more than half of the picture plane to a landscape\, it integrates the Marian image with sylvan surroundings and the architectural complex into an organic whole. To explain this perception of interconnectivity\, I examine the visual elements of the painting with various other factors\, including arboreal subjectivity\, the cave’s association with water and meteorological phenomena\, and the pluvial landscapes of Mesoamerica. I conclude that the Virgin of Valvanera presents the potential of forging a different relationship with nature in eighteenth-century colonial Mexico.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Digital Twin Calibration in the Era of Big Data
DESCRIPTION:About the speaker: Cheoljoon Jeong is a Ph.D. candidate in the Department of Industrial and Operations Engineering at the University of Michigan\, Ann Arbor. His research interests encompass industrial data science\, quality and reliability engineering\, system informatics\, and the design and analysis of computer experiments. His current research focuses on developing digital twin calibration methodologies for several applications such as building energy and wind power systems. He has also been advancing industrial data science methodologies to enhance automation and improve process control in smart manufacturing. He has received multiple best paper recognitions\, including the Richard C. Wilson Best Paper Prize from the University of Michigan\, the IISE QCRE Best Student Paper Award\, the IISE DAIS Best Paper Award Finalist\, and the INFORMS QSR Best Paper Award Finalist. Throughout his academic journey\, he has been awarded prestigious fellowships\, including the Edward P. Fitts\, Seth Bonder\, and IES Graduate Fellowships.\n\nAbstract: A digital twin is a digital representation of a physical system that is useful for monitoring\, diagnostics\, and prognostics in a virtual world. Due to advances in sensing technology\, a massive amount of observational data is collected from various aspects of the system. Calibrating digital twins with the observational data is crucial to enabling them to accurately replicate the physical system. One way to calibrate digital twins is through parameter calibration. This study develops quantitative calibration methods that harness the full potential of big data\, addressing research challenges posed by its scale and complexity. These include: (a) developing an approach that integrates nonlinear optimization with statistical theory to guide the sequential design of computer experiments\, (b) devising a stochastic dimension reduction method for high-dimensional simulation parameters with explainability\, and (c) extending the framework to accommodate a wide range of problems\, including functional calibration. The approaches are validated through real-world case studies.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:RCGD Fall Seminar Series: The Social Psychology of Systemic Racism (Sophie Trawalter)
DESCRIPTION:While many Americans see the Confederate flag as a symbol of racism\, many others insist that it is a symbol of “heritage\, not hate.” This debate has spurred protests\, counter-protests\, arrests\, and legal disputes. Here\, we examine (i) the historical and psychological meaning of Confederate symbols\, (ii) consequences of displaying Confederate symbols in public spaces\, and (iii) downstream consequences of removing them from public spaces. More generally\, this talk will be an invitation to discuss whether and\, if so\, how social scientists can contribute to socially\, culturally\, politically fraught issues.\n\nSophie Trawalter is the Batten Family Bicentennial Teacher-Scholar Leadership Professor of Public Policy at the Frank Batten School of Leadership and Public Policy and Professor of Psychology at the University of Virginia. She studies psychological processes that contribute to social disparities.\n\nThe RCGD Seminar Series on the Social Psychology of Systemic Racism meets Mondays from 3:30 to 5 at ISR Thompson 1430. When speaker permission is given\, events will be recorded and posted within a few weeks to YouTube.\n\nSeries Theme: The Social Psychology of Systemic Racism\nWhat are the points of connection between structures and individuals when we think about bias? In the Fall 2024 RCGD Seminar Series “The Social Psychology of Systemic Racism\,” an all-star lineup of behavioral and political psychologists will define what\, in their words\, makes systemic racism systemic\, and how extra-individual levels of analysis could be incorporated in social psychological theories and methods.\n\nGroup Dynamics Seminar Series\nThe Group Dynamics Seminar series is considered one of the longest running seminar series in the social sciences. It has been running uninterruptedly since it was founded by Kurt Lewin in the 1920’s in Berlin. The seminar series runs every semester on a theme chosen by faculty organizer/s who are affiliated with the Research Center for Group Dynamics at the Institute for Social Research. A very important feature of this seminar today is its interdisciplinary nature. Recent themes have included political polarization\, evolution and human behavior\, and cultural psychology

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Colloquium Seminar: Singularity formation in fluids
DESCRIPTION:Whether the 3D incompressible Euler equations can develop a finite-time singularity from smooth initial data is a long-standing open problem in mathematical fluid mechanics. In this talk\, I will begin by providing an overview of this problem and then introduce a framework for stable\, nearly self-similar blowup\, developed in joint work with Tom Hou (Caltech). Using this framework\, we establish singularity formation in the incompressible Euler equations with smooth data and boundary.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Conjecture on a Novel Way to Construct SL_4 Webs
DESCRIPTION:I am going to start by introducing the bijection between two-row (resp. three-row) rectangular standard Young tableaux and non-crossing matchings (resp. sl_3 webs) and the bijection between promotion of tableaux and rotation of webs. Last year\, sl_4 webs were finally defined from hourglass plabic graphs. However\, their construction involves approximately 100 growth rules. In this talk\, I am going to introduce a conjecture on a novel way to construct such webs by \"stacking\" sl_3 webs.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:Dr. Denis Mukwege and the Fight against Rape as a Weapon of War
DESCRIPTION:Nobel Peace Prize laureate Dr. Denis Mukwege will address the progress\, or lack of progress\, in the fight against sexual violence in the Democratic Republic of the Congo (DRC) and around the world\, and his new initiative to move \"From Holistic Care to Holistic Justice.\"\n\nDr. Mukwege is a world-renowned gynecologist\, human rights activist\, and Nobel Peace Prize laureate (2018) from eastern DRC. Having established the Panzi Hospital in 1999 as a clinic for gynecological and obstetric care Dr. Mukwege realized that medical services alone could not end the use of sexual violence as a weapon of war and armed conflict. Dr. Mukwege and his staff at Panzi hospital in Bukavu have treated more than 80\,000 women and girls\, provided mental health support and helped break the stigma around survivors of rape.\n\nIn 2010 he received the Wallenberg Medal from the University of Michigan in recognition of his personal courage and work to confront and address conflict-related sexual violence.\n\nIn his efforts to bring the topic to the attention of the UN and other international organizations\, to increase protection for women\, and to advocate that those responsible for sexual violence be brought to justice\, he has become a leading activist for human rights and gender equality.\n\nThe Panzi Foundation is also launching a new campaign focused on critical minerals and the role of responsible business in the peace process in DRC.\n\n \n\nThis event is co-sponsored by the African Studies Center.

SUMMARY:Performance:University Symphony Orchestra
DESCRIPTION:Kenneth Kiesler\, conductor\nAleks Shameti\, piano  \n\nPROGRAM\n\nEnescu\, Prelude in Unision\nLiszt\, Piano Concerto No. 2\nBartók\, Concerto for Orchestra\n\nIn this exciting USO concert\, the spotlight is on Aleks Shameti\, winner of the 2024 SMTD Concerto Competition\, and the musicians of the USO\, in two virtuoso Hungarian showpieces! \n\nOver time\, the word “concerto” evolved from being music with contrasts to become a virtuoso piece that shows off the technical prowess and musicality of an accomplished soloist playing with (or against) and orchestra. The Liszt Piano Concerto No. 2 originally featured the Hungarian composer’s own pianistic prowess. On the other hand\, with his Concerto for Orchestra\, Bartók showcased the musicians and sections of the orchestra itself (originally the Boston Symphony). This thrilling and colorful music springs from Hungarian folk dances and songs to have become one of the most popular and often-performed showpieces ever written for orchestra. \n\nIn the evening’s opening piece\, Enescu’s Prelude in Unison\, the orchestra’s string sections (without the double basses) – as if speaking with one voice in passionate\, folksy music – seem to tell a story of personal struggle\, aspiration\, triumph\, and serenity.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Making it: $napshots from the Artist Pay Project
DESCRIPTION:The Artist Pay Project is an anonymous journalistic series that examines how artists survive and thrive through anonymous money diaries. Developed by 2022-2023 Knight-Wallace and the Ford School's Center for Racial Justice Fellow Makeda Easter\, the series includes interviews with over 30 artists from various disciplines — including visual arts\, dance\, film\, and drag — to understand how much artists are paid for their work\, how work is priced\, and how artists feel about their overall financial security. Making it: $napshots from the Artist Pay Project by Makeda Easter is a visually-immersive\, physical manifestation of this work\, advocating for both the value of art in our society and higher wages for working artists. \n\nMaking it: $napshots from the Artist Pay Project is sponsored by the U-M Arts Initiative and Impact Studio.

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:Mrs. Dalloway and WWI: Home Front and War Front
DESCRIPTION:This exhibit explores the characters of Mrs. Dalloway through the lens of WWI and its aftershocks. It looks at those who fought in the trenches and those who watched from afar.\n\n[The exhibit includes references to suicide and Post Traumatic Stress Disorder\, which might be distressing for some visitors. Viewer discretion is advised.]\n\nWhile all of the action in Virginia Woolf’s modernist masterpiece takes place on a single day\, as preparations are made for Clarissa Dalloway’s evening party\, Woolf’s stream of consciousness writing takes us in the characters’ minds all the way from English drawing rooms to colonial India to the trenches of World War I.\n\nCheck today's Hatcher Gallery Exhibit Room hours: https://myumi.ch/PkQ2x

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Steve Glazer Art Exhibition
DESCRIPTION:Steve Glazer earned his BFA in art with a concentration in ceramics from Eastern Michigan University\, a master’s degree in art from Central Michigan University\, and MFA in fine arts and ceramics from Indiana State University. Since 2004\, Glazer has been lead faculty and head of ceramics at Henry Ford College\, and former faculty of Concord College (WV) and North Dakota State University. His artwork has been exhibited throughout the country.\n\nThroughout his adult life the art of Steve Glazer has been done as a response to his environment. From a series of shadow box type pieces containing life like ceramic fish while teaching at a Catholic woman’s college\, to building 8’ tall ceramic “skyscrapers” that barely fit into the display spaces while teaching in North Dakota\, where no skyscrapers exist\, and then creating installations commenting on living in Appalachia while teaching in southern West Virginia. After returning home to Detroit\, Glazer began his griot series\, the “Motor City Griot Society” masks\, the faces of the superheroes that will save Detroit\, and more recently the “Motor City Griot Patrol” creatures that will protect the city of Detroit.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Susan Moran Exhibition
DESCRIPTION:Susan Moran’s work is inspired by the natural world and our place in it.  She collects and arranges images\, builds and subtracts\, and uses processes that suit the concepts and gives the pieces a reason for existing as textiles.  Simultaneously she strives to make the medium  influence the  outcome in such a way that cloth and image meld together. Moran uses  silkscreen\, shibori\, and stitching to embed images from her daily walks into the fabric. it's important that the work builds slowly\, involving meditative processes that connect her to the cloth and the source of the design.\n\nGallery hours:  Monday-Friday\, 9 am to 5pm or by appointment serrag@med.umich.edu

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Touch
DESCRIPTION:Ericka Lopez is a visual artist born in Mexico and living in Los Angeles. Lopez lost her sight at an early age and is mostly non-verbal. This exhibition of tactile assemblage works and gestural coiled pots were created by the artist through touch and texture\, colored by memory. The works are sensory\, physical\, immediate\, reaffirming\, and deeply expressive. Viewers to this exhibition are invited to touch the work. \n\nDuring her residency\, the artist and her support team\, which includes her mother and translator\, will engage directly with students in the exhibition space\, offering a transformative experience based on human expression and connection through art. Because Ericka feels most comfortable when she is working\, she plans to make artwork with students as part of the class engagements with the exhibition.\n\nAbout Ericka Lopez\nBorn 1987 in Mexico\, Ericka Lopez has been making art at Tierra del Sol Studios since 2019. Working across ceramic\, fiber\, and mixed media constructions\, Lopez’s practice is centralized around her exploration of touch. Lopez was born with limited vision and is now completely blind. Lopez trained in massage therapy and previously volunteered at a soup kitchen when an encounter with Tierra’s ceramics studio shifted her trajectory toward fine art. Her masterful command of clay hand-building techniques enables Lopez to create intricate\, dynamic\, and organically structured coil vessels. Lopez’s works are informed by her finite recollection of color\; she requests specific shades and combinations of glazes that generate spontaneous\, distinctive surfaces when fired. This intuitive approach continues in her fiber wall works and mixed media sculptures. Utilizing punch rug embroidery\, Lopez creates abstract fields of yarn and found objects\, often repeatedly punching through the same area to yield densely layered sections. Lopez has learned to identify the color of her materials via scent and feel\, a process that is difficult to put into words. Her mixed media sculptures are created almost entirely by touch\, consisting of threads\, buttons\, beads\, fabric scraps\, and found objects instinctively stitched together using simple sewing techniques. Lopez hopes her works can be experienced through an inquiry of touch.\n\nEricka Lopez has exhibited her artwork at Laband Gallery and Tierra del Sol Gallery in Los Angeles\, CA. Lopez’s debut solo exhibition\, “Continuous Touch\,” was curated by jill moniz for Tierra del Sol Gallery in the Spring of 2023. She has had works acquired by notable private collections such as that of Beth DeWoody and by the Kleefeld Contemporary Art Museum at UC Long Beach.
