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. Nina Katchadourian is represented by Catharine Clark Gallery.\r\n\r\nNina Katchadourian\u2019s University of Michigan visit is the result of a collaboration between the Institute for the Humanities and the Armenian Studies Program.", "occurrence_notes":null, "guid":"28557-2757611@events.umich.edu", "permalink":"http:\/\/events.umich.edu\/event\/28557", "building_id":"1005179", "building_name":"202 S.

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,

(1987) argument that the race differential in the frequency of marriage results from a shortage of marriageable men in the African-American community. Previous investigators have approached this problem by measuring the local availability of eligible male marriage partners for black women. These studies have found a comparatively small but significant impact of the availability of marriageable black men on black women\u2019s marriage rates. My analysis simplifies the problem by evaluating the effects of economic characteristics of young white and black men on their own marriage behavior since 1960. I use multiple standardization and decomposition methods to assess the impact of race differences in income, occupation, employment status, institutional residence, and education.
