SUMMARY:Exhibition:Northern Michigan Landscapes Exhibit
DESCRIPTION:Visit the Pierpont Commons Wall Gallery located just outside of the Commons Cafe to see this beautiful exhibit!\n\nArtist: Rachael Van Dyke\n\nArtist Statement - Northern Michigan Landscapes\n\nGrowing up in a large Italian family where emotions and energy were high\, everything had to be done fast. I showered fast\, ate fast\, talked fast\, walked fast and made things fast. Early on I learned to create quickly\, having to finish my projects in a matter of hours. I learned to work collaboratively and to not become too attached to my work. This childhood dynamic created a need in me to be aggressive in my work\, often cutting through the paint surfaces and restating my lines. Whether I am exploring portraits or landscapes I want my materials to be bold and work fast with me. Exposing that energetic style through a variety of mark making and under-drawing is important to me as it reflects my own zeal for life.\n\nI find myself most comfortable when away from the tradition of easel and canvas. I am often on my hands and knees actively engaged with the drawing\, my feet thick in charcoal and oil bar. Outdoors\, I tape charcoal onto the tip of a 3-foot stick to use as my drawing tool. Using these techniques allow for a more natural\, spontaneous\, and spirited drawing. I am eager to search for shapes of color and light that fall on the planes of the face and the ridge and valleys of land. These organic movements are revealed in my landscape paintings\, through juxtaposing patterns and colors of the farmlands and vineyards of Upstate New York and Northern Michigan.\n\nThe exhibit will be displayed through Thursday\, May 16th.\n\nAll pieces in the exhibit are for sale. Please contact the Center for Campus Involvement 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. CCI hosting an artist’s work does not mean we endorse the artist’s point of view\; we recognize the free speech rights of our exhibitors.

SUMMARY:Conference / Symposium:2013 Color of Change Community Summit
DESCRIPTION:The 2013 Color of Change Community Summit is a 2.5 day-long conference set to take place Friday\, April 12th through Sunday\, April 14th at the University of Michigan School of Social Work. The mission of the Summit is to build community and cultivate power around the lived experiences of queer and trans* people of color (QTPoC) in the state of Michigan. By drawing on the collective wisdom and expertise of our local communities\, we hope to equip Summit participants with the skills they need to be part of the ongoing struggle for liberation.\n\nWe are organizing this conference because we believe it is necessary. Despite recent wins in the national marriage equality movement\, QTPoC continue to fight for their daily survival. This is especially true in the state of Michigan\, where QTPoC suffer from a hostile political environment that perpetuates unequal access to quality education\, routine violence\, and sustained attacks on our health and general well being. Color of Change serves as a student-led response to these injustices.\n\nNote: For the purposes of this conference\, we will be using “queer and trans*” as umbrella terms to refer to anyone who does not solely self-identify as heterosexual and/or cisgender. This includes\, but is not limited to\, folks who identify as gay\, pansexual\, asexual\, questioning\, genderqueer\, same-gender-loving\, stud\, femme\, etc.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Florencia Pita/FP mod
DESCRIPTION:Organized by the University of Michigan Museum of Art\, Florencia Pita/FP mod explores the provocations and intersections of digital technology\, material experimentation\, femininity\, and ornament in the work of Argentina-born\, Los Angeles-based architect and designer Florencia Pita. The exhibition and its related publication\, part of the UMMA Books series\, trace the evolution of Pita's design ideology through installation pieces\, urban design\, tableware\, furniture\, and architecture\, as well as small adornments. Pita's boldly colored works draw from literary\, art\, and biological sources\; employ cutting-edge architectural fabrication techniques\; and cross borders of visual art\, architecture\, and design.\n\nLead support for this exhibition is provided by the Herbert W. and Susan L. Johe Endowment\, Laura Lynch and Hugh McPherson\, and the Graham Foundation for Advanced Studies in the Fine Arts. Additional generous support is provided by Taubman College of Architecture and Urban Planning.\n

SUMMARY:Other:Meet Me at UMMA
DESCRIPTION:To register for this free program\, email umma- ­?tours@umich.edu or call 734.647.0522 for more information.\n\nMeet Me at UMMA invites people with early-stage memory loss to enjoy a guided gallery experience along with family members or caregivers. This program is designed for people who live at home and their companions. \n\nMeet Me at UMMA is based on the premise that although memory may have been compromised\, senses are generally alive and well. Facilitated by a small group of experienced UMMA docents using a multi-sensory approach\, at times complemented by music and props\, the tours offer community members with dementia and their caregivers an opportunity to engage with art\, connect with each other\, and \"bring their senses alive\" through visual art. \n\nThis April’s program will include a look at the work of Ghanian-born artist El Anatsui whose monumental wall and floor sculptures make engaging and dynamic works of art from the simplest\, often discarded materials in the current exhibition\, When I Last Wrote You About Africa.\n

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Race: Are we so different?
DESCRIPTION:People are different.  Throughout history\, these differences have been a source of community strength and personal identity.  They have also been the basis for discrimination and oppression.\n\nThe idea of “race” has been used historically to describe these differences and to justify mistreatment of people and even genocide.  Today\, contemporary scientific understanding of human variation is beginning to challenge “racial” differences\, and even challenge the very concept of race.\n\nRace:  Are we so different?\, developed by the American Anthropological Association in collaboration with the Science Museum of Minnesota\, is the first national exhibition to tell the stories of race from the biological\, cultural\, and historical points of view.  Combining these perspectives offers an unprecedented look at race and racism in the United States.  For more information about the exhibit\, visit www.UnderstandingRace.org. The traveling Race exhibit has inspired the University of Michigan’s Understanding Race Project\, an audience engagement initiative including the campus-wide\, winter term Understanding Race Theme Semester\, centered in the College of Literature\, Science\, and the Arts\; participation by all ten public school districts in Washtenaw County\; and extensive involvement by community members\, nonprofits\, government agencies\, and other groups.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Birthing Reproductive Justice: 150 Years of Images and Ideas
DESCRIPTION:Reproductive Justice -- the right to have children\, not have children\, and parent our children in healthy and safe environments -- is a movement and perspective that arose in the 1990s. Articulated and led by women of color with a more encompassing social vision\, reproductive justice usually incorporates both a framework of human rights and an awareness of the intersectionality of women’s identities and struggles against sexism\, racism\, homophobia\, and economic marginalization.\n\nThis exhibit provides a historical context for the emergence and antecedents of reproductive justice. Given that women's lives have never been reducible to one dimension of their reproductive health\, this exhibit traces a longer history of reproductive justice\, illustrating many facets of experiences\, debates\, and policies related to pregnancy\, birth\, birth control\, and raising children.\n\nThe exhibit is held in conjunction with the conference\, Reproductive Justice: Advocates\, Academics\, Activists in Ann Arbor\, a Michigan Meeting.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Gifts of Art presents Behind the Veil: Monoprint & Mixed Media 
DESCRIPTION:Casey Blanchard is a monoprint and mixed media artist living in Vermont. During her travels\, Blanchard considers no found object too grand or insignificant for expression in the printing medium. She finds the process of monoprinting to be engaging\, fluid\, unpredictable and fun. It is the mysteries behind the frayed veil\, the torn edge and the unspoken word that intrigue her. Blanchard hopes to wake up the viewer's perception\, encouraging in them reflection\, exploration and a connection to meaning. She uses organic materials in her artwork to help draw people to their natural\, healthy and whole state. Blanchard has been involved in arts in healthcare both nationally and internationally.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Gifts of Art presents Birdpants: Mixed Media
DESCRIPTION:Missy Orge creates work that is evocative of scientific curiosities and mounted butterflies\, with a humor that sneaks up and inspires a much closer look. Her current work focuses on birdpants  ̶  tiny\, ornithologically correct pants that “could be for backyard visitors who are either fashion-forward or simply chilly in the Michigan winter.\" She employs traditional craftwork such as quilting\, embroidery and beading to produce highly detailed  ̶  and decidedly non-traditional  ̶  confections that encourage the viewer to consider the possibilities of enticing a chickadee to don a pair of slacks. Making Ann Arbor her home for more than 20 years\, she spends her spare time filling bird feeders in the hope that\, one day\, she can talk a songbird into modeling her creations.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Gifts of Art presents Mediterraneo: Watercolor 
DESCRIPTION:Widely traveled artist Kay Cassill looks for the unusual and the most ordinary views to save in her sketchbook and camera. In her studio\, the sketches and photos give rise to watercolor paintings. Whitewashed walls clinging to a cliff and expressive views of a town as seen by a view of a single walkway are details in her paintings that help viewers feel that they were there. Cassill's postgraduate studies include the University of Iowa\, the Art Student's League in New York City and the Academe de la Grande in Chaumiere\, Paris. Her work is in the permanent collection of the Metropolitan Museum of Art\, New York among others. She maintains a studio on Cape Cod as well as in Michigan.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Gifts of Art presents Newspaper Diary: Color Photography 
DESCRIPTION:For Joanne Leonard\, preserving newspaper clippings is something of an urgent task since future generations may know only digital versions of these fragile pages of newspaper. Through the juxtaposition of news images and images in books\, Leonard creates a conversation in her photographs between present and past. The pictures she makes\, sometimes witty\, often poignant\, are a form of diary\; they reflect her daily observations as she reads the newspaper over morning coffee. Leonard's work has been widely exhibited and published\, including exhibition in the San Francisco Museum of Art's Women of Photography\, and publication in Janson's History of Art\, Gardner's Art Through the Ages\, and the Time-Life Library of Photography.  She is a distinguished Professor Emeritus at U-M.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Gifts of Art presents Paperweights & Studio Glass
DESCRIPTION:The American studio glass movement started in 1962 with glass workshops held at the Toledo Museum of Art. The workshops\, taught by Harvey Littleton along with scientist Dominick Labino\, introduced a small furnace built for working glass that made it possible for artists to work in independent studios. The studio glass movement quickly spread north to Michigan\, and in 1982\, a decision was made that studio glass would be the focus of the University of Michigan-Dearborn permanent art collection\, which is housed at the Alfred Berkowitz Gallery. This exhibition is a portion of that collection\, spotlighting studio glass art by major artists working in the medium\, including Dominick Labino\, Marvin Lipofsky and Richard Ritter.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Northern Michigan Landscapes Exhibit
DESCRIPTION:Visit the Pierpont Commons Wall Gallery located just outside of the Commons Cafe to see this beautiful exhibit!\n\nArtist: Rachael Van Dyke\n\nArtist Statement - Northern Michigan Landscapes\n\nGrowing up in a large Italian family where emotions and energy were high\, everything had to be done fast. I showered fast\, ate fast\, talked fast\, walked fast and made things fast. Early on I learned to create quickly\, having to finish my projects in a matter of hours. I learned to work collaboratively and to not become too attached to my work. This childhood dynamic created a need in me to be aggressive in my work\, often cutting through the paint surfaces and restating my lines. Whether I am exploring portraits or landscapes I want my materials to be bold and work fast with me. Exposing that energetic style through a variety of mark making and under-drawing is important to me as it reflects my own zeal for life.\n\nI find myself most comfortable when away from the tradition of easel and canvas. I am often on my hands and knees actively engaged with the drawing\, my feet thick in charcoal and oil bar. Outdoors\, I tape charcoal onto the tip of a 3-foot stick to use as my drawing tool. Using these techniques allow for a more natural\, spontaneous\, and spirited drawing. I am eager to search for shapes of color and light that fall on the planes of the face and the ridge and valleys of land. These organic movements are revealed in my landscape paintings\, through juxtaposing patterns and colors of the farmlands and vineyards of Upstate New York and Northern Michigan.\n\nThe exhibit will be displayed through Thursday\, May 16th.\n\nAll pieces in the exhibit are for sale. Please contact the Center for Campus Involvement 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. CCI hosting an artist’s work does not mean we endorse the artist’s point of view\; we recognize the free speech rights of our exhibitors.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Race: Are we so different?
DESCRIPTION:People are different.  Throughout history\, these differences have been a source of community strength and personal identity.  They have also been the basis for discrimination and oppression.\n\nThe idea of “race” has been used historically to describe these differences and to justify mistreatment of people and even genocide.  Today\, contemporary scientific understanding of human variation is beginning to challenge “racial” differences\, and even challenge the very concept of race.\n\nRace:  Are we so different?\, developed by the American Anthropological Association in collaboration with the Science Museum of Minnesota\, is the first national exhibition to tell the stories of race from the biological\, cultural\, and historical points of view.  Combining these perspectives offers an unprecedented look at race and racism in the United States.  For more information about the exhibit\, visit www.UnderstandingRace.org. The traveling Race exhibit has inspired the University of Michigan’s Understanding Race Project\, an audience engagement initiative including the campus-wide\, winter term Understanding Race Theme Semester\, centered in the College of Literature\, Science\, and the Arts\; participation by all ten public school districts in Washtenaw County\; and extensive involvement by community members\, nonprofits\, government agencies\, and other groups.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Florencia Pita/FP mod
DESCRIPTION:Organized by the University of Michigan Museum of Art\, Florencia Pita/FP mod explores the provocations and intersections of digital technology\, material experimentation\, femininity\, and ornament in the work of Argentina-born\, Los Angeles-based architect and designer Florencia Pita. The exhibition and its related publication\, part of the UMMA Books series\, trace the evolution of Pita's design ideology through installation pieces\, urban design\, tableware\, furniture\, and architecture\, as well as small adornments. Pita's boldly colored works draw from literary\, art\, and biological sources\; employ cutting-edge architectural fabrication techniques\; and cross borders of visual art\, architecture\, and design.\n\nLead support for this exhibition is provided by the Herbert W. and Susan L. Johe Endowment\, Laura Lynch and Hugh McPherson\, and the Graham Foundation for Advanced Studies in the Fine Arts. Additional generous support is provided by Taubman College of Architecture and Urban Planning.\n

SUMMARY:Performance:Karla Bonoff
DESCRIPTION:Long before Alanis and Jewel\,\" says Billboard\, \"there was a breed of singer/songwriters whose earthly anthems of soul-searching\, heartache\, and joy touched souls in a way few can muster today.\" Karla Bonoff was the best of that breed. This California singer-songwriter looked herself in the eye with each song she wrote\, and her sad\, knowing music was recorded by Linda Ronstadt\, Bonnie Raitt\, Aaron Neville\, Wynonna Judd (\"Tell Me Why\")\, and a host of others\, and a younger generation of female songwriters was listening closely. \"Her melodic sense\, personal lyrics\, and vocal stylings have found their way into the work of everyone from Shawn Colvin and Jonatha Brooke to Sarah McLachlan and Paula Cole\,\" writes Catie Curtis. Today she writes just a few songs a year and makes them count. Karla comes to Michigan with a new live album that Maverick magazine has described as \"like a precious gift from a lost friend.\"

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Birthing Reproductive Justice: 150 Years of Images and Ideas
DESCRIPTION:Reproductive Justice -- the right to have children\, not have children\, and parent our children in healthy and safe environments -- is a movement and perspective that arose in the 1990s. Articulated and led by women of color with a more encompassing social vision\, reproductive justice usually incorporates both a framework of human rights and an awareness of the intersectionality of women’s identities and struggles against sexism\, racism\, homophobia\, and economic marginalization.\n\nThis exhibit provides a historical context for the emergence and antecedents of reproductive justice. Given that women's lives have never been reducible to one dimension of their reproductive health\, this exhibit traces a longer history of reproductive justice\, illustrating many facets of experiences\, debates\, and policies related to pregnancy\, birth\, birth control\, and raising children.\n\nThe exhibit is held in conjunction with the conference\, Reproductive Justice: Advocates\, Academics\, Activists in Ann Arbor\, a Michigan Meeting.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Gifts of Art presents Behind the Veil: Monoprint & Mixed Media 
DESCRIPTION:Casey Blanchard is a monoprint and mixed media artist living in Vermont. During her travels\, Blanchard considers no found object too grand or insignificant for expression in the printing medium. She finds the process of monoprinting to be engaging\, fluid\, unpredictable and fun. It is the mysteries behind the frayed veil\, the torn edge and the unspoken word that intrigue her. Blanchard hopes to wake up the viewer's perception\, encouraging in them reflection\, exploration and a connection to meaning. She uses organic materials in her artwork to help draw people to their natural\, healthy and whole state. Blanchard has been involved in arts in healthcare both nationally and internationally.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Gifts of Art presents Birdpants: Mixed Media
DESCRIPTION:Missy Orge creates work that is evocative of scientific curiosities and mounted butterflies\, with a humor that sneaks up and inspires a much closer look. Her current work focuses on birdpants  ̶  tiny\, ornithologically correct pants that “could be for backyard visitors who are either fashion-forward or simply chilly in the Michigan winter.\" She employs traditional craftwork such as quilting\, embroidery and beading to produce highly detailed  ̶  and decidedly non-traditional  ̶  confections that encourage the viewer to consider the possibilities of enticing a chickadee to don a pair of slacks. Making Ann Arbor her home for more than 20 years\, she spends her spare time filling bird feeders in the hope that\, one day\, she can talk a songbird into modeling her creations.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Gifts of Art presents Newspaper Diary: Color Photography 
DESCRIPTION:For Joanne Leonard\, preserving newspaper clippings is something of an urgent task since future generations may know only digital versions of these fragile pages of newspaper. Through the juxtaposition of news images and images in books\, Leonard creates a conversation in her photographs between present and past. The pictures she makes\, sometimes witty\, often poignant\, are a form of diary\; they reflect her daily observations as she reads the newspaper over morning coffee. Leonard's work has been widely exhibited and published\, including exhibition in the San Francisco Museum of Art's Women of Photography\, and publication in Janson's History of Art\, Gardner's Art Through the Ages\, and the Time-Life Library of Photography.  She is a distinguished Professor Emeritus at U-M.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Gifts of Art presents Paperweights & Studio Glass
DESCRIPTION:The American studio glass movement started in 1962 with glass workshops held at the Toledo Museum of Art. The workshops\, taught by Harvey Littleton along with scientist Dominick Labino\, introduced a small furnace built for working glass that made it possible for artists to work in independent studios. The studio glass movement quickly spread north to Michigan\, and in 1982\, a decision was made that studio glass would be the focus of the University of Michigan-Dearborn permanent art collection\, which is housed at the Alfred Berkowitz Gallery. This exhibition is a portion of that collection\, spotlighting studio glass art by major artists working in the medium\, including Dominick Labino\, Marvin Lipofsky and Richard Ritter.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Northern Michigan Landscapes Exhibit
DESCRIPTION:Visit the Pierpont Commons Wall Gallery located just outside of the Commons Cafe to see this beautiful exhibit!\n\nArtist: Rachael Van Dyke\n\nArtist Statement - Northern Michigan Landscapes\n\nGrowing up in a large Italian family where emotions and energy were high\, everything had to be done fast. I showered fast\, ate fast\, talked fast\, walked fast and made things fast. Early on I learned to create quickly\, having to finish my projects in a matter of hours. I learned to work collaboratively and to not become too attached to my work. This childhood dynamic created a need in me to be aggressive in my work\, often cutting through the paint surfaces and restating my lines. Whether I am exploring portraits or landscapes I want my materials to be bold and work fast with me. Exposing that energetic style through a variety of mark making and under-drawing is important to me as it reflects my own zeal for life.\n\nI find myself most comfortable when away from the tradition of easel and canvas. I am often on my hands and knees actively engaged with the drawing\, my feet thick in charcoal and oil bar. Outdoors\, I tape charcoal onto the tip of a 3-foot stick to use as my drawing tool. Using these techniques allow for a more natural\, spontaneous\, and spirited drawing. I am eager to search for shapes of color and light that fall on the planes of the face and the ridge and valleys of land. These organic movements are revealed in my landscape paintings\, through juxtaposing patterns and colors of the farmlands and vineyards of Upstate New York and Northern Michigan.\n\nThe exhibit will be displayed through Thursday\, May 16th.\n\nAll pieces in the exhibit are for sale. Please contact the Center for Campus Involvement 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. CCI hosting an artist’s work does not mean we endorse the artist’s point of view\; we recognize the free speech rights of our exhibitors.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Race: Are we so different?
DESCRIPTION:People are different.  Throughout history\, these differences have been a source of community strength and personal identity.  They have also been the basis for discrimination and oppression.\n\nThe idea of “race” has been used historically to describe these differences and to justify mistreatment of people and even genocide.  Today\, contemporary scientific understanding of human variation is beginning to challenge “racial” differences\, and even challenge the very concept of race.\n\nRace:  Are we so different?\, developed by the American Anthropological Association in collaboration with the Science Museum of Minnesota\, is the first national exhibition to tell the stories of race from the biological\, cultural\, and historical points of view.  Combining these perspectives offers an unprecedented look at race and racism in the United States.  For more information about the exhibit\, visit www.UnderstandingRace.org. The traveling Race exhibit has inspired the University of Michigan’s Understanding Race Project\, an audience engagement initiative including the campus-wide\, winter term Understanding Race Theme Semester\, centered in the College of Literature\, Science\, and the Arts\; participation by all ten public school districts in Washtenaw County\; and extensive involvement by community members\, nonprofits\, government agencies\, and other groups.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Birthing Reproductive Justice: 150 Years of Images and Ideas
DESCRIPTION:Reproductive Justice -- the right to have children\, not have children\, and parent our children in healthy and safe environments -- is a movement and perspective that arose in the 1990s. Articulated and led by women of color with a more encompassing social vision\, reproductive justice usually incorporates both a framework of human rights and an awareness of the intersectionality of women’s identities and struggles against sexism\, racism\, homophobia\, and economic marginalization.\n\nThis exhibit provides a historical context for the emergence and antecedents of reproductive justice. Given that women's lives have never been reducible to one dimension of their reproductive health\, this exhibit traces a longer history of reproductive justice\, illustrating many facets of experiences\, debates\, and policies related to pregnancy\, birth\, birth control\, and raising children.\n\nThe exhibit is held in conjunction with the conference\, Reproductive Justice: Advocates\, Academics\, Activists in Ann Arbor\, a Michigan Meeting.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Gifts of Art presents Behind the Veil: Monoprint & Mixed Media 
DESCRIPTION:Casey Blanchard is a monoprint and mixed media artist living in Vermont. During her travels\, Blanchard considers no found object too grand or insignificant for expression in the printing medium. She finds the process of monoprinting to be engaging\, fluid\, unpredictable and fun. It is the mysteries behind the frayed veil\, the torn edge and the unspoken word that intrigue her. Blanchard hopes to wake up the viewer's perception\, encouraging in them reflection\, exploration and a connection to meaning. She uses organic materials in her artwork to help draw people to their natural\, healthy and whole state. Blanchard has been involved in arts in healthcare both nationally and internationally.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Gifts of Art presents Birdpants: Mixed Media
DESCRIPTION:Missy Orge creates work that is evocative of scientific curiosities and mounted butterflies\, with a humor that sneaks up and inspires a much closer look. Her current work focuses on birdpants  ̶  tiny\, ornithologically correct pants that “could be for backyard visitors who are either fashion-forward or simply chilly in the Michigan winter.\" She employs traditional craftwork such as quilting\, embroidery and beading to produce highly detailed  ̶  and decidedly non-traditional  ̶  confections that encourage the viewer to consider the possibilities of enticing a chickadee to don a pair of slacks. Making Ann Arbor her home for more than 20 years\, she spends her spare time filling bird feeders in the hope that\, one day\, she can talk a songbird into modeling her creations.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Gifts of Art presents Newspaper Diary: Color Photography 
DESCRIPTION:For Joanne Leonard\, preserving newspaper clippings is something of an urgent task since future generations may know only digital versions of these fragile pages of newspaper. Through the juxtaposition of news images and images in books\, Leonard creates a conversation in her photographs between present and past. The pictures she makes\, sometimes witty\, often poignant\, are a form of diary\; they reflect her daily observations as she reads the newspaper over morning coffee. Leonard's work has been widely exhibited and published\, including exhibition in the San Francisco Museum of Art's Women of Photography\, and publication in Janson's History of Art\, Gardner's Art Through the Ages\, and the Time-Life Library of Photography.  She is a distinguished Professor Emeritus at U-M.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Gifts of Art presents Paperweights & Studio Glass
DESCRIPTION:The American studio glass movement started in 1962 with glass workshops held at the Toledo Museum of Art. The workshops\, taught by Harvey Littleton along with scientist Dominick Labino\, introduced a small furnace built for working glass that made it possible for artists to work in independent studios. The studio glass movement quickly spread north to Michigan\, and in 1982\, a decision was made that studio glass would be the focus of the University of Michigan-Dearborn permanent art collection\, which is housed at the Alfred Berkowitz Gallery. This exhibition is a portion of that collection\, spotlighting studio glass art by major artists working in the medium\, including Dominick Labino\, Marvin Lipofsky and Richard Ritter.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Northern Michigan Landscapes Exhibit
DESCRIPTION:Visit the Pierpont Commons Wall Gallery located just outside of the Commons Cafe to see this beautiful exhibit!\n\nArtist: Rachael Van Dyke\n\nArtist Statement - Northern Michigan Landscapes\n\nGrowing up in a large Italian family where emotions and energy were high\, everything had to be done fast. I showered fast\, ate fast\, talked fast\, walked fast and made things fast. Early on I learned to create quickly\, having to finish my projects in a matter of hours. I learned to work collaboratively and to not become too attached to my work. This childhood dynamic created a need in me to be aggressive in my work\, often cutting through the paint surfaces and restating my lines. Whether I am exploring portraits or landscapes I want my materials to be bold and work fast with me. Exposing that energetic style through a variety of mark making and under-drawing is important to me as it reflects my own zeal for life.\n\nI find myself most comfortable when away from the tradition of easel and canvas. I am often on my hands and knees actively engaged with the drawing\, my feet thick in charcoal and oil bar. Outdoors\, I tape charcoal onto the tip of a 3-foot stick to use as my drawing tool. Using these techniques allow for a more natural\, spontaneous\, and spirited drawing. I am eager to search for shapes of color and light that fall on the planes of the face and the ridge and valleys of land. These organic movements are revealed in my landscape paintings\, through juxtaposing patterns and colors of the farmlands and vineyards of Upstate New York and Northern Michigan.\n\nThe exhibit will be displayed through Thursday\, May 16th.\n\nAll pieces in the exhibit are for sale. Please contact the Center for Campus Involvement 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. CCI hosting an artist’s work does not mean we endorse the artist’s point of view\; we recognize the free speech rights of our exhibitors.

SUMMARY:Conference / Symposium:2013 CBSSM Research Colloquium and Bishop Lecture in Bioethics
DESCRIPTION:The Center for Bioethics and Social Sciences in Medicine (CBSSM) Research Colloquium will take place at the Founders Room\, Alumni Center (200 Fletcher Street\, Ann Arbor\, MI 48109) on April 17\, 2013.  The Colloquium features presentations focusing on bioethics and social sciences in medicine across multiple disciplines.  \n\nThe keynote address is the Bishop Lecture in Bioethics\, an endowed lectureship made possible by a gift from the estate of Ronald C. and Nancy V. Bishop.  Ruth Macklin\, PhD\, Professor of Epidemiology & Population Health and Dr. Shoshanah Trachtenberg Frackman Faculty Scholar in Biomedical Ethics at the Albert Einstein College of Medicine\, will present the Bishop Lecture with a talk entitled\, 'Global Gender Justice:  Violence against women\; whose responsibility?' \n\nKeynote Abstract: In some countries\, governmental authorities have done little to prevent or punish violence against women.  Examples of gender-based violence include not only intimate partner violence\, but also rape as a weapon of war\, civilian rape\, and killing condoned in so-called 'honor cultures.'  Can a theory of global justice shed light on whether external governments or non-governmental groups should take responsibility for remedying the situation?  Who has the responsibility to respond to human rights violations?\n\nThe Bishop Lecture in Bioethics will be jointly presented by the Bishop Lectureship in Bioethics fund and by the Center for Bioethics and Social Sciences in Medicine (CBSSM). \n\nFor more information or to register: http://cbssm.org/events\n\n

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Race: Are we so different?
DESCRIPTION:People are different.  Throughout history\, these differences have been a source of community strength and personal identity.  They have also been the basis for discrimination and oppression.\n\nThe idea of “race” has been used historically to describe these differences and to justify mistreatment of people and even genocide.  Today\, contemporary scientific understanding of human variation is beginning to challenge “racial” differences\, and even challenge the very concept of race.\n\nRace:  Are we so different?\, developed by the American Anthropological Association in collaboration with the Science Museum of Minnesota\, is the first national exhibition to tell the stories of race from the biological\, cultural\, and historical points of view.  Combining these perspectives offers an unprecedented look at race and racism in the United States.  For more information about the exhibit\, visit www.UnderstandingRace.org. The traveling Race exhibit has inspired the University of Michigan’s Understanding Race Project\, an audience engagement initiative including the campus-wide\, winter term Understanding Race Theme Semester\, centered in the College of Literature\, Science\, and the Arts\; participation by all ten public school districts in Washtenaw County\; and extensive involvement by community members\, nonprofits\, government agencies\, and other groups.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:Yahoo! Seminar: Public Libraries as Partners in Development
DESCRIPTION:Barely two decades ago\, public access to information and communication technologies (ICTs) was high on the global development agenda as the best approach to making computers and the internet available to people in low and middle income countries.\n\nPublic libraries\, however\, have been conspicuously absent from this agenda\, with the vast majority of initiatives over this period channeled through non-library institutions. As a result\, only a small fraction of public libraries in the developing world have been equipped with computers and the internet.\n\nToday\, public libraries are making a renewed effort for the attention of the international development and ICT community. However\, this comes at a time when the value of public access to ICTs is being questioned. This is due to a variety of factors\, including doubts about the socio-economic impacts of public access venues to date\, sustainability challenges\, and above all\, the mobile phone revolution.\n\nIs public access ICTs a phenomenon whose time has come and gone? Or has the international development community erred in dismissing the benefits of public access ICTs and public libraries\, which may offer a superior model for delivering ICT resources and services?\n\nDrawing on research at the Technology & Social Change Group at the University of Washington Information School\, Chris Coward will discuss recent findings about the impact of public access ICTs and opportunities for public libraries in future international development efforts.\n\nChris Coward is the co-founder\, principal research scientist\, and director of the Technology & Social Change Group (TASCHA) at the University of Washington Information School. Under his leadership\, TASCHA has grown in size and scope over the last decade\, encompassing research in 50 countries.\n\nChris specializes in designing research programs that improve policy and practice\, typically by working with organizations at the forefront of implementing technology programs for social and economic development. The role of intermediary institutions\, such as community organizations and libraries\, is a common theme in his work.

SUMMARY:Performance:Holly Near
DESCRIPTION:Holly Near hits the road introducing her new two CD Peace Becomes You. For the first time in many years\, she is traveling with a band. The new show is vibrant\, funny\, smart\, musical and uplifting. The best test of any show is the audience and they are saying Holly is singing better than ever - not to mention that the audience itself is a reunion of progressive thinkers! The new material is challenging and contemporary . The old songs come alive in a new way with the addition of a strong rhythm section. Holly Near is a distinguished ambassador for social change\, one of the Thousand Women for Peace collectively nominated for the Nobel Peace Prize. New York Times says \" \"Miss Near”¦. belongs to the folk tradition of Woody Guthrie and the Weavers”. Holly has also been a pioneer for women in music\, starting her own independent record company back in 1972. For more than forty years\, Near has put her gentle wit\, big loving spirit and powerful songwriting to work for peace in the world. Holly Near can entertain like a cabaret singer and challenge the mind like a philosophy professor. One fan said\, \"Holly Near is a divine combination of Judy Garland and Pete Seeger.\" Well\, that is pretty much fun.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Birthing Reproductive Justice: 150 Years of Images and Ideas
DESCRIPTION:Reproductive Justice -- the right to have children\, not have children\, and parent our children in healthy and safe environments -- is a movement and perspective that arose in the 1990s. Articulated and led by women of color with a more encompassing social vision\, reproductive justice usually incorporates both a framework of human rights and an awareness of the intersectionality of women’s identities and struggles against sexism\, racism\, homophobia\, and economic marginalization.\n\nThis exhibit provides a historical context for the emergence and antecedents of reproductive justice. Given that women's lives have never been reducible to one dimension of their reproductive health\, this exhibit traces a longer history of reproductive justice\, illustrating many facets of experiences\, debates\, and policies related to pregnancy\, birth\, birth control\, and raising children.\n\nThe exhibit is held in conjunction with the conference\, Reproductive Justice: Advocates\, Academics\, Activists in Ann Arbor\, a Michigan Meeting.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Gifts of Art presents Behind the Veil: Monoprint & Mixed Media 
DESCRIPTION:Casey Blanchard is a monoprint and mixed media artist living in Vermont. During her travels\, Blanchard considers no found object too grand or insignificant for expression in the printing medium. She finds the process of monoprinting to be engaging\, fluid\, unpredictable and fun. It is the mysteries behind the frayed veil\, the torn edge and the unspoken word that intrigue her. Blanchard hopes to wake up the viewer's perception\, encouraging in them reflection\, exploration and a connection to meaning. She uses organic materials in her artwork to help draw people to their natural\, healthy and whole state. Blanchard has been involved in arts in healthcare both nationally and internationally.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Gifts of Art presents Birdpants: Mixed Media
DESCRIPTION:Missy Orge creates work that is evocative of scientific curiosities and mounted butterflies\, with a humor that sneaks up and inspires a much closer look. Her current work focuses on birdpants  ̶  tiny\, ornithologically correct pants that “could be for backyard visitors who are either fashion-forward or simply chilly in the Michigan winter.\" She employs traditional craftwork such as quilting\, embroidery and beading to produce highly detailed  ̶  and decidedly non-traditional  ̶  confections that encourage the viewer to consider the possibilities of enticing a chickadee to don a pair of slacks. Making Ann Arbor her home for more than 20 years\, she spends her spare time filling bird feeders in the hope that\, one day\, she can talk a songbird into modeling her creations.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Gifts of Art presents Paperweights & Studio Glass
DESCRIPTION:The American studio glass movement started in 1962 with glass workshops held at the Toledo Museum of Art. The workshops\, taught by Harvey Littleton along with scientist Dominick Labino\, introduced a small furnace built for working glass that made it possible for artists to work in independent studios. The studio glass movement quickly spread north to Michigan\, and in 1982\, a decision was made that studio glass would be the focus of the University of Michigan-Dearborn permanent art collection\, which is housed at the Alfred Berkowitz Gallery. This exhibition is a portion of that collection\, spotlighting studio glass art by major artists working in the medium\, including Dominick Labino\, Marvin Lipofsky and Richard Ritter.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Northern Michigan Landscapes Exhibit
DESCRIPTION:Visit the Pierpont Commons Wall Gallery located just outside of the Commons Cafe to see this beautiful exhibit!\n\nArtist: Rachael Van Dyke\n\nArtist Statement - Northern Michigan Landscapes\n\nGrowing up in a large Italian family where emotions and energy were high\, everything had to be done fast. I showered fast\, ate fast\, talked fast\, walked fast and made things fast. Early on I learned to create quickly\, having to finish my projects in a matter of hours. I learned to work collaboratively and to not become too attached to my work. This childhood dynamic created a need in me to be aggressive in my work\, often cutting through the paint surfaces and restating my lines. Whether I am exploring portraits or landscapes I want my materials to be bold and work fast with me. Exposing that energetic style through a variety of mark making and under-drawing is important to me as it reflects my own zeal for life.\n\nI find myself most comfortable when away from the tradition of easel and canvas. I am often on my hands and knees actively engaged with the drawing\, my feet thick in charcoal and oil bar. Outdoors\, I tape charcoal onto the tip of a 3-foot stick to use as my drawing tool. Using these techniques allow for a more natural\, spontaneous\, and spirited drawing. I am eager to search for shapes of color and light that fall on the planes of the face and the ridge and valleys of land. These organic movements are revealed in my landscape paintings\, through juxtaposing patterns and colors of the farmlands and vineyards of Upstate New York and Northern Michigan.\n\nThe exhibit will be displayed through Thursday\, May 16th.\n\nAll pieces in the exhibit are for sale. Please contact the Center for Campus Involvement 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. CCI hosting an artist’s work does not mean we endorse the artist’s point of view\; we recognize the free speech rights of our exhibitors.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Race: Are we so different?
DESCRIPTION:People are different.  Throughout history\, these differences have been a source of community strength and personal identity.  They have also been the basis for discrimination and oppression.\n\nThe idea of “race” has been used historically to describe these differences and to justify mistreatment of people and even genocide.  Today\, contemporary scientific understanding of human variation is beginning to challenge “racial” differences\, and even challenge the very concept of race.\n\nRace:  Are we so different?\, developed by the American Anthropological Association in collaboration with the Science Museum of Minnesota\, is the first national exhibition to tell the stories of race from the biological\, cultural\, and historical points of view.  Combining these perspectives offers an unprecedented look at race and racism in the United States.  For more information about the exhibit\, visit www.UnderstandingRace.org. The traveling Race exhibit has inspired the University of Michigan’s Understanding Race Project\, an audience engagement initiative including the campus-wide\, winter term Understanding Race Theme Semester\, centered in the College of Literature\, Science\, and the Arts\; participation by all ten public school districts in Washtenaw County\; and extensive involvement by community members\, nonprofits\, government agencies\, and other groups.

DESCRIPTION:Conveners: Kathryn Babayan\, ASP Director\, Near Eastern Studies/History\; Richard Antaramian\, Dzovinar Derderian\, Ali Sipahi\, ASP graduate students. U-M. \n\nOver the last three decades scholars of the Middle East have raised new questions and used new methods that have forced them to reconsider approaches of the former generations of scholarship.  These include\, but are not limited to\, critical interrogations of modernization theory and the provenance of the nation-state form. Accounts exclusively based on Armenians\, Kurds\, Syrians\, missionaries\, etc. have emerged\, while the historiography of the Ottoman East has largely been concerned with governmentality studies. Welcome as these changes may be\, the respective turns have had little impact on our study of the Ottoman Empire's eastern borderlands (defined roughly as the area bounded by Ankara\, Mosul\, and Kars). \n\nThe Ottoman East has been viewed largely\, both by contemporary Ottoman statesmen and modern-day historians\, as a periphery of the Ottoman enterprise centered in the imperial capital and western Anatolia. These accounts posit the imperial center as the active agent of history\, seeking to civilize or bring order to its borderlands. This workshop will begin to provincialize the center as it attempts to understand the Ottoman East on its own terms.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Florencia Pita/FP mod
DESCRIPTION:Organized by the University of Michigan Museum of Art\, Florencia Pita/FP mod explores the provocations and intersections of digital technology\, material experimentation\, femininity\, and ornament in the work of Argentina-born\, Los Angeles-based architect and designer Florencia Pita. The exhibition and its related publication\, part of the UMMA Books series\, trace the evolution of Pita's design ideology through installation pieces\, urban design\, tableware\, furniture\, and architecture\, as well as small adornments. Pita's boldly colored works draw from literary\, art\, and biological sources\; employ cutting-edge architectural fabrication techniques\; and cross borders of visual art\, architecture\, and design.\n\nLead support for this exhibition is provided by the Herbert W. and Susan L. Johe Endowment\, Laura Lynch and Hugh McPherson\, and the Graham Foundation for Advanced Studies in the Fine Arts. Additional generous support is provided by Taubman College of Architecture and Urban Planning.\n

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:Conversations on Europe. “The Demiurgic Film Auteur: Emir Kusturica and Utopian Nation-Rebuilding.” 
DESCRIPTION:Giorgio Bertellini\, associate professor of Italian and screen arts and cultures\, U-M.\n\nAfter 1989\, film auteurism in Eastern Europe has shown resilient continuities with the familiar cold-war figure of the politically engaged and heroically dissident filmmaker\, but it has also revealed remarkable novelties. For Emir Kusturica\, the traumatic experience of the Yugoslav wars has perhaps prompted an auteristic drift into new aesthetic and political territories. After the controversial and award-winning Underground (1995)\, he started working with the Belgrade-based band No Smoking Orchestra as film editor and scorer\, as well as band member and concert performer. Filled with slapstick humor and\, for some\, carnivalesque political inconsistency\, his later films have somewhat lost their past artistic appeal while gaining the performative forms of the musical\, the live concert\, and the animated cartoon. More recently\, he has also sought to literalize his ambitions to create a Balkan cultural space toward more demiurgic results. He has designed an ideal village\, Kustendorf\, in Western Serbia\, which serves as home\, site of a film festival\, and center for the preservation of Serbian cultural traditions. Lately\, he has also announced the &quot\;biggest\, most spectacular project of [his] life&quot\;–the controversial construction within Visegrad of the town of Andricgrad\, inspired by the writing of Yugoslavian Nobel literature laureate Ivo Andric. The Sarajevo-born director&#039\;s self-reflexive trajectory raises questions of protean authorial status and national/ethnic representation within the Balkans. His status has changed from committed &quot\;Second World&quot\; visionary filmmaker to cantor of the primitive marginality of his &quot\;lost nation&quot\; and architect of Serbian-as-Yugoslav actual settlements. Has the avant-garde utopia of world redemption found in the Balkan film auteur par excellence another new cleric?\n\nGiorgio Bertellini is associate professor in the Departments of Screen Arts and Cultures and Romance Languages and Literatures. Editor of The Cinema of Italy (2004\; 2007) and Italian Silent Cinema: A Reader (2013)\, he is the author of numerous essays on silent cinema across the Atlantic and of the award-winning Italy in Early American Cinema: Race\, Landscape\, and the Picturesque (Indiana UP\, 2010). More recently he has revised and expanded his 1996 monograph on Bosnian film director Emir Kusturica\, and is preparing an English edition for the Contemporary Film Directors Series of the University of Illinois Press.

DESCRIPTION:Feathers have diverse forms and are an excellent model for studying the development and evolution of morphological traits. The complex structure of feathers allows for various types of morphological changes to occur. The genetic basis of the structural differences between different parts of a feather and between different types of feather is a fundamental question in the study of feather diversity\, but has not been well studied. Dr Li and his colleagues have used genomic\, transcriptomic and proteomic approaches to study this issue. He will present the major results of our research in my talk.

SUMMARY:Performance:Comas
DESCRIPTION:Comas came together as a band in March of 2003. Its members came from different part of the globe\, bringing together their many cultural influences to forge a unique blend of traditional Irish music that literally had them\, months after they formed\, playing in major festivals in Ireland\, Belgium\, France\, England\, Denmark\, and Holland. When you hear Comas you'll know that their choice of name was no accident: it translates from Irish Gaelic as \"Power\,\" and power is exactly what this band is about. It describes their own driving power coupled with a fine sensitivity for the inner strands of magic that is inherent in Irish music. Comas is a band firmly rooted in Irish music\, but with enough space to allow for original compositions. Their openness to new influences and a respectful eye on the past bring Comas to the forefront of what traditional music is about today.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Birthing Reproductive Justice: 150 Years of Images and Ideas
DESCRIPTION:Reproductive Justice -- the right to have children\, not have children\, and parent our children in healthy and safe environments -- is a movement and perspective that arose in the 1990s. Articulated and led by women of color with a more encompassing social vision\, reproductive justice usually incorporates both a framework of human rights and an awareness of the intersectionality of women’s identities and struggles against sexism\, racism\, homophobia\, and economic marginalization.\n\nThis exhibit provides a historical context for the emergence and antecedents of reproductive justice. Given that women's lives have never been reducible to one dimension of their reproductive health\, this exhibit traces a longer history of reproductive justice\, illustrating many facets of experiences\, debates\, and policies related to pregnancy\, birth\, birth control\, and raising children.\n\nThe exhibit is held in conjunction with the conference\, Reproductive Justice: Advocates\, Academics\, Activists in Ann Arbor\, a Michigan Meeting.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Gifts of Art presents Behind the Veil: Monoprint & Mixed Media 
DESCRIPTION:Casey Blanchard is a monoprint and mixed media artist living in Vermont. During her travels\, Blanchard considers no found object too grand or insignificant for expression in the printing medium. She finds the process of monoprinting to be engaging\, fluid\, unpredictable and fun. It is the mysteries behind the frayed veil\, the torn edge and the unspoken word that intrigue her. Blanchard hopes to wake up the viewer's perception\, encouraging in them reflection\, exploration and a connection to meaning. She uses organic materials in her artwork to help draw people to their natural\, healthy and whole state. Blanchard has been involved in arts in healthcare both nationally and internationally.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Gifts of Art presents Birdpants: Mixed Media
DESCRIPTION:Missy Orge creates work that is evocative of scientific curiosities and mounted butterflies\, with a humor that sneaks up and inspires a much closer look. Her current work focuses on birdpants  ̶  tiny\, ornithologically correct pants that “could be for backyard visitors who are either fashion-forward or simply chilly in the Michigan winter.\" She employs traditional craftwork such as quilting\, embroidery and beading to produce highly detailed  ̶  and decidedly non-traditional  ̶  confections that encourage the viewer to consider the possibilities of enticing a chickadee to don a pair of slacks. Making Ann Arbor her home for more than 20 years\, she spends her spare time filling bird feeders in the hope that\, one day\, she can talk a songbird into modeling her creations.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Gifts of Art presents Mediterraneo: Watercolor 
DESCRIPTION:Widely traveled artist Kay Cassill looks for the unusual and the most ordinary views to save in her sketchbook and camera. In her studio\, the sketches and photos give rise to watercolor paintings. Whitewashed walls clinging to a cliff and expressive views of a town as seen by a view of a single walkway are details in her paintings that help viewers feel that they were there. Cassill's postgraduate studies include the University of Iowa\, the Art Student's League in New York City and the Academe de la Grande in Chaumiere\, Paris. Her work is in the permanent collection of the Metropolitan Museum of Art\, New York among others. She maintains a studio on Cape Cod as well as in Michigan.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Gifts of Art presents Newspaper Diary: Color Photography 
DESCRIPTION:For Joanne Leonard\, preserving newspaper clippings is something of an urgent task since future generations may know only digital versions of these fragile pages of newspaper. Through the juxtaposition of news images and images in books\, Leonard creates a conversation in her photographs between present and past. The pictures she makes\, sometimes witty\, often poignant\, are a form of diary\; they reflect her daily observations as she reads the newspaper over morning coffee. Leonard's work has been widely exhibited and published\, including exhibition in the San Francisco Museum of Art's Women of Photography\, and publication in Janson's History of Art\, Gardner's Art Through the Ages\, and the Time-Life Library of Photography.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Gifts of Art presents Paperweights & Studio Glass
DESCRIPTION:The American studio glass movement started in 1962 with glass workshops held at the Toledo Museum of Art. The workshops\, taught by Harvey Littleton along with scientist Dominick Labino\, introduced a small furnace built for working glass that made it possible for artists to work in independent studios. The studio glass movement quickly spread north to Michigan\, and in 1982\, a decision was made that studio glass would be the focus of the University of Michigan-Dearborn permanent art collection\, which is housed at the Alfred Berkowitz Gallery. This exhibition is a portion of that collection\, spotlighting studio glass art by major artists working in the medium\, including Dominick Labino\, Marvin Lipofsky and Richard Ritter.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Northern Michigan Landscapes Exhibit
DESCRIPTION:Visit the Pierpont Commons Wall Gallery located just outside of the Commons Cafe to see this beautiful exhibit!\n\nArtist: Rachael Van Dyke\n\nArtist Statement - Northern Michigan Landscapes\n\nGrowing up in a large Italian family where emotions and energy were high\, everything had to be done fast. I showered fast\, ate fast\, talked fast\, walked fast and made things fast. Early on I learned to create quickly\, having to finish my projects in a matter of hours. I learned to work collaboratively and to not become too attached to my work. This childhood dynamic created a need in me to be aggressive in my work\, often cutting through the paint surfaces and restating my lines. Whether I am exploring portraits or landscapes I want my materials to be bold and work fast with me. Exposing that energetic style through a variety of mark making and under-drawing is important to me as it reflects my own zeal for life.\n\nI find myself most comfortable when away from the tradition of easel and canvas. I am often on my hands and knees actively engaged with the drawing\, my feet thick in charcoal and oil bar. Outdoors\, I tape charcoal onto the tip of a 3-foot stick to use as my drawing tool. Using these techniques allow for a more natural\, spontaneous\, and spirited drawing. I am eager to search for shapes of color and light that fall on the planes of the face and the ridge and valleys of land. These organic movements are revealed in my landscape paintings\, through juxtaposing patterns and colors of the farmlands and vineyards of Upstate New York and Northern Michigan.\n\nThe exhibit will be displayed through Thursday\, May 16th.\n\nAll pieces in the exhibit are for sale. Please contact the Center for Campus Involvement 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. CCI hosting an artist’s work does not mean we endorse the artist’s point of view\; we recognize the free speech rights of our exhibitors.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Race: Are we so different?
DESCRIPTION:People are different.  Throughout history\, these differences have been a source of community strength and personal identity.  They have also been the basis for discrimination and oppression.\n\nThe idea of “race” has been used historically to describe these differences and to justify mistreatment of people and even genocide.  Today\, contemporary scientific understanding of human variation is beginning to challenge “racial” differences\, and even challenge the very concept of race.\n\nRace:  Are we so different?\, developed by the American Anthropological Association in collaboration with the Science Museum of Minnesota\, is the first national exhibition to tell the stories of race from the biological\, cultural\, and historical points of view.  Combining these perspectives offers an unprecedented look at race and racism in the United States.  For more information about the exhibit\, visit www.UnderstandingRace.org. The traveling Race exhibit has inspired the University of Michigan’s Understanding Race Project\, an audience engagement initiative including the campus-wide\, winter term Understanding Race Theme Semester\, centered in the College of Literature\, Science\, and the Arts\; participation by all ten public school districts in Washtenaw County\; and extensive involvement by community members\, nonprofits\, government agencies\, and other groups.

SUMMARY:Conference / Symposium:Fourth Annual International Graduate Student Workshop. “Shared History\, Shared Geography: The Ottoman East.”
DESCRIPTION:Conveners: Kathryn Babayan\, ASP Director\, Near Eastern Studies/History\; Richard Antaramian\, Dzovinar Derderian\, Ali Sipahi\, ASP graduate students. U-M. \n\nOver the last three decades scholars of the Middle East have raised new questions and used new methods that have forced them to reconsider approaches of the former generations of scholarship.  These include\, but are not limited to\, critical interrogations of modernization theory and the provenance of the nation-state form. Accounts exclusively based on Armenians\, Kurds\, Syrians\, missionaries\, etc. have emerged\, while the historiography of the Ottoman East has largely been concerned with governmentality studies. Welcome as these changes may be\, the respective turns have had little impact on our study of the Ottoman Empire's eastern borderlands (defined roughly as the area bounded by Ankara\, Mosul\, and Kars). \n\nThe Ottoman East has been viewed largely\, both by contemporary Ottoman statesmen and modern-day historians\, as a periphery of the Ottoman enterprise centered in the imperial capital and western Anatolia. These accounts posit the imperial center as the active agent of history\, seeking to civilize or bring order to its borderlands. This workshop will begin to provincialize the center as it attempts to understand the Ottoman East on its own terms.

SUMMARY:Class / Instruction:The Golden Age of Comedy–OLLI Study Group (50+)
DESCRIPTION:The comedy of silent films is still hailed by film critics and aficionados as the funniest works in the history of motion pictures. Lacking sound\, film comedians and clowns created a world of physical humor that sometimes achieved the sublime. This course examines the individual artists of the ”˜golden age of comedy’ and considers the more general question\, why is the funny so funny? We will look at some of the early progenitors of silent comedy such as Mack Sennett and the Keystone Cops and pay special attention to Charlie Chaplin and Buster Keaton. Instructor: Ira Konigsberg\n

DESCRIPTION:Organized by the University of Michigan Museum of Art\, Florencia Pita/FP mod explores the provocations and intersections of digital technology\, material experimentation\, femininity\, and ornament in the work of Argentina-born\, Los Angeles-based architect and designer Florencia Pita. The exhibition and its related publication\, part of the UMMA Books series\, trace the evolution of Pita's design ideology through installation pieces\, urban design\, tableware\, furniture\, and architecture\, as well as small adornments. Pita's boldly colored works draw from literary\, art\, and biological sources\; employ cutting-edge architectural fabrication techniques\; and cross borders of visual art\, architecture\, and design.\n\nLead support for this exhibition is provided by the Herbert W. and Susan L. Johe Endowment\, Laura Lynch and Hugh McPherson\, and the Graham Foundation for Advanced Studies in the Fine Arts. Additional generous support is provided by Taubman College of Architecture and Urban Planning.\n

SUMMARY:Performance:The Proclaimers
DESCRIPTION:The Proclaimers are a band led by the Scottish brother duo (they're identical twins) of Craig and Charlie Reid. They signed with the Chrysalis label in 1987 and quickly carved out a niche where pop\, folk\, new wave\, and punk collide. Their songs routinely top singles charts in the UK\, and they've had some major hits stateside as well--like \"I'm Gonna Be (500 Miles)\,\" which was featured in the film \"Benny & Joon.\" The Proclaimers have Scottish accents that are as infectious as their tunes\, and they sing about life and love\, both good and bad\, in their native land. They've just released a new album\, \"Like Comedy\,\" and tonight's show is one of a select group of acoustic dates offered in the U.S. to promote the release. JP Jones opens!

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Birthing Reproductive Justice: 150 Years of Images and Ideas
DESCRIPTION:Reproductive Justice -- the right to have children\, not have children\, and parent our children in healthy and safe environments -- is a movement and perspective that arose in the 1990s. Articulated and led by women of color with a more encompassing social vision\, reproductive justice usually incorporates both a framework of human rights and an awareness of the intersectionality of women’s identities and struggles against sexism\, racism\, homophobia\, and economic marginalization.\n\nThis exhibit provides a historical context for the emergence and antecedents of reproductive justice. Given that women's lives have never been reducible to one dimension of their reproductive health\, this exhibit traces a longer history of reproductive justice\, illustrating many facets of experiences\, debates\, and policies related to pregnancy\, birth\, birth control\, and raising children.\n\nThe exhibit is held in conjunction with the conference\, Reproductive Justice: Advocates\, Academics\, Activists in Ann Arbor\, a Michigan Meeting.

DESCRIPTION:Casey Blanchard is a monoprint and mixed media artist living in Vermont. During her travels\, Blanchard considers no found object too grand or insignificant for expression in the printing medium. She finds the process of monoprinting to be engaging\, fluid\, unpredictable and fun. It is the mysteries behind the frayed veil\, the torn edge and the unspoken word that intrigue her. Blanchard hopes to wake up the viewer's perception\, encouraging in them reflection\, exploration and a connection to meaning. She uses organic materials in her artwork to help draw people to their natural\, healthy and whole state. Blanchard has been involved in arts in healthcare both nationally and internationally.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Gifts of Art presents Birdpants: Mixed Media
DESCRIPTION:Missy Orge creates work that is evocative of scientific curiosities and mounted butterflies\, with a humor that sneaks up and inspires a much closer look. Her current work focuses on birdpants  ̶  tiny\, ornithologically correct pants that “could be for backyard visitors who are either fashion-forward or simply chilly in the Michigan winter.\" She employs traditional craftwork such as quilting\, embroidery and beading to produce highly detailed  ̶  and decidedly non-traditional  ̶  confections that encourage the viewer to consider the possibilities of enticing a chickadee to don a pair of slacks. Making Ann Arbor her home for more than 20 years\, she spends her spare time filling bird feeders in the hope that\, one day\, she can talk a songbird into modeling her creations.

DESCRIPTION:For Joanne Leonard\, preserving newspaper clippings is something of an urgent task since future generations may know only digital versions of these fragile pages of newspaper. Through the juxtaposition of news images and images in books\, Leonard creates a conversation in her photographs between present and past. The pictures she makes\, sometimes witty\, often poignant\, are a form of diary\; they reflect her daily observations as she reads the newspaper over morning coffee. Leonard's work has been widely exhibited and published\, including exhibition in the San Francisco Museum of Art's Women of Photography\, and publication in Janson's History of Art\, Gardner's Art Through the Ages\, and the Time-Life Library of Photography.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Northern Michigan Landscapes Exhibit
DESCRIPTION:Visit the Pierpont Commons Wall Gallery located just outside of the Commons Cafe to see this beautiful exhibit!\n\nArtist: Rachael Van Dyke\n\nArtist Statement - Northern Michigan Landscapes\n\nGrowing up in a large Italian family where emotions and energy were high\, everything had to be done fast. I showered fast\, ate fast\, talked fast\, walked fast and made things fast. Early on I learned to create quickly\, having to finish my projects in a matter of hours. I learned to work collaboratively and to not become too attached to my work. This childhood dynamic created a need in me to be aggressive in my work\, often cutting through the paint surfaces and restating my lines. Whether I am exploring portraits or landscapes I want my materials to be bold and work fast with me. Exposing that energetic style through a variety of mark making and under-drawing is important to me as it reflects my own zeal for life.\n\nI find myself most comfortable when away from the tradition of easel and canvas. I am often on my hands and knees actively engaged with the drawing\, my feet thick in charcoal and oil bar. Outdoors\, I tape charcoal onto the tip of a 3-foot stick to use as my drawing tool. Using these techniques allow for a more natural\, spontaneous\, and spirited drawing. I am eager to search for shapes of color and light that fall on the planes of the face and the ridge and valleys of land. These organic movements are revealed in my landscape paintings\, through juxtaposing patterns and colors of the farmlands and vineyards of Upstate New York and Northern Michigan.\n\nThe exhibit will be displayed through Thursday\, May 16th.\n\nAll pieces in the exhibit are for sale. Please contact the Center for Campus Involvement 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. CCI hosting an artist’s work does not mean we endorse the artist’s point of view\; we recognize the free speech rights of our exhibitors.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Race: Are we so different?
DESCRIPTION:People are different.  Throughout history\, these differences have been a source of community strength and personal identity.  They have also been the basis for discrimination and oppression.\n\nThe idea of “race” has been used historically to describe these differences and to justify mistreatment of people and even genocide.  Today\, contemporary scientific understanding of human variation is beginning to challenge “racial” differences\, and even challenge the very concept of race.\n\nRace:  Are we so different?\, developed by the American Anthropological Association in collaboration with the Science Museum of Minnesota\, is the first national exhibition to tell the stories of race from the biological\, cultural\, and historical points of view.  Combining these perspectives offers an unprecedented look at race and racism in the United States.  For more information about the exhibit\, visit www.UnderstandingRace.org. The traveling Race exhibit has inspired the University of Michigan’s Understanding Race Project\, an audience engagement initiative including the campus-wide\, winter term Understanding Race Theme Semester\, centered in the College of Literature\, Science\, and the Arts\; participation by all ten public school districts in Washtenaw County\; and extensive involvement by community members\, nonprofits\, government agencies\, and other groups.
