The institute was established because faculty members believed that research on women, gender, and sexuality required an institutional commitment to thrive. That belief was itself a form of resistance\u2014to disciplinary silos, to marginalization, to the idea that such scholarship was peripheral.\n\nThis theme reminds us that resistance is not merely reactive; it is constructive. When rooted in collaboration and sustained through infrastructure, it produces knowledge that reshapes disciplines, institutions, and public life.\n\nThis exhibit celebrates 30 years of IRWG\u2014its history, its programs, and the people whose vision and labor built it into what it is today. Through archival materials, milestones, and stories, we trace the evolution of an institute that has continually expanded the boundaries of research in women, gender, and sexuality.\n\nThis exhibit centers growth, collaboration, and intellectual creativity\u2014honoring the sustained efforts, bold ideas, and collective care that have shaped IRWG\u2019s legacy and continue to guide its future.\n\nHosted and sponsored by the Institute for Research on Women and Gender and the Department of Women\u2019s and Gender Studies, U-M. \n\nLocated on the first floor of Lane Hall (204 S.

These paintings serve as a visual record of Detroit\u2019s transformation, capturing humanity\u2019s impact on the environment alongside nature\u2019s persistent efforts to reclaim these spaces. As the city continues to change, many of these depicted scenes are vanishing, no longer visible in the landscape today. The significance of this documentation goes beyond mere nostalgia; it invites viewers to reflect on the dynamic interplay between urban development and ecological restoration, prompting a deeper understanding of how cities evolve while retaining traces of their history.\r\n\r\nSwafford\u2019s paintings are created on location and in one session. The natural conditions, including light, shadow, and atmosphere, change dramatically from hour to hour and day to day, forcing the artist to respond quickly and decisively. This approach, born of a direct engagement with the subject and the fleeting nature of the scene, along with his wet-on-wet technique, keeps the work fresh and immediate. By immersing himself in the environment, Swafford captures the diverse textures and vibrant colors that characterize Detroit\u2019s landscape, imbuing his work with a sense of urgency and spontaneity. Each brushstroke conveys a commitment not only to visual accuracy but also to emotional resonance, as he strives to encapsulate the spirit of a place that is both loved and contested.\r\n\r\nIn addition to these works, the artist constantly sketches ideas both for paintings and for designing projects in his business. These sketches serve as visual language, helping him clarify and refine his concepts before bringing them to life. They become a means to communicate ideas to clients and his crew and become an extension of his voice\u2014an academic exercise rooted in artistic practice that fosters collaboration and innovation. The act of sketching also reflects his evolving relationship with the city, as each drawing encapsulates fleeting moments of inspiration drawn directly from his surroundings. This duality of function\u2014creating art for exhibition and conceptualizing designs for projects\u2014demonstrates Swafford\u2019s versatility and adaptability as an artist.\r\n\r\nSwafford received a Bachelor of Fine Arts degree in painting from the Rhode Island School of Design, and while at RISD, he was part of the European Honors Program. His education not only honed his technical skills but also broadened his artistic perspective through exposure to varied artistic traditions. He has shown his work in both solo and group exhibitions in Chicago, Kansas City, and New York State. Each exhibition serves as a testament to his commitment to his craft and his ability to engage diverse audiences, offering them an opportunity to explore the complex narratives woven into each landscape.", "occurrence_notes":"Open Mon-Fri, 9am-5pm or by appointment (serrag@med.umich.edu)", "guid":"142768-21891425@events.umich.edu", "permalink":"http:\/\/events.umich.edu\/event\/142768", "building_id":"0", "building_name":"North Campus Research Complex Building 18", "campus_maps_id":"595", "room":"Connections Gallery", "location_name":"North Campus Research Complex Building 18", "has_livestream":0, "cost":"", "tags":["Art","Visual Arts","North Campus","Humanities","Free","Exhibition","Detroit","Culture","ArtsEngine"], "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_142768_original-1.jpg", "styled_images":{ "event_thumb":"https:\/\/events.umich.edu\/media\/cache\/event_thumb\/media\/attachments\/2025\/12\/event_142768_original-1.jpg", "event_large":"https:\/\/events.umich.edu\/media\/cache\/event_large\/media\/attachments\/2025\/12\/event_142768_original-1.jpg", "event_large_2x":"https:\/\/events.umich.edu\/media\/cache\/event_large_2x\/media\/attachments\/2025\/12\/event_142768_original-1.jpg", "event_large_lightbox":"https:\/\/events.umich.edu\/media\/cache\/event_large_lightbox\/media\/attachments\/2025\/12\/event_142768_original-1.jpg", "group_thumb":"https:\/\/events.umich.edu\/media\/cache\/group_thumb\/media\/attachments\/2025\/12\/event_142768_original-1.jpg", "group_thumb_square":"https:\/\/events.umich.edu\/media\/cache\/group_thumb_square\/media\/attachments\/2025\/12\/event_142768_original-1.jpg", "group_large":"https:\/\/events.umich.edu\/media\/cache\/group_large\/media\/attachments\/2025\/12\/event_142768_original-1.jpg", "group_large_lightbox":"https:\/\/events.umich.edu\/media\/cache\/group_large_lightbox\/media\/attachments\/2025\/12\/event_142768_original-1.jpg", "event_large_crop":"https:\/\/events.umich.edu\/media\/cache\/event_large_crop\/media\/attachments\/2025\/12\/event_142768_original-1.jpg", "event_list":"https:\/\/events.umich.edu\/media\/cache\/event_list\/media\/attachments\/2025\/12\/event_142768_original-1.jpg", "event_list_2x":"https:\/\/events.umich.edu\/media\/cache\/event_list_2x\/media\/attachments\/2025\/12\/event_142768_original-1.jpg", "event_grid":"https:\/\/events.umich.edu\/media\/cache\/event_grid\/media\/attachments\/2025\/12\/event_142768_original-1.jpg", "event_grid_2x":"https:\/\/events.umich.edu\/media\/cache\/event_grid_2x\/media\/attachments\/2025\/12\/event_142768_original-1.jpg", "event_feature_large":"https:\/\/events.umich.edu\/media\/cache\/event_feature_large\/media\/attachments\/2025\/12\/event_142768_original-1.jpg", "event_feature_thumb":"https:\/\/events.umich.edu\/media\/cache\/event_feature_thumb\/media\/attachments\/2025\/12\/event_142768_original-1.jpg" }, "occurrence_count":59, "first_occurrence":21891351 } , "146775-21899607": { "datetime_modified":"20260319T144420", "datetime_start":"20260417T090000", "datetime_end":"20260417T113000", "has_end_time":1, "date_start":"2026-04-17", "date_end":"2026-04-17", "time_start":"09:00:00", "time_end":"11:30:00", "time_zone":"America\/Detroit", "event_title":"The Michigan Model for Siting Renewable Energy: Policy, Implementation, and Impact", "occurrence_title":"", "combined_title":"The Michigan Model for Siting Renewable Energy: Policy, Implementation, and Impact", "event_subtitle":"", "event_type":"Conference \/ Symposium", "event_type_id":"5", "description":"The Michigan Model for Siting Renewable Energy: Policy, Implementation, and Impacts will examine how renewable energy siting policy moves from concept to practice, using Michigan\u2019s experience as a case study with national relevance.

This session will situate Michigan\u2019s experience within broader political, regulatory, and community dynamics influencing renewable energy deployment nationwide.\n\nThe focus will then shift to Michigan, with Dan Scripps, chair of the Michigan Public Service Commission (MPSC), taking us back to the Fall of 2023, describing the origins of the Michigan model in Public Act 233 of 2023 (PA 233). He will talk about what prompted the move to reform the state\u2019s siting laws, and what priorities shaped the law that emerged. \n\nMadeleine Krol from UM\u2019s Center for EmPowering Communities will then outline in detail the mechanics of the Michigan model, describing the three primary permitting pathways for large-scale projects in the state. She will also discuss how the Renewables Ready Communities Award, which provides a financial incentive to local governments that permit projects locally, is an integral part of the Michigan model. \n\nThe symposium will conclude with a panel discussion featuring Sarah Mullkoff (Michigan Public Service Commission), Laura Sherman (Michigan Energy Innovation Business Council), and Catherine Kaufman (Bauckham, Thall, Seeber, Kaufman & Koches PC), leaders from varied viewpoints who were each influential in shaping the implementation of PA 233.
