Come and see crystals from the Museum of Natural History\, books from the Library's collection\, and displays of the equipment used at the X-Ray Crystallography Lab.\n\nUNESCO chose 2014 as the International year of Crystallography because it commemorates two important anniversaries in the study of matter: the centennial of X-ray diffraction\, and the 400th anniversary of Kepler’s observation in 1611 of the symmetrical form of ice crystals. Both breakthroughs led to subsequent studies in the role of symmetry in matter and the nature of crystalline material. U-M continues this investigation today.\n UID:17714-1203581@events.umich.edu URL:https://events.umich.edu/event/17714 CLASS:PUBLIC STATUS:CONFIRMED CATEGORIES:library,museum of natural history LOCATION:Shapiro Library - Third Floor Hallway CONTACT: END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20140921T180032 DTSTART;TZID=America/Detroit:20140921T000000 DTEND;TZID=America/Detroit:20140921T235959 SUMMARY:Other:Purdue Tournament DESCRIPTION:First Big Ten tourney of the year!  UID:18700-1220120@events.umich.edu URL:https://events.umich.edu/event/18700 CLASS:PUBLIC STATUS:CONFIRMED CATEGORIES: LOCATION:Purdue University CONTACT: END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20141004T120027 DTSTART;TZID=America/Detroit:20140921T000000 DTEND;TZID=America/Detroit:20140921T235959 SUMMARY:Sporting Event:Scrimmage vs Victory Honda Senior B DESCRIPTION:LET'S GO BLUE!

Conceived in the 1950s by architects Le Corbusier and Pierre Jeanneret\, Chandigarh’s controversial modernist architecture includes original pieces of furniture created specifically for the building’s interiors. Recently these pieces have appeared at auction houses around the world\, commanding record prices. Starting with Chandigarh furniture in the present\, the film begins in New York apartments\, London townhouses\, Belgian villas\, and Paris salons of avid collectors. From there\, it moves backward to the furniture’s sale at auction\, preview exhibitions\, and photography for auction catalogues\, to restoration\, cargo shipping containers\, and Indian ports—ending finally in Chandigarh\, a city in a state of entropy. \n\n On October 19\, 2013\, Siegel auctioned Provenance at Christie’s in London\, turning the film into another object at auction\, inseparable from the market it depicts. Lot 248\, a second film\, captures the auction of Provenance\, becoming a mirror of the first\, repeating and completing the circuit of design and art that define speculative markets.\n\nAmie Siegel was born in 1974 in Chicago. Her work has been exhibited internationally at MoMA/PS1\, Walker Art Center\, Hayward Gallery\, Whitney Museum of American Art\, KW Berlin\, ICA Boston\, and the Kunstmuseum Stuttgart. Screenings include Cannes Film Festival\, Berlin Film Festival\, New York Film Festival\, The Museum of Modern Art\, The National Gallery of Art\, and the Harvard Film Archive\, among many other museums and cinematheques. She has been a fellow of the DAAD Berliner Künstlerprogramm\, the Guggenheim Foundation\, and The Film Study Center at Harvard University\, as well as a recipient of the ICA Bostonʼs Foster Prize and\, most recently\, a Sundance Institute Film Fund award for Provenance.\n\nLead support for this exhibition is provided by the Herbert W. and Susan L. Johe Endowment. Additional generous support is provided by the University of Michigan Penny W. Stamps School of Art & Design\, Taubman College of Architecture + Urban Planning\, and Institute for the Humanities.

The sixteen photographs included in this exhibition speak to an especially charged collaboration between photographer and model in that they are all portraits of artists.\n\nWhen a photographer is faced with a subject who is so thoroughly invested in artistic representation\, how might this impact his or her own photographic aesthetic? In this suite of remarkable photographs\, we witness different manifestations of this phenomenon at work. For example\, we see results ranging from the surreal to the seemingly straightforward through encounters between Salvador Dalí and Philippe Halsman\; Frida Kahlo and Manuel Álvarez Bravo\; and Georgia O’Keeffe and Ansel Adams. In other cases the photographer intentionally frames the photographic subject alongside the artist’s own work of art so that they become compelling participants in their own painted or sculptural compositions.\n\nThis exhibition invites viewers to consider how the difficult task of representing another artist is productively accomplished through the collaborative aesthetic resonances discernable between model and photographer in these portraits. \n\nLead support for this exhibition is provided by the University of Michigan Health System.

Paramodel works in a variety of media\, including painting\, sculpture\, video\, and photography\, often combining pieces in site-specific installations that seek to construct a parallel world of “play” intersecting with the real world. For UMMA’s exhibition\, Paramodel will create a new installation derived from their most famous series\, paramodelic-graffiti. In a mesmerizing network of blue-colored model railroads that fill flat surfaces in and beyond the gallery\, the installation will transgress the boundaries of space\, media\, and art production\, collapsing the distinction between gallery and street\; between two-dimensional drawing and three-dimensional object\; and between creator and spectator. The exhibition will create an experience for visitors full of what the team calls “paradoxes.”\n\nThough they’ve shown extensively in Asia and Europe over the past ten years\, this marks Paramodel’s first solo exhibition of work in the United States.\n\nLead support for this exhibition is provided by the University of Michigan Office of the President\, Office of the Provost\, and Center for Japanese Studies\, the Japan Foundation\, and the E. Rhodes and Leona B. Carpenter Foundation. Additional generous support is provided by the University of Michigan Credit Union and the Herbert W. and Susan L. Johe Endowment.

The series will culminate on October 5\, 2014 with a symposium that will explore the importance of this circle of Ann Arbor-based architects\, situating their regional body of domestic work into the larger context of modern architecture in the U.S. that developed on the East Coast and West Coast from the 1930s–1980s. Symposium participants include UMMA Director Joseph Rosa\, Head of the University Archives Program at the Bentley Historical Library Nancy Bartlett\, Bentley Associate Archivist and Head of Digital Curation Services Nancy Deromedi\, and Taubman College of Architecture and Urban Planning faculty Claire Zimmerman\, Greg Saldaña\, Craig Borum\, and Robert Beckley.\n\nThis exhibition is part of the U-M Collections Collaborations series\, which showcases the renowned and diverse collections of the University of Michigan.

Laith has released three albums\; his latest\, \"Real\,\" was recorded with an all-star cast of L.A. session legends including Tom Scott on sax\, Jim Keltner on drums\, and Leland Sklar on bass. The soulful new album harkens back to the great musical traditions of New Orleans and Chicago with a splash of blues\, country\, gospel\, and roots rock\, and it's arguably Laith's best work to date.

Both breakthroughs led to subsequent studies in the role of symmetry in matter and the nature of crystalline material.

Conceived in the 1950s by architects Le Corbusier and Pierre Jeanneret\, Chandigarh’s controversial modernist architecture includes original pieces of furniture created specifically for the building’s interiors. Recently these pieces have appeared at auction houses around the world\, commanding record prices. Starting with Chandigarh furniture in the present\, the film begins in New York apartments\, London townhouses\, Belgian villas\, and Paris salons of avid collectors. From there\, it moves backward to the furniture’s sale at auction\, preview exhibitions\, and photography for auction catalogues\, to restoration\, cargo shipping containers\, and Indian ports—ending finally in Chandigarh\, a city in a state of entropy. \n\n On October 19\, 2013\, Siegel auctioned Provenance at Christie’s in London\, turning the film into another object at auction\, inseparable from the market it depicts. Lot 248\, a second film\, captures the auction of Provenance\, becoming a mirror of the first\, repeating and completing the circuit of design and art that define speculative markets.\n\nAmie Siegel was born in 1974 in Chicago. Her work has been exhibited internationally at MoMA/PS1\, Walker Art Center\, Hayward Gallery\, Whitney Museum of American Art\, KW Berlin\, ICA Boston\, and the Kunstmuseum Stuttgart. Screenings include Cannes Film Festival\, Berlin Film Festival\, New York Film Festival\, The Museum of Modern Art\, The National Gallery of Art\, and the Harvard Film Archive\, among many other museums and cinematheques. She has been a fellow of the DAAD Berliner Künstlerprogramm\, the Guggenheim Foundation\, and The Film Study Center at Harvard University\, as well as a recipient of the ICA Bostonʼs Foster Prize and\, most recently\, a Sundance Institute Film Fund award for Provenance.\n\nLead support for this exhibition is provided by the Herbert W. and Susan L. Johe Endowment. Additional generous support is provided by the University of Michigan Penny W.

The sixteen photographs included in this exhibition speak to an especially charged collaboration between photographer and model in that they are all portraits of artists.\n\nWhen a photographer is faced with a subject who is so thoroughly invested in artistic representation\, how might this impact his or her own photographic aesthetic? In this suite of remarkable photographs\, we witness different manifestations of this phenomenon at work. For example\, we see results ranging from the surreal to the seemingly straightforward through encounters between Salvador Dalí and Philippe Halsman\; Frida Kahlo and Manuel Álvarez Bravo\; and Georgia O’Keeffe and Ansel Adams. In other cases the photographer intentionally frames the photographic subject alongside the artist’s own work of art so that they become compelling participants in their own painted or sculptural compositions.\n\nThis exhibition invites viewers to consider how the difficult task of representing another artist is productively accomplished through the collaborative aesthetic resonances discernable between model and photographer in these portraits. \n\nLead support for this exhibition is provided by the University of Michigan Health System.

Paramodel works in a variety of media\, including painting\, sculpture\, video\, and photography\, often combining pieces in site-specific installations that seek to construct a parallel world of “play” intersecting with the real world. For UMMA’s exhibition\, Paramodel will create a new installation derived from their most famous series\, paramodelic-graffiti. In a mesmerizing network of blue-colored model railroads that fill flat surfaces in and beyond the gallery\, the installation will transgress the boundaries of space\, media\, and art production\, collapsing the distinction between gallery and street\; between two-dimensional drawing and three-dimensional object\; and between creator and spectator. The exhibition will create an experience for visitors full of what the team calls “paradoxes.”\n\nThough they’ve shown extensively in Asia and Europe over the past ten years\, this marks Paramodel’s first solo exhibition of work in the United States.\n\nLead support for this exhibition is provided by the University of Michigan Office of the President\, Office of the Provost\, and Center for Japanese Studies\, the Japan Foundation\, and the E.

Responses ranged from near-silence from the target public to discomfiting anger from a Palestinian hip hop group with a feminist song on the one hand to touching personal affirmations from marginalized counter-publics of Muslim women in the West on the other. Marilyn Strathern long ago pointed to the awkwardness of the relationship between anthropology and feminism. This awkwardness may have intensified as feminism has gone transnational and aligned itself with human rights and humanitarianism.”\n\nLila Abu-Lughod\, Joseph L.

Conceived in the 1950s by architects Le Corbusier and Pierre Jeanneret\, Chandigarh’s controversial modernist architecture includes original pieces of furniture created specifically for the building’s interiors. Recently these pieces have appeared at auction houses around the world\, commanding record prices. Starting with Chandigarh furniture in the present\, the film begins in New York apartments\, London townhouses\, Belgian villas\, and Paris salons of avid collectors. From there\, it moves backward to the furniture’s sale at auction\, preview exhibitions\, and photography for auction catalogues\, to restoration\, cargo shipping containers\, and Indian ports—ending finally in Chandigarh\, a city in a state of entropy. \n\n On October 19\, 2013\, Siegel auctioned Provenance at Christie’s in London\, turning the film into another object at auction\, inseparable from the market it depicts. Lot 248\, a second film\, captures the auction of Provenance\, becoming a mirror of the first\, repeating and completing the circuit of design and art that define speculative markets.\n\nAmie Siegel was born in 1974 in Chicago. Her work has been exhibited internationally at MoMA/PS1\, Walker Art Center\, Hayward Gallery\, Whitney Museum of American Art\, KW Berlin\, ICA Boston\, and the Kunstmuseum Stuttgart. Screenings include Cannes Film Festival\, Berlin Film Festival\, New York Film Festival\, The Museum of Modern Art\, The National Gallery of Art\, and the Harvard Film Archive\, among many other museums and cinematheques. She has been a fellow of the DAAD Berliner Künstlerprogramm\, the Guggenheim Foundation\, and The Film Study Center at Harvard University\, as well as a recipient of the ICA Bostonʼs Foster Prize and\, most recently\, a Sundance Institute Film Fund award for Provenance.\n\nLead support for this exhibition is provided by the Herbert W. and Susan L. Johe Endowment. Additional generous support is provided by the University of Michigan Penny W.

The sixteen photographs included in this exhibition speak to an especially charged collaboration between photographer and model in that they are all portraits of artists.\n\nWhen a photographer is faced with a subject who is so thoroughly invested in artistic representation\, how might this impact his or her own photographic aesthetic? In this suite of remarkable photographs\, we witness different manifestations of this phenomenon at work. For example\, we see results ranging from the surreal to the seemingly straightforward through encounters between Salvador Dalí and Philippe Halsman\; Frida Kahlo and Manuel Álvarez Bravo\; and Georgia O’Keeffe and Ansel Adams. In other cases the photographer intentionally frames the photographic subject alongside the artist’s own work of art so that they become compelling participants in their own painted or sculptural compositions.\n\nThis exhibition invites viewers to consider how the difficult task of representing another artist is productively accomplished through the collaborative aesthetic resonances discernable between model and photographer in these portraits. \n\nLead support for this exhibition is provided by the University of Michigan Health System.

Paramodel works in a variety of media\, including painting\, sculpture\, video\, and photography\, often combining pieces in site-specific installations that seek to construct a parallel world of “play” intersecting with the real world. For UMMA’s exhibition\, Paramodel will create a new installation derived from their most famous series\, paramodelic-graffiti. In a mesmerizing network of blue-colored model railroads that fill flat surfaces in and beyond the gallery\, the installation will transgress the boundaries of space\, media\, and art production\, collapsing the distinction between gallery and street\; between two-dimensional drawing and three-dimensional object\; and between creator and spectator. The exhibition will create an experience for visitors full of what the team calls “paradoxes.”\n\nThough they’ve shown extensively in Asia and Europe over the past ten years\, this marks Paramodel’s first solo exhibition of work in the United States.\n\nLead support for this exhibition is provided by the University of Michigan Office of the President\, Office of the Provost\, and Center for Japanese Studies\, the Japan Foundation\, and the E.

A representative and entertaining one is\, for example\, the kunqu (classical Chinese opera) play entitled \"Captured Alive\,\" a drama that tells the ghost of Yan Poxi strangling Zhang Sanlang\, her human lover\, and taking him to hell to resume their illicit love affair. Critical analyses of the play underscore that kunqu performances multivalently portray Chinese men's desire for and anxiety about musically talented and sexually appealing women.\n\nJoseph Lam is Director of the Confucius Institute at the University of Michigan and Professor of Musicology\, the School of Music\, Theatre and Dance\, the University of Michigan. A musicologist and sinologist\, Lam specializes in the musics and cultures of Southern Song (1127-1275)\, Ming (1368-1644)\, and modern China (1900 to present). Lam regularly lectures in the U.S.\, Mainland China\, and Asia.

Born to a religiously observant family in a shtetl\, Isaiah Mendeleevich Pul’ner would go on to become a prominent ethnographer of Soviet Jewish populations\, and director of the Jewish Section of the State Museum of Ethnography in Leningrad from 1937 to 1942. As a museum curator\, he promoted a Marxist-Leninist vision of Jews as purely secular members of a socialist “family of nations.” Unpublished archival documents\, however\, suggest that Pul’ner retained some connections with the traditional Judaism of his youth. These materials indicate that he was strongly influenced by the pre-revolutionary ethnographer Sh. An-sky\, and was deeply concerned with salvaging artifacts of traditional Judaism. Pul'ner's ambitious research plans for the Jewish Section were cut short by the outbreak of World War II and his untimely death during the Siege of Leningrad. By tracing Pul'ner's career in its totality\, this presentation considers the complexities that drove Pul’ner’s ethnographic agenda\, asking if his primary devotion was to the state\, or to the folk.

The source of that earthquake was the electoral success of so-called “anti-EU parties” in general\, and far Right parties in particular. But while it is true that unprecedented results were obtained by some far Right parties\, much of what happened was either not new or not noticed. This lecture will look at the results of the far Right in a broad historic and regional perspective\, arguing that the shocks were largely local and predictable\, and will have relatively limited national and supranational consequences\, at least in the short and medium term.\n\nCas Mudde is an associate professor of international affairs at the University of Georgia. He earned his M.A. and Ph.D. in political science at Leiden University in the Netherlands. Professor Mudde is an expert on European politics and the foremost scholar on the far right in western democracies. He has published widely on topics such as (un)civil society\, democratization\, Euroskepticism\, extremism and democracy\, political parties\, and populism. His most recent book publications include the four-volume reader Political Extremism (SAGE\, 2013) and the co-edited Populism in Europe and the Americas: Threat or Corrective for Democracy (Cambridge University Press\, 2012).

Kennedy DESCRIPTION:On November 22\, 1963\, President John F. Kennedy was murdered in front of hundreds of onlookers. Everything was over in mere seconds\, but the events of that day have been the subject of heated debate for five decades. The presidential commission\, established by President Lyndon B. Johnson was headed by then-Chief Justice Earl Warren. Tasked with determining the truth\, the Warren Commission investigated the Kennedy assassination and published its report the following year. September 2014 marks the 50th anniversary of the release of the Warren Commission findings. \n\nNow\, in this eye-opening new account of the Commission and its findings\, Howard P. Willens sets out to prove that Warren's advice was prescient. Willens\, the only living member of the three-person supervisory staff of the Warren Commission\, supervised the investigation from the very beginning and has waited until now to silence the critics and well-intentioned armchair detectives. Drawn from Willens' own journals and extensive notes on the investigation--which have never before been published--History Will Prove Us Right tells the true and complete story\, perhaps for the first time\, of every aspect of the investigation into one of the century's most harrowing events from a uniquely first-person perspective.\n\nOpen Seating\; Free Admission\; Free Parking\; Book sales/signing and reception follow program.

The lecture will be held in the Garden Level Auditorium within the Rachel Upjohn Building at 4250 Plymouth Road in Ann Arbor. \n\nAbout The Jack and Nancy Westman Lectureship in Family and Community Psychiatry:\n \nJack C. Westman\, M.D. is a Professor Emeritus of Psychiatry at the University of Wisconsin School of Medicine and Public Health and president of Wisconsin Cares\, Inc.\, an organization that promotes public policies to enhance the well-being of childrearing families. Dr. Westman received a BS\, MD\, and MS from the University of Michigan and was an Associate Professor of Psychiatry at the University of Michigan Medical School before joining the University of Wisconsin in 1965. \n\nNancy K. Westman received a B.A. from the University of Michigan and devoted her volunteer life to supporting the well-being of young persons and their families. She was co-chair of Project Understanding\, a Mississippi-Wisconsin program that began in 1968\; treasurer of Canyon Scholars\, a Mexican-U.S. scholarship program for Tarahumara Indians that began in 1999\; and treasurer of the Bethel Parish Shop.\n\nThe Westman’s endowment gift to the University of Michigan Medical School was inspired by their lifelong commitment to child advocacy\, family well-being\, children’s and parents’ rights\, and public policy. This annual lectureship was established to promote interest in the actual life circumstances of young people – the families\, neighborhoods\, and communities in which they live.\n\nAbout Dr. Dishion’s Lecture:\n“Translational Research on Family Interventions for Child and Adolescent Problem Behavior: From Developmental Research to Community Change”\n \nThomas Dishion\, Ph.D.\nThis lecture will provide an overview of a 30 year program of research that began with longitudinal research on the development of antisocial behavior in children and adolescence\, and has progressed to the prevention and treatment of various forms of problem behavior in childhood and adolescence. The model building approach to translational research will be highlighted as it applies to explaining individual difference in child and adolescent problem behavior\, and most recently\, as a guide to implementing interventions found to effectively prevent and treat antisocial behavior. Future directions in translation research are suggested\, including the integration of biology\, the brain and environmental factors in affecting public health benefits to children and families.\n\nDr. Dishion’s expertise is in translational research on relationship dynamics associated with child\, adolescent and young adult mental health and competence. His research focuses on peer family and romantic relationship dynamics underlying the development of psychopathology and competence. His work uses various methods including longitudinal studies\, observational and social neuroscience techniques such as high-density array EEG. Dr. Dishion’s intervention research involves the design and testing of empirically supported interventions such as the Family Check-up\, and identifying intervention strategies that are potentially harmful to youth development.\n\nB.A. in Philosophy\, University of California\, Santa Barbara\, 1977\nM.A. in Behavior Science\, University of Oregon\, 1980\nPh.D. in Child Clinical Psychology\, University of Oregon\, 1988\nResearch scientist at the Oregon Social Learning Center\, 1988 to 2000\nProfessor of Clinical Psychology\, University of Oregon\, 1997 to 2011\nProfessor of School Psychology\, University of Oregon\, 2008-2011\nFounding Director of the Child and Family Center\, 2000-2011\nProfessor of Psychology\, Arizona State University\, 2011-present UID:18957-1217861@events.umich.edu URL:https://events.umich.edu/event/18957 CLASS:PUBLIC STATUS:CONFIRMED CATEGORIES:Lecture LOCATION:Health Service - Rachel Upjohn Building CONTACT: END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20140902T122941 DTSTART;TZID=America/Detroit:20140924T110000 DTEND;TZID=America/Detroit:20140924T170000 SUMMARY:Exhibition:Exhibition: Amie Siegel: Provenance DESCRIPTION:Amie Siegel’s Provenance traces in reverse the global trade in furniture from the Indian city of Chandigarh. Conceived in the 1950s by architects Le Corbusier and Pierre Jeanneret\, Chandigarh’s controversial modernist architecture includes original pieces of furniture created specifically for the building’s interiors. Recently these pieces have appeared at auction houses around the world\, commanding record prices. Starting with Chandigarh furniture in the present\, the film begins in New York apartments\, London townhouses\, Belgian villas\, and Paris salons of avid collectors. From there\, it moves backward to the furniture’s sale at auction\, preview exhibitions\, and photography for auction catalogues\, to restoration\, cargo shipping containers\, and Indian ports—ending finally in Chandigarh\, a city in a state of entropy. \n\n On October 19\, 2013\, Siegel auctioned Provenance at Christie’s in London\, turning the film into another object at auction\, inseparable from the market it depicts. Lot 248\, a second film\, captures the auction of Provenance\, becoming a mirror of the first\, repeating and completing the circuit of design and art that define speculative markets.\n\nAmie Siegel was born in 1974 in Chicago. Her work has been exhibited internationally at MoMA/PS1\, Walker Art Center\, Hayward Gallery\, Whitney Museum of American Art\, KW Berlin\, ICA Boston\, and the Kunstmuseum Stuttgart. Screenings include Cannes Film Festival\, Berlin Film Festival\, New York Film Festival\, The Museum of Modern Art\, The National Gallery of Art\, and the Harvard Film Archive\, among many other museums and cinematheques. She has been a fellow of the DAAD Berliner Künstlerprogramm\, the Guggenheim Foundation\, and The Film Study Center at Harvard University\, as well as a recipient of the ICA Bostonʼs Foster Prize and\, most recently\, a Sundance Institute Film Fund award for Provenance.\n\nLead support for this exhibition is provided by the Herbert W. and Susan L. Johe Endowment. Additional generous support is provided by the University of Michigan Penny W.

The sixteen photographs included in this exhibition speak to an especially charged collaboration between photographer and model in that they are all portraits of artists.\n\nWhen a photographer is faced with a subject who is so thoroughly invested in artistic representation\, how might this impact his or her own photographic aesthetic? In this suite of remarkable photographs\, we witness different manifestations of this phenomenon at work. For example\, we see results ranging from the surreal to the seemingly straightforward through encounters between Salvador Dalí and Philippe Halsman\; Frida Kahlo and Manuel Álvarez Bravo\; and Georgia O’Keeffe and Ansel Adams. In other cases the photographer intentionally frames the photographic subject alongside the artist’s own work of art so that they become compelling participants in their own painted or sculptural compositions.\n\nThis exhibition invites viewers to consider how the difficult task of representing another artist is productively accomplished through the collaborative aesthetic resonances discernable between model and photographer in these portraits. \n\nLead support for this exhibition is provided by the University of Michigan Health System.

Paramodel works in a variety of media\, including painting\, sculpture\, video\, and photography\, often combining pieces in site-specific installations that seek to construct a parallel world of “play” intersecting with the real world. For UMMA’s exhibition\, Paramodel will create a new installation derived from their most famous series\, paramodelic-graffiti. In a mesmerizing network of blue-colored model railroads that fill flat surfaces in and beyond the gallery\, the installation will transgress the boundaries of space\, media\, and art production\, collapsing the distinction between gallery and street\; between two-dimensional drawing and three-dimensional object\; and between creator and spectator. The exhibition will create an experience for visitors full of what the team calls “paradoxes.”\n\nThough they’ve shown extensively in Asia and Europe over the past ten years\, this marks Paramodel’s first solo exhibition of work in the United States.\n\nLead support for this exhibition is provided by the University of Michigan Office of the President\, Office of the Provost\, and Center for Japanese Studies\, the Japan Foundation\, and the E.

Dr. Engel will be discussing a recent paper that examines the bases for federal allocation\, among the various states\, of the greenhouse gas emissions reductions needed to meet federal air pollution standards under the Clean Air Act. Because of the Obama Administration’s intent to exploit the climate change-related regulatory opportunities available under the Act\, including those available under the Act’s cooperative federalism provisions\, this allocation question will continue as an important issue to federal and state environmental regulators\, regulated entities and the public. The paper concludes that recent rulemakings of the Obama Administration reveal an evolving new approach to the federal government’s role under the cooperative federalism framework seen in the Clean Air Act\, one in which the federal government assists states in addressing the collective action problems presented by interstate and global pollution problems. Because the new approach relies upon agency statutory interpretations\, however\, the permanence of this new approach will depend in large part upon the Administration’s success in obtaining judicial deference to its statutory interpretations.\n\nKirsten Engel is the Charles E. Ares Professor of Law at the James E. Rogers College of Law at the University of Arizona where she teaches and researches in the areas of environmental and administrative law with a particular emphasis upon federalism and the role of the courts in fostering policy responses to climate change. Since 2013\, Engel has been serving as the Law College’s Associate Dean of Academic Affairs. Engel is the co-author of an environmental law textbook\, Environmental Law: A Conceptual And Pragmatic Approach (2d ed.)\, and numerous book chapters and articles. Her work appears in journals such as the UCLA Law Review Discourse\, the Minnesota Law Review\, and the Ecology Law Quarterly. Prior to joining the law faculty at the University of Arizona\, Engel held appointments within academia and in the public and nonprofit sectors\, including the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency\, the Massachusetts' Attorney General's Office\, and visiting and permanent professorships at Harvard\, Vanderbilt\, and Tulane Law Schools.\n\nFor more information contact Bonnie Roberts at fischerb@umich.edu or 734-647-4091\, or visit our website at www.closup.umich.edu.

This account centers on the role of the concrete block apartment buildings that came to dominate the landscape throughout state-socialist eastern Europe and the aesthetic styles that emerged in opposition to it. Discontent with the state socialist regime became inseparable from discontent with its modernist housing forms\, and a shared “organicist” aesthetic emerged in the way families furnished their homes inside these rectilinear buildings. This organicist aesthetic included an affection for natural materials as well as “folk” artifacts\, weathered by time or crafted with traditional methods. But far from being aligned with a backwards-looking nationalism\, the style united elements of peasant artisanal traditions with the informality and open qualities of modern design.\n\nAfter the regime change of 1989\, the “folk” elements of this style became intensely politicized by state nationalism. A professionally-designed “organicist architecture” became the symbol of the newly independent nation-state and the only architectural style appropriate for new churches. Organicist décor\, meanwhile\, was transformed from do-it-yourself production into upscale commodities purchased by the emerging middle classes. On the one hand\, this organicist aesthetic has encompassed divergent political orientations\, including populist right\, a neoliberal left\, and environmentalist alternatives. On the other\, the continuing attachments to such organicism contribute powerful constraints on the kinds of politics possible in Hungary today.\n\nKrisztina Fehérváry\, associate professor of anthropology at the University of Michigan\, received her Ph.D. from The University of Chicago. She is the author of Politics in Color and Concrete: Socialist Materialities and the Middle Classes (Indiana University Press\, 2013). Her work on materiality\, consumer culture\, aesthetics\, popular culture and socio-historical transformation\, especially in socialist/post-socialist eastern Europe\, has been published in journals such as Cultural Anthropology\, Comparative Studies in Society and History\, Social Identities\, Ethnos and City and Society.

This presentation demonstrates that\, whilst music as a sensory-perceptual experience cannot be analyzed via linguistic means\, aesthetic and cultural concepts written about music can. In Western music\, composers have generally continued the tradition of “describing” how their works should be performed\, engaging in the use of musical terms such as affettuoso (‘tenderly’ in Italian)\, etc. Chinese musical concepts present a compelling focal point of study since many have been in use for several millennia. These concepts not only provide a window through which to tap into Chinese music\, they are also “cultural key words…which reflect the core values” of Chinese culture (following Wierzbicka 1991: 333). As our linguistic tool for analysis\, this study adopts the Natural Semantic Metalanguage\, as advanced by Wierzbicka and Goddard. Analyzed meanings of selected Chinese musical concepts illustrate how\, why and in what respects these concepts attest to important aesthetic and cultural values in Chinese.\n\nAdrian Tien is an assistant professor in the Department of Chinese Studies\, National University of Singapore. His teaching and research interests include linguistics\, specializing in the areas of semantics\, language and culture\, cross-cultural communication\, language acquisition\, translation and language and music. Dr. Tien is also trained as a musicologist and is a sought-after musician (pianist and carillonneur)\, being a prizewinner of several international music competitions. \n\nThis talk is part of CIUM's Chinese Arts and Culture Festival from September 24 to September 27\, 2014.

The ongoing NASA/ESA Cassini mission - still making exciting discoveries 10 years after its arrival in the rich Saturnian system - has found that three seas of liquid hydrocarbons adorn Saturn’s giant\, frigid moon Titan. Titan was already exotic\, having a thick\, organic-rich atmosphere\, and a diverse landscape with mountains\, craters\, river channels and vast fields of sand dunes\, but these seas\, and hundreds of lakes\, present a new environment (low gravity\, dense atmosphere\, hydrocarbon liquid) in which to explore familiar and important physical processes such as air:sea heat and moisture exchange\, wind-driven currents and waves\, etc. Moreover\, Titan’s seas (notably the two largest ones\, Kraken Mare and Ligiea Mare\, about 1000km and 400km across\, respectively) offer an appealing and accessible target for future Titan exploration.

Former members of The Guggenheim Grotto\, Kevin May and Mick Lynch realized early on when faced with the concept of career that they had only one choice: Art. Their art of choice was music. They set out developing their multi-instrumental sound to support what has become one of the most unique\, identifiable and chilling vocal marriages. It’s not by chance that they have been compared over the years to the Beatles\, Simon and Garfunkel with a dash of Leonard Cohen and a few drops of Radiohead–add some of Ireland’s most poignant crooners and you might have a hint of their pedigree. Most recently they have been likened to Bon Iver and Fleet Foxes\, but they always remain outside the trends of the day retaining an aura of permanence along with deep wisdom. Yes\, they were born and bred Irish lads\, but their music has always been universal with a signature debt to Irish melancholy\, the sad sweet fragrance and elixir of pain that only the Irish can inject into a beautiful melody and lyric. The guys (having lived in Brooklyn for the last three years) have had a musical rebirth\, working with producer Chris Kuffner (Ingrid Michaelson\, Bess Rogers). They have developed their sonic landscape to produce an album that indicates a true breaking of the The Guggenheim Grotto mold. While retaining the sensibilities that made The Guggenheim Grotto so successful\, Storyman takes it to a much edgier\, bigger\, and beautiful place.

Come and see crystals from the Museum of Natural History\, books from the Library's collection\, and displays of the equipment used at the X-Ray Crystallography Lab.\n\nUNESCO chose 2014 as the International year of Crystallography because it commemorates two important anniversaries in the study of matter: the centennial of X-ray diffraction\, and the 400th anniversary of Kepler’s observation in 1611 of the symmetrical form of ice crystals. Both breakthroughs led to subsequent studies in the role of symmetry in matter and the nature of crystalline material.

Conceived in the 1950s by architects Le Corbusier and Pierre Jeanneret\, Chandigarh’s controversial modernist architecture includes original pieces of furniture created specifically for the building’s interiors. Recently these pieces have appeared at auction houses around the world\, commanding record prices. Starting with Chandigarh furniture in the present\, the film begins in New York apartments\, London townhouses\, Belgian villas\, and Paris salons of avid collectors. From there\, it moves backward to the furniture’s sale at auction\, preview exhibitions\, and photography for auction catalogues\, to restoration\, cargo shipping containers\, and Indian ports—ending finally in Chandigarh\, a city in a state of entropy. \n\n On October 19\, 2013\, Siegel auctioned Provenance at Christie’s in London\, turning the film into another object at auction\, inseparable from the market it depicts. Lot 248\, a second film\, captures the auction of Provenance\, becoming a mirror of the first\, repeating and completing the circuit of design and art that define speculative markets.\n\nAmie Siegel was born in 1974 in Chicago. Her work has been exhibited internationally at MoMA/PS1\, Walker Art Center\, Hayward Gallery\, Whitney Museum of American Art\, KW Berlin\, ICA Boston\, and the Kunstmuseum Stuttgart. Screenings include Cannes Film Festival\, Berlin Film Festival\, New York Film Festival\, The Museum of Modern Art\, The National Gallery of Art\, and the Harvard Film Archive\, among many other museums and cinematheques. She has been a fellow of the DAAD Berliner Künstlerprogramm\, the Guggenheim Foundation\, and The Film Study Center at Harvard University\, as well as a recipient of the ICA Bostonʼs Foster Prize and\, most recently\, a Sundance Institute Film Fund award for Provenance.\n\nLead support for this exhibition is provided by the Herbert W. and Susan L. Johe Endowment. Additional generous support is provided by the University of Michigan Penny W.

The sixteen photographs included in this exhibition speak to an especially charged collaboration between photographer and model in that they are all portraits of artists.\n\nWhen a photographer is faced with a subject who is so thoroughly invested in artistic representation\, how might this impact his or her own photographic aesthetic? In this suite of remarkable photographs\, we witness different manifestations of this phenomenon at work. For example\, we see results ranging from the surreal to the seemingly straightforward through encounters between Salvador Dalí and Philippe Halsman\; Frida Kahlo and Manuel Álvarez Bravo\; and Georgia O’Keeffe and Ansel Adams. In other cases the photographer intentionally frames the photographic subject alongside the artist’s own work of art so that they become compelling participants in their own painted or sculptural compositions.\n\nThis exhibition invites viewers to consider how the difficult task of representing another artist is productively accomplished through the collaborative aesthetic resonances discernable between model and photographer in these portraits. \n\nLead support for this exhibition is provided by the University of Michigan Health System.

Paramodel works in a variety of media\, including painting\, sculpture\, video\, and photography\, often combining pieces in site-specific installations that seek to construct a parallel world of “play” intersecting with the real world. For UMMA’s exhibition\, Paramodel will create a new installation derived from their most famous series\, paramodelic-graffiti. In a mesmerizing network of blue-colored model railroads that fill flat surfaces in and beyond the gallery\, the installation will transgress the boundaries of space\, media\, and art production\, collapsing the distinction between gallery and street\; between two-dimensional drawing and three-dimensional object\; and between creator and spectator. The exhibition will create an experience for visitors full of what the team calls “paradoxes.”\n\nThough they’ve shown extensively in Asia and Europe over the past ten years\, this marks Paramodel’s first solo exhibition of work in the United States.\n\nLead support for this exhibition is provided by the University of Michigan Office of the President\, Office of the Provost\, and Center for Japanese Studies\, the Japan Foundation\, and the E.

They're delivered in a tenor voice with a beautiful patina of roughness. Ari comes to Michigan with a new release\, \"Shouts and Whispers\,\" which his website calls \"a non-typical collection of tracks that ultimately form a cohesive narrative.

Korn \"Final Friday\" series on College Student Mental Health! \nIt will take place on Friday\, September 26th\, from 10:30-noon in the Anderson Room of the Michigan Union. \n\nThis professional development series honors Harold A. Korn\, Ph.D.\, who had been both the Director of the Counseling Center and a Professor in our Psychology Department. It is funded through a generous endowment by an anonymous donor. \n\nThe topic and presenter for this month:\n\n“What! You’re Gay? You Don’t Act Gay.”\nLGBQ Microaggressions and Students’ Mental Health \n\nMichael Woodford\, MSW\, Ph.D.\nLyle S. Hallman Faculty of Social Work\, Wilfrid Laurier University\nDescription: Minority stress theory suggests that heterosexism increases sexual minorities’ risk for psychological distress and mental health problems. Researchers have examined the relationship between heterosexism and mental health among sexual minority college students\, but little attention has been given to subtle heterosexism\, including LGBQ microaggressions. Further\, little is known about the factors that can foster students’ resilience to heterosexism. Drawing on recent research\, this presentation will explore the nature of contemporary heterosexism on college campuses\, examine the mental health correlates of blatant heterosexism as well as interpersonal and environmental microaggressions\, and consider the role of socio-ecological factors that can buffer students from the effects of heterosexism. Practice\, policy\, and research implications will be discussed. \n\nThe presentations are open to all including Student Life staff\, our liaisons\, and community providers. Continuing Education credits are available (free) for Social Workers and refreshments are provided.\n\nPlease join us if you are able!

Conceived in the 1950s by architects Le Corbusier and Pierre Jeanneret\, Chandigarh’s controversial modernist architecture includes original pieces of furniture created specifically for the building’s interiors. Recently these pieces have appeared at auction houses around the world\, commanding record prices. Starting with Chandigarh furniture in the present\, the film begins in New York apartments\, London townhouses\, Belgian villas\, and Paris salons of avid collectors. From there\, it moves backward to the furniture’s sale at auction\, preview exhibitions\, and photography for auction catalogues\, to restoration\, cargo shipping containers\, and Indian ports—ending finally in Chandigarh\, a city in a state of entropy. \n\n On October 19\, 2013\, Siegel auctioned Provenance at Christie’s in London\, turning the film into another object at auction\, inseparable from the market it depicts. Lot 248\, a second film\, captures the auction of Provenance\, becoming a mirror of the first\, repeating and completing the circuit of design and art that define speculative markets.\n\nAmie Siegel was born in 1974 in Chicago. Her work has been exhibited internationally at MoMA/PS1\, Walker Art Center\, Hayward Gallery\, Whitney Museum of American Art\, KW Berlin\, ICA Boston\, and the Kunstmuseum Stuttgart. Screenings include Cannes Film Festival\, Berlin Film Festival\, New York Film Festival\, The Museum of Modern Art\, The National Gallery of Art\, and the Harvard Film Archive\, among many other museums and cinematheques. She has been a fellow of the DAAD Berliner Künstlerprogramm\, the Guggenheim Foundation\, and The Film Study Center at Harvard University\, as well as a recipient of the ICA Bostonʼs Foster Prize and\, most recently\, a Sundance Institute Film Fund award for Provenance.\n\nLead support for this exhibition is provided by the Herbert W. and Susan L.

The sixteen photographs included in this exhibition speak to an especially charged collaboration between photographer and model in that they are all portraits of artists.\n\nWhen a photographer is faced with a subject who is so thoroughly invested in artistic representation\, how might this impact his or her own photographic aesthetic? In this suite of remarkable photographs\, we witness different manifestations of this phenomenon at work. For example\, we see results ranging from the surreal to the seemingly straightforward through encounters between Salvador Dalí and Philippe Halsman\; Frida Kahlo and Manuel Álvarez Bravo\; and Georgia O’Keeffe and Ansel Adams. In other cases the photographer intentionally frames the photographic subject alongside the artist’s own work of art so that they become compelling participants in their own painted or sculptural compositions.\n\nThis exhibition invites viewers to consider how the difficult task of representing another artist is productively accomplished through the collaborative aesthetic resonances discernable between model and photographer in these portraits. \n\nLead support for this exhibition is provided by the University of Michigan Health System.

Paramodel works in a variety of media\, including painting\, sculpture\, video\, and photography\, often combining pieces in site-specific installations that seek to construct a parallel world of “play” intersecting with the real world. For UMMA’s exhibition\, Paramodel will create a new installation derived from their most famous series\, paramodelic-graffiti. In a mesmerizing network of blue-colored model railroads that fill flat surfaces in and beyond the gallery\, the installation will transgress the boundaries of space\, media\, and art production\, collapsing the distinction between gallery and street\; between two-dimensional drawing and three-dimensional object\; and between creator and spectator. The exhibition will create an experience for visitors full of what the team calls “paradoxes.”\n\nThough they’ve shown extensively in Asia and Europe over the past ten years\, this marks Paramodel’s first solo exhibition of work in the United States.\n\nLead support for this exhibition is provided by the University of Michigan Office of the President\, Office of the Provost\, and Center for Japanese Studies\, the Japan Foundation\, and the E.

These tunes are featured as “songs of welcome” in Confucian ceremonial rites. “Short Impressions of the Solitary Orchids” is based on one of the earliest-known guqin compositions\, You Lan “Solitary Orchids”\, originally attributed to Confucius. It depicts the great philosopher’s feeling of isolation and frustration in not being able to put his wisdom and talents to use. Two original compositions by the carillonist are featured in this program. The “Wind Chimes” is an evocation of harmony and prosperity based on a mixture of pentatonic and whole-tone scales\, while the “Fantasy on CABEA”\, based on letters from the word Canberra – capital city of Australia\, where the carillonist comes from – is dwelt on a trance-like repetition of the notes\, C\, A\, B and E. To conclude the program\, two folk song arrangements are presented. Both these folk songs are based on rustic and rural settings. These exude a quality of moving simplicity and tranquility.\n\nAdrian Tien PhD\, QTA (Queen's Trust Achiever) is an Assistant Professor in the Department of Chinese Studies\, National University of Singapore. His teaching and research interests include linguistics\, specialising in the areas of semantics\, language and culture\, cross-cultural communication\, language acquisition\, translation and language and music.

As a performer\, he's had the great fortune to work with various artists including Terry Creach\, Ann Carlson\, Wendy Woodson\, Yanira Castro\, and Amy Chavasse. As a free-lance teacher/choreographer Peter has taught at various colleges and institutions throughout the U.S.\, Europe\, New Zealand\, and Turkey. Recent New York Theater performances include: Bent\, Mother Courage\, Limitless Joy\, Endgame\, as well as summer theater at the Bristol Valley Theater. Class for students runs from 12:10-2 PM. Public welcome to observe the class. Each session features a different guest artist who teaches a master class and sections from their repertory—this panorama of the contemporary dance field is presented to broaden the student’s awareness of what career possibilities are out there. The guest artist conducts a 30-minute technique class/warm-up and then teaches repertory that is performed by the class. In the final 15-20 minutes faculty coordinator Bill De Young conducts a Q and A interviewing each guest artist about their career and what recommendations they have about the transition from student to professional and what they look for when they audition dancers for their projects.

Examining the shared affect of pride and frustration among women volunteers\, this ethnography demonstrates the role of emotions in boundary work around intersecting social categories. Rather than privilege ethnic boundaries within the migrant encounter\, I find that the South Korean middle-class women volunteers engaged in ethnic boundary work that intersected with gender and social class\, as they asserted their moral worth and authority as the “maternal guardians” of migrant women. These boundaries were drawn against a perceived lack of intimate knowledge of migrant women on the part of other social actors including male volunteers and organizers\, privileged upper-class funders and state representatives\, and the lower-class marital families of migrant women. Intimate labors with migrant women thus became the medium through which these middle-class South Korean women pursued respect and recognition in the face of their own gendered and classed discontent in contemporary South Korea.\n\nHae Yeon Choo is an Assistant Professor in the Department of Sociology at the University of Toronto. Her research centers on gender\, transnational migration\, and citizenship. Her interest in using intersectional analysis empirically informs her articles in Sociological Theory and Gender & Society. Her book manuscript Shadows of Citizenship: Gender\, Labor\, and Migrant Rights in South Korea (under contract with Stanford University Press) offers an account of how inequalities of gender\, race\, and class affect migrants’ practice of rights through a comparative study of three groups of Filipina women in South Korea—factory workers\, wives of South Korean men\, and hostesses at American military camptown clubs. She has also translated Patricia Hill Collins’s Black Feminist Thought into Korean.\n\nCosponsored by the U-M Departments of Women's Studies and Sociology and by the U-M Center for Southeast Asian Studies UID:18655-1212402@events.umich.edu URL:https://events.umich.edu/event/18655 CLASS:PUBLIC STATUS:CONFIRMED CATEGORIES:Korea,Migrant Women,SE Asia LOCATION:LSA Building - 4154 CONTACT: END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20140908T120009 DTSTART;TZID=America/Detroit:20140926T150000 DTEND;TZID=America/Detroit:20140926T190000 SUMMARY:Exhibition:Tom Tjaarda Exhibition DESCRIPTION:Tjaarda (B.Arch.’58) is one of the world’s most innovative and distinguished designers.

This is true from both a craft perspective\, as a study of methodology\, and from that of museums looking to feature installations and establish collections. This trend developed as scholars of traditional ink painting\, and artists who work in the medium\, have been forced to confront the question of whether the form remains relevant and retains the persuasive artistic power it has traditionally held\, or whether it must become more reflective of the contemporary.\n\nBefore answering this question\, it is important to develop an ontological discourse on the tradition of painting in ink—to determine the core essence of the form in order to understand the ways in which its elements may be combined with contemporary techniques. What are we talking about when we discuss ink painting? Ink and rice paper as materials? The blackness of ink as a color? The brush as a strange tool? In contrasting various arguments\, it becomes clear that the existing discourse on ink painting\, in presuming the tradition a virtue\, over-evaluates its specialties and advantages in style\, and in its use of material and the tools employed. There is little basis for the assumption by devotees of the form that the techniques and material used in ink painting are superior to oil and canvas. Instead\, the true essence of ink painting\, and its strength as a medium\, comes from the spirituality of the literati ink painting tradition\, in which artists produce work with the aim of reflecting the ideal values of a community\, rather than to produce a physical object of value.\n\nProfessor Pan Gongkai will present his art practices in seeking alternative ways of combining the contemporary and the traditional: contemporary installation work with an ink element\; a video installation presenting reflections on the aesthetic mechanics of ink painting\; and practices developed from the sense of self-discipline which evolved with the tradition. Only the last should be considered new ink\, though the first two make for interesting contemporary work.\n\nA renowned artist\, theoretician and educator\, Pan Gongkai is a strong proponent of the Chinese ink painting tradition. His large ink paintings retain essential elements of traditional literati painting enhanced with modern aesthetics. In this way\, his work exemplifies a modern synthesis of traditional ink and wash painting. Critically acclaimed\, Pan’s ink paintings and installations works have been exhibited at the Paris headquarters of UNESCO\, Venice Biennale\, ZKM in Germany and major art museums in New York\, San Francisco\, Beijing\, Tokyo\, Hong Kong and Macao. He is the author of History of Painting in China\, Limit and Exploration\, Analysis of Pan Tianshou’s Painting Skill and On Pan Tianshou’s Life and Art. In recent years\, Pan has dedicated himself to comprehensive research on modern Chinese art\, and his recent publication The Road of Chinese Modern Art has made a significant impact on the liberal arts in China. Pan currently serves as the president of the China Central Academy of Fine Arts in Beijing.

Conceived in the 1950s by architects Le Corbusier and Pierre Jeanneret\, Chandigarh’s controversial modernist architecture includes original pieces of furniture created specifically for the building’s interiors. Recently these pieces have appeared at auction houses around the world\, commanding record prices. Starting with Chandigarh furniture in the present\, the film begins in New York apartments\, London townhouses\, Belgian villas\, and Paris salons of avid collectors. From there\, it moves backward to the furniture’s sale at auction\, preview exhibitions\, and photography for auction catalogues\, to restoration\, cargo shipping containers\, and Indian ports—ending finally in Chandigarh\, a city in a state of entropy. \n\n On October 19\, 2013\, Siegel auctioned Provenance at Christie’s in London\, turning the film into another object at auction\, inseparable from the market it depicts. Lot 248\, a second film\, captures the auction of Provenance\, becoming a mirror of the first\, repeating and completing the circuit of design and art that define speculative markets.\n\nAmie Siegel was born in 1974 in Chicago. Her work has been exhibited internationally at MoMA/PS1\, Walker Art Center\, Hayward Gallery\, Whitney Museum of American Art\, KW Berlin\, ICA Boston\, and the Kunstmuseum Stuttgart. Screenings include Cannes Film Festival\, Berlin Film Festival\, New York Film Festival\, The Museum of Modern Art\, The National Gallery of Art\, and the Harvard Film Archive\, among many other museums and cinematheques. She has been a fellow of the DAAD Berliner Künstlerprogramm\, the Guggenheim Foundation\, and The Film Study Center at Harvard University\, as well as a recipient of the ICA Bostonʼs Foster Prize and\, most recently\, a Sundance Institute Film Fund award for Provenance.\n\nLead support for this exhibition is provided by the Herbert W. and Susan L. Johe Endowment. Additional generous support is provided by the University of Michigan Penny W. Stamps School of Art & Design\, Taubman College of Architecture + Urban Planning\, and Institute for the Humanities.

The sixteen photographs included in this exhibition speak to an especially charged collaboration between photographer and model in that they are all portraits of artists.\n\nWhen a photographer is faced with a subject who is so thoroughly invested in artistic representation\, how might this impact his or her own photographic aesthetic? In this suite of remarkable photographs\, we witness different manifestations of this phenomenon at work. For example\, we see results ranging from the surreal to the seemingly straightforward through encounters between Salvador Dalí and Philippe Halsman\; Frida Kahlo and Manuel Álvarez Bravo\; and Georgia O’Keeffe and Ansel Adams. In other cases the photographer intentionally frames the photographic subject alongside the artist’s own work of art so that they become compelling participants in their own painted or sculptural compositions.\n\nThis exhibition invites viewers to consider how the difficult task of representing another artist is productively accomplished through the collaborative aesthetic resonances discernable between model and photographer in these portraits. \n\nLead support for this exhibition is provided by the University of Michigan Health System.

Paramodel works in a variety of media\, including painting\, sculpture\, video\, and photography\, often combining pieces in site-specific installations that seek to construct a parallel world of “play” intersecting with the real world. For UMMA’s exhibition\, Paramodel will create a new installation derived from their most famous series\, paramodelic-graffiti. In a mesmerizing network of blue-colored model railroads that fill flat surfaces in and beyond the gallery\, the installation will transgress the boundaries of space\, media\, and art production\, collapsing the distinction between gallery and street\; between two-dimensional drawing and three-dimensional object\; and between creator and spectator. The exhibition will create an experience for visitors full of what the team calls “paradoxes.”\n\nThough they’ve shown extensively in Asia and Europe over the past ten years\, this marks Paramodel’s first solo exhibition of work in the United States.\n\nLead support for this exhibition is provided by the University of Michigan Office of the President\, Office of the Provost\, and Center for Japanese Studies\, the Japan Foundation\, and the E. Rhodes and Leona B. Carpenter Foundation. Additional generous support is provided by the University of Michigan Credit Union and the Herbert W. and Susan L. Johe Endowment.

The series will culminate on October 5\, 2014 with a symposium that will explore the importance of this circle of Ann Arbor-based architects\, situating their regional body of domestic work into the larger context of modern architecture in the U.S. that developed on the East Coast and West Coast from the 1930s–1980s. Symposium participants include UMMA Director Joseph Rosa\, Head of the University Archives Program at the Bentley Historical Library Nancy Bartlett\, Bentley Associate Archivist and Head of Digital Curation Services Nancy Deromedi\, and Taubman College of Architecture and Urban Planning faculty Claire Zimmerman\, Greg Saldaña\, Craig Borum\, and Robert Beckley.\n\nThis exhibition is part of the U-M Collections Collaborations series\, which showcases the renowned and diverse collections of the University of Michigan.

These tunes are featured as “songs of welcome” in Confucian ceremonial rites. “Short Impressions of the Solitary Orchids” is based on one of the earliest-known guqin compositions\, You Lan “Solitary Orchids”\, originally attributed to Confucius. It depicts the great philosopher’s feeling of isolation and frustration in not being able to put his wisdom and talents to use. Two original compositions by the carillonist are featured in this program. The “Wind Chimes” is an evocation of harmony and prosperity based on a mixture of pentatonic and whole-tone scales\, while the “Fantasy on CABEA”\, based on letters from the word Canberra – capital city of Australia\, where the carillonist comes from – is dwelt on a trance-like repetition of the notes\, C\, A\, B and E. To conclude the program\, two folk song arrangements are presented. Both these folk songs are based on rustic and rural settings. These exude a quality of moving simplicity and tranquility.\n\nAdrian Tien PhD\, QTA (Queen's Trust Achiever) is an Assistant Professor in the Department of Chinese Studies\, National University of Singapore. His teaching and research interests include linguistics\, specialising in the areas of semantics\, language and culture\, cross-cultural communication\, language acquisition\, translation and language and music. Dr. Tien is also trained as a musicologist and is a sought-after musician (pianist and carillonneur)\, being a prizewinner of several international music competitions.\n\nThis presentation is part of CIUM's Chinese Arts and Culture Festival from September 24 to September 27\, 2014.
