SUMMARY:Exhibition:Exhibit: Plainly Spoken
DESCRIPTION:View a range of binding ideas that came to fruition: models that replicate books from a historical period\, cut-aways that visually reveal their hidden structure\, design bindings that interpret a concept from the text\, and artists’ bindings that play with structures and materials to create something new.\n\nIn this traveling exhibit the Midwest Chapter of the Guild of Book Workers showcases archivist and book conservator Julia Miller’s text Books Will Speak Plain.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:4\,000 Years for Choice
DESCRIPTION:This exhibition combines two projects by graphic designer Heather Ault. \"4\,000 Years for Choice\" is an exhibition of posters about the age-old practice of abortion and contraception as a means to reclaim reproductive freedom as a deeply personal and life-sustaining act existing throughout all of human history. The \"Reproductive Roots\" series shines a bright light on the many voices from the abortion care and reproductive justice movements\, using vividly designed social media graphics and notecards to inspire conversations from a breadth of perspectives. \n\nHeather Ault is a visual artist\, pro-choice activist\, and independent scholar creating artwork to shift conversations about reproductive rights and justice. She uses vibrant graphics\, affirmative language\, and historical accounts to transform ugly discord into visual narratives that are beautiful and empowering.\n\nThe exhibition is presented by the Institute for Research on Women and Gender and the Women's Studies Department. It is cosponsored by the Program for Sexual Rights and Reproductive Justice\, the Department of Obstetrics and Gynecology and the Penny W. Stamps School of Art & Design. \n\n

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:4\,000 Years for Choice
DESCRIPTION:This exhibition combines two projects by graphic designer Heather Ault. \"4\,000 Years for Choice\" is an exhibition of posters about the age-old practice of abortion and contraception as a means to reclaim reproductive freedom as a deeply personal and life-sustaining act existing throughout all of human history. The \"Reproductive Roots\" series shines a bright light on the many voices from the abortion care and reproductive justice movements\, using vividly designed social media graphics and notecards to inspire conversations from a breadth of perspectives. \n\nHeather Ault is a visual artist\, pro-choice activist\, and independent scholar creating artwork to shift conversations about reproductive rights and justice. She uses vibrant graphics\, affirmative language\, and historical accounts to transform ugly discord into visual narratives that are beautiful and empowering.\n\nThe exhibition is presented by the Institute for Research on Women and Gender and the Women's Studies Department. It is cosponsored by the Program for Sexual Rights and Reproductive Justice\, the Department of Obstetrics and Gynecology and the Penny W. Stamps School of Art & Design. \n\n

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:Lecture / Discussion:Boat over Troubled Waters: The Bhagavad Gita and Indian Nationalists\, 1880-1947
DESCRIPTION:During the Indian nationalist period from 1880 until Independence\, the Bhagavad Gita assumed a new dominant role in Indian religious culture and public discourse. Leaders of the Independence movement were instrumental in identifying the Gita as the classical Indian work with the greatest relevance to contemporary needs. In this talk I briefly examine three issues in this shift: What were the reasons for the great growth in the Gita's public? How was the Gita read in Indian nationalist circles? And what were the consequences of their adaptation of the Bhagavad Gita as a key work of Indian modernity?\n\nOrganized by the Department of Asian Languages and Cultures as part of our Pre-Modern India series.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:The Litvak Jewish Music Tradition
DESCRIPTION:The subject of the lecture in question is the musical stratum of the Litvak (North-Eastern European) Ashkenazi Jewish community’s traditional culture throughout its documented history. Due to the lack of documentation referring the early periods of the Litvak community’s history\, the period under review only covers 1800’s through the present.\n\nThe main points of focus include:\n– the role of music\, music-making\, and music performers in the Litak Jewish community\; the distinctiveness of the Litvak community as compared to other major Ashkenazi Jewish communities during each given period\;\n– the role of the high-contact cultures’ impact and facts of the cultural symbiosis in music\, also compared to similar phenomena all across Eastern and Central Europe\;\n– changes in music culture at the time of socio-political transformations\;\n– the role of music ethnographic collections covering the Litvak region in representing the Jewish music culture in the present-day studies.\n\nIn the second half of the presentation\, Dmitri Slepovitch will perform excerpts from his multimedia concert Traveling the Yiddishland created on the basis of his and his research partner’s\, Nina Stepanskaya’s collection.\n

SUMMARY:Exhibition:4\,000 Years for Choice
DESCRIPTION:This exhibition combines two projects by graphic designer Heather Ault. \"4\,000 Years for Choice\" is an exhibition of posters about the age-old practice of abortion and contraception as a means to reclaim reproductive freedom as a deeply personal and life-sustaining act existing throughout all of human history. The \"Reproductive Roots\" series shines a bright light on the many voices from the abortion care and reproductive justice movements\, using vividly designed social media graphics and notecards to inspire conversations from a breadth of perspectives. \n\nHeather Ault is a visual artist\, pro-choice activist\, and independent scholar creating artwork to shift conversations about reproductive rights and justice. She uses vibrant graphics\, affirmative language\, and historical accounts to transform ugly discord into visual narratives that are beautiful and empowering.\n\nThe exhibition is presented by the Institute for Research on Women and Gender and the Women's Studies Department. It is cosponsored by the Program for Sexual Rights and Reproductive Justice\, the Department of Obstetrics and Gynecology and the Penny W. Stamps School of Art & Design. \n\n

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:Lecture / Discussion:CREES Noon Lecture
DESCRIPTION:David C. Engerman\, professor of history\, Brandeis University\n\nThe Soviet example of central economic planning came up   frequently amid discussions over India’s economic future in the last years of colonial India\, and even more so in the first decades of independent India. With the arrival of the first Soviet economic experts in India in the mid-1950s\, the Soviet example became even more important–and also the subject of increasingly intense public and private debate. Using archival and published material from India and Russia\, “Separated by a Common Language” examines the fraught relationship between Soviet and Indian experts–and what the tensions meant for both Soviet and Indian history.\n\nDavid C. Engerman is professor of history at Brandeis University\, where he has taught international history and modern American history since receiving his Ph.D. from the University of California-Berkeley in 1998. His Berkeley dissertation\, revised\, appeared as Modernization from the Other Shore: American Intellectuals and the Romance of Russian Development (Harvard\, 2003)\; it won the Stuart Bernath and Akira Iriye Prizes and was named a Choice Outstanding Academic Title. He has also published Know Your Enemy: The Rise and Fall of America’s Soviet Experts (Oxford\, 2009)\, edited a new edition of The God That Failed (Columbia\, 2003) and co-edited two sets of essays on modernization and development programs. Engerman was named a “Top Young Historian” by the History News Network and was awarded the Bernath Lectureship by the Society for Historians of American Foreign Relations\; his Bernath lecture appeared in Diplomatic History as “American Knowledge and Global Power.” Building on his earlier scholarship on American programs of development aid\, his current project is “Planning for Plenty: The Economic Cold War in India” (under contract to Harvard University Press).\n\nPart of the LSA Theme Semester “India in the World.”

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:Xiqu Productions in China since 1978
DESCRIPTION:After the Cultural Revolution ended\, Mainland China welcomed\, a new era of Reform and Openness\, generating waves of aesthetic and cultural changes. Since the 1990s\, the Chinese government has introduced many competitions and prizes to promote creative works of literature and performing arts. Reflecting broad social changes and responding to government incentives\, the Mainland Chinese theaters started producing many innovative shows. Some would critically comment on social and political practices of the past\, and some would respond to current and governmental calls for works that highlight main motives (zhu xuanlÃ¼) of the time. Since the 2000s\, when UNESCO honored kunqu and Peking opera as intangible cultural heritages\, the Chinese government and theatrical institutions have strived to train young performers and safeguard traditional repertoires. Subsequently\, a number of positive new developments have emerged.\n\nImage: \"Han Xin's Success and Failure\" performed by Shanghai Peking Opera Theatre

SUMMARY:Conference / Symposium:Depression on College Campuses Conference
DESCRIPTION:How do colleges and universities define “success” for their students? While GPA is a traditional benchmark of student success\, there are other outcomes which may be more important for long-term student wellbeing. Research shows that symptoms of depression predict retention and graduation rates\, and mentally healthy students are better learners – so it follows that supporting student mental health benefits the entire campus.\n\nJoin us for the 12th Annual Depression on College Campuses Conference to learn about new research findings and model programs which demonstrate how a focus on improving student mental health can benefit student success in all areas of the college experience – emotionally\, physically\, socially\, and academically – and allow students to achieve their full potential.\n\nThe conference will feature a choice of intensive three-hour workshops in addition to keynote presentations\, panel discussions\, and concurrent sessions. The conference will run from 12:30-6:00 on March 12\, and from 8:30-4:00 on March 13.\n\nQuestions? Please contact Trish Meyer\, Depression Center Program Director for Outreach & Education\, at meyerpa@umich.edu\, or (734) 763-7495.\n\nDepression on College Campuses is presented by the U-M Depression Center\, in partnership with schools and colleges of the University of Michigan.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:Haidostian Annual Distinguished Lecture
DESCRIPTION:Marie-Aude Baronian\, Manoogian Visiting Scholar\, U-M\; Associate Professor in Visual Culture & Film\, U of Amsterdam\n\nThis lecture will consider the relationship between images and memory in the context of diaspora. In particular\, it will address the meaning of (filmic) images for remembering the genocide and thereby consolidating the Armenian (Western) diaspora. Because there are few graphic images of this violent history and because those that do exist are not circulated in the public visual sphere\, this lecture will look at various filmic strategies that not only compensate this lack of representation\, but also more profoundly interrogate the very status of images for diasporic communities in today’s visual culture. Some contemporary filmmakers and visual artists–such as Atom Egoyan\, Gariné Torossian\, and Mekhitar Garabedian–challenge at once the aesthetic qualities of images and their crucial role in constructing memory. Baronian will reflect upon the “aesthetics of displacement” that characterize their visual enterprise as an obsessive\, repetitive yet lacunary necessity for connecting the past in a tangible here and now.\n\nMarie-Aude Baronian is the 2014 Manoogian Visiting Professor at the University of Michigan and an associate professor in film and visual culture at the University of Amsterdam. Her research focuses on various topics such as Armenian diasporic visual culture\, ethics and aesthetics\, French thought\, archive\, and memory. She has specifically worked on the representation of the Armenian genocide in the works of contemporary visual artists such as Atom Egoyan\, Gariné Torossian and Mekhitar Garabedian. Her most recent books are Mémoire et Image. Regards sur la Catastrophe arménienne (2013) and Cinéma et Mémoire. Sur Atom Egoyan (2013). She currently works on fashion and costume in philosophy and film.\n\nSponsors: ASP\, Department of Screen Arts & Cultures\, Program in International & Comparative Studies

SUMMARY:Exhibition:4\,000 Years for Choice

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:Conference / Symposium:Depression on College Campuses Conference
DESCRIPTION:How do colleges and universities define “success” for their students? While GPA is a traditional benchmark of student success\, there are other outcomes which may be more important for long-term student wellbeing. Research shows that symptoms of depression predict retention and graduation rates\, and mentally healthy students are better learners – so it follows that supporting student mental health benefits the entire campus.\n\nJoin us for the 12th Annual Depression on College Campuses Conference to learn about new research findings and model programs which demonstrate how a focus on improving student mental health can benefit student success in all areas of the college experience – emotionally\, physically\, socially\, and academically – and allow students to achieve their full potential.\n\nThe conference will feature a choice of intensive three-hour workshops in addition to keynote presentations\, panel discussions\, and concurrent sessions. The conference will run from 12:30-6:00 on March 12\, and from 8:30-4:00 on March 13.\n\nQuestions? Please contact Trish Meyer\, Depression Center Program Director for Outreach & Education\, at meyerpa@umich.edu\, or (734) 763-7495.\n\nDepression on College Campuses is presented by the U-M Depression Center\, in partnership with schools and colleges of the University of Michigan.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:CJS Noon Lecture Series: The Re-Branding of Himiko
DESCRIPTION:Abstract\n\nThis presentation explores a popular female icon\, the alleged third century ruler of Yamatai named Himiko\, focusing on her representations as shamanic priestess\, alluring ruler and dangerous witch in contemporary culture. She morphs from ancient dictator in manga to ditzy gyaru in anime. Himiko provides rich material for regional boosterism as mascot\, beauty contest theme\, and touristic motif. She appears in tarot card decks and is channeled by divination providers. I trace how the hazy yet tantalizing aspects of her story make her such an appealing and malleable icon available to serve a range of interests.\n\nSpeaker Bio\n\nLaura Miller is Ei’ichi Shibusawa-Seigo Arai Professor of Japanese Studies and Professor of Anthropology at the University of Missouri-St. Louis. She has published widely on Japanese culture and language. She teaches courses on Japan and linguistic anthropology and works to promote Japan Studies through campus and community programming.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Research Through Making
DESCRIPTION:Historically\, research and creative practice have been constructed as \"opposites.\" This is not an unusual struggle in architecture schools\, particularly in the context of a research university. This perceived tension between design and research is indicative of age-old anxieties within the architecture field to understand its nature as an \"applied art.\" Design can be a purely creative activity not unlike creative practices in music and art. In other cases\, design can be a purely problem solving activity\, not unlike research in engineering and industrial production.\n\nIn its fifth year\, University of Michigan Taubman College's Research Through Making (RTM) Program provides seed funding for faculty research\, worked on by faculty\, students and interdisciplinary experts. The exhibition presents tangible results of their collaborative work.\nThis year's projects:\n\n\"City of Nights: Detroit Illuminated\": Karl Daubmann\, Osman Kahn (UM Art and Design) and Catie Newell\n\"PneuSystems\": Kathy Velikov\, Geoffrey Thun\, and Santinder Singh Baveja (UM College of Engineering)\n\"Displace\": Wes McGee\, Catie Newell\, and Brandon Weiner (UM library)\n\"Carbon Fiber Architecture\": Glenn Wilcox and Anca Trandafirescu\n\"Knit Architectures\": Sean Ahlquist\, Wes McGee\, Anthony Waas (UM Engineering)\, and Georg Essl (UM Engineering)\n

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:Penny Stamps Distinguished Speaker Series
DESCRIPTION: Development projects the world over run into one crucial point: For a project to live on\, it needs to be organic\, owned and sustained by those it serves. In 1972\,  Sanjit “Bunker” Roy founded the Barefoot College\, in the village of Tilonia in Rajasthan\, India\, with just this mission: to provide basic services and solutions in rural communities with the objective of making them self-sufficient. These “barefoot solutions” can be broadly categorized into solar energy\, water\, education\, health care\, rural handicrafts\, people’s action\, communication\, women’s empowerment and wasteland development. The Barefoot College education program\, for instance\, teaches literacy and also skills\, encouraging learning-by-doing. (Literacy is only part of it.)  Bunker’s organization has also successfully trained grandmothers from Africa and the Himalayan region to be solar engineers so they can bring electricity to their remote villages.\n\nAs he says\, Barefoot College is \"a place of learning and unlearning: where the teacher is the learner and the learner is the teacher.\"

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:SNRE 2014 Whittemore Lecture
DESCRIPTION:William J. Johnson: Fellow of the American Society of Landscape Architects\n\nOften on my mind are Landscape Architect Professionals-to-be”¦emerging professionals gearing up for intriguing careers\, facing some of the most important sets of issues in the 21st Century – how to understand\, protect\, and restore sustaining natural systems while accommodating overlapping human development aspirations. Finding a responsible FIT between the two is a complex\, formidable and worthy challenge.\n\nLandscape Architecture is a DESIGN Profession focused on that search for fit in partnership with several sister design professions\, key science disciplines among many others. The nature of the practice is marked by interdisciplinary exchanges and collaborative teamwork. I have come to know Design as a continuum\; interconnecting strategy\, process and form towards responsible and inspirational completed works. There have been many lessons learned along the way during some disappointing shortfalls along with some remarkable successes.\n\nAccordingly\, I want to highlight some Key Design Insights and Precepts that I believe are central to a sound professional practice. In concert with my brother Carl and Clarence Roy\, these precepts became clear early in our careers - during undergraduate\, graduate work and within the first few years of practice. These precepts formed much of the basis for my 30 years of teaching at Michigan begun in 1958 as well as the joint founding of Johnson\, Johnson and Roy as a parallel professional practice in 1963. There are 7 precepts all centered on PLACE DESIGN ”¦ Design as uniquely approached by designers of the land in a breadth of scope consistent with the magnitude of the challenge. I trust their descriptions will be both interesting and helpful.\n\nReception with light refreshments to immediately follow the lecture in the Ford Commons. All are welcome.

SUMMARY:Performance:Kim Richey
DESCRIPTION:The musical journey that has led Kim Richey to her latest album\, \"Thorn in My Heart\,\" has been a dream run. Kim has released a series critically acclaimed albums and has written two number-one and four top-ten hits. She has had her songs recorded by the likes of Trisha Yearwood\, and sung on albums by Ryan Adams\, Shawn Colvin\, and Mary Chapin Carpenter. Her songs are beautifully crafted\, irresistibly melodic\, and often deep. Kim comes to Michigan with a new release\, \"Thorn in My Heart\,\" that's another masterpiece of smart\, sensual understatement. The album attracted an array of top-tier guests who have felt Richey's influence including Jason Isbell\, Wilco’s Pat Sansone\, My Morning Jacket’s Carl Broemel\, Will Kimbrough\, and Trisha Yearwood. And the dozen songs themselves show that Richey’s still dreaming up fetching melodies that arc and bend in unexpected ways\, and still discovering fresh angles from which to articulate matters of the heart.\n

SUMMARY:Exhibition:4\,000 Years for Choice
DESCRIPTION:This exhibition combines two projects by graphic designer Heather Ault. \"4\,000 Years for Choice\" is an exhibition of posters about the age-old practice of abortion and contraception as a means to reclaim reproductive freedom as a deeply personal and life-sustaining act existing throughout all of human history. The \"Reproductive Roots\" series shines a bright light on the many voices from the abortion care and reproductive justice movements\, using vividly designed social media graphics and notecards to inspire conversations from a breadth of perspectives. \n\nHeather Ault is a visual artist\, pro-choice activist\, and independent scholar creating artwork to shift conversations about reproductive rights and justice. She uses vibrant graphics\, affirmative language\, and historical accounts to transform ugly discord into visual narratives that are beautiful and empowering.\n\nThe exhibition is presented by the Institute for Research on Women and Gender and the Women's Studies Department. It is cosponsored by the Program for Sexual Rights and Reproductive Justice\, the Department of Obstetrics and Gynecology and the Penny W. Stamps School of Art & Design. \n\n

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:Lecture / Discussion:CSEAS Lecture Series. \"From Street Singer to President: Music\, Politics\, and Islam in Indonesia\"
DESCRIPTION:In 2012\, celebrated musician\, Muslim orator\, and film star Rhoma Irama announced his candidacy for president of Indonesia. Backed by the National Awakening Party (Partai Kebangkitan Bangsa\, PKB)\, and with strong support from Indonesia’s largest Muslim organization Nahdlatul Ulama (NU)\, Rhoma Irama’s bid for the presidency provides an interesting case study of politics\, Islam\, and celebrity in Indonesia.   Beloved by some and reviled by others\, Rhoma Irama has long been involved in national politics\, first as an outspoken member of the United Development Party (Partai Persatuan Pembangunan\, PPP)\, and then\, switching allegiance\, as a member of the Functional Work Group (Golongan Karya\, or Golkar) in 1988. In this presentation\, I examine the discourse surrounding Rhoma Irama’s campaign for the presidency as a way of understanding the relationship between politics and Islam in Indonesia. Rhoma Irama’s campaign speeches\, interviews\, songs\, and musical performance style raise questions about the nature of morality\, plurality\, and democracy in Indonesia.

SUMMARY:Conference / Symposium:Classicisms in the Black Atlantic
DESCRIPTION:Classicisms in the Black Atlantic is an event to bring together scholars of classics\, classical reception studies as well as cultural and intellectual historians of Africa and African diasporas to discuss transnational dialogues and debates on classical traditions (both traditional European classics and traditions founded on African antiquity). \n\nA heterogeneous world of writers\, intellectuals and political figures in Africa and in African diasporas created new classicisms in their transformation and contestation of European textual traditions founded on ancient Greece and Rome\, and in their engagement with the traditions of African antiquity.  Few would hold that there was or is a singular black Atlantic classicism – each author has her or his historical moment of engagement with “the classical.”  Nevertheless\, the historical frame of African/diasporic cultural construction has long been understood as transnational\, mobile and interconnected.  This conference seeks to explore precisely these transnational dimensions of classicism in the work of intellectuals and artists of the Black Atlantic.  We seek to bring classicists and scholars of classical reception into conversation with cultural and intellectual historians of Africa and African diasporas to trace conjunctures and disjunctures of the classicisms created in the Black Atlantic\, as well as the historical circuits and trajectories of the ideas and thinkers that created them.\n\nSchedule of Events\n\nFriday\, March 14\n\n1-2pm: Paolo Asso (university of Michigan) - The Idea of Africa in the Ancient Roman Literary Imagination\n\n2-3pm: Mira Seo (Yale/NUS) - Latino’s Library and Cervantes’ Bibliomania: Poetics of Lepanto\n\n3-3:15pm: Break\n\n3:15-4:15pm: Dan-el Padilla Peralta (Stanford) - Athens and Sparta of the New World: Classical confrontations in Santo Domingo\n\n4:15-5:15pm: Justine McConnell (Oxford) -  ”˜A high-level fuku\, the local version of House Atreus’: Junot Diaz’s Engagement with Classical Antiquity\n\n5:15-5:30pm: Break\n\n5:30-7:00pm: Keynote: Emily Greenwood (Yale) - Middle Passages: Mediating Classics in Black Atlantic Contexts\n\n7:00pm: Reception\n\nSaturday\, March 15\n\n10-11am: Margaret Williamson (Dartmouth) - What’s in a Name?

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Research Through Making
DESCRIPTION:Historically\, research and creative practice have been constructed as \"opposites.\" This is not an unusual struggle in architecture schools\, particularly in the context of a research university. This perceived tension between design and research is indicative of age-old anxieties within the architecture field to understand its nature as an \"applied art.\" Design can be a purely creative activity not unlike creative practices in music and art. In other cases\, design can be a purely problem solving activity\, not unlike research in engineering and industrial production.\n\nIn its fifth year\, University of Michigan Taubman College's Research Through Making (RTM) Program provides seed funding for faculty research\, worked on by faculty\, students and interdisciplinary experts. The exhibition presents tangible results of their collaborative work.\nThis year's projects:\n\n\"City of Nights: Detroit Illuminated\": Karl Daubmann\, Osman Kahn (UM Art and Design) and Catie Newell\n\"PneuSystems\": Kathy Velikov\, Geoffrey Thun\, and Santinder Singh Baveja (UM College of Engineering)\n\"Displace\": Wes McGee\, Catie Newell\, and Brandon Weiner (UM library)\n\"Carbon Fiber Architecture\": Glenn Wilcox and Anca Trandafirescu\n\"Knit Architectures\": Sean Ahlquist\, Wes McGee\, Anthony Waas (UM Engineering)\, and Georg Essl (UM Engineering)\n

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:Matthew Biro Lecture: \"Robert Heinecken’s Photograms\"
DESCRIPTION:Between the 1960s and the 1990s\, Robert Heinecken explored the photogram technique in a variety of different ways.  This complex body of work\, which makes use of both the documentary and the artistic sides of the cameraless photograph\, continues to have much to teach us about photographic practice today.  Indeed\, although the American artist regularly worked with a number of other techniques as well\, he is today in some ways still most strongly identified with the photogram.  My talk will explore Heinecken’s complex photogram practice\, relating it to other key works made at different times in photography’s history.

SUMMARY:Conference / Symposium:Classicisms in the Black Atlantic
DESCRIPTION:Classicisms in the Black Atlantic is an event to bring together scholars of classics\, classical reception studies as well as cultural and intellectual historians of Africa and African diasporas to discuss transnational dialogues and debates on classical traditions (both traditional European classics and traditions founded on African antiquity). \n\nA heterogeneous world of writers\, intellectuals and political figures in Africa and in African diasporas created new classicisms in their transformation and contestation of European textual traditions founded on ancient Greece and Rome\, and in their engagement with the traditions of African antiquity.  Few would hold that there was or is a singular black Atlantic classicism – each author has her or his historical moment of engagement with “the classical.”  Nevertheless\, the historical frame of African/diasporic cultural construction has long been understood as transnational\, mobile and interconnected.  This conference seeks to explore precisely these transnational dimensions of classicism in the work of intellectuals and artists of the Black Atlantic.  We seek to bring classicists and scholars of classical reception into conversation with cultural and intellectual historians of Africa and African diasporas to trace conjunctures and disjunctures of the classicisms created in the Black Atlantic\, as well as the historical circuits and trajectories of the ideas and thinkers that created them.\n\nSchedule of Events\n\nFriday\, March 14\n\n1-2pm: Paolo Asso (university of Michigan) - The Idea of Africa in the Ancient Roman Literary Imagination\n\n2-3pm: Mira Seo (Yale/NUS) - Latino’s Library and Cervantes’ Bibliomania: Poetics of Lepanto\n\n3-3:15pm: Break\n\n3:15-4:15pm: Dan-el Padilla Peralta (Stanford) - Athens and Sparta of the New World: Classical confrontations in Santo Domingo\n\n4:15-5:15pm: Justine McConnell (Oxford) -  ”˜A high-level fuku\, the local version of House Atreus’: Junot Diaz’s Engagement with Classical Antiquity\n\n5:15-5:30pm: Break\n\n5:30-7:00pm: Keynote: Emily Greenwood (Yale) - Middle Passages: Mediating Classics in Black Atlantic Contexts\n\n7:00pm: Reception\n\nSaturday\, March 15\n\n10-11am: Margaret Williamson (Dartmouth) - What’s in a Name?

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Research Through Making
DESCRIPTION:Historically\, research and creative practice have been constructed as \"opposites.\" This is not an unusual struggle in architecture schools\, particularly in the context of a research university. This perceived tension between design and research is indicative of age-old anxieties within the architecture field to understand its nature as an \"applied art.\" Design can be a purely creative activity not unlike creative practices in music and art. In other cases\, design can be a purely problem solving activity\, not unlike research in engineering and industrial production.\n\nIn its fifth year\, University of Michigan Taubman College's Research Through Making (RTM) Program provides seed funding for faculty research\, worked on by faculty\, students and interdisciplinary experts. The exhibition presents tangible results of their collaborative work.\nThis year's projects:\n\n\"City of Nights: Detroit Illuminated\": Karl Daubmann\, Osman Kahn (UM Art and Design) and Catie Newell\n\"PneuSystems\": Kathy Velikov\, Geoffrey Thun\, and Santinder Singh Baveja (UM College of Engineering)\n\"Displace\": Wes McGee\, Catie Newell\, and Brandon Weiner (UM library)\n\"Carbon Fiber Architecture\": Glenn Wilcox and Anca Trandafirescu\n\"Knit Architectures\": Sean Ahlquist\, Wes McGee\, Anthony Waas (UM Engineering)\, and Georg Essl (UM Engineering)\n

SUMMARY:Performance:Heywood Banks
DESCRIPTION:Michigan's Heywood Banks is simply one of a kind\, with a style his very own. Equal parts genius and buffoon\, this songwriter-comic-singer-poet-musician has become a cult hero and a pop icon\, with a show that appeals to college students\, stoners\, businessmen\, yuppies\, rednecks\, punks\, kids\, and/or your grandmother. Heywood intersperses his humorous observations of life with inventive\, bizarre songs\, sung and played in a variety of styles\, from folk\, to country to rock to pop\, and way beyond. His material works on several levels–it gets pretty deep into pop culture\, but you can also enjoy him just for his vocal style impersonations\, expert musicianship\, and just plain silliness. Heywood Banks has appeared on A&E's \"Evening at the Improv\,\" MTV's \"1/2 Hour Comedy Hour\,\" and \"Entertainment Tonight\,\" and he was the MC for both nights of the 2012 Ann Arbor Folk Festival. He comes to The Ark with a new music CD\, \"Dear Calamity Jane.\"\n
