SUMMARY:Exhibition:Fluxus and the Essential Questions of Life
DESCRIPTION:Fluxus emerged in the early 1960s as a loose\, international network of artists\, composers\, and designers-\"led\" by Lithuanian-born American artist George Maciunas (1931-1978)- that was noted for blurring the boundaries between art and life. Fluxus artists like Maciunas\, Nam June Paik\, George Brecht\, and Yoko Ono\, among many others\, challenged the notion of high art by creating unassuming\, often humorous objects and performances that redefined the terms of artistic production by demonstrating the idea that \"anything can be art and anyone can do it.\" Because of their disregard for traditional artistic media\, many of the objects in the exhibition are-often by design-acutely resistant to conventional forms of museum display. Variously conceived as carriers of ideas\, absurdist send-ups of consumer products\, and invitations to direct\, playful participation by the viewer\, these works attempt to undermine the idea that art is separate from the activity of living one's life. Through 116 works\, Fluxus and the Essential Questions of Life will introduce visitors to the study and appreciation of art as an exciting and intellectually rewarding experience\, and to the notion that art is something that can play an active role in their own approaches to life's essential questions.\n\nThis exhibition was organized by the Hood Museum of Art and was generously supported by Constance and Walter Burke\, Dartmouth College Class of 1944\, the Marie-Louise and Samuel R. Rosenthal Fund\, and the Ray Winfield Smith 1918 Fund. UMMA's installation is made possible in part by the University of Michigan Health System\, the University of Michigan Office of the Provost\, Arts at Michigan\, and the CEW Frances and Sydney Lewis Visiting Leaders Fund.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Robert Wilson: Video 50
DESCRIPTION:The tiny dramas that comprise Robert Wilson's Video 50 contain aspects of his hallmark aesthetic: surreal or dream-like imagery\, the absence of a linear narrative\, the conflation of seemingly unrelated characters and micro-stories\, and a mesmerizingly slow pace. Video 50 consists of a randomly arranged set of 30-second \"episodes\,\" a few of which feature notable French personalities of the 1970s-perfumier Hélène Rochas stares down a mugger\, culture minister Michel Guy struggles to open a dresser drawer-and Wilson thought of these as miniature portraits or character studies. The creator and director of aggressively experimental theater\, Wilson first came to prominence with works from the mid-1970s such as The Life and Times of Joseph Stalin (1973) and Einstein on the Beach (1976). These lavish\, unusually long productions broke and then redefined every convention of theater. In Video 50 his shorter time-based portraits explore the intersection of narrative and still-life\, seductively dissolving the distance between viewer and subject.

SUMMARY:Performance:Michigan Sahana presents Swaranjali
DESCRIPTION:Swaranjali is a free Indian classical music and dance concert presenting many different styles and types of art forms - including\, but not limited to\, nine different types of classical East Indian dance and South Asian (Pakistani\, Persian\, and Indian) vocal and instrumental music. The event showcases an amalgamation of cultural arts and is sure to broaden the global knowledge of the audience. It brings together various communities based solely on each community's passion for the arts - putting aside extraneous barriers. This event will expose audience members to unique forms of art - in fact\, more than just being a night of entertainment\, the event is an enriching experience. The pieces presented cover a broad range - from the purely classical dance forms of Bharatanatyam from South India and Odissi from North India to the fusion of Persian\, Pakistani\, Indian\, and Western vocal and instrumental musical compositions.\n \nMichigan Sahana seeks to both spread awareness of a unique culture of art styles as well as have a positive impact on the lives of students by broadening their knowledge and perspectives about global culture. Additionally\, it has been scientifically researched and proven that music and the arts can enhance and develop brain function - this is known as the Mozart Effect. A night of culturally-influenced classical arts will have a positive effect on many other aspects of students' lives and learning experiences.\n\nThis event is cosponsored by UMMA's Student Programming and Advisory Council.

The creator and director of aggressively experimental theater\, Wilson first came to prominence with works from the mid-1970s such as The Life and Times of Joseph Stalin (1973) and Einstein on the Beach (1976). These lavish\, unusually long productions broke and then redefined every convention of theater. In Video 50 his shorter time-based portraits explore the intersection of narrative and still-life\, seductively dissolving the distance between viewer and subject.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Fluxus and the Essential Questions of Life
DESCRIPTION:Fluxus emerged in the early 1960s as a loose\, international network of artists\, composers\, and designers-\"led\" by Lithuanian-born American artist George Maciunas (1931-1978)- that was noted for blurring the boundaries between art and life. Fluxus artists like Maciunas\, Nam June Paik\, George Brecht\, and Yoko Ono\, among many others\, challenged the notion of high art by creating unassuming\, often humorous objects and performances that redefined the terms of artistic production by demonstrating the idea that \"anything can be art and anyone can do it.\" Because of their disregard for traditional artistic media\, many of the objects in the exhibition are-often by design-acutely resistant to conventional forms of museum display. Variously conceived as carriers of ideas\, absurdist send-ups of consumer products\, and invitations to direct\, playful participation by the viewer\, these works attempt to undermine the idea that art is separate from the activity of living one's life. Through 116 works\, Fluxus and the Essential Questions of Life will introduce visitors to the study and appreciation of art as an exciting and intellectually rewarding experience\, and to the notion that art is something that can play an active role in their own approaches to life's essential questions.\n\nThis exhibition was organized by the Hood Museum of Art and was generously supported by Constance and Walter Burke\, Dartmouth College Class of 1944\, the Marie-Louise and Samuel R. Rosenthal Fund\, and the Ray Winfield Smith 1918 Fund. UMMA's installation is made possible in part by the University of Michigan Health System\, the University of Michigan Office of the Provost\, Arts at Michigan\, and the CEW Frances and Sydney Lewis Visiting Leaders Fund.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:2011-2012 Fellows Lecture and Exhibition Opening
DESCRIPTION:Taubman College of Architecture and Urban Planning at the University of Michigan offers three fellowships in the areas of architectural research and instruction. Each of the fellowships includes teaching related to the candidate's area of interest\, resources for the development of work\, possibilities to interface with scholars and researchers in the wider university context\, and the opportunity to share the outcome of the fellowship with the College. Fellows spend one year in residence and teach three classes in addition to pursuing their fellowship interests.\n\nWilliam Muschenheim Fellowship: James Macgillivray\nFilm to Wit: A Menagerie\n\nThe slow death of the medium of film calls for a drawn-out moment of reflection. What was film? By the same token\, what were its constituent spaces?\n\nThe generalist might see “filmic space” as the fruits of the kinship of Eisenstein and Le Corbusier\, both of them walking in parallax around the precincts of the Acropolis. Le Corbusier moves with the smoothness of the architectural promenade\, Eisenstein sees collision in the succession of architectural images. Other figures exist in the pantheon of film\, but must be drawn out.\n\nThis work does not generalize but lays out a handful of these examples as in a cabinet of curiosities. Spheres\, pyramids\, tapestries\, lattices and prisms among others\, all are latent in what is now the “last machine\,” the film.\n\nWalter B. Sanders Fellow: Etienne Turpin\nStainlessness\n\nStainlessness recuperates the tradition of the architectural ”˜capriccio’ as a means to emphasize the history of labor movements in North America and to make legible the physical semblance of these movements in cities including Sudbury\, Chicago\, Pittsburgh\, and Detroit. While processes of urbanization have all but erased these struggles from our cities and left only ambivalent monuments to mark the past\, the narrative of Stainlessness and its contemporary ”˜capriccios’ assert the centrality of labor as a force capable of transforming the nature of cities\, the culture of America\, and the geologic deep-time marked by the Anthropocene.\n\nWillard A. Oberdick Fellow: Kyle Reynolds\nSymptomatic: Indexical Techniques for a Revitalized Cincinnati\n\nStemming from an interest in the way in which architecture presents itself to the public\, this project investigates a renewed potential of indexical techniques of design at three scales: the city\, the building\, and the detail. Previous uses of the index have focused on its ability to trace processes or historical contexts but almost exclusively produced work that looked backward and referred to existing conditions. Symptomatic posits that indexical techniques can be projective in their deployment. They can collapse time and space between a sign and its referent and in many cases can reverse that order entirely. The symptomatic index is not a return to a legibility of sign nor is it advocating for an autonomous formal agenda. Its potential is in its ability to produce new atmospheres and alter stagnant contexts with techniques that range from extensive ephemeral figuration to intensive building construction.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Fluxus and the Essential Questions of Life
DESCRIPTION:Fluxus emerged in the early 1960s as a loose\, international network of artists\, composers\, and designers-\"led\" by Lithuanian-born American artist George Maciunas (1931-1978)- that was noted for blurring the boundaries between art and life. Fluxus artists like Maciunas\, Nam June Paik\, George Brecht\, and Yoko Ono\, among many others\, challenged the notion of high art by creating unassuming\, often humorous objects and performances that redefined the terms of artistic production by demonstrating the idea that \"anything can be art and anyone can do it.\" Because of their disregard for traditional artistic media\, many of the objects in the exhibition are-often by design-acutely resistant to conventional forms of museum display. Variously conceived as carriers of ideas\, absurdist send-ups of consumer products\, and invitations to direct\, playful participation by the viewer\, these works attempt to undermine the idea that art is separate from the activity of living one's life. Through 116 works\, Fluxus and the Essential Questions of Life will introduce visitors to the study and appreciation of art as an exciting and intellectually rewarding experience\, and to the notion that art is something that can play an active role in their own approaches to life's essential questions.\n\nThis exhibition was organized by the Hood Museum of Art and was generously supported by Constance and Walter Burke\, Dartmouth College Class of 1944\, the Marie-Louise and Samuel R. Rosenthal Fund\, and the Ray Winfield Smith 1918 Fund. UMMA's installation is made possible in part by the University of Michigan Health System\, the University of Michigan Office of the Provost\, Arts at Michigan\, and the CEW Frances and Sydney Lewis Visiting Leaders Fund.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Robert Wilson: Video 50
DESCRIPTION:The tiny dramas that comprise Robert Wilson's Video 50 contain aspects of his hallmark aesthetic: surreal or dream-like imagery\, the absence of a linear narrative\, the conflation of seemingly unrelated characters and micro-stories\, and a mesmerizingly slow pace. Video 50 consists of a randomly arranged set of 30-second \"episodes\,\" a few of which feature notable French personalities of the 1970s-perfumier Hélène Rochas stares down a mugger\, culture minister Michel Guy struggles to open a dresser drawer-and Wilson thought of these as miniature portraits or character studies. The creator and director of aggressively experimental theater\, Wilson first came to prominence with works from the mid-1970s such as The Life and Times of Joseph Stalin (1973) and Einstein on the Beach (1976). These lavish\, unusually long productions broke and then redefined every convention of theater. In Video 50 his shorter time-based portraits explore the intersection of narrative and still-life\, seductively dissolving the distance between viewer and subject.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:Institute for the Humanities Brown Bag
DESCRIPTION:In this talk author Imraan Coovadia looks at a type of butterfly Nabokov was particularly interested in\, the Kallima genus\, and shows that it belonged to a class of “puzzle pictures” which were central to German gestalt psychology during Nabokov’s Berlin period. Coovadia argues that Lolita itself\, with the switching perspectives it imposes on the reader and critic alike\, can be seen as a kind of “puzzle picture\,” and that understanding the novel in this way helps resolve a series of critical disputes about the narrative and Nabokovian style\, about the morality and immorality of reading\, and about the mechanism by which fiction engages our feelings. Coovadia suggests that\, along with Great Expectations\, Lolita is the book which most radically investigates the forces of wish fulfillment and projected desire that bring a reader into the text.\n\n

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Fluxus and the Essential Questions of Life
DESCRIPTION:Fluxus emerged in the early 1960s as a loose\, international network of artists\, composers\, and designers-\"led\" by Lithuanian-born American artist George Maciunas (1931-1978)- that was noted for blurring the boundaries between art and life. Fluxus artists like Maciunas\, Nam June Paik\, George Brecht\, and Yoko Ono\, among many others\, challenged the notion of high art by creating unassuming\, often humorous objects and performances that redefined the terms of artistic production by demonstrating the idea that \"anything can be art and anyone can do it.\" Because of their disregard for traditional artistic media\, many of the objects in the exhibition are-often by design-acutely resistant to conventional forms of museum display. Variously conceived as carriers of ideas\, absurdist send-ups of consumer products\, and invitations to direct\, playful participation by the viewer\, these works attempt to undermine the idea that art is separate from the activity of living one's life. Through 116 works\, Fluxus and the Essential Questions of Life will introduce visitors to the study and appreciation of art as an exciting and intellectually rewarding experience\, and to the notion that art is something that can play an active role in their own approaches to life's essential questions.\n\nThis exhibition was organized by the Hood Museum of Art and was generously supported by Constance and Walter Burke\, Dartmouth College Class of 1944\, the Marie-Louise and Samuel R. Rosenthal Fund\, and the Ray Winfield Smith 1918 Fund. UMMA's installation is made possible in part by the University of Michigan Health System\, the University of Michigan Office of the Provost\, Arts at Michigan\, and the CEW Frances and Sydney Lewis Visiting Leaders Fund.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Robert Wilson: Video 50
DESCRIPTION:The tiny dramas that comprise Robert Wilson's Video 50 contain aspects of his hallmark aesthetic: surreal or dream-like imagery\, the absence of a linear narrative\, the conflation of seemingly unrelated characters and micro-stories\, and a mesmerizingly slow pace. Video 50 consists of a randomly arranged set of 30-second \"episodes\,\" a few of which feature notable French personalities of the 1970s-perfumier Hélène Rochas stares down a mugger\, culture minister Michel Guy struggles to open a dresser drawer-and Wilson thought of these as miniature portraits or character studies. The creator and director of aggressively experimental theater\, Wilson first came to prominence with works from the mid-1970s such as The Life and Times of Joseph Stalin (1973) and Einstein on the Beach (1976). These lavish\, unusually long productions broke and then redefined every convention of theater. In Video 50 his shorter time-based portraits explore the intersection of narrative and still-life\, seductively dissolving the distance between viewer and subject.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:EEB Thursday Seminar Series
DESCRIPTION:Sexual conflict is expected to be widespread in nature as males and females do not fully share their evolutionary interests. In waterfowl sexual conflict over forced copulations has led to the antagonistic evolution of genital traits that result from an evolutionary arms race as males try to bypass female choice. Females have regained control of reproduction in this system where males overpower them by force. Males have evolved a unique erection mechanism\, but females can limit the success of unwanted copulations via the evolution of complex vaginas. Male-male competition appears to be the primary selective agent acting on penis size\, with antagonistic coevolution further increasing complex morphology in the system.\n\nLecture sponsored by the Norman E. Hartweg fund

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:Sandra Waxman: Wizards of Word-Learning: Linguistic and Conceptual Foundations to Infants’ Stunning Success 
DESCRIPTION:Human infants are wizards of word-learning. This talk will describe the conceptual and linguistic capacities that underlie their success. To learn the meaning of any novel word\, infants must set their sights in two distinct directions. Facing the conceptual domain\, they must identify concepts that capture the various relations among the objects and events that they encounter. Facing the linguistic domain\, they must cull words and phrases from the melody of the human language in which they are immersed.\n\nFindings from our laboratory\, among others\, have revealed that even before they begin to speak\, infants’ advances in each of these domains are powerfully linked. This talk will argue that infants begin with a broad universal initial link between the linguistic and conceptual systems\, and that this sets the stage for increasingly precise links between different kinds of words (e.g.\, noun\, verb) and different kinds of meanings. New evidence from infants as young as 3- and 4-months of age will also be presented. Together\, the work reveals that throughout development\, naming is a powerful engine\, fueling the acquisition of the essential\, rich relations that characterize our most powerful concepts.
