SUMMARY:Exhibition:Beautiful Michigan
DESCRIPTION:Visit the Michigan Union Art Lounge to see this art exhibit featuring landscape oil on canvas paintings from some of the most beautiful places in Michigan. \n\nExhibit: “Beautiful Michigan” - Landscape Paintings\, Oil on Canvas\n\nArtist: Anil Dhir\n\nArtist Statement:\nFor a painter\, Michigan offers one of the most beautiful landscapes\, whether here in Ann Arbor\, up-north or anywhere else. These paintings are my attempt to capture some of the Michigan beauty. I believe that a great painting is a like a beautifully composed piece of music.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Canan Tolon Installation: Time After Time
DESCRIPTION:Canan Tolon’s paintings and installations serve as visual records of the passing of time. Each swipe captures the gesture as well as the memory of the gesture\, now already in the past. Each panel appears to duplicate itself beyond any final tally\, proliferating in the room.\n\nUpon first glance\, Tolon’s constructs evoke a sense of freedom in their repetition. They appear infinite\, suggestive of vast open spaces\, like the modern landscapes viewed out of a train window\, or the documentary film reels from the mid- twentieth century. They draw us in\, inviting our dreams and interpretations. In this momentary introspection\, we contemplate our own histories.\n\nThen\, like the first day of any highly anticipated tomorrow\, after the proverbial summer full of expectation”¦expecting things to change\, to be different\, to be new again\, we are struck with a profound disillusionment\, stranded in a place full of promise that never delivers. In a turn\, the world of photographic familiarity Tolon has created collapses in on itself. – Amanda Krugliak\, arts curator\n\nThis Institute for the Humanities original installation was made possible by the generosity of the 2012 Kidder Residency in the Arts. The installation is based on Canan Tolon’s observations and experiences during her time in Ann Arbor\, and many of the materials used are salvage materials from her visits to Detroit architectural yards. \n\n

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.

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.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Canan Tolon Installation: Time After Time
DESCRIPTION:Canan Tolon’s paintings and installations serve as visual records of the passing of time. Each swipe captures the gesture as well as the memory of the gesture\, now already in the past. Each panel appears to duplicate itself beyond any final tally\, proliferating in the room.\n\nUpon first glance\, Tolon’s constructs evoke a sense of freedom in their repetition. They appear infinite\, suggestive of vast open spaces\, like the modern landscapes viewed out of a train window\, or the documentary film reels from the mid- twentieth century. They draw us in\, inviting our dreams and interpretations. In this momentary introspection\, we contemplate our own histories.\n\nThen\, like the first day of any highly anticipated tomorrow\, after the proverbial summer full of expectation”¦expecting things to change\, to be different\, to be new again\, we are struck with a profound disillusionment\, stranded in a place full of promise that never delivers. In a turn\, the world of photographic familiarity Tolon has created collapses in on itself. – Amanda Krugliak\, arts curator\n\nThis Institute for the Humanities original installation was made possible by the generosity of the 2012 Kidder Residency in the Arts. The installation is based on Canan Tolon’s observations and experiences during her time in Ann Arbor\, and many of the materials used are salvage materials from her visits to Detroit architectural yards. \n\n

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Occasion for Revolution? Benjamin West's Death of General Wolfe
DESCRIPTION:Benjamin West’s 1770 canvas The Death of General Wolfe was one of the most celebrated paintings in eighteenth-century England. After initially expressing reservations about West’s depiction of the death of Major General James Wolfe in the 1759 defeat of the French at Québec\, Sir Joshua Reynolds\, President of the Royal Academy\, stated that “I foresee that this picture will not only become one of the most popular\, but occasion a revolution in art.” This talk by curator Carole McNamara will look at how West’s painting figured in the tradition of eighteenth-century military commemorations\, including other depictions of Wolfe\, and examine why it is that West’s version became the iconic portrayal of this important military victory.\n\nGenerous support for this exhibition is provided by the Joseph F. McCrindle Foundation\, the University of Michigan Health System\, the University of Michigan Office of the Provost and Office of the Vice President for Research\, the Richard and Rosann Noel Endowment Fund\, and THE MOSAIC FOUNDATION (of R. & P. Heydon).\n

DESCRIPTION:Visit the Michigan Union Art Lounge to see this art exhibit featuring landscape oil on canvas paintings from some of the most beautiful places in Michigan. \n\nExhibit: “Beautiful Michigan” - Landscape Paintings\, Oil on Canvas\n\nArtist: Anil Dhir\n\nArtist Statement:\nFor a painter\, Michigan offers one of the most beautiful landscapes\, whether here in Ann Arbor\, up-north or anywhere else. These paintings are my attempt to capture some of the Michigan beauty. I believe that a great painting is a like a beautifully composed piece of music.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Canan Tolon Installation: Time After Time
DESCRIPTION:Canan Tolon’s paintings and installations serve as visual records of the passing of time. Each swipe captures the gesture as well as the memory of the gesture\, now already in the past. Each panel appears to duplicate itself beyond any final tally\, proliferating in the room.\n\nUpon first glance\, Tolon’s constructs evoke a sense of freedom in their repetition. They appear infinite\, suggestive of vast open spaces\, like the modern landscapes viewed out of a train window\, or the documentary film reels from the mid- twentieth century. They draw us in\, inviting our dreams and interpretations. In this momentary introspection\, we contemplate our own histories.\n\nThen\, like the first day of any highly anticipated tomorrow\, after the proverbial summer full of expectation”¦expecting things to change\, to be different\, to be new again\, we are struck with a profound disillusionment\, stranded in a place full of promise that never delivers. In a turn\, the world of photographic familiarity Tolon has created collapses in on itself. – Amanda Krugliak\, arts curator\n\nThis Institute for the Humanities original installation was made possible by the generosity of the 2012 Kidder Residency in the Arts. The installation is based on Canan Tolon’s observations and experiences during her time in Ann Arbor\, and many of the materials used are salvage materials from her visits to Detroit architectural yards. \n\n

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Beautiful Michigan
DESCRIPTION:Visit the Michigan Union Art Lounge to see this art exhibit featuring landscape oil on canvas paintings from some of the most beautiful places in Michigan. \n\nExhibit: “Beautiful Michigan” - Landscape Paintings\, Oil on Canvas\n\nArtist: Anil Dhir\n\nArtist Statement:\nFor a painter\, Michigan offers one of the most beautiful landscapes\, whether here in Ann Arbor\, up-north or anywhere else. These paintings are my attempt to capture some of the Michigan beauty. I believe that a great painting is a like a beautifully composed piece of music.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Canan Tolon Installation: Time After Time
DESCRIPTION:Canan Tolon’s paintings and installations serve as visual records of the passing of time. Each swipe captures the gesture as well as the memory of the gesture\, now already in the past. Each panel appears to duplicate itself beyond any final tally\, proliferating in the room.\n\nUpon first glance\, Tolon’s constructs evoke a sense of freedom in their repetition. They appear infinite\, suggestive of vast open spaces\, like the modern landscapes viewed out of a train window\, or the documentary film reels from the mid- twentieth century. They draw us in\, inviting our dreams and interpretations. In this momentary introspection\, we contemplate our own histories.\n\nThen\, like the first day of any highly anticipated tomorrow\, after the proverbial summer full of expectation”¦expecting things to change\, to be different\, to be new again\, we are struck with a profound disillusionment\, stranded in a place full of promise that never delivers. In a turn\, the world of photographic familiarity Tolon has created collapses in on itself. – Amanda Krugliak\, arts curator\n\nThis Institute for the Humanities original installation was made possible by the generosity of the 2012 Kidder Residency in the Arts. The installation is based on Canan Tolon’s observations and experiences during her time in Ann Arbor\, and many of the materials used are salvage materials from her visits to Detroit architectural yards. \n\n

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:Tom Weisskopf Lecture\, “The Origins and Evolution of Radical Political Economics”
DESCRIPTION:This lecture is part of a thematic series of events leading up to the October 31-November 2\, 2012 conference\, \"A New Insurgency: The Port Huron Statement in Its Time and Ours.\" It is free and open to the public.\n\nAbstract: Drawing on personal experience as well as other sources of information\, I will begin by addressing the rise of a dissident movement within the field of economics in the U.S. that came to be labeled “radical political economics.” This was one of many manifestations of the North American New Left movement of the 1960s. I will then examine the evolution of radical political economics over subsequent decades\, as the broader political climate in the U.S. shifted increasingly to the Right. This political shift\, as well as new developments within mainstream academic economics\, have changed in significant respects the nature of radical political economics and the activities of its practitioners.

DESCRIPTION:Valerie Mann has been showing her work professionally throughout the US and in Canada and Germany for 23 years.  She grew up on a large family farm in Indiana\, went to University of Illinois\, Champaign-Urbana to earn a BFA in painting\, then to MSU to earn an MFA in sculpture. Now working and teaching in Ann Arbor\, Mann’s use and study of tools inspired this body of work. Used every day and sometimes taken for granted\, tools are indispensable in the making of art. These favorite tools are beautifully designed and well-thought out for their specific job.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Beautiful Michigan
DESCRIPTION:Visit the Michigan Union Art Lounge to see this art exhibit featuring landscape oil on canvas paintings from some of the most beautiful places in Michigan. \n\nExhibit: “Beautiful Michigan” - Landscape Paintings\, Oil on Canvas\n\nArtist: Anil Dhir\n\nArtist Statement:\nFor a painter\, Michigan offers one of the most beautiful landscapes\, whether here in Ann Arbor\, up-north or anywhere else. These paintings are my attempt to capture some of the Michigan beauty. I believe that a great painting is a like a beautifully composed piece of music.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Canan Tolon Installation: Time After Time
DESCRIPTION:Canan Tolon’s paintings and installations serve as visual records of the passing of time. Each swipe captures the gesture as well as the memory of the gesture\, now already in the past. Each panel appears to duplicate itself beyond any final tally\, proliferating in the room.\n\nUpon first glance\, Tolon’s constructs evoke a sense of freedom in their repetition. They appear infinite\, suggestive of vast open spaces\, like the modern landscapes viewed out of a train window\, or the documentary film reels from the mid- twentieth century. They draw us in\, inviting our dreams and interpretations. In this momentary introspection\, we contemplate our own histories.\n\nThen\, like the first day of any highly anticipated tomorrow\, after the proverbial summer full of expectation”¦expecting things to change\, to be different\, to be new again\, we are struck with a profound disillusionment\, stranded in a place full of promise that never delivers. In a turn\, the world of photographic familiarity Tolon has created collapses in on itself. – Amanda Krugliak\, arts curator\n\nThis Institute for the Humanities original installation was made possible by the generosity of the 2012 Kidder Residency in the Arts. The installation is based on Canan Tolon’s observations and experiences during her time in Ann Arbor\, and many of the materials used are salvage materials from her visits to Detroit architectural yards. \n\n

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:Income Inequality and Educational Outcomes 
DESCRIPTION:The Education Policy Initiative at the Gerald R. Ford School of Public Policy\n\n\npresents\n\nIncome Inequality and Educational Outcomes \n\nSean F. Reardon\nProfessor of Education\nStanford University\n \nWednesday\, September 26 2012\, 4:00 – 5:30pm\nFree and open to the public\n\nGerald R. Ford School of Public Policy\nBetty Ford Classroom\, 1110 Joan and Sanford Weill Hall\n735 South State Street\, Ann Arbor\n\nIncome Inequality and Educational Outcomes\nIncome inequality among the families of school-age children in the US has grown sharply in the last 40 years.  In this talk Dr. Reardon will describe his research findings from three studies that examine the relationship of income and income inequality to educational outcomes.  The first focuses on trends in the ”˜income achievement gap’ (the test score gap between children from high- and low-income families) over the last 50 years\, using data from 13 nationally representative studies conducted between 1959-2009.  The second investigates the relationships among income\, achievement\, and the selectivity of the colleges in which students enroll\, using data from the high school classes of 1982\, 1992\, and 2004.  The third study investigates the association between national income inequality levels and a country’s income achievement gap\, using data from 19 OECD countries in 2001-2009.  Dr. Reardon will conclude the talk with discussion of the causes and implications of patterns and trends identified in the research.\n\nSean F. Reardon\nSean F. Reardon is professor of education and (by courtesy) sociology at Stanford University\, and Director of the Stanford Interdisciplinary Training Program in Quantitative Education Policy Analysis.  His scholarship focuses on the effects of education policy on educational and social inequality\; on the causes\, patterns\, trends\, and consequences of social and educational inequality\; and in applied statistical methods for education research. His primary research examines the relative contribution of family\, school\, and neighborhood environments to racial/ethnic and socioeconomic achievement disparities. Most recently\, he has written about the widening academic achievement gap between children from high- and low-income families and about the growth in residential segregation between high- and low-income families over the last 40 years.  Sean received his doctorate in education in 1997 from Harvard University. He has been a recipient of a William T. Grant Foundation Scholar Award\, a Carnegie Scholar Award\, and a National Academy of Education Postdoctoral Fellowship. \n\nThe Education Policy Initiative (EPI) is a program of coordinated activities designed to bring the latest academic knowledge to issues of education policy.\n\nThis event is generously supported by Charles H. and Susan Gessner.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:Nam Center for Korean Studies Colloquium Series
DESCRIPTION:This paper takes as a starting point the 2007 American documentary film Koryo Saram: The Unreliable People\, which highlights both the tragedy and perseverance of Kazakhstan’s Korean population. Koryo Saram includes extensive footage of a 1946 documentary film entitled Kolkhoz “Avant-Garde”\, produced by Soviet authorities to showcase a thriving Kazakhstani Korean collective farm. Koryo Saram correctly presents this film as raw Stalinist propaganda\, but Kolkhoz “Avant-Garde” also bears traces of the inter-war Soviet Avant-Garde\, in particular the documentary techniques of Dziga Vertov\, Aleksandr Rodchenko\, and Sergei Tret’iakov. That is\, there is more to Kolkhoz “Avant-Garde” than meets the eye\, and the paper argues that it reveals the tragedy not just of Soviet Koreans\, but also of what I am calling the Ethnic Avant-Garde: a cross-racial\, international grouping of artists who\, in the 1920s and early 30s\, looked to Moscow for ways of reconciling revolutionary politics\, artistic innovation\, and ethnic particularism. Turning from the two films\, the paper then provides a broader mapping of the Ethnic Avant-Garde\, which included\, among others\, both Korean American and Soviet Korean artists and writers. In short\, I am proposing here a new\, Soviet-centered model for bridging these two distinct branches of the Korean diaspora.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Gifts of Art presents A Study in Nature: Gelatin Silver Prints by Darryl Baird
DESCRIPTION:Darryl Baird is Associate Professor of Art at U-M Flint in graphic design and photography. This body of photographic work is a series of highly magnified plant sections offered as homage to natural life cycles and the inherent potential for beauty in mature forms. These images are a means to explore the cycles of all living things and a way to find understanding through the process.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Beautiful Michigan
DESCRIPTION:Visit the Michigan Union Art Lounge to see this art exhibit featuring landscape oil on canvas paintings from some of the most beautiful places in Michigan. \n\nExhibit: “Beautiful Michigan” - Landscape Paintings\, Oil on Canvas\n\nArtist: Anil Dhir\n\nArtist Statement:\nFor a painter\, Michigan offers one of the most beautiful landscapes\, whether here in Ann Arbor\, up-north or anywhere else. These paintings are my attempt to capture some of the Michigan beauty. I believe that a great painting is a like a beautifully composed piece of music. My wish is to create a painting with a simple aim of honestly capturing the very essence of what I saw\, and be able to make the viewer feel what I felt. (To read the full artist statement\, please visit campusinvolvement.umich.edu\, it is also posted with the exhibit.)\n\nThe exhibit will be displayed until Friday\, October 5th.\n\nAll pieces in the exhibit are for sale. Please contact the Center for Campus Involvement (uminvolvement@umich.edu) if you are interested in purchasing art from this exhibit.\n\nPlease note: The Center for Campus Involvement (CCI) provides opportunities for student and professional artists to display work suitable for a general audience.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Canan Tolon Installation: Time After Time
DESCRIPTION:Canan Tolon’s paintings and installations serve as visual records of the passing of time. Each swipe captures the gesture as well as the memory of the gesture\, now already in the past. Each panel appears to duplicate itself beyond any final tally\, proliferating in the room.\n\nUpon first glance\, Tolon’s constructs evoke a sense of freedom in their repetition. They appear infinite\, suggestive of vast open spaces\, like the modern landscapes viewed out of a train window\, or the documentary film reels from the mid- twentieth century. They draw us in\, inviting our dreams and interpretations. In this momentary introspection\, we contemplate our own histories.\n\nThen\, like the first day of any highly anticipated tomorrow\, after the proverbial summer full of expectation”¦expecting things to change\, to be different\, to be new again\, we are struck with a profound disillusionment\, stranded in a place full of promise that never delivers. In a turn\, the world of photographic familiarity Tolon has created collapses in on itself. – Amanda Krugliak\, arts curator\n\nThis Institute for the Humanities original installation was made possible by the generosity of the 2012 Kidder Residency in the Arts. The installation is based on Canan Tolon’s observations and experiences during her time in Ann Arbor\, and many of the materials used are salvage materials from her visits to Detroit architectural yards. \n\n

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:CJS Noon Lecture Series
DESCRIPTION:(FREE AND OPEN TO THE PUBLIC) In 1997\, an episode of the Pokémon animated TV series apparently induced seizures in children\, which led to the warnings that appear today at the beginning of TV animations in Japan by government mandate. This incident serves as a point of departure for considering how television screens (and televised animations) have come to imply a tricky combination of totalizing strategies and individualizing procedures\, generating modes of affective attunement to broadcast and wifi systems that parallel to neoliberal governmentality.\n\nAbout the Speaker:\nThomas Lamarre teaches in East Asian Studies and Communications Studies at McGill University. Some of his written works include books such as \"Shadows on the Screen: Tanizaki Jun’ichirô on Cinema and Oriental Aesthetics\" (2005)\, \"Uncovering Heian Japan: An Archaeology of Sensation and Inscription\" (2000)\, and \"The Anime Machine: A Media Theory of Animation\" (2009).

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:EEB Thursday Seminar Series
DESCRIPTION:Climate change research increasingly focuses on dynamics among species\, ecosystems and climates: better data about the historical behaviours of these dynamics are needed. Integration of existing data from ecology\, paleontology and geology\, but their integration is hampered by differences in temporal and geographic scales. One way of bridging these scales is through the quantitative analysis of geographic distributions\, climate interactions\, and functional traits\, using sampling schemes consistent with the coarsest of these data (namely the paleontological and geological data). Using locomotor traits in terrestrial vertebrates in the present and the recent geological past\, Dr. Polly will look at environmental sorting of species by their traits\, the interplay between geographic sorting and evolutionary change in response to climate\, and changes in species climatic niches.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:Eisenberg Institute for Historical Studies Thursday Speakers Series
DESCRIPTION:Karl Schlögel\, Europa-Universität Viadrina Frankfurt (Oder)\n\nLecture Abstract: Professor Schlögel will discuss the problems of narratives of simultaneity. There is a spontaneous predominance of time and chronological order in historiography\, for which entirely convincing arguments do not exist. Conventionally\, time dominates. Professor Schlögel will question this dominance and discuss what might happen if historians respect the symmetry of time and space. The resulting epistemological consequences directly impact the question of narration. In his view\, historians have much to learn from M.M. Bakhtin’s concept of “chronotope\,” along with the great writer-philosophers like Musil\, Joyce\, Doderer\, Bely\, and Proust.

SUMMARY:Performance:\"Uncanny Valley\"
DESCRIPTION:Oni Buchanan’s concert programming is often interdisciplinary in nature\, directly engaging the intimate connections between the arts\, and frequently including adventurous contemporary works alongside established repertoire\, bringing works from disparate centuries into fascinating and enlightening conversation. In addition to solo programming\, she has co-curated (with poet Jon Woodward) several large-scale\, interdisciplinary performance projects. \n\nMost recently\, they commissioned a concert-length work for piano/spoken text/electronics from renowned electroacoustic composer John Gibson\, which will premiere in Ann Arbor\, and will be performed on tour throughout the 2012/13 season. The piece\, called \"Uncanny Valley\" (after Jon Woodward’s serial poem of the same name)\, explores the phenomenon of \"semantic satiation\,\" searching through repeated poetic lines and musical forms for what is most uncanny\, and most human\, in both language and music.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:College Truth Tour with Herman Cain
DESCRIPTION:The College Truth Tour 2012 is making a stop at the University of Michigan featuring former Presidential candidate Herman Cain and the band Quiet Drive\n\nCompletely FREE and OPEN TO THE PUBLIC!\nTickets are going quickly\, and you must REGISTER for the event at collegetruthtour.com\n\nLet’s face it\; we currently have one of the worst economies for college graduates ever.\n\nOne-third of all young workers are either unemployed or underemployed\, 60% believe they will be less financially successful than their parents and over half feel the United States is headed in the wrong direction. Do we need to be accepting of a high unemployment rate or a stagnant economy?\n\nWe believe the answer is a resounding\, “No.”\n\nThere needs to be a serious discussion on how to fix this economy. How do we ensure that a student doesn’t walk across the stage to get their diploma and go straight into the unemployment line? This is not a Republican\, Democrat\, conservative\, or liberal issue. This is not about any particular president\, congress member\, or corporate leader. This is about the facts. This is about the Truth.\n\nJoin this fun and educational discussion with Herman Cain!\n\nBrought to you by Students for Healthcare Freedom
