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.

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.

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.

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.

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.

Stamps School of Art & Design at the University of Michigan host an art exhibition \"Chinese Now: Contemporary Portraits\" presented by 31 faculty members from the School of Arts\, Renmin University of China. Professor TANG Keyang (Associate Professor\, School of Arts\, \nRenmin University of China) succinctly explains what this exhibition tries to accomplish. \"In this exhibition\, the people of China are brought to life in the vision of the artists. Freed from the limitations of a single concept\, style\, image\, or form\, the only thing the Chinese people represented here have in common is a disregard for the stereotypes long associated with them. The concern of this exhibition is in establishing the cultural sensibilities of contemporary China\, just as different peoples\, at different times\, have engaged art as a vital social response to the movement of history. As Professor Leo Ou-fan Lee has noted\, engagement with these cultural sensibilities allows an audience to grasp “certain core feelings\, the stuff which moves us” so inherent in the drama of life. In presenting this exhibition\, the hope is that an understanding of these core feelings will form the basis for meaningful intercultural dialogue.\" UID:15040-1193654@events.umich.edu URL:https://events.umich.edu/event/15040 CLASS:PUBLIC STATUS:CONFIRMED CATEGORIES:art,art exhibition,china,visual arts LOCATION:Work Gallery 306 South State Street CONTACT: END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20131111T170949 DTSTART;TZID=America/Detroit:20131117T120000 DTEND;TZID=America/Detroit:20131117T180000 SUMMARY:Exhibition:Infinite Mirror: Images of American Identity DESCRIPTION:Artrain\, Inc. and Arts at Michigan are pleased to present Infinite Mirror: Images of American Identity\, a rich\, reflective exhibition of works by 39 artists representing the vast cultural blend of modern American society. \n\nPublic Reception - Tuesday\, November 12\, at 5:00 p.m. followed by a\nPenny W.

He's joined on stage by his newest collaborator\, the young American cellist Natalie Haas\, who first came to his attention when she was 11 and attended one of his Valley of the Moon Scottish fiddling camps. Haas's cello has both melodic and rhythmic roles in the duo\, and according to Fraser that's nothing new in Scots music. \"People may be familiar with the gorgeous\, melodic cello sound\,\" he has said\, \"but they're surprised to learn that the cello used to comprise the rhythm section in Scottish dance bands.\" The latest release by Alasdair and Natalie\, \"Highlander's Farewell\,\" once again unleashes their dazzling teamwork\, driving\, dancing rhythms\, and shared passion for taking the infectious melodies and grooves of Scottish/Celtic music on an exciting new journey.

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.

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.

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.

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.

Stamps School of Art & Design at the University of Michigan host an art exhibition \"Chinese Now: Contemporary Portraits\" presented by 31 faculty members from the School of Arts\, Renmin University of China. Professor TANG Keyang (Associate Professor\, School of Arts\, \nRenmin University of China) succinctly explains what this exhibition tries to accomplish. \"In this exhibition\, the people of China are brought to life in the vision of the artists. Freed from the limitations of a single concept\, style\, image\, or form\, the only thing the Chinese people represented here have in common is a disregard for the stereotypes long associated with them. The concern of this exhibition is in establishing the cultural sensibilities of contemporary China\, just as different peoples\, at different times\, have engaged art as a vital social response to the movement of history. As Professor Leo Ou-fan Lee has noted\, engagement with these cultural sensibilities allows an audience to grasp “certain core feelings\, the stuff which moves us” so inherent in the drama of life. In presenting this exhibition\, the hope is that an understanding of these core feelings will form the basis for meaningful intercultural dialogue.\" UID:15040-1193655@events.umich.edu URL:https://events.umich.edu/event/15040 CLASS:PUBLIC STATUS:CONFIRMED CATEGORIES:art,art exhibition,china,visual arts LOCATION:Work Gallery 306 South State Street CONTACT: END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20131111T170949 DTSTART;TZID=America/Detroit:20131118T120000 DTEND;TZID=America/Detroit:20131118T180000 SUMMARY:Exhibition:Infinite Mirror: Images of American Identity DESCRIPTION:Artrain\, Inc. and Arts at Michigan are pleased to present Infinite Mirror: Images of American Identity\, a rich\, reflective exhibition of works by 39 artists representing the vast cultural blend of modern American society. \n\nPublic Reception - Tuesday\, November 12\, at 5:00 p.m. followed by a\nPenny W.

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.

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.

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.

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.

Stamps School of Art & Design at the University of Michigan host an art exhibition \"Chinese Now: Contemporary Portraits\" presented by 31 faculty members from the School of Arts\, Renmin University of China. Professor TANG Keyang (Associate Professor\, School of Arts\, \nRenmin University of China) succinctly explains what this exhibition tries to accomplish. \"In this exhibition\, the people of China are brought to life in the vision of the artists. Freed from the limitations of a single concept\, style\, image\, or form\, the only thing the Chinese people represented here have in common is a disregard for the stereotypes long associated with them. The concern of this exhibition is in establishing the cultural sensibilities of contemporary China\, just as different peoples\, at different times\, have engaged art as a vital social response to the movement of history. As Professor Leo Ou-fan Lee has noted\, engagement with these cultural sensibilities allows an audience to grasp “certain core feelings\, the stuff which moves us” so inherent in the drama of life. In presenting this exhibition\, the hope is that an understanding of these core feelings will form the basis for meaningful intercultural dialogue.\" UID:15040-1193656@events.umich.edu URL:https://events.umich.edu/event/15040 CLASS:PUBLIC STATUS:CONFIRMED CATEGORIES:art,art exhibition,china,visual arts LOCATION:Work Gallery 306 South State Street CONTACT: END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20131106T133035 DTSTART;TZID=America/Detroit:20131119T120000 DTEND;TZID=America/Detroit:20131119T130000 SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:Department of Biological Chemistry Seminar Series DESCRIPTION:Dr. Rick Russell of University of Texas at Austin will present the Department of Biological Chemistry Research Seminar on Tuesday\, November 19th at 12 noon in 5330 MS I.\nThe title of his talk is \"Mechanism of ATP-dependent RNA chaperone proteins.\" UID:15458-1194840@events.umich.edu URL:https://events.umich.edu/event/15458 CLASS:PUBLIC STATUS:CONFIRMED CATEGORIES:biological chemistry LOCATION:Medical Science Unit I - 5330 CONTACT: END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20131111T170949 DTSTART;TZID=America/Detroit:20131119T120000 DTEND;TZID=America/Detroit:20131119T180000 SUMMARY:Exhibition:Infinite Mirror: Images of American Identity DESCRIPTION:Artrain\, Inc. and Arts at Michigan are pleased to present Infinite Mirror: Images of American Identity\, a rich\, reflective exhibition of works by 39 artists representing the vast cultural blend of modern American society. \n\nPublic Reception - Tuesday\, November 12\, at 5:00 p.m. followed by a\nPenny W.

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.

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.

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.

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.

Stamps School of Art & Design at the University of Michigan host an art exhibition \"Chinese Now: Contemporary Portraits\" presented by 31 faculty members from the School of Arts\, Renmin University of China. Professor TANG Keyang (Associate Professor\, School of Arts\, \nRenmin University of China) succinctly explains what this exhibition tries to accomplish. \"In this exhibition\, the people of China are brought to life in the vision of the artists. Freed from the limitations of a single concept\, style\, image\, or form\, the only thing the Chinese people represented here have in common is a disregard for the stereotypes long associated with them. The concern of this exhibition is in establishing the cultural sensibilities of contemporary China\, just as different peoples\, at different times\, have engaged art as a vital social response to the movement of history. As Professor Leo Ou-fan Lee has noted\, engagement with these cultural sensibilities allows an audience to grasp “certain core feelings\, the stuff which moves us” so inherent in the drama of life. In presenting this exhibition\, the hope is that an understanding of these core feelings will form the basis for meaningful intercultural dialogue.\" UID:15040-1193657@events.umich.edu URL:https://events.umich.edu/event/15040 CLASS:PUBLIC STATUS:CONFIRMED CATEGORIES:art,art exhibition,china,visual arts LOCATION:Work Gallery 306 South State Street CONTACT: END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20131111T170949 DTSTART;TZID=America/Detroit:20131120T120000 DTEND;TZID=America/Detroit:20131120T180000 SUMMARY:Exhibition:Infinite Mirror: Images of American Identity DESCRIPTION:Artrain\, Inc. and Arts at Michigan are pleased to present Infinite Mirror: Images of American Identity\, a rich\, reflective exhibition of works by 39 artists representing the vast cultural blend of modern American society. \n\nPublic Reception - Tuesday\, November 12\, at 5:00 p.m. followed by a\nPenny W.

Comments will be focused on the missionaries of the “Asiatic Turkey Mission” (those in Western\, Central\, and Eastern Turkey) in the second half of the nineteenth century\, whose proselytizing focused on Armenians in the region. The speaker will argue that bodily conditions of targeted constituencies and their physical surroundings (rooms\, houses\, villages) were reconceived and re-conceptualized by missionaries as material representations and mirrors of religious and moral progress. This was usually done in the genre of before-and-after photographs\, one criticizing or pitying the former “wretchedness” of people\, and the other appraising how they “grew finer.” Assuming that sincere belief–or for that matter conversion–is a delicate matter to present evidence for\, these visual representations or descriptions were useful tools to convince the world of believers and benevolent contributors that these people were genuinely “civilized” into good Christians and were leading a Christian life.

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.

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.

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.

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.

Stamps School of Art & Design at the University of Michigan host an art exhibition \"Chinese Now: Contemporary Portraits\" presented by 31 faculty members from the School of Arts\, Renmin University of China. Professor TANG Keyang (Associate Professor\, School of Arts\, \nRenmin University of China) succinctly explains what this exhibition tries to accomplish. \"In this exhibition\, the people of China are brought to life in the vision of the artists. Freed from the limitations of a single concept\, style\, image\, or form\, the only thing the Chinese people represented here have in common is a disregard for the stereotypes long associated with them. The concern of this exhibition is in establishing the cultural sensibilities of contemporary China\, just as different peoples\, at different times\, have engaged art as a vital social response to the movement of history. As Professor Leo Ou-fan Lee has noted\, engagement with these cultural sensibilities allows an audience to grasp “certain core feelings\, the stuff which moves us” so inherent in the drama of life. In presenting this exhibition\, the hope is that an understanding of these core feelings will form the basis for meaningful intercultural dialogue.\" UID:15040-1193658@events.umich.edu URL:https://events.umich.edu/event/15040 CLASS:PUBLIC STATUS:CONFIRMED CATEGORIES:art,art exhibition,china,visual arts LOCATION:Work Gallery 306 South State Street CONTACT: END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20130905T085939 DTSTART;TZID=America/Detroit:20131121T120000 DTEND;TZID=America/Detroit:20131121T130000 SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:CJS Noon Lecture - America’s Role in Making Japan’s Economic Miracle: New Evidence for a Landmark Case DESCRIPTION:The postwar rise of Japan is one of the most dramatic cases of rapid economic development in modern history. While most studies attribute Japan’s growth to domestic institutions and policies\, this study argues that it depended upon unique international circumstances\; in particular\, Japan’s close security relationship with the United States. Using a recently developed statistical tool – the synthetic control method – we show that the acceleration of Japan’s growth coincided with the consolidation of the U.S.-Japan alliance. We corroborate these results with historical evidence that reveals how the alliance put Japan in a privileged economic position.\n\nAbout the Speaker:\nYusaku Horiuchi is Associate Professor in the Department of Government at Dartmouth College and holds the Mitsui Chair in the Study of Japan. He is the author of Institutions\, Incentives and Electoral Participation in Japan (Routledge 2005)\, and have published articles in leading journals\, including American Political Science Review\, American Journal of Political Science\, Journal of Politics\, World Politics\, among others.

Yet\, incidental findings are unavoidable outcomes of the process of sequencing a patient’s genome. Incidental findings can occur from both clinicians purposefully seeking out ”˜unknown information’ to gain insight into disease etiology and from ”˜unanticipated information’ uncovered as part of genome sequencing performed for another purpose. Challenges in risk communication and medical decision making will likely arise as genome sequencing is used to individually tailor clinical care. These challenges suggest specific informational needs for clinicians and patients\, as well as systematic and individual-level interventions to meet those needs.

During their short \"lifespans\,\" they must surmount multiple physical\, anatomical and immunological challenges. Central to their adaptive capacity is the enormous genetic diversity that characterizes RNA virus populations. Although genetic diversity increases the rate of adaptive evolution\, low replication fidelity can present a risk because excess mutations can lead to population extinction. We have used the poliovirus model system to study how mutational robustness might influence viral evolution and pathogenesis. Newer work that extends these findings to influenza virus will also be discussed.\n UID:15406-1194797@events.umich.edu URL:https://events.umich.edu/event/15406 CLASS:PUBLIC STATUS:CONFIRMED CATEGORIES:ecology,evolutionary biology LOCATION:Chemistry Dow Lab - 1210 CONTACT: END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20131025T112629 DTSTART;TZID=America/Detroit:20131121T160000 DTEND;TZID=America/Detroit:20131121T180000 SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:Mapping Fear: Stoking the Fires of the French and Indian War DESCRIPTION:Dr. Mary Sponberg Pedley\, Adjunct Assistant Curator of Maps\, Clements Library speaking on the French and Indian War UID:15373-1194736@events.umich.edu URL:https://events.umich.edu/event/15373 CLASS:PUBLIC STATUS:CONFIRMED CATEGORIES:history LOCATION:Hatcher Graduate Library - Gallery, Room 100 CONTACT: END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20130130T113447 DTSTART;TZID=America/Detroit:20131121T161500 DTEND;TZID=America/Detroit:20131121T170000 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 UID:12291-1192733@events.umich.edu URL:https://events.umich.edu/event/12291 CLASS:PUBLIC STATUS:CONFIRMED CATEGORIES:friendship,health and wellness,mental health,relationships,self esteem LOCATION:Michigan Union - CAPS Office 3100 CONTACT: END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20130910T125426 DTSTART;TZID=America/Detroit:20131121T171000 SUMMARY:Other:Penny Stamps Distinguished Speaker Series DESCRIPTION:Antony Gormley’s sculptures\, installations and public artworks investigate the relationship of the human body to space.

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.

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.

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.

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.

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.

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.

Stamps School of Art & Design at the University of Michigan host an art exhibition \"Chinese Now: Contemporary Portraits\" presented by 31 faculty members from the School of Arts\, Renmin University of China. Professor TANG Keyang (Associate Professor\, School of Arts\, \nRenmin University of China) succinctly explains what this exhibition tries to accomplish. \"In this exhibition\, the people of China are brought to life in the vision of the artists. Freed from the limitations of a single concept\, style\, image\, or form\, the only thing the Chinese people represented here have in common is a disregard for the stereotypes long associated with them. The concern of this exhibition is in establishing the cultural sensibilities of contemporary China\, just as different peoples\, at different times\, have engaged art as a vital social response to the movement of history. As Professor Leo Ou-fan Lee has noted\, engagement with these cultural sensibilities allows an audience to grasp “certain core feelings\, the stuff which moves us” so inherent in the drama of life. In presenting this exhibition\, the hope is that an understanding of these core feelings will form the basis for meaningful intercultural dialogue.\" UID:15040-1193659@events.umich.edu URL:https://events.umich.edu/event/15040 CLASS:PUBLIC STATUS:CONFIRMED CATEGORIES:art,art exhibition,china,visual arts LOCATION:Work Gallery 306 South State Street CONTACT: END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20131111T170949 DTSTART;TZID=America/Detroit:20131122T120000 DTEND;TZID=America/Detroit:20131122T180000 SUMMARY:Exhibition:Infinite Mirror: Images of American Identity DESCRIPTION:Artrain\, Inc. and Arts at Michigan are pleased to present Infinite Mirror: Images of American Identity\, a rich\, reflective exhibition of works by 39 artists representing the vast cultural blend of modern American society. \n\nPublic Reception - Tuesday\, November 12\, at 5:00 p.m. followed by a\nPenny W.

The core question is: Is decentralization good for the welfare state? Does it mean innovation\, competition\, and low costs\, or niggardliness\, inefficiency\, and inequity? The social sciences\, for all their collective research on both social policy and political decentralization\, do not have a good answer. Until now it has been because they lack a crucial kind of data: comparable data on the role of state and regional governments. This conference redresses the gap\, bringing together experts from federal countries around the world to shed new light on the key questions of federalism\, territorial politics and public policy.\n\nTerritory\, Austerity\, and Social Inequality is sponsored by the U-M Office of the Vice President for Research (OVPR) and Rackham School of Graduate Studies joint initiative \"Social Sciences Annual Institute\" and the Department of Health Management and Policy in the School of Public Health.

The touring exhibition\, curated by Elias Redstone and initiated in collaboration with the Architectural Association\, features 100 architecture magazines\, fanzines and journals from over twenty countries that provide an alternative to the established architectural press. Edited by architects\, artists and students\, these publications provide new platforms for commentary\, criticism and research into the spaces we inhabit and the practice of architecture. They make an important and often radical addition to architectural discourse and demonstrate a residual love for printed matter in the digital age. The exhibition will transform the gallery into a reading room. Visitors can hold and read the publications on display\, as well as see video interviews with the authors and editors of the publications.

The film masterfully combines the conventions of the science film with Griersonian documentary sequences about ghosts and gods\, along with fictional sequences featuring cameos by the likes of butoh founder Tatsumi Hijikata (his last performance) and Roman Porno star Junko Miyashita. It is a thoughtful meditation on history and the way it is never quite ”˜past’ in village Japan. If Ogawa’s first films and the Sanrizuka Series arc from the self-centered concerns of the student movement to a collective effort at understanding the communal way of life of the village\, then the “Magino Village Story” displays a similar arcing movement away from the collective toward the powerful individual expression of Ogawa Shinsuke.

The physical and emotional complications of the disease pervade the lives of Roger\, Mimi\, Tom\, and Angel. Maureen deals with her chronic infidelity through performance art\; her partner\, Joanne\, wonders if their relationship is worth the trouble.

His concerts are one-of-a-kind events in which amazing guitar chops and songwriting merge into a single unit.

He continues to stretch each show by incorporating performance art\, live audio looping\, and improvisational sketch comedy. Each tour date becomes a unique event\, a musical experience much greater than just a review of past\, present and future recorded work.

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.

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.

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.

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.

The core question is: Is decentralization good for the welfare state? Does it mean innovation\, competition\, and low costs\, or niggardliness\, inefficiency\, and inequity? The social sciences\, for all their collective research on both social policy and political decentralization\, do not have a good answer. Until now it has been because they lack a crucial kind of data: comparable data on the role of state and regional governments. This conference redresses the gap\, bringing together experts from federal countries around the world to shed new light on the key questions of federalism\, territorial politics and public policy.\n\nTerritory\, Austerity\, and Social Inequality is sponsored by the U-M Office of the Vice President for Research (OVPR) and Rackham School of Graduate Studies joint initiative \"Social Sciences Annual Institute\" and the Department of Health Management and Policy in the School of Public Health.

Stamps School of Art & Design at the University of Michigan host an art exhibition \"Chinese Now: Contemporary Portraits\" presented by 31 faculty members from the School of Arts\, Renmin University of China. Professor TANG Keyang (Associate Professor\, School of Arts\, \nRenmin University of China) succinctly explains what this exhibition tries to accomplish. \"In this exhibition\, the people of China are brought to life in the vision of the artists. Freed from the limitations of a single concept\, style\, image\, or form\, the only thing the Chinese people represented here have in common is a disregard for the stereotypes long associated with them. The concern of this exhibition is in establishing the cultural sensibilities of contemporary China\, just as different peoples\, at different times\, have engaged art as a vital social response to the movement of history. As Professor Leo Ou-fan Lee has noted\, engagement with these cultural sensibilities allows an audience to grasp “certain core feelings\, the stuff which moves us” so inherent in the drama of life. In presenting this exhibition\, the hope is that an understanding of these core feelings will form the basis for meaningful intercultural dialogue.\" UID:15040-1193660@events.umich.edu URL:https://events.umich.edu/event/15040 CLASS:PUBLIC STATUS:CONFIRMED CATEGORIES:art,art exhibition,china,visual arts LOCATION:Work Gallery 306 South State Street CONTACT: END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20131111T170949 DTSTART;TZID=America/Detroit:20131123T120000 DTEND;TZID=America/Detroit:20131123T180000 SUMMARY:Exhibition:Infinite Mirror: Images of American Identity DESCRIPTION:Artrain\, Inc. and Arts at Michigan are pleased to present Infinite Mirror: Images of American Identity\, a rich\, reflective exhibition of works by 39 artists representing the vast cultural blend of modern American society. \n\nPublic Reception - Tuesday\, November 12\, at 5:00 p.m. followed by a\nPenny W.

This Saline-raised fiddler was stirring up excitement in Michigan's Celtic music scene even during the days when he had to be dropped off to play gigs. Jeremy has challenged himself at every turn\, branching out into bluegrass\, jazz\, and\, as a member of the award-winning Turtle Island Quartet\, classical music. Now he lives\, teaches\, and works all over the country and the globe. His hand-picked (and hand-picking) Jeremy Kittel Band has musical roots that traverse the globe. With the drive of Celtic fiddling\, the spontaneity of jazz\, soul of bluegrass\, rhythms of Africa and Latin America\, layered melodies of Eastern Europe\, and the intricacies of chamber music\, the Jeremy Kittel Band has been delivering concerts on the forward edge of progressive acoustic music. \"There is a completely overwhelming amount of great art and music\, and it's so accessible that it is impossible for me to ignore\,\" Jeremy says. Stop by\, renew old acquaintances\, and check out the latest from an inspiring Washtenaw County-born musician! Jeremy recently made the cover of Strings magazine and served as composer and music director for a stage presentation by Abigail Washburn.
