SUMMARY:Exhibition:Exhibit: The International Year of Crystallography
DESCRIPTION:\n\nCrystallography is the branch of science concerned with the structure and properties of crystals. 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

SUMMARY:Other:Gifts of Art presents Bird Pants & Other Formal Forest Wear
DESCRIPTION:Missy Orge creates work that is evocative of scientific curiosities and mounted butterflies\, with a humor that sneaks up and inspires a closer look. Her current work focuses on birdpants and formal wear of the forest – tiny pants for birds and frogs\, and dapper suits for squirrels that “could be for backyard visitors who are fashion-forward or simply chilly in the Michigan winter.” She employs traditional craftwork such as quilting\, embroidery and beading to produce her highly detailed – and decidedly nontraditional – confections. Making Ann Arbor her home for more than 20 years\, she spends her spare time filling bird feeders in the hope that\, one day\, she can talk a songbird into modeling her creations.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Gifts of Art presents Changing Light: Digital Photography by
DESCRIPTION:After a forty-year career as a clinical psychologist\, Lansing\, Michigan artist Arnold Berkman retired in order to pursue a career as a fine arts photographer. Berkman's photography has a painterly quality due to his use of light. True to the definition of photography\, he sees his work as writing\, drawing or painting with light\, transforming the elements of subject\, color and shape into compositions. Appreciating that a photograph captures a fleeting moment in time\, he uses light to create emotional moods and bring his images to life.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:Grand Rapids Padnos Lecture: \"The Shtetl in the Museum: Depicting Jews in the Soviet Union and in Russia Today\"
DESCRIPTION:This lecture considers two major museum exhibits devoted to Jews\, one organized in the Soviet Union on the eve of World War II\, and the other established in 2012 in the Russian Federation. The first\, the state-funded 1939 exhibit “The Jews in Tsarist Russia and in the USSR” was organized by the Jewish Section of the State Museum of Ethnography in Leningrad\, and remained on permanent display to the Soviet public until the Nazi invasion in 1941. The second\, the Jewish Museum and Center for Toleration in Moscow\, is reportedly the largest Jewish museum in the world. Its construction cost an estimated $50 million\, with donations from Russian oligarchs and Vladimir Putin himself. Though conceived in radically different political circumstances\, each of these exhibits conveys a significant message about the place of Jews in Soviet and post-Soviet society. Why did the Stalinist regime subsidize a special exhibit devoted to Jews on the eve of World War II\, and why did it never reopen this exhibit after 1945? In contrast\, why has a new and lavishly-funded museum devoted to the history of the Jews now opened in Putin’s Russia? What motivates a powerful state – one Soviet\, one post-Soviet – to put Jews “on display”?

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. Stamps School of Art & Design\, Taubman College of Architecture + Urban Planning\, and Institute for the Humanities.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Exhibition: Fred Tomaselli: The Times
DESCRIPTION:Even in our digital age of constant information\, the rhythmic cycle of the daily newspaper is still a central form of organizing the world around us. The paper’s front page records in the present tense what will eventually become history. It orients our attention to pressing actions\, be they individual\, political\, or natural\, that over time repeat and rearrange into patterns around common human motivations. Fred Tomaselli‘s The Times traffics in these patterns\, reflecting and reinventing them through complexly layered collages superimposed on recent cover stories in The New York Times. The collages surface unseen connections\, rearrange realities\, and reveal relationships of images and ideas across time and space.\n\nTomaselli uses images within the familiar grid of the front page as portals\, overwriting and manipulating the supposed objective reality of the newspaper with his completely subjective surreality. His interventions play against the detachment of journalistic forms\, inserting emotion\, fantasy\, and absurdity to counterpoint or underscore the original narrative. Tomaselli says these works “freeze time\,” trapping inherently ephemeral events and images like flies in amber. But in aggregate this act also reimagines time\, linking images and actions of a chosen day to their counterparts in the past and in some projected future.\n\nThe Times grew from Tomaselli’s own doodlings of personal commentary while reading\, eventually spurring him to marry his “news junkie” habit with his studio practice. The series runs the gamut from hard-edged abstraction to hallucinatory pattern play\, and engages in a dialogue with art historical imagery and themes\, refracted through present-day news images.\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 Department of American Culture\, Department of the History of Art\, Institute for the Humanities\, and Penny W. Stamps School of Art & Design.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Exhibition: Paramodel
DESCRIPTION:This exhibition will present Paramodel\, an art collaborative established by two contemporary Japanese artists\, Yasuhiko Hayashi (born 1971) and Yûsuke Nakano (born 1976)\, in Osaka in 2001. 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.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Exhibition: Reductive Minimalism: Women Artists in Dialogue\, 1960–2014
DESCRIPTION:Nearly fifty years after its heyday\, Minimalism is enjoying a resurgence of critical attention\, though much of the focus continues to be on male artists or on a small number of women sculptors. Reductive Minimalism: Women Artists in Dialogue\, 1960-2014 offers a fresh perspective on the movement and its evolution\, bringing together formative works from two generations of women Minimalist painters to examine and celebrate the dialogue between them.\n\nMinimalism was born in the late 1950s as a reaction to the perceived hubris and theatricality of Abstract Expressionism. But though its most prominent\, mostly male\, practitioners favored an aesthetic of clean geometry and essential forms\, the hubris remained—in oversized works with grandiose themes. Women Minimalist painters\, however\, took a more restrained or reductive approach\, one more intimate in scale\, more personal in narrative\, and more open-ended in its experimentation with pure surface\, color\, and texture.\n\nMany of these women—Agnes Martin and Mary Corse among them—worked outside the New York art world and outside the critical discourse that would have offered them support and recognition. Gender politics\, though not necessarily the impetus for their work\, played a role in the circumstances of where and how they practiced. In spite of their relative isolation\, their work had a profound influence on the current generation of women minimalist painters—including Tauba Auerbach and R.H. Quaytman—who have global exposure and who are celebrated in a varied and robust critical environment. In the gallery\, Reductive Minimalism traces the conversation between these two generations in an installation of nine pairs of paintings\, to reveal the call-and-response of their artistic symbiosis.\n\nLead support for this exhibition is provided by the University of Michigan Office of the Provost\, the University of Michigan Health System\, and the Richard and Rosann Noel Endowment Fund. Additional generous support is provided by the Susan and Richard Gutow Fund\, Elaine Pitt\, the University of Michigan CEW Frances and Sydney Lewis Visiting Leaders Fund\, Department of the History of Art\, the Katherine Tuck Enrichment Fund\, and the Doris Sloan Memorial Fund.

SUMMARY:Other:Exhibition: Suspended Moments: Photographs from the David S. Rosen Collection
DESCRIPTION:Each of the works in Suspended Moments: Photographs from the David S. Rosen Collection offers insights into an interior world\, most glimpsed from the vantage point of a child or young adult. The exhibition—featuring photographs of children at various stages\, particularly those difficult years that chart the transition from childhood to adulthood—includes images that were clearly very closely related to the research interests of the collector\, Dr. David S. Rosen. Rosen was a physician on the staff of the University of Michigan Medical School\, and a pediatrician with a specialization in adolescent medicine. He was a dedicated collector as well as a practicing photographer. In addition to Rosen’s own photographs of young adults and children\, the exhibition also features the works of other photographers known for their images of childhood\, including Sally Mann\, Dawoud Bey\, and Helen Levitt\, among others. The exhibition\, organized in tribute to Rosen as an educator and artist\, also examines the doctor’s vision as a collector\, in works by landscape and still life photographers such as Ansel Adams\, Michael Kenna\, Howard Bond\, and Billie Mercer.    \n\nLead support for this exhibition is provided by the University of Michigan Health System.

SUMMARY:Other:Guided Tour: Fred Tomaselli: The Times
DESCRIPTION:Even in our digital age of constant information\, the rhythmic cycle of the daily newspaper is still a central form of organizing the world around us. The paper’s front page records in the present tense what will eventually become history. It orients our attention to pressing actions\, be they individual\, political\, or natural\, that over time repeat and rearrange into patterns around common human motivations. Fred Tomaselli‘s The Times traffics in these patterns\, reflecting and reinventing them through complexly layered collages superimposed on recent cover stories in The New York Times. The collages surface unseen connections\, rearrange realities\, and reveal relationships of images and ideas across time and space.\n\nTomaselli uses images within the familiar grid of the front page as portals\, overwriting and manipulating the supposed objective reality of the newspaper with his completely subjective surreality. His interventions play against the detachment of journalistic forms\, inserting emotion\, fantasy\, and absurdity to counterpoint or underscore the original narrative. Tomaselli says these works “freeze time\,” trapping inherently ephemeral events and images like flies in amber. But in aggregate this act also reimagines time\, linking images and actions of a chosen day to their counterparts in the past and in some projected future.\n\nThe Times grew from Tomaselli’s own doodlings of personal commentary while reading\, eventually spurring him to marry his “news junkie” habit with his studio practice. The series runs the gamut from hard-edged abstraction to hallucinatory pattern play\, and engages in a dialogue with art historical imagery and themes\, refracted through present-day news images.\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 Department of American Culture\, Department of the History of Art\, Institute for the Humanities\, and Penny W. Stamps School of Art & Design.

SUMMARY:Performance:The Secret Sisters
DESCRIPTION:The Secret Sisters opened for Nickel Creek at the Michigan Theater this summer\, and they gained a great big army of new fans! They initiate new traditions on their second full-length album\, \"Put Your Needle Down\,\" produced by the legendary T-Bone Burnett. The duo of Laura and Lydia Rogers has certainly come a long way from their critically acclaimed 2010 self-titled debut and an even longer way from their childhood in Florence\, Alabama—just outside of the legendary music mecca Muscle Shoals. “Put Your Needle Down is symbolic of many different things\,” affirms Lydia. “There’s a rebirth of the vinyl trend going on\, but it really represents the fact that we’re not little girls anymore. We want to put the needle down. Our mom isn’t still sewing our clothes. We’re doing our own thing.” Laura and Lydia apply a classic Southern sibling-harmony sound to a gumbo of country\, Americana\, blues\, folk\, and gospel\, and the result is an exciting new style that is deeply rooted in tradition but totally contemporary. Tulsa singer and guitarist Jacob Tovar opens the show with his band\, The Saddle Tramps.

DESCRIPTION:\n\nCrystallography is the branch of science concerned with the structure and properties of crystals. 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

DESCRIPTION:Missy Orge creates work that is evocative of scientific curiosities and mounted butterflies\, with a humor that sneaks up and inspires a closer look. Her current work focuses on birdpants and formal wear of the forest – tiny pants for birds and frogs\, and dapper suits for squirrels that “could be for backyard visitors who are fashion-forward or simply chilly in the Michigan winter.” She employs traditional craftwork such as quilting\, embroidery and beading to produce her highly detailed – and decidedly nontraditional – confections. Making Ann Arbor her home for more than 20 years\, she spends her spare time filling bird feeders in the hope that\, one day\, she can talk a songbird into modeling her creations.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Heart & Home: Primitive Painting
DESCRIPTION:The art of Primitive Americana comes naturally to Sandra Somers who was born and raised in a small midwestern town \"full of large old houses\, horse barns and lush farmland within roller skating range.\" Her primitive art\, created using acrylics\, depicts an active\, bustling world with interesting architecture that time has somehow overlooked. Nationally recognized museums\, historic townships and individual collectors have commissioned her work\, including the Henry Ford Museum and Greenfield Village.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Vietnamerica: Pop-Up Exhibition by GB Tran
DESCRIPTION:We are thrilled to introduce our exciting new Pop-Up exhibition series in the Osterman Common Room (#1022) featuring short (approx. 2 weeks) exhibitions of innovative\, thought-provoking work by artists from around the country. The first\, Vietnamerica\, is an exhibition of images from the author's graphic memoir of the same name\, a visually stunning portrait of survival\, escape\, and reinvention\, and of the fit of the American immigrants' dream\, passed on from immigrants to their children. In tellin his family story\, Tran finds his own place in this sage of hardship and heroism.\n\nAbout GB Tran and Vietnamerica: GB Tran is a young Vietnamese American artist who grew up distant from (and largely indifferent to) his family’s history. Born and raised in South Carolina as a son of immigrants\, he knew that his parents had fled Vietnam during the fall of Saigon. But even as they struggled to adapt to life in America\, they preferred to forget the past—and to focus on their children’s future. It was only in his late twenties that GB began to learn their extraordinary story. When his last surviving grandparents die within months of each other\, GB visits Vietnam for the first time and begins to learn the tragic history of his family\, and of the homeland they left behind.

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. Stamps School of Art & Design\, Taubman College of Architecture + Urban Planning\, and Institute for the Humanities.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Exhibition: Fred Tomaselli: The Times
DESCRIPTION:Even in our digital age of constant information\, the rhythmic cycle of the daily newspaper is still a central form of organizing the world around us. The paper’s front page records in the present tense what will eventually become history. It orients our attention to pressing actions\, be they individual\, political\, or natural\, that over time repeat and rearrange into patterns around common human motivations. Fred Tomaselli‘s The Times traffics in these patterns\, reflecting and reinventing them through complexly layered collages superimposed on recent cover stories in The New York Times. The collages surface unseen connections\, rearrange realities\, and reveal relationships of images and ideas across time and space.\n\nTomaselli uses images within the familiar grid of the front page as portals\, overwriting and manipulating the supposed objective reality of the newspaper with his completely subjective surreality. His interventions play against the detachment of journalistic forms\, inserting emotion\, fantasy\, and absurdity to counterpoint or underscore the original narrative. Tomaselli says these works “freeze time\,” trapping inherently ephemeral events and images like flies in amber. But in aggregate this act also reimagines time\, linking images and actions of a chosen day to their counterparts in the past and in some projected future.\n\nThe Times grew from Tomaselli’s own doodlings of personal commentary while reading\, eventually spurring him to marry his “news junkie” habit with his studio practice. The series runs the gamut from hard-edged abstraction to hallucinatory pattern play\, and engages in a dialogue with art historical imagery and themes\, refracted through present-day news images.\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 Department of American Culture\, Department of the History of Art\, Institute for the Humanities\, and Penny W. Stamps School of Art & Design.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Exhibition: Paramodel
DESCRIPTION:This exhibition will present Paramodel\, an art collaborative established by two contemporary Japanese artists\, Yasuhiko Hayashi (born 1971) and Yûsuke Nakano (born 1976)\, in Osaka in 2001. 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.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Exhibition: Reductive Minimalism: Women Artists in Dialogue\, 1960–2014
DESCRIPTION:Nearly fifty years after its heyday\, Minimalism is enjoying a resurgence of critical attention\, though much of the focus continues to be on male artists or on a small number of women sculptors. Reductive Minimalism: Women Artists in Dialogue\, 1960-2014 offers a fresh perspective on the movement and its evolution\, bringing together formative works from two generations of women Minimalist painters to examine and celebrate the dialogue between them.\n\nMinimalism was born in the late 1950s as a reaction to the perceived hubris and theatricality of Abstract Expressionism. But though its most prominent\, mostly male\, practitioners favored an aesthetic of clean geometry and essential forms\, the hubris remained—in oversized works with grandiose themes. Women Minimalist painters\, however\, took a more restrained or reductive approach\, one more intimate in scale\, more personal in narrative\, and more open-ended in its experimentation with pure surface\, color\, and texture.\n\nMany of these women—Agnes Martin and Mary Corse among them—worked outside the New York art world and outside the critical discourse that would have offered them support and recognition. Gender politics\, though not necessarily the impetus for their work\, played a role in the circumstances of where and how they practiced. In spite of their relative isolation\, their work had a profound influence on the current generation of women minimalist painters—including Tauba Auerbach and R.H. Quaytman—who have global exposure and who are celebrated in a varied and robust critical environment. In the gallery\, Reductive Minimalism traces the conversation between these two generations in an installation of nine pairs of paintings\, to reveal the call-and-response of their artistic symbiosis.\n\nLead support for this exhibition is provided by the University of Michigan Office of the Provost\, the University of Michigan Health System\, and the Richard and Rosann Noel Endowment Fund. Additional generous support is provided by the Susan and Richard Gutow Fund\, Elaine Pitt\, the University of Michigan CEW Frances and Sydney Lewis Visiting Leaders Fund\, Department of the History of Art\, the Katherine Tuck Enrichment Fund\, and the Doris Sloan Memorial Fund.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Exhibit: The International Year of Crystallography
DESCRIPTION:\n\nCrystallography is the branch of science concerned with the structure and properties of crystals. 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

SUMMARY:Other:Gifts of Art presents Bird Pants & Other Formal Forest Wear
DESCRIPTION:Missy Orge creates work that is evocative of scientific curiosities and mounted butterflies\, with a humor that sneaks up and inspires a closer look. Her current work focuses on birdpants and formal wear of the forest – tiny pants for birds and frogs\, and dapper suits for squirrels that “could be for backyard visitors who are fashion-forward or simply chilly in the Michigan winter.” She employs traditional craftwork such as quilting\, embroidery and beading to produce her highly detailed – and decidedly nontraditional – confections. Making Ann Arbor her home for more than 20 years\, she spends her spare time filling bird feeders in the hope that\, one day\, she can talk a songbird into modeling her creations.

DESCRIPTION:After a forty-year career as a clinical psychologist\, Lansing\, Michigan artist Arnold Berkman retired in order to pursue a career as a fine arts photographer. Berkman's photography has a painterly quality due to his use of light.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Vietnamerica: Pop-Up Exhibition by GB Tran
DESCRIPTION:We are thrilled to introduce our exciting new Pop-Up exhibition series in the Osterman Common Room (#1022) featuring short (approx. 2 weeks) exhibitions of innovative\, thought-provoking work by artists from around the country. The first\, Vietnamerica\, is an exhibition of images from the author's graphic memoir of the same name\, a visually stunning portrait of survival\, escape\, and reinvention\, and of the fit of the American immigrants' dream\, passed on from immigrants to their children. In tellin his family story\, Tran finds his own place in this sage of hardship and heroism.\n\nAbout GB Tran and Vietnamerica: GB Tran is a young Vietnamese American artist who grew up distant from (and largely indifferent to) his family’s history. Born and raised in South Carolina as a son of immigrants\, he knew that his parents had fled Vietnam during the fall of Saigon. But even as they struggled to adapt to life in America\, they preferred to forget the past—and to focus on their children’s future. It was only in his late twenties that GB began to learn their extraordinary story. When his last surviving grandparents die within months of each other\, GB visits Vietnam for the first time and begins to learn the tragic history of his family\, and of the homeland they left behind.

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.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Exhibition: Fred Tomaselli: The Times
DESCRIPTION:Even in our digital age of constant information\, the rhythmic cycle of the daily newspaper is still a central form of organizing the world around us. The paper’s front page records in the present tense what will eventually become history. It orients our attention to pressing actions\, be they individual\, political\, or natural\, that over time repeat and rearrange into patterns around common human motivations. Fred Tomaselli‘s The Times traffics in these patterns\, reflecting and reinventing them through complexly layered collages superimposed on recent cover stories in The New York Times. The collages surface unseen connections\, rearrange realities\, and reveal relationships of images and ideas across time and space.\n\nTomaselli uses images within the familiar grid of the front page as portals\, overwriting and manipulating the supposed objective reality of the newspaper with his completely subjective surreality. His interventions play against the detachment of journalistic forms\, inserting emotion\, fantasy\, and absurdity to counterpoint or underscore the original narrative. Tomaselli says these works “freeze time\,” trapping inherently ephemeral events and images like flies in amber. But in aggregate this act also reimagines time\, linking images and actions of a chosen day to their counterparts in the past and in some projected future.\n\nThe Times grew from Tomaselli’s own doodlings of personal commentary while reading\, eventually spurring him to marry his “news junkie” habit with his studio practice. The series runs the gamut from hard-edged abstraction to hallucinatory pattern play\, and engages in a dialogue with art historical imagery and themes\, refracted through present-day news images.\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 Department of American Culture\, Department of the History of Art\, Institute for the Humanities\, and Penny W. Stamps School of Art & Design.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Exhibition: Paramodel
DESCRIPTION:This exhibition will present Paramodel\, an art collaborative established by two contemporary Japanese artists\, Yasuhiko Hayashi (born 1971) and Yûsuke Nakano (born 1976)\, in Osaka in 2001. 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.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Exhibition: Reductive Minimalism: Women Artists in Dialogue\, 1960–2014
DESCRIPTION:Nearly fifty years after its heyday\, Minimalism is enjoying a resurgence of critical attention\, though much of the focus continues to be on male artists or on a small number of women sculptors. Reductive Minimalism: Women Artists in Dialogue\, 1960-2014 offers a fresh perspective on the movement and its evolution\, bringing together formative works from two generations of women Minimalist painters to examine and celebrate the dialogue between them.\n\nMinimalism was born in the late 1950s as a reaction to the perceived hubris and theatricality of Abstract Expressionism. But though its most prominent\, mostly male\, practitioners favored an aesthetic of clean geometry and essential forms\, the hubris remained—in oversized works with grandiose themes. Women Minimalist painters\, however\, took a more restrained or reductive approach\, one more intimate in scale\, more personal in narrative\, and more open-ended in its experimentation with pure surface\, color\, and texture.\n\nMany of these women—Agnes Martin and Mary Corse among them—worked outside the New York art world and outside the critical discourse that would have offered them support and recognition. Gender politics\, though not necessarily the impetus for their work\, played a role in the circumstances of where and how they practiced. In spite of their relative isolation\, their work had a profound influence on the current generation of women minimalist painters—including Tauba Auerbach and R.H. Quaytman—who have global exposure and who are celebrated in a varied and robust critical environment. In the gallery\, Reductive Minimalism traces the conversation between these two generations in an installation of nine pairs of paintings\, to reveal the call-and-response of their artistic symbiosis.\n\nLead support for this exhibition is provided by the University of Michigan Office of the Provost\, the University of Michigan Health System\, and the Richard and Rosann Noel Endowment Fund. Additional generous support is provided by the Susan and Richard Gutow Fund\, Elaine Pitt\, the University of Michigan CEW Frances and Sydney Lewis Visiting Leaders Fund\, Department of the History of Art\, the Katherine Tuck Enrichment Fund\, and the Doris Sloan Memorial Fund.

SUMMARY:Other:Exhibition: Suspended Moments: Photographs from the David S. Rosen Collection
DESCRIPTION:Each of the works in Suspended Moments: Photographs from the David S. Rosen Collection offers insights into an interior world\, most glimpsed from the vantage point of a child or young adult. The exhibition—featuring photographs of children at various stages\, particularly those difficult years that chart the transition from childhood to adulthood—includes images that were clearly very closely related to the research interests of the collector\, Dr. David S. Rosen. Rosen was a physician on the staff of the University of Michigan Medical School\, and a pediatrician with a specialization in adolescent medicine. He was a dedicated collector as well as a practicing photographer. In addition to Rosen’s own photographs of young adults and children\, the exhibition also features the works of other photographers known for their images of childhood\, including Sally Mann\, Dawoud Bey\, and Helen Levitt\, among others. The exhibition\, organized in tribute to Rosen as an educator and artist\, also examines the doctor’s vision as a collector\, in works by landscape and still life photographers such as Ansel Adams\, Michael Kenna\, Howard Bond\, and Billie Mercer.    \n\nLead support for this exhibition is provided by the University of Michigan Health System.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:LRCCS Noon Lecture Series
DESCRIPTION:Kristina Kleutghen\, Assistant Professor of Art History and Archaeology\, Washington University\n\nAt the eighteenth-century Chinese court\, an unprecedented type of monumental illusionistic painting seemed at first glance to be real spaces occupied by real figures and objects. Produced collaboratively by the best Chinese and Western painters serving the High Qing emperors\, these works mounted on walls and ceilings blended native and foreign techniques in works of confounding perspectival deceptiveness\, which were nonetheless deeply significant to their patron. Originally widely installed inside various imperial spaces in and around Beijing\, today only a few survive\, held almost exclusively inside restricted areas of the Forbidden City. In addition to offering new insights into late imperial China’s most influential rulers\, these little-known paintings provide a new perspective on how Chinese art integrated and rejected foreign concepts during the height of early modern Sino-European exchange.\n\nKristina Kleutghen is Assistant Professor of Art History and Archaeology at Washington University in St. Louis. She earned her Ph.D. in the History of Art and Architecture from Harvard University in 2010. Focusing on Chinese art of the Qing dynasty (1644-1911)\, her research investigates the imperial court\, optical devices\, foreign contact\, and connections to science and mathematics. Recent articles have appeared in Archives of Asian Art and Eighteenth-Century Studies\, and recent research has been supported by the National Endowment for the Humanities and the Getty Research Institute. Her first book\, Imperial Illusions: Crossing Pictorial Boundaries in the Qing Palaces\, is forthcoming January 2015 with University of Washington Press.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Exhibit: The International Year of Crystallography
DESCRIPTION:\n\nCrystallography is the branch of science concerned with the structure and properties of crystals. 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

SUMMARY:Other:Gifts of Art presents Bird Pants & Other Formal Forest Wear
DESCRIPTION:Missy Orge creates work that is evocative of scientific curiosities and mounted butterflies\, with a humor that sneaks up and inspires a closer look. Her current work focuses on birdpants and formal wear of the forest – tiny pants for birds and frogs\, and dapper suits for squirrels that “could be for backyard visitors who are fashion-forward or simply chilly in the Michigan winter.” She employs traditional craftwork such as quilting\, embroidery and beading to produce her highly detailed – and decidedly nontraditional – confections. Making Ann Arbor her home for more than 20 years\, she spends her spare time filling bird feeders in the hope that\, one day\, she can talk a songbird into modeling her creations.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Vietnamerica: Pop-Up Exhibition by GB Tran
DESCRIPTION:We are thrilled to introduce our exciting new Pop-Up exhibition series in the Osterman Common Room (#1022) featuring short (approx. 2 weeks) exhibitions of innovative\, thought-provoking work by artists from around the country. The first\, Vietnamerica\, is an exhibition of images from the author's graphic memoir of the same name\, a visually stunning portrait of survival\, escape\, and reinvention\, and of the fit of the American immigrants' dream\, passed on from immigrants to their children. In tellin his family story\, Tran finds his own place in this sage of hardship and heroism.\n\nAbout GB Tran and Vietnamerica: GB Tran is a young Vietnamese American artist who grew up distant from (and largely indifferent to) his family’s history. Born and raised in South Carolina as a son of immigrants\, he knew that his parents had fled Vietnam during the fall of Saigon. But even as they struggled to adapt to life in America\, they preferred to forget the past—and to focus on their children’s future. It was only in his late twenties that GB began to learn their extraordinary story. When his last surviving grandparents die within months of each other\, GB visits Vietnam for the first time and begins to learn the tragic history of his family\, and of the homeland they left behind.

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. Stamps School of Art & Design\, Taubman College of Architecture + Urban Planning\, and Institute for the Humanities.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Exhibition: Fred Tomaselli: The Times
DESCRIPTION:Even in our digital age of constant information\, the rhythmic cycle of the daily newspaper is still a central form of organizing the world around us. The paper’s front page records in the present tense what will eventually become history. It orients our attention to pressing actions\, be they individual\, political\, or natural\, that over time repeat and rearrange into patterns around common human motivations. Fred Tomaselli‘s The Times traffics in these patterns\, reflecting and reinventing them through complexly layered collages superimposed on recent cover stories in The New York Times. The collages surface unseen connections\, rearrange realities\, and reveal relationships of images and ideas across time and space.\n\nTomaselli uses images within the familiar grid of the front page as portals\, overwriting and manipulating the supposed objective reality of the newspaper with his completely subjective surreality. His interventions play against the detachment of journalistic forms\, inserting emotion\, fantasy\, and absurdity to counterpoint or underscore the original narrative. Tomaselli says these works “freeze time\,” trapping inherently ephemeral events and images like flies in amber. But in aggregate this act also reimagines time\, linking images and actions of a chosen day to their counterparts in the past and in some projected future.\n\nThe Times grew from Tomaselli’s own doodlings of personal commentary while reading\, eventually spurring him to marry his “news junkie” habit with his studio practice. The series runs the gamut from hard-edged abstraction to hallucinatory pattern play\, and engages in a dialogue with art historical imagery and themes\, refracted through present-day news images.\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 Department of American Culture\, Department of the History of Art\, Institute for the Humanities\, and Penny W. Stamps School of Art & Design.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Exhibition: Paramodel
DESCRIPTION:This exhibition will present Paramodel\, an art collaborative established by two contemporary Japanese artists\, Yasuhiko Hayashi (born 1971) and Yûsuke Nakano (born 1976)\, in Osaka in 2001. 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.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Exhibition: Reductive Minimalism: Women Artists in Dialogue\, 1960–2014
DESCRIPTION:Nearly fifty years after its heyday\, Minimalism is enjoying a resurgence of critical attention\, though much of the focus continues to be on male artists or on a small number of women sculptors. Reductive Minimalism: Women Artists in Dialogue\, 1960-2014 offers a fresh perspective on the movement and its evolution\, bringing together formative works from two generations of women Minimalist painters to examine and celebrate the dialogue between them.\n\nMinimalism was born in the late 1950s as a reaction to the perceived hubris and theatricality of Abstract Expressionism. But though its most prominent\, mostly male\, practitioners favored an aesthetic of clean geometry and essential forms\, the hubris remained—in oversized works with grandiose themes. Women Minimalist painters\, however\, took a more restrained or reductive approach\, one more intimate in scale\, more personal in narrative\, and more open-ended in its experimentation with pure surface\, color\, and texture.\n\nMany of these women—Agnes Martin and Mary Corse among them—worked outside the New York art world and outside the critical discourse that would have offered them support and recognition. Gender politics\, though not necessarily the impetus for their work\, played a role in the circumstances of where and how they practiced. In spite of their relative isolation\, their work had a profound influence on the current generation of women minimalist painters—including Tauba Auerbach and R.H. Quaytman—who have global exposure and who are celebrated in a varied and robust critical environment. In the gallery\, Reductive Minimalism traces the conversation between these two generations in an installation of nine pairs of paintings\, to reveal the call-and-response of their artistic symbiosis.\n\nLead support for this exhibition is provided by the University of Michigan Office of the Provost\, the University of Michigan Health System\, and the Richard and Rosann Noel Endowment Fund. Additional generous support is provided by the Susan and Richard Gutow Fund\, Elaine Pitt\, the University of Michigan CEW Frances and Sydney Lewis Visiting Leaders Fund\, Department of the History of Art\, the Katherine Tuck Enrichment Fund\, and the Doris Sloan Memorial Fund.

SUMMARY:Other:Exhibition: Suspended Moments: Photographs from the David S. Rosen Collection
DESCRIPTION:Each of the works in Suspended Moments: Photographs from the David S. Rosen Collection offers insights into an interior world\, most glimpsed from the vantage point of a child or young adult. The exhibition—featuring photographs of children at various stages\, particularly those difficult years that chart the transition from childhood to adulthood—includes images that were clearly very closely related to the research interests of the collector\, Dr. David S. Rosen. Rosen was a physician on the staff of the University of Michigan Medical School\, and a pediatrician with a specialization in adolescent medicine. He was a dedicated collector as well as a practicing photographer. In addition to Rosen’s own photographs of young adults and children\, the exhibition also features the works of other photographers known for their images of childhood\, including Sally Mann\, Dawoud Bey\, and Helen Levitt\, among others. The exhibition\, organized in tribute to Rosen as an educator and artist\, also examines the doctor’s vision as a collector\, in works by landscape and still life photographers such as Ansel Adams\, Michael Kenna\, Howard Bond\, and Billie Mercer.    \n\nLead support for this exhibition is provided by the University of Michigan Health System.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:CREES Noon Lecture
DESCRIPTION:Adrienne Edgar\, associate professor of history\, University of California\, Santa Barbara\n\nThis talk investigates identities in the Soviet Union through the lens of interethnic intimacy. Soviet authorities consistently celebrated mixed marriages as proof of the unbreakable \"friendship of nations\" and as a sign of the imminent emergence of a Soviet people. In \"backward\" regions such as predominantly Muslim Central Asia\, the communist regime saw intermarriage as a way to promote modernity and a common Soviet way of life. Nevertheless\, members of mixed families found it difficult to reconcile their multiple identities with being simply \"Soviet.\" Using archival and published materials as well as oral history testimony from three post-Soviet states\, Prof. Edgar examines both the official Soviet approach to ethnic mixing and the subjective experiences of mixed individuals and families.\n\nAdrienne Edgar is an associate professor of Russian and Central Asian history at U.C. Santa Barbara. She received her BA in Russian from Oberlin College and MA in International Affairs from Columbia University. Edgar worked as a newspaper reporter and as editor of an international affairs journal for about ten years before returning to graduate school to obtain her doctorate in Russian history (Berkeley\, 1999). She has held postdoctoral and visiting scholar appointments at Harvard\, McGill\, and the Humboldt University in Berlin. Edgar’s book\, Tribal Nation: The Making of Soviet Turkmenistan\, was published by Princeton University in 2004. She has also published numerous articles on ethnicity and gender in Soviet Central Asia\, and is currently completing a book about ethnic intermarriage in the Soviet Union.

DESCRIPTION:Faciliator Rena Seltzer is the owner of Leader Academic Coaching and Training for Professors\, University Administrators\, and Other Leaders. Rena earned both her B.S. and M.S.W. from the University of Michigan.\n\nAlthough leadership can be conferred through titles and roles\, it is incumbent upon leaders to claim their authority.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Exhibit: The International Year of Crystallography
DESCRIPTION:\n\nCrystallography is the branch of science concerned with the structure and properties of crystals. 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

SUMMARY:Other:Gifts of Art presents Bird Pants & Other Formal Forest Wear
DESCRIPTION:Missy Orge creates work that is evocative of scientific curiosities and mounted butterflies\, with a humor that sneaks up and inspires a closer look. Her current work focuses on birdpants and formal wear of the forest – tiny pants for birds and frogs\, and dapper suits for squirrels that “could be for backyard visitors who are fashion-forward or simply chilly in the Michigan winter.” She employs traditional craftwork such as quilting\, embroidery and beading to produce her highly detailed – and decidedly nontraditional – confections. Making Ann Arbor her home for more than 20 years\, she spends her spare time filling bird feeders in the hope that\, one day\, she can talk a songbird into modeling her creations.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Vietnamerica: Pop-Up Exhibition by GB Tran
DESCRIPTION:We are thrilled to introduce our exciting new Pop-Up exhibition series in the Osterman Common Room (#1022) featuring short (approx. 2 weeks) exhibitions of innovative\, thought-provoking work by artists from around the country. The first\, Vietnamerica\, is an exhibition of images from the author's graphic memoir of the same name\, a visually stunning portrait of survival\, escape\, and reinvention\, and of the fit of the American immigrants' dream\, passed on from immigrants to their children. In tellin his family story\, Tran finds his own place in this sage of hardship and heroism.\n\nAbout GB Tran and Vietnamerica: GB Tran is a young Vietnamese American artist who grew up distant from (and largely indifferent to) his family’s history. Born and raised in South Carolina as a son of immigrants\, he knew that his parents had fled Vietnam during the fall of Saigon. But even as they struggled to adapt to life in America\, they preferred to forget the past—and to focus on their children’s future. It was only in his late twenties that GB began to learn their extraordinary story. When his last surviving grandparents die within months of each other\, GB visits Vietnam for the first time and begins to learn the tragic history of his family\, and of the homeland they left behind.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:HISTORY OF CHORAL MUSIC IN THE UNITED STATES
DESCRIPTION:The musical United States of 2014 is incredibly different from the musical British colonies of 1620.  Or is it?  Basing lecture materials on the evolution of singing and choral music in the US\, we will encounter early psalm tunes brought with the Pilgrims\, the contributions of the first New England school\, the European-educated American composers of the late 19th Century\, and the 20th Century with its movement from Germanic gravitas through 12 tone austerity to neo-Romanticism and the influences of jazz\, rag\, folk music\, Broadway\, and popular songs.  Where are we now?  Where are we going?  Why do we sing?  We’ll sing\, listen to singing\, and leave with full hearts.\n\nPlease check the OLLI web site for additional lectures in the series \"American Music: How Did We Get Here?\" Thursdays\, October 30 - December 11.

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.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Exhibition: Fred Tomaselli: The Times
DESCRIPTION:Even in our digital age of constant information\, the rhythmic cycle of the daily newspaper is still a central form of organizing the world around us. The paper’s front page records in the present tense what will eventually become history. It orients our attention to pressing actions\, be they individual\, political\, or natural\, that over time repeat and rearrange into patterns around common human motivations. Fred Tomaselli‘s The Times traffics in these patterns\, reflecting and reinventing them through complexly layered collages superimposed on recent cover stories in The New York Times. The collages surface unseen connections\, rearrange realities\, and reveal relationships of images and ideas across time and space.\n\nTomaselli uses images within the familiar grid of the front page as portals\, overwriting and manipulating the supposed objective reality of the newspaper with his completely subjective surreality. His interventions play against the detachment of journalistic forms\, inserting emotion\, fantasy\, and absurdity to counterpoint or underscore the original narrative. Tomaselli says these works “freeze time\,” trapping inherently ephemeral events and images like flies in amber. But in aggregate this act also reimagines time\, linking images and actions of a chosen day to their counterparts in the past and in some projected future.\n\nThe Times grew from Tomaselli’s own doodlings of personal commentary while reading\, eventually spurring him to marry his “news junkie” habit with his studio practice. The series runs the gamut from hard-edged abstraction to hallucinatory pattern play\, and engages in a dialogue with art historical imagery and themes\, refracted through present-day news images.\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 Department of American Culture\, Department of the History of Art\, Institute for the Humanities\, and Penny W. Stamps School of Art & Design.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Exhibition: Paramodel
DESCRIPTION:This exhibition will present Paramodel\, an art collaborative established by two contemporary Japanese artists\, Yasuhiko Hayashi (born 1971) and Yûsuke Nakano (born 1976)\, in Osaka in 2001. 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.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Exhibition: Reductive Minimalism: Women Artists in Dialogue\, 1960–2014
DESCRIPTION:Nearly fifty years after its heyday\, Minimalism is enjoying a resurgence of critical attention\, though much of the focus continues to be on male artists or on a small number of women sculptors. Reductive Minimalism: Women Artists in Dialogue\, 1960-2014 offers a fresh perspective on the movement and its evolution\, bringing together formative works from two generations of women Minimalist painters to examine and celebrate the dialogue between them.\n\nMinimalism was born in the late 1950s as a reaction to the perceived hubris and theatricality of Abstract Expressionism. But though its most prominent\, mostly male\, practitioners favored an aesthetic of clean geometry and essential forms\, the hubris remained—in oversized works with grandiose themes. Women Minimalist painters\, however\, took a more restrained or reductive approach\, one more intimate in scale\, more personal in narrative\, and more open-ended in its experimentation with pure surface\, color\, and texture.\n\nMany of these women—Agnes Martin and Mary Corse among them—worked outside the New York art world and outside the critical discourse that would have offered them support and recognition. Gender politics\, though not necessarily the impetus for their work\, played a role in the circumstances of where and how they practiced. In spite of their relative isolation\, their work had a profound influence on the current generation of women minimalist painters—including Tauba Auerbach and R.H. Quaytman—who have global exposure and who are celebrated in a varied and robust critical environment. In the gallery\, Reductive Minimalism traces the conversation between these two generations in an installation of nine pairs of paintings\, to reveal the call-and-response of their artistic symbiosis.\n\nLead support for this exhibition is provided by the University of Michigan Office of the Provost\, the University of Michigan Health System\, and the Richard and Rosann Noel Endowment Fund. Additional generous support is provided by the Susan and Richard Gutow Fund\, Elaine Pitt\, the University of Michigan CEW Frances and Sydney Lewis Visiting Leaders Fund\, Department of the History of Art\, the Katherine Tuck Enrichment Fund\, and the Doris Sloan Memorial Fund.

SUMMARY:Other:Exhibition: Suspended Moments: Photographs from the David S. Rosen Collection
DESCRIPTION:Each of the works in Suspended Moments: Photographs from the David S. Rosen Collection offers insights into an interior world\, most glimpsed from the vantage point of a child or young adult. The exhibition—featuring photographs of children at various stages\, particularly those difficult years that chart the transition from childhood to adulthood—includes images that were clearly very closely related to the research interests of the collector\, Dr. David S. Rosen. Rosen was a physician on the staff of the University of Michigan Medical School\, and a pediatrician with a specialization in adolescent medicine. He was a dedicated collector as well as a practicing photographer. In addition to Rosen’s own photographs of young adults and children\, the exhibition also features the works of other photographers known for their images of childhood\, including Sally Mann\, Dawoud Bey\, and Helen Levitt\, among others. The exhibition\, organized in tribute to Rosen as an educator and artist\, also examines the doctor’s vision as a collector\, in works by landscape and still life photographers such as Ansel Adams\, Michael Kenna\, Howard Bond\, and Billie Mercer.    \n\nLead support for this exhibition is provided by the University of Michigan Health System.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:International Law Workshop/Conversations on Europe
DESCRIPTION:Hon. Allan Rosas\, judge\, Court of Justice of the European Union\n\nAnti-terrorism measures frequently come into conflict with fundamental rights guarantees. In a series of recent landmark judgments\, the European Court of Justice has reviewed and\, on occasion\, struck down\, the enforcement of such measures—even those ordered by the United Nations Security Council—for failure to comply with basic constitutional guarantees. Judge Rosas\, a sitting member of that court and a scholar of human rights law\, will discuss the significance of these decisions\, and what they mean for reconciling anti-terrorism efforts with basic requirements of the rule of law in Europe.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:CJS Noon Lecture Series
DESCRIPTION:Speaker: David Antoine Malinas\, Associate Professor\, East Asian Studies\, Paris Diderot – Paris 7 University\n\nAssociate Professor at Paris-Diderot University in the Department of East Asian Studies\, David A. Malinas is researching poverty and social movements in contemporary Japan. He is the author of Homeless Social Movement in Japan and the Rebirth of Disruptive Civil Society in Japan (in French\, 2011) and co-editor of Japan at the Beginning of the XXIst Century (in French\, forthcoming).\n\nAbstract: The mobilization of Japanese youth has been a recent but decisive factor in strengthening the anti-poverty movement in Japan\, which is one of the major Japanese social movements. It triggered major juridical reforms\, such as the public assistance law or the temporary workers law. However\, little is known about these young people.\n\nBy joining the Tokyo Youth Union\, one of the major organizations that support the mobilization of young people\, I gathered both qualitative and quantitative data regarding its members. I will present new findings concerning the characteristics of these young people and the process that leads to their mobilization.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:EEB Thursday Seminar Series
DESCRIPTION:In January 2014\, the Departments of Physics\, Chemistry\, Mathematics\, EEB\, and MCDB all came together to create a new system of support for evidence-based teaching in our introductory courses. Seeded by a three-year NSF grant\, the REBUILD project (Researching Evidence Based Undergraduate Instructional and Learning Developments) brings together a dozen senior faculty and a large group of postdoctoral fellows\, graduate students\, and undergraduate students. Instructional teams in each department are analyzing data about prior student performance\, investigating new methods for engaged learning\, and supporting instructors working to improve their courses. To make sure everyone remains involved in this process\, members of the REBUILD committee will be delivering colloquia in all five departments once a semester for the next several years. This inaugural REBUILD colloquium will begin with an introduction to the project\, followed by some details of the work going on in the Department of Ecology and Evolutionary Biology.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:Human Rights Initiative Distinguished Lecture with Michael Ignatieff
DESCRIPTION:A new type of regime is challenging the authority and legitimacy of international human rights: authoritarian capitalism in Russia\, China\, and the states that have adopted their form of rule. These regimes allow private freedom\, while repressing public liberty\, and this is what makes them stable. How do believers in human rights\, who insist that freedom is indivisible\, respond to the challenge of these new forms of tyranny?\n\nMichael Ignatieff is a writer\, teacher and former politician. Born in Canada\, educated at the University of Toronto and Harvard University\, he has written 17 books\, worked as a television presenter and documentary filmmaker\, editorial columnist and university teacher. He has taught at the University of British Columbia\, Cambridge University\, the London School of Economics and Harvard University\, where he was Director of the Carr Center for Human Rights Policy at the Kennedy School of Government between 2000 and 2005. He is a member of the Queen’s Privy Council for Canada and holds eleven honorary degrees. He is the author of The Needs of Strangers\, (1984)\, Scar Tissue (1992)\, Isaiah Berlin (1998) The Rights Revolution (2000) Human Rights as Politics and Idolatry (2001)\, The Lesser Evil: Political Ethics in an Age of Terror (2004)\, and True Patriot Love (2009). Between 2006 and 2011\, he was Member of Parliament for Etobicoke Lakeshore\, Deputy Leader and Leader of the Liberal Party in Canada.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:Lecture: “'Talents Committed to Your Care’: Reading and Writing Radical Abolitionism in Antebellum America\,” Mary C. Kelley\, University of Michigan
DESCRIPTION:Abstract: Through an analysis of words and images as they move through the world of material production\, circulation\, and reception\, “Talents Committed to Your Care” explores the literary and pictorial practices of African American women who read and wrote antislavery at sites ranging from oral to scribal to print. Scholars have focused on these antebellum Philadelphians’ texts as they have appeared in print. Today Professor Kelley will expand the lens and look as well at the equally important oral and scribal forms in which they were disseminated. As printed words and images increased in number and extended their reach in the nineteenth century\, they commingled with other modes that remained crucial in the construction of individual identity and discursive communities engaged in social and moral reform.\n\nMary C. Kelley is the Ruth Bordin Collegiate Professor of History\, American Culture\, and Women's Studies at the University of Michigan. A former member of the Board of Trustees at Mount Holyoke College\, Kelley has also served as a trustee for the American Antiquarian Society. Elected to the American Academy of Arts and Sciences in 2014\, Kelley has held the Times-Mirror Chair at the Huntington Library and has received fellowships from the National Endowment for the Humanities\, the Rockefeller Foundation\, and the Massachusetts Historical Society. Kelley is the author\, co-author\, and editor of eight books. Most recently\, she published Learning to Stand and Speak: Women\, Education\, and Public Life (2006). She is currently at work on “What Are You Reading\, What Are You Saying?” a book that takes as its subject reading and writing practices from the American Revolution to the Civil War.\n\nFree and open to the public.\n\nThis lecture is part of the Thursday Series of the Eisenberg Institute for Historical Studies. It is made possible by a generous contribution from Kenneth and Frances Aftel Eisenberg.

SUMMARY:Performance:Michael McDermott
DESCRIPTION:Michael McDermott’s brand of rock n’ roll brims with the kind of well-honed style and wisdom that can only come from a career on the road and a pedigree in the studio. Effortlessly blending natural folk sensibility\, pop hooks\, and honest rock\, McDermott’s music is as much for the outcast as the congregation. It’s an exploration of the dark corners of life’s journey and it resonates middle class truths through the passionate filter of a kid that grew up on Chicago’s Irish South Side.\n\nIf you are a fan of Springsteen\, Van Morrison\, John Steinbeck\, Patti Smith … McDermott’s inspirational rock is in your wheelhouse\, waiting late night with a guitar\, spare smokes and stories of the American heart. \n\n“McDermott’s music helped me to find a part of myself that wasn’t lost\, as I had feared\, but only misplaced. That’s why we love the ones who are really good at it\, I think: because they give us back ourselves\, all dusted and shined up\, and they do it with a smile…Michael McDermott is one of the best songwriters in the world and possibly the greatest undiscovered rock & roll talent of the last 20 years” -Stephen King

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Exhibit: The International Year of Crystallography
DESCRIPTION:\n\nCrystallography is the branch of science concerned with the structure and properties of crystals. 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

SUMMARY:Other:Gifts of Art presents Bird Pants & Other Formal Forest Wear
DESCRIPTION:Missy Orge creates work that is evocative of scientific curiosities and mounted butterflies\, with a humor that sneaks up and inspires a closer look. Her current work focuses on birdpants and formal wear of the forest – tiny pants for birds and frogs\, and dapper suits for squirrels that “could be for backyard visitors who are fashion-forward or simply chilly in the Michigan winter.” She employs traditional craftwork such as quilting\, embroidery and beading to produce her highly detailed – and decidedly nontraditional – confections. Making Ann Arbor her home for more than 20 years\, she spends her spare time filling bird feeders in the hope that\, one day\, she can talk a songbird into modeling her creations.

DESCRIPTION:After a forty-year career as a clinical psychologist\, Lansing\, Michigan artist Arnold Berkman retired in order to pursue a career as a fine arts photographer. Berkman's photography has a painterly quality due to his use of light. True to the definition of photography\, he sees his work as writing\, drawing or painting with light\, transforming the elements of subject\, color and shape into compositions.

DESCRIPTION:We are thrilled to introduce our exciting new Pop-Up exhibition series in the Osterman Common Room (#1022) featuring short (approx. 2 weeks) exhibitions of innovative\, thought-provoking work by artists from around the country. The first\, Vietnamerica\, is an exhibition of images from the author's graphic memoir of the same name\, a visually stunning portrait of survival\, escape\, and reinvention\, and of the fit of the American immigrants' dream\, passed on from immigrants to their children. In tellin his family story\, Tran finds his own place in this sage of hardship and heroism.\n\nAbout GB Tran and Vietnamerica: GB Tran is a young Vietnamese American artist who grew up distant from (and largely indifferent to) his family’s history. Born and raised in South Carolina as a son of immigrants\, he knew that his parents had fled Vietnam during the fall of Saigon. But even as they struggled to adapt to life in America\, they preferred to forget the past—and to focus on their children’s future. It was only in his late twenties that GB began to learn their extraordinary story. When his last surviving grandparents die within months of each other\, GB visits Vietnam for the first time and begins to learn the tragic history of his family\, and of the homeland they left behind.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:Hal Korn - Is making it to college enough
DESCRIPTION:Is making it to college enough? \nMasculinities\, stress\, and success among black college men\n(additional description below)\n\nDaphne C. Watkins\, PhD \nAsst. Professor in Social Work and Psychiatry\,\nFaculty Associate\, Research Center for Group Dynamics\, \nInstitute for Social Research\n\nContinuing Education credits for Social Workers are available\; light refreshments will be provided.  FREE!\n\nAbstract:\nCollege-aged black men experience higher levels of psychological distress due to their exposure to a greater frequency and severity of stress compared to other groups. For example\, for more than a decade\, mental health professionals have been concerned about the disproportionate increase in suicide among adolescent and young adult black males\, because males account for 80% of the suicides among blacks. \n\nThe frequency and severity of psychosocial stressors are exacerbated by other socio-demographic factors (i.e.\, age\, household income\, marital status\, education level) that can influence the emotional and psychological health of black men. Likewise\, studies have chronicled the psychological distress of young black men as a result of discrimination\, negative attitudes toward the criminal justice system\, racial and cultural identity\, depression\, violence\, and issues involving their masculine gender norms. Research on black men in college is conflicting\, as many studies underscore the benefits of educational achievement\, while others focus on the challenges associated with gaining social capital and “upward mobility.” \n\nIn this presentation\, Professor Daphne C. Watkins (UM Social Work and Psychiatry) will discuss her research on young black men\, masculinities\, and how this influences their stress and ability to succeed.  She will also discuss future directions in this area\, such as her new Young black men\, masculinities\, and mental health (YBMen) project.

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. Stamps School of Art & Design\, Taubman College of Architecture + Urban Planning\, and Institute for the Humanities.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Exhibition: Fred Tomaselli: The Times
DESCRIPTION:Even in our digital age of constant information\, the rhythmic cycle of the daily newspaper is still a central form of organizing the world around us. The paper’s front page records in the present tense what will eventually become history. It orients our attention to pressing actions\, be they individual\, political\, or natural\, that over time repeat and rearrange into patterns around common human motivations. Fred Tomaselli‘s The Times traffics in these patterns\, reflecting and reinventing them through complexly layered collages superimposed on recent cover stories in The New York Times. The collages surface unseen connections\, rearrange realities\, and reveal relationships of images and ideas across time and space.\n\nTomaselli uses images within the familiar grid of the front page as portals\, overwriting and manipulating the supposed objective reality of the newspaper with his completely subjective surreality. His interventions play against the detachment of journalistic forms\, inserting emotion\, fantasy\, and absurdity to counterpoint or underscore the original narrative. Tomaselli says these works “freeze time\,” trapping inherently ephemeral events and images like flies in amber. But in aggregate this act also reimagines time\, linking images and actions of a chosen day to their counterparts in the past and in some projected future.\n\nThe Times grew from Tomaselli’s own doodlings of personal commentary while reading\, eventually spurring him to marry his “news junkie” habit with his studio practice. The series runs the gamut from hard-edged abstraction to hallucinatory pattern play\, and engages in a dialogue with art historical imagery and themes\, refracted through present-day news images.\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 Department of American Culture\, Department of the History of Art\, Institute for the Humanities\, and Penny W. Stamps School of Art & Design.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Exhibition: Paramodel
DESCRIPTION:This exhibition will present Paramodel\, an art collaborative established by two contemporary Japanese artists\, Yasuhiko Hayashi (born 1971) and Yûsuke Nakano (born 1976)\, in Osaka in 2001. 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.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Exhibition: Reductive Minimalism: Women Artists in Dialogue\, 1960–2014
DESCRIPTION:Nearly fifty years after its heyday\, Minimalism is enjoying a resurgence of critical attention\, though much of the focus continues to be on male artists or on a small number of women sculptors. Reductive Minimalism: Women Artists in Dialogue\, 1960-2014 offers a fresh perspective on the movement and its evolution\, bringing together formative works from two generations of women Minimalist painters to examine and celebrate the dialogue between them.\n\nMinimalism was born in the late 1950s as a reaction to the perceived hubris and theatricality of Abstract Expressionism. But though its most prominent\, mostly male\, practitioners favored an aesthetic of clean geometry and essential forms\, the hubris remained—in oversized works with grandiose themes. Women Minimalist painters\, however\, took a more restrained or reductive approach\, one more intimate in scale\, more personal in narrative\, and more open-ended in its experimentation with pure surface\, color\, and texture.\n\nMany of these women—Agnes Martin and Mary Corse among them—worked outside the New York art world and outside the critical discourse that would have offered them support and recognition. Gender politics\, though not necessarily the impetus for their work\, played a role in the circumstances of where and how they practiced. In spite of their relative isolation\, their work had a profound influence on the current generation of women minimalist painters—including Tauba Auerbach and R.H. Quaytman—who have global exposure and who are celebrated in a varied and robust critical environment. In the gallery\, Reductive Minimalism traces the conversation between these two generations in an installation of nine pairs of paintings\, to reveal the call-and-response of their artistic symbiosis.\n\nLead support for this exhibition is provided by the University of Michigan Office of the Provost\, the University of Michigan Health System\, and the Richard and Rosann Noel Endowment Fund. Additional generous support is provided by the Susan and Richard Gutow Fund\, Elaine Pitt\, the University of Michigan CEW Frances and Sydney Lewis Visiting Leaders Fund\, Department of the History of Art\, the Katherine Tuck Enrichment Fund\, and the Doris Sloan Memorial Fund.

SUMMARY:Other:Exhibition: Suspended Moments: Photographs from the David S. Rosen Collection
DESCRIPTION:Each of the works in Suspended Moments: Photographs from the David S. Rosen Collection offers insights into an interior world\, most glimpsed from the vantage point of a child or young adult. The exhibition—featuring photographs of children at various stages\, particularly those difficult years that chart the transition from childhood to adulthood—includes images that were clearly very closely related to the research interests of the collector\, Dr. David S. Rosen. Rosen was a physician on the staff of the University of Michigan Medical School\, and a pediatrician with a specialization in adolescent medicine. He was a dedicated collector as well as a practicing photographer. In addition to Rosen’s own photographs of young adults and children\, the exhibition also features the works of other photographers known for their images of childhood\, including Sally Mann\, Dawoud Bey\, and Helen Levitt\, among others. The exhibition\, organized in tribute to Rosen as an educator and artist\, also examines the doctor’s vision as a collector\, in works by landscape and still life photographers such as Ansel Adams\, Michael Kenna\, Howard Bond\, and Billie Mercer.    \n\nLead support for this exhibition is provided by the University of Michigan Health System.

On World AIDS Day (2011)\, The BDP premiered the sound of a feeling\, a YouTube dance for the camera commemorating the first reported cases of HIV/AIDS in the United States.    As an independent dance-maker\, Brown’s choreographies have been performed in South Africa\, Europe\, and nationally by concert dance companies\, university/college and community programs. His work has garnered commendation from the Ohio Dance Council\, American College Dance Festival\, and the National Society of Arts and Letters. Brown is a native Daytonian and former member of the Dayton Contemporary Dance Company (DCDC). His most recent ballet The Gatherer / weething (2012)\, continues a 15 year affiliation with DCDC.    Brown has taught at University of Michigan\, Spelman College\, Kentucky Governors’ School for the Arts\, and most recently as Artistic Director of Dance at Santa Fe College.

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.

SUMMARY:Performance:Chris Smither
DESCRIPTION:Honing a synthesis of folk and blues for 50 years\, Chris Smither is truly an American original. Having released a series of timeless records since the early 1970s\, Chris' newest release\, Still On the Levee (release date: July 22\, 2014)\, is a career-spanning retrospective double CD. Recorded in New Orleans with studio-mates he calls The Motivators\, Still On the Levee plays host to special guests including Allen Toussaint and Loudon Wainwright III. The record highlights the vast catalog of an American music master. Reviewers and fans from around the world agree that Chris is a profound songwriter\, a blistering guitarist and\, as he puts it\, a 'one-man band to the bone.' Chris melds the styles of his two major influences\, Lightnin' Hopkins and Mississippi John Hurt\, into his own signature guitar sound. His music continues to draw deeply from the blues\, American folk music\, modern poets and humanist philosophers. He may be best known for writing \"Love You Like A Man\" which Bonnie Raitt and\, more recently\, jazz great Diana Krall have covered. His music has been covered by numerous artists and featured in soundtrack albums\, independent film\, television and commercials.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Exhibit: The International Year of Crystallography
DESCRIPTION:\n\nCrystallography is the branch of science concerned with the structure and properties of crystals. 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

DESCRIPTION:Missy Orge creates work that is evocative of scientific curiosities and mounted butterflies\, with a humor that sneaks up and inspires a closer look. Her current work focuses on birdpants and formal wear of the forest – tiny pants for birds and frogs\, and dapper suits for squirrels that “could be for backyard visitors who are fashion-forward or simply chilly in the Michigan winter.” She employs traditional craftwork such as quilting\, embroidery and beading to produce her highly detailed – and decidedly nontraditional – confections. Making Ann Arbor her home for more than 20 years\, she spends her spare time filling bird feeders in the hope that\, one day\, she can talk a songbird into modeling her creations.

Berkman's photography has a painterly quality due to his use of light.

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. Stamps School of Art & Design\, Taubman College of Architecture + Urban Planning\, and Institute for the Humanities.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Exhibition: Fred Tomaselli: The Times
DESCRIPTION:Even in our digital age of constant information\, the rhythmic cycle of the daily newspaper is still a central form of organizing the world around us. The paper’s front page records in the present tense what will eventually become history. It orients our attention to pressing actions\, be they individual\, political\, or natural\, that over time repeat and rearrange into patterns around common human motivations. Fred Tomaselli‘s The Times traffics in these patterns\, reflecting and reinventing them through complexly layered collages superimposed on recent cover stories in The New York Times. The collages surface unseen connections\, rearrange realities\, and reveal relationships of images and ideas across time and space.\n\nTomaselli uses images within the familiar grid of the front page as portals\, overwriting and manipulating the supposed objective reality of the newspaper with his completely subjective surreality. His interventions play against the detachment of journalistic forms\, inserting emotion\, fantasy\, and absurdity to counterpoint or underscore the original narrative. Tomaselli says these works “freeze time\,” trapping inherently ephemeral events and images like flies in amber. But in aggregate this act also reimagines time\, linking images and actions of a chosen day to their counterparts in the past and in some projected future.\n\nThe Times grew from Tomaselli’s own doodlings of personal commentary while reading\, eventually spurring him to marry his “news junkie” habit with his studio practice. The series runs the gamut from hard-edged abstraction to hallucinatory pattern play\, and engages in a dialogue with art historical imagery and themes\, refracted through present-day news images.\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 Department of American Culture\, Department of the History of Art\, Institute for the Humanities\, and Penny W.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Exhibition: Paramodel
DESCRIPTION:This exhibition will present Paramodel\, an art collaborative established by two contemporary Japanese artists\, Yasuhiko Hayashi (born 1971) and Yûsuke Nakano (born 1976)\, in Osaka in 2001. 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.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Exhibition: Reductive Minimalism: Women Artists in Dialogue\, 1960–2014
DESCRIPTION:Nearly fifty years after its heyday\, Minimalism is enjoying a resurgence of critical attention\, though much of the focus continues to be on male artists or on a small number of women sculptors. Reductive Minimalism: Women Artists in Dialogue\, 1960-2014 offers a fresh perspective on the movement and its evolution\, bringing together formative works from two generations of women Minimalist painters to examine and celebrate the dialogue between them.\n\nMinimalism was born in the late 1950s as a reaction to the perceived hubris and theatricality of Abstract Expressionism. But though its most prominent\, mostly male\, practitioners favored an aesthetic of clean geometry and essential forms\, the hubris remained—in oversized works with grandiose themes. Women Minimalist painters\, however\, took a more restrained or reductive approach\, one more intimate in scale\, more personal in narrative\, and more open-ended in its experimentation with pure surface\, color\, and texture.\n\nMany of these women—Agnes Martin and Mary Corse among them—worked outside the New York art world and outside the critical discourse that would have offered them support and recognition. Gender politics\, though not necessarily the impetus for their work\, played a role in the circumstances of where and how they practiced. In spite of their relative isolation\, their work had a profound influence on the current generation of women minimalist painters—including Tauba Auerbach and R.H. Quaytman—who have global exposure and who are celebrated in a varied and robust critical environment. In the gallery\, Reductive Minimalism traces the conversation between these two generations in an installation of nine pairs of paintings\, to reveal the call-and-response of their artistic symbiosis.\n\nLead support for this exhibition is provided by the University of Michigan Office of the Provost\, the University of Michigan Health System\, and the Richard and Rosann Noel Endowment Fund. Additional generous support is provided by the Susan and Richard Gutow Fund\, Elaine Pitt\, the University of Michigan CEW Frances and Sydney Lewis Visiting Leaders Fund\, Department of the History of Art\, the Katherine Tuck Enrichment Fund\, and the Doris Sloan Memorial Fund.

SUMMARY:Other:Exhibition: Suspended Moments: Photographs from the David S. Rosen Collection
DESCRIPTION:Each of the works in Suspended Moments: Photographs from the David S. Rosen Collection offers insights into an interior world\, most glimpsed from the vantage point of a child or young adult. The exhibition—featuring photographs of children at various stages\, particularly those difficult years that chart the transition from childhood to adulthood—includes images that were clearly very closely related to the research interests of the collector\, Dr. David S. Rosen. Rosen was a physician on the staff of the University of Michigan Medical School\, and a pediatrician with a specialization in adolescent medicine. He was a dedicated collector as well as a practicing photographer. In addition to Rosen’s own photographs of young adults and children\, the exhibition also features the works of other photographers known for their images of childhood\, including Sally Mann\, Dawoud Bey\, and Helen Levitt\, among others. The exhibition\, organized in tribute to Rosen as an educator and artist\, also examines the doctor’s vision as a collector\, in works by landscape and still life photographers such as Ansel Adams\, Michael Kenna\, Howard Bond\, and Billie Mercer.    \n\nLead support for this exhibition is provided by the University of Michigan Health System.
