Katchadourian considers the ongoing quandary of where we really come from, who we are, trying to isolate our sense of ourselves in counterpoint with the way people define or judge us based upon their assumptions. It is, of course, the unique combination of things that offers our most comprehensive and authentic self-reflection, not one thing or another, and this amalgamation is to some degree indecipherable.\r\n\r\n\r\nAlthough they have lived in the United States for over 45 years, Katchadourian\u2019s foreign-born parents both have distinctive but hard-to-place accents that the artist has never been able to imitate correctly. Inspired by posters around New York advertising courses in \u201caccent elimination,\u201d Katchadourian decided to hire a professional who could teach her to speak in each of her parents\u2019 accents and teach them to speak with a so-called \u201cstandard American accent.\u201d Katchadourian and her parents took intensive lessons with accent coach Sam Chwat at his office every other day for several weeks, and also practiced in the artist\u2019s studio between lessons. They worked with two scripts: one written by her mother and the other by her father, both modeled on the typical conversation that each of them has when talking with a stranger who notices an accent and is curious about its origins.\r\n\r\nKatchadourian plays the part of the stranger. The dialogues are first performed in everyone\u2019s natural accents, then at the end of the piece, after much practice and struggle, they attempt to perform the\r\nsame scripts\u2014in the best version they can muster\u2014of their new accents.\r\n\r\nIn light of recent and all-too-familiar seismic political shifts consumed with \u201cotherness,\u201d and building walls rather than bringing them down, Accent Elimination feels especially prescient. It reminds us there\r\nare so many layers that comprise our cultural identities, stacked up like markers, artifacts of our points of origin as well as our extraordinary journeys. It is an ongoing and painstaking process as to what we save and what we lose along the way by choice, necessity, or circumstance. And in all of this, perhaps we discover ourselves on common ground.\r\n\r\nAccent Elimination was included at the 2015 Venice Biennale in the Armenian pavilion, which won the Golden Lion for Best National Participation.

Oscillating between analog methods (ink, paint, tape) and digital processes (scanning, photoshop filtering, milling), this project intensifies attributes of drawing otherwise lost in translation. A series of 1:1 investigations harnesses the potency of these effects and uses them to emphasize, deemphasize, or reconstitute existing architectural conditions. The results of these studies are reassembled in the gallery as a room\u2013\u2013one fragment of an unfinished building\u2013\u2013that speaks to the instability of its own representation.\r\n\r\nTeam members: Andrew Barkhouse, Peter Watkins\r\nWith assistance from: Chris Campbell, Samantha Eng, Matt Culver, Asa Peller, Tafhim Rahman\r\n\r\n\r\nAshley Bigham - Walter B. Sanders Fellow\r\n\r\nSafety Not Guaranteed\r\nArchitecture is inseparable from defense. From its most primitive and revered \u201corigins,\u201d architecture was rehearsed in environments of conflict. As an alternative to the term defense architecture, a category which typically refers to forms and types (fortresses, citadels, bastions, urban walls), this project proposes the idea of an architecture of defense. An architecture of defense sees all of architecture as a reaction to some measure of paranoia and studies the built environment to recognize measures and methods used to subdue these fears. Safety Not Guaranteed explores the architecture of paranoia through a series of design manipulations and exaggerations. Its setting is the network of suburbia and everyday domestic scenes\u2014spaces most commonly associated with privacy, safety, and security and where fortification occurs on the scale of the front door, the home, the cul-de-sac, and the neighborhood.\r\n\r\nTeam Members: Connor Brindza, James Howe, Neall Oliver, Sasha Pfeiffer, Mark Boynton, Kamsy Anyachebelu\r\n\r\n\r\nDavid Eskenazi - Willard A. Oberdick Fellow\r\n\r\nFor the Trees\r\nAt first I noticed how naked the papers were, since they didn\u2019t seem to be acting like something else. I guess they were supposed to be models, it was an architecture exhibit after all, but they were missing all those things that point elsewhere: no doors, no windows, nothing that particularly looks like anything but itself. They were formed, sure, but that\u2019s not really enough to point outwards. Or is it? Before you answer, there was one more thing: some of the papers were near an enlarged duplicate. Actually, maybe they were shrunken copies. It was a lot like that moment at the top of Runyon Canyon when you turn around and realize there\u2019s an entire other, slightly smaller Los Angeles behind you. Were you just looking at the original, or the copy? I think the most interesting part is right afterwards when your focus shifts around you to the ground, the dirt, the trees.. all that stuff that frames what you\u2019re looking at, like the base of a model or scale figures or model trees. Come to think of it, the papers did look like trees. But the resemblance is fleeting, and now I\u2019m certain the papers were in fact models pointing around at each other. Or were they in the background, acting like a frame for something else, something that wasn\u2019t there?\r\n\r\n\r\nAbout University of Michigan Taubman College of Architecture and Urban Planning:\r\n\r\nThe Taubman College of Architecture and Urban Planning at the University of Michigan is a leader in interdisciplinary education and research with a focus on creating a more beautiful, inclusive and better built environment.

Julius Caesar, Cicero, Augustus, and Nero all owned villas in this region. With more than 200 objects on loan from Italy, the exhibition focuses on two structures at Oplontis that were buried when Mount Vesuvius erupted in AD 79. One is an enormous luxury villa that may once have belonged to the family of Nero\u2019s second wife Poppaea. The other is a nearby commercial-residential complex\u2014a center for the trade in wine and other produce of villa lands. Together these two establishments speak eloquently of the ways in which the Roman elite built, maintained, and displayed their vast wealth, political power, and social prestige. In presenting a selection of impressive works of art along with ordinary utilitarian objects, the exhibition also calls attention to Roman disparities of wealth, social class, and consumption. Such disparities were as problematic for Roman society as they are for ours today.\r\n\r\nThis exhibition in Ann Arbor will remain open to the public until May 15, 2016. It will also be shown at the Museum of the Rockies at the Montana State University, Bozeman (June 17-December 31, 2016) and the Smith College Museum of Art in Northampton, Massachusetts (February 3-August 13, 2017).\r\n\r\nOplontis inv. 73412a: Image of gold and emerald necklace courtesy of Pio Foglia, Fotographica Foglia s.a.s.", "occurrence_notes":null,

In this exhibit, African-American quilters from the Great Lakes region interpret how plants, gardens, and nature are embedded in cultural awareness and expressions of health. The exhibit includes contemporary works that express cultural legacy based in the art of quilting related to individual and shared healing. Students from Flint's Eagle's Nest Academy also contributed works for display in the exhibit.
