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: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. Incorporating 30 years of her notes and observations\, the 500-page handbook is aimed at conservators\, collectors\, librarians\, and book lovers\, for the identification and description of book structures and styles. Bookbinders from across the country acquired the text of the book in folded sheets and\, months later\, presented them to a jury as completed books with custom bindings.

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

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. Incorporating 30 years of her notes and observations\, the 500-page handbook is aimed at conservators\, collectors\, librarians\, and book lovers\, for the identification and description of book structures and styles. Bookbinders from across the country acquired the text of the book in folded sheets and\, months later\, presented them to a jury as completed books with custom bindings.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Flip Your Field: Photographs from the Collection
DESCRIPTION:The second exhibition in UMMA's Flip Your Field series is guest curated Larry Cressman\, artist and Professor of Art at the University of Michigan. Drawing from UMMA's extensive collection of photographs\, Cressman will present two contrasting arrangements of photographic imagery. The first is a salon style display of many different images\, all focused on one distinct subject: trees. The grouping represents traditional photography\, showing the artists' use of the medium in a straightforward way. In contrast\, the second arrangement presents a collection of photographs that have been uniquely manipulated by each artist\, using aspects of the photographic process to create individual statements. With the ubiquitous cell phone camera\, photography has become integrated into our everyday lives more than ever before–and with the ease of manipulating photographic imagery through digital means\, it becomes especially interesting to view these photographs from the collection in a new light. The UMMA Flip Your Field series asks noted University of Michigan faculty members to consider artwork outside their field of specialization in order to guest curate an exhibition using works from UMMA's renowned collection. The UMMA Flip Your Field series is generously supported by the Andrew W. Mellon Foundation.

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:Carrie Newcomer
DESCRIPTION:Carrie Newcomer weaves her life and her art together\, with music\, community activism\, and personal concerns all playing a role. She's one of those people who exudes a spirituality that's all her own\, and she has to be seen in concert to be truly appreciated. Says novelist Barbara Kingsolver: \"She's a poet\, storyteller\, snake-charmer\, good neighbor\, friend and lover\, minister of the wide-eyed gospel of hope and grace.\" And you can forget all that and just luxuriate in her incredibly rich alto voice! Recently Carrie traveled to India and performed as a U.S. cultural ambassador. She has a new album on the way (you can go to carrienewcomer.com to help fund it!)\, and local religion journalist David Crumm\, writing on the ReadTheSpirit website\, recently named her to his list of \"10 Spiritual Sages to Watch.\"\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:Exhibition:Gifts of Art presents Vestiges: Oil\, Watercolor & Pastel Painting
DESCRIPTION:Growing up in Detroit\, Chicago based artist Carol Luc witnessed firsthand the slow decline of many architectural structures\, and the emptiness provoked her to reexamine how spaces narrate their story. \"I use architectural elements to examine the interplay between light and shadow\, form and structure\, and explore the relationship between material substance and nothingness.\" Luc has an MFA in painting from Northern Illinois University and an MA in painting from Wayne State University. She teaches undergraduate art courses at the American Academy of Art in Chicago\, and her work has been published extensively and is in several public collections.

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. Incorporating 30 years of her notes and observations\, the 500-page handbook is aimed at conservators\, collectors\, librarians\, and book lovers\, for the identification and description of book structures and styles. Bookbinders from across the country acquired the text of the book in folded sheets and\, months later\, presented them to a jury as completed books with custom bindings.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:Austerity: A Failed Experiment on the Health of the Population
DESCRIPTION:The austerity policies adopted in Europe aren't working. They aren't good for the economy: the economies of Greece and Spain are rapidly descending into a downward spiral. And they certainly aren’t good for health: suicides are rising across Europe\, HIV is increasing\, and malaria is re-emerging in Greece. \n\nIn this talk\, Martin McKee will discuss:\n- how the intellectual underpinnings of austerity have been demolished\,\n- epidemiological insights on its alarming health consequences and what can be done to mitigate its effects\,\n- comparisons between the U.S. and European experiences\,\n- the ideological motives that lead some politicians to support austerity and how they have used denialism to shape the public debate in their favor.\n\nMartin McKee\, MD\, DSc\, is Professor of European Public Health at the London School of Hygiene and Tropical Medicine where he co-directs of the European Centre on Health of Societies in Transition (ECOHOST)\, a WHO Collaborating Centre\, and is research director of the European Observatory on Health Systems and Policies\, a unique partnership of universities\, national and regional governments\, and international agencies. He is also president-elect of the European Public Health Association. He trained in medicine and public health and has written extensively on health and health policy\, with a particular focus on countries undergoing political and social transition.\n\nRead his 2013 profile in The Lancet: http://www.thelancet.com/journals/lancet/article/PIIS0140-6736(13)60748-5/fulltext?elsca1=ETOC-LANCET&elsca2=email&elsca3=E24A35F\n\nLight reception to follow.\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.

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. Incorporating 30 years of her notes and observations\, the 500-page handbook is aimed at conservators\, collectors\, librarians\, and book lovers\, for the identification and description of book structures and styles.

SUMMARY:Other:CCS Noon Lecture Series: \"Contracting out Violence: Patron-Client Relationship between the Government and Thugs in China\"
DESCRIPTION:\"Thuggery\, gangsterism\, and dark societies (hei shehui) are on the rise in China. They are increasingly recruited by the government as an extralegal coercive force\, carrying out violent actions on “uncooperative” citizens. Thugs are frequently hired by local governments to pressurize and bulldoze ”˜nail households’ using coercive force in order to clear land for urban development. Land-related protests have become the primary cause of social unrest. Gangsters are also often associated with the infamous city patrol (chengguan)\, whose brutal crackdown on street vendors often sparks public anger. This paper explores the context in which government-related thuggery and violence have arisen\, and its implications for governance and state legitimacy. A symbiosis is formed between the government and thugs where the weak state routinely coopts or enlists the help of thugs or “security companies” to carry out certain policies with coercive force\, and the thugs engage in such activities for a profit. Drawing from Weber’s idea that only a state has legitimate monopoly over violence\, the Chinese government has lost its monopoly over violence and its legitimacy in the eyes of the citizens. Such a symbiotic relationship is ultimately detrimental to the state\, as it breeds a vicious cycle. As legitimacy erodes\, the state needs to progressively recruit thugs to deal with rebellious citizens\, and repress popular grievances\, which will give rise to further social instability. \n\nLynette H. Ong is Associate Professor in the Department of Political Science\, and Asian Institute\, Munk School of Global Affairs\, at the University of Toronto. She is the author of Prosper or Perish: Credit and Fiscal Systems in Rural China (Cornell University Press\, 2012). Her publications have appeared in Comparative Politics\, China Quarterly\, International Political Science Review\, Foreign Affairs\, Journal of East Asian Studies\, Asian Survey and Pacific Affairs.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:Belin Lecture: The Jewish Cold War: Anxiety and Identity in the Aftermath of the Holocaust
DESCRIPTION:Although scholars of the American Jewish experience have characterized the mid-century as a “time for healing\,” a “golden age” for Jews\, and a period characterized by “the emergence of a collective self-confidence and sense of well-being\,” Susan Glenn’s lecture will show that this description distorts as much as it explains.  Her topic is the “Jewish Cold War”–a contentious Jewish war of words over questions of intra-group loyalty\, the meaning of Jewish identity in the aftermath of the holocaust\, and the prospects for Jewish group “survival” in the U.S.  This intra-Jewish war of words\, which paralleled and drew rhetorical energy from America’s Cold War era preoccupations with the evils of Communism and “totalitarianism” in the late 1940s and early 1950s\, pitted liberal Jewish intellectuals against Jewish ethnic particularists and nationalists\, and forced the liberals to defend their principles in the face of charges of disloyalty to the Jewish collectivity.

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:Sang-Yong Nam Memorial Lecture: Korean Economy at a Crossroads: Ageing\, China & North Korea
DESCRIPTION:In the last sixty years since the end of the Korean War in 1953\, South Korea has transformed itself from war-devastated ruins to a prosperous and reasonably functioning democracy. This great achievement of Korea can be attributed to several factors. In the aftermath of the war\, a market economy and a democratic political system were put in place. With respect to economic policy\, successful industrialization in the 1970s and 1980s was followed by a timely opening up of the economy around 1990. Also\, the year 1987 was the turning point in history when Korean democracy began to be established in earnest\, unlocking its potential for a civil and innovative society. These institutions\, combined with a people driven by norms that highly valued education and a strong work ethic\, led to a miraculous economic achievement. Six years’ continued prosperity and success\, however\, breeds seeds of failure. The economy is slowing down\, social cleavages are widening\, the public sector is becoming bigger but more inefficient\, and entrenched interest groups are blocking reforms in many areas. South Korea could enter a period of sustained stagnation similar to what Japan has experienced in the last two decades. Yet\, internal and external challenges facing Korea in the next fifteen years are daunting. Why fifteen years? First\, around 2027\, 20% of the Korean population is expected to be age 65 or older. Second\, Chinese economic power is likely to be on par with the U.S. around 2017. Currently Korea is highly dependent on Chinese economy but relying on the security alliance with the United States. On top of these challenges\, the future of North Korea is highly uncertain. What should South Korea do now to meet these triple challenges lying ahead in the next fifteen years?\n\nJUNG Ku-Hyun has taught at Yonsei University’s School of Business from 1978 to 2002 and served as Director of the Institute of East and West Studies and the Dean of the Graduate School of Business Administration at the same university. In 2003\, he moved to Samsung Group to serve as the President and CEO of Samsung Economic Research Institute and has contributed to the upgrading and internationalization of the Institute. Dr. Jung joined the College of Business at KAIST in 2011 as a visiting professor\, and he is also currently serving in three non-profit organizations\; President of the Seoul Forum for International Affairs\, Chairman of the Center for Free Economy and Board Chair of Gyeonggi Research Institute. His academic interests include corporate strategy\, business ecosystem\, economic institutions and globalization. Graduated from Seoul National University with B.A. and completed graduate studies at the University of Michigan with Ph.D.

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

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Gifts of Art presents Stories of Strength: Painting African American History
DESCRIPTION:Jon Onye Lockard – painter\, portraitist\, muralist\, educator and illustrator – has been an artist for over\nfifty years. Born in Detroit\, Professor Lockard currently resides in Ann Arbor and is a senior lecturer at the U-M Department of Afroamerican & African Studies and Professor Emeritus at Washtenaw Community College. The very realistic images found in Lockard's brilliant acrylics are centered on black history. Stories unfold as you view his detailed works\, and as Lockard's states\, \"everyone has a story to tell – make them hear you.\" He makes a conscious effort to paint strong\, positive images of African Americans often cloaked in African fabrics\, symbols and signs. Lockard's work is in private collections and museums throughout the country. \n

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Gifts of Art presents Vestiges: Oil\, Watercolor & Pastel Painting
DESCRIPTION:Growing up in Detroit\, Chicago based artist Carol Luc witnessed firsthand the slow decline of many architectural structures\, and the emptiness provoked her to reexamine how spaces narrate their story. \"I use architectural elements to examine the interplay between light and shadow\, form and structure\, and explore the relationship between material substance and nothingness.\" Luc has an MFA in painting from Northern Illinois University and an MA in painting from Wayne State University. She teaches undergraduate art courses at the American Academy of Art in Chicago\, and her work has been published extensively and is in several public collections.

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. Incorporating 30 years of her notes and observations\, the 500-page handbook is aimed at conservators\, collectors\, librarians\, and book lovers\, for the identification and description of book structures and styles. Bookbinders from across the country acquired the text of the book in folded sheets and\, months later\, presented them to a jury as completed books with custom bindings.

SUMMARY:Conference / Symposium:Marshall M. Weainberg Symposium 2014: Neurolaw
DESCRIPTION:How should our judgments about criminal guilt and innocence be influenced by neurological findings? How should neuroscience inform our practices of intervention\, sentencing\, and rehabilitation? How should judges and juries evaluate evidence about defendants' brain states? Who has a right to acquire and use such evidence? And who has a right for it not to be acquired? These are just a few questions in the rapidly developing field of neurolaw---the study of the interface between neuroscience and legal thought and practice. Addressing the descriptive and normative dimensions of such questions requires serious engagement with philosophy\, psychology\, and other areas in cognitive science. The 2014 Weinberg Symposium is an interdisciplinary conversation with eminent researchers in each of these fields.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:CJS Noon Lecture Series. \"The ”˜Kirishitan’ Japan and the World in Early-Modern Japanese Literature\"
DESCRIPTION:The talk analyzes the representations of Japan and the Kirishitan that circulated widely during the Edo period in three pseudohistorical narratives of the arrival and expulsion of the Christian missionaries. In these tales\, the Kirishitan is subdued not only through expulsion\, but also by his representation as an uncouth and very common villain\, in contrast to the civilized Japanese.  And just as the barbarian Other is ritually defeated and abjected in the tales through the plot and the representation of that Other\, it is also conquered through a geographic and cultural representation that places Japan at the center\, and the Kirishitan on the periphery.\n\n

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:Conversations on Europe
DESCRIPTION:Michelle Moyd\, assistant professor of history\, Indiana University\n\nThe East African campaign of World War I engaged hundreds of thousands of soldiers\, porters\, and other laborers between 1914 and 1918. Its geographical scope encompassed the lands that today comprise mainland Tanzania\, Rwanda\, Burundi\, Mozambique\, Malawi\, Zambia\, and more. This paper provides an overview of how different African actors within the East African theater experienced the war\, highlighting localized understandings of the nature of warfare\, its costs\, and in some cases\, the opportunities it made available. For example\, in what ways did the East African campaign simply appear as a mere continuation of previous wars of colonial conquest to certain residents of German East Africa? This paper also traces how some of the more “global” aspects of the war\, such as food shortages and disease\, manifested in local contexts. This paper argues that by labeling extra-European theaters of war as “sideshows\,” we miss opportunities to explore commonalities and differences in diverse human experiences of the war.  Certainly to those who lived through it\, the East African campaign was no sideshow\, but instead a profoundly disorienting and disruptive era of loss\, suffering\, socio-economic disruption\, and political change.\n\nMichelle Moyd is an Assistant Professor of History at Indiana University–Bloomington. She received her Ph.D. from Cornell University in 2008. She specializes in African history\, with a particular focus on the social and cultural history of African colonial militaries and colonial warfare. Her first book\, Violent Intermediaries: African Soldiers\, Conquest\, and Everyday Colonialism in German East Africa will appear in the New African Histories series at Ohio University Press in Summer 2014.\n\nWorld War I was a major turning point in world history that brought Europe’s long nineteenth century to a close and ushered in the conflicts of the twentieth century. Beginning in 2014\, the Weiser Center for Europe and Eurasia is sponsoring a series of programs–WWI 1914-2014: Reflecting on the 100th Anniversary of WWI–that examine the many ways that WWI changed Europe’s place in the world.\n\nSponsors: CES\, African Studies Center

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:EEB Thursday Seminar
DESCRIPTION:Variations in atmospheric carbon dioxide\, CO2\, provide unique\, large-scale constraints on the global carbon cycle.  At interannual timescales\, atmospheric CO2 variations primarily reflect variations in terrestrial ecosystem carbon fluxes and have been linked to climatic drivers such as temperature and precipitation.  In this talk\, I will discuss how measurements of the temporal evolution of CO2 in different latitude bands may be used to account for global fire emissions and to quantify the sensitivity of terrestrial ecosystem fluxes to temperature and drought stress. \n	Several recent studies have identified the temperature dependence of tropical net ecosystem exchange (NEE) as a primary driver of terrestrial ecosystem variability by analyzing a single globally averaged time series of CO2 anomalies. By simulating atmospheric CO2 from simple proxies for ecosystem processes\, we found that NEE responses to temperature\, NEE responses to drought stress\, and fire emissions all contributed significantly to CO2 variability\, suggesting that no single mechanism is the dominant driver. In fact\, the sum of drought and fire contributions to CO2 variability exceeded direct NEE responses to temperature in both the northern and southern hemispheres. Accounting for fires\, the sensitivity of tropical NEE to temperature stress decreased by 25% to 2.9  ± 0.9 Pg C y-1 K-1.  Our findings provide a more mechanistic understanding of processes that control contemporary carbon cycling and are an impetus to accurately implement these controls in Earth System Models to ensure improved prediction of long term feedbacks between climate change and the carbon cycle.

DESCRIPTION:Zareena Grewal is a historical anthropologist and a documentary filmmaker whose research focuses on race\, gender\, religion\, nationalism\, and transnationalism across a wide spectrum of American Muslim communities. Her first book\, Islam is a Foreign Country: American Muslims and the Global Crisis of Authority (NYU 2013)\, is an ethnography of transnational Muslim networks that link US mosques to Islamic movements in the post-colonial Middle East through debates about the reform of Islam. Her first film\, By the Dawn’s Early Light: Chris Jackson’s Journey to Islam (Cinema Guild 2004)\, examines the racialization of Islam and the scrutiny of American Muslims’ patriotism long before September 11\,\, 2001. Her new project combines ethnographic and cultural studies analyses with historical research on the range of meanings the Quran has had for Americans in relation to national debates about religious tolerance. She was a Fulbright Fellow in Egypt (2002-3) and she received the Fulbright's prestigious Islamic Civilization Grant. Zareena received her doctorate from the interdisciplinary Program in Anthropology and History at the University of Michigan.

SUMMARY:Other:Conflict Management- A Relationship Management 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\nConflict Management.  Learning to effectively manage disagreements with others can help you improve your relationships\, be more successful\, and feel better about yourself. In this workshop you will learn strategies for successfully managing conflict with others in both your personal and professional/academic life.\n\nDates: 9/12\, 10/10 11/7\, 12/12\n\nEach Thursday from 4:15 – 5:30 p.m. you and other interested students will meet with a counselor and focus on one of the most frequent concerns of U-M students. These are the very issues that U-M students have told us are the most common issues they deal with every day. The counselor will share some helpful information\, talk about strategies and clinical resources\, and she or he will also make time for you to share a little bit about your concerns (if you wish to do so).  \n

SUMMARY:Other:Penny Stamps Distinguished Speaker Series
DESCRIPTION:Artist\, policy advocate\, and researcher Laurie Jo Reynolds has worked for over two decades to address the negative representations of people in prison. Her “Legislative Art” participates and intervenes in government systems\, with the goal of concrete political change. For the past eight years Reynolds has focused on Tamms Correctional Center\, the notorious supermax prison in southern Illinois designed for sensory deprivation. As a 2010 Soros Justice Fellow\, Reynolds researched and advocated for best practices to stop sexual abuse and reduce crime recidivism. She produced cultural events and conceptual art objects as part of an education program to open dialogue about the unintended consequences of the public sex-offender registry and residency restrictions. Reynolds was awarded a 2013 Creative Capital grant to produce the Honey Bun Comedy Hour\, a video and performance variety show depicting the horror\, boredom\, and small mercies of prison life.

SUMMARY:Performance:The Blind Boys of Alabama
DESCRIPTION:The Blind Boys of Alabama are an American institution\, with a 60-year career that had its beginnings early in the era of modern African-American gospel music. Their sinewy harmonies and fiery vocal effects are instantly identifiable\, and the sheer spiritual power of their music brings audiences to their feet and touches the soul. And when they really get down to the business of taking the audience to church\, well\, hold on to your hats. The Blind Boys have a new album\, \"I'll Find a Way\,\" featuring such classics-to-be as \"There Will Never Been Any Peace (Till God Is Seated at the Conference Table).\" The album is a bit more hardcore than the Blind Boys' other recent outings\, drawing on the classic Sam Cooke/Soul Stirrers gospel style. Everybody should experience the Blind Boys once\, but they're no relic: since 2000\, they’ve won five Grammys and four Gospel Music Awards.\n
