SUMMARY:Exhibition:Flip Your Field: Abstract Art From the Collection
DESCRIPTION:This is the inaugural exhibition of a new series of exhibitions to be curated by UM faculty. Entitled Flip Your Field\, this series asks these guest curators to consider artwork outside their field of specialization from UMMA's renowned collections to challenge their own thinking as well as that of UMMA's audiences. Celeste Brusati\, Professor of History of Art\, Women's Studies\, and Art and Design\, an expert in the visual art and culture of the Netherlands from the fifteenth through the seventeenth centuries\, has gathered a compelling group of images by such titans of twentieth-century abstraction as Lee Bontecou\, Helen Frankenthaler\, Wassily Kandinsky\, Joan Miró\, Robert Motherwell\, and Antonio Tàpies\, as well as works by many other unexpected artists.\n\nThis exhibition is made possible in part by the Andrew W. Mellon Foundation.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Judith Turner: The Flatness of Ambiguity
DESCRIPTION:Judith Turner is a noted American photographer whose subject matter is mostly architecture. Turner's training as a designer allows her to visually understand an architect's intention and to reveal it in compositions that she constructs and edits through her camera work. Her photography can be seen as a metalanguage of architectural intention and as an artistic expression that is inseparable from the representation of the built work. Turner's signature style consists of highly abstract black-and-white compositions that play with the ambiguity of light\, shadow\, and tonality to heighten the aesthetic character of her subject matter and reveal visual relationships not readily apparent. This exhibition will present approximately forty photographs spanning Turner's three-decade career.\n\nThis exhibition is made possible in part by Macy's and the University of Michigan Office of the Provost.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Clip/Stamp/Fold
DESCRIPTION:Researched and organized by a team of Ph.D. candidates in the School of Architecture at Princeton University led by Professor Beatriz Colomina. The team included: Craig Buckley\, Anthony Fontenot\, Urtzi Grau\, Lisa Hsieh\, Alicia Imperiale\, Lydia Kallipoliti\, Olympia Kazi\, Daniel Lopez-Perez\, and Irene Sunwoo.\n\nThis exhibition tracks the critical function of independent architectural publications that were the engine of an intensely creative period of experimental architectural practice in the 1960s and 1970s. Known as \"little magazines\,\" the periodicals that proliferated during this period appeared in response to the political\, social and artistic changes of the time. The show includes manifestoes\, pamphlets\, building instruction manuals\, and a survey of magazine covers as well as professional magazines\, complemented by interviews with editors and designers of these publications.\n\nGenerous support for this exhibition was given by The Guido A. Binda Lecture and Exhibition Fund
