SUMMARY:Exhibition:Gifts of Art presents Pierced Porcelain
DESCRIPTION:In this current body of work\, Kate Tremel is interested in taking a fresh look at traditional pottery forms within a functional context. She has returned to a technique that she learned years ago as an exchange student in Peru - thinning and shaping porcelain using a wooden paddle and river stone. Tremel finds the challenge of piercing the thin walls of the clay at their most fragile state to be an exercise in understanding the fleeting tenuousness of beauty itself. Among other things\, Tremel is a lecturer at the U-M Penny W. Stamps School of Art and Design.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Gifts of Art presents Stitched Impressions: Art Quilts
DESCRIPTION:Textile artist Carole Harris is a Detroit native. Her mother introduced her to needle arts at an early age. After receiving a BFA in art and interior design from Wayne State\, she began to explore fibers as an art form. Many of her art quilts have architectural themes but she is most fascinated by the interplay of hue and pattern\, often drawing inspiration from the color\, energy\, movement\, and rhythms of ethnographic rituals as well as jazz\, blues and gospel music. Harris’ goal is to make her quilts dance with the same excitement\, exuberance and joy that music gives her. Her work has been exhibited in museums and galleries nationally and internationally\, and she is much in demand as a lecturer and juror.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Gifts of Art presents The Art of Storytelling: Fabric Appliqué
DESCRIPTION:Chris Roberts-Antieau’s work is about the mysterious origin of joy and the wonder of childhood. To create her witty fabric paintings\, she first hunts for her palette of fabrics: linens\, flannels\, cottons\, calicos\, even velvet. Then she cuts her designs freehand\, using the sewing machine as a drawing tool to define the borders of her figures with a beautiful\, almost invisible satin-stitch. Roberts-Antieau then finishes her pieces with hand embroidery work\, and frames the finished art behind glass in hand-painted frames. On exhibit in permanent collections across the country\, the joy in Roberts-Antieau’s award winning work is contagious.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Sibande On Campus: Exhibit: The wait seems to go on forever (mural\, 2008) 
DESCRIPTION:Rising young South African artist Mary Sibande constructs elaborate visual narratives to consider race\, gender\, and class in post-colonial South Africa. Rooted in her own family’s history of three generations of women as domestic servants\, Sibande’s larger-than-life figures clothed in yards of fabric confront the viewer with the stark limits of cultural heritage as well as the possibility of transformation. Sibande’s Ann Arbor fellowship includes an original installation at the U-M Institute for the Humanities gallery\, a Penny Stamps lecture\, an open studio at the Stamps School on North Campus\, and exhibition of Sibande’s existing work at Gallery DAAS\, the U-M Museum of Art\, and the Stamps School Slusser Gallery.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Four Decades
DESCRIPTION:Four Decades\, a new exhibition featuring the work of School of Art & Design Professor Dennis Guastella and Ron Teachworth will present a retrospective selection of each artist’s work from the 1970's to the present.\n\nA public reception honoring the artists will take place in the Gallery on Sunday\, October 13\, from 3-5pm. (Free parking is available on Sundays.)\n\nBoth artists work in a variety of media\, and have an ongoing commitment to non-objective painting.The richly developed surfaces of Dennis Guastella's paintings demonstrate his passion for the physical beauty of paint explored through a variety of application methods ranging from squeeze bottles to thick layers of acrylic paint that are dried on a non-absorbent surface\, removed\, and then cut and collaged onto a final painting panel. \n\nRon Teachworth's abstractions evolved from his early landscape paintings. These interpretations developed into paintings called \"Sky Fields\" where the entire canvas became a unified surface activated by thousands of small brush strokes of color. \n\nTo learn more about the artists visit their web sites below.\n\nDennis Guastella: http://theartofdennisguastella.blogspot.com\n\nRon Teachworth: http://www.ronteachworth.com\n

In short order\, the 28-year-old singer\, songwriter\, and musician won the seventh season of America’s most popular television show\, \"American Idol\,\" rewrote chart history with a record-breaking 14 debuts on Billboard’s Digital Songs chart\, released his self-titled major-label debut album\, watched it debut at No. 3 on the Billboard album chart\, spawn two Top 20 singles (the platinum “Light On” and “Come Back To Me”)\, and reach platinum status. Then Cook’s older brother\, Adam\, who had been fighting a battle with brain cancer\, died of the disease. The Texas-born\, Missouri-raised songwriter worked through that wiht the help of a batch of deeply honest\, emotional songs that\, David says\, made up \"probably the most therapeutic album I’ve ever written.” A musician and performer since he was a teenager\, David (who first picked up a guitar at age 12 and formed his first band at 15) returns with a new release\, \"Laying Me Low.\" This performer combines serious songwriting chops with rock intensity in live shows that are already legendary. $75 VIP Package tickets for tonight's show include a meet-and-greet with the artist and reserved seating\, front and center.

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:Gifts of Art presents Pierced Porcelain
DESCRIPTION:In this current body of work\, Kate Tremel is interested in taking a fresh look at traditional pottery forms within a functional context. She has returned to a technique that she learned years ago as an exchange student in Peru - thinning and shaping porcelain using a wooden paddle and river stone. Tremel finds the challenge of piercing the thin walls of the clay at their most fragile state to be an exercise in understanding the fleeting tenuousness of beauty itself. Among other things\, Tremel is a lecturer at the U-M Penny W. Stamps School of Art and Design.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Gifts of Art presents Stitched Impressions: Art Quilts
DESCRIPTION:Textile artist Carole Harris is a Detroit native. Her mother introduced her to needle arts at an early age. After receiving a BFA in art and interior design from Wayne State\, she began to explore fibers as an art form. Many of her art quilts have architectural themes but she is most fascinated by the interplay of hue and pattern\, often drawing inspiration from the color\, energy\, movement\, and rhythms of ethnographic rituals as well as jazz\, blues and gospel music. Harris’ goal is to make her quilts dance with the same excitement\, exuberance and joy that music gives her. Her work has been exhibited in museums and galleries nationally and internationally\, and she is much in demand as a lecturer and juror.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Gifts of Art presents The Art of Storytelling: Fabric Appliqué
DESCRIPTION:Chris Roberts-Antieau’s work is about the mysterious origin of joy and the wonder of childhood. To create her witty fabric paintings\, she first hunts for her palette of fabrics: linens\, flannels\, cottons\, calicos\, even velvet. Then she cuts her designs freehand\, using the sewing machine as a drawing tool to define the borders of her figures with a beautiful\, almost invisible satin-stitch. Roberts-Antieau then finishes her pieces with hand embroidery work\, and frames the finished art behind glass in hand-painted frames. On exhibit in permanent collections across the country\, the joy in Roberts-Antieau’s award winning work is contagious.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Four Decades
DESCRIPTION:Four Decades\, a new exhibition featuring the work of School of Art & Design Professor Dennis Guastella and Ron Teachworth will present a retrospective selection of each artist’s work from the 1970's to the present.\n\nA public reception honoring the artists will take place in the Gallery on Sunday\, October 13\, from 3-5pm. (Free parking is available on Sundays.)\n\nBoth artists work in a variety of media\, and have an ongoing commitment to non-objective painting.The richly developed surfaces of Dennis Guastella's paintings demonstrate his passion for the physical beauty of paint explored through a variety of application methods ranging from squeeze bottles to thick layers of acrylic paint that are dried on a non-absorbent surface\, removed\, and then cut and collaged onto a final painting panel. \n\nRon Teachworth's abstractions evolved from his early landscape paintings. These interpretations developed into paintings called \"Sky Fields\" where the entire canvas became a unified surface activated by thousands of small brush strokes of color. \n\nTo learn more about the artists visit their web sites below.\n\nDennis Guastella: http://theartofdennisguastella.blogspot.com\n\nRon Teachworth: http://www.ronteachworth.com\n

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Sibande On Campus: Exhibit: prints 
DESCRIPTION:Rising young South African artist Mary Sibande constructs elaborate visual narratives to consider race\, gender\, and class in post-colonial South Africa. Rooted in her own family’s history of three generations of women as domestic servants\, Sibande’s larger-than-life figures clothed in yards of fabric confront the viewer with the stark limits of cultural heritage as well as the possibility of transformation. Sibande’s Ann Arbor fellowship includes an original installation at the U-M Institute for the Humanities gallery\, a Penny Stamps lecture\, an open studio at the Stamps School on North Campus\, and exhibition of Sibande’s existing work at Gallery DAAS\, the U-M Museum of Art\, and the Stamps School Slusser Gallery.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:\"The Constitution of State/Space and the Limits of 'Autonomy' in South Africa and Palestine/Israel.\"
DESCRIPTION:Andy Clarno\, Assistant Professor\, Department of Sociology\, University of Illinois at Chicago.\nThis paper presents a comparative historical analysis of similar state spatial strategies employed by Israel and South Africa.  At different world-historical times\, both states created “autonomous” spaces inside the territory over which they exercised sovereignty. In these spaces–“Bantustans” in the language of apartheid\, “Area A” in the language of the Oslo Accords–Palestinians and black South Africans could exercise limited “autonomy” and perhaps even nominal “independence” but remained subject to the sovereign power of the state.  Focusing on three dimensions of these state spatial strategies (citizenship\, governmentality\, and labor regulation)\, the first part of this chapter argues that the production of these “spaces of exception” is fundamental to the constitution of sovereignty in colonial-settler states. The second half of the chapter considers the imperial transition of the 1990s as an intervening mechanism in the production of state/space.  Global power relations were fundamentally transformed in the late twentieth century as a result of the military dominance of the United States\, the unprecedented power of multinational corporations\, and the global hegemony of neoliberal economics. This transition helps explain four important differences between the Bantustan strategy in South Africa and the enclosure strategy in Palestine/Israel.  By analyzing state strategies to produce spaces of exception before and after this shift in global power relations\, I hope to contribute to the analysis of sovereignty in the empire of the early twenty-first century.

SUMMARY:Performance:Della Mae
DESCRIPTION:This Boston-based acoustic combo mines time-honored elements to create music that's unmistakably fresh and contemporary. Since the release of their DIY album \"I Built This Heart\" a couple of years ago\, Della Mae has quickly won an enthusiastic following through their high-energy live performances at festivals around the country. \"This World Oft Can Be\,\" Della Mae's second album and Rounder-label debut\, shows that like the Avett Brothers\, Lumineers\, and Punch Brothers\, these five multitalented young women are respectful of American musical tradition\, but not restricted by it\, combining centuries' worth of musical influences with an emotionally tough\, undeniably modern songwriting sensibility. In addition to playing festivals and clubs throughout the United States\, Della Mae recently expanded the scale of its touring efforts after participating in the U.S. State Department's American Music Abroad program. Selected as cultural ambassadors\, the band spent 43 days traveling in Pakistan\, Kazakhstan\, Kyrgyzstan\, Tajikistan\, Turkmenistan and Uzbekistan\, where they collaborated with local musicians\, taught educational programs for children\, and played concerts for local audiences.

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.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Gifts of Art presents Pierced Porcelain
DESCRIPTION:In this current body of work\, Kate Tremel is interested in taking a fresh look at traditional pottery forms within a functional context. She has returned to a technique that she learned years ago as an exchange student in Peru - thinning and shaping porcelain using a wooden paddle and river stone. Tremel finds the challenge of piercing the thin walls of the clay at their most fragile state to be an exercise in understanding the fleeting tenuousness of beauty itself. Among other things\, Tremel is a lecturer at the U-M Penny W. Stamps School of Art and Design.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Gifts of Art presents Poodle Stories: Whiteware Clay
DESCRIPTION:Ann Arbor artist Lilli Blackburn creates functional and sculptural works in clay. In this body of work\, poodles are represented in various dilemmas of life. The functional white ware is lighthearted\, so simple tasks such as eating and drinking can become playful. Each piece is individually handcrafted with feedback from her standard parti (two-colored) poodle\, who loves to crack a joke. Blackburn earned a BFA from Ohio State University\, and her studio is Grins Clay.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Gifts of Art presents Stitched Impressions: Art Quilts
DESCRIPTION:Textile artist Carole Harris is a Detroit native. Her mother introduced her to needle arts at an early age. After receiving a BFA in art and interior design from Wayne State\, she began to explore fibers as an art form. Many of her art quilts have architectural themes but she is most fascinated by the interplay of hue and pattern\, often drawing inspiration from the color\, energy\, movement\, and rhythms of ethnographic rituals as well as jazz\, blues and gospel music. Harris’ goal is to make her quilts dance with the same excitement\, exuberance and joy that music gives her. Her work has been exhibited in museums and galleries nationally and internationally\, and she is much in demand as a lecturer and juror.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Gifts of Art presents The Art of Storytelling: Fabric Appliqué
DESCRIPTION:Chris Roberts-Antieau’s work is about the mysterious origin of joy and the wonder of childhood. To create her witty fabric paintings\, she first hunts for her palette of fabrics: linens\, flannels\, cottons\, calicos\, even velvet. Then she cuts her designs freehand\, using the sewing machine as a drawing tool to define the borders of her figures with a beautiful\, almost invisible satin-stitch. Roberts-Antieau then finishes her pieces with hand embroidery work\, and frames the finished art behind glass in hand-painted frames. On exhibit in permanent collections across the country\, the joy in Roberts-Antieau’s award winning work is contagious.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:CCS Noon Lecture Series. \"Marriage Networks and the Geography of Power in Ninth-Century China\"
DESCRIPTION:How does one account for the long-term survival of the medieval Chinese aristocratic clans despite important institutional developments\, including the expanded use of the civil service examinations? How does one then explain the sudden collapse of these families at the turn of the tenth century? By exploiting a large prosopographic database\, this paper will explore how a better understanding of the geographic distribution of political power and of the Tang political elite's social networks can help resolve these questions.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Four Decades
DESCRIPTION:Four Decades\, a new exhibition featuring the work of School of Art & Design Professor Dennis Guastella and Ron Teachworth will present a retrospective selection of each artist’s work from the 1970's to the present.\n\nA public reception honoring the artists will take place in the Gallery on Sunday\, October 13\, from 3-5pm. (Free parking is available on Sundays.)\n\nBoth artists work in a variety of media\, and have an ongoing commitment to non-objective painting.The richly developed surfaces of Dennis Guastella's paintings demonstrate his passion for the physical beauty of paint explored through a variety of application methods ranging from squeeze bottles to thick layers of acrylic paint that are dried on a non-absorbent surface\, removed\, and then cut and collaged onto a final painting panel. \n\nRon Teachworth's abstractions evolved from his early landscape paintings. These interpretations developed into paintings called \"Sky Fields\" where the entire canvas became a unified surface activated by thousands of small brush strokes of color. \n\nTo learn more about the artists visit their web sites below.\n\nDennis Guastella: http://theartofdennisguastella.blogspot.com\n\nRon Teachworth: http://www.ronteachworth.com\n

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:Human Rights Initiative Lecture: \"Socializing States: How to Promote Human Rights through International Law\"
DESCRIPTION:Guest lecturer Ryan Goodman will explore the subject of network analysis.\n\nNetwork analysis has emerged as one of the most powerful tools for policy makers\, stakeholders\, and academics interested in political and social change. As a recent survey in the Annual Review of Political Science explains\, “network analysis ”¦ offers a means of addressing one of the holy grails of the social sciences: effectively analyzing the interdependence and flows of influence among individuals\, groups\, and institutions.” Social network theorists study the structure of connections between members of a relevant network. The composition of these social ties and the relative position of actors within these structures are generally thought to influence the prospects for\, and patterns of\, the diffusion of ideas and behaviors.\n\nNetwork analysis needs to play a greater role in theory construction and empirical study of the effects of international law. Most relevant is network research that directly examines the state–rather than research that extrapolates from the study of individuals and other groups. This body of network analysis poses several important challenges to existing approaches in international law. It also yields important new insights--and suggests new lines of inquiry--about how best to understand the power and perils of international legal regimes. These intellectual payoffs are especially true when one taps into empirical studies that take seriously cultural mechanisms of diffusion across interstate networks. We thus highlight forms of socialization–such as emulation\, social persuasion\, cognitive identity formation--that can propel the spread of behavioral norms and reshape preferences across interstate networks.  The available research should help us to build more effective and principled global institutions.

DESCRIPTION:Harvey Pekar’s self-published series American Splendor proved that comics could be more than just super-heroes. Pekar’s legacy pervades much of contemporary independent comix. This presentation charts the final work of Pekar\, Not The Israel My Parents Promised Me\, a graphic novel published by Hill & Wang in July 2012. Told over the course of a single day in Cleveland\, Ohio\, the book follows Pekar and myself as we wrestle with the mythologies and realities surrounding the Jewish homeland.  This session is an invitation to explore Jewish identity and Israel through comix. I will discuss what it was like working with the famous curmudgeon and present rare video footage and drawings of “Our Man” before his untimely death in 2010.

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:Gifts of Art presents Pierced Porcelain
DESCRIPTION:In this current body of work\, Kate Tremel is interested in taking a fresh look at traditional pottery forms within a functional context. She has returned to a technique that she learned years ago as an exchange student in Peru - thinning and shaping porcelain using a wooden paddle and river stone. Tremel finds the challenge of piercing the thin walls of the clay at their most fragile state to be an exercise in understanding the fleeting tenuousness of beauty itself. Among other things\, Tremel is a lecturer at the U-M Penny W. Stamps School of Art and Design.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Gifts of Art presents Stitched Impressions: Art Quilts
DESCRIPTION:Textile artist Carole Harris is a Detroit native. Her mother introduced her to needle arts at an early age. After receiving a BFA in art and interior design from Wayne State\, she began to explore fibers as an art form. Many of her art quilts have architectural themes but she is most fascinated by the interplay of hue and pattern\, often drawing inspiration from the color\, energy\, movement\, and rhythms of ethnographic rituals as well as jazz\, blues and gospel music. Harris’ goal is to make her quilts dance with the same excitement\, exuberance and joy that music gives her. Her work has been exhibited in museums and galleries nationally and internationally\, and she is much in demand as a lecturer and juror.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Gifts of Art presents The Art of Storytelling: Fabric Appliqué
DESCRIPTION:Chris Roberts-Antieau’s work is about the mysterious origin of joy and the wonder of childhood. To create her witty fabric paintings\, she first hunts for her palette of fabrics: linens\, flannels\, cottons\, calicos\, even velvet. Then she cuts her designs freehand\, using the sewing machine as a drawing tool to define the borders of her figures with a beautiful\, almost invisible satin-stitch. Roberts-Antieau then finishes her pieces with hand embroidery work\, and frames the finished art behind glass in hand-painted frames. On exhibit in permanent collections across the country\, the joy in Roberts-Antieau’s award winning work is contagious.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Ten Thousand Urban and Rural Things: BASEbeijing
DESCRIPTION: The number ten thousand is not an exact number in Chinese. Traditionally\, ten thousand was thought of as such an unimaginably large number that it became the equivalent of infinity. The concept includes everything you can point to or even name -- all of reality.\n\nIt is sometimes translated as \"myriad creatures\" or \"ten thousand beings\,\" but that makes one falsely assume that the concept includes only living creatures. The ten thousand things also includes inanimate objects (such as rocks\, buildings\, stars)\, emptiness (like outer space or vacuums)\, and abstractions (such as dreams\, thoughts\, principles\, beliefs\, language\, the Internet).\n\nThe work done at BASEbeijing since 2006 has been a quest for finding\, experiencing\, collecting and acting upon ten thousand urban and rural things. The things collected and exhibited are a combination of \"real\" things\, forgeries\, duplications and representations. The work in the exhibit involved \"acting upon\" the ten thousand things\, often taking the form of books\, designed objects and structures done while in residence at BASE. While BASE was founded on a commitment to an interest in urban space\, our attention was quickly pulled toward the rural\, and we have come to find a surprising new space that is not one or the other\, but rather a continuity that involves both simultaneously.\n\nBASEbeijing is a collaboration involving students from Taubman College\, the University of Michigan\, and various schools in both the U.S. and China.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:CREES Noon Lecture
DESCRIPTION:Elena Osokina\, professor of Russian history\, University of South Carolina.\n\nIn the 1930s\, to aid Soviet industrialization the Stalinist leadership sold antiques and art abroad literally by the thousands of tons. It was unfortunate for the USSR that the most active period in the art export coincided with the world economic crisis. Market prices\, including those for art\, dropped drastically. To fulfill its “currency targets” the Soviet government had to shift from the export of ordinary antiques to masterpieces\, including major works of art from the Hermitage. The masterpieces sold by the Soviet government to finance industrialization became important holdings of many world famous museums. This talk will explore the impact that Stalin’s art export had on building the core of the National Gallery of Art in Washington\, D.C. and the role of the United States Secretary of the Treasury\, Andrew W. Mellon\, who became one of the most famous buyers of art from the Soviet museums.\n\nElena A. Osokina\, professor of Russian history at the University of South Carolina\, received her Ph.D. from the Department of History at Moscow University\, Russia. She is the author of Gold for Industrialization: Torgsin (Rosspen\, 2009\, in Russian)\, Our Daily Bread: Socialist Distribution and the Art of Survival in Stalin’s Russia\, 1927-1941 (M.E. Sharpe\, 2001)\, Hierarchy of Consumption: Life under the Stalinist Rationing System\, 1928-1935 (MGOU\, 1993\, in Russian)\, and numerous articles on Russian and Soviet social and economic history. She is currently engaged in a research project\, “Rembrandts for Tractors\,” that explores the social\, economic and cultural effects of the Soviet mass art exports under Stalin to finance Soviet industrialization. Osokina is a recipient of the fellowships from the Kennan Institute-Woodrow Wilson Center\, NEH\, Fulbright\, National Gallery of Art\, Hoover Institution\, Maison des Sciences de l’Homme (Paris)\, Harvard University’s Davis Center for Russian Studies\, Aleksanteri Institute (Helsinki)\, and others.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Four Decades
DESCRIPTION:Four Decades\, a new exhibition featuring the work of School of Art & Design Professor Dennis Guastella and Ron Teachworth will present a retrospective selection of each artist’s work from the 1970's to the present.\n\nA public reception honoring the artists will take place in the Gallery on Sunday\, October 13\, from 3-5pm. (Free parking is available on Sundays.)\n\nBoth artists work in a variety of media\, and have an ongoing commitment to non-objective painting.The richly developed surfaces of Dennis Guastella's paintings demonstrate his passion for the physical beauty of paint explored through a variety of application methods ranging from squeeze bottles to thick layers of acrylic paint that are dried on a non-absorbent surface\, removed\, and then cut and collaged onto a final painting panel. \n\nRon Teachworth's abstractions evolved from his early landscape paintings. These interpretations developed into paintings called \"Sky Fields\" where the entire canvas became a unified surface activated by thousands of small brush strokes of color. \n\nTo learn more about the artists visit their web sites below.\n\nDennis Guastella: http://theartofdennisguastella.blogspot.com\n\nRon Teachworth: http://www.ronteachworth.com\n

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Sibande On Campus: Exhibit: prints 
DESCRIPTION:Rising young South African artist Mary Sibande constructs elaborate visual narratives to consider race\, gender\, and class in post-colonial South Africa. Rooted in her own family’s history of three generations of women as domestic servants\, Sibande’s larger-than-life figures clothed in yards of fabric confront the viewer with the stark limits of cultural heritage as well as the possibility of transformation. Sibande’s Ann Arbor fellowship includes an original installation at the U-M Institute for the Humanities gallery\, a Penny Stamps lecture\, an open studio at the Stamps School on North Campus\, and exhibition of Sibande’s existing work at Gallery DAAS\, the U-M Museum of Art\, and the Stamps School Slusser Gallery.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:Fleeting Beauty\, Enduring Consequences
DESCRIPTION:The University of Michigan Nichols Arboretum Peony Garden is the largest collection of heirloom peonies in North America and now takes the lead role in an international initiative to preserve and catalog living historic peonies by aesthetic\, cultural\, and scientific criteria. Yet these abstract criteria quickly present very real and conflicting decision points about which peonies to save from extinction. Matthaei-Nichols Curator Dr. David C. Michener discusses these issues and the remarkable role the garden plays as a global reference collection. Audience members are invited to critique the decision process and the project trajectory following an illustrated presentation. \n\nThe Peony Garden\, started in 1922 with a gift from Dr. W. E. Upjohn (UM Class of 1875)\, is being stewarded as a distinctive living collection in a museum context with deepening roles as a public icon\, cross-cultural resource\, genomic treasury and DNA-fingerprinted research tool. Public and academic users are being provided with unparalleled access to the living plants\, their records and their literature. Visit the Nichols Arboretum Peony Garden website for more information: mbgna.umich.edu/peony/.

These musical friends are gathering in concert to share with audiences a musical experience that customarily only happens behind closed doors\, whether backstage at a festival or at a Nashville picking party. With each member being a front man in his own right\, the band will present an evening of original and classic bluegrass music.\n\nNOAM PIKELNY has emerged as the preeminent banjoist among a new generation of acoustic musicians. Hailed by the Chicago Tribune as the \"pros' top banjo picker\,\" Noam is a founding member of Punch Brothers and has helped broaden the awareness of the banjo in the mainstream through numerous collaborations on stage and in the studio.

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.

DESCRIPTION:In this current body of work\, Kate Tremel is interested in taking a fresh look at traditional pottery forms within a functional context. She has returned to a technique that she learned years ago as an exchange student in Peru - thinning and shaping porcelain using a wooden paddle and river stone. Tremel finds the challenge of piercing the thin walls of the clay at their most fragile state to be an exercise in understanding the fleeting tenuousness of beauty itself. Among other things\, Tremel is a lecturer at the U-M Penny W. Stamps School of Art and Design.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Gifts of Art presents Stitched Impressions: Art Quilts
DESCRIPTION:Textile artist Carole Harris is a Detroit native. Her mother introduced her to needle arts at an early age. After receiving a BFA in art and interior design from Wayne State\, she began to explore fibers as an art form. Many of her art quilts have architectural themes but she is most fascinated by the interplay of hue and pattern\, often drawing inspiration from the color\, energy\, movement\, and rhythms of ethnographic rituals as well as jazz\, blues and gospel music. Harris’ goal is to make her quilts dance with the same excitement\, exuberance and joy that music gives her. Her work has been exhibited in museums and galleries nationally and internationally\, and she is much in demand as a lecturer and juror.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Gifts of Art presents The Art of Storytelling: Fabric Appliqué
DESCRIPTION:Chris Roberts-Antieau’s work is about the mysterious origin of joy and the wonder of childhood. To create her witty fabric paintings\, she first hunts for her palette of fabrics: linens\, flannels\, cottons\, calicos\, even velvet. Then she cuts her designs freehand\, using the sewing machine as a drawing tool to define the borders of her figures with a beautiful\, almost invisible satin-stitch. Roberts-Antieau then finishes her pieces with hand embroidery work\, and frames the finished art behind glass in hand-painted frames. On exhibit in permanent collections across the country\, the joy in Roberts-Antieau’s award winning work is contagious.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Ten Thousand Urban and Rural Things: BASEbeijing
DESCRIPTION: The number ten thousand is not an exact number in Chinese. Traditionally\, ten thousand was thought of as such an unimaginably large number that it became the equivalent of infinity. The concept includes everything you can point to or even name -- all of reality.\n\nIt is sometimes translated as \"myriad creatures\" or \"ten thousand beings\,\" but that makes one falsely assume that the concept includes only living creatures. The ten thousand things also includes inanimate objects (such as rocks\, buildings\, stars)\, emptiness (like outer space or vacuums)\, and abstractions (such as dreams\, thoughts\, principles\, beliefs\, language\, the Internet).\n\nThe work done at BASEbeijing since 2006 has been a quest for finding\, experiencing\, collecting and acting upon ten thousand urban and rural things. The things collected and exhibited are a combination of \"real\" things\, forgeries\, duplications and representations. The work in the exhibit involved \"acting upon\" the ten thousand things\, often taking the form of books\, designed objects and structures done while in residence at BASE. While BASE was founded on a commitment to an interest in urban space\, our attention was quickly pulled toward the rural\, and we have come to find a surprising new space that is not one or the other\, but rather a continuity that involves both simultaneously.\n\nBASEbeijing is a collaboration involving students from Taubman College\, the University of Michigan\, and various schools in both the U.S. and China.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:Opera and Politics as Bedfellows--OLLI at U-M (50+)
DESCRIPTION:Speaker: Richard C. Adelman\, Ph.d. Emeritus Professor of Biological Chemistry\, U-M\n\n\nOpera and politics attract one another. Some composers and producers utilize political events to shape operas. on the other hand\, recollection of some memorable operatic moments enriches political commentary by news and entertainment media in contemporary and future times. each of these scenarios evokes a range of dramatic emotions from humor to tragedy and outrage. This presentation uses selected scenes from Richard Wagner’s “Ring Cycle” and John Adams’s “The Death of Klinghoffer” to provide insight into the ways that politics and opera shape one another and to contemplate specific roles of humor and tragedy within the context of those interactions.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Four Decades
DESCRIPTION:Four Decades\, a new exhibition featuring the work of School of Art & Design Professor Dennis Guastella and Ron Teachworth will present a retrospective selection of each artist’s work from the 1970's to the present.\n\nA public reception honoring the artists will take place in the Gallery on Sunday\, October 13\, from 3-5pm. (Free parking is available on Sundays.)\n\nBoth artists work in a variety of media\, and have an ongoing commitment to non-objective painting.The richly developed surfaces of Dennis Guastella's paintings demonstrate his passion for the physical beauty of paint explored through a variety of application methods ranging from squeeze bottles to thick layers of acrylic paint that are dried on a non-absorbent surface\, removed\, and then cut and collaged onto a final painting panel. \n\nRon Teachworth's abstractions evolved from his early landscape paintings. These interpretations developed into paintings called \"Sky Fields\" where the entire canvas became a unified surface activated by thousands of small brush strokes of color. \n\nTo learn more about the artists visit their web sites below.\n\nDennis Guastella: http://theartofdennisguastella.blogspot.com\n\nRon Teachworth: http://www.ronteachworth.com\n

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:Peter Whiteley Lecture\, \"What's in a Hopi Name?\"
DESCRIPTION:Hopi personal names and place names encode a wealth of cultural information. Personal names are like haikus: compact poetic images of aesthetic forms or natural events. Place names are guideposts of cosmology\, historical consciousness\, and cultural practices. This talk addresses some dimensions of Hopitutungwni\, Hopi names.\n\nDr. Peter Whiteley (Curator\, North American Ethnology - Anthropology\nProfessor\, Richard Gilder Graduate School - Richard Gilder Graduate School) studies Native North American cultures ethnographically and historically. His main focus is the Hopi of northern Arizona\, where he began fieldwork in 1980\, resulting in four books and monographs: Deliberate Acts: Changing Hopi Culture through the Oraibi Split (University of Arizona Press\, 1988)\, Bacavi: Journey to Reed Springs (Northland Press\, 1988)\, Rethinking Hopi Ethnography (Smithsonian Institution Press\, 1998)\, and The Orayvi Split: a Hopi Transformation (Anthropological Papers of the American Museum of Natural History\, 2008). In 2005\, his paper Bartering Pahos with the President\, on a Hopi diplomatic gift\, won the Robert F. Heizer Prize for “best article in the field of ethnohistory.” Current Hopi work includes a collaborative project (funded by the National Science Foundation’s Endangered Languages program) on Hopi place-names and landscape concepts\, with the Hopi Office of Cultural Preservation and colleagues at the University of Arizona.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:EEB Thursday Seminar Series
DESCRIPTION:An ant colony operates without central control. No ant can assess what needs to be done. Each ant responds to its interactions with other ants nearby. In the aggregate\, these stochastic\, dynamical networks of interaction regulate colony behavior. Ants are extremely diverse\, and species differences in collective behavior reflect relations with diverse environments.\n\nA long-term study of desert seed-eating ants shows that colonies regulate foraging activity according to food availability and current humidity.  Colonies differ in how they regulate foraging behavior. Matching parent and offspring colonies made it possible to estimate a life table for this population of colonies and to ask how collective behavior is evolving in current drought conditions. It appears that colonies that regulate foraging so as to conserve water are having more offspring colonies.\n\nStudies of other species\, such as tropical arboreal ants in Mexico\, and the invasive Argentine ant in northern California\, suggest how different collective algorithms evolve in other environmental conditions.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:Feminism and the Politics of Welfare
DESCRIPTION:Speaker: Premilla Nadasen (History\, Queens College\, CUNY)\n\n“Food stamp fraud” and “welfare cheat” are the buzzwords that dominate the debate about poverty and government assistance today\, as conservative politicians fret over the growing number of poor Americans qualifying for SNAP assistance. The stigmatization and criminalization of recipients of public assistance are not new.  \n\nPremilla Nadasen\, author of \"Welfare Warriors\,\" looks back at the emergence of the “welfare queen” stereotype and the vibrant movement for welfare rights in the 1960s and 1970s and asks what we can learn from it about gender\, race\, ideology and the struggle for a decent standard of living.

SUMMARY:Other:Self Esteem and Relationships\; A Relationship Enhancement Series 
DESCRIPTION:Thursdays- Relationship Enhancement Series.  Dealing with difficult people in your life can be extremely stressful. Unfortunately\, few people ever learn the high-level skills needed to manage difficult relationships. This series will help you do just that.\n\nSelf-Esteem and Relationships. Few things in your life can have a greater positive impact than learning to feel good about you. How we feel about ourselves can impact our relationships with friends\, family\, and significant others.  In this workshop you will explore some of the earlier-life experiences that may have formed your current \"core beliefs\" about yourself.  We will talk about how these beliefs influence your life\, relationships\, and behaviors currently.  Lastly\, you will learn strategies for weakening some of the negative self-beliefs that hold you back in your life.\n\n\n\nEach Thursday from 4:15-5:30 p.m. you and other interested students will meet with a counselor and focus on one of the most frequent concerns of U-M students. These are the very issues that U-M students have told us are the most common issues they deal with every day. The counselor will share some helpful information\, talk about strategies and clinical resources\, and she or he will also make time for you to share a little bit about your concerns (if you wish to do so).  \n

SUMMARY:Performance:Mason Jennings
DESCRIPTION:As one grows into adulthood\, remaining steadfastly single-minded about one’s pursuits gets increasingly difficult. The musician becomes a band mate navigating the creative energies of those around them. He becomes a boyfriend\, a husband\, a businessman. She becomes a lover\, a mother\, a practitioner of her art. Life becomes multifarious\, and the pressure to not let the disparate threads of a chaotic life unravel can cause strain on any relationship. With his new album Minnesota\, Mason Jennings crafts a collage of love trying to survive the transition into being a grown-up in a complex world.\n“Love is the most important thing to me\, my relationship with my wife and kids\,” Mason says\, adding “And music has always been as important as breathing to me. I have come to realize that to have it all\, I have to take the long view when it comes to integrating all these parts of my life.” Increasingly\, a sense of place and community has become important to him as well. “The album is called Minnesota because it’s a metaphor for an ever-changing landscape. More than any place I’ve ever been\, things change so much here\, even month-to-month. But even as things change\, Minnesota is where my home is\, where my center is.” His profession often takes him away from that center. Being on the road and finding the personal space to create while at home has caused him to examine how he balances his loves. He generally writes from an intensely personal point of view\, but Minnesota represents a step toward the light after the darkness of Blood of Man\, his last album.\nA case in point is the first song on the album\, “Bitter Heart\,” which manages to be simultaneously plaintive and hopeful. The protagonist recognizes the breach of faith and the sense of estrangement in the relationship\, but sings tenderly of rapprochement. To Mason\, the central line in this song and a central point to the \n\nalbum is “Our world is filled with only what we see/Can we see love now.” Mason says\, “I have come to the understanding that the way that we feel inside is the most important thing\, and that we have a say in that.”\nMason often encounters couples after his shows who tell him his music played a major role when they were falling in love. “Raindrops On The Kitchen Floor” is an unadulterated love song\, with that love being so visceral that it can seemingly transcend the possible (“How am I gonna live forever/Promise me you will/Call it off\, the age of reason/There’s no more time to kill”). “I guess this is music to stay in love to\,” he jokes.\nBut this collage is far from monochromatic. “Clutch” looks back wistfully at a love before the demands of adulthood came knocking. At the end of the song\, Mason sings that “Maybe we could work it out\, we could live in a dream\, live in a dream\,” as though he knows it’s too late to re-enter the honeymoon phase of the relationship. The song ends in a dream-like instrumental break that leads directly into “Witches’ Dream\,” a fabulist romp that juxtaposes raw lust with fairy tale imagery. He stays in this dream state with “Rudy\,” an allegory in which a good man overcomes the forces of darkness\, while “Wake Up” addresses the need to put self-inflicted darkness behind one as well.\nMusically\, Mason paints from a more varied palette than ever. For instance\, piano is featured more prominently than any of his previous albums. “The piano seemed to fit the emotional core of the album\,” he explains. “I felt that it was important to begin and end the album with piano.” Mason played almost all of the instruments on the album\, the one exception being “Well Of Love\,” a Perez Prado-esque number that features his friends in The Living Room\, the side project of Jack Johnson drummer/percussionist Adam Topol. Friend Jason Schwartzman adds additional piano and background vocals on “Raindrops.”\nMinnesota finds Mason Jennings more at home than ever: More at home in his adopted state and more at home with the integration of the self that is required to live an artistic life while enjoying the community of his friends and loved ones.

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:Gifts of Art presents Pierced Porcelain
DESCRIPTION:In this current body of work\, Kate Tremel is interested in taking a fresh look at traditional pottery forms within a functional context. She has returned to a technique that she learned years ago as an exchange student in Peru - thinning and shaping porcelain using a wooden paddle and river stone. Tremel finds the challenge of piercing the thin walls of the clay at their most fragile state to be an exercise in understanding the fleeting tenuousness of beauty itself. Among other things\, Tremel is a lecturer at the U-M Penny W. Stamps School of Art and Design.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Gifts of Art presents Poodle Stories: Whiteware Clay
DESCRIPTION:Ann Arbor artist Lilli Blackburn creates functional and sculptural works in clay. In this body of work\, poodles are represented in various dilemmas of life. The functional white ware is lighthearted\, so simple tasks such as eating and drinking can become playful. Each piece is individually handcrafted with feedback from her standard parti (two-colored) poodle\, who loves to crack a joke. Blackburn earned a BFA from Ohio State University\, and her studio is Grins Clay.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Gifts of Art presents Stitched Impressions: Art Quilts
DESCRIPTION:Textile artist Carole Harris is a Detroit native. Her mother introduced her to needle arts at an early age. After receiving a BFA in art and interior design from Wayne State\, she began to explore fibers as an art form. Many of her art quilts have architectural themes but she is most fascinated by the interplay of hue and pattern\, often drawing inspiration from the color\, energy\, movement\, and rhythms of ethnographic rituals as well as jazz\, blues and gospel music. Harris’ goal is to make her quilts dance with the same excitement\, exuberance and joy that music gives her. Her work has been exhibited in museums and galleries nationally and internationally\, and she is much in demand as a lecturer and juror.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Gifts of Art presents The Art of Storytelling: Fabric Appliqué
DESCRIPTION:Chris Roberts-Antieau’s work is about the mysterious origin of joy and the wonder of childhood. To create her witty fabric paintings\, she first hunts for her palette of fabrics: linens\, flannels\, cottons\, calicos\, even velvet. Then she cuts her designs freehand\, using the sewing machine as a drawing tool to define the borders of her figures with a beautiful\, almost invisible satin-stitch. Roberts-Antieau then finishes her pieces with hand embroidery work\, and frames the finished art behind glass in hand-painted frames. On exhibit in permanent collections across the country\, the joy in Roberts-Antieau’s award winning work is contagious.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Ten Thousand Urban and Rural Things: BASEbeijing
DESCRIPTION: The number ten thousand is not an exact number in Chinese. Traditionally\, ten thousand was thought of as such an unimaginably large number that it became the equivalent of infinity. The concept includes everything you can point to or even name -- all of reality.\n\nIt is sometimes translated as \"myriad creatures\" or \"ten thousand beings\,\" but that makes one falsely assume that the concept includes only living creatures. The ten thousand things also includes inanimate objects (such as rocks\, buildings\, stars)\, emptiness (like outer space or vacuums)\, and abstractions (such as dreams\, thoughts\, principles\, beliefs\, language\, the Internet).\n\nThe work done at BASEbeijing since 2006 has been a quest for finding\, experiencing\, collecting and acting upon ten thousand urban and rural things. The things collected and exhibited are a combination of \"real\" things\, forgeries\, duplications and representations. The work in the exhibit involved \"acting upon\" the ten thousand things\, often taking the form of books\, designed objects and structures done while in residence at BASE. While BASE was founded on a commitment to an interest in urban space\, our attention was quickly pulled toward the rural\, and we have come to find a surprising new space that is not one or the other\, but rather a continuity that involves both simultaneously.\n\nBASEbeijing is a collaboration involving students from Taubman College\, the University of Michigan\, and various schools in both the U.S. and China.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:ADHD Awareness Week Event
DESCRIPTION:Thomas Fluent\, MD.\, is a Clinical Assistant Professor and serves as Medical Director for Ambulatory Psychiatry at the University of Michigan Hospital and Health Systems. He has evaluated and treated child\, adolescent and adult patients and families with ADHD across multiple settings for over 20 years.  He has 25 years of combined active and reserve military duty in the US Navy.\n				 \n\nDr. Fluent treated patients and families struggling with the impact of ADHD on their lives for many years prior to adopting his son in 1997. As a child psychiatrist and father to a happy little girl\, he was confident at the time that he possessed the requisite skill and understanding of the disorder to effectively help patients and parents navigate the challenges ADHD often presents on family relationships and individual social and academic development.  \nAs his son entered school and began to struggle\, Dr. Fluent quickly discovered that many of his assumptions and perceptions about the disorder\, the patients themselves\, and the parents caring for them were ill-informed and woefully lacking in appreciation of the profound impact of the disorder on the life of the child and the family. In this presentation he shares his humbling journey with his now college student son\, some lessons learned in the process and the impact this has had on his approach and care for these patients and families.\n	Come to gain and share insights about how families meet the challenges of ADHD. Questions and answers and refreshments follow the presentation.	\nFor more information\, contact Geraldine Markel\, Ph.D.\, at geri@managingyourmind.com\n\n

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Four Decades
DESCRIPTION:Four Decades\, a new exhibition featuring the work of School of Art & Design Professor Dennis Guastella and Ron Teachworth will present a retrospective selection of each artist’s work from the 1970's to the present.\n\nA public reception honoring the artists will take place in the Gallery on Sunday\, October 13\, from 3-5pm. (Free parking is available on Sundays.)\n\nBoth artists work in a variety of media\, and have an ongoing commitment to non-objective painting.The richly developed surfaces of Dennis Guastella's paintings demonstrate his passion for the physical beauty of paint explored through a variety of application methods ranging from squeeze bottles to thick layers of acrylic paint that are dried on a non-absorbent surface\, removed\, and then cut and collaged onto a final painting panel. \n\nRon Teachworth's abstractions evolved from his early landscape paintings. These interpretations developed into paintings called \"Sky Fields\" where the entire canvas became a unified surface activated by thousands of small brush strokes of color. \n\nTo learn more about the artists visit their web sites below.\n\nDennis Guastella: http://theartofdennisguastella.blogspot.com\n\nRon Teachworth: http://www.ronteachworth.com\n

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:CSAS Scholarly Lecture Series
DESCRIPTION:Jeffrey Witsoe\, Assistant Professor\, Department of Anthropology\, Union College\n\nBihar\, a north Indian state of over a hundred million people\, is India’s poorest state known for caste conflict\, political violence\, and a Maoist insurgency. At the same time\, since the early 1990s a dramatic upsurge of lower caste politics swept Bihar and other parts of north India. Drawing from ethnographic fieldwork conducted since 2002\, this talk examines why caste remains the most important political identity in Bihar and what this reveals about the dynamics of India’s democracy.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:Nam Center Colloquium Series: \"Everlasting Fraternal Friendship: North Korea and the End of Communism\"
DESCRIPTION:In May 1984\, North Korean leader Kim Il Sung took an extensive official tour of the Soviet Union and Eastern Europe\, reaffirming North Korea’s ties to the Soviet bloc and the “friendship” among socialist states. Within a few years\, the Berlin Wall had fallen and the Soviet Union had collapsed. Yet despite its economic dependence on the Eastern bloc\, North Korea survived the collapse of communist regimes in Europe and Mongolia. Information from the archives of North Korea’s former communist partners enables us to understand Pyongyang’s complex relationship to the socialist bloc\, the ambiguous end of communism in 1989 – 91\, and the reasons for North Korea’s continued existence.\n \nOur guest lecturer\, Charles Armstrong\, is the Korea Foundation Professor of Korean Studies in the Social Sciences\, Department of History at Colombia University. His new book\, “Tyranny of the Weak: North Korea and the World\, 1950-1990” (Cornell University Press)\, has just been published and his Modern East Asia volume for the Wiley-Blackwell series \"Concise History of the Modern World\" is forthcoming in 2014\, adding to his already significant body of research on Asia. His next research project is concerned with trans-Pacific Cold War culture and U.S.-East Asian relations. He is a frequent commentator in the U.S. and foreign mass media on contemporary Korean\, East Asian\, and Asian-American affairs. Professor Armstrong received his BA from Yale\, MA from the London School of Economics\, and PhD from the University of Chicago.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:Sarah Dunn
DESCRIPTION:Founded in 2000 by Sarah Dunn and Martin Felsen as a research-based architecture and urban design practice\, UrbanLab theorizes that infrastructure can be hybridized\, thereby leveraging a technically oriented project into one with cultural qualities. It presumes that possibilities for design innovation arise out of the investigation of the various constraints of combining infrastructural and ecological systems with cultural desires. Advancing ideas of infrastructural and ecological urbanism\, UrbanLab proposes a hybridization of landscape\, city\, infrastructure and ecology that attempts to address the issue of contemporary public space and urban architecture. Through different scales and kinds of urban sites\, UrbanLab’s projects develop the means or techniques of this hybridization. UrbanLab won the American Institute of Architects College of Fellows 2009 Latrobe Prize\, the History Channel’s City of the Future competition\, and several AIA Design Awards for built and unbuilt work. UrbanLab’s design work was exhibited in the 2012 Venice Architecture Biennale and has been published in AD\, Architectural Record\, Architect Magazine\, 306090\, Places\, the Architect’s Newspaper\, Dwell\, and the New York Times.\n\nSarah Dunn is an Associate Professor in the School of Architecture in the College of Architecture and the Arts at the University of Illinois at Chicago.

SUMMARY:Film Screening:CJS Film Series - Sanrizuka–Peasants of the Second Fortress
DESCRIPTION:Directed by Shinsuke Ogawa | 143min | 16mm\n-Includes a Q&A session with Toshio Iizuka\, Ogawa’s assistant director\n\nPeasants of the Second Fortress was Ogawa’s first international success\, as prints were swapped with collectives in America and Europe. The violence had escalated in Sanrizuka and farmers turned to a new tactic: they built large fortresses\, and burrowed underground – under their ground. Ogawa follows the course of the protests\, as police invade one after the other. Between the action scenes Ogawa pauses to chat with farmers\, both above and below ground. One palpably senses the strong relationship the collective had nurtured with the farmers\, and the deep respect with which Ogawa approached his subjects.

SUMMARY:Performance:Hurray for the Riff Raff Spirit Family Reunion
DESCRIPTION:Spirit Family Reunion play homegrown American music to stomp\, clap\, shake and holler with. Ever since they started singing together on the street corners\, farmers' markets\, and subway stations of New York City\, strangers and neighbors come to rejoice in the sound\, and there is no divide between performer and spectator. Paste describes their sound this way: \"Dusty acoustic guitars\, wailing fiddles and weeping accordions\, with a woozy-yet-skintight rhythm section-- and topped off with burr-edged vocals that sound like they've been soaked in a Mason jar for generations–it's the type of music that blurs the line between past and present so thoroughly\, and so deftly\, that time feels irrelevant.\"\n\nHurray for the Riff Raff is Alynda lee Segarra\, a 25 year old Puerto Rican from the Bronx. After leaving home at an early age to travel the country\, she eventually settled in New Orleans where she began to perform and record with a revolving cast of musicians. Alynda and her longtime gunslinger on fiddle\, Yosi Perlstein\, met up with a young honky-tonk band called the Tumbleweeds\, just as Alynda began to expand her musical palette to include country\, rock 'n' roll\, pop\, and soul. In the tradition of Bob Dylan with Band and Neil Young with Crazy Horse\, Alynda and Yosi recruited the Tumbleweeds to be their touring band\, drastically altering the sound of Hurray for the Riff Raff. From the swamp pop of “Little Black Star” to the classic country of “Look Out Mama\,” to the psychedelia of “Ode to John and Yoko” and even the surf rock of “Lake of Fire\,\" Hurray for the Riff Raff covers a wide array of musical ground\, with every song unified by Alynda’s soulful vocals and expert songwriting.\n\nThe Deslondes will open the show before joining Hurray for the Riff Raff on stage.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Gifts of Art presents Pierced Porcelain
DESCRIPTION:In this current body of work\, Kate Tremel is interested in taking a fresh look at traditional pottery forms within a functional context. She has returned to a technique that she learned years ago as an exchange student in Peru - thinning and shaping porcelain using a wooden paddle and river stone. Tremel finds the challenge of piercing the thin walls of the clay at their most fragile state to be an exercise in understanding the fleeting tenuousness of beauty itself. Among other things\, Tremel is a lecturer at the U-M Penny W. Stamps School of Art and Design.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Gifts of Art presents Stitched Impressions: Art Quilts
DESCRIPTION:Textile artist Carole Harris is a Detroit native. Her mother introduced her to needle arts at an early age. After receiving a BFA in art and interior design from Wayne State\, she began to explore fibers as an art form. Many of her art quilts have architectural themes but she is most fascinated by the interplay of hue and pattern\, often drawing inspiration from the color\, energy\, movement\, and rhythms of ethnographic rituals as well as jazz\, blues and gospel music. Harris’ goal is to make her quilts dance with the same excitement\, exuberance and joy that music gives her. Her work has been exhibited in museums and galleries nationally and internationally\, and she is much in demand as a lecturer and juror.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Gifts of Art presents The Art of Storytelling: Fabric Appliqué
DESCRIPTION:Chris Roberts-Antieau’s work is about the mysterious origin of joy and the wonder of childhood. To create her witty fabric paintings\, she first hunts for her palette of fabrics: linens\, flannels\, cottons\, calicos\, even velvet. Then she cuts her designs freehand\, using the sewing machine as a drawing tool to define the borders of her figures with a beautiful\, almost invisible satin-stitch. Roberts-Antieau then finishes her pieces with hand embroidery work\, and frames the finished art behind glass in hand-painted frames. On exhibit in permanent collections across the country\, the joy in Roberts-Antieau’s award winning work is contagious.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Sibande On Campus: Exhibit: The wait seems to go on forever (mural\, 2008) 
DESCRIPTION:Rising young South African artist Mary Sibande constructs elaborate visual narratives to consider race\, gender\, and class in post-colonial South Africa. Rooted in her own family’s history of three generations of women as domestic servants\, Sibande’s larger-than-life figures clothed in yards of fabric confront the viewer with the stark limits of cultural heritage as well as the possibility of transformation. Sibande’s Ann Arbor fellowship includes an original installation at the U-M Institute for the Humanities gallery\, a Penny Stamps lecture\, an open studio at the Stamps School on North Campus\, and exhibition of Sibande’s existing work at Gallery DAAS\, the U-M Museum of Art\, and the Stamps School Slusser Gallery.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Ten Thousand Urban and Rural Things: BASEbeijing
DESCRIPTION: The number ten thousand is not an exact number in Chinese. Traditionally\, ten thousand was thought of as such an unimaginably large number that it became the equivalent of infinity. The concept includes everything you can point to or even name -- all of reality.\n\nIt is sometimes translated as \"myriad creatures\" or \"ten thousand beings\,\" but that makes one falsely assume that the concept includes only living creatures. The ten thousand things also includes inanimate objects (such as rocks\, buildings\, stars)\, emptiness (like outer space or vacuums)\, and abstractions (such as dreams\, thoughts\, principles\, beliefs\, language\, the Internet).\n\nThe work done at BASEbeijing since 2006 has been a quest for finding\, experiencing\, collecting and acting upon ten thousand urban and rural things. The things collected and exhibited are a combination of \"real\" things\, forgeries\, duplications and representations. The work in the exhibit involved \"acting upon\" the ten thousand things\, often taking the form of books\, designed objects and structures done while in residence at BASE. While BASE was founded on a commitment to an interest in urban space\, our attention was quickly pulled toward the rural\, and we have come to find a surprising new space that is not one or the other\, but rather a continuity that involves both simultaneously.\n\nBASEbeijing is a collaboration involving students from Taubman College\, the University of Michigan\, and various schools in both the U.S. and China.

SUMMARY:Performance:Uncle Bonsai
DESCRIPTION:The New York Times says Seattle's Uncle Bonsai \"performs funny original songs whose exquisite musical detail and subtle needling wit attain a level of craft not often seen in pop.\" Uncle Bonsai's acoustic folk-pop songs are almost one-act plays or short stories\, resisting strict pop\, folk\, or singer-songwriter categories. Now entering its 31st year\, Uncle Bonsai continues to perform and release new material. In mid-2013 the group will release its first ever \"bedtime book for grownups\,\" The Monster in the Closet/Go To Sleep. This fully illustrated\, reversible\, hardcover book for parents\, features two popular Uncle Bonsai songs\, with artwork by members Arni Adler and Patrice O'Neill\, and includes a recording of the songs. Their most recent audio release\, \"The Grim Parade\"\, is a collection of live and studio performances of songs focused on the passing of time\, the passing of genes\, and the passing of pets–the truth of everything seemingly buried somewhere under the family tree.
