The series was developed by the Faculty Senate Office, is supported by the Office of the Provost, and is co-sponsored by Librarian Mary Lawrence.\n", "occurrence_notes":null, "guid":"142990-21891922@events.umich.edu", "permalink":"http:\/\/events.umich.edu\/event\/142990", "building_id":"", "building_name":"", "campus_maps_id":"", "room":"", "location_name":"Hatcher Gallery, Hatcher Library", "has_livestream":0, "cost":"", "tags":["Sessions"], "website":"https:\/\/sessions.studentlife.umich.edu\/p\/track\/16035", "sponsors":[ { "group_name":"Sessions @ Michigan", "group_id":"4791", "website":"https:\/\/sessions.studentlife.umich.edu\/" } ], "image_url":"", "styled_images":{ "event_thumb":"", "event_large":"", "event_large_2x":"", "event_large_lightbox":"", "group_thumb":"", "group_thumb_square":"", "group_large":"", "group_large_lightbox":"", "event_large_crop":"", "event_list":"", "event_list_2x":"", "event_grid":"", "event_grid_2x":"", "event_feature_large":"", "event_feature_thumb":"" }, "occurrence_count":1, "first_occurrence":21891922 } , "142773-21891462": { "datetime_modified":"20251215T165341", "datetime_start":"20260226T090000", "datetime_end":"20260226T170000", "has_end_time":1, "date_start":"2026-02-26", "date_end":"2026-02-26", "time_start":"09:00:00", "time_end":"17:00:00", "time_zone":"America\/Detroit", "event_title":"Lynn Galbreath Exhibition", "occurrence_title":"", "combined_title":"Lynn Galbreath Exhibition: Twenty-two paintings from the series \u201cTelegraph\u201d, \u201cWorking Hard For A Living\u201d, and Storyboard\u201d", "event_subtitle":"Twenty-two paintings from the series \u201cTelegraph\u201d, \u201cWorking Hard For A Living\u201d, and Storyboard\u201d", "event_type":"Exhibition", "event_type_id":"7", "description":"Lynn Galbreath, a Detroit based artist who grew up in Argentina, is a former recipient of the Creative Artists\u2019 Grant from the Arts Foundation of Michigan and the Michigan Individual Artist Grant from Michigan Council For The Arts. Galbreath\u2019s work has been showcased locally, nationally and internationally in over 20 solo\/two person and over 100 group exhibitions.\r\n\r\nGalbreath has an M.F.A. from the James Pearson Duffy Department of Art, Art History, & Design, Wayne State University, Detroit, MI; and a B.F.A. with Permanent K-12 Certification from The Gwen Frostic School of Art, Western MI University, Kalamazoo, MI. Galbreath has chaperoned eleven intensive, immersive art experiences to Italy, Spain, France, Belgium, England, Germany, the Netherlands, Austria, and the Czech Republic. Lynn is a retired Adjunct Associate Professor of Studio Art from Oakland University, where she has been on the faculty of the Department of Art & Art History since 2000. Lynn has also instructed studio art and design at the College For Creative Studies, University of Detroit Mercy \u2014 School of Architecture, Macomb Community College, Wayne State University, and Bloomfield University School. Her work can be seen in the collections of Oakland University, Wayne State University, Detroit Receiving Hospital, Children\u2019s Hospital of Michigan, Pontiac Osteopathic Hospital and numerous private collections.\r\n\r\nThis exhibition consists of works from a variety of series created by Galbreath over the years: Telegraph, Storyboard, and Working Hard for a Living. Each series represents a unique exploration of themes, techniques, and social commentaries that reflect Galbreath\u2019s artistic journey and concerns for the world.\r\n\r\nTelegraph explores the aesthetic visual weights and balances between harmony and content, diving deep into how visual elements can convey messages and emotions. This series invites viewers to reflect on the way art communicates through its formal qualities, as well as its narrative possibilities. The careful interplay of shapes, colors, and textures in these works prompts an examination of the viewer's perception and emotional response. By utilizing abstract forms, Galbreath encourages an engagement that goes beyond mere observation, seeking to provoke thought about how aesthetic choices influence understanding and meaning.\r\n\r\nOn the other hand, Storyboard is a series of image-driven installation paintings that vary greatly in size, showcasing Galbreath\u2019s versatility and creative ingenuity. The titles of the works draw inspiration from the years spent creating visuals for TV commercials and public service announcements, illustrating how commercial art often intertwines with societal messages. This series emphasizes the profound impact visual narratives have on consumer culture and public perception, underscoring the artist's belief in the potency of imagery to shape narratives. The installations weave a complex fabric of storytelling that challenges viewers to reconsider their relationship with media and the messages they consume daily.\r\n\r\nWorking Hard for a Living pays tribute to our sustainable and unsustainable resources, shedding light on the individuals who toil diligently within these economic frameworks. This series highlights the hard-working suppliers of essential products, including Farm Market Managers, Fishmongers, and Beach Vendors. By portraying these self-employed individuals, often operating within informal economies, Galbreath draws attention to the unique challenges they face. These individuals frequently contend with low, inconsistent incomes, long hours, and sometimes exploitative conditions, fostering a sense of solidarity with those who labor under such circumstances.\r\n\r\nFurthermore, the series invites viewers to confront the broader societal structures that contribute to these inequities. Galbreath's work serves not only as a tribute but also as a call to action to consider how our consumer habits and economic policies affect the livelihoods of others. The layered narratives present in this series open a dialogue about the value we place on labor and the often unseen struggles that support our day-to-day lives. Through these explorations, Galbreath establishes a multifaceted narrative that intertwines art with activism, compelling audiences to engage both aesthetically and ethically with the realities depicted in the exhibition.", "occurrence_notes":"Hours Mon-Fri 9 am to 5 pm or by appointment (serrag@med.umich.edu)", "guid":"142773-21891462@events.umich.edu", "permalink":"http:\/\/events.umich.edu\/event\/142773", "building_id":"0", "building_name":"North Campus Research Complex Building 18", "campus_maps_id":"595", "room":"Rotunda Gallery", "location_name":"North Campus Research Complex Building 18", "has_livestream":0, "cost":"", "tags":["Free","Art","ArtsEngine","Culture","Detroit","Exhibition","North Campus","Visual Arts"], "website":"", "sponsors":[ { "group_name":"North Campus Research Complex NCRC Art Program", "group_id":"5062", "website":"https:\/\/ncrc.umich.edu\/life-ncrc\/occupant-amenities\/art-program" } ], "image_url":"https:\/\/events.umich.edu\/media\/attachments\/2025\/12\/event_142773_original-1.jpg", "styled_images":{ "event_thumb":"https:\/\/events.umich.edu\/media\/cache\/event_thumb\/media\/attachments\/2025\/12\/event_142773_original-1.jpg", "event_large":"https:\/\/events.umich.edu\/media\/cache\/event_large\/media\/attachments\/2025\/12\/event_142773_original-1.jpg", "event_large_2x":"https:\/\/events.umich.edu\/media\/cache\/event_large_2x\/media\/attachments\/2025\/12\/event_142773_original-1.jpg", "event_large_lightbox":"https:\/\/events.umich.edu\/media\/cache\/event_large_lightbox\/media\/attachments\/2025\/12\/event_142773_original-1.jpg", "group_thumb":"https:\/\/events.umich.edu\/media\/cache\/group_thumb\/media\/attachments\/2025\/12\/event_142773_original-1.jpg", "group_thumb_square":"https:\/\/events.umich.edu\/media\/cache\/group_thumb_square\/media\/attachments\/2025\/12\/event_142773_original-1.jpg", "group_large":"https:\/\/events.umich.edu\/media\/cache\/group_large\/media\/attachments\/2025\/12\/event_142773_original-1.jpg", "group_large_lightbox":"https:\/\/events.umich.edu\/media\/cache\/group_large_lightbox\/media\/attachments\/2025\/12\/event_142773_original-1.jpg", "event_large_crop":"https:\/\/events.umich.edu\/media\/cache\/event_large_crop\/media\/attachments\/2025\/12\/event_142773_original-1.jpg", "event_list":"https:\/\/events.umich.edu\/media\/cache\/event_list\/media\/attachments\/2025\/12\/event_142773_original-1.jpg", "event_list_2x":"https:\/\/events.umich.edu\/media\/cache\/event_list_2x\/media\/attachments\/2025\/12\/event_142773_original-1.jpg", "event_grid":"https:\/\/events.umich.edu\/media\/cache\/event_grid\/media\/attachments\/2025\/12\/event_142773_original-1.jpg", "event_grid_2x":"https:\/\/events.umich.edu\/media\/cache\/event_grid_2x\/media\/attachments\/2025\/12\/event_142773_original-1.jpg", "event_feature_large":"https:\/\/events.umich.edu\/media\/cache\/event_feature_large\/media\/attachments\/2025\/12\/event_142773_original-1.jpg", "event_feature_thumb":"https:\/\/events.umich.edu\/media\/cache\/event_feature_thumb\/media\/attachments\/2025\/12\/event_142773_original-1.jpg" }, "occurrence_count":59, "first_occurrence":21891438 } , "142417-21890870": { "datetime_modified":"20251212T105136", "datetime_start":"20260226T090000", "datetime_end":"20260226T200000", "has_end_time":1, "date_start":"2026-02-26", "date_end":"2026-02-26", "time_start":"09:00:00", "time_end":"20:00:00", "time_zone":"America\/Detroit", "event_title":"Materia Magica: Materiality and Ritual in the Greco-Roman World", "occurrence_title":"", "combined_title":"Materia Magica: Materiality and Ritual in the Greco-Roman World", "event_subtitle":"", "event_type":"Exhibition", "event_type_id":"7", "description":"View a diverse array of artifacts which were created to communicate with and call upon various unseen, supernatural forces for aid and protection. While the objects on display are disparate at first glance, ranging from lead tablets and amulets to papyrus and parchment leaves, they all share a common thread: they have long been labeled as \"magical\" in traditional Western scholarship.\r\n\r\nHowever, each of these artifacts is better understood on a broad spectrum of ancient ritual, from subversive and transgressive acts to highly social and visible ones.
