DESCRIPTION:Returning Gifts of Art exhibiting artist Mary Cody designs colorful jewelry with a subtle message meant to inspire creativity and hope. She freely combines tiny 24 kt gold\, palladium and glass beads in her original weavings by \"picking up the pieces\,\" a look that came by accident after costly beads scattered across the floor. Cody sees her work as representing the lessons in our lives – how unforeseen events are often prior to beautiful blessings. Her bead woven jewelry has been in fine art shows from Ann Arbor\, Michigan to Bellevue\, Washington and has been described as miniature works of stained glass.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Gifts of Art presents The Color of U-M Sports: Helicopter Photography
DESCRIPTION:As perhaps the world’s only artist-photographer who works primarily from a helicopter\, Dale Fisher captures and transforms his subjects using color\, light and shadows – all while skimming over his subjects at ground speeds of up to 120 miles per hour. In the US Navy\, he began shooting with a camera from the skies as an aerial reconnaissance photographer. In the ‘60s\, Fisher traveled the country in a Ford pickup truck with a camper top darkroom\, towing a rather lengthy trailer with his helicopter. Now working in the digital format\, Fisher currently resides and has his studio on a 200 year old farm in Grass Lake\, Michigan\, and his work can be found in public and private collections across the country.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Gifts of Art presents The Spirit of Place: Oil Paintings
DESCRIPTION:A full time painter\, Laurie Schirmer Carpenter studied art at the University of Colorado\, Denver but has deep ties to the Midwest. She has developed a special interest in the land and skies of this region\, which are often depicted in her paintings. While her paintings are of particular places or things in nature\, they are paintings first – ideas made visual. Most of them result from sketches\, en plein air paintings and photographs made during a walk or bike ride through the countryside. Using these references\, she creates the paintings in her studio that are often a composite of several places. Her oil paintings can be found in many private and corporate collections.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Exhibit: Women in Science
DESCRIPTION:Colorful comic book graphics in this panel exhibit invite young U-M Museum of Natural History visitors from every background to see themselves working in STEM fields (Science\, Technology\, Engineering\, and Mathematics)\, and changing the world.\n\nDeveloped by Ann Marie Macara\, a fifth-year graduate student in the U-M Department of Molecular\, Cellular\, and Developmental Biology\, the exhibit features four women scientists whose work had a major impact in their fields. These women persevered against the odds and are powerful role models who continue to inspire young women to follow in their footsteps in STEM.\n\nMary Anning represents Science for her discoveries of fossils from the Jurassic period. Annie Easley personifies Technology as one of the few African-American computer scientists to work at NASA (then NACA) as a ‘human computer’ and who then developed software for rockets. Sarah Goode stands for Engineering as the first African-American woman to receive a US patent for her invention of the folding cabinet bed. Finally\, Wang Zhenyi exemplifies Mathematics for her mathematical models of astronomical events\, including eclipses. \n  \nThe exhibit was made possible through the support of the U-M Life Sciences Institute\; a MAAS Professional Development Award\; the Program in Biomedical Science\; the Department of Molecular\, Cellular\, and Developmental Biology\; the Women in Science and Engineering Program\; and FEMMES (Females Engaged in More Math\, Engineering and the Sciences).

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Ally Development Training
DESCRIPTION:The LGBTQ Ally Development Training Program\, started in 2005\, seeks to empower members of the University community to be active allies to LGBTQ people. More than just a Safe Space program\, the Ally Development Training uses a social justice framework to guide participants through a curriculum that bridges knowledge of developmental theory to the lived experiences of LGBTQ and Ally-identified people. \n\nThrough active engagement in the training\, participants will grow in their personal awareness\, knowledge\, skills and actions related to development as an LGBTQ Ally. \n\nThis session will differ from some of the others that we have offered in the past as this session will put a strong emphasis and focus on thinking about gender\, gender identity\, and gender expression to kick off the national celebration of Transgender Awareness Week. The purpose of having the Ally Development Training is to promote a campus community in which everyone is treated with respect and dignity\, especially as we think about those who identify as Transgender\, gender non-conforming\, gender non-binary\, express beyond of masculinity or femininity\, etc\, etc

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Come as You Are: Art of the 1990s
DESCRIPTION:Come as You Are: Art of the 1990s\, the first major museum survey to examine the art of this pivotal decade in its historical context\, showcases over 64 works by 46 artists born or practicing in the United States. The exhibition\, whose title references the 1992 Nirvana song (considered by many an anthem for the decade)\, focuses on three principal themes—debates over “identity politics\,” the digital revolution\, and globalization—and explores a range of geopolitical milestones and social issues through the perspective of artists working at that time. The exhibition also illustrates the diverse ways in which the developments of the 1990s redefined contemporary approaches to artistic practice and\, in the words of exhibition curator Alexandra Schwartz\, “writes a history of the ’90s through the lens of the visual arts.”\n\nCome as You Are looks at the dramatic changes in the art world itself\, including the ongoing culture wars\; issues of artistic freedom and censorship\; the impact of new media and the emergence of video\, sound\, and digital art\; the expansion of the global art market\; and the explosion of art fairs and biennials. It also investigates the art world’s increasing heterogeneity as artists of color\, women artists\, and LGBT artists attained increased prominence. Artists include Doug Aitken\, Felix Gonzalez-Torres\, Glenn Ligon\, Julie Mehretu\, Prema Murthy\, Shirin Neshat\, Catherine Opie\, Gabriel Orozco\, Diana Thater\, Rirkrit Tiravanija\, and Kara Walker in a wide range of works including installations\, paintings\, sculptures\, drawings\, prints\, photography\, video\, and digital art.\n\nCome as You Are: Art of the 1990s is organized by the Montclair Art Museum and curated by Alexandra Schwartz\, curator of contemporary art\, with Kimberly Siino\, curatorial assistant. This exhibition is made possible with generous support from The Andy Warhol Foundation for the Visual Arts.\n\nLead support for this exhibition is provided by the University of Michigan Office of the Provost and the University of Michigan Health System. Additional support is provided by Samantha and Ross Partrich\, Andrea and Joel Brown\, the University of Michigan CEW Frances and Sydney Lewis Visiting Leaders Fund\, Department of the History of Art\, Residential College\, and Department of American Culture.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Jem Cohen
DESCRIPTION:The title of this multi-format photography and video installation by New York filmmaker Jem Cohen comes from the artist’s own characterization of his practice.\n	As he explains\, “The unifying core of my work stems from encountering the world as it unfolds. Whether the project is long- or short-term\, moving image or still photography\, single pictures\, multiple projections\, or an installation\, it is through close observation\, careful listening\, and an embrace of chance that I establish the bedrock. . . . Regardless of the tools and the form\, the project is . . . life drawing.”\n	\nThe dual-gallery presentation of Life Drawing at UMMA underscores Cohen’s use of disparate media that\, rooted in a shared set of concerns and working methods\, organically coalesce into a broader body of work.\n	We Have an Anchor\, on view in the Media Gallery\, is a single-channel video projection that incorporates composited 16mm\, Super 8\, and HD imagery. An environmental portrait of Nova Scotia\, it takes its departure point from a live performance with multiple projections where Cohen collaborated with an ensemble of musicians to make what has been described as a cinematic love letter to Nova Scotia's Cape Breton. Footage of the island\, gathered over 10 years\, is interspersed with texts ranging from poems to local folklore\, buoyed by both environmental sounds and an original score written and performed by members from a diverse group of bands\, including Godspeed You! Black Emperor\, Dirty Three\, Fugazi\, White Magic\, Silver Mt. Zion\, and The Quavers.\n	\nIn the Photography Gallery\, more than 25 still photographs\, again gathered over a long period in a disappearing analog format (in this case\, Polaroid film)\, are subtly married to digital technology. The images\, some urban and some domestic\, are from a variety of locations ranging from New York to Tangier. With both the video and the photographs Cohen uses a strategy of free wandering conjoined with careful documentation in order to unearth and celebrate hidden\, seemingly haunted geographies and their human (and animal) inhabitants.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Soviet Constructivist Posters
DESCRIPTION:During the 1920s the Soviet Union emerged on the world stage. The first decade was full of hope for a new social order that would reject the values and traditions of Tsarist rule. Centered in Moscow\, a group of young artists\, spearheaded in part by Vladimir (1899-1982) and Georgy Stenberg (1900-1933)\, championed an art that promoted the egalitarian ideals of the New Order and contributed to the growth of the Soviet Union. Known as the Constructivists\, they advocated for utilitarian art that was easily accessible and spoke to the masses. Among their most provocative and visionary works were posters advertising Soviet films.\n\n	UMMA’s exhibition\, Soviet Constructivist Posters: Branding the New Order features a selection of posters by the Stenbergs and other Constructivists for some of early cinema’s most inventive films including\, Sergei Eisenstein’sOctober and Dziga Vertov’s Man with a Movie Camera.\n\n	Using dynamic compositions\, bold colors\, and emblematic images\, these posters announced that the Soviet Union was a progressive nation that could propel society into a utopian future. Their revolutionary aesthetic became associated with the workers’ movement and helped to shape how it was understood both at home and abroad. Though Constructivism went out of favor in the 1930s with the rise of Joseph Stalin (1878–1953)\, Constructivist designs continued to have an influence abroad. Today\, their legacy can be seen in advertisements and other promotional materials made for the public eye.\n\n	Lead support for this exhibition is provided by the University of Michigan Weiser Center for Emerging Democracies and the Center for Russian\, East European\, and Eurasian Studies.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:The Art of Tyree Guyton: A Thirty-Year Journey
DESCRIPTION:The Heidelberg Project is one of the largest\, best-known\, and longest-running site-specific art installations in the country. Occupying more than two blocks along Heidelberg Street on Detroit’s East Side\, the project has transformed its neighborhood\, covering abandoned houses\, the street\, and the surrounding area with collections of found objects and vividly rendered paintings.\n\nCelebrating its 30th anniversary in 2016\, the Heidelberg Project has been the life’s work of artist Tyree Guyton. Guyton grew up on Heidelberg Street\, and was encouraged by his housepainter grandfather to choose art as an alternative to drugs and guns. Guyton began the project with his family\, and with the help of neighborhood children\, they gathered discarded objects\, from toys and clothes to televisions and furniture. They painted abandoned houses on the street with bright housepaints and attached objects to the exteriors\, turning them into gigantic assemblage sculptures.\n\nMost of the houses have a defined theme. The Baby Doll House (now destroyed) was covered from roof to foundation with discarded toy dolls in various states of repair. Similarly\, the Clock House has painted renditions of clocks covering its exterior. The project’s lively and unexpected juxtapositions of objects\, words\, colors\, and symbols create a strange and wonderful immersive world.\n\nThe 30-year anniversary of the Heidelberg Project is a moment for Guyton\, and his audience\, to reflect on what his work has meant to the cultural life of Detroit and beyond. Guyton has created two new works specifically for this exhibition\, one in the studio and one in the project. How Much for the City\, a mixed-media sculpture\, makes reference to his long-standing struggles with city government. On Heidelberg Street\, he is building a full-scale house\; it will rise on the foundation of a house destroyed by arson. The process of its construction can be viewed on the Heidelberg Television monitor in the gallery. The Art of Tyree Guyton will explore the artist’s involvement with the project through the decades\, and also feature a selection of prints and drawings from his more recent studio work.\n\nLead support for this exhibition is provided by the Michigan Council for Arts and Cultural Affairs and the National Endowment for the Arts\, the Andy Warhol Foundation for the Visual Arts\, and Lisa Applebaum. Additional generous support is provided by the University of Michigan Taubman College of Architecture and Urban Planning and School of Social Work.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Passionate Curiosities: Collecting in Egypt & the Near East\, 1880s–1950s
DESCRIPTION:What circumstances formed the artifact-biographies of the collected objects we see in museum display cases? Passionate Curiosities\, curated by Margaret Root\, invites visitors to meet some of the remarkable people—from eminent scientists to missionaries\, from consuls to entrepreneurs\, from scholars to swash-buckling adventurers—who forged the Egyptian and Near Eastern collections of the Kelsey Museum between the 1880s and the 1950s. \n\nThe featured notables all have ties to the State of Michigan and often to the University itself. They include Samuel A. Goudsmit\, co-discoverer of the spin of the electron in 1925\; Harriet Conner\, an unsung missionary in 1880s Cairo\; Henry Gillman\, American consul in Jerusalem in the 1880s\; Dr. David Askren\, an American physician living in Egypt who facilitated massive purchases for Professor Francis W. Kelsey\; and A. M. Todd of Kalamazoo\, a chemist\, global entrepreneur\, and utopian thinker who marketed his distilled mint products across the world at the turn of the last century. One famous dealer these figures worked with was the Lion of Cairo\, Maurice Nahman.\n\nOn view will be some rarely displayed artifacts acquired through the efforts of these collectors\, including large decorated Coptic tunics from Egypt and a volume from the Kelsey’s rare complete edition of the Napoleonic Description de l'Égypte. Wonderful vintage photographs help open up the fascinating backstories of some of the Museum’s most popular artifacts. Come discover who brought the Kelsey’s child mummy home from Egypt in the 1880s and who gave us the coffin of Djehutymose in 1906!

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:Discussion on Artificial Neural Networks
DESCRIPTION:In machine learning and cognitive science\, artificial neural networks (ANNs) are a family of models inspired by biological neural networks (the central nervous systems of animals\, in particular the brain) and are used to estimate or approximate functions and their outputs.If you've ever been curious about them\, or would like to start your journey of curiosity now\, join us this Sunday for a guided discussion by 2 undergraduate students on different neural networks. The goal of the presentation is to give a basic understanding of what exactly neural networks are (different architectures\, how are they trained\, why are they useful\, how do they work\, etc) and what the upshot is for the cognitive science /computational neuroscience communities. Students need not have any prior experience with neural nets or computation to participate.

SUMMARY:Performance:David Broza
DESCRIPTION:Israeli superstar David Broza has been considered one of the most dynamic and vibrant performers in the singer/songwriter world. His charismatic and energetic performances have brought to worldwide audiences\, a fusion of three different countries in which he was raised: Israel\, Spain\, and England\, filling concert halls with famous guitar playing\, ranging from flamenco-flavored rhythmic and percussive techniques\, to whirlwind finger picking\, to a signature rock'n'roll sound. David unites the three worlds by utilizing his ability to take on the troubadour tradition\, up to now\, featuring lyrics of the worlds' greatest poets More than a singer/songwriter\, David Broza is also well known for his commitment and dedication to several humanitarian causes\, predominantly\, the Israeli-Palestinian conflict. Beginning in 1977\, Broza has been working to bring the message of peace to the masses by joining peace movements\, and singing what has become the anthem of the peace process\, his hit song\, \"Yihye Tov\". Since that time\, Broza has released over 30 albums in Hebrew\, English and Spanish\,  many of which have become gold and platinum albums. In the year 2006 David Broza received the \"In Search for Common Ground\" award along with Palestinian musician/composer Said Murad\, and in 2009 the Spanish King\, Juan Carlos I\, decorated him with the Spanish Royal Medal of Honor for his longtime contribution to Israel-Spain relations\, and his dedication to promotion of tolerance and conflict resolution. Among his recent releases\, Broza dedicated an album to the unpublished poetry of US singer songwriter\, Townes Van Zandt\, called \"Night Dawn\".  Broza also published his first completely self-written and composed Hebrew album titled \"Third Language\". The year 2014 saw the release of one of the most challenging albums in Broza's long career - an album recorded in its entirety in the Palestinian Sabreen Studio in East Jerusalem\, with the help of American multi-Grammy Award Winner\, singer-songwriter Steve Earle as producer. The collaborative work of the Israeli and Palestinian musicians\, sound engineers\, camera men\, chefs and many others who came to assist and be part of the eight days and nights\, produced a beautiful\, intimate and special album and documentary\, \"East Jerusalem West Jerusalem.\"  Throughout 2015\, David has been touring and promoting this latest work.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Exhibit: Stories of Mothers Lost
DESCRIPTION:Every minute of every day\, a woman dies of pregnancy related complications. Stories of Mothers Lost\, an exhibit of handmade quilts from around the world now on display in Lane Hall\, memorializes some of these women.\n\nThe exhibit was initiated by the White Ribbon Alliance for Safe Motherhood (WRA)\, a non-profit membership based organization\, whose goal is to reduce rates of maternal and child mortality. The initiative to obtain these stories was made possible by a United Nations Population Fund grant to the WRA. Following a global call\, there was an overwhelming response of 120 panels from 46 organizations. Stories of Mothers Lost -  a collection of internationally sourced\, hand crafted panels commemorating mothers lost – allows families to express grief and also plays a powerful role as a mechanism for advocacy and communication on an issue that transcends country borders and impacts us all.  \n\nStories of Mothers Lost is supplied by the UM Department of Obstetrics and Gynecology and its Program in Sexual Rights and Reproductive Justice. The exhibit is hosted by the Women’s Studies Department and the Institute for Research on Women and Gender.\n\nStories of Mothers Lost is in Lane Hall through December 11\, 2015.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Gifts of Art presents Light Within the Darkness of Nature: Oil on Canvas
DESCRIPTION:Using palette knives and an intuitive response to her oil paints and surface\, painter Sheryl Budnik first looks carefully at the land or sea\, noticing her emotional response. She paints what she feels is the heart of a place\, finding \"the light within the darkness of nature”\, or Lumen Naturae. This refers to Paracelsus’ Middle Ages idea that the light in nature allows inspiration and intuition to rise from the subconscious. Budnik evokes a memory of land or water with her abstract paintings in order to connect us with the spirit of the earth and leave us with an awareness that we are all nature.

DESCRIPTION:Returning Gifts of Art exhibiting artist Mary Cody designs colorful jewelry with a subtle message meant to inspire creativity and hope.

Her bead woven jewelry has been in fine art shows from Ann Arbor\, Michigan to Bellevue\, Washington and has been described as miniature works of stained glass.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Gifts of Art presents The Color of U-M Sports: Helicopter Photography
DESCRIPTION:As perhaps the world’s only artist-photographer who works primarily from a helicopter\, Dale Fisher captures and transforms his subjects using color\, light and shadows – all while skimming over his subjects at ground speeds of up to 120 miles per hour.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Gifts of Art presents The Spirit of Place: Oil Paintings
DESCRIPTION:A full time painter\, Laurie Schirmer Carpenter studied art at the University of Colorado\, Denver but has deep ties to the Midwest. She has developed a special interest in the land and skies of this region\, which are often depicted in her paintings. While her paintings are of particular places or things in nature\, they are paintings first – ideas made visual. Most of them result from sketches\, en plein air paintings and photographs made during a walk or bike ride through the countryside. Using these references\, she creates the paintings in her studio that are often a composite of several places. Her oil paintings can be found in many private and corporate collections.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:\"Sonya Clark\" Installation
DESCRIPTION:In \"Sonya Clark\,\" artist and 2014 ArtPrize-winner Sonya Clark exhibits existing and new work which considers the relationship between object and story\, including a new work that incorporates personal stories about hair derived from student engagement at the University of Michigan and from campuses nationwide.\n\nArtist Statement:\n\nI use craft and materials to investigate identity. Simple objects become cultural interfaces. Through them I navigate accord and discord. When trying to unravel complex issues\, I am instinctively drawn to things that connect to my personal narrative as a point of a departure: a comb\, a piece of paper\, or a strand of hair. Charged with agency\, objects have the mysterious ability to reflect or absorb us.  I find my image\, my personal story\, in an object. But it is also the object’s ability to act as a rhizome\, the multiple ways in which it can be discovered or read by a wide audience\, that draws me in. To sustain my practice\, I milk the object\, its potential\, its image\, and its materiality. I manipulate the object in a formal manner to engage the viewer in conversation about collective meaning. Can systematically folded paper effectively use light and shadow in the same manner as an elaborately dyed cloth?  What is the connection between color studies\, combs\, and tapestries?  Can a strand of hair tell a life story? I trust that my stories\, your stories\, our stories are held in the object. In this way\, the everyday “thing” becomes a lens through which we may better see one another.  A visual vocabulary derived from object and image forms a language ranging from the vernacular to the political to the poetic.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Exhibit: Women in Science
DESCRIPTION:Colorful comic book graphics in this panel exhibit invite young U-M Museum of Natural History visitors from every background to see themselves working in STEM fields (Science\, Technology\, Engineering\, and Mathematics)\, and changing the world.\n\nDeveloped by Ann Marie Macara\, a fifth-year graduate student in the U-M Department of Molecular\, Cellular\, and Developmental Biology\, the exhibit features four women scientists whose work had a major impact in their fields. These women persevered against the odds and are powerful role models who continue to inspire young women to follow in their footsteps in STEM.\n\nMary Anning represents Science for her discoveries of fossils from the Jurassic period. Annie Easley personifies Technology as one of the few African-American computer scientists to work at NASA (then NACA) as a ‘human computer’ and who then developed software for rockets. Sarah Goode stands for Engineering as the first African-American woman to receive a US patent for her invention of the folding cabinet bed. Finally\, Wang Zhenyi exemplifies Mathematics for her mathematical models of astronomical events\, including eclipses. \n  \nThe exhibit was made possible through the support of the U-M Life Sciences Institute\; a MAAS Professional Development Award\; the Program in Biomedical Science\; the Department of Molecular\, Cellular\, and Developmental Biology\; the Women in Science and Engineering Program\; and FEMMES (Females Engaged in More Math\, Engineering and the Sciences).

SUMMARY:Exhibition:The Land of Open Graves: Photographs from the Undocumented Migration Project
DESCRIPTION:This pop-up exhibition features Michael Wells' original photographs of Jason De Leon's Undocumented Migration Project\, which was the subject of a 2013 exhibition at the Institute for the Humanities gallery. The photographs were featured in De León's new book The Land of Open Graves Living and Dying on the Migrant Trail.\n\nAbout the book:\n\nIn his gripping and provocative debut\, anthropologist Jason De León sheds light on one of the most pressing political issues of our time—the human consequences of US immigration policy.  The Land of Open Graves reveals the suffering and deaths that occur daily in the Sonoran Desert of Arizona as thousands of undocumented migrants attempt to cross the border from Mexico into the United States.\nJason De León is assistant professor of anthropology at the University of Michigan and director of the Undocumented Migration Project\, a long-term anthropological study of clandestine border crossings between Mexico and the United States. His academic work has been featured in numerous media outlets\, including National Public Radio\, the New York Times Magazine\, Al Jazeera\, The Huffington Post\, and Vice magazine. In 2013\, De León was named a National Geographic Emerging Explorer.\n\nMichael Wells has served as the primary photographer for the Undocumented Migration Project since its inception in 2009 and has photographed that project’s ethnographic and archaeological fieldwork in Arizona\, New York\, Mexico\, and Ecuador. A Los Angeles-based photographer\, his work focuses on how people engage with built and natural environments with a unique eye for the materiality of these spaces. He has created photography projects on post-Katrina New Orleans\, the physicality of the US-Mexico border in Southern Arizona and California\, amateur Latino soccer leagues in Los Angeles\, and Latino Communities in the American South. His diverse body of work has been featured in a wide range of media outlets including Architectural Digest\, Archaeology Magazine\, Domus\, Dwell\, Cabinet\, National Geographic\, National Public Radio\, and Textfield. His book publications include Municipal De Futbol (2008) Denim Legends (2008)\, The Legendary Estates of Beverly Hills (2009)\, and Windsor Smith Homefront (2015).

SUMMARY:Presentation:Population Studies Center Brown Bag Series 2015-16
DESCRIPTION:From the passage of the country's first sterilization law in Indiana in 1907 until the 1960s approximately 60\,000 people were sterilized based on eugenic criteria that sought to regulate the reproduction of the \"unfit\" and mentally deficient. California performed about 20\,000\, or one-third\, of all documented sterilizations nationwide. Few empirical historical analyses of this practice are available. In 2007\, while conducting historical research at the Department of Mental Health (now Department of State Hospitals) in Sacramento\, Dr. Stern located 19 microfilm reels from this era that contain 15\,000 sterilization recommendations along with supplemental letters and forms from nine state hospitals (in total\, over 30\,000 individual documents). Over the past two years Dr. Stern and her team have created a de-identified HIPAA-compliant data set of these recommendations\, which date from 1921 to 1952. We are now beginning to realize quantitative analyses with the eugenic sterilization dataset\, which contains 212 coded variables\, to describe trends in sterilization over time and to describe patterns of sterilization according to gender\, age\, ethnicity\, nationality\, diagnosis\, institutional home\, and many other variables. We also are linking the eugenic sterilization dataset to individual-level census microdata and tract-level census reports\, which will allow us to calculate population-based estimates of sterilization rates and test hypotheses about the associations of gender\, age\, ethnicity\, nationality\, and diagnosis with the risk of sterilization. For example\, we hypothesize that teenagers and Spanish-surnamed patients were disproportionately sterilized in California institutions. In addition\, we will analyze qualitative patterns in the data with respect to familial resistance to sterilization\, patient refusal\, and experiences of institutionalization and sterilization. This project combines quantitative and qualitative methods\, and is exploring new avenues for presenting big data through data visualization on an online archive under development.\n\n\nAlexandra Minna Stern\, Ph.D. is Professor of Obstetrics and Gynecology\, American Culture\, History\, and Women's Studies at the University of Michigan.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:The Art of Tyree Guyton: A Thirty-Year Journey
DESCRIPTION:The Heidelberg Project is one of the largest\, best-known\, and longest-running site-specific art installations in the country. Occupying more than two blocks along Heidelberg Street on Detroit’s East Side\, the project has transformed its neighborhood\, covering abandoned houses\, the street\, and the surrounding area with collections of found objects and vividly rendered paintings.\n\nCelebrating its 30th anniversary in 2016\, the Heidelberg Project has been the life’s work of artist Tyree Guyton. Guyton grew up on Heidelberg Street\, and was encouraged by his housepainter grandfather to choose art as an alternative to drugs and guns. Guyton began the project with his family\, and with the help of neighborhood children\, they gathered discarded objects\, from toys and clothes to televisions and furniture. They painted abandoned houses on the street with bright housepaints and attached objects to the exteriors\, turning them into gigantic assemblage sculptures.\n\nMost of the houses have a defined theme. The Baby Doll House (now destroyed) was covered from roof to foundation with discarded toy dolls in various states of repair. Similarly\, the Clock House has painted renditions of clocks covering its exterior. The project’s lively and unexpected juxtapositions of objects\, words\, colors\, and symbols create a strange and wonderful immersive world.\n\nThe 30-year anniversary of the Heidelberg Project is a moment for Guyton\, and his audience\, to reflect on what his work has meant to the cultural life of Detroit and beyond. Guyton has created two new works specifically for this exhibition\, one in the studio and one in the project. How Much for the City\, a mixed-media sculpture\, makes reference to his long-standing struggles with city government. On Heidelberg Street\, he is building a full-scale house\; it will rise on the foundation of a house destroyed by arson. The process of its construction can be viewed on the Heidelberg Television monitor in the gallery. The Art of Tyree Guyton will explore the artist’s involvement with the project through the decades\, and also feature a selection of prints and drawings from his more recent studio work.\n\nLead support for this exhibition is provided by the Michigan Council for Arts and Cultural Affairs and the National Endowment for the Arts\, the Andy Warhol Foundation for the Visual Arts\, and Lisa Applebaum. Additional generous support is provided by the University of Michigan Taubman College of Architecture and Urban Planning and School of Social Work.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Social\, Behavioral\, and Experimental Economics (SBEE)
DESCRIPTION:Abstract:\nMore than half a century after the first experiment on the infinitely repeated prisoner's dilemma\, evidence on whether cooperation decreases with experience\, as predicted by backward induction\, remains inconclusive. This talk provides a meta-analysis of prior experimental research and reports the results of a new experiment to elucidate how cooperation varies with the environment in this canonical game. Professor Frechette will describe forces that affect initial play (formation of cooperation) and unraveling (breakdown of cooperation). First\, contrary to the backward induction prediction\, the parameters of the repeated game have a significant effect on initial cooperation. Professor Frechette will identify how these parameters impact the value of cooperation as captured by the size of the basin of attraction of Always Defect to account for an important part of this effect. Second\, despite differences in round one behavior\, for all parameter combinations\, evolution of behavior is consistent with the unraveling logic of backward induction. Importantly\, despite the seemingly contradictory results across studies\, Professor Frechette will reveal a systematic pattern of behavior: Subjects converge to using threshold strategies which conditionally cooperate until a threshold round\; and conditional on using cooperative threshold strategies\, the first defection round moves earlier with experience. This finding\, combined with the impact of the value of cooperation on initial cooperation explain how results can vary across studies. Simulation results generated from a learning model estimated at the subject level provide insights on the long-term dynamics and the forces slowing down unraveling of cooperation.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:Positive Links Speaker Series
DESCRIPTION:(Registration link under \"Web and Social\" at the bottom of the page)\n\nGain inspiring and practical research-based strategies for building organizations that are high performing and bring out the best in people. Join us at the Positive Links Speaker Series to learn from leading Positive Organizational scholars. Connect with our community of academics\, students\, staff\, and leaders at our receptions that immediately follow each session.\n\nHOSTED BY: Jane Dutton\, the Robert L. Kahn Distinguished University Professor of Business Administration and Psychology at Michigan Ross\n\nSESSION DESCRIPTION: Organizations are fundamentally patterns of interrelating\, reinforced by structures and work processes.  It's no wonder they are hard to change.  In this presentation\, Brandeis University Professor Jody Hoffer Gittell will introduce relational coordination as a tool for both research and practice. She will share live case studies illustrating how organizations use relational coordination principles and measures as tools for change\, and then conclude with a Relational Model for Organizational Change.\n\nJODY HOFFER GITTELL\, PhD\, is a professor at Brandeis University's Heller School for Social Policy and Management\, and a leading expert on relational coordination and organizational performance. She founded the Relational Coordination Research Collaborative\, bringing scholars and practitioners together to help organizations build relational coordination for high performance. She co-founded a university spinoff called Relational Coordination Analytics Inc.\, offering measurement and intervention support to organizations seeking to improve their performance\, and serves as its Chief Scientific Officer.\n\nGittell's research explores how workers\, leaders\, and customers contribute to quality and efficiency outcomes through their coordination with each other. She has developed a theory of relational coordination\, proposing that highly interdependent work is most effectively coordinated through relationships of shared goals\, shared knowledge\, and mutual respect supported by frequent\, timely\, accurate\, and problem-solving rather than blaming communication. Research demonstrates that relational coordination is associated with a wide range of performance outcomes\, and that organizations can support it through the design of their work systems. The RC survey\, a validated instrument that is widely used for research as well as practice\, assesses dynamics among participants and opens up dialogues to foster fundamental organizational change.\n\nIn The Southwest Airlines Way: Using the Power of Relationships to Achieve High Performance(McGraw-Hill)\, and in High Performance Healthcare: Using the Power of Relationships to Achieve Quality\, Efficiency and Resilience (McGraw-Hill)\, Gittell describes how relational coordination drives performance in airlines and in healthcare\, and how organizations support - or undermine - its development. In Up In the Air: How the Airlines Can Improve Performance by Engaging Their Employees (Cornell University Press)\, co-authored with Bamber\, Kochan and von Nordenflycht\, she analyzes the transformation of the global airline industry in response to low cost competition. Sociology of Organizations: Structures and Relationships (Sage Publications) brings together classic and new authors to show how structures and relationships enable organizations to address their most basic challenges. Her newest book\, Relational Coordination: Transforming Relationships for High Performance (Stanford University Press) demonstrates how relational\, work process\, and structural interventions work together synergistically to enable organizations to achieve sustainable systemic change.\n\nGittell has published her research in scientific journals such as Academy of Management Review\, Organization Science\, Management Science\, Journal of Applied Behavioral Science\, Journal of Organizational Behavior\, Journal of Service Research\, Journal of Management Studies\, Human Resource Management\, Human Resource Management Journal\, International Journal of Human Resource Management\, Industrial and Labor Relations Review\, Harvard Business Review\, California Management Review\, Medical Care\, Health Services Research\, Health Care Management Review\, Journal of Nursing Management\, and Journal of Early Childhood Research.\n\nGittell has won a Best Book Award from the Alfred P. Sloan Foundation\, a Best Paper award from the Human Resource Division of the Academy of Management\, the Douglas McGregor Memorial Award for Best Paper of the Year in the Journal of Applied Behavioral Science\, and an Honorable Mention for the Douglas McGregor Memorial Award for Best Paper on Organizational Change. She was selected Outstanding Young Scholar of the Year by the Labor and Employment Relations Association.\n\nGittell received her PhD from the MIT Sloan School of Management\, her MA from The New School and her BA from Reed College\, and taught for six years at the Harvard Business School before joining the faculty of Brandeis University. She has served as Chair of the Board for Families First Health and Support Center\, as MBA Program Director at the Brandeis Heller School\, and as Acting Director of the MIT Leadership Center. She now serves on the boards of the Labor and Employment Relations Association and the Endowment for Health\, and on the editorial board for the Academy of Management Review. She lives in Portsmouth\, New Hampshire with her husband Ross and their daughters Rose and Grace.\n\nPositive Links sessions take place at Michigan Ross\, and are free and open to the public. Most sessions are live-streamed via a link from our Events page\, and then a listing is added to our Videos page post-session. For more information\, visit poslinksseries.com.\n\nThe Center for Positive Organizations thanks Diane & Paul F. Jones (Ross School of Business MBA 1975)\, for their generous gift in support of the 2015-16 Positive Links Speaker Series.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:CSAS Lecture Series
DESCRIPTION:Speaker: Dilip Menon\, Mellon Chair in Indian Studies\, Director of the Centre for Indian Studies in Africa\, University of Witwater\n\nSouth Asian history after the subaltern moment has moved to a writing of the intellectual history of colonial India. While at one level this signifies an attempt to take seriously forms of intellection by indigenous intellectuals\, in its form and method it may signify a return to an elite history that privileges elite thought\, national identity\, and a hermetic understanding of writing and texts over the contextual and miscegenated spaces of historical imagination. Moreover\, it continues with the dichotomy instituted by subaltern history of doing elite thought and subaltern action. Menon suggests we need to look at the idea of itinerant thought\, of the circular relation between text and contexts and the necessarily transnational space of intellection.\n\nThe space within which power is conceptualized is multiple\, contingent and miscegenated. While researching anti-Christian missionary polemic in late 19th century in Kerala through the writings of a religious figure Chattampi Svamikal\, it became clear to Menon that not only were several conceptions of power involved here but also differing conceptions of territory. The enterprise of colonial history writing had created a unilinear narrative of native political and social decline within a territory produced and defined by conquest. Chattampi Swamikal attempted to recover religious traditions not only from a larger Dravidian space to counter this delimiting of territory\; he also drew upon the circulation of polemic generated by centuries of Protestant-Catholic conflict in Europe as much as rationalist critiques of the very idea of Christianity itself proceeding from the Enlightenment. Added to this mix were the Hindu apologetics generated by Brahmin intellectuals in Jaffna\, Bengal\, and Maharashtra which drew upon indigenous philosophical traditions as much as the detritus of intra-Christian debate. Pilgrimages\, itinerant preaching\, pamphleteering and the movements of labour from SE Asia and Ceylon carried these debates across political\, religious and linguistic boundaries.\n\nDilip Menon studied in Delhi\, Oxford (Balliol) and Cambridge (Trinity) and was a Fellow of Magdalene College Cambridge before returning to India to take up teaching posts and fellowships in Trivandrum\, Hyderabad and Delhi. He has held postdoctoral and teaching positions at Cambridge\, Yale\, Zentrum fur Moderner Orient (Berlin)and Maison des Science de les Hommes (Paris) and has published three books and several articles on caste\, socialism and modernity in India. Menon is currently working on a book project on the historical imagination in South India between 1860 and 1960 to be titled \"Thinking History in Colonial Times.\" He is currently the Mellon Chair in Indian Studies\, and Director Centre for Indian Studies in Africa at the University of Witwatersrand.\n\nCosponsored by the African Studies Center.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Exhibit: Stories of Mothers Lost
DESCRIPTION:Every minute of every day\, a woman dies of pregnancy related complications. Stories of Mothers Lost\, an exhibit of handmade quilts from around the world now on display in Lane Hall\, memorializes some of these women.\n\nThe exhibit was initiated by the White Ribbon Alliance for Safe Motherhood (WRA)\, a non-profit membership based organization\, whose goal is to reduce rates of maternal and child mortality. The initiative to obtain these stories was made possible by a United Nations Population Fund grant to the WRA. Following a global call\, there was an overwhelming response of 120 panels from 46 organizations. Stories of Mothers Lost -  a collection of internationally sourced\, hand crafted panels commemorating mothers lost – allows families to express grief and also plays a powerful role as a mechanism for advocacy and communication on an issue that transcends country borders and impacts us all.  \n\nStories of Mothers Lost is supplied by the UM Department of Obstetrics and Gynecology and its Program in Sexual Rights and Reproductive Justice. The exhibit is hosted by the Women’s Studies Department and the Institute for Research on Women and Gender.\n\nStories of Mothers Lost is in Lane Hall through December 11\, 2015.

DESCRIPTION:Using palette knives and an intuitive response to her oil paints and surface\, painter Sheryl Budnik first looks carefully at the land or sea\, noticing her emotional response. She paints what she feels is the heart of a place\, finding \"the light within the darkness of nature”\, or Lumen Naturae. This refers to Paracelsus’ Middle Ages idea that the light in nature allows inspiration and intuition to rise from the subconscious. Budnik evokes a memory of land or water with her abstract paintings in order to connect us with the spirit of the earth and leave us with an awareness that we are all nature.

Her bead woven jewelry has been in fine art shows from Ann Arbor\, Michigan to Bellevue\, Washington and has been described as miniature works of stained glass.

DESCRIPTION:A full time painter\, Laurie Schirmer Carpenter studied art at the University of Colorado\, Denver but has deep ties to the Midwest. She has developed a special interest in the land and skies of this region\, which are often depicted in her paintings. While her paintings are of particular places or things in nature\, they are paintings first – ideas made visual. Most of them result from sketches\, en plein air paintings and photographs made during a walk or bike ride through the countryside. Using these references\, she creates the paintings in her studio that are often a composite of several places. Her oil paintings can be found in many private and corporate collections.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:\"Sonya Clark\" Installation
DESCRIPTION:In \"Sonya Clark\,\" artist and 2014 ArtPrize-winner Sonya Clark exhibits existing and new work which considers the relationship between object and story\, including a new work that incorporates personal stories about hair derived from student engagement at the University of Michigan and from campuses nationwide.\n\nArtist Statement:\n\nI use craft and materials to investigate identity. Simple objects become cultural interfaces. Through them I navigate accord and discord. When trying to unravel complex issues\, I am instinctively drawn to things that connect to my personal narrative as a point of a departure: a comb\, a piece of paper\, or a strand of hair. Charged with agency\, objects have the mysterious ability to reflect or absorb us.  I find my image\, my personal story\, in an object. But it is also the object’s ability to act as a rhizome\, the multiple ways in which it can be discovered or read by a wide audience\, that draws me in. To sustain my practice\, I milk the object\, its potential\, its image\, and its materiality. I manipulate the object in a formal manner to engage the viewer in conversation about collective meaning. Can systematically folded paper effectively use light and shadow in the same manner as an elaborately dyed cloth?  What is the connection between color studies\, combs\, and tapestries?  Can a strand of hair tell a life story? I trust that my stories\, your stories\, our stories are held in the object. In this way\, the everyday “thing” becomes a lens through which we may better see one another.  A visual vocabulary derived from object and image forms a language ranging from the vernacular to the political to the poetic.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Exhibit: Women in Science
DESCRIPTION:Colorful comic book graphics in this panel exhibit invite young U-M Museum of Natural History visitors from every background to see themselves working in STEM fields (Science\, Technology\, Engineering\, and Mathematics)\, and changing the world.\n\nDeveloped by Ann Marie Macara\, a fifth-year graduate student in the U-M Department of Molecular\, Cellular\, and Developmental Biology\, the exhibit features four women scientists whose work had a major impact in their fields. These women persevered against the odds and are powerful role models who continue to inspire young women to follow in their footsteps in STEM.\n\nMary Anning represents Science for her discoveries of fossils from the Jurassic period. Annie Easley personifies Technology as one of the few African-American computer scientists to work at NASA (then NACA) as a ‘human computer’ and who then developed software for rockets. Sarah Goode stands for Engineering as the first African-American woman to receive a US patent for her invention of the folding cabinet bed. Finally\, Wang Zhenyi exemplifies Mathematics for her mathematical models of astronomical events\, including eclipses. \n  \nThe exhibit was made possible through the support of the U-M Life Sciences Institute\; a MAAS Professional Development Award\; the Program in Biomedical Science\; the Department of Molecular\, Cellular\, and Developmental Biology\; the Women in Science and Engineering Program\; and FEMMES (Females Engaged in More Math\, Engineering and the Sciences).

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Passionate Curiosities: Collecting in Egypt & the Near East\, 1880s–1950s
DESCRIPTION:What circumstances formed the artifact-biographies of the collected objects we see in museum display cases? Passionate Curiosities\, curated by Margaret Root\, invites visitors to meet some of the remarkable people—from eminent scientists to missionaries\, from consuls to entrepreneurs\, from scholars to swash-buckling adventurers—who forged the Egyptian and Near Eastern collections of the Kelsey Museum between the 1880s and the 1950s. \n\nThe featured notables all have ties to the State of Michigan and often to the University itself. They include Samuel A. Goudsmit\, co-discoverer of the spin of the electron in 1925\; Harriet Conner\, an unsung missionary in 1880s Cairo\; Henry Gillman\, American consul in Jerusalem in the 1880s\; Dr. David Askren\, an American physician living in Egypt who facilitated massive purchases for Professor Francis W. Kelsey\; and A. M. Todd of Kalamazoo\, a chemist\, global entrepreneur\, and utopian thinker who marketed his distilled mint products across the world at the turn of the last century. One famous dealer these figures worked with was the Lion of Cairo\, Maurice Nahman.\n\nOn view will be some rarely displayed artifacts acquired through the efforts of these collectors\, including large decorated Coptic tunics from Egypt and a volume from the Kelsey’s rare complete edition of the Napoleonic Description de l'Égypte. Wonderful vintage photographs help open up the fascinating backstories of some of the Museum’s most popular artifacts. Come discover who brought the Kelsey’s child mummy home from Egypt in the 1880s and who gave us the coffin of Djehutymose in 1906!

SUMMARY:Exhibition:The Land of Open Graves: Photographs from the Undocumented Migration Project
DESCRIPTION:This pop-up exhibition features Michael Wells' original photographs of Jason De Leon's Undocumented Migration Project\, which was the subject of a 2013 exhibition at the Institute for the Humanities gallery. The photographs were featured in De León's new book The Land of Open Graves Living and Dying on the Migrant Trail.\n\nAbout the book:\n\nIn his gripping and provocative debut\, anthropologist Jason De León sheds light on one of the most pressing political issues of our time—the human consequences of US immigration policy.  The Land of Open Graves reveals the suffering and deaths that occur daily in the Sonoran Desert of Arizona as thousands of undocumented migrants attempt to cross the border from Mexico into the United States.\nJason De León is assistant professor of anthropology at the University of Michigan and director of the Undocumented Migration Project\, a long-term anthropological study of clandestine border crossings between Mexico and the United States. His academic work has been featured in numerous media outlets\, including National Public Radio\, the New York Times Magazine\, Al Jazeera\, The Huffington Post\, and Vice magazine. In 2013\, De León was named a National Geographic Emerging Explorer.\n\nMichael Wells has served as the primary photographer for the Undocumented Migration Project since its inception in 2009 and has photographed that project’s ethnographic and archaeological fieldwork in Arizona\, New York\, Mexico\, and Ecuador. A Los Angeles-based photographer\, his work focuses on how people engage with built and natural environments with a unique eye for the materiality of these spaces. He has created photography projects on post-Katrina New Orleans\, the physicality of the US-Mexico border in Southern Arizona and California\, amateur Latino soccer leagues in Los Angeles\, and Latino Communities in the American South. His diverse body of work has been featured in a wide range of media outlets including Architectural Digest\, Archaeology Magazine\, Domus\, Dwell\, Cabinet\, National Geographic\, National Public Radio\, and Textfield. His book publications include Municipal De Futbol (2008) Denim Legends (2008)\, The Legendary Estates of Beverly Hills (2009)\, and Windsor Smith Homefront (2015).

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Jem Cohen
DESCRIPTION:The title of this multi-format photography and video installation by New York filmmaker Jem Cohen comes from the artist’s own characterization of his practice.\n	As he explains\, “The unifying core of my work stems from encountering the world as it unfolds. Whether the project is long- or short-term\, moving image or still photography\, single pictures\, multiple projections\, or an installation\, it is through close observation\, careful listening\, and an embrace of chance that I establish the bedrock. . . . Regardless of the tools and the form\, the project is . . . life drawing.”\n	\nThe dual-gallery presentation of Life Drawing at UMMA underscores Cohen’s use of disparate media that\, rooted in a shared set of concerns and working methods\, organically coalesce into a broader body of work.\n	We Have an Anchor\, on view in the Media Gallery\, is a single-channel video projection that incorporates composited 16mm\, Super 8\, and HD imagery. An environmental portrait of Nova Scotia\, it takes its departure point from a live performance with multiple projections where Cohen collaborated with an ensemble of musicians to make what has been described as a cinematic love letter to Nova Scotia's Cape Breton. Footage of the island\, gathered over 10 years\, is interspersed with texts ranging from poems to local folklore\, buoyed by both environmental sounds and an original score written and performed by members from a diverse group of bands\, including Godspeed You! Black Emperor\, Dirty Three\, Fugazi\, White Magic\, Silver Mt. Zion\, and The Quavers.\n	\nIn the Photography Gallery\, more than 25 still photographs\, again gathered over a long period in a disappearing analog format (in this case\, Polaroid film)\, are subtly married to digital technology. The images\, some urban and some domestic\, are from a variety of locations ranging from New York to Tangier. With both the video and the photographs Cohen uses a strategy of free wandering conjoined with careful documentation in order to unearth and celebrate hidden\, seemingly haunted geographies and their human (and animal) inhabitants.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Soviet Constructivist Posters
DESCRIPTION:During the 1920s the Soviet Union emerged on the world stage. The first decade was full of hope for a new social order that would reject the values and traditions of Tsarist rule. Centered in Moscow\, a group of young artists\, spearheaded in part by Vladimir (1899-1982) and Georgy Stenberg (1900-1933)\, championed an art that promoted the egalitarian ideals of the New Order and contributed to the growth of the Soviet Union. Known as the Constructivists\, they advocated for utilitarian art that was easily accessible and spoke to the masses. Among their most provocative and visionary works were posters advertising Soviet films.\n\n	UMMA’s exhibition\, Soviet Constructivist Posters: Branding the New Order features a selection of posters by the Stenbergs and other Constructivists for some of early cinema’s most inventive films including\, Sergei Eisenstein’sOctober and Dziga Vertov’s Man with a Movie Camera.\n\n	Using dynamic compositions\, bold colors\, and emblematic images\, these posters announced that the Soviet Union was a progressive nation that could propel society into a utopian future. Their revolutionary aesthetic became associated with the workers’ movement and helped to shape how it was understood both at home and abroad. Though Constructivism went out of favor in the 1930s with the rise of Joseph Stalin (1878–1953)\, Constructivist designs continued to have an influence abroad. Today\, their legacy can be seen in advertisements and other promotional materials made for the public eye.\n\n	Lead support for this exhibition is provided by the University of Michigan Weiser Center for Emerging Democracies and the Center for Russian\, East European\, and Eurasian Studies.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Health\, History\, Demography and Development (H2D2)
DESCRIPTION:Abstract:\nThis paper uses register-based\, individual level information about the universe of Danish prescription drug purchases from 1998-2010 to provide evidence of forward-looking behavior in demand for prescription drugs. We exploit that the consumer of prescription drugs faces a nonlinear pricing scheme where subsidies increase as expenditures accumulates but that the account is reset exactly 12 months after the first purchase. This generates a discrete upwards jump in the price of drugs between the last day of the current subsidy year and the first day of the next. We see that consumers react to this future increase in spot price by stockpiling towards the end of the subsidy year. We find considerable heterogeneity in the degree of stockpiling: individuals who face more predictable future demand stockpile more\, and particularly so if they have higher levels of education. We also find evidence of learning in the sense that more experience with the subsidy scheme increases stockpiling. We find a substantial effect given the actual limited benefits of stockpiling. This is either because (i) consumers respond to the true effective marginal price with a high elasticity or that (ii) they respond to the observed change in spot prices and confuse this with a benefit to stockpile.

DESCRIPTION:Come as You Are: Art of the 1990s\, the first major museum survey to examine the art of this pivotal decade in its historical context\, showcases over 64 works by 46 artists born or practicing in the United States. The exhibition\, whose title references the 1992 Nirvana song (considered by many an anthem for the decade)\, focuses on three principal themes—debates over “identity politics\,” the digital revolution\, and globalization—and explores a range of geopolitical milestones and social issues through the perspective of artists working at that time. The exhibition also illustrates the diverse ways in which the developments of the 1990s redefined contemporary approaches to artistic practice and\, in the words of exhibition curator Alexandra Schwartz\, “writes a history of the ’90s through the lens of the visual arts.”\n\nCome as You Are looks at the dramatic changes in the art world itself\, including the ongoing culture wars\; issues of artistic freedom and censorship\; the impact of new media and the emergence of video\, sound\, and digital art\; the expansion of the global art market\; and the explosion of art fairs and biennials. It also investigates the art world’s increasing heterogeneity as artists of color\, women artists\, and LGBT artists attained increased prominence. Artists include Doug Aitken\, Felix Gonzalez-Torres\, Glenn Ligon\, Julie Mehretu\, Prema Murthy\, Shirin Neshat\, Catherine Opie\, Gabriel Orozco\, Diana Thater\, Rirkrit Tiravanija\, and Kara Walker in a wide range of works including installations\, paintings\, sculptures\, drawings\, prints\, photography\, video\, and digital art.\n\nCome as You Are: Art of the 1990s is organized by the Montclair Art Museum and curated by Alexandra Schwartz\, curator of contemporary art\, with Kimberly Siino\, curatorial assistant. This exhibition is made possible with generous support from The Andy Warhol Foundation for the Visual Arts.\n\nLead support for this exhibition is provided by the University of Michigan Office of the Provost and the University of Michigan Health System.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:The Art of Tyree Guyton: A Thirty-Year Journey
DESCRIPTION:The Heidelberg Project is one of the largest\, best-known\, and longest-running site-specific art installations in the country. Occupying more than two blocks along Heidelberg Street on Detroit’s East Side\, the project has transformed its neighborhood\, covering abandoned houses\, the street\, and the surrounding area with collections of found objects and vividly rendered paintings.\n\nCelebrating its 30th anniversary in 2016\, the Heidelberg Project has been the life’s work of artist Tyree Guyton. Guyton grew up on Heidelberg Street\, and was encouraged by his housepainter grandfather to choose art as an alternative to drugs and guns. Guyton began the project with his family\, and with the help of neighborhood children\, they gathered discarded objects\, from toys and clothes to televisions and furniture. They painted abandoned houses on the street with bright housepaints and attached objects to the exteriors\, turning them into gigantic assemblage sculptures.\n\nMost of the houses have a defined theme. The Baby Doll House (now destroyed) was covered from roof to foundation with discarded toy dolls in various states of repair. Similarly\, the Clock House has painted renditions of clocks covering its exterior. The project’s lively and unexpected juxtapositions of objects\, words\, colors\, and symbols create a strange and wonderful immersive world.\n\nThe 30-year anniversary of the Heidelberg Project is a moment for Guyton\, and his audience\, to reflect on what his work has meant to the cultural life of Detroit and beyond. Guyton has created two new works specifically for this exhibition\, one in the studio and one in the project. How Much for the City\, a mixed-media sculpture\, makes reference to his long-standing struggles with city government. On Heidelberg Street\, he is building a full-scale house\; it will rise on the foundation of a house destroyed by arson. The process of its construction can be viewed on the Heidelberg Television monitor in the gallery. The Art of Tyree Guyton will explore the artist’s involvement with the project through the decades\, and also feature a selection of prints and drawings from his more recent studio work.\n\nLead support for this exhibition is provided by the Michigan Council for Arts and Cultural Affairs and the National Endowment for the Arts\, the Andy Warhol Foundation for the Visual Arts\, and Lisa Applebaum. Additional generous support is provided by the University of Michigan Taubman College of Architecture and Urban Planning and School of Social Work.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:\"Conversions: (Re)Writing Women and the Politics of Religion in India\"
DESCRIPTION:The politics of religion in and of the Indian subcontinent\, which has also included forced religious conversions\, has often undermined women's oppositional agency even as it has produced some remarkable works of literature such as Amrita Pritam’s Pinjar\, Mahasweta Devi’s \"Draupadi\,\" Namita Gokhale and Malashri Lal’s edited collection In Search of Sita\, Anita Nair’s Mistress and others\, which attempt to subvert male elite epistemologies of religion in order to reimagine women’s bodies\, identities and choices. This talk will interrogate the gendered politics of religion in India\, the literary imaginations it has engendered\, and the gaps and overlaps between the two. Ultimately\, I examine what kinds of political\, literary\, spiritual and ethical coalitions are possible as women struggle to embody and articulate alternative futurities in this postcolonial\, globalizing present.\n\nDebotri Dhar is the 2015-16 Jean Campbell Visiting Scholar in the Center for the Education of Women\, University of Michigan-Ann Arbor\, and a lecturer in Women’s Studies.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:Smith Lecture: Interrogating Structure\, Dynamics\, and Hazard in Subduction Zones
DESCRIPTION:Subduction zones are the sites of Earth’s most powerful earthquakes and many of the world’s active volcanoes. Despite their importance\, there are many aspects of subduction zone composition and dynamics that are poorly understood. This is especially important for those properties and processes that have implications for subduction-related hazard. Here\, I show results from using anisotropic receiver function analysis to interrogate the mantle wedges beneath Japan. In addition to elucidating dynamic processes in the mantle wedge\, we also are able to constrain the location of hydrous phases above the subducting slab in the Ryukyu arc. Finally\, I show recent results from modeling large megathrust earthquakes and their implications for seismic hazard. Modeling results emphasize the importance of constraining the up- and down-dip limits of the seismogenic zone\, the location of high stress drop asperities\, rupture “roughness”\, and the 3-D velocity structure of the subduction system. Overall\, these studies highlight the need for detailed geophysical studies to interrogate the mantle wedge and plate interface in subduction zones\, with a particular focus on those properties and processes with implications for subduction-related hazard.

SUMMARY:Film Screening:One Big Hapa Family / What Are You Anyways?
DESCRIPTION:One Big Hapa Family (Jeff Chiba Stearns\, 2010\, 48 min.): \nThis live action and animated documentary explores why almost 100% of all Japanese-Canadians are marrying interracially\, the highest out of any other ethnicity in Canada\, and how their mixed children perceive their unique multiracial identities.\n\nWhat are you anyways? (Jeff Chiba Stearns\, 2005\, 11 min.): \nFollow the adventures of the Super Nip as Jeff Chiba Stearns explores his cultural backgrounds growing up a mix of Japanese and Caucasian in a small white-bred Canadian city. Looks at particular periods in Jeff's life where he battled with finding an idenitiy being half-minority. A humorous yet serious story of struggle and love and finding one's identity through the trials and tribulations of growing up.\n\nThis is one of a year-long series of events that explore what it means to be multiracial in a monoracially conceived world.

SUMMARY:Performance:John Moreland
DESCRIPTION:John Moreland started writing when he was ten years old\, the same year his family moved from Kentucky\, to Tulsa\, Oklahoma\, where he still lives today. He turns 30 this year\, and he’s been slinging songs for more than half his life. He started fronting local punk and hardcore bands in high school. After graduation\, he had an epiphany. “I’d just overexposed myself to punk and hardcore to the point that it just didn’t do anything for me anymore\,” he says. The remedy? He ditched his music for his dad’s: CCR\, Neil Young\, Tom Petty\, Steve Earle. “I think what appealed to me about it was lyrics\,” he says. \"I was 19 in 2004\, and Steve Earle had put out ‘The Revolution Starts Now\,’ and I remember hearing the song ‘Rich Man’s War’ and totally feeling like somebody just punched me in the chest. When John released \"In the Throes\" in June of 2013\, the album didn’t just charm listeners—it stunned them. No Depression declared the collection “isn’t so much songwriting as alchemy with words and music.” MSNBC host Rachel Maddow heard his songs and joined the chorus\, tweeting: “If the American music business made any sense\, guys like John Moreland would be household names.” John's new \"High on Tulsa Heat \"is a triumphant sequel\, pulsing with the sharply drawn imagery and cutting vulnerability that his listeners have come to expect. Opener Micah Schnabel\, lead singer of Two Car Garage\, will kick off the evning with a solo acoustic set.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Exhibit: Stories of Mothers Lost
DESCRIPTION:Every minute of every day\, a woman dies of pregnancy related complications. Stories of Mothers Lost\, an exhibit of handmade quilts from around the world now on display in Lane Hall\, memorializes some of these women.\n\nThe exhibit was initiated by the White Ribbon Alliance for Safe Motherhood (WRA)\, a non-profit membership based organization\, whose goal is to reduce rates of maternal and child mortality. The initiative to obtain these stories was made possible by a United Nations Population Fund grant to the WRA. Following a global call\, there was an overwhelming response of 120 panels from 46 organizations. Stories of Mothers Lost -  a collection of internationally sourced\, hand crafted panels commemorating mothers lost – allows families to express grief and also plays a powerful role as a mechanism for advocacy and communication on an issue that transcends country borders and impacts us all.  \n\nStories of Mothers Lost is supplied by the UM Department of Obstetrics and Gynecology and its Program in Sexual Rights and Reproductive Justice. The exhibit is hosted by the Women’s Studies Department and the Institute for Research on Women and Gender.\n\nStories of Mothers Lost is in Lane Hall through December 11\, 2015.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Gifts of Art presents Light Within the Darkness of Nature: Oil on Canvas
DESCRIPTION:Using palette knives and an intuitive response to her oil paints and surface\, painter Sheryl Budnik first looks carefully at the land or sea\, noticing her emotional response. She paints what she feels is the heart of a place\, finding \"the light within the darkness of nature”\, or Lumen Naturae. This refers to Paracelsus’ Middle Ages idea that the light in nature allows inspiration and intuition to rise from the subconscious. Budnik evokes a memory of land or water with her abstract paintings in order to connect us with the spirit of the earth and leave us with an awareness that we are all nature.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Gifts of Art presents The Spirit of Place: Oil Paintings
DESCRIPTION:A full time painter\, Laurie Schirmer Carpenter studied art at the University of Colorado\, Denver but has deep ties to the Midwest. She has developed a special interest in the land and skies of this region\, which are often depicted in her paintings. While her paintings are of particular places or things in nature\, they are paintings first – ideas made visual. Most of them result from sketches\, en plein air paintings and photographs made during a walk or bike ride through the countryside. Using these references\, she creates the paintings in her studio that are often a composite of several places. Her oil paintings can be found in many private and corporate collections.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:\"Sonya Clark\" Installation
DESCRIPTION:In \"Sonya Clark\,\" artist and 2014 ArtPrize-winner Sonya Clark exhibits existing and new work which considers the relationship between object and story\, including a new work that incorporates personal stories about hair derived from student engagement at the University of Michigan and from campuses nationwide.\n\nArtist Statement:\n\nI use craft and materials to investigate identity. Simple objects become cultural interfaces. Through them I navigate accord and discord. When trying to unravel complex issues\, I am instinctively drawn to things that connect to my personal narrative as a point of a departure: a comb\, a piece of paper\, or a strand of hair. Charged with agency\, objects have the mysterious ability to reflect or absorb us.  I find my image\, my personal story\, in an object. But it is also the object’s ability to act as a rhizome\, the multiple ways in which it can be discovered or read by a wide audience\, that draws me in. To sustain my practice\, I milk the object\, its potential\, its image\, and its materiality. I manipulate the object in a formal manner to engage the viewer in conversation about collective meaning. Can systematically folded paper effectively use light and shadow in the same manner as an elaborately dyed cloth?  What is the connection between color studies\, combs\, and tapestries?  Can a strand of hair tell a life story? I trust that my stories\, your stories\, our stories are held in the object. In this way\, the everyday “thing” becomes a lens through which we may better see one another.  A visual vocabulary derived from object and image forms a language ranging from the vernacular to the political to the poetic.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Exhibit: Women in Science
DESCRIPTION:Colorful comic book graphics in this panel exhibit invite young U-M Museum of Natural History visitors from every background to see themselves working in STEM fields (Science\, Technology\, Engineering\, and Mathematics)\, and changing the world.\n\nDeveloped by Ann Marie Macara\, a fifth-year graduate student in the U-M Department of Molecular\, Cellular\, and Developmental Biology\, the exhibit features four women scientists whose work had a major impact in their fields. These women persevered against the odds and are powerful role models who continue to inspire young women to follow in their footsteps in STEM.\n\nMary Anning represents Science for her discoveries of fossils from the Jurassic period. Annie Easley personifies Technology as one of the few African-American computer scientists to work at NASA (then NACA) as a ‘human computer’ and who then developed software for rockets. Sarah Goode stands for Engineering as the first African-American woman to receive a US patent for her invention of the folding cabinet bed. Finally\, Wang Zhenyi exemplifies Mathematics for her mathematical models of astronomical events\, including eclipses. \n  \nThe exhibit was made possible through the support of the U-M Life Sciences Institute\; a MAAS Professional Development Award\; the Program in Biomedical Science\; the Department of Molecular\, Cellular\, and Developmental Biology\; the Women in Science and Engineering Program\; and FEMMES (Females Engaged in More Math\, Engineering and the Sciences).

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Passionate Curiosities: Collecting in Egypt & the Near East\, 1880s–1950s
DESCRIPTION:What circumstances formed the artifact-biographies of the collected objects we see in museum display cases? Passionate Curiosities\, curated by Margaret Root\, invites visitors to meet some of the remarkable people—from eminent scientists to missionaries\, from consuls to entrepreneurs\, from scholars to swash-buckling adventurers—who forged the Egyptian and Near Eastern collections of the Kelsey Museum between the 1880s and the 1950s. \n\nThe featured notables all have ties to the State of Michigan and often to the University itself. They include Samuel A. Goudsmit\, co-discoverer of the spin of the electron in 1925\; Harriet Conner\, an unsung missionary in 1880s Cairo\; Henry Gillman\, American consul in Jerusalem in the 1880s\; Dr. David Askren\, an American physician living in Egypt who facilitated massive purchases for Professor Francis W. Kelsey\; and A. M. Todd of Kalamazoo\, a chemist\, global entrepreneur\, and utopian thinker who marketed his distilled mint products across the world at the turn of the last century. One famous dealer these figures worked with was the Lion of Cairo\, Maurice Nahman.\n\nOn view will be some rarely displayed artifacts acquired through the efforts of these collectors\, including large decorated Coptic tunics from Egypt and a volume from the Kelsey’s rare complete edition of the Napoleonic Description de l'Égypte. Wonderful vintage photographs help open up the fascinating backstories of some of the Museum’s most popular artifacts. Come discover who brought the Kelsey’s child mummy home from Egypt in the 1880s and who gave us the coffin of Djehutymose in 1906!

SUMMARY:Exhibition:The Land of Open Graves: Photographs from the Undocumented Migration Project
DESCRIPTION:This pop-up exhibition features Michael Wells' original photographs of Jason De Leon's Undocumented Migration Project\, which was the subject of a 2013 exhibition at the Institute for the Humanities gallery. The photographs were featured in De León's new book The Land of Open Graves Living and Dying on the Migrant Trail.\n\nAbout the book:\n\nIn his gripping and provocative debut\, anthropologist Jason De León sheds light on one of the most pressing political issues of our time—the human consequences of US immigration policy.  The Land of Open Graves reveals the suffering and deaths that occur daily in the Sonoran Desert of Arizona as thousands of undocumented migrants attempt to cross the border from Mexico into the United States.\nJason De León is assistant professor of anthropology at the University of Michigan and director of the Undocumented Migration Project\, a long-term anthropological study of clandestine border crossings between Mexico and the United States. His academic work has been featured in numerous media outlets\, including National Public Radio\, the New York Times Magazine\, Al Jazeera\, The Huffington Post\, and Vice magazine. In 2013\, De León was named a National Geographic Emerging Explorer.\n\nMichael Wells has served as the primary photographer for the Undocumented Migration Project since its inception in 2009 and has photographed that project’s ethnographic and archaeological fieldwork in Arizona\, New York\, Mexico\, and Ecuador. A Los Angeles-based photographer\, his work focuses on how people engage with built and natural environments with a unique eye for the materiality of these spaces. He has created photography projects on post-Katrina New Orleans\, the physicality of the US-Mexico border in Southern Arizona and California\, amateur Latino soccer leagues in Los Angeles\, and Latino Communities in the American South. His diverse body of work has been featured in a wide range of media outlets including Architectural Digest\, Archaeology Magazine\, Domus\, Dwell\, Cabinet\, National Geographic\, National Public Radio\, and Textfield.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Jem Cohen
DESCRIPTION:The title of this multi-format photography and video installation by New York filmmaker Jem Cohen comes from the artist’s own characterization of his practice.\n	As he explains\, “The unifying core of my work stems from encountering the world as it unfolds. Whether the project is long- or short-term\, moving image or still photography\, single pictures\, multiple projections\, or an installation\, it is through close observation\, careful listening\, and an embrace of chance that I establish the bedrock. . . . Regardless of the tools and the form\, the project is . . . life drawing.”\n	\nThe dual-gallery presentation of Life Drawing at UMMA underscores Cohen’s use of disparate media that\, rooted in a shared set of concerns and working methods\, organically coalesce into a broader body of work.\n	We Have an Anchor\, on view in the Media Gallery\, is a single-channel video projection that incorporates composited 16mm\, Super 8\, and HD imagery. An environmental portrait of Nova Scotia\, it takes its departure point from a live performance with multiple projections where Cohen collaborated with an ensemble of musicians to make what has been described as a cinematic love letter to Nova Scotia's Cape Breton. Footage of the island\, gathered over 10 years\, is interspersed with texts ranging from poems to local folklore\, buoyed by both environmental sounds and an original score written and performed by members from a diverse group of bands\, including Godspeed You! Black Emperor\, Dirty Three\, Fugazi\, White Magic\, Silver Mt. Zion\, and The Quavers.\n	\nIn the Photography Gallery\, more than 25 still photographs\, again gathered over a long period in a disappearing analog format (in this case\, Polaroid film)\, are subtly married to digital technology. The images\, some urban and some domestic\, are from a variety of locations ranging from New York to Tangier. With both the video and the photographs Cohen uses a strategy of free wandering conjoined with careful documentation in order to unearth and celebrate hidden\, seemingly haunted geographies and their human (and animal) inhabitants.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Soviet Constructivist Posters
DESCRIPTION:During the 1920s the Soviet Union emerged on the world stage. The first decade was full of hope for a new social order that would reject the values and traditions of Tsarist rule. Centered in Moscow\, a group of young artists\, spearheaded in part by Vladimir (1899-1982) and Georgy Stenberg (1900-1933)\, championed an art that promoted the egalitarian ideals of the New Order and contributed to the growth of the Soviet Union. Known as the Constructivists\, they advocated for utilitarian art that was easily accessible and spoke to the masses. Among their most provocative and visionary works were posters advertising Soviet films.\n\n	UMMA’s exhibition\, Soviet Constructivist Posters: Branding the New Order features a selection of posters by the Stenbergs and other Constructivists for some of early cinema’s most inventive films including\, Sergei Eisenstein’sOctober and Dziga Vertov’s Man with a Movie Camera.\n\n	Using dynamic compositions\, bold colors\, and emblematic images\, these posters announced that the Soviet Union was a progressive nation that could propel society into a utopian future. Their revolutionary aesthetic became associated with the workers’ movement and helped to shape how it was understood both at home and abroad. Though Constructivism went out of favor in the 1930s with the rise of Joseph Stalin (1878–1953)\, Constructivist designs continued to have an influence abroad. Today\, their legacy can be seen in advertisements and other promotional materials made for the public eye.\n\n	Lead support for this exhibition is provided by the University of Michigan Weiser Center for Emerging Democracies and the Center for Russian\, East European\, and Eurasian Studies.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Come as You Are: Art of the 1990s
DESCRIPTION:Come as You Are: Art of the 1990s\, the first major museum survey to examine the art of this pivotal decade in its historical context\, showcases over 64 works by 46 artists born or practicing in the United States. The exhibition\, whose title references the 1992 Nirvana song (considered by many an anthem for the decade)\, focuses on three principal themes—debates over “identity politics\,” the digital revolution\, and globalization—and explores a range of geopolitical milestones and social issues through the perspective of artists working at that time. The exhibition also illustrates the diverse ways in which the developments of the 1990s redefined contemporary approaches to artistic practice and\, in the words of exhibition curator Alexandra Schwartz\, “writes a history of the ’90s through the lens of the visual arts.”\n\nCome as You Are looks at the dramatic changes in the art world itself\, including the ongoing culture wars\; issues of artistic freedom and censorship\; the impact of new media and the emergence of video\, sound\, and digital art\; the expansion of the global art market\; and the explosion of art fairs and biennials. It also investigates the art world’s increasing heterogeneity as artists of color\, women artists\, and LGBT artists attained increased prominence. Artists include Doug Aitken\, Felix Gonzalez-Torres\, Glenn Ligon\, Julie Mehretu\, Prema Murthy\, Shirin Neshat\, Catherine Opie\, Gabriel Orozco\, Diana Thater\, Rirkrit Tiravanija\, and Kara Walker in a wide range of works including installations\, paintings\, sculptures\, drawings\, prints\, photography\, video\, and digital art.\n\nCome as You Are: Art of the 1990s is organized by the Montclair Art Museum and curated by Alexandra Schwartz\, curator of contemporary art\, with Kimberly Siino\, curatorial assistant. This exhibition is made possible with generous support from The Andy Warhol Foundation for the Visual Arts.\n\nLead support for this exhibition is provided by the University of Michigan Office of the Provost and the University of Michigan Health System. Additional support is provided by Samantha and Ross Partrich\, Andrea and Joel Brown\, the University of Michigan CEW Frances and Sydney Lewis Visiting Leaders Fund\, Department of the History of Art\, Residential College\, and Department of American Culture.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:The Art of Tyree Guyton: A Thirty-Year Journey
DESCRIPTION:The Heidelberg Project is one of the largest\, best-known\, and longest-running site-specific art installations in the country. Occupying more than two blocks along Heidelberg Street on Detroit’s East Side\, the project has transformed its neighborhood\, covering abandoned houses\, the street\, and the surrounding area with collections of found objects and vividly rendered paintings.\n\nCelebrating its 30th anniversary in 2016\, the Heidelberg Project has been the life’s work of artist Tyree Guyton. Guyton grew up on Heidelberg Street\, and was encouraged by his housepainter grandfather to choose art as an alternative to drugs and guns. Guyton began the project with his family\, and with the help of neighborhood children\, they gathered discarded objects\, from toys and clothes to televisions and furniture. They painted abandoned houses on the street with bright housepaints and attached objects to the exteriors\, turning them into gigantic assemblage sculptures.\n\nMost of the houses have a defined theme. The Baby Doll House (now destroyed) was covered from roof to foundation with discarded toy dolls in various states of repair. Similarly\, the Clock House has painted renditions of clocks covering its exterior. The project’s lively and unexpected juxtapositions of objects\, words\, colors\, and symbols create a strange and wonderful immersive world.\n\nThe 30-year anniversary of the Heidelberg Project is a moment for Guyton\, and his audience\, to reflect on what his work has meant to the cultural life of Detroit and beyond. Guyton has created two new works specifically for this exhibition\, one in the studio and one in the project. How Much for the City\, a mixed-media sculpture\, makes reference to his long-standing struggles with city government. On Heidelberg Street\, he is building a full-scale house\; it will rise on the foundation of a house destroyed by arson. The process of its construction can be viewed on the Heidelberg Television monitor in the gallery. The Art of Tyree Guyton will explore the artist’s involvement with the project through the decades\, and also feature a selection of prints and drawings from his more recent studio work.\n\nLead support for this exhibition is provided by the Michigan Council for Arts and Cultural Affairs and the National Endowment for the Arts\, the Andy Warhol Foundation for the Visual Arts\, and Lisa Applebaum. Additional generous support is provided by the University of Michigan Taubman College of Architecture and Urban Planning and School of Social Work.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:ARMENIAN STUDIES PROGRAM LECTURE
DESCRIPTION:Speaker: Alina Poghosyan\, 2015-16 Manoogian Post-doctoral Fellow\, U-M\n\nMigration is not only a movement of people\; it is also a movement and exchange of cultures\, ideas\, technologies\, labor\, money\, and various forms of capital. Migration entails social and cultural change\, as it affects political and economic processes.  Nations in the South Caucasus have migratory ties mainly with Russia\, European countries and the US. What these countries exchange through migration is closely related to their development processes.\n\nThe presentation will explore how Soviet period migrant networks perpetuate migratory processes from the former “colonies” to Russia and instigate new flows of migration. With migratory ties\, social networks\, migrants’ transnational activity Russia maintains its influence on many former “colonies” and on Armenia particularly. Georgia\, on the other hand\, has more migratory ties with EU countries. The case of Georgia’s post-soviet development processes will be deployed as a counterpoint to that of Armenia. The presentation will discuss the variety of migration profiles of the South Caucasus countries\, and will examine how the exchange of cultural\, social and economic capital\, influences different trajectories of development in these countries.\n\nCosponsored by the Center for Russian\, East European and Eurasian Studies (CREES) and the Department of Slavic Languages and Literatures.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:Ethnic Filters: The Political Significance of Priming Latino Identity
DESCRIPTION:Quality research on population subgroups\, including racial and ethnic minorities\, is impeded by the cost of recruiting and retaining representative samples. To minimize costs\, many surveys eschew the practice of ending the survey with demographic questions\, and instead begin by asking participants their race and/or ethnicity. These “ethnic filters\,” as we refer to them\, direct limited resources to reaching and gathering data on the targeted population. However\, these questions also cue an identity laden with social\, economic and political associations. We develop and test a theory about how identity cues at the beginning of surveys of Latino public opinion affect the political preferences that are reported. Using a population-based survey experiment\, we demonstrate that ethnic filter questions affect Latino attitudes across a range of political issues\, and suggest new interpretations of Latino public opinion. Our findings offer insights into the effect of explicit identity cues on Latino public opinion\, as well as the production and analysis of data on racial\, ethnic and other population sub-groups.\n\nMara Cecilia Ostfeld will be an Assistant Professor in the Department of Political Science (beginning in September 2016) at the Ford School of Public Policy. Her research broadly focuses on the relationship between race\, media and political attitudes. Mara received her PhD in political science from the University of Pennsylvania and her MPP from Harvard University's Kennedy School of Government. During national elections\, Mara also works as\nan analyst at NBC and Telemundo.

SUMMARY:Community Service:Health Equity SOUP Dinner
DESCRIPTION:The Sujal M. Parikh Memorial Symposium for Health and Social Justice honors a former University of Michigan Medical School (UMMS) student who passed away in October 2010 after a road accident in Uganda where he was conducting AIDS research as an NIH-Fogarty Clinical Research Scholar. In his short life\, Sujal held leadership positions in several U-M\, national\, and international organizations\, earning the respect and admiration of colleagues around the world. A passionate believer in the collective power of committed individuals to advance health and social justice\, Sujal leveraged his networks within these organizations to make each of them stronger.  Shortly after Sujal’s death\, his parents\, friends\, classmates\, and representatives of the numerous global health organizations to which Sujal contributed\, established a fund in his memory\, with the hope that funds collected would be used to provide support for the kinds of issues and causes about which he was so passionate. The annual Sujal Symposium for Health and Social Justice began as a collaborative effort among friends and colleagues and is the major initiative supported by the memorial fund. Sujal’s unique gift for bringing people together in pursuit of common goals inspired the goals of the symposium\, which include raising awareness of the role that health professionals play in the broader community to improve health equity and social justice\, as well as serving as a “call to action” to get others involved in learning and service opportunities. In advance of the Symposium\, we are hosting the Health Equity SOUP Dinner.  SOUP dinners are microgranting opportunities that celebrate and support meaningful local projects and initiatives\, like yours. Attendees (150-200) receive a meal and a vote and hear pitches about various groups' missions\, endeavors\, and goals. A presenter from each organization has five minutes to share their story -- via powerpoint\, pamphlets\, poster\, whatever -- and answer three questions from the audience. At the event\, attendees eat\, talk\, share resources\, and vote on the project they think benefits the community the most. At the end of the night\, we count the ballots and\, while the winner goes home with the largest portion of the money raised to help them carry out and/or continue their project\, every participating organization will receive a percentage: 30% for 1st place\, 20% for 2nd place\, 10% for 3rd and 4th places\, and 5% for the remaining six organizations.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Exhibit: Stories of Mothers Lost
DESCRIPTION:Every minute of every day\, a woman dies of pregnancy related complications. Stories of Mothers Lost\, an exhibit of handmade quilts from around the world now on display in Lane Hall\, memorializes some of these women.\n\nThe exhibit was initiated by the White Ribbon Alliance for Safe Motherhood (WRA)\, a non-profit membership based organization\, whose goal is to reduce rates of maternal and child mortality. The initiative to obtain these stories was made possible by a United Nations Population Fund grant to the WRA. Following a global call\, there was an overwhelming response of 120 panels from 46 organizations. Stories of Mothers Lost -  a collection of internationally sourced\, hand crafted panels commemorating mothers lost – allows families to express grief and also plays a powerful role as a mechanism for advocacy and communication on an issue that transcends country borders and impacts us all.  \n\nStories of Mothers Lost is supplied by the UM Department of Obstetrics and Gynecology and its Program in Sexual Rights and Reproductive Justice. The exhibit is hosted by the Women’s Studies Department and the Institute for Research on Women and Gender.\n\nStories of Mothers Lost is in Lane Hall through December 11\, 2015.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Gifts of Art presents Light Within the Darkness of Nature: Oil on Canvas
DESCRIPTION:Using palette knives and an intuitive response to her oil paints and surface\, painter Sheryl Budnik first looks carefully at the land or sea\, noticing her emotional response. She paints what she feels is the heart of a place\, finding \"the light within the darkness of nature”\, or Lumen Naturae. This refers to Paracelsus’ Middle Ages idea that the light in nature allows inspiration and intuition to rise from the subconscious. Budnik evokes a memory of land or water with her abstract paintings in order to connect us with the spirit of the earth and leave us with an awareness that we are all nature.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Gifts of Art presents The Color of U-M Sports: Helicopter Photography
DESCRIPTION:As perhaps the world’s only artist-photographer who works primarily from a helicopter\, Dale Fisher captures and transforms his subjects using color\, light and shadows – all while skimming over his subjects at ground speeds of up to 120 miles per hour. In the US Navy\, he began shooting with a camera from the skies as an aerial reconnaissance photographer. In the ‘60s\, Fisher traveled the country in a Ford pickup truck with a camper top darkroom\, towing a rather lengthy trailer with his helicopter. Now working in the digital format\, Fisher currently resides and has his studio on a 200 year old farm in Grass Lake\, Michigan\, and his work can be found in public and private collections across the country.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Gifts of Art presents The Spirit of Place: Oil Paintings
DESCRIPTION:A full time painter\, Laurie Schirmer Carpenter studied art at the University of Colorado\, Denver but has deep ties to the Midwest. She has developed a special interest in the land and skies of this region\, which are often depicted in her paintings. While her paintings are of particular places or things in nature\, they are paintings first – ideas made visual. Most of them result from sketches\, en plein air paintings and photographs made during a walk or bike ride through the countryside. Using these references\, she creates the paintings in her studio that are often a composite of several places. Her oil paintings can be found in many private and corporate collections.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:\"Sonya Clark\" Installation
DESCRIPTION:In \"Sonya Clark\,\" artist and 2014 ArtPrize-winner Sonya Clark exhibits existing and new work which considers the relationship between object and story\, including a new work that incorporates personal stories about hair derived from student engagement at the University of Michigan and from campuses nationwide.\n\nArtist Statement:\n\nI use craft and materials to investigate identity. Simple objects become cultural interfaces. Through them I navigate accord and discord. When trying to unravel complex issues\, I am instinctively drawn to things that connect to my personal narrative as a point of a departure: a comb\, a piece of paper\, or a strand of hair. Charged with agency\, objects have the mysterious ability to reflect or absorb us.  I find my image\, my personal story\, in an object. But it is also the object’s ability to act as a rhizome\, the multiple ways in which it can be discovered or read by a wide audience\, that draws me in. To sustain my practice\, I milk the object\, its potential\, its image\, and its materiality. I manipulate the object in a formal manner to engage the viewer in conversation about collective meaning. Can systematically folded paper effectively use light and shadow in the same manner as an elaborately dyed cloth?  What is the connection between color studies\, combs\, and tapestries?  Can a strand of hair tell a life story? I trust that my stories\, your stories\, our stories are held in the object. In this way\, the everyday “thing” becomes a lens through which we may better see one another.  A visual vocabulary derived from object and image forms a language ranging from the vernacular to the political to the poetic.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Exhibit: Women in Science
DESCRIPTION:Colorful comic book graphics in this panel exhibit invite young U-M Museum of Natural History visitors from every background to see themselves working in STEM fields (Science\, Technology\, Engineering\, and Mathematics)\, and changing the world.\n\nDeveloped by Ann Marie Macara\, a fifth-year graduate student in the U-M Department of Molecular\, Cellular\, and Developmental Biology\, the exhibit features four women scientists whose work had a major impact in their fields. These women persevered against the odds and are powerful role models who continue to inspire young women to follow in their footsteps in STEM.\n\nMary Anning represents Science for her discoveries of fossils from the Jurassic period. Annie Easley personifies Technology as one of the few African-American computer scientists to work at NASA (then NACA) as a ‘human computer’ and who then developed software for rockets. Sarah Goode stands for Engineering as the first African-American woman to receive a US patent for her invention of the folding cabinet bed. Finally\, Wang Zhenyi exemplifies Mathematics for her mathematical models of astronomical events\, including eclipses. \n  \nThe exhibit was made possible through the support of the U-M Life Sciences Institute\; a MAAS Professional Development Award\; the Program in Biomedical Science\; the Department of Molecular\, Cellular\, and Developmental Biology\; the Women in Science and Engineering Program\; and FEMMES (Females Engaged in More Math\, Engineering and the Sciences).

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Passionate Curiosities: Collecting in Egypt & the Near East\, 1880s–1950s
DESCRIPTION:What circumstances formed the artifact-biographies of the collected objects we see in museum display cases? Passionate Curiosities\, curated by Margaret Root\, invites visitors to meet some of the remarkable people—from eminent scientists to missionaries\, from consuls to entrepreneurs\, from scholars to swash-buckling adventurers—who forged the Egyptian and Near Eastern collections of the Kelsey Museum between the 1880s and the 1950s. \n\nThe featured notables all have ties to the State of Michigan and often to the University itself. They include Samuel A. Goudsmit\, co-discoverer of the spin of the electron in 1925\; Harriet Conner\, an unsung missionary in 1880s Cairo\; Henry Gillman\, American consul in Jerusalem in the 1880s\; Dr. David Askren\, an American physician living in Egypt who facilitated massive purchases for Professor Francis W. Kelsey\; and A. M. Todd of Kalamazoo\, a chemist\, global entrepreneur\, and utopian thinker who marketed his distilled mint products across the world at the turn of the last century. One famous dealer these figures worked with was the Lion of Cairo\, Maurice Nahman.\n\nOn view will be some rarely displayed artifacts acquired through the efforts of these collectors\, including large decorated Coptic tunics from Egypt and a volume from the Kelsey’s rare complete edition of the Napoleonic Description de l'Égypte. Wonderful vintage photographs help open up the fascinating backstories of some of the Museum’s most popular artifacts.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:The Land of Open Graves: Photographs from the Undocumented Migration Project
DESCRIPTION:This pop-up exhibition features Michael Wells' original photographs of Jason De Leon's Undocumented Migration Project\, which was the subject of a 2013 exhibition at the Institute for the Humanities gallery. The photographs were featured in De León's new book The Land of Open Graves Living and Dying on the Migrant Trail.\n\nAbout the book:\n\nIn his gripping and provocative debut\, anthropologist Jason De León sheds light on one of the most pressing political issues of our time—the human consequences of US immigration policy.  The Land of Open Graves reveals the suffering and deaths that occur daily in the Sonoran Desert of Arizona as thousands of undocumented migrants attempt to cross the border from Mexico into the United States.\nJason De León is assistant professor of anthropology at the University of Michigan and director of the Undocumented Migration Project\, a long-term anthropological study of clandestine border crossings between Mexico and the United States. His academic work has been featured in numerous media outlets\, including National Public Radio\, the New York Times Magazine\, Al Jazeera\, The Huffington Post\, and Vice magazine. In 2013\, De León was named a National Geographic Emerging Explorer.\n\nMichael Wells has served as the primary photographer for the Undocumented Migration Project since its inception in 2009 and has photographed that project’s ethnographic and archaeological fieldwork in Arizona\, New York\, Mexico\, and Ecuador. A Los Angeles-based photographer\, his work focuses on how people engage with built and natural environments with a unique eye for the materiality of these spaces. He has created photography projects on post-Katrina New Orleans\, the physicality of the US-Mexico border in Southern Arizona and California\, amateur Latino soccer leagues in Los Angeles\, and Latino Communities in the American South. His diverse body of work has been featured in a wide range of media outlets including Architectural Digest\, Archaeology Magazine\, Domus\, Dwell\, Cabinet\, National Geographic\, National Public Radio\, and Textfield. His book publications include Municipal De Futbol (2008) Denim Legends (2008)\, The Legendary Estates of Beverly Hills (2009)\, and Windsor Smith Homefront (2015).

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:SUDDENLY SEXY DETROIT: HOW THE MOTOR CITY BECAME AN ARTISTIC HOTSPOT
DESCRIPTION:“Suddenly Sexy Detroit” examines how the Motor City morphed into an unlikely artistic hotspot\, attracting artists from around the country with its cheap rent\, large spaces and gritty authenticity.  We’ll review older Detroit art movements like the Cass Corridor school\, examine the cult of the “found object” and look at work by some of the city’s most interesting artists.  We’ll also consider how this artistic presence helped set the stage for the city’s recent gentrification.\n\nMichael H. Hodges covers art\, architecture and local museums for The Detroit News\, a beat he’s held since 2007.  Previously he wrote features for the New York Post.  In 2012\, Mr. Hodges published Michigan’s Historic Railroad Stations (Wayne State University Press)\, a photographic essay and history the Library of Michigan named a 2013 Michigan Notable Book.  \n\nThis is the fourth lecture in a six-lecture series entitled “Detroit: Complex Past\, Promising Present\, Uncertain Future.”

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Jem Cohen
DESCRIPTION:The title of this multi-format photography and video installation by New York filmmaker Jem Cohen comes from the artist’s own characterization of his practice.\n	As he explains\, “The unifying core of my work stems from encountering the world as it unfolds. Whether the project is long- or short-term\, moving image or still photography\, single pictures\, multiple projections\, or an installation\, it is through close observation\, careful listening\, and an embrace of chance that I establish the bedrock. . . . Regardless of the tools and the form\, the project is . . . life drawing.”\n	\nThe dual-gallery presentation of Life Drawing at UMMA underscores Cohen’s use of disparate media that\, rooted in a shared set of concerns and working methods\, organically coalesce into a broader body of work.\n	We Have an Anchor\, on view in the Media Gallery\, is a single-channel video projection that incorporates composited 16mm\, Super 8\, and HD imagery. An environmental portrait of Nova Scotia\, it takes its departure point from a live performance with multiple projections where Cohen collaborated with an ensemble of musicians to make what has been described as a cinematic love letter to Nova Scotia's Cape Breton. Footage of the island\, gathered over 10 years\, is interspersed with texts ranging from poems to local folklore\, buoyed by both environmental sounds and an original score written and performed by members from a diverse group of bands\, including Godspeed You! Black Emperor\, Dirty Three\, Fugazi\, White Magic\, Silver Mt. Zion\, and The Quavers.\n	\nIn the Photography Gallery\, more than 25 still photographs\, again gathered over a long period in a disappearing analog format (in this case\, Polaroid film)\, are subtly married to digital technology. The images\, some urban and some domestic\, are from a variety of locations ranging from New York to Tangier. With both the video and the photographs Cohen uses a strategy of free wandering conjoined with careful documentation in order to unearth and celebrate hidden\, seemingly haunted geographies and their human (and animal) inhabitants.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Soviet Constructivist Posters
DESCRIPTION:During the 1920s the Soviet Union emerged on the world stage. The first decade was full of hope for a new social order that would reject the values and traditions of Tsarist rule. Centered in Moscow\, a group of young artists\, spearheaded in part by Vladimir (1899-1982) and Georgy Stenberg (1900-1933)\, championed an art that promoted the egalitarian ideals of the New Order and contributed to the growth of the Soviet Union. Known as the Constructivists\, they advocated for utilitarian art that was easily accessible and spoke to the masses. Among their most provocative and visionary works were posters advertising Soviet films.\n\n	UMMA’s exhibition\, Soviet Constructivist Posters: Branding the New Order features a selection of posters by the Stenbergs and other Constructivists for some of early cinema’s most inventive films including\, Sergei Eisenstein’sOctober and Dziga Vertov’s Man with a Movie Camera.\n\n	Using dynamic compositions\, bold colors\, and emblematic images\, these posters announced that the Soviet Union was a progressive nation that could propel society into a utopian future. Their revolutionary aesthetic became associated with the workers’ movement and helped to shape how it was understood both at home and abroad. Though Constructivism went out of favor in the 1930s with the rise of Joseph Stalin (1878–1953)\, Constructivist designs continued to have an influence abroad. Today\, their legacy can be seen in advertisements and other promotional materials made for the public eye.\n\n	Lead support for this exhibition is provided by the University of Michigan Weiser Center for Emerging Democracies and the Center for Russian\, East European\, and Eurasian Studies.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:CJS Noon Lecture Series
DESCRIPTION:Speaker: Jonathan E. Abel\, Associate Professor\, Comparative Literature and Asian Studies\, Pennsylvania State University\n\nThe Haiti earthquake and the Arab Spring of 2010 brought to light the importance of Twitter as a means of broadcasting realtime facts and unfolding of events around natural disasters and political upheavals\, but the role of fictional tweets has been less well understood.  The use of new media as a means of circulating fiction during times of crisis raises questions about the larger social import of the fictive.\n\nThis talk examines the rise of the 140-character\, stand-alone Japanese novels posted as tweets marked with the hashtag “twnovel” and their role in the first ten days following Japan’s triple disasters of March 11\, 2011\, when fictional tweets became the source of a new reality for readers desperate for narratives not to be found in other outlets.\n\nJonathan E. Abel is the author of Redacted: The Archives of Censorship in Transwar Japan (University of California Press\, 2012) and the co-translator of Azuma Hiroki’s Otaku: Japan’s Database Animals (University of Minnesota Press\, 2008). He is also editor of a special issue of Japan Forum entitled “Beyond Fukushima: The Ethics of Cultural Production in a Post-disaster Japan” (2015).  He is currently working on a book called The New Real: Media\, Marketing\, and Mimesis in Japan.\n\nAbel’s teaching and scholarly interests include global modernism\, literary reception\, translation studies\, and literary and cultural theory. He is currently the Director of Undergraduate Studies for Comparative Literature at Penn State.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Come as You Are: Art of the 1990s
DESCRIPTION:Come as You Are: Art of the 1990s\, the first major museum survey to examine the art of this pivotal decade in its historical context\, showcases over 64 works by 46 artists born or practicing in the United States. The exhibition\, whose title references the 1992 Nirvana song (considered by many an anthem for the decade)\, focuses on three principal themes—debates over “identity politics\,” the digital revolution\, and globalization—and explores a range of geopolitical milestones and social issues through the perspective of artists working at that time. The exhibition also illustrates the diverse ways in which the developments of the 1990s redefined contemporary approaches to artistic practice and\, in the words of exhibition curator Alexandra Schwartz\, “writes a history of the ’90s through the lens of the visual arts.”\n\nCome as You Are looks at the dramatic changes in the art world itself\, including the ongoing culture wars\; issues of artistic freedom and censorship\; the impact of new media and the emergence of video\, sound\, and digital art\; the expansion of the global art market\; and the explosion of art fairs and biennials. It also investigates the art world’s increasing heterogeneity as artists of color\, women artists\, and LGBT artists attained increased prominence. Artists include Doug Aitken\, Felix Gonzalez-Torres\, Glenn Ligon\, Julie Mehretu\, Prema Murthy\, Shirin Neshat\, Catherine Opie\, Gabriel Orozco\, Diana Thater\, Rirkrit Tiravanija\, and Kara Walker in a wide range of works including installations\, paintings\, sculptures\, drawings\, prints\, photography\, video\, and digital art.\n\nCome as You Are: Art of the 1990s is organized by the Montclair Art Museum and curated by Alexandra Schwartz\, curator of contemporary art\, with Kimberly Siino\, curatorial assistant. This exhibition is made possible with generous support from The Andy Warhol Foundation for the Visual Arts.\n\nLead support for this exhibition is provided by the University of Michigan Office of the Provost and the University of Michigan Health System. Additional support is provided by Samantha and Ross Partrich\, Andrea and Joel Brown\, the University of Michigan CEW Frances and Sydney Lewis Visiting Leaders Fund\, Department of the History of Art\, Residential College\, and Department of American Culture.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:The Art of Tyree Guyton: A Thirty-Year Journey
DESCRIPTION:The Heidelberg Project is one of the largest\, best-known\, and longest-running site-specific art installations in the country. Occupying more than two blocks along Heidelberg Street on Detroit’s East Side\, the project has transformed its neighborhood\, covering abandoned houses\, the street\, and the surrounding area with collections of found objects and vividly rendered paintings.\n\nCelebrating its 30th anniversary in 2016\, the Heidelberg Project has been the life’s work of artist Tyree Guyton. Guyton grew up on Heidelberg Street\, and was encouraged by his housepainter grandfather to choose art as an alternative to drugs and guns. Guyton began the project with his family\, and with the help of neighborhood children\, they gathered discarded objects\, from toys and clothes to televisions and furniture. They painted abandoned houses on the street with bright housepaints and attached objects to the exteriors\, turning them into gigantic assemblage sculptures.\n\nMost of the houses have a defined theme. The Baby Doll House (now destroyed) was covered from roof to foundation with discarded toy dolls in various states of repair. Similarly\, the Clock House has painted renditions of clocks covering its exterior. The project’s lively and unexpected juxtapositions of objects\, words\, colors\, and symbols create a strange and wonderful immersive world.\n\nThe 30-year anniversary of the Heidelberg Project is a moment for Guyton\, and his audience\, to reflect on what his work has meant to the cultural life of Detroit and beyond. Guyton has created two new works specifically for this exhibition\, one in the studio and one in the project. How Much for the City\, a mixed-media sculpture\, makes reference to his long-standing struggles with city government. On Heidelberg Street\, he is building a full-scale house\; it will rise on the foundation of a house destroyed by arson. The process of its construction can be viewed on the Heidelberg Television monitor in the gallery. The Art of Tyree Guyton will explore the artist’s involvement with the project through the decades\, and also feature a selection of prints and drawings from his more recent studio work.\n\nLead support for this exhibition is provided by the Michigan Council for Arts and Cultural Affairs and the National Endowment for the Arts\, the Andy Warhol Foundation for the Visual Arts\, and Lisa Applebaum. Additional generous support is provided by the University of Michigan Taubman College of Architecture and Urban Planning and School of Social Work.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:Visiting Writer Q&A
DESCRIPTION:Jamaal May’s first book of poems\, Hum\, is a “bittersweet love song” to the ruined streets of his native Detroit. Boston Review writes\, “In May’s skilled hands\, Keats’s urn becomes a Chinese takeout box and Wordsworth’s abbey spires are belching Zug Island factories.” May’s poetry uses images of technology past and present to render the “hum” that drives human identity and connection. Since Hum’s publication in 2013\, May has won the Beatrice Hawley Award\, the ALA Notable Book Award\, and was a finalist for the NAACP Image award and Kate Tufts Discovery Award. He has also published two chapbooks\, The God Engine and The Whetting of Teeth. \nMay’s poetry has been published in Poetry\, The Believer\, Ploughshares\, New England Review and The Kenyon Review. His work has been recognized by Cave Canem\, Bread Loaf\, the Lannan Foundation\, and the Indiana Review. He has also been a recipient of the Kenyon Review Fellowship at Kenyon College\, Bread Loaf\, Callaloo and the Civitella Ranieri Fellowship.\nMay’s career as an editor and teacher began when he taught poetry in the Detroit public school system. Since then\, he has also been on the faculty of the Vermont College of Fine Arts MFA. He has served as an associate editor of West Branch and the series editor\, graphic designer and filmmaker for the Organic Weapon Arts Chapbook and Video Series. May is also a member of six national poetry slam teams\, including five from Detroit and the NYC-based LouderARTS

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:Lecture: Lecture: \"Thinking with a Photograph: Alexander Gardner at Fort Laramie\, 1868\"
DESCRIPTION:Abstract: How can a photograph prod the historical imagination and push historians to think about the past in new ways? How might we think of photographs as both primary source evidence and documents that push us back into the archives? Focusing on a single image made by Alexander Gardner at the Fort Laramie Treaty negotiations of 1868\, this talk follows a group of characters into a photograph and back out again\, arguing that the most compelling part of an image may lie out of view\, beyond the frame.\n\nMartha A. Sandweiss is Professor of History at Princeton University with particular interests in the history of the American West\, visual culture\, and public history. She received her Ph.D. in history from Yale University and began her career as a photography curator at the Amon Carter Museum in Fort Worth\, Texas. Her publications include \"Passing Strange: A Gilded Age Tale of Love and Deception across the Color Line\" (2009)\, a finalist for the Los Angeles Times Book Prize in History and the National Book Critics Circle Award in Biography\, and \"Print the Legend: Photography and the American West\" (2002)\, winner of the Organization of American Historians’ Ray Allen Billington Award for the best book in American frontier history and the William P. Clements Award. At Princeton\, Sandweiss teaches courses on the history of the American West and on narrative writing\, and currently heads a research project on Princeton and slavery.\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:Workshop / Seminar:Law & Economics
DESCRIPTION:Abstract:\nThe Intimate Partner Violence Triage Study will produce information for service providers of all kinds\, including particularly legal services providers asked to represent victims of intimate partner violence (“IPV”) at adversarial restraining order hearings\, on a critical question:  how should we triage clients to different levels of service when resources are severely constrained?  Currently\, in northeastern Ohio\, a legal aid provider’s resources are sufficient to provide traditional attorney-client representation to approximately one-third of eligible IPV victims who seek permanent restraining orders in adversarial court hearings. One third of such victims receive only self-help assistance materials\, and one-third receive self-help assistance materials plus an explanatory telephone call. In the Study\, eligible and consenting IPV victims will be randomized to one of two triage decision making processes\, either the provider’s current process or a random process.  A comparison of the adjudicatory outputs and the post-court experiences of victims in each group will provide information on the effectiveness of the legal aid provider’s current triage process.  Further\, the randomized arm of the study will allow several other direct and (through the use of instrumental variables techniques) indirect measurements of interest.

SUMMARY:Performance:Shrek
DESCRIPTION:\"Once upon a time\, there was a little ogre named Shrek…\" And thus begins the tale of an unlikely hero who finds himself on a life-changing journey alongside a wisecracking Donkey and a feisty princess who resists rescue. Throw in a short\ntempered bad guy\, a cookie with an attitude\, and over a dozen other fairy tale misfits\, and you've got the kind of mess that calls for a real hero. Luckily\, there's one on hand...and his name is Shrek.\n\nBased on the Oscar-winning DreamWorks Animation film\, Shrek The Musical is a TONY Award-winning fairy tale adventure featuring all new songs from Jeanine Tesori (Thoroughly Modern Millie\, Caroline or Change) and a sidesplitting book by David Lindsay-Abaire. Shrek brings all the beloved characters you know from the film to life on stage\, including a fire-breathing dragon\, and proves there's more to the story than meets the ears.\n\nYPT’s very own local young people take center stage with Shrek\, presenting a treasure trove of irreverent fun for the whole family\, and proving that beauty is truly in the eye of the ogre!

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:Michigan Archaeological Society Lecture: Archaeology in Practice: The Intersection of Progress and Preservation
DESCRIPTION:The majority of archaeology in the United States is conducted as part of cultural resource management (CRM) compliance-based projects. At least 95 percent of the funding in the US for archaeology is spent on CRM\, and over 80 percent of professional archaeologists are employed in CRM positions in the private\, public\, or academic (teaching applied archaeology or conducting CRM investigations within academic institutions). Managing these projects in a way that balances project development with the protection of our rare archaeological resources is a challenging\, often rewarding\, and often frustrating career. Developing relationships with agencies\, clients\, and stakeholders is just as important as developing new field methodologies and staying on schedule and under budget. Managing exciting projects throughout the country goes hand-in-hand with understanding regulatory frameworks of each state and the subtle nuances of tribal coordination and public outreach.

SUMMARY:Performance:Sweet Water Warblers
DESCRIPTION:Imagine yourself as a bird in flight floating on the waves of a gentle fall breeze. Each sweep and plunge has the power to shake you and somehow still cradles you like the hum of a mother’s lullaby or the high of a southern gospel choir. This dynamic among fierce\, tender\, and strikingly familiar is what you can expect from the highly anticipated ensemble of these three front women and songbirds of the Earthwork Music Collective. Powerful singers and songwriters in their own bands\, Rachael Davis (Shout Sister Shout\, The Rachael Davis Band)\, Lindsay Lou (Lindsay Lou and The Flatbellys\, Time & Luck) and May Erlewine (Seth & May\, May Erlewine\, and The Moonlighters) came together upon a festival organizer’s request for the first time as The Sweet Water Warblers in 2014 at the Hoxeyville Music Festival in Northern Michigan.  After a year of touring\, writing and releasing records independently\, they're reuniting with a handful of co-written and hand selected songs for an intimate show that they’re bringing to the Lower Peninsula’s best acoustic music venues.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Exhibit: Stories of Mothers Lost
DESCRIPTION:Every minute of every day\, a woman dies of pregnancy related complications. Stories of Mothers Lost\, an exhibit of handmade quilts from around the world now on display in Lane Hall\, memorializes some of these women.\n\nThe exhibit was initiated by the White Ribbon Alliance for Safe Motherhood (WRA)\, a non-profit membership based organization\, whose goal is to reduce rates of maternal and child mortality. The initiative to obtain these stories was made possible by a United Nations Population Fund grant to the WRA. Following a global call\, there was an overwhelming response of 120 panels from 46 organizations. Stories of Mothers Lost -  a collection of internationally sourced\, hand crafted panels commemorating mothers lost – allows families to express grief and also plays a powerful role as a mechanism for advocacy and communication on an issue that transcends country borders and impacts us all.  \n\nStories of Mothers Lost is supplied by the UM Department of Obstetrics and Gynecology and its Program in Sexual Rights and Reproductive Justice. The exhibit is hosted by the Women’s Studies Department and the Institute for Research on Women and Gender.\n\nStories of Mothers Lost is in Lane Hall through December 11\, 2015.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Gifts of Art presents Light Within the Darkness of Nature: Oil on Canvas
DESCRIPTION:Using palette knives and an intuitive response to her oil paints and surface\, painter Sheryl Budnik first looks carefully at the land or sea\, noticing her emotional response. She paints what she feels is the heart of a place\, finding \"the light within the darkness of nature”\, or Lumen Naturae. This refers to Paracelsus’ Middle Ages idea that the light in nature allows inspiration and intuition to rise from the subconscious. Budnik evokes a memory of land or water with her abstract paintings in order to connect us with the spirit of the earth and leave us with an awareness that we are all nature.

DESCRIPTION:Returning Gifts of Art exhibiting artist Mary Cody designs colorful jewelry with a subtle message meant to inspire creativity and hope. She freely combines tiny 24 kt gold\, palladium and glass beads in her original weavings by \"picking up the pieces\,\" a look that came by accident after costly beads scattered across the floor. Cody sees her work as representing the lessons in our lives – how unforeseen events are often prior to beautiful blessings. Her bead woven jewelry has been in fine art shows from Ann Arbor\, Michigan to Bellevue\, Washington and has been described as miniature works of stained glass.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Gifts of Art presents The Color of U-M Sports: Helicopter Photography
DESCRIPTION:As perhaps the world’s only artist-photographer who works primarily from a helicopter\, Dale Fisher captures and transforms his subjects using color\, light and shadows – all while skimming over his subjects at ground speeds of up to 120 miles per hour. In the US Navy\, he began shooting with a camera from the skies as an aerial reconnaissance photographer. In the ‘60s\, Fisher traveled the country in a Ford pickup truck with a camper top darkroom\, towing a rather lengthy trailer with his helicopter. Now working in the digital format\, Fisher currently resides and has his studio on a 200 year old farm in Grass Lake\, Michigan\, and his work can be found in public and private collections across the country.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Gifts of Art presents The Spirit of Place: Oil Paintings
DESCRIPTION:A full time painter\, Laurie Schirmer Carpenter studied art at the University of Colorado\, Denver but has deep ties to the Midwest. She has developed a special interest in the land and skies of this region\, which are often depicted in her paintings. While her paintings are of particular places or things in nature\, they are paintings first – ideas made visual. Most of them result from sketches\, en plein air paintings and photographs made during a walk or bike ride through the countryside. Using these references\, she creates the paintings in her studio that are often a composite of several places. Her oil paintings can be found in many private and corporate collections.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:\"Sonya Clark\" Installation
DESCRIPTION:In \"Sonya Clark\,\" artist and 2014 ArtPrize-winner Sonya Clark exhibits existing and new work which considers the relationship between object and story\, including a new work that incorporates personal stories about hair derived from student engagement at the University of Michigan and from campuses nationwide.\n\nArtist Statement:\n\nI use craft and materials to investigate identity. Simple objects become cultural interfaces. Through them I navigate accord and discord. When trying to unravel complex issues\, I am instinctively drawn to things that connect to my personal narrative as a point of a departure: a comb\, a piece of paper\, or a strand of hair. Charged with agency\, objects have the mysterious ability to reflect or absorb us.  I find my image\, my personal story\, in an object. But it is also the object’s ability to act as a rhizome\, the multiple ways in which it can be discovered or read by a wide audience\, that draws me in. To sustain my practice\, I milk the object\, its potential\, its image\, and its materiality. I manipulate the object in a formal manner to engage the viewer in conversation about collective meaning. Can systematically folded paper effectively use light and shadow in the same manner as an elaborately dyed cloth?  What is the connection between color studies\, combs\, and tapestries?  Can a strand of hair tell a life story? I trust that my stories\, your stories\, our stories are held in the object. In this way\, the everyday “thing” becomes a lens through which we may better see one another.  A visual vocabulary derived from object and image forms a language ranging from the vernacular to the political to the poetic.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:Drug Discovery Lecture Series — \"Drug discovery in academia: development of advanced pharmacological inhibitors of the menin-MLL interaction\"
DESCRIPTION:How two researchers at University Michigan — Tomasz Cierpicki\, Ph.D.\, and Jolanta Grembecka\, Ph.D. — discovered and developed potent and selective drug-like molecules to treat acute leukemia using biochemical and cell-based assays\, and in vivo models.  The presentation will cover the key steps that made the project successful.\n\n<strong>About the research</strong>\nChromosomal translocations of the MLL gene\, which result in expression of MLL fusion proteins\, are found in acute leukemia affecting both children and adults. The MLL rearranged leukemias are particularly prevalent in infants\, constituting up to 80% of acute leukemia cases in infants. The oncogenic activity of MLL fusion proteins in critically dependent on their direct interaction with menin\, and therefore the menin-MLL interaction represents an attractive target for therapeutic intervention. \n\nThe researchers developed very potent small molecules that specifically bind to menin with low nanomolar affinities and inhibit the menin-MLL interaction in vitro and in human cells. They also optimized drug-like properties of these compounds making them suitable for in vivo studies. These compounds demonstrate strong and specific effect in MLL leukemia cells and block progression of MLL leukemia in vivo in mice without affecting normal hematopoiesis. \n\nTheir efforts have strong potential to result in development of new anti-cancer agents for acute leukemias with MLL translocations. In this presentation\, we will summarize key stages of this project and emphasize critical steps that turned out to be instrumental to successful development of the optimized menin-MLL inhibitors with in vivo efficacy. \n\n<strong>About the speakers</strong>\nTomek Cierpicki\, Ph.D. and Jolanta Grembecka\, Ph.D. are scientific leaders in targeting the menin-MLL interaction. They have licensed their promising class of compounds to Kura Oncology with the goal of translating the science carried out a U-M into clinical trials patients with acute leukemias and other cancers.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Exhibit: Women in Science
DESCRIPTION:Colorful comic book graphics in this panel exhibit invite young U-M Museum of Natural History visitors from every background to see themselves working in STEM fields (Science\, Technology\, Engineering\, and Mathematics)\, and changing the world.\n\nDeveloped by Ann Marie Macara\, a fifth-year graduate student in the U-M Department of Molecular\, Cellular\, and Developmental Biology\, the exhibit features four women scientists whose work had a major impact in their fields. These women persevered against the odds and are powerful role models who continue to inspire young women to follow in their footsteps in STEM.\n\nMary Anning represents Science for her discoveries of fossils from the Jurassic period. Annie Easley personifies Technology as one of the few African-American computer scientists to work at NASA (then NACA) as a ‘human computer’ and who then developed software for rockets. Sarah Goode stands for Engineering as the first African-American woman to receive a US patent for her invention of the folding cabinet bed. Finally\, Wang Zhenyi exemplifies Mathematics for her mathematical models of astronomical events\, including eclipses. \n  \nThe exhibit was made possible through the support of the U-M Life Sciences Institute\; a MAAS Professional Development Award\; the Program in Biomedical Science\; the Department of Molecular\, Cellular\, and Developmental Biology\; the Women in Science and Engineering Program\; and FEMMES (Females Engaged in More Math\, Engineering and the Sciences).

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Passionate Curiosities: Collecting in Egypt & the Near East\, 1880s–1950s
DESCRIPTION:What circumstances formed the artifact-biographies of the collected objects we see in museum display cases? Passionate Curiosities\, curated by Margaret Root\, invites visitors to meet some of the remarkable people—from eminent scientists to missionaries\, from consuls to entrepreneurs\, from scholars to swash-buckling adventurers—who forged the Egyptian and Near Eastern collections of the Kelsey Museum between the 1880s and the 1950s. \n\nThe featured notables all have ties to the State of Michigan and often to the University itself. They include Samuel A. Goudsmit\, co-discoverer of the spin of the electron in 1925\; Harriet Conner\, an unsung missionary in 1880s Cairo\; Henry Gillman\, American consul in Jerusalem in the 1880s\; Dr. David Askren\, an American physician living in Egypt who facilitated massive purchases for Professor Francis W. Kelsey\; and A. M. Todd of Kalamazoo\, a chemist\, global entrepreneur\, and utopian thinker who marketed his distilled mint products across the world at the turn of the last century. One famous dealer these figures worked with was the Lion of Cairo\, Maurice Nahman.\n\nOn view will be some rarely displayed artifacts acquired through the efforts of these collectors\, including large decorated Coptic tunics from Egypt and a volume from the Kelsey’s rare complete edition of the Napoleonic Description de l'Égypte. Wonderful vintage photographs help open up the fascinating backstories of some of the Museum’s most popular artifacts. Come discover who brought the Kelsey’s child mummy home from Egypt in the 1880s and who gave us the coffin of Djehutymose in 1906!

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Jem Cohen
DESCRIPTION:The title of this multi-format photography and video installation by New York filmmaker Jem Cohen comes from the artist’s own characterization of his practice.\n	As he explains\, “The unifying core of my work stems from encountering the world as it unfolds. Whether the project is long- or short-term\, moving image or still photography\, single pictures\, multiple projections\, or an installation\, it is through close observation\, careful listening\, and an embrace of chance that I establish the bedrock. . . . Regardless of the tools and the form\, the project is . . . life drawing.”\n	\nThe dual-gallery presentation of Life Drawing at UMMA underscores Cohen’s use of disparate media that\, rooted in a shared set of concerns and working methods\, organically coalesce into a broader body of work.\n	We Have an Anchor\, on view in the Media Gallery\, is a single-channel video projection that incorporates composited 16mm\, Super 8\, and HD imagery. An environmental portrait of Nova Scotia\, it takes its departure point from a live performance with multiple projections where Cohen collaborated with an ensemble of musicians to make what has been described as a cinematic love letter to Nova Scotia's Cape Breton. Footage of the island\, gathered over 10 years\, is interspersed with texts ranging from poems to local folklore\, buoyed by both environmental sounds and an original score written and performed by members from a diverse group of bands\, including Godspeed You! Black Emperor\, Dirty Three\, Fugazi\, White Magic\, Silver Mt. Zion\, and The Quavers.\n	\nIn the Photography Gallery\, more than 25 still photographs\, again gathered over a long period in a disappearing analog format (in this case\, Polaroid film)\, are subtly married to digital technology. The images\, some urban and some domestic\, are from a variety of locations ranging from New York to Tangier. With both the video and the photographs Cohen uses a strategy of free wandering conjoined with careful documentation in order to unearth and celebrate hidden\, seemingly haunted geographies and their human (and animal) inhabitants.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Soviet Constructivist Posters
DESCRIPTION:During the 1920s the Soviet Union emerged on the world stage. The first decade was full of hope for a new social order that would reject the values and traditions of Tsarist rule. Centered in Moscow\, a group of young artists\, spearheaded in part by Vladimir (1899-1982) and Georgy Stenberg (1900-1933)\, championed an art that promoted the egalitarian ideals of the New Order and contributed to the growth of the Soviet Union. Known as the Constructivists\, they advocated for utilitarian art that was easily accessible and spoke to the masses. Among their most provocative and visionary works were posters advertising Soviet films.\n\n	UMMA’s exhibition\, Soviet Constructivist Posters: Branding the New Order features a selection of posters by the Stenbergs and other Constructivists for some of early cinema’s most inventive films including\, Sergei Eisenstein’sOctober and Dziga Vertov’s Man with a Movie Camera.\n\n	Using dynamic compositions\, bold colors\, and emblematic images\, these posters announced that the Soviet Union was a progressive nation that could propel society into a utopian future. Their revolutionary aesthetic became associated with the workers’ movement and helped to shape how it was understood both at home and abroad. Though Constructivism went out of favor in the 1930s with the rise of Joseph Stalin (1878–1953)\, Constructivist designs continued to have an influence abroad. Today\, their legacy can be seen in advertisements and other promotional materials made for the public eye.\n\n	Lead support for this exhibition is provided by the University of Michigan Weiser Center for Emerging Democracies and the Center for Russian\, East European\, and Eurasian Studies.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Come as You Are: Art of the 1990s
DESCRIPTION:Come as You Are: Art of the 1990s\, the first major museum survey to examine the art of this pivotal decade in its historical context\, showcases over 64 works by 46 artists born or practicing in the United States. The exhibition\, whose title references the 1992 Nirvana song (considered by many an anthem for the decade)\, focuses on three principal themes—debates over “identity politics\,” the digital revolution\, and globalization—and explores a range of geopolitical milestones and social issues through the perspective of artists working at that time. The exhibition also illustrates the diverse ways in which the developments of the 1990s redefined contemporary approaches to artistic practice and\, in the words of exhibition curator Alexandra Schwartz\, “writes a history of the ’90s through the lens of the visual arts.”\n\nCome as You Are looks at the dramatic changes in the art world itself\, including the ongoing culture wars\; issues of artistic freedom and censorship\; the impact of new media and the emergence of video\, sound\, and digital art\; the expansion of the global art market\; and the explosion of art fairs and biennials. It also investigates the art world’s increasing heterogeneity as artists of color\, women artists\, and LGBT artists attained increased prominence. Artists include Doug Aitken\, Felix Gonzalez-Torres\, Glenn Ligon\, Julie Mehretu\, Prema Murthy\, Shirin Neshat\, Catherine Opie\, Gabriel Orozco\, Diana Thater\, Rirkrit Tiravanija\, and Kara Walker in a wide range of works including installations\, paintings\, sculptures\, drawings\, prints\, photography\, video\, and digital art.\n\nCome as You Are: Art of the 1990s is organized by the Montclair Art Museum and curated by Alexandra Schwartz\, curator of contemporary art\, with Kimberly Siino\, curatorial assistant. This exhibition is made possible with generous support from The Andy Warhol Foundation for the Visual Arts.\n\nLead support for this exhibition is provided by the University of Michigan Office of the Provost and the University of Michigan Health System. Additional support is provided by Samantha and Ross Partrich\, Andrea and Joel Brown\, the University of Michigan CEW Frances and Sydney Lewis Visiting Leaders Fund\, Department of the History of Art\, Residential College\, and Department of American Culture.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:EIHS Workshop: \"Complicating the Color Line\"
DESCRIPTION:Different local histories of racial segregation in North America and the Caribbean shed light on the complexity of discriminations based on perceptions of racial difference. Our panelists explore the ways that historical efforts to separate populations based on race have at times produced rigid vocabularies (the “color line”) that are sometimes duplicated in the language used by historians. These projects\, on the other hand\, all shed light on the ways that lines of inclusion and exclusion might shift and evolve according to the pressures and demands of local context\, suggesting that a more complicated politics may be at work.\n\nPanelists include:\n\nMartha A. Sandweiss\, Professor of History\, Princeton University\;\nMorgan Carlton\, Ph.D. Student in History\, University of Michigan\;\nNora Krinitsky\, Ph.D. Candidate in History\, University of Michigan\;\nAmanda Reid\, Ph.D. Student in History\, University of Michigan\;\nMichael Witgen (chair)\, Associate Professor of History and American Culture\, University of Michigan.\n\nFree and open to the public. Lunch provided.\n\nThis event is part of the Friday Series of the Eisenberg Institute for Historical Studies. It is made possible by a generous contribution from Kenneth and Frances Aftel Eisenberg.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:Latina/o Studies Workshop
DESCRIPTION:The Latina/o Studies Workshop would like to invited you to workshop ToniAnn Treviño's paper titled \"Narcotics\, Family Networks\, and State Imposition of Stigma: Policing the Mexican Community in Texas Through Kinship\, 1951-1959\" in preparation for her upcoming participation at the Newberry Seminar in Borderlands and Latino/a Studies.\n\nAbstract: \nThis paper investigates how federal and local officials viewed Mexican families as potential threats due to kinship networks that allegedly doubled as criminal affiliations. Although U.S. immigration law often privileges the family unit\, 1950s initiatives in immigration and narcotics control intersected to investigate kinship networks in Mexican communities as potential criminal connections. Surveillance over Mexican communities investigated unwieldy Mexican masculinities and femininities in criminal families during a racialized\, political moment in which Senator Price Daniel and other federal policymakers advocated for heightened minimum sentencing\, increased border policing to decrease the flow of Mexican narcotics and criminals\, and heightened INS inspection of Mexican bodies. In the context of the drug wars in America\, Texas served as a primary space where federal and local actors experimented with methods to apprehend Mexicans who allegedly violated narcotics laws\, as well as to apply punitive measures aimed to reduce Mexican crime flows\, due to the state’s large Mexican-heritage population and border with Mexico. This work analyzes Texas Senator Price Daniel’s papers\, correspondence between U.S. federal officials and the Mexican consulate\, Senate Hearing notes\, arrest records\, and photographs from the Texas Department of Public Safety’s narcotics raids to consider the ways in which state actors created the image of Mexican criminality. Federal lawmakers framed white addicts as victims when compared to the innate\, familial inclinations of Mexican crime and addiction. This research asserts that local law enforcement officers documented the Mexican criminal image through photographs of Mexican families at the center of narcotics operations\, and the spatial mapping of criminal Mexican homes in the urban geography.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:The Art of Tyree Guyton: A Thirty-Year Journey
DESCRIPTION:The Heidelberg Project is one of the largest\, best-known\, and longest-running site-specific art installations in the country. Occupying more than two blocks along Heidelberg Street on Detroit’s East Side\, the project has transformed its neighborhood\, covering abandoned houses\, the street\, and the surrounding area with collections of found objects and vividly rendered paintings.\n\nCelebrating its 30th anniversary in 2016\, the Heidelberg Project has been the life’s work of artist Tyree Guyton. Guyton grew up on Heidelberg Street\, and was encouraged by his housepainter grandfather to choose art as an alternative to drugs and guns. Guyton began the project with his family\, and with the help of neighborhood children\, they gathered discarded objects\, from toys and clothes to televisions and furniture. They painted abandoned houses on the street with bright housepaints and attached objects to the exteriors\, turning them into gigantic assemblage sculptures.\n\nMost of the houses have a defined theme. The Baby Doll House (now destroyed) was covered from roof to foundation with discarded toy dolls in various states of repair. Similarly\, the Clock House has painted renditions of clocks covering its exterior. The project’s lively and unexpected juxtapositions of objects\, words\, colors\, and symbols create a strange and wonderful immersive world.\n\nThe 30-year anniversary of the Heidelberg Project is a moment for Guyton\, and his audience\, to reflect on what his work has meant to the cultural life of Detroit and beyond. Guyton has created two new works specifically for this exhibition\, one in the studio and one in the project. How Much for the City\, a mixed-media sculpture\, makes reference to his long-standing struggles with city government. On Heidelberg Street\, he is building a full-scale house\; it will rise on the foundation of a house destroyed by arson. The process of its construction can be viewed on the Heidelberg Television monitor in the gallery. The Art of Tyree Guyton will explore the artist’s involvement with the project through the decades\, and also feature a selection of prints and drawings from his more recent studio work.\n\nLead support for this exhibition is provided by the Michigan Council for Arts and Cultural Affairs and the National Endowment for the Arts\, the Andy Warhol Foundation for the Visual Arts\, and Lisa Applebaum. Additional generous support is provided by the University of Michigan Taubman College of Architecture and Urban Planning and School of Social Work.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:Seeing\, Sensing\, Knowing: Sex Workers and the Production of Queer Feeling
DESCRIPTION:What does “seeing” tell us about the subjective experiences of those whose life stories we are invested in knowing? And how does the visual presence of the speaking subject of auto/biography complicate narratives of their lives? This talk considers two books of photography that document the lives of the residents of a home for retired sex workers in Mexico City. This paper probes the ways forms of representation that combine auto/biographical narrative with visual documentation transform our affective encounters with the social and sexual lives of sex workers in order to question the kinds of interpretive practices we bring to these knowledge projects. \n\nJuana María Rodriguez is Professor of Gender and Women's Studies and Performance Studies at the University of California\, Berkeley. She is the author of Sexual Futures\, Queer Gestures\, and Other Latina Longings (2014) and Queer Latinidad: Identity Practices\, Discursive Spaces.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:Smith Lecture: The Importance of Phyllosilicate Deformation on the Spectrum of Fault Slip Behaviors
DESCRIPTION:Displacement along tectonic plate boundaries is largely accommodated within narrow zones of intensely deformed and metamorphosed rock. Historically\, these plate boundary fault zones have been categorized as either steadily creeping or seismogenic and capable of rapid and destructive slip. Recent advances in geophysical monitoring and an increase in the number of catalogued and characterized earthquakes reveal that fault zone deformation encompasses a spectrum of slip behaviors between these end-members. I will present experimental deformation studies and structural observations of serpentinites and clay-rich gouge from the San Andreas Fault that show phyllosilicates impart an important control on fault zone mechanics over the full spectrum of slip behavior. Convergent and some strike-slip plate boundaries are dominated by phyllosilicate-rich lithologies\, yet the structure and mechanics of these rocks are not well constrained. I will discuss how deformation processes in these rocks deviate from our standard models of fault zones\, and the implications of these differences for seismic hazards.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:Beyond Belief: Portraits of Two Eminent Buddhist Monks of the Early Fifteenth Century
DESCRIPTION:Rare and distinctive portraits of the Chinese Chan Buddhist master Daoyan (1335-1418)\, also known as Yao Guangxiao\, and of the Tibetan Buddhist master Shakya Yeshe (1354-1439) speak to the influence of Buddhism at the early Ming court\, document the tangible rewards conferred on eminent Buddhist clerics by early Ming emperors\, and reflect the cosmopolitan character of belief in the Ming capital cities\, Nanjing and Beijing. Produced in different mediums--painting\, embroidery\, and tapestry (kesi)--these portraits convey the opulence of the Buddhist material culture that was created by the court for favored individuals and monasteries in China and was transmitted in various permutations beyond the Chinese frontiers through a transnational network of Buddhist monasteries that stretched eastward to Japan and westward to the Himalayas. Considered together\, these very different images illuminate the use of the Buddhist art\, ritual objects\, and material goods in early Ming domestic politics and international relations.\n\nPhoto caption: Portrait of Daoyan (a.k.a.Yao Guangxiao)\, Hanging scroll\, ink and colors on silk\, Ming Dynasty\, Collection of the Palace Museum\, Beijing

DESCRIPTION:This lecture will explore the history of war music in Israel\, with a focus on how musicians have helped facilitate postwar catharsis in public rituals of commemoration. Of special concern will be the ethnographic and experiential dimensions of these performances\, as we examine how Israelis musically remember times of war and internalize a sense of personal agency within national narratives of the violent past.

SUMMARY:Performance:Shrek
DESCRIPTION:\"Once upon a time\, there was a little ogre named Shrek…\" And thus begins the tale of an unlikely hero who finds himself on a life-changing journey alongside a wisecracking Donkey and a feisty princess who resists rescue. Throw in a short\ntempered bad guy\, a cookie with an attitude\, and over a dozen other fairy tale misfits\, and you've got the kind of mess that calls for a real hero. Luckily\, there's one on hand...and his name is Shrek.\n\nBased on the Oscar-winning DreamWorks Animation film\, Shrek The Musical is a TONY Award-winning fairy tale adventure featuring all new songs from Jeanine Tesori (Thoroughly Modern Millie\, Caroline or Change) and a sidesplitting book by David Lindsay-Abaire. Shrek brings all the beloved characters you know from the film to life on stage\, including a fire-breathing dragon\, and proves there's more to the story than meets the ears.\n\nYPT’s very own local young people take center stage with Shrek\, presenting a treasure trove of irreverent fun for the whole family\, and proving that beauty is truly in the eye of the ogre!

SUMMARY:Performance:Jon McLaughlin
DESCRIPTION:Jon McLaughlin has been playing piano and making music since childhood. He was born and raised in Indiana\, and eventually ended up at Anderson University\, also in Indiana. With the support of the university’s record label\, Oranghaus\, a few friends and an old Chevy van\, McLaughlin wrote and recorded music\, and toured extensively throughout his college years before he was signed to Island Records in 2006. The following eight years had one common denominator for Jon McLaughlin: writing and producing songs\, releasing albums\, driving around the country playing music with his band and collaborating with fellow artists like Sara Bareilles\, Demi Lovato\, Xenia and Need to Breathe\, among others. He has shared the stage with artists such as Kelly Clarkson\, Adele\, One Republic\, Bon Jovi\, Colbie Caillat\, Parachute\, and Duffy. And\, in 2014\, a dream came true when Jon supported the legendary piano man himself\, Billy Joel\, in selected dates across the country (including one at the Palace of Auburn Hills). Songwriter Tess Henley opens.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Gifts of Art presents The Color of U-M Sports: Helicopter Photography
DESCRIPTION:As perhaps the world’s only artist-photographer who works primarily from a helicopter\, Dale Fisher captures and transforms his subjects using color\, light and shadows – all while skimming over his subjects at ground speeds of up to 120 miles per hour. In the US Navy\, he began shooting with a camera from the skies as an aerial reconnaissance photographer. In the ‘60s\, Fisher traveled the country in a Ford pickup truck with a camper top darkroom\, towing a rather lengthy trailer with his helicopter. Now working in the digital format\, Fisher currently resides and has his studio on a 200 year old farm in Grass Lake\, Michigan\, and his work can be found in public and private collections across the country.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Gifts of Art presents The Spirit of Place: Oil Paintings
DESCRIPTION:A full time painter\, Laurie Schirmer Carpenter studied art at the University of Colorado\, Denver but has deep ties to the Midwest. She has developed a special interest in the land and skies of this region\, which are often depicted in her paintings. While her paintings are of particular places or things in nature\, they are paintings first – ideas made visual. Most of them result from sketches\, en plein air paintings and photographs made during a walk or bike ride through the countryside. Using these references\, she creates the paintings in her studio that are often a composite of several places. Her oil paintings can be found in many private and corporate collections.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Exhibit: Women in Science
DESCRIPTION:Colorful comic book graphics in this panel exhibit invite young U-M Museum of Natural History visitors from every background to see themselves working in STEM fields (Science\, Technology\, Engineering\, and Mathematics)\, and changing the world.\n\nDeveloped by Ann Marie Macara\, a fifth-year graduate student in the U-M Department of Molecular\, Cellular\, and Developmental Biology\, the exhibit features four women scientists whose work had a major impact in their fields. These women persevered against the odds and are powerful role models who continue to inspire young women to follow in their footsteps in STEM.\n\nMary Anning represents Science for her discoveries of fossils from the Jurassic period. Annie Easley personifies Technology as one of the few African-American computer scientists to work at NASA (then NACA) as a ‘human computer’ and who then developed software for rockets. Sarah Goode stands for Engineering as the first African-American woman to receive a US patent for her invention of the folding cabinet bed. Finally\, Wang Zhenyi exemplifies Mathematics for her mathematical models of astronomical events\, including eclipses. \n  \nThe exhibit was made possible through the support of the U-M Life Sciences Institute\; a MAAS Professional Development Award\; the Program in Biomedical Science\; the Department of Molecular\, Cellular\, and Developmental Biology\; the Women in Science and Engineering Program\; and FEMMES (Females Engaged in More Math\, Engineering and the Sciences).

SUMMARY:Conference / Symposium:2015 Sujal Symposium for Health and Social Justice: Mind the Gap\, Build the Movement
DESCRIPTION:The Sujal M. Parikh Memorial Symposium for Health and Social Justice honors a former University of Michigan Medical School (UMMS) student who passed away in October 2010 after a road accident in Uganda where he was conducting AIDS research as an NIH-Fogarty Clinical Research Scholar. In his short life\, Sujal held leadership positions in several U-M\, national\, and international organizations\, earning the respect and admiration of colleagues around the world. A passionate believer in the collective power of committed individuals to advance health and social justice\, Sujal leveraged his networks within these organizations to make each of them stronger.  Shortly after Sujal’s death\, his parents\, friends\, classmates\, and representatives of the numerous global health organizations to which Sujal contributed\, established a fund in his memory\, with the hope that funds collected would be used to provide support for the kinds of issues and causes about which he was so passionate. The annual Sujal Symposium for Health and Social Justice began as a collaborative effort among friends and colleagues and is the major initiative supported by the memorial fund. Sujal’s unique gift for bringing people together in pursuit of common goals inspired the goals of the symposium\, which include raising awareness of the role that health professionals play in the broader community to improve health equity and social justice\, as well as serving as a “call to action” to get others involved in learning and service opportunities. Each year\, the symposium brings together more than 200 students and professionals from academia\, health professions\, non-profit organizations\, and the general public. Participants learn from one another\, create lasting connections\, and generate new ideas for the advancement of health and social justice. This ever-growing community remains committed to carrying on Sujal’s work and ensuring that his spirit of compassion continues to inspire a better world.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Soviet Constructivist Posters
DESCRIPTION:During the 1920s the Soviet Union emerged on the world stage. The first decade was full of hope for a new social order that would reject the values and traditions of Tsarist rule. Centered in Moscow\, a group of young artists\, spearheaded in part by Vladimir (1899-1982) and Georgy Stenberg (1900-1933)\, championed an art that promoted the egalitarian ideals of the New Order and contributed to the growth of the Soviet Union. Known as the Constructivists\, they advocated for utilitarian art that was easily accessible and spoke to the masses. Among their most provocative and visionary works were posters advertising Soviet films.\n\n	UMMA’s exhibition\, Soviet Constructivist Posters: Branding the New Order features a selection of posters by the Stenbergs and other Constructivists for some of early cinema’s most inventive films including\, Sergei Eisenstein’sOctober and Dziga Vertov’s Man with a Movie Camera.\n\n	Using dynamic compositions\, bold colors\, and emblematic images\, these posters announced that the Soviet Union was a progressive nation that could propel society into a utopian future. Their revolutionary aesthetic became associated with the workers’ movement and helped to shape how it was understood both at home and abroad. Though Constructivism went out of favor in the 1930s with the rise of Joseph Stalin (1878–1953)\, Constructivist designs continued to have an influence abroad. Today\, their legacy can be seen in advertisements and other promotional materials made for the public eye.\n\n	Lead support for this exhibition is provided by the University of Michigan Weiser Center for Emerging Democracies and the Center for Russian\, East European\, and Eurasian Studies.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Come as You Are: Art of the 1990s
DESCRIPTION:Come as You Are: Art of the 1990s\, the first major museum survey to examine the art of this pivotal decade in its historical context\, showcases over 64 works by 46 artists born or practicing in the United States. The exhibition\, whose title references the 1992 Nirvana song (considered by many an anthem for the decade)\, focuses on three principal themes—debates over “identity politics\,” the digital revolution\, and globalization—and explores a range of geopolitical milestones and social issues through the perspective of artists working at that time. The exhibition also illustrates the diverse ways in which the developments of the 1990s redefined contemporary approaches to artistic practice and\, in the words of exhibition curator Alexandra Schwartz\, “writes a history of the ’90s through the lens of the visual arts.”\n\nCome as You Are looks at the dramatic changes in the art world itself\, including the ongoing culture wars\; issues of artistic freedom and censorship\; the impact of new media and the emergence of video\, sound\, and digital art\; the expansion of the global art market\; and the explosion of art fairs and biennials. It also investigates the art world’s increasing heterogeneity as artists of color\, women artists\, and LGBT artists attained increased prominence. Artists include Doug Aitken\, Felix Gonzalez-Torres\, Glenn Ligon\, Julie Mehretu\, Prema Murthy\, Shirin Neshat\, Catherine Opie\, Gabriel Orozco\, Diana Thater\, Rirkrit Tiravanija\, and Kara Walker in a wide range of works including installations\, paintings\, sculptures\, drawings\, prints\, photography\, video\, and digital art.\n\nCome as You Are: Art of the 1990s is organized by the Montclair Art Museum and curated by Alexandra Schwartz\, curator of contemporary art\, with Kimberly Siino\, curatorial assistant. This exhibition is made possible with generous support from The Andy Warhol Foundation for the Visual Arts.\n\nLead support for this exhibition is provided by the University of Michigan Office of the Provost and the University of Michigan Health System. Additional support is provided by Samantha and Ross Partrich\, Andrea and Joel Brown\, the University of Michigan CEW Frances and Sydney Lewis Visiting Leaders Fund\, Department of the History of Art\, Residential College\, and Department of American Culture.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:The Art of Tyree Guyton: A Thirty-Year Journey
DESCRIPTION:The Heidelberg Project is one of the largest\, best-known\, and longest-running site-specific art installations in the country. Occupying more than two blocks along Heidelberg Street on Detroit’s East Side\, the project has transformed its neighborhood\, covering abandoned houses\, the street\, and the surrounding area with collections of found objects and vividly rendered paintings.\n\nCelebrating its 30th anniversary in 2016\, the Heidelberg Project has been the life’s work of artist Tyree Guyton. Guyton grew up on Heidelberg Street\, and was encouraged by his housepainter grandfather to choose art as an alternative to drugs and guns. Guyton began the project with his family\, and with the help of neighborhood children\, they gathered discarded objects\, from toys and clothes to televisions and furniture. They painted abandoned houses on the street with bright housepaints and attached objects to the exteriors\, turning them into gigantic assemblage sculptures.\n\nMost of the houses have a defined theme. The Baby Doll House (now destroyed) was covered from roof to foundation with discarded toy dolls in various states of repair. Similarly\, the Clock House has painted renditions of clocks covering its exterior. The project’s lively and unexpected juxtapositions of objects\, words\, colors\, and symbols create a strange and wonderful immersive world.\n\nThe 30-year anniversary of the Heidelberg Project is a moment for Guyton\, and his audience\, to reflect on what his work has meant to the cultural life of Detroit and beyond. Guyton has created two new works specifically for this exhibition\, one in the studio and one in the project. How Much for the City\, a mixed-media sculpture\, makes reference to his long-standing struggles with city government. On Heidelberg Street\, he is building a full-scale house\; it will rise on the foundation of a house destroyed by arson. The process of its construction can be viewed on the Heidelberg Television monitor in the gallery. The Art of Tyree Guyton will explore the artist’s involvement with the project through the decades\, and also feature a selection of prints and drawings from his more recent studio work.\n\nLead support for this exhibition is provided by the Michigan Council for Arts and Cultural Affairs and the National Endowment for the Arts\, the Andy Warhol Foundation for the Visual Arts\, and Lisa Applebaum. Additional generous support is provided by the University of Michigan Taubman College of Architecture and Urban Planning and School of Social Work.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Passionate Curiosities: Collecting in Egypt & the Near East\, 1880s–1950s
DESCRIPTION:What circumstances formed the artifact-biographies of the collected objects we see in museum display cases? Passionate Curiosities\, curated by Margaret Root\, invites visitors to meet some of the remarkable people—from eminent scientists to missionaries\, from consuls to entrepreneurs\, from scholars to swash-buckling adventurers—who forged the Egyptian and Near Eastern collections of the Kelsey Museum between the 1880s and the 1950s. \n\nThe featured notables all have ties to the State of Michigan and often to the University itself. They include Samuel A. Goudsmit\, co-discoverer of the spin of the electron in 1925\; Harriet Conner\, an unsung missionary in 1880s Cairo\; Henry Gillman\, American consul in Jerusalem in the 1880s\; Dr. David Askren\, an American physician living in Egypt who facilitated massive purchases for Professor Francis W. Kelsey\; and A. M. Todd of Kalamazoo\, a chemist\, global entrepreneur\, and utopian thinker who marketed his distilled mint products across the world at the turn of the last century. One famous dealer these figures worked with was the Lion of Cairo\, Maurice Nahman.\n\nOn view will be some rarely displayed artifacts acquired through the efforts of these collectors\, including large decorated Coptic tunics from Egypt and a volume from the Kelsey’s rare complete edition of the Napoleonic Description de l'Égypte. Wonderful vintage photographs help open up the fascinating backstories of some of the Museum’s most popular artifacts. Come discover who brought the Kelsey’s child mummy home from Egypt in the 1880s and who gave us the coffin of Djehutymose in 1906!

SUMMARY:Performance:Dieterle Corn Crib Fundraiser
DESCRIPTION:The Ark\, in conjunction with The RFD Boys\, hosts a fundraiser for the Richard V.A. Dieterle Memorial Bandstand (aka \"Dieterle's Corn Crib\") on Saturday\, November 21\, 2015. The Boys will be joined on stage with The Chenille Sisters\, Raisin Pickers and a host of other musical friends to help fund an entertainment stage on the grounds of the Webster Township Historical Society (WTHS). The WTHS formed in the 1980s to preserve the local history of nearby Webster Township\, and continues to serve as the location for the yearly Webster Fall Festival. Beginning in the early 1990s\, Dick was a fixture at the Festival\, where he volunteered and played with the RFD Boys. At the time of Dick's passing in 2012 many friends and neighbors donated money to the WTHS in his memory\, and these funds are being put toward this entertainment stage. The stage has been designed to look like a corn crib\, which will blend with the other historical buildings on the WTHS grounds as well as speak to Dick's country and bluegrass roots. We hope that this new venue will be a place where music and Dick's memory can live on alongside the traditions of our local heritage.
