SUMMARY:Exhibition:Bowling\, Burgers & Dogs: Digital Color Photography
DESCRIPTION:After receiving a BFA from Rutgers University\, Denise Rohde went on to study photography with renowned photographer Art Sinsabaugh at the University of Illinois. Working for years in a darkroom\, the switch to digital allowed her to draw from her painting and printmaking experience. Being able to combine mediums digitally has unleashed her imagination. Denise moved to Ann Arbor eight years ago from Champaign\, Illinois\, and she has found Michigan to be an \"eyeful.\" Some of her exhibits include the University of Illinois\, Roulette NYC\, Peachtree Plaza Atlanta and the Kodak Pavilion\, Epcot Center. \n\n1500 E.

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:Politics OF Crisis or Crisis IN Politics?: France and the European Situation in the Aftermath of the 2012 Elections 
DESCRIPTION:Speaker: Joshua H. Cole\, Associate Professor of History\, U-M\n\nThe 2012 elections in France were supposed to be boring. An unpopular incumbent was running against an insipidly nice mainstream opponent. Before the first round of voting\, however\, polls showed extremists of the left and right threatening to take nearly 40 per cent of the first-round vote. What can this French story tell us about the search for solutions to Europe’s seemingly intractable problems of economic instability and social discontent?\n

SUMMARY:Exhibition:African Art and the Shape of Time
DESCRIPTION:African Art and the Shape of Time explores how African art gives material form to diverse concepts of temporality\, history and memory. African art is often interpreted in Western analytical frameworks as expressions of timeless myths and rituals\, interrupted only by the colonial encounter. African Art and the Shape of Time complicates such conventional views by considering diverse modes for reckoning time and its philosophical\, social\, and religious significance. The exhibition includes 30 works from the University of Michigan Museum of Art\, National Museum of African Art\, Fowler Museum at UCLA\, as well as several Detroit area private collections\, and is organized around five themes that explore the multiplicity of time in Africa: The Beginning of Things\, Embodied Time\, Moving Through Time\, Global Time\, and \"NOW.\"\n\nThis exhibition is generously supported by the University of Michigan Health System. Additional support provided by the CEW Frances and Sydney Lewis Visiting Leaders Fund.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Benjamin West: General Wolfe and the Art of Empire 
DESCRIPTION:Benjamin West's iconic painting The Death of General Wolfe (1776) depicts the death of James Wolfe\, the British commander at the 1759 Battle of Quebec during what in this country is known as the French and Indian War. In conflating a momentous contemporary event with the genre of large-scale history painting\, West flouted the conventions of academic painting and the work became one of the most celebrated paintings in Britain. The artist went on to produce six versions of the painting\, one of which belongs to the William L. Clements Library at the University of Michigan. Through approximately 40 works from Michigan\, Canadian\, and British collections\, this ambitious and thematically focused exhibition will include the Clements canvas as well as other depictions of James Wolfe and his death on the battlefield.\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

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Discovering Eighteenth-Century British America through the William L. Clements Library Collection
DESCRIPTION:This significant exhibition provides glimpses of British America in the 1700s and is designed to complement the Museum's concurrent exhibition \"Benjamin West: General Wolfe and the Art of Empire\,\" which features the Clements collection's major painting \"The Death of General Wolfe.\" William L. Clements assembled an outstanding array of primary sources on North America dating between 1492 and 1800\, with a heavy emphasis on early European exploration and discovery and the eighteenth-century wars for control of the continent. The exhibition features a mix of rare items from Mr. Clements’s original donation and pieces the Library has acquired since 1923 to complement and enhance its strength in eighteenth-century American history.\n\nGenerous support for this exhibition is provided by the Andrew W. Mellon Foundation.\n

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Jesper Just: \"This Nameless Spectacle\"
DESCRIPTION:Visitors encountering Danish artist Just’s exhibit will find themselves captivated in stages\, as the experience of viewing it unfolds over time. In this breathtaking installation\, as in much of his work\, Just situates the viewer in his signature landscape of beauty\, provocation\, and a general uneasiness that is as seductive as it is ominous. The storyline is at once deceptively simple and perplexing: a wheelchair-bound protagonist travels through a neighborhood in the outskirts of Paris to her apartment\, while a young male character appears to follow her. Once home\, she is able to leave her wheelchair but is overcome by a powerful seizure. One of Just’s unique strengths is his ability to engage the viewer in an open-ended\, unresolved narrative in a manner that is more intriguing than frustrating. It is impossible to parse but equally impossible to abandon\, and this is the essence of Just’s gift for hypnotic storytelling.\nGenerous support for this exhibition is provided by the University of Michigan Office of the Provost. \n

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:CJS Noon Lecture Series
DESCRIPTION:(FREE AND OPEN TO THE PUBLIC) Today\, Japan’s Self-Defense Forces (SDF) is a world military power. Yet\, the Japanese Constitution does not recognize the nation’s right to possess any type of war potential\, and therefore the status of the SDF is still controversial. In this lecture\, Professor Sasaki will focus on the formative period of the SDF\, that is\, the 1950s and 1960s\, and discuss how the SDF sought to enlist popular support. Addressing issues concerning the SDF’s recruitment and its use of service members’ labor\, he will speak about the SDF’s roles within the Japanese economy.\n\nAbout the Speaker:\nTomoyuki Sasaki is an assistant professor of history at Eastern Michigan University\, where he teaches courses on Japan and East Asia. His research interests lie in civil-military relations and peace movements. He is currently completing a book manuscript that deals with the Self-Defense Forces’ socio-economic ties with civil society in postwar Japan.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:Elizabeth Anderson Lecture\, “The People Themselves: Between Revolution and Representation from 1789 to Port Huron and Beyond”
DESCRIPTION:WHEN: 2:00-3:30\n\nWhere: Tisch Hall - 1014\n\nThis 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: The Port Huron statement marked an important moment in the history of democracy by calling for full participation by the people in political life. I situate this call in the context of the history of the people themselves taking control of their collective life\, from the French Revolution to the present. Throughout this history\, the struggle for democracy has been shaped by tension between participatory and representative forms. I shall show how the Port Huron statement proposed a resolution of this tension by drawing on the resources of American pragmatism.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:Conversations on Europe. “Eurozone Crisis from an Italian Perspective”  
DESCRIPTION:The ongoing Eurozone crisis has hit Italy severely\, and the country is now under acute economic and political stress. Italy has been compared to other EU countries at the center of the crisis\, such as Greece and Spain\, but in spite of some common traits\, the origin and development of the crisis in each of these countries have been quite different. Because of the differences in the underlying economic structures\, the causes of the current Italian problems (such as slow economic growth\, high public debt\, high youth unemployment\, etc.) are deeply-rooted\, and the crisis only exposed many of them more clearly. Even if relevant differences among EU countries persist\, the difficulties in solving these issues are arguably similar across Europe\, and mainly political. The answer to the crisis requires the political will to put forward both national reforms and coordinated and joint policy interventions at the EU level. In the past\, the determination to maintain its role as one of the “founding members” of the European Union helped Italy to implement policies that were unthinkable in ordinary times\, in pursuit of tighter European integration\, and shocks worked as catalysts in the process\, both for Italy and for the EU as a whole. If this will once be more the case\, a way out of the crisis can certainly be found. \n\nLucia Tajoli is associate professor of economics at the Department of Management\, Economics and Industrial Engineering at Politecnico di Milano\, where she teaches Economics and International Economics. She graduated in Economics at Bocconi University in Milan\, where she received her PhD in Economics in 1994. She is also a visiting scholar at Bocconi University and University of Michigan.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:EEB Thursday Seminar Series as part of the Rackham Centennial Lectures
DESCRIPTION:Most contemporary research on sexual selection treats mating preferences as evolving by natural selection for honest information about quality or condition\, or for sensory efficiency. However\, Darwin's own view was explicitly aesthetic. Dr. Prum advocates a return to Darwin's aesthetic view of sexual selection by mate choice\, in which the arbitrary sexual selection mechanism of Lande and Kirkpatrick is the null model. If mate preferences are not always under natural selection\, it is necessary to recognize the role of emergent agency of mate choice in evolutionary process. Thus\, mate choice gives rise to sexual autonomy. Because of the indirect costs of sexual coercion\, sexual autonomy will evolve to assert and expand its own control over fertilization in the face of sexual conflict.  Sexual autonomy is enhanced through either evolved mechanisms of resistance or novel aesthetic preferences that have  secondary limiations on sexual coercion. These issues in sexual selection and aesthetic evolution will be discussed with examples for birds and humans. \n\nSponsored by the Museum of Zoology Robert W. Storer Endowment

SUMMARY:Performance:Clayton Eshleman Translates Aimé Césaire
DESCRIPTION:Clayton Eshleman's poems\, critical essays\, and translations of poets as important and diverse as César Vallejo\, Aimé Césaire\, Pablo Neruda\, Antonin Artaud\, Vladimir Holan\, Michel Deguy\, Henri Michaux\, and Bernard Bador have earned him (and his fellow co-translators in some cases) international acclaim\, as testified by a National Book Award\, a Guggenheim Fellowship\, numerous grants from the National Endowment for the Arts and the National Endowment for the Humanities\, and two Landon Translation Prizes from the Academy of American Poets. \n\nAt this reading\, Eshleman will read from his recent translation of Solar Throat Slashed by Aimé Césaire. From poets.org:\n\nSoleil cou coupé (Solar Throat Slashed) is Aimé Césaire’s most explosive collection of poetry. Animistically dense\, charged with eroticism and blasphemy\, and imbued with an African and Vodun spirituality\, this book takes the French surrealist adventure to new heights and depths. A Césaire poem is an intersection at which metaphoric traceries create historically aware nexuses of thought and experience\, jagged solidarity\, apocalyptic surgery\, and solar dynamite. The original 1948 French edition of Soleil cou coupé has a dense magico-religious frame of reference. In the late 1950s\, Césaire was increasingly politically focused and seeking a wider audience\, when he\, in effect\, gelded the 1948 text–eliminating 31 of the 72 poems\, and editing another 29. Until now\, only the revised 1961 edition\, called Cadastre\, has been translated. The revised text lacks the radical originality of Soleil cou coupé. This Wesleyan edition presents all the original poems en face with the new English translations. Includes an introduction by A. James Arnold and notes by Clayton Eshleman.

DESCRIPTION: A down-home eclectic mix\n\nThe Richmond\, Virginia–based group Carbon Leaf began as an independent band in 1992\, then signed on with Vanguard Records for a three-album stint in 2004. Along the way they scored hit singles at both AAA and Hot AC Radio with \"Life Less Ordinary\" and \"The Boxer\,\" placed first in the International Songwriting Competition\, won an American Music Award\, and recorded the music for Universal's \"Curious George II\" soundtrack. Says the Washington Examiner: \"Some call Carbon Leaf's music Southern\, others label it Celtic\, and still others say it leans toward bluegrass or some combination of formats. No matter what your take on the band's sound\, almost everyone can agree that Carbon Leaf creates music that just isn't heard anywhere else–and that's what keeps fans clamoring for more music.\" As Carbon Leaf enters their 20th year of recording and touring\, the band’s rigorous path of independence continues\, focusing on writing\, producing and releasing new material directly to their fans.

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:Electronics on anything: How thin film electronics can instrument the world
DESCRIPTION:Silicon electronics have revolutionized the processing and handling of information. The high temperatures required to create crystalline silicon devices\, however\, has limited the application of crystalline silicon to sensing systems that work in a small and mechanically rigid form factor. The development of inorganic and organic thin film electronics has launched a second revolution in electronics\, granting the ability to process electronically active materials at low temperatures. This has allowed for two exciting opportunities: the ability to build electronic devices on the same size scale as the systems they interact with\, and the ability to integrate electronic materials on a range of substrates including electronically active and flexible materials. Our group has been working on the hybrid integration of organic semiconductors and SLS laser-recrystallized silicon with active substrates to implement sensing\, display\, and mechanical actuation functionalities. In this presentation\, I'll show how thin film electronics and the hybrid integration enabled by new semiconductor systems and process options allows for active and spatially localized control of systems that are typically used in a single element format. Using this capability we have demonstrated the electronic implementation of all five senses as well a new approaches to mechanical actuation in polymer materials and driving LEDs in display engines. In particular\, I'll show how thin film transistors can be integrated with other active materials to build monolithically integrated microphones and pressure sensors\, flexible sheet scanners\, mass-based chemical sensors\, high power light engines\, and segmented polymer actuators. It is our hope that these devices will form some of the building blocks for future electronic systems and interface paradigms with application in a range of technological and healthcare areas.

SUMMARY:Class / Instruction:Older Folk in Film–OLLI Study Group
DESCRIPTION:Although movies seem made for young people\, you can still find films with sensitivity and insight about the lives of older people in different (but in some ways similar) cultures. While these films deal with the realities of aging\, all are thoughtful\, engaging and ultimately ennobling. The films we will screen are “Make Way for Tomorrow” (USA\, 1937)\; “Tokyo Story” (Japan\, 1953)\; “Away from Her” (USA\, 2002)\; “Cloud Nine” (Germany\, 2009)\; “After Life” (Japanese\, 1999)\; and “Wild Strawberries” (Sweden\, 1957). Bring lunch to the discussion following the screening\, if you like. Ira Konigsberg is Professor Emeritus of Film\, U of M.\n

SUMMARY:Exhibition:African Art and the Shape of Time
DESCRIPTION:African Art and the Shape of Time explores how African art gives material form to diverse concepts of temporality\, history and memory. African art is often interpreted in Western analytical frameworks as expressions of timeless myths and rituals\, interrupted only by the colonial encounter. African Art and the Shape of Time complicates such conventional views by considering diverse modes for reckoning time and its philosophical\, social\, and religious significance. The exhibition includes 30 works from the University of Michigan Museum of Art\, National Museum of African Art\, Fowler Museum at UCLA\, as well as several Detroit area private collections\, and is organized around five themes that explore the multiplicity of time in Africa: The Beginning of Things\, Embodied Time\, Moving Through Time\, Global Time\, and \"NOW.\"\n\nThis exhibition is generously supported by the University of Michigan Health System. Additional support provided by the CEW Frances and Sydney Lewis Visiting Leaders Fund.

DESCRIPTION:Benjamin West's iconic painting The Death of General Wolfe (1776) depicts the death of James Wolfe\, the British commander at the 1759 Battle of Quebec during what in this country is known as the French and Indian War. In conflating a momentous contemporary event with the genre of large-scale history painting\, West flouted the conventions of academic painting and the work became one of the most celebrated paintings in Britain. The artist went on to produce six versions of the painting\, one of which belongs to the William L. Clements Library at the University of Michigan. Through approximately 40 works from Michigan\, Canadian\, and British collections\, this ambitious and thematically focused exhibition will include the Clements canvas as well as other depictions of James Wolfe and his death on the battlefield.\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

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Discovering Eighteenth-Century British America through the William L. Clements Library Collection
DESCRIPTION:This significant exhibition provides glimpses of British America in the 1700s and is designed to complement the Museum's concurrent exhibition \"Benjamin West: General Wolfe and the Art of Empire\,\" which features the Clements collection's major painting \"The Death of General Wolfe.\" William L. Clements assembled an outstanding array of primary sources on North America dating between 1492 and 1800\, with a heavy emphasis on early European exploration and discovery and the eighteenth-century wars for control of the continent. The exhibition features a mix of rare items from Mr. Clements’s original donation and pieces the Library has acquired since 1923 to complement and enhance its strength in eighteenth-century American history.\n\nGenerous support for this exhibition is provided by the Andrew W. Mellon Foundation.\n

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Jesper Just: \"This Nameless Spectacle\"
DESCRIPTION:Visitors encountering Danish artist Just’s exhibit will find themselves captivated in stages\, as the experience of viewing it unfolds over time. In this breathtaking installation\, as in much of his work\, Just situates the viewer in his signature landscape of beauty\, provocation\, and a general uneasiness that is as seductive as it is ominous. The storyline is at once deceptively simple and perplexing: a wheelchair-bound protagonist travels through a neighborhood in the outskirts of Paris to her apartment\, while a young male character appears to follow her. Once home\, she is able to leave her wheelchair but is overcome by a powerful seizure. One of Just’s unique strengths is his ability to engage the viewer in an open-ended\, unresolved narrative in a manner that is more intriguing than frustrating. It is impossible to parse but equally impossible to abandon\, and this is the essence of Just’s gift for hypnotic storytelling.\nGenerous support for this exhibition is provided by the University of Michigan Office of the Provost. \n

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion: Death of a Megapredator: Whitey Hagadorn\, Denver Museum of Nature and Science 
DESCRIPTION:Anomalocaridids were the first large predators\, and are thought to have been ferocious consumers of trilobites and other prey that inhabited early Paleozoic seas.  Like Tyrannosaurus rex\, sabre-toothed cats\, and similar apex predators\, they first became known from a famous deposit - the Cambrian Burgess Shale.  Aside from their iconic status\, anomalocaridids also play an important role in our understanding of Earth history and evolution because they are keystone organisms.  They are keystones because our interpretations of their biology and ecology\, based on the morphology of fossils\, anchor our understanding of how entire marine ecosystems functioned.  Yet new finite element modeling\, taphonomic\, and mineralogic analyses of these extinct creatures seems to contradict the longstanding interpretation of the biology and ecology of these animals\, suggesting rather that they may have been small\, that their mouths were soft\, that they could not close their mouth\, and that they could not have possibly eaten trilobites.  Similarly\, analyses of malformed or \"bitten\" trilobites interpreted to be prey suggests that they could not have been deformed by the mouth or appendages of any known anomalocaridid.  Analysis of putative anomalocaridid coprolites from the same deposits suggests that coprolites were produced by other animals or inorganic processes.  Based on this new work\, it is unclear if these iconic predators were really just small worm-suckers or whether they were early plankton combers.  Regardless\, this new data could substantially change the way we interpret the complexity of ancient ecosystems\, the evolution of large arthropods and their kin\, and biogeochemical feedback loops in organic-rich muddy settings.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:African Art and the Shape of Time
DESCRIPTION:African Art and the Shape of Time explores how African art gives material form to diverse concepts of temporality\, history and memory. African art is often interpreted in Western analytical frameworks as expressions of timeless myths and rituals\, interrupted only by the colonial encounter. African Art and the Shape of Time complicates such conventional views by considering diverse modes for reckoning time and its philosophical\, social\, and religious significance. The exhibition includes 30 works from the University of Michigan Museum of Art\, National Museum of African Art\, Fowler Museum at UCLA\, as well as several Detroit area private collections\, and is organized around five themes that explore the multiplicity of time in Africa: The Beginning of Things\, Embodied Time\, Moving Through Time\, Global Time\, and \"NOW.\"\n\nThis exhibition is generously supported by the University of Michigan Health System. Additional support provided by the CEW Frances and Sydney Lewis Visiting Leaders Fund.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Benjamin West: General Wolfe and the Art of Empire 
DESCRIPTION:Benjamin West's iconic painting The Death of General Wolfe (1776) depicts the death of James Wolfe\, the British commander at the 1759 Battle of Quebec during what in this country is known as the French and Indian War. In conflating a momentous contemporary event with the genre of large-scale history painting\, West flouted the conventions of academic painting and the work became one of the most celebrated paintings in Britain. The artist went on to produce six versions of the painting\, one of which belongs to the William L. Clements Library at the University of Michigan. Through approximately 40 works from Michigan\, Canadian\, and British collections\, this ambitious and thematically focused exhibition will include the Clements canvas as well as other depictions of James Wolfe and his death on the battlefield.\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

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:Discovering Eighteenth-Century British America through the William L. Clements Library Collection
DESCRIPTION:This significant exhibition provides glimpses of British America in the 1700s and is designed to complement the Museum's concurrent exhibition \"Benjamin West: General Wolfe and the Art of Empire\,\" which features the Clements collection's major painting \"The Death of General Wolfe.\" William L. Clements assembled an outstanding array of primary sources on North America dating between 1492 and 1800\, with a heavy emphasis on early European exploration and discovery and the eighteenth-century wars for control of the continent. The exhibition features a mix of rare items from Mr. Clements’s original donation and pieces the Library has acquired since 1923 to complement and enhance its strength in eighteenth-century American history.\n\nGenerous support for this exhibition is provided by the Andrew W. Mellon Foundation.\n

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Jesper Just: \"This Nameless Spectacle\"
DESCRIPTION:Visitors encountering Danish artist Just’s exhibit will find themselves captivated in stages\, as the experience of viewing it unfolds over time. In this breathtaking installation\, as in much of his work\, Just situates the viewer in his signature landscape of beauty\, provocation\, and a general uneasiness that is as seductive as it is ominous. The storyline is at once deceptively simple and perplexing: a wheelchair-bound protagonist travels through a neighborhood in the outskirts of Paris to her apartment\, while a young male character appears to follow her. Once home\, she is able to leave her wheelchair but is overcome by a powerful seizure. One of Just’s unique strengths is his ability to engage the viewer in an open-ended\, unresolved narrative in a manner that is more intriguing than frustrating. It is impossible to parse but equally impossible to abandon\, and this is the essence of Just’s gift for hypnotic storytelling.\nGenerous support for this exhibition is provided by the University of Michigan Office of the Provost. \n

SUMMARY:Performance:The Verve Pipe
DESCRIPTION:Michigan rockers in an intimate setting\n\nWith sales of three million albums worldwide\, the Verve Pipe was one of Michigan rock and roll's great success stories of the 1990s. Formed in East Lansing\, the band gained a following for its textured rock songs distinguished by inventive arrangements\, soul-searching lyrics and layered vocals. Lead singer Brian Vander Ark has gone onto a solo career and become an Ark favorite with his songs of family\, love\, and loss. But after being approached to submit a song for a compilation album called \"Calling All Kids\,\" the Verve Pipe reunited to record their award-nominated kids' CD\, \"A Family Album.\" Now the creative spark touched off by those sessions has led to new Verve Pipe music for adults as well The Verve Pipe has had a reputation for dazzling live shows from the start\, and now they're back\, up close and personal\, at The Ark!

SUMMARY:Exhibition:African Art and the Shape of Time
DESCRIPTION:African Art and the Shape of Time explores how African art gives material form to diverse concepts of temporality\, history and memory. African art is often interpreted in Western analytical frameworks as expressions of timeless myths and rituals\, interrupted only by the colonial encounter. African Art and the Shape of Time complicates such conventional views by considering diverse modes for reckoning time and its philosophical\, social\, and religious significance. The exhibition includes 30 works from the University of Michigan Museum of Art\, National Museum of African Art\, Fowler Museum at UCLA\, as well as several Detroit area private collections\, and is organized around five themes that explore the multiplicity of time in Africa: The Beginning of Things\, Embodied Time\, Moving Through Time\, Global Time\, and \"NOW.\"\n\nThis exhibition is generously supported by the University of Michigan Health System. Additional support provided by the CEW Frances and Sydney Lewis Visiting Leaders Fund.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Benjamin West: General Wolfe and the Art of Empire 
DESCRIPTION:Benjamin West's iconic painting The Death of General Wolfe (1776) depicts the death of James Wolfe\, the British commander at the 1759 Battle of Quebec during what in this country is known as the French and Indian War. In conflating a momentous contemporary event with the genre of large-scale history painting\, West flouted the conventions of academic painting and the work became one of the most celebrated paintings in Britain. The artist went on to produce six versions of the painting\, one of which belongs to the William L. Clements Library at the University of Michigan. Through approximately 40 works from Michigan\, Canadian\, and British collections\, this ambitious and thematically focused exhibition will include the Clements canvas as well as other depictions of James Wolfe and his death on the battlefield.\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

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Discovering Eighteenth-Century British America through the William L. Clements Library Collection
DESCRIPTION:This significant exhibition provides glimpses of British America in the 1700s and is designed to complement the Museum's concurrent exhibition \"Benjamin West: General Wolfe and the Art of Empire\,\" which features the Clements collection's major painting \"The Death of General Wolfe.\" William L. Clements assembled an outstanding array of primary sources on North America dating between 1492 and 1800\, with a heavy emphasis on early European exploration and discovery and the eighteenth-century wars for control of the continent. The exhibition features a mix of rare items from Mr. Clements’s original donation and pieces the Library has acquired since 1923 to complement and enhance its strength in eighteenth-century American history.\n\nGenerous support for this exhibition is provided by the Andrew W. Mellon Foundation.\n

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Jesper Just: \"This Nameless Spectacle\"
DESCRIPTION:Visitors encountering Danish artist Just’s exhibit will find themselves captivated in stages\, as the experience of viewing it unfolds over time. In this breathtaking installation\, as in much of his work\, Just situates the viewer in his signature landscape of beauty\, provocation\, and a general uneasiness that is as seductive as it is ominous. The storyline is at once deceptively simple and perplexing: a wheelchair-bound protagonist travels through a neighborhood in the outskirts of Paris to her apartment\, while a young male character appears to follow her. Once home\, she is able to leave her wheelchair but is overcome by a powerful seizure. One of Just’s unique strengths is his ability to engage the viewer in an open-ended\, unresolved narrative in a manner that is more intriguing than frustrating. It is impossible to parse but equally impossible to abandon\, and this is the essence of Just’s gift for hypnotic storytelling.\nGenerous support for this exhibition is provided by the University of Michigan Office of the Provost. \n

SUMMARY:Exhibition:African Art and the Shape of Time

Join UMMA Docents as they discuss the thirty works from UMMA\, other museums\, and private collections.

Says the Washington Post: \"Lavin knows how to keep her audience guessing\, thinking\, and laughing at the same time.\" Christine has released 21 albums. Her many local fans already know it\, but others may not realize that by now she's accumulated a songbag of pointed satirical material that's just about unmatched in its size\, breadth\, and insight. With the fall elections on the way\, get ready for new material from one of America's great comic songwriters\, and come see why Billboard raved that \"Lavin is as captivating an artist in solo performance as there is today.\"

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:African Art and the Shape of Time
DESCRIPTION:African Art and the Shape of Time explores how African art gives material form to diverse concepts of temporality\, history and memory. African art is often interpreted in Western analytical frameworks as expressions of timeless myths and rituals\, interrupted only by the colonial encounter. African Art and the Shape of Time complicates such conventional views by considering diverse modes for reckoning time and its philosophical\, social\, and religious significance. The exhibition includes 30 works from the University of Michigan Museum of Art\, National Museum of African Art\, Fowler Museum at UCLA\, as well as several Detroit area private collections\, and is organized around five themes that explore the multiplicity of time in Africa: The Beginning of Things\, Embodied Time\, Moving Through Time\, Global Time\, and \"NOW.\"\n\nThis exhibition is generously supported by the University of Michigan Health System. Additional support provided by the CEW Frances and Sydney Lewis Visiting Leaders Fund.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Benjamin West: General Wolfe and the Art of Empire 
DESCRIPTION:Benjamin West's iconic painting The Death of General Wolfe (1776) depicts the death of James Wolfe\, the British commander at the 1759 Battle of Quebec during what in this country is known as the French and Indian War. In conflating a momentous contemporary event with the genre of large-scale history painting\, West flouted the conventions of academic painting and the work became one of the most celebrated paintings in Britain. The artist went on to produce six versions of the painting\, one of which belongs to the William L. Clements Library at the University of Michigan. Through approximately 40 works from Michigan\, Canadian\, and British collections\, this ambitious and thematically focused exhibition will include the Clements canvas as well as other depictions of James Wolfe and his death on the battlefield.\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

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Discovering Eighteenth-Century British America through the William L. Clements Library Collection
DESCRIPTION:This significant exhibition provides glimpses of British America in the 1700s and is designed to complement the Museum's concurrent exhibition \"Benjamin West: General Wolfe and the Art of Empire\,\" which features the Clements collection's major painting \"The Death of General Wolfe.\" William L. Clements assembled an outstanding array of primary sources on North America dating between 1492 and 1800\, with a heavy emphasis on early European exploration and discovery and the eighteenth-century wars for control of the continent. The exhibition features a mix of rare items from Mr. Clements’s original donation and pieces the Library has acquired since 1923 to complement and enhance its strength in eighteenth-century American history.\n\nGenerous support for this exhibition is provided by the Andrew W. Mellon Foundation.\n

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Jesper Just: \"This Nameless Spectacle\"
DESCRIPTION:Visitors encountering Danish artist Just’s exhibit will find themselves captivated in stages\, as the experience of viewing it unfolds over time. In this breathtaking installation\, as in much of his work\, Just situates the viewer in his signature landscape of beauty\, provocation\, and a general uneasiness that is as seductive as it is ominous. The storyline is at once deceptively simple and perplexing: a wheelchair-bound protagonist travels through a neighborhood in the outskirts of Paris to her apartment\, while a young male character appears to follow her. Once home\, she is able to leave her wheelchair but is overcome by a powerful seizure. One of Just’s unique strengths is his ability to engage the viewer in an open-ended\, unresolved narrative in a manner that is more intriguing than frustrating. It is impossible to parse but equally impossible to abandon\, and this is the essence of Just’s gift for hypnotic storytelling.\nGenerous support for this exhibition is provided by the University of Michigan Office of the Provost. \n

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Reminiscence of Ann Arbor: Oil on Canvas
DESCRIPTION:Born and raised in China\, Mingshi Huang studied at Eastern Michigan University and the University of Michigan\, where he earned his graduate degrees. Huang travels extensively between the US and China and currently teaches at Nanjing University in Jiangsu Province. Recently\, he completed several monumental\, museum commissioned sculptures in China. This exhibition is a reminiscence of Huang’s work done while in Ann Arbor. Although his interests spread from representational to expressionist\, Huang is rooted in a traditional ground. His figure paintings and landscapes reflect his masterful approach to traditional realism.\n\n1500 E. Medical Center Drive\, Ann Arbor\, MI 48109

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:Presentation:Forums to gather community input on draft policy regarding student sexual misconduct
DESCRIPTION:For the past eight months\, a team of university officials has worked with many segments of the university community to develop a proposed approach for responding to allegation of sexual misconduct among students.\nNow that team has a draft policy that it is taking back to the community in a series of forums.

SUMMARY:Class / Instruction:A is for Aging\, B is for Birthdays: Changing Attitudes Towards Aging One Child at a Time
DESCRIPTION:Few deny our society bombards us daily with negative words and images regarding aging. But are we actively teaching age stereotypes to our children and grandchildren? We will explore and discuss both negative and positive messages in children’s literature. Learn how positive aging attitudes may extend life and how to help children view late life as a vital stage. All books discussed will be shared in class. Lindsey McDivitt has worked in stroke education for 25 years and has also written several non-fiction books about aging for children.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:African Art and the Shape of Time
DESCRIPTION:African Art and the Shape of Time explores how African art gives material form to diverse concepts of temporality\, history and memory. African art is often interpreted in Western analytical frameworks as expressions of timeless myths and rituals\, interrupted only by the colonial encounter. African Art and the Shape of Time complicates such conventional views by considering diverse modes for reckoning time and its philosophical\, social\, and religious significance. The exhibition includes 30 works from the University of Michigan Museum of Art\, National Museum of African Art\, Fowler Museum at UCLA\, as well as several Detroit area private collections\, and is organized around five themes that explore the multiplicity of time in Africa: The Beginning of Things\, Embodied Time\, Moving Through Time\, Global Time\, and \"NOW.\"\n\nThis exhibition is generously supported by the University of Michigan Health System. Additional support provided by the CEW Frances and Sydney Lewis Visiting Leaders Fund.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Benjamin West: General Wolfe and the Art of Empire 
DESCRIPTION:Benjamin West's iconic painting The Death of General Wolfe (1776) depicts the death of James Wolfe\, the British commander at the 1759 Battle of Quebec during what in this country is known as the French and Indian War. In conflating a momentous contemporary event with the genre of large-scale history painting\, West flouted the conventions of academic painting and the work became one of the most celebrated paintings in Britain. The artist went on to produce six versions of the painting\, one of which belongs to the William L. Clements Library at the University of Michigan. Through approximately 40 works from Michigan\, Canadian\, and British collections\, this ambitious and thematically focused exhibition will include the Clements canvas as well as other depictions of James Wolfe and his death on the battlefield.\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

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Discovering Eighteenth-Century British America through the William L. Clements Library Collection
DESCRIPTION:This significant exhibition provides glimpses of British America in the 1700s and is designed to complement the Museum's concurrent exhibition \"Benjamin West: General Wolfe and the Art of Empire\,\" which features the Clements collection's major painting \"The Death of General Wolfe.\" William L. Clements assembled an outstanding array of primary sources on North America dating between 1492 and 1800\, with a heavy emphasis on early European exploration and discovery and the eighteenth-century wars for control of the continent. The exhibition features a mix of rare items from Mr. Clements’s original donation and pieces the Library has acquired since 1923 to complement and enhance its strength in eighteenth-century American history.\n\nGenerous support for this exhibition is provided by the Andrew W. Mellon Foundation.\n

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Jesper Just: \"This Nameless Spectacle\"
DESCRIPTION:Visitors encountering Danish artist Just’s exhibit will find themselves captivated in stages\, as the experience of viewing it unfolds over time. In this breathtaking installation\, as in much of his work\, Just situates the viewer in his signature landscape of beauty\, provocation\, and a general uneasiness that is as seductive as it is ominous. The storyline is at once deceptively simple and perplexing: a wheelchair-bound protagonist travels through a neighborhood in the outskirts of Paris to her apartment\, while a young male character appears to follow her. Once home\, she is able to leave her wheelchair but is overcome by a powerful seizure. One of Just’s unique strengths is his ability to engage the viewer in an open-ended\, unresolved narrative in a manner that is more intriguing than frustrating. It is impossible to parse but equally impossible to abandon\, and this is the essence of Just’s gift for hypnotic storytelling.\nGenerous support for this exhibition is provided by the University of Michigan Office of the Provost. \n

DESCRIPTION:The Seoul-based art collaborative\, Young-Hae Chang Heavy Industries (YHCHI) is known for innovative video works that exist at the nexus of visual art and digital literature. Blurring the boundaries between media\, technologies\, and cultural histories\, YHCHI has gained international acclaim for their \"net art\" productions-mostly black- and-white videos of quickly flashing capitalized text in a generic font with synchronized music. This exhibition will present a newly commissioned piece by UMMA\, which will be added to the artists' website\, yhchang.com.\n\nThis exhibition is generously supported by the Herbert W. and Susan L. Johe Endowment\, the University of Michigan Office of the Provost\, and the Nam Center for Korean Studies. Additional support provided by the Dr. Robert and Janet Miller Fund.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:Conversations on Europe. “The French Debate on Statistics and Ethnic Minorities:  Historical Roots and Present Concerns”
DESCRIPTION:For two decades French scholars of population and migration have bitterly debated the desirability of state sponsored statistical studies of ethnicity.  The use of ethnic statistics has been seen as a significant departure from the state’s customary refusal to record any other information about the nationality of individuals except for citizenship.  The controversy cuts across the traditional left-right political cleavages in France\, and its intensity is linked to powerful assumptions about the political foundations of the French nation.  Few participants in this debate have considered the issue from a European perspective.  This talk demonstrates that the current debate is linked to an enduring discussion among statisticians going back to the nineteenth century about the possibility of using quantification to objectively treat questions of nationality.\n\nMorgane Labbé is assistant professor at the Ecole des Hautes Etudes en Sciences Sociales in Paris.  Her research examines the history of the population sciences and population policy in central and eastern Europe during the 19th and 20th centuries\, with a particular focus on the links between population questions\, nationalism\, social welfare\, and forms of bureaucratic government.  She is now finishing a book on the emergence of nationalities statistics in this region\, a work that explores the interplay between quantification\, political claims\, and diplomatic expertise.\n\n

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:The Magic of Reality: How We Know What is Really True
DESCRIPTION:A free lecture by Richard Dawkins\, FRS\, about his new book. Supernatural magic is what our ancestors invoked in order to explain the world before they developed the scientific method. The ancient Egyptians explained the night by suggesting that a goddess swallowed the sun. The Vikings believed a rainbow was the gods’ bridge to earth. There is another kind of magic that lies in the exhilaration of discovering the real answers to these questions. It is the magic of reality–science.\n   Professor Dawkins is the author of The Selfish Gene and 11 other books.  In the lobby after the talk\, he will sign copies of his new paperback\, The Magic of Reality\, a book for children and young adults. His talk will be preceeded by a comments by Sean Faircloth\, Director of Strategy and Policy for the Richard Dawkins Foundation for Reason and Science.\n

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

Markovits\, Professor of Comparative Politics and German\, U-M \n\nParticularly in a place like Ann Arbor\, virtually everything associated with the term \"Europe\" and \"European\" is positively coded: culture\, music\, education\, erudition\, history\, geography\, and lifestyle--Cosmopolitanism. There also exists a decidedly Counter-Cosmopolitan Europe\, none more than on its football (soccer) grounds. The lecture will present and analyze this problem.\n

SUMMARY:Exhibition:African Art and the Shape of Time
DESCRIPTION:African Art and the Shape of Time explores how African art gives material form to diverse concepts of temporality\, history and memory. African art is often interpreted in Western analytical frameworks as expressions of timeless myths and rituals\, interrupted only by the colonial encounter. African Art and the Shape of Time complicates such conventional views by considering diverse modes for reckoning time and its philosophical\, social\, and religious significance. The exhibition includes 30 works from the University of Michigan Museum of Art\, National Museum of African Art\, Fowler Museum at UCLA\, as well as several Detroit area private collections\, and is organized around five themes that explore the multiplicity of time in Africa: The Beginning of Things\, Embodied Time\, Moving Through Time\, Global Time\, and \"NOW.\"\n\nThis exhibition is generously supported by the University of Michigan Health System. Additional support provided by the CEW Frances and Sydney Lewis Visiting Leaders Fund.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Benjamin West: General Wolfe and the Art of Empire 
DESCRIPTION:Benjamin West's iconic painting The Death of General Wolfe (1776) depicts the death of James Wolfe\, the British commander at the 1759 Battle of Quebec during what in this country is known as the French and Indian War. In conflating a momentous contemporary event with the genre of large-scale history painting\, West flouted the conventions of academic painting and the work became one of the most celebrated paintings in Britain. The artist went on to produce six versions of the painting\, one of which belongs to the William L. Clements Library at the University of Michigan. Through approximately 40 works from Michigan\, Canadian\, and British collections\, this ambitious and thematically focused exhibition will include the Clements canvas as well as other depictions of James Wolfe and his death on the battlefield.\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

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Discovering Eighteenth-Century British America through the William L. Clements Library Collection
DESCRIPTION:This significant exhibition provides glimpses of British America in the 1700s and is designed to complement the Museum's concurrent exhibition \"Benjamin West: General Wolfe and the Art of Empire\,\" which features the Clements collection's major painting \"The Death of General Wolfe.\" William L. Clements assembled an outstanding array of primary sources on North America dating between 1492 and 1800\, with a heavy emphasis on early European exploration and discovery and the eighteenth-century wars for control of the continent. The exhibition features a mix of rare items from Mr. Clements’s original donation and pieces the Library has acquired since 1923 to complement and enhance its strength in eighteenth-century American history.\n\nGenerous support for this exhibition is provided by the Andrew W. Mellon Foundation.\n

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Jesper Just: \"This Nameless Spectacle\"
DESCRIPTION:Visitors encountering Danish artist Just’s exhibit will find themselves captivated in stages\, as the experience of viewing it unfolds over time. In this breathtaking installation\, as in much of his work\, Just situates the viewer in his signature landscape of beauty\, provocation\, and a general uneasiness that is as seductive as it is ominous. The storyline is at once deceptively simple and perplexing: a wheelchair-bound protagonist travels through a neighborhood in the outskirts of Paris to her apartment\, while a young male character appears to follow her. Once home\, she is able to leave her wheelchair but is overcome by a powerful seizure. One of Just’s unique strengths is his ability to engage the viewer in an open-ended\, unresolved narrative in a manner that is more intriguing than frustrating. It is impossible to parse but equally impossible to abandon\, and this is the essence of Just’s gift for hypnotic storytelling.\nGenerous support for this exhibition is provided by the University of Michigan Office of the Provost. \n

DESCRIPTION:The Seoul-based art collaborative\, Young-Hae Chang Heavy Industries (YHCHI) is known for innovative video works that exist at the nexus of visual art and digital literature. Blurring the boundaries between media\, technologies\, and cultural histories\, YHCHI has gained international acclaim for their \"net art\" productions-mostly black- and-white videos of quickly flashing capitalized text in a generic font with synchronized music. This exhibition will present a newly commissioned piece by UMMA\, which will be added to the artists' website\, yhchang.com.\n\nThis exhibition is generously supported by the Herbert W. and Susan L.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:CREES Noon Lecture
DESCRIPTION:Christian Matijas Mecca\, associate professor of dance\, U-M.\n\nSecond only to The Nutcracker\, Igor Stravinsky's Le Sacre du Printemps is perhaps the most widely known and immediately recognizable ballet score among both dance and music audiences. How then\, can a work with over two-hundred different choreographies and one-hundred commercial recordings be a lost ballet? The reality is that all ballets are\, in some form\, lost ballets\, a byproduct of the ephemeral nature of the medium\, where the dance exists in the moment it is performed and ceases to exist upon its conclusion\, or upon the passing of its creator. When we hear a musical excerpt from The Nutcracker\, Le Sacre\, Swan Lake\, or any score composed for dance and identify it as a ballet\, we are referring to only one-half of an intended whole. Dances are often lost in the collective memories of both dancers and audiences\, whereas the contents of the musical score can be experienced repeatedly and in many cases\, on-demand. As we imagine the physical ballet through the aural experience of a musical score\, we should consider the ballet as lost since it can only be recalled in our imagination. Using Le Sacre du Printemps as an example\, Matijas Mecca will discuss the challenges in preserving choreographies and performance practices in dance and will address the challenges one can face in knowing a dance.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Yahoo! Seminar: Learning to prevent spam
DESCRIPTION:Spam is not only a universal irritant\, but also a major drain on the resources of companies whose businesses are web-based. In today's age of account phishing\, Nigerian princes\, and botnets\, tackling spam needs much more than a simple rule or keyword based classification system. In fact\, thinking about spam classification often raises questions about some of the fundamental assumptions in machine learning and poses significant algorithmic scaling challenges. In this talk\, we will discuss some of the novel algorithmic and machine learning questions motivated by spam.\n\nAbout the speaker:\nAnirban Dasgupta is currently a Senior Scientist at Yahoo! Labs\, where he works on algorithmic problems for massive data sets. He did his undergraduate studies at IIT Kharagpur and doctoral thesis at Cornell University on learning mixtures of distributions using spectral techniques. At Yahoo!\, Anirban has since worked on abuse prevention\, large scale machine learning\, scheduling\, analysis of large social networks and randomized algorithms in general.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Celebrating Artist Sam Karres and his Sketchbooks
DESCRIPTION:Join us for a public exhibit and reception to honor urban expressionist painter Sam Karres who recently donated sketchbooks\, dating from 1975-1996\, to the University of Michigan Library. The collection will support the study of both Greek America and Detroit.\n\nThis exhibit will showcase drawings\, most in pen and ink\, that give visual insights into Detroit and the many characters Karres has encountered along the path of his life. Brief remarks will be followed by light refreshments.\n\nArtist Sam Karres has spent his life deriving inspiration from the city of Detroit. With a sketchbook always in hand\, he captured Greektown before the casino\, at a time when it was truly a Greek neighborhood. Karres worked as an illustrator for Ford Motor Company for 25 years\, but he didn’t let his job interfere with his personal artistic life.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:The Place of Literature in Literature of Place: Travel Writing in Imperial China
DESCRIPTION:Speaker’s abstract: A large body of literary texts survives from the imperial period in China that is often identified as “travel literature” (in modern Chinese: youji wenxue 游記文學). Its prevalence and importance notwithstanding\, this form of writing has not received serious critical attention from scholars. The main purpose of this lecture is to suggest answers to the following questions: (1) What is Chinese “travel literature” and how should it be defined?\; (2) Who wrote travel literature in imperial China and why?\; (3) Is there a “canon” of Chinese travel literature? If so\, then what specific texts constitute that canon and why?\; (4) What literary qualities inform the very “best” Chinese travel writing?\; and (5): what is the role of youji in the overall development of writing about place in imperial China?\n\nFree and open to the public. Light refreshments will be served.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:Two-Day Workshop on Disability and Multi-Sensory Translation: Susan Schweik Lecture: \"Twice-Described Description: Notes Toward an Ekphrastic Culture\"
DESCRIPTION:This workshop will explore relations between literary ekphrasis (traditionally understood as the textual description of a visual work of art) and the kinds of description that disability is thought to occasion. To think of ekphrasis as visual description is to trouble the difference between art and assistance. To think of visual description as ekphrasis is to encourage a visual description that is aware of its ethical responsibilities and its imaginative and persuasive force. The workshop\nwill be both critical and creative: we will look at some classic and contemporary examples of poetic ekphrasis through a disability studies lens\, and we will try our own hands at a critical ekphrastic practice.\n\nSusan Schweik is a professor of English and disability studies and associate dean of arts and humanities at U.C. Berkeley. Her book The Ugly Laws: Disability in Public came out from NYU press in 2009. She is currently at work on projects on eugenics and on disability\, representation\, and Agent Orange.\n

SUMMARY:Performance:Nneka
DESCRIPTION: New Afro-soul from Germany\n\nThe daughter of a Nigerian father and a German mother\, Nneka Egbuna was born in Warri\, in the Delta region of Nigeria at the height of its newfound wealth in the mid-1970s. She soaked up the sounds and rhythms of one of the most musical nations on the planet\, a country where expressing yourself through song is just a part of everyday life\, a country that has music in its very DNA\, where the influence of giants like Afrobeat revolutionary Fela Kuti is never far away. Every year since her musical career took off in 2005\, Nneka has built on her successes\, stretched her muscles\, and widened her range. Her debut album\, \"Victim of Truth\,\" an inspirational mix of hot loops\, black consciousness and 21st-century soul music\, was garlanded with praise by the British media. The Sunday Times called it \"as good as 'The Miseducation of Lauryn Hill.'\" Nneka’s music has a big splash of Bob Marley\, a measure of Nina Simone and a lick of Erykah Badu. But now there’s more of the best ingredient: Nneka herself. Her first U.S. release\, \"Concrete Jungle\,\" is a collection of songs that put the singer-songwriter at the forefront. Catch the most exciting Afro-European talent since Sade in an intimate venue–while you still can!
