Make Yourself At Home.\n \nA Gathering brings together the newest works of art to enter UMMA\u2019s collection \u2014\u00a0many on display here for the first time.\u00a0\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 F\u00e9lix Zamora G\u00f3mez 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\u00a0",

        "description":"Impossible Conversations is an exhibition and film installation by artists and filmmakers, Prat\u0101p Rughani and David Chung. The film centers a seemingly impossible dialogue between Arno Michaelis, a former Neo-Nazi gang founder and Pardeep Kaleka, son of the Sikh Temple President, Satwant Singh Kaleka, one of seven people killed in the shooting attack at the Oak Creek Sikh Temple (Gurudwara) by a white supremacist in 2012. \n \nThe film installation explores what happens when \u2013 for over a decade \u2013 Pardeep and Arno committed to a path of restorative communication - to listen deeply and connect with what motivates each other in the genesis and aftermath of atrocity.\nHow does healing begin? From the toxic polarization, division and extreme racist violence that resulted in one of the worst mass shootings at a religious site in American history, Pardeep insists that complete healing must eventually be a collective process for all, to liberate both sides.\nAt Stamps Gallery, Impossible Conversations will be accompanied by a dialogue and research room as well as photomurals that expand on the themes of restorative justice, gun violence, and how to sustain difficult dialogues to combat extremism and toxic polarization. \nExhibition curated by Srimoyee Mitra. Impossible Conversations has been supported in part by the Arts Research: Incubation &amp; Acceleration (ARIA) program of The University of Michigan Office of the Vice President Research and the Arts Initiative, Institute of Firearm Prevention Pilot Grant, the Stamps School of Art and Design, and the University of the Arts London. \nExhibition Programs\nAn Opening Screening, Talkback, and Reception will take place on Friday, January 17, 2025 from 5:30 \u2013 8 p.m., and a Symposium will take place on Saturday, January 18, 2025 from 10 a.m. - 3:30 p.m. \nAbout the Artists\nPrat\u0101p Rughani is a writer and non-fiction filmmaker. His work develops documentary practice to enable people of radically different perspectives come into relation, sometimes in the aftermath of violence and atrocity for example in South Africa, Aboriginal Australia, Europe, Rwanda and the USA. Configuring a pro-filmic space to enable shared \u201cwitnessing\u201d and the path towards restorative justice is a driving force in \u201cImpossible Conversations\u201d evolving through his practice in over thirty documentary films and exhibitions for BBC TV, Channel 4, Modern Art Oxford, galleries and activist groups. The ethics of giving sustained attention to the experiences of marginalized, excluded or sometimes reviled \u201cothers\u201d and bringing them in relationship to the broader culture is central to his research into ethics of storytelling and the development of \u201cRestorative Narrative.\u201d\nRughani writes widely on the ethics of creative practice, serves on several editorial Boards, has won awards for film, teaching, and research, and is Professor of Documentary Practices at the University of the Arts, London.\nDavid Chung is an acclaimed visual artist and filmmaker. His work focuses on how identities are shaped in immigrant communities and the challenges of refugees as they integrate into new homelands.\nChung has exhibited his drawings, prints, and video installations at the Boston Museum of Fine Arts, the Asia Society, the Walker Arts Center, the Studio Museum in Harlem, the Gwangju Biennale, the Smithsonian Institution, the Los Angeles County Museum of Art, and the Whitney Museum of American Art. Chung has received a National Endowment for the Arts Fellowship and the National Board Film Board of Canada's Award for Best Documentary Film. He was the 2013 Kim Koo Visiting Professor at Harvard University. \nChung is a professor and the director of the MFA Graduate Program at the University of Michigan Penny W. Stamps School of Art &amp; Design.",

        "description":"Organized as a response to the Museum\u2019s recent acquisition of Titus Kaphar\u2019s 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\u2019t 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.\u00a0\u00a0\n \nIn this online exhibition, you can explore our efforts to deeply question the Museum\u2019s collection and our own past complicity in favoring colonial voices. In the Museum gallery, which will open in early 2021, you\u2019ll be able to experience the changes we\u2019re making to the physical space to highlight a more honest version of European and American history.\u00a0\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.\u00a0\n \n\u201cInvisible things are not necessarily \u2018not there\u2019.... 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.\u201d\u00a0\n \n\u2014 Toni Morrison\n\nLead support for Unsettling Histories: Legacies of Slavery and Colonialism\u00a0is provided by the University of Michigan Office of the Provost,\u00a0the U-M Arts Initiative, and the Susan and Richard Gutow Endowed Fund.\n\u00a0",

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

        "description":"Stamps Gallery commissioned Michelle Hinojosa (MFA, 2023) to reimagine the pillars on Division Street that flank the Gallery. Hinojosa has created log cabin quilts to adorn the columns in front of Stamps Gallery. The log cabin quilts traditionally represent the warm hearth at the center of a home. This installation reflects on the interplay between home, placemaking, labor, and intergenerational memories of migration. Rather than quilting cotton designed to softly embrace the body, these quilts are sewn from outdoor grade, UV-resistant polyester. The quilt is an ode to Hinojosa\u2019s 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\u2019s 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).
