Professor TANG Keyang (Associate Professor, School of Arts, \r\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 \u201ccertain core feelings, the stuff which moves us\u201d\u009d 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.\"", "occurrence_notes":"The work gallery is closed on Sunday and Monday.

Each member of the Majority boasts a strong personal music career with close ties to Chicago\u2019s Old Town School of Folk Music, where the band formed. Ann Arbor's own Orpheum Bell came together as its members were combing through country and folk rhythms, instrumental waltzes, and Gypsy melodies. The band's quiet sound is focused on vocals, accordion, guitar, and double bass, with additional texture and luster spreading from banjo, trumpet, xylophone, shepherd harp, musical saw, pedal steel, a suitcase pump organ, cittern, dobro, foot percussion, and various ukuleles and mechanical horned violins. Everything is done with care, and this is a band whose handmade album covers are worth the price of concert admission all by themselves. Turning half-forgotten musical styles into something absolutely modern, gripping, and often hypnotic, Orpheum Bell has created something new and different in Michigan music\u2013and American music.", "occurrence_notes":"", "guid":"13994-1188949@events.umich.edu", "permalink":"http:\/\/events.umich.edu\/event\/13994", "building_id":"null", "building_name":"Off Campus Location", "campus_maps_id":"1", "room":"The Ark, 316 S.

Centered in the museum\u2019s rotunda, the white plastic monolith is punctured by multiple view-holes, offering glimpses of the students\u2019 globally-oriented design and research projects, represented in miniature. The ten student projects each proposed an \u201cearth observatory\u201d\u009d at the intersection of a particular global system and the local environments, material conditions, and visual cultures that system intersects.\r\n\r\nStudio Brief:\r\nThe recent book by Paul N. Edwards, A Vast Machine: Computer Models, Climate Data, and the Politics of Global Warming, discusses the controversy around climate science over the authority of data models versus empirical observation. Requiring an extensive global infrastructure of data gathering and weather monitoring, scholarship and policy, instruments and standards, climate models synthesize data amassed at the scale of the world. They fill in gaps between measurements, account for variations in instruments, and advance comprehensive predictions based on dynamic patterns run forward. It could be argued then that the model is a more complete representation of reality than observable reality itself.\r\n\r\nCosmology and cosmography set the stage for globalization; imaginations of the world in its entirety precede direct access to the globe through sight. Well before the Apollo photographs of the \u201cwhole earth\u201d\u009d came to symbolize an emerging ecological consciousness, visual representations and conceptual models made sensible various theories about planetary mechanics and lent an aesthetic sensibility to the political, theological, and existential ideas associated with them.\r\n\r\nWith the Whole Earth generation as our precedent, the VAST MACHINES studio identifies new technologies of planetary consequence, updates the political issues at stake and defines the current sensibilities of today\u2019s \u201cWhole Earth.\u201d\u009d Student projects explicate specific infrastructures of global knowledge and exchange as the context for local acts of architecture. The exhibition, Scales of Contact, concludes the term by reformatting their studio projects as a collection of possible worlds. \r\n", "occurrence_notes":"** Please note that Sunday dates are only from 12pm-5pm.

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, \r\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 \u201ccertain core feelings, the stuff which moves us\u201d\u009d 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.\"", "occurrence_notes":"The work gallery is closed on Sunday and Monday.

Centered in the museum\u2019s rotunda, the white plastic monolith is punctured by multiple view-holes, offering glimpses of the students\u2019 globally-oriented design and research projects, represented in miniature. The ten student projects each proposed an \u201cearth observatory\u201d\u009d at the intersection of a particular global system and the local environments, material conditions, and visual cultures that system intersects.\r\n\r\nStudio Brief:\r\nThe recent book by Paul N. Edwards, A Vast Machine: Computer Models, Climate Data, and the Politics of Global Warming, discusses the controversy around climate science over the authority of data models versus empirical observation. Requiring an extensive global infrastructure of data gathering and weather monitoring, scholarship and policy, instruments and standards, climate models synthesize data amassed at the scale of the world. They fill in gaps between measurements, account for variations in instruments, and advance comprehensive predictions based on dynamic patterns run forward. It could be argued then that the model is a more complete representation of reality than observable reality itself.\r\n\r\nCosmology and cosmography set the stage for globalization; imaginations of the world in its entirety precede direct access to the globe through sight. Well before the Apollo photographs of the \u201cwhole earth\u201d\u009d came to symbolize an emerging ecological consciousness, visual representations and conceptual models made sensible various theories about planetary mechanics and lent an aesthetic sensibility to the political, theological, and existential ideas associated with them.\r\n\r\nWith the Whole Earth generation as our precedent, the VAST MACHINES studio identifies new technologies of planetary consequence, updates the political issues at stake and defines the current sensibilities of today\u2019s \u201cWhole Earth.\u201d\u009d Student projects explicate specific infrastructures of global knowledge and exchange as the context for local acts of architecture. The exhibition, Scales of Contact, concludes the term by reformatting their studio projects as a collection of possible worlds. \r\n", "occurrence_notes":"** Please note that Sunday dates are only from 12pm-5pm.

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, \r\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 \u201ccertain core feelings, the stuff which moves us\u201d\u009d 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.\"", "occurrence_notes":"The work gallery is closed on Sunday and Monday.

Centered in the museum\u2019s rotunda, the white plastic monolith is punctured by multiple view-holes, offering glimpses of the students\u2019 globally-oriented design and research projects, represented in miniature. The ten student projects each proposed an \u201cearth observatory\u201d\u009d at the intersection of a particular global system and the local environments, material conditions, and visual cultures that system intersects.\r\n\r\nStudio Brief:\r\nThe recent book by Paul N. Edwards, A Vast Machine: Computer Models, Climate Data, and the Politics of Global Warming, discusses the controversy around climate science over the authority of data models versus empirical observation. Requiring an extensive global infrastructure of data gathering and weather monitoring, scholarship and policy, instruments and standards, climate models synthesize data amassed at the scale of the world. They fill in gaps between measurements, account for variations in instruments, and advance comprehensive predictions based on dynamic patterns run forward. It could be argued then that the model is a more complete representation of reality than observable reality itself.\r\n\r\nCosmology and cosmography set the stage for globalization; imaginations of the world in its entirety precede direct access to the globe through sight. Well before the Apollo photographs of the \u201cwhole earth\u201d\u009d came to symbolize an emerging ecological consciousness, visual representations and conceptual models made sensible various theories about planetary mechanics and lent an aesthetic sensibility to the political, theological, and existential ideas associated with them.\r\n\r\nWith the Whole Earth generation as our precedent, the VAST MACHINES studio identifies new technologies of planetary consequence, updates the political issues at stake and defines the current sensibilities of today\u2019s \u201cWhole Earth.\u201d\u009d Student projects explicate specific infrastructures of global knowledge and exchange as the context for local acts of architecture. The exhibition, Scales of Contact, concludes the term by reformatting their studio projects as a collection of possible worlds. \r\n", "occurrence_notes":"** Please note that Sunday dates are only from 12pm-5pm.

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 \u201ccertain core feelings, the stuff which moves us\u201d\u009d 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.\"", "occurrence_notes":"The work gallery is closed on Sunday and Monday.

But as sociologists of science have shown, science is a social product. As such it is subject to the influence of the organizations that fund and publish research, one's professional commitments, and broader cultural ideas. Good ethics requires a more thoughtful approach to how information is produced. I will illustrate the danger of uncritical use of information by examining the ongoing controversy about birth place safety, using examples from the Netherlands and the United States. \r\n\r\nDr. De Vries is Professor, Department of Medical Education and\r\nDepartment of Obstetrics and Gynecology, University of Michigan; and Midwifery Science, Academie Verloskunde Maastricht\/Zuyd University\r\n", "occurrence_notes":"", "guid":"15726-1196177@events.umich.edu", "permalink":"http:\/\/events.umich.edu\/event\/15726", "building_id":"null", "building_name":"North Campus Research Complex", "campus_maps_id":"568", "room":"Room 266C, Building 16", "location_name":"North Campus Research Complex", "has_livestream":0, "cost":"", "tags":["bioethics","midwifery","sociology"], "website":"http:\/\/cbssm.med.umich.edu\/", "sponsors":[ { "group_name":"Center for Bioethics and Social Sciences in Medicine (CBSSM)", "group_id":"2667", "website":"http:\/\/cbssm.med.umich.edu\/" } ], "image_url":"https:\/\/events.umich.edu\/media\/attachments\/2013\/12\/event_15726_original.png", "styled_images":{ "event_thumb":"https:\/\/events.umich.edu\/media\/cache\/resolve\/event_thumb\/media\/attachments\/2013\/12\/event_15726_original.png", "event_large":"https:\/\/events.umich.edu\/media\/cache\/event_large\/media\/attachments\/2013\/12\/event_15726_original.png", "event_large_2x":"https:\/\/events.umich.edu\/media\/cache\/resolve\/event_large_2x\/media\/attachments\/2013\/12\/event_15726_original.png", "event_large_lightbox":"https:\/\/events.umich.edu\/media\/cache\/event_large_lightbox\/media\/attachments\/2013\/12\/event_15726_original.png", "group_thumb":"https:\/\/events.umich.edu\/media\/cache\/resolve\/group_thumb\/media\/attachments\/2013\/12\/event_15726_original.png", "group_thumb_square":"https:\/\/events.umich.edu\/media\/cache\/resolve\/group_thumb_square\/media\/attachments\/2013\/12\/event_15726_original.png", "group_large":"https:\/\/events.umich.edu\/media\/cache\/resolve\/group_large\/media\/attachments\/2013\/12\/event_15726_original.png", "group_large_lightbox":"https:\/\/events.umich.edu\/media\/cache\/resolve\/group_large_lightbox\/media\/attachments\/2013\/12\/event_15726_original.png", "event_large_crop":"https:\/\/events.umich.edu\/media\/cache\/resolve\/event_large_crop\/media\/attachments\/2013\/12\/event_15726_original.png", "event_list":"https:\/\/events.umich.edu\/media\/cache\/resolve\/event_list\/media\/attachments\/2013\/12\/event_15726_original.png", "event_list_2x":"https:\/\/events.umich.edu\/media\/cache\/event_list_2x\/media\/attachments\/2013\/12\/event_15726_original.png", "event_grid":"https:\/\/events.umich.edu\/media\/cache\/resolve\/event_grid\/media\/attachments\/2013\/12\/event_15726_original.png", "event_grid_2x":"https:\/\/events.umich.edu\/media\/cache\/resolve\/event_grid_2x\/media\/attachments\/2013\/12\/event_15726_original.png", "event_feature_large":"https:\/\/events.umich.edu\/media\/cache\/resolve\/event_feature_large\/media\/attachments\/2013\/12\/event_15726_original.png", "event_feature_thumb":"https:\/\/events.umich.edu\/media\/cache\/resolve\/event_feature_thumb\/media\/attachments\/2013\/12\/event_15726_original.png" }, "occurrence_count":1, "first_occurrence":1196177 } , "14647-1192918": { "datetime_modified":"20130912T155435", "datetime_start":"20131218T160000", "datetime_end":"20131218T180000", "has_end_time":1, "date_start":"2013-12-18", "date_end":"2013-12-18", "time_start":"16:00:00", "time_end":"18:00:00", "time_zone":"America\/Detroit", "event_title":"ASP Lecture", "occurrence_title":"", "combined_title":"ASP Lecture: Between Religious and Secular: Impact of the 1908 Revolution on Religious Politics in the Ottoman Empire", "event_subtitle":"Between Religious and Secular: Impact of the 1908 Revolution on Religious Politics in the Ottoman Empire", "event_type":"Lecture \/ Discussion", "event_type_id":"13", "description":"Bedross Der Matossian, assistant professor of history, University of Nebraska\u2013Lincoln.\r\n\r\nThe lecture deals with the ways in which the Young Turk Revolution of 1908 led to changes in the dynamics of power among non-Muslim religious communities of the Ottoman Empire. It will demonstrate the ways in which the revolution influenced ecclesiastic politics in Istanbul, Mount Lebanon, and Jerusalem. What was the impact of the revolution on the non-Muslim communities? How and why did these ethno- religious communities internalize the revolution? Why was the revolution more successful in creating new orders among certain ethno-religious groups? Why was the attempt unsuccessful among other groups? The cases of Istanbul (Armenians and Jews), Mount Lebanon (Maronite Church), and Jerusalem (Greeks, Armenians, and Jews) provide good examples of how the revolution shook the traditional foundations of these ecclesiastic powers. The lecture contends that post-revolutionary ethnic politics in the Ottoman Empire should not be viewed from the prism of political parties alone, but rather through ecclesiastic politics, which was a key factor in defining inter- and intra-ethnic politics. Interestingly, despite the fact that the revolution aimed at creating a modern secular Ottoman citizen whose loyalty was to the state, it nevertheless strengthened the ethno-religious political centers of the ethnic groups.", "occurrence_notes":"", "guid":"14647-1192918@events.umich.edu", "permalink":"http:\/\/events.umich.edu\/event\/14647", "building_id":"1000219", "building_name":"School of Social Work Building", "campus_maps_id":"138", "room":"1636", "location_name":"School of Social Work Building", "has_livestream":0, "cost":"", "tags":["armenia","ottoman","religion","turkey"], "website":"http:\/\/www.ii.umich.edu\/asp", "sponsors":[ { "group_name":"Center for Armenian Studies", "group_id":"3124", "website":"http:\/\/www.ii.umich.edu\/armenian" }, { "group_name":"Center for Middle Eastern and North African Studies", "group_id":"2563", "website":"http:\/\/www.ii.umich.edu\/cmenas" } ], "image_url":"", "styled_images":{ "event_thumb":"", "event_large":"", "event_large_2x":"", "event_large_lightbox":"", "group_thumb":"", "group_thumb_square":"", "group_large":"", "group_large_lightbox":"", "event_large_crop":"", "event_list":"", "event_list_2x":"", "event_grid":"", "event_grid_2x":"", "event_feature_large":"", "event_feature_thumb":"" }, "occurrence_count":1, "first_occurrence":1192918 } , "14331-1192015": { "datetime_modified":"20130821T133305", "datetime_start":"20131218T200000", "datetime_end":"", "has_end_time":0, "date_start":"2013-12-18", "date_end":"", "time_start":"20:00:00", "time_end":"", "time_zone":"America\/Detroit", "event_title":"Delbert McClinton", "occurrence_title":"", "combined_title":"Delbert McClinton", "event_subtitle":"", "event_type":"Performance", "event_type_id":"15", "description":"Delbert McClinton grew up singing and playing in the gutbucket clubs of Fort Worth, and in a sense he's never left.

Centered in the museum\u2019s rotunda, the white plastic monolith is punctured by multiple view-holes, offering glimpses of the students\u2019 globally-oriented design and research projects, represented in miniature. The ten student projects each proposed an \u201cearth observatory\u201d\u009d at the intersection of a particular global system and the local environments, material conditions, and visual cultures that system intersects.\r\n\r\nStudio Brief:\r\nThe recent book by Paul N. Edwards, A Vast Machine: Computer Models, Climate Data, and the Politics of Global Warming, discusses the controversy around climate science over the authority of data models versus empirical observation. Requiring an extensive global infrastructure of data gathering and weather monitoring, scholarship and policy, instruments and standards, climate models synthesize data amassed at the scale of the world. They fill in gaps between measurements, account for variations in instruments, and advance comprehensive predictions based on dynamic patterns run forward. It could be argued then that the model is a more complete representation of reality than observable reality itself.\r\n\r\nCosmology and cosmography set the stage for globalization; imaginations of the world in its entirety precede direct access to the globe through sight. Well before the Apollo photographs of the \u201cwhole earth\u201d\u009d came to symbolize an emerging ecological consciousness, visual representations and conceptual models made sensible various theories about planetary mechanics and lent an aesthetic sensibility to the political, theological, and existential ideas associated with them.\r\n\r\nWith the Whole Earth generation as our precedent, the VAST MACHINES studio identifies new technologies of planetary consequence, updates the political issues at stake and defines the current sensibilities of today\u2019s \u201cWhole Earth.\u201d\u009d Student projects explicate specific infrastructures of global knowledge and exchange as the context for local acts of architecture. The exhibition, Scales of Contact, concludes the term by reformatting their studio projects as a collection of possible worlds. \r\n", "occurrence_notes":"** Please note that Sunday dates are only from 12pm-5pm.

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, \r\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 \u201ccertain core feelings, the stuff which moves us\u201d\u009d 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.\"", "occurrence_notes":"The work gallery is closed on Sunday and Monday.

Centered in the museum\u2019s rotunda, the white plastic monolith is punctured by multiple view-holes, offering glimpses of the students\u2019 globally-oriented design and research projects, represented in miniature. The ten student projects each proposed an \u201cearth observatory\u201d\u009d at the intersection of a particular global system and the local environments, material conditions, and visual cultures that system intersects.\r\n\r\nStudio Brief:\r\nThe recent book by Paul N. Edwards, A Vast Machine: Computer Models, Climate Data, and the Politics of Global Warming, discusses the controversy around climate science over the authority of data models versus empirical observation. Requiring an extensive global infrastructure of data gathering and weather monitoring, scholarship and policy, instruments and standards, climate models synthesize data amassed at the scale of the world. They fill in gaps between measurements, account for variations in instruments, and advance comprehensive predictions based on dynamic patterns run forward. It could be argued then that the model is a more complete representation of reality than observable reality itself.\r\n\r\nCosmology and cosmography set the stage for globalization; imaginations of the world in its entirety precede direct access to the globe through sight. Well before the Apollo photographs of the \u201cwhole earth\u201d\u009d came to symbolize an emerging ecological consciousness, visual representations and conceptual models made sensible various theories about planetary mechanics and lent an aesthetic sensibility to the political, theological, and existential ideas associated with them.\r\n\r\nWith the Whole Earth generation as our precedent, the VAST MACHINES studio identifies new technologies of planetary consequence, updates the political issues at stake and defines the current sensibilities of today\u2019s \u201cWhole Earth.\u201d\u009d Student projects explicate specific infrastructures of global knowledge and exchange as the context for local acts of architecture. The exhibition, Scales of Contact, concludes the term by reformatting their studio projects as a collection of possible worlds. \r\n", "occurrence_notes":"** Please note that Sunday dates are only from 12pm-5pm.

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, \r\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 \u201ccertain core feelings, the stuff which moves us\u201d\u009d 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.\"", "occurrence_notes":"The work gallery is closed on Sunday and Monday.

Her process begins with soft clay slabs that are formed over molds, cut into tiles and constructed into 3D shapes. Taylor creates textures and pattern on the forms from plastic mats, stamps, rollers and found objects that are impressed and then layered.

Centered in the museum\u2019s rotunda, the white plastic monolith is punctured by multiple view-holes, offering glimpses of the students\u2019 globally-oriented design and research projects, represented in miniature. The ten student projects each proposed an \u201cearth observatory\u201d\u009d at the intersection of a particular global system and the local environments, material conditions, and visual cultures that system intersects.\r\n\r\nStudio Brief:\r\nThe recent book by Paul N. Edwards, A Vast Machine: Computer Models, Climate Data, and the Politics of Global Warming, discusses the controversy around climate science over the authority of data models versus empirical observation. Requiring an extensive global infrastructure of data gathering and weather monitoring, scholarship and policy, instruments and standards, climate models synthesize data amassed at the scale of the world. They fill in gaps between measurements, account for variations in instruments, and advance comprehensive predictions based on dynamic patterns run forward. It could be argued then that the model is a more complete representation of reality than observable reality itself.\r\n\r\nCosmology and cosmography set the stage for globalization; imaginations of the world in its entirety precede direct access to the globe through sight. Well before the Apollo photographs of the \u201cwhole earth\u201d\u009d came to symbolize an emerging ecological consciousness, visual representations and conceptual models made sensible various theories about planetary mechanics and lent an aesthetic sensibility to the political, theological, and existential ideas associated with them.\r\n\r\nWith the Whole Earth generation as our precedent, the VAST MACHINES studio identifies new technologies of planetary consequence, updates the political issues at stake and defines the current sensibilities of today\u2019s \u201cWhole Earth.\u201d\u009d Student projects explicate specific infrastructures of global knowledge and exchange as the context for local acts of architecture. The exhibition, Scales of Contact, concludes the term by reformatting their studio projects as a collection of possible worlds. \r\n", "occurrence_notes":"** Please note that Sunday dates are only from 12pm-5pm.

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 \u201ccertain core feelings, the stuff which moves us\u201d\u009d 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.\"", "occurrence_notes":"The work gallery is closed on Sunday and Monday.
