SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Fall Game Jam 2016
DESCRIPTION:Come join WolverineSoft for our annual 48-Hour Fall Game Design Competition!Spend a weekend in the Dude making a video game from scratch\, and win fabulous prizes! Come alone\, or with a team of up to four. Registration begins on Friday at 5:00 PM. We will also offer free pizza for all participants on Saturday at 6:00 PM.What is a Game Jam?A Game Jam (akin to a musical jam session) is a condensed length of time for developers to get together and create a video game. Game Jams provide a fun\, collaborative environment with many teams participating\, as well as a way for developers to test their own skills and see what they can accomplish in a short amount of time. At the end of the Jam\, teams play each others' creations and vote on their favorite games.There are prizes for the best teams\, but the real experience of a Game Jam is the knowledge gained during your development. The difference is immense between someone who has never completed a game\, and someone who has completed even a small one. Much of the development cycle happens AFTER the game is finished (polishing\, deployment\, marketing\, etc.) and much of the knowledge of game development comes from working on a project with a team\, and seeing it to completion.If any of this sounds interesting\, please come join us this weekend! We will be hosting tutorials in the first few hours of the Jam\, so no prior experience is necessary. Whether you are a programmer\, artist\, musician\, designer\, or just someone who wants to learn how to make games\, we look forward to seeing you there!

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Gifts of Art presents Avian Vessels: Mixed Media Sculpture
DESCRIPTION:Cincinnati based sculptor Karen Heyl has been professionally sculpting stone since 1984. She is best known for bas-relief limestone sculptures\, but in 2011 she developed an interest in sculpting clay using a similar relief carving technique. Out of this came an artistic exploration and refinement of birds using ceramic vessels as the starting point. Whimsical additions such as tails and beaks give each bird an individual personality. Each bird is perched on an individually carved limestone base to enhance the unique qualities that each bird displays. Heyl’s affinity for nature extends from her art to her love of gardening and the occasional golf game.

The symposium asks: In a time when humans have been fundamentally displaced from their presumed place of privilege\, philosophically as well as experientially\, should the disciplines of architecture and landscape architecture consider displacing themselves as well\, in order to establish new affiliations and avail new ways to approach contemporary questions of design in relation to the environment?\nBy bringing designers and scholars from these fields together the symposium and exhibition will highlight projects and ideas that are engaged with these issues from a variety of perspectives\, ranging from scale and experience to questions of matter. Participants will present research and work that use tactics of mediation to understand\, imagine\, interrupt\, and invent artifacts that exist at the large spatial and slow temporal scale of the Anthropocene.\nAmbiguous Territory will present design ideas and proposals from architects\, artists\, and landscape architects whose work challenges their disciplinary boundaries and long-held anthropocentric orientation and redefines the relationship between built and natural environments in an era of ecological anxiety.\nChairs:       \nKathy Velikov\, Associate Professor at the University of Michigan and principal of RVTR\nCathryn Dwyre\, Visiting Associate Professor at Pratt institute School of Architecture and partner at pneumastudio\nChris Perry\, Associate Professor at Rensselaer Architecture and partner at pneumastudio\nDavid Salomon\, Assistant Professor of Art History at Ithaca College.\nKeynotes:\nLiam Young\, urbanist\, designer and futurist\; founder of the futures think tank Tomorrows Thoughts Today (tomorrowsthoughtstoday.com)\; the ‘Unknown Fields Division’ (unknownfieldsdivision.com) at the Architectural Association in London\, and the ‘Fiction and Entertainment’ program at SciArc\nDavid Gissen\, author\, historian\, and Professor of Architecture and Visual and Critical Studies at the California College of the Arts and co-director of the Experimental History Project (http://davidgissen.org/)\nFor a full list of speakers and bios\, please visit the Ambiguous Territory symposium web page. \nAmbiguous Territory Symposium Schedule\nAll events in Taubman College Commons unless otherwise noted\nThursday October 5th\n5:00pm\nAmbiguous Territory Exhibition Reception\n(Taubman College Gallery)\n6:00pm\nKeynote Lecture: Liam Young\n(Art + Architecture Auditorium)\n \nFriday October 6th (all events occuring in The Commons)\n9:00am\nCoffee\n9:30am\nWelcome: Dean Jonathan Massey\nIntroductory Remarks: Associate Dean of Research and Creative Practice Geoffrey Thün\nSymposium Introduction: Kathy Velikov\n10:00am\nAtmospheric Mediations Panel\nIntroduction: Kathy Velikov\nSpeaker 1: Christopher Hight\nSpeaker 2: Lydia Kallipoliti\nSpeaker 3: Sean Lally\nRespondent: Meredith Miller\nRoundtable Discussion\n12:00pm\nLunch Break (lunch not provided)\n1:00pm\nBiologic Mediations Panel\nIntroduction: David Salomon\nSpeaker 1: Jennifer Peeples\nSpeaker 2: Linsdey french\nSpeaker 3: Ricardo de Ostos\nRespondent: Ellie Abrons\nRoundtable Discussion\n3:00pm\nCoffee Break\n3:30pm\nGeologic Mediations Panel\nIntroduction: Cathryn Dwyre and Chris Perry\nSpeaker 1: Alessandra Ponte\nSpeaker 2: Bradley Cantrell\nSpeaker 3: Rania Ghosn and El Hadi Jazairy\nRespondent: Mark Lindquist\nRoundtable Discussion\n5:30pm\nBreak\n6:00pm\nKeynote Lecture: David Gissen\nAmbiguous Territory Exhibition \nSeptember 27th – October 18th 2017\nUniversity of Michigan Taubman College Gallery\nDecember 2018 – January 2019\nPratt Manhattan Gallery\, New York

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Foreshadowing - Endangered and Threatened Plant Species
DESCRIPTION:A unique exhibit of botanical portraits that illuminates native and invasive plant species in a different light. Local artist and photographer Jane Kramer spent weeks exploring Michigan’s nature preserves and botanical gardens---including Matthaei---taking pictures of the shadows cast by native plant species. The shadow images were then transferred to handmade paper created from invasive plant species. For Kramer the shadows speak to the fragility of threatened plants and their struggle to survive in a changing environment that includes invasive species. The coupling of shadow and paper underscores the complex relationship between invasive and endangered plant species. Free admission. Open Wednesdays until 8 pm.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Catie Newell: Overnight
DESCRIPTION:Detroit-based architect Catie Newell’s work is focused on the tactile\, sensory qualities of the materials we use to build things: their texture\, density\, or malleability. Her investigations combine architectural research\, material studies\, and art experiments\, a strategy she began as a student that now defines her career.\n\nThe most important element in her formal vocabulary is light\, not only as a “material” in its own right\, but also as a condition. Varying in strength\, form\, and duration\, light constructs architecture as a situational experience rather than a fixed space. Newell’s fascination with light is a fascination with darkness. Through urban interventions\, installations\, and photographs\, she investigates how darkness creates alternate environments\, with unseen geographies\, untold histories\, and secret identities.\n\nNewell\, assistant professor of architecture at U-M Taubman College of Architecture and Urban Planning\, is a recent recipient of the Rome Prize in architecture. Overnight includes photographs from her Rome project as well as new photography from the series Nightly\, featuring nighttime images of Detroit streetscapes and interiors\, alongside a site-specific sculptural installation commissioned by the Museum.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Japanese Prints of Kabuki Theater from the Collection of the University of Michigan Museum of Art
DESCRIPTION:Kabuki actors were superstars in eighteenth- and nineteenth-century Japan. They were admired by passionate fans with an insatiable appetite for images of them\, fed by a publishing industry that mass-produced colorful woodblock prints of actors on stage that could be cheaply purchased as souvenirs of or substitutes for a theater experience. Japanese Prints of Kabuki Theater from the Collection of the University of Michigan Museum of Art presents a selection of these dramatic prints that connected fans to their idols\, including off- or backstage portrayals that satisfied fans’ voyeuristic curiosity about their favorite actors’ lives\, fantasy scenes of actors in unlikely groupings\, and even death portraits of especially famous actors. This introduction to the visual culture surrounding kabuki theater includes prints by major artists such as Utagawa Toyokuni (1769–1825)\, Utagawa Kunisada (1786–1865)\, Utagawa Kuniyoshi (1797–1861)\, and Toyohara Kunichika (1835–1900).\n\nLead support for this exhibition is provided by the University of Michigan Office of the Provost\, the National Endowment for the Arts\, the William T. and Dora G. Hunter Endowment\, AISIN\, the E. Rhodes and Leona B. Carpenter Foundation\, and the University of Michigan Center for Japanese Studies. Additional generous support is provided by the Japan Foundation and the University of Michigan Institute for Research on Women and Gender.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Manuel Álvarez Bravo: Mexico’s Poet of Light
DESCRIPTION:Manuel Álvarez Bravo spent nearly his entire career photographing his native Mexico. His style drew upon numerous international influences\, ranging from the Modernism of Edward Weston and Tina Modotti\, whom he met when they spent time in Mexico in the 1920s\, to the formally exquisite photojournalism of Henri Cartier-Bresson and Walker Evans\, whose work he knew in New York\, and the Surrealism of André Breton\, who visited Mexico around 1940.\n\nAlthough not strictly Surrealist\, many of Álvarez Bravo’s works manifest a similarly fantastical mood\; one of the artist’s most arresting qualities is his ability to imbue scenes of everyday life with an otherworldly\, metaphysical power. The twenty-three photographs in the exhibition\, drawn from UMMA’s collections\, show the artist’s ability to synthesize a personal—even nationalistic—style that merged the motifs of Mexican religious and indigenous works and plant forms (such as agave leaves) with a Modernist approach to image making. Throughout\, the presence of light as a wondrous metaphor and revealer of life animates even the emptiest and most silent of Álvarez Bravo’s scenes.\n\n**Special hours Sundays: 12–5pm\, CLOSED Mondays

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Mira Henry: The View Inside
DESCRIPTION:Before joining the faculty of the Southern California Institute of Architecture in Los Angeles\, Mira Henry spent several years as a project architect\, immersed in the everyday\, banal details of how buildings get built: construction drawings\, material specs\, and building codes. She became an expert in seeing the world the way an architect sees it. But as a progressive architectural thinker\, Henry’s inspiration has been to deconstruct that vision\, to “unsee” the very forms and representations that constitute an architect’s basic language.\n\nThrough speculative experiments and conceptual drawings Henry discovers in static architectural details an unsettling range of figurative expression\, including\, for example\, the way the profiles of roof eaves resemble human heads. Wallpaper\, with its ability to mask\, transform\, or animate a space\, is also a prominent element in her work. Her projects explore how these features animate our subjective experience—what she calls our “shifting fantasies”—of architectural space.\nLead support for this exhibition is provided by the Herbert W. and Susan L. Johe Endowment.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Gifts of Art presents Michigan Wonderland Gems & Jewels
DESCRIPTION:Betsy Lehndorff’s jewelry is influenced by her life in Hubbard Lake in northeastern Michigan. Using her stone cutting and silversmithing skills\, she takes on six subjects that impact her isolated world: water\, winter\, plants\, critters\, rocks and the heavens. Her work\, often representational and sometimes narrative\, challenges the idea of jewelry as a status symbol. Lehndorff was born and raised in Ann Arbor\, and lived in Colorado until 2012. She is a granddaughter of renowned architect Albert Kahn (Hill Auditorium and the “Old Main” U-M Hospital) and daughter of Dr. Edgar A. Kahn\, who headed the neurosurgery department at the U-M Hospital in the 1960s.

SUMMARY:Performance:Darlingside
DESCRIPTION:With four distinct voices clustered around a single microphone\, Darlingside effortlessly draws audiences into their lush musical world. David Fricke of Rolling Stone describes them as \"a quartet with a rich line in acoustic textures and chamber-rock dynamics.\" The band’s sound\, with classical strings\, tight vocal arrangements\, bluegrass and rock instrumentation\, and smart lyricism\, is the product of complete collaboration among the four close friends. The group has no frontman\; instead\, lead vocals are traded from moment to moment\, and each song features a new combination of instruments and textures\, pulling heavily from folk\, retro-pop\, barbershop\, and chamber music. The music Darlingside plays is serious\, cinematic\, and deeply moving. Darlingside has been featured on NPR's World Cafe and in Paste magazine\, and they were a breakout act at the 2016 Ann Arbor Folk Festival.

DESCRIPTION:Come join WolverineSoft for our annual 48-Hour Fall Game Design Competition!Spend a weekend in the Dude making a video game from scratch\, and win fabulous prizes! Come alone\, or with a team of up to four. Registration begins on Friday at 5:00 PM. We will also offer free pizza for all participants on Saturday at 6:00 PM.What is a Game Jam?A Game Jam (akin to a musical jam session) is a condensed length of time for developers to get together and create a video game. Game Jams provide a fun\, collaborative environment with many teams participating\, as well as a way for developers to test their own skills and see what they can accomplish in a short amount of time. At the end of the Jam\, teams play each others' creations and vote on their favorite games.There are prizes for the best teams\, but the real experience of a Game Jam is the knowledge gained during your development. The difference is immense between someone who has never completed a game\, and someone who has completed even a small one. Much of the development cycle happens AFTER the game is finished (polishing\, deployment\, marketing\, etc.) and much of the knowledge of game development comes from working on a project with a team\, and seeing it to completion.If any of this sounds interesting\, please come join us this weekend! We will be hosting tutorials in the first few hours of the Jam\, so no prior experience is necessary. Whether you are a programmer\, artist\, musician\, designer\, or just someone who wants to learn how to make games\, we look forward to seeing you there!

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Gifts of Art presents Avian Vessels: Mixed Media Sculpture
DESCRIPTION:Cincinnati based sculptor Karen Heyl has been professionally sculpting stone since 1984. She is best known for bas-relief limestone sculptures\, but in 2011 she developed an interest in sculpting clay using a similar relief carving technique. Out of this came an artistic exploration and refinement of birds using ceramic vessels as the starting point. Whimsical additions such as tails and beaks give each bird an individual personality. Each bird is perched on an individually carved limestone base to enhance the unique qualities that each bird displays. Heyl’s affinity for nature extends from her art to her love of gardening and the occasional golf game.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Gifts of Art presents Works by Belle Kogan: First Female Industrial Designer
DESCRIPTION:This exhibition presents industrially-produced art pottery pieces designed by Belle Kogan (1902–2000)\, for Red Wing Potteries in Red Wing\, Minnesota.

Her design aesthetic was heavily influenced by the geometric and streamlined shapes of Art Deco. Belle Kogan Associates\, her New York–based studio\, was the first American female-led design firm. Her contracts with Red Wing Potteries produced over 400 different art pottery shapes from the late 1930s to the early 1960s\, as well as several dinnerware and kitchenware lines. Belle Kogan and her firm designed products not only in ceramics but also clocks and small appliances\, glassware\, and pieces in silver\, plastics\, wrought iron and wood.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Documenting Detroit - A Monts Hall Photo Exhibition
DESCRIPTION:Documenting Detroit is a collection of photographs taken by students from the College for Creative Studies during the 1970s and 1980s. Under the guidance of Detroit photographer and photography instructor Bill Rauhauser\, students turned the urban landscape into works of art.\n\nThis exhibition offers a select sample of a vast collection that includes nearly 1\,250 photographs of Detroit\, from churches to construction sites\, grocery stores to warehouses\, hospitals to schools\, and many others. The collection also provides a snapshot of visual symbols of Detroit during 20th century\, including the Michigan Central Train Station\, the J. L. Hudson’s Department Store on Woodward Avenue\, construction of the Renaissance Center and Joe Louis Arena\, and the abandonment of Poletown and the Warehouse District. Photographs also document everyday Detroit\, such as favorite restaurants (Jacoby’s\, Astoria Bakery\, Pegasus Taverna\, Circa 1890 Saloon\, and Sweetwater Tavern)\, families on Belle Isle\, and vendors at Eastern Market.\n\nYou can search the entire Documenting Detroit collection and develop your own primary source sets by visiting: http://detroiths.pastperfect-online.comand search for “Documenting Detroit.” The current exhibit is available during regular Detroit Center hours\, now through November 30\, 2016.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Symposium: Ambiguous Territory: Architecture\, Landscape\, and the Postnatural
DESCRIPTION:Free and open to the public\nAmbiguous Territory: Architecture\, Landscape\, and the Postnatural is a symposium and concurrent exhibition that situates contemporary discourses and practices of architecture and landscape within the context of the Postnatural\; the era of climate change\, the Anthropocene\, and altered ecologies. The symposium asks: In a time when humans have been fundamentally displaced from their presumed place of privilege\, philosophically as well as experientially\, should the disciplines of architecture and landscape architecture consider displacing themselves as well\, in order to establish new affiliations and avail new ways to approach contemporary questions of design in relation to the environment?\nBy bringing designers and scholars from these fields together the symposium and exhibition will highlight projects and ideas that are engaged with these issues from a variety of perspectives\, ranging from scale and experience to questions of matter. Participants will present research and work that use tactics of mediation to understand\, imagine\, interrupt\, and invent artifacts that exist at the large spatial and slow temporal scale of the Anthropocene.\nAmbiguous Territory will present design ideas and proposals from architects\, artists\, and landscape architects whose work challenges their disciplinary boundaries and long-held anthropocentric orientation and redefines the relationship between built and natural environments in an era of ecological anxiety.\nChairs:       \nKathy Velikov\, Associate Professor at the University of Michigan and principal of RVTR\nCathryn Dwyre\, Visiting Associate Professor at Pratt institute School of Architecture and partner at pneumastudio\nChris Perry\, Associate Professor at Rensselaer Architecture and partner at pneumastudio\nDavid Salomon\, Assistant Professor of Art History at Ithaca College.\nKeynotes:\nLiam Young\, urbanist\, designer and futurist\; founder of the futures think tank Tomorrows Thoughts Today (tomorrowsthoughtstoday.com)\; the ‘Unknown Fields Division’ (unknownfieldsdivision.com) at the Architectural Association in London\, and the ‘Fiction and Entertainment’ program at SciArc\nDavid Gissen\, author\, historian\, and Professor of Architecture and Visual and Critical Studies at the California College of the Arts and co-director of the Experimental History Project (http://davidgissen.org/)\nFor a full list of speakers and bios\, please visit the Ambiguous Territory symposium web page. \nAmbiguous Territory Symposium Schedule\nAll events in Taubman College Commons unless otherwise noted\nThursday October 5th\n5:00pm\nAmbiguous Territory Exhibition Reception\n(Taubman College Gallery)\n6:00pm\nKeynote Lecture: Liam Young\n(Art + Architecture Auditorium)\n \nFriday October 6th (all events occuring in The Commons)\n9:00am\nCoffee\n9:30am\nWelcome: Dean Jonathan Massey\nIntroductory Remarks: Associate Dean of Research and Creative Practice Geoffrey Thün\nSymposium Introduction: Kathy Velikov\n10:00am\nAtmospheric Mediations Panel\nIntroduction: Kathy Velikov\nSpeaker 1: Christopher Hight\nSpeaker 2: Lydia Kallipoliti\nSpeaker 3: Sean Lally\nRespondent: Meredith Miller\nRoundtable Discussion\n12:00pm\nLunch Break (lunch not provided)\n1:00pm\nBiologic Mediations Panel\nIntroduction: David Salomon\nSpeaker 1: Jennifer Peeples\nSpeaker 2: Linsdey french\nSpeaker 3: Ricardo de Ostos\nRespondent: Ellie Abrons\nRoundtable Discussion\n3:00pm\nCoffee Break\n3:30pm\nGeologic Mediations Panel\nIntroduction: Cathryn Dwyre and Chris Perry\nSpeaker 1: Alessandra Ponte\nSpeaker 2: Bradley Cantrell\nSpeaker 3: Rania Ghosn and El Hadi Jazairy\nRespondent: Mark Lindquist\nRoundtable Discussion\n5:30pm\nBreak\n6:00pm\nKeynote Lecture: David Gissen\nAmbiguous Territory Exhibition \nSeptember 27th – October 18th 2017\nUniversity of Michigan Taubman College Gallery\nDecember 2018 – January 2019\nPratt Manhattan Gallery\, New York

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Foreshadowing - Endangered and Threatened Plant Species
DESCRIPTION:A unique exhibit of botanical portraits that illuminates native and invasive plant species in a different light. Local artist and photographer Jane Kramer spent weeks exploring Michigan’s nature preserves and botanical gardens---including Matthaei---taking pictures of the shadows cast by native plant species. The shadow images were then transferred to handmade paper created from invasive plant species. For Kramer the shadows speak to the fragility of threatened plants and their struggle to survive in a changing environment that includes invasive species. The coupling of shadow and paper underscores the complex relationship between invasive and endangered plant species. Free admission. Open Wednesdays until 8 pm.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Catie Newell: Overnight
DESCRIPTION:Detroit-based architect Catie Newell’s work is focused on the tactile\, sensory qualities of the materials we use to build things: their texture\, density\, or malleability. Her investigations combine architectural research\, material studies\, and art experiments\, a strategy she began as a student that now defines her career.\n\nThe most important element in her formal vocabulary is light\, not only as a “material” in its own right\, but also as a condition. Varying in strength\, form\, and duration\, light constructs architecture as a situational experience rather than a fixed space. Newell’s fascination with light is a fascination with darkness. Through urban interventions\, installations\, and photographs\, she investigates how darkness creates alternate environments\, with unseen geographies\, untold histories\, and secret identities.\n\nNewell\, assistant professor of architecture at U-M Taubman College of Architecture and Urban Planning\, is a recent recipient of the Rome Prize in architecture. Overnight includes photographs from her Rome project as well as new photography from the series Nightly\, featuring nighttime images of Detroit streetscapes and interiors\, alongside a site-specific sculptural installation commissioned by the Museum.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Japanese Prints of Kabuki Theater from the Collection of the University of Michigan Museum of Art
DESCRIPTION:Kabuki actors were superstars in eighteenth- and nineteenth-century Japan. They were admired by passionate fans with an insatiable appetite for images of them\, fed by a publishing industry that mass-produced colorful woodblock prints of actors on stage that could be cheaply purchased as souvenirs of or substitutes for a theater experience. Japanese Prints of Kabuki Theater from the Collection of the University of Michigan Museum of Art presents a selection of these dramatic prints that connected fans to their idols\, including off- or backstage portrayals that satisfied fans’ voyeuristic curiosity about their favorite actors’ lives\, fantasy scenes of actors in unlikely groupings\, and even death portraits of especially famous actors. This introduction to the visual culture surrounding kabuki theater includes prints by major artists such as Utagawa Toyokuni (1769–1825)\, Utagawa Kunisada (1786–1865)\, Utagawa Kuniyoshi (1797–1861)\, and Toyohara Kunichika (1835–1900).\n\nLead support for this exhibition is provided by the University of Michigan Office of the Provost\, the National Endowment for the Arts\, the William T. and Dora G. Hunter Endowment\, AISIN\, the E. Rhodes and Leona B. Carpenter Foundation\, and the University of Michigan Center for Japanese Studies. Additional generous support is provided by the Japan Foundation and the University of Michigan Institute for Research on Women and Gender.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Manuel Álvarez Bravo: Mexico’s Poet of Light
DESCRIPTION:Manuel Álvarez Bravo spent nearly his entire career photographing his native Mexico. His style drew upon numerous international influences\, ranging from the Modernism of Edward Weston and Tina Modotti\, whom he met when they spent time in Mexico in the 1920s\, to the formally exquisite photojournalism of Henri Cartier-Bresson and Walker Evans\, whose work he knew in New York\, and the Surrealism of André Breton\, who visited Mexico around 1940.\n\nAlthough not strictly Surrealist\, many of Álvarez Bravo’s works manifest a similarly fantastical mood\; one of the artist’s most arresting qualities is his ability to imbue scenes of everyday life with an otherworldly\, metaphysical power. The twenty-three photographs in the exhibition\, drawn from UMMA’s collections\, show the artist’s ability to synthesize a personal—even nationalistic—style that merged the motifs of Mexican religious and indigenous works and plant forms (such as agave leaves) with a Modernist approach to image making. Throughout\, the presence of light as a wondrous metaphor and revealer of life animates even the emptiest and most silent of Álvarez Bravo’s scenes.\n\n**Special hours Sundays: 12–5pm\, CLOSED Mondays

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Ceci n'est pas une %>% Explore your data
DESCRIPTION:R is an extremely powerful tool for data modeling\, visualization\, and general programming.  In many practical applications of statistics\, the vast majority of time is spent preparing the data for eventual analysis. However\, this also where many practitioners who use R often have relatively little training.  In recent years\, a variety of packages have become available to make data wrangling\, summarizing\, generation and other common operations more straightforward\, and easier to read for future use (e.g. via piping and clearer syntax).  In addition\, some newer visualization packages work these approaches\, allowing one to go quite seamlessly from raw data to interactive graphics.  This workshop will introduce participants to a handful of tools that can make their data exploration and analytical flow more streamlined and reproducible.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Gifts of Art presents Michigan Wonderland Gems & Jewels
DESCRIPTION:Betsy Lehndorff’s jewelry is influenced by her life in Hubbard Lake in northeastern Michigan. Using her stone cutting and silversmithing skills\, she takes on six subjects that impact her isolated world: water\, winter\, plants\, critters\, rocks and the heavens. Her work\, often representational and sometimes narrative\, challenges the idea of jewelry as a status symbol. Lehndorff was born and raised in Ann Arbor\, and lived in Colorado until 2012. She is a granddaughter of renowned architect Albert Kahn (Hill Auditorium and the “Old Main” U-M Hospital) and daughter of Dr. Edgar A. Kahn\, who headed the neurosurgery department at the U-M Hospital in the 1960s.

SUMMARY:Other:Brit Bennett with Chris McCormick
DESCRIPTION:Literati is thrilled to welcome Brit Bennett back to Ann Arbor in support of her debut novel\, The Mothers\, a staff pick and our Literati Cultura selection for October. Brit will be joined in conversation by Chris McCormick\, the author of Desert Boys.\n\nSet within a contemporary black community in Southern California\, Brit Bennett’s mesmerizing first novel is an emotionally perceptive story about community\, love\, and ambition. It begins with a secret. “All good secrets have a taste before you tell them\, and if we’d taken a moment to swish this one around our mouths\, we might have noticed the sourness of an unripe secret\, plucked too soon\, stolen and passed around before its season.”\n\nIt is the last season of high school life for Nadia Turner\, a rebellious\, grief-stricken\, seventeen-year-old beauty. Mourning her own mother’s recent suicide\, she takes up with the local pastor’s son. Luke Sheppard is twenty-one\, a former football star whose injury has reduced him to waiting tables at a diner. They are young\; it’s not serious. But the pregnancy that results from this teen romance—and the subsequent cover-up—will have an impact that goes far beyond their youth. As Nadia hides her secret from everyone\, including Aubrey\, her God-fearing best friend\, the years move quickly. Soon\, Nadia\, Luke\, and Aubrey are full-fledged adults and still living in debt to the choices they made that one seaside summer\, caught in a love triangle they must carefully maneuver\, and dogged by the constant\, nagging question: What if they had chosen differently? The possibilities of the road not taken are a relentless haunt.\n\nIn entrancing\, lyrical prose\, The Mothers asks whether a “what if” can be more powerful than an experience itself. If\, as time passes\, we must always live in servitude to the decisions of our younger selves\, to the communities that have parented us\, and to the decisions we make that shape our lives forever.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Gifts of Art presents Avian Vessels: Mixed Media Sculpture
DESCRIPTION:Cincinnati based sculptor Karen Heyl has been professionally sculpting stone since 1984. She is best known for bas-relief limestone sculptures\, but in 2011 she developed an interest in sculpting clay using a similar relief carving technique. Out of this came an artistic exploration and refinement of birds using ceramic vessels as the starting point. Whimsical additions such as tails and beaks give each bird an individual personality. Each bird is perched on an individually carved limestone base to enhance the unique qualities that each bird displays. Heyl’s affinity for nature extends from her art to her love of gardening and the occasional golf game.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Symposium: Ambiguous Territory: Architecture\, Landscape\, and the Postnatural
DESCRIPTION:Free and open to the public\nAmbiguous Territory: Architecture\, Landscape\, and the Postnatural is a symposium and concurrent exhibition that situates contemporary discourses and practices of architecture and landscape within the context of the Postnatural\; the era of climate change\, the Anthropocene\, and altered ecologies. The symposium asks: In a time when humans have been fundamentally displaced from their presumed place of privilege\, philosophically as well as experientially\, should the disciplines of architecture and landscape architecture consider displacing themselves as well\, in order to establish new affiliations and avail new ways to approach contemporary questions of design in relation to the environment?\nBy bringing designers and scholars from these fields together the symposium and exhibition will highlight projects and ideas that are engaged with these issues from a variety of perspectives\, ranging from scale and experience to questions of matter. Participants will present research and work that use tactics of mediation to understand\, imagine\, interrupt\, and invent artifacts that exist at the large spatial and slow temporal scale of the Anthropocene.\nAmbiguous Territory will present design ideas and proposals from architects\, artists\, and landscape architects whose work challenges their disciplinary boundaries and long-held anthropocentric orientation and redefines the relationship between built and natural environments in an era of ecological anxiety.\nChairs:       \nKathy Velikov\, Associate Professor at the University of Michigan and principal of RVTR\nCathryn Dwyre\, Visiting Associate Professor at Pratt institute School of Architecture and partner at pneumastudio\nChris Perry\, Associate Professor at Rensselaer Architecture and partner at pneumastudio\nDavid Salomon\, Assistant Professor of Art History at Ithaca College.\nKeynotes:\nLiam Young\, urbanist\, designer and futurist\; founder of the futures think tank Tomorrows Thoughts Today (tomorrowsthoughtstoday.com)\; the ‘Unknown Fields Division’ (unknownfieldsdivision.com) at the Architectural Association in London\, and the ‘Fiction and Entertainment’ program at SciArc\nDavid Gissen\, author\, historian\, and Professor of Architecture and Visual and Critical Studies at the California College of the Arts and co-director of the Experimental History Project (http://davidgissen.org/)\nFor a full list of speakers and bios\, please visit the Ambiguous Territory symposium web page. \nAmbiguous Territory Symposium Schedule\nAll events in Taubman College Commons unless otherwise noted\nThursday October 5th\n5:00pm\nAmbiguous Territory Exhibition Reception\n(Taubman College Gallery)\n6:00pm\nKeynote Lecture: Liam Young\n(Art + Architecture Auditorium)\n \nFriday October 6th (all events occuring in The Commons)\n9:00am\nCoffee\n9:30am\nWelcome: Dean Jonathan Massey\nIntroductory Remarks: Associate Dean of Research and Creative Practice Geoffrey Thün\nSymposium Introduction: Kathy Velikov\n10:00am\nAtmospheric Mediations Panel\nIntroduction: Kathy Velikov\nSpeaker 1: Christopher Hight\nSpeaker 2: Lydia Kallipoliti\nSpeaker 3: Sean Lally\nRespondent: Meredith Miller\nRoundtable Discussion\n12:00pm\nLunch Break (lunch not provided)\n1:00pm\nBiologic Mediations Panel\nIntroduction: David Salomon\nSpeaker 1: Jennifer Peeples\nSpeaker 2: Linsdey french\nSpeaker 3: Ricardo de Ostos\nRespondent: Ellie Abrons\nRoundtable Discussion\n3:00pm\nCoffee Break\n3:30pm\nGeologic Mediations Panel\nIntroduction: Cathryn Dwyre and Chris Perry\nSpeaker 1: Alessandra Ponte\nSpeaker 2: Bradley Cantrell\nSpeaker 3: Rania Ghosn and El Hadi Jazairy\nRespondent: Mark Lindquist\nRoundtable Discussion\n5:30pm\nBreak\n6:00pm\nKeynote Lecture: David Gissen\nAmbiguous Territory Exhibition \nSeptember 27th – October 18th 2017\nUniversity of Michigan Taubman College Gallery\nDecember 2018 – January 2019\nPratt Manhattan Gallery\, New York

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Foreshadowing - Endangered and Threatened Plant Species
DESCRIPTION:A unique exhibit of botanical portraits that illuminates native and invasive plant species in a different light. Local artist and photographer Jane Kramer spent weeks exploring Michigan’s nature preserves and botanical gardens---including Matthaei---taking pictures of the shadows cast by native plant species. The shadow images were then transferred to handmade paper created from invasive plant species. For Kramer the shadows speak to the fragility of threatened plants and their struggle to survive in a changing environment that includes invasive species. The coupling of shadow and paper underscores the complex relationship between invasive and endangered plant species. Free admission. Open Wednesdays until 8 pm.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Catie Newell: Overnight
DESCRIPTION:Detroit-based architect Catie Newell’s work is focused on the tactile\, sensory qualities of the materials we use to build things: their texture\, density\, or malleability. Her investigations combine architectural research\, material studies\, and art experiments\, a strategy she began as a student that now defines her career.\n\nThe most important element in her formal vocabulary is light\, not only as a “material” in its own right\, but also as a condition. Varying in strength\, form\, and duration\, light constructs architecture as a situational experience rather than a fixed space. Newell’s fascination with light is a fascination with darkness. Through urban interventions\, installations\, and photographs\, she investigates how darkness creates alternate environments\, with unseen geographies\, untold histories\, and secret identities.\n\nNewell\, assistant professor of architecture at U-M Taubman College of Architecture and Urban Planning\, is a recent recipient of the Rome Prize in architecture. Overnight includes photographs from her Rome project as well as new photography from the series Nightly\, featuring nighttime images of Detroit streetscapes and interiors\, alongside a site-specific sculptural installation commissioned by the Museum.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Japanese Prints of Kabuki Theater from the Collection of the University of Michigan Museum of Art
DESCRIPTION:Kabuki actors were superstars in eighteenth- and nineteenth-century Japan. They were admired by passionate fans with an insatiable appetite for images of them\, fed by a publishing industry that mass-produced colorful woodblock prints of actors on stage that could be cheaply purchased as souvenirs of or substitutes for a theater experience. Japanese Prints of Kabuki Theater from the Collection of the University of Michigan Museum of Art presents a selection of these dramatic prints that connected fans to their idols\, including off- or backstage portrayals that satisfied fans’ voyeuristic curiosity about their favorite actors’ lives\, fantasy scenes of actors in unlikely groupings\, and even death portraits of especially famous actors. This introduction to the visual culture surrounding kabuki theater includes prints by major artists such as Utagawa Toyokuni (1769–1825)\, Utagawa Kunisada (1786–1865)\, Utagawa Kuniyoshi (1797–1861)\, and Toyohara Kunichika (1835–1900).\n\nLead support for this exhibition is provided by the University of Michigan Office of the Provost\, the National Endowment for the Arts\, the William T. and Dora G. Hunter Endowment\, AISIN\, the E. Rhodes and Leona B. Carpenter Foundation\, and the University of Michigan Center for Japanese Studies. Additional generous support is provided by the Japan Foundation and the University of Michigan Institute for Research on Women and Gender.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Manuel Álvarez Bravo: Mexico’s Poet of Light
DESCRIPTION:Manuel Álvarez Bravo spent nearly his entire career photographing his native Mexico. His style drew upon numerous international influences\, ranging from the Modernism of Edward Weston and Tina Modotti\, whom he met when they spent time in Mexico in the 1920s\, to the formally exquisite photojournalism of Henri Cartier-Bresson and Walker Evans\, whose work he knew in New York\, and the Surrealism of André Breton\, who visited Mexico around 1940.\n\nAlthough not strictly Surrealist\, many of Álvarez Bravo’s works manifest a similarly fantastical mood\; one of the artist’s most arresting qualities is his ability to imbue scenes of everyday life with an otherworldly\, metaphysical power. The twenty-three photographs in the exhibition\, drawn from UMMA’s collections\, show the artist’s ability to synthesize a personal—even nationalistic—style that merged the motifs of Mexican religious and indigenous works and plant forms (such as agave leaves) with a Modernist approach to image making. Throughout\, the presence of light as a wondrous metaphor and revealer of life animates even the emptiest and most silent of Álvarez Bravo’s scenes.\n\n**Special hours Sundays: 12–5pm\, CLOSED Mondays

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Health\, History\, Demography & Development (H2D2)
DESCRIPTION:Abstract:\nPatients often rely on personal interactions with health care providers to form and update their beliefs about quality. In this study\, we examine the role played by initial patient-provider interactions in determining the demand for elective surgery\, a setting in which patients and providers interact in two well-defined phases: initial diagnosis and\, if appropriate\, surgery. We implemented an experiment in a low-cost cataract surgery clinic in Mexico City\, in which we randomized the price of a “premium” diagnostic consultation meant to increase perceptions of clinic quality by improving the consumer experience. Demand for the premium consultation is downward sloping and highly nonlinear. Using the price randomization to instrument for premium consultation take-up\, we find that improving the quality of the initial patient-provider interaction dramatically increases the probability of surgery take-up (which is two orders of magnitude more expensive than the diagnostic session) for those with positive diagnoses. The large price elasticity of demand for the premium consultation suggests that investing in improving the quality of initial interactions can substantially increase the subsequent demand for health care.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Gifts of Art presents Michigan Wonderland Gems & Jewels
DESCRIPTION:Betsy Lehndorff’s jewelry is influenced by her life in Hubbard Lake in northeastern Michigan. Using her stone cutting and silversmithing skills\, she takes on six subjects that impact her isolated world: water\, winter\, plants\, critters\, rocks and the heavens. Her work\, often representational and sometimes narrative\, challenges the idea of jewelry as a status symbol. Lehndorff was born and raised in Ann Arbor\, and lived in Colorado until 2012. She is a granddaughter of renowned architect Albert Kahn (Hill Auditorium and the “Old Main” U-M Hospital) and daughter of Dr. Edgar A. Kahn\, who headed the neurosurgery department at the U-M Hospital in the 1960s.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:CM-AMO Seminar | Active Nanophotonics: From Coherent Control of Quantum Emitters to Plasmonic Nanolasers
DESCRIPTION:Light-matter interaction at nanometer scale is emerging as one of the most exciting fields in nanoscience. In combination with the advanced materials synthesis technique to tailor novel low-dimensional electronic systems\, new doors are open toward design and realization of nanophotonic devices with novel functionalities. Here I will present two areas that have been pursued in my research group. The first concerns optical coherent control of semiconductor quantum dots as quantum light sources for quantum information applications[1-4]. In particular\, I will discuss resonant excitation of quantum emitters in a cavity which enables observation of key signatures of resonant fluorescence such as Mollow triplets and Rabi oscillations in second order photon correlations. The second topic deals with recent exciting development in metal based plasmonic platform which enables the realization of plasmonic nanolasers that break the diffraction limit[5-7]. I will discuss the first CW operation of plasmonic nanolaser with ultra-low thresholds and show that the underlying mechanism is spasing. Future perspectives of an all plasmonic photonic circuits will also be discussed. \n\n1.	Htoon\, H.\, et al.\, Interplay of Rabi oscillations and quantum interference in semiconductor quantum dots.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Gifts of Art presents Avian Vessels: Mixed Media Sculpture
DESCRIPTION:Cincinnati based sculptor Karen Heyl has been professionally sculpting stone since 1984. She is best known for bas-relief limestone sculptures\, but in 2011 she developed an interest in sculpting clay using a similar relief carving technique. Out of this came an artistic exploration and refinement of birds using ceramic vessels as the starting point. Whimsical additions such as tails and beaks give each bird an individual personality. Each bird is perched on an individually carved limestone base to enhance the unique qualities that each bird displays. Heyl’s affinity for nature extends from her art to her love of gardening and the occasional golf game.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Sinking City\, Between Civilization and the Deep Blue Sea
DESCRIPTION:Jakarta\, Indonesia has a serious problem with flooding. The city is literally sinking while also experiencing climate change related sea-level rise. Add to that the yearly heavy rainfall the city sees from the Southeast Asian monsoon and a population that has swelled beyond ten million due to rapid urbanization\, and it’s easy to see why Jakarta’s infrastructure is experiencing significant strain. Jakarta isn’t an isolated example of this perfect storm. It represents the future difficulty that coastal cities all over the world are likely to face.\n\nUnderstanding that lessons learned in Jakarta can have a global impact\, University of Michigan alumus Frank Sedlar set out to help with flood mitigation in Jakarta. Frank earned his master of science degree from Michigan Engineering and also studied the Indonesian language while at the university. Photojournalist and filmmaker Marcin Szczepanski and writer Ben Logan from Michigan Engineering chronicled Frank’s experience while in Jakarta working on modern solutions to Jakarta’s growing problem.\n\nPlease join us for an opening reception on Friday\, October 21 at 5 PM at the International Institute Gallery. Refreshments will be served.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:The Florence Flood\, November 1966
DESCRIPTION:This exhibit focuses on the destruction of Florence during the flood on November 4\, 1966. Among the collections severely impacted by the muddy waters were those in the Biblioteca Nazionale Centrale di Firenze. Book conservators from the United States and Western Europe were called in to help with the recovery efforts. The exhibit features a British team\, headed by Peter Waters\, which created a washing-drying-mending-rebinding system to deal with tens of thousands of books damaged by the disaster.\n\nThe two most important outcomes of the tragedy are the professional training of library conservators and the establishment of disaster preparedness and response programs.\n\nLearn more and register for the symposium\, The Flood in Florence\, 1966: A Fifty-Year Retrospective\, happening November 3-4\, 2016. https://www.lib.umich.edu/flood-florence-1966-fifty-year-retrospective

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Causal Inference in Education Research Seminar (CIERS)
DESCRIPTION:Abstract:\nConcerns over growing student loan debt\, delinquency\, and defaults have stimulated proposals to develop and expand income-driven repayment (IDR) plans that link loan payments to borrowers’ earnings. In this project\, we investigate the factors that affect students’ loan repayment choices. We test how the framing of the two key features that distinguish income-driven schemes – protection from unaffordable loan payments in periods of low earnings versus potentially higher costs over the life of the loan – affects empirical measures of adverse selection. In a survey of University of Maryland undergraduates\, we elicit students’ expectations of future labor market outcomes and preferences for income-driven repayment by presenting students with scenarios in which both the percentage of income that payments represent and the framing of the alternative plan are randomly assigned. Consistent with adverse selection\, students who expect to have better labor market outcomes are less likely to prefer IDR. We also find a strong relationship between the framing of IDR and students preferences\, with students significantly more likely to report preferring IDR when the insurance aspect of the plan is emphasized and less likely to prefer IDR when the length of repayment and total interest paid are highlighted.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Documenting Detroit - A Monts Hall Photo Exhibition
DESCRIPTION:Documenting Detroit is a collection of photographs taken by students from the College for Creative Studies during the 1970s and 1980s.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Symposium: Ambiguous Territory: Architecture\, Landscape\, and the Postnatural
DESCRIPTION:Free and open to the public\nAmbiguous Territory: Architecture\, Landscape\, and the Postnatural is a symposium and concurrent exhibition that situates contemporary discourses and practices of architecture and landscape within the context of the Postnatural\; the era of climate change\, the Anthropocene\, and altered ecologies. The symposium asks: In a time when humans have been fundamentally displaced from their presumed place of privilege\, philosophically as well as experientially\, should the disciplines of architecture and landscape architecture consider displacing themselves as well\, in order to establish new affiliations and avail new ways to approach contemporary questions of design in relation to the environment?\nBy bringing designers and scholars from these fields together the symposium and exhibition will highlight projects and ideas that are engaged with these issues from a variety of perspectives\, ranging from scale and experience to questions of matter. Participants will present research and work that use tactics of mediation to understand\, imagine\, interrupt\, and invent artifacts that exist at the large spatial and slow temporal scale of the Anthropocene.\nAmbiguous Territory will present design ideas and proposals from architects\, artists\, and landscape architects whose work challenges their disciplinary boundaries and long-held anthropocentric orientation and redefines the relationship between built and natural environments in an era of ecological anxiety.\nChairs:       \nKathy Velikov\, Associate Professor at the University of Michigan and principal of RVTR\nCathryn Dwyre\, Visiting Associate Professor at Pratt institute School of Architecture and partner at pneumastudio\nChris Perry\, Associate Professor at Rensselaer Architecture and partner at pneumastudio\nDavid Salomon\, Assistant Professor of Art History at Ithaca College.\nKeynotes:\nLiam Young\, urbanist\, designer and futurist\; founder of the futures think tank Tomorrows Thoughts Today (tomorrowsthoughtstoday.com)\; the ‘Unknown Fields Division’ (unknownfieldsdivision.com) at the Architectural Association in London\, and the ‘Fiction and Entertainment’ program at SciArc\nDavid Gissen\, author\, historian\, and Professor of Architecture and Visual and Critical Studies at the California College of the Arts and co-director of the Experimental History Project (http://davidgissen.org/)\nFor a full list of speakers and bios\, please visit the Ambiguous Territory symposium web page. \nAmbiguous Territory Symposium Schedule\nAll events in Taubman College Commons unless otherwise noted\nThursday October 5th\n5:00pm\nAmbiguous Territory Exhibition Reception\n(Taubman College Gallery)\n6:00pm\nKeynote Lecture: Liam Young\n(Art + Architecture Auditorium)\n \nFriday October 6th (all events occuring in The Commons)\n9:00am\nCoffee\n9:30am\nWelcome: Dean Jonathan Massey\nIntroductory Remarks: Associate Dean of Research and Creative Practice Geoffrey Thün\nSymposium Introduction: Kathy Velikov\n10:00am\nAtmospheric Mediations Panel\nIntroduction: Kathy Velikov\nSpeaker 1: Christopher Hight\nSpeaker 2: Lydia Kallipoliti\nSpeaker 3: Sean Lally\nRespondent: Meredith Miller\nRoundtable Discussion\n12:00pm\nLunch Break (lunch not provided)\n1:00pm\nBiologic Mediations Panel\nIntroduction: David Salomon\nSpeaker 1: Jennifer Peeples\nSpeaker 2: Linsdey french\nSpeaker 3: Ricardo de Ostos\nRespondent: Ellie Abrons\nRoundtable Discussion\n3:00pm\nCoffee Break\n3:30pm\nGeologic Mediations Panel\nIntroduction: Cathryn Dwyre and Chris Perry\nSpeaker 1: Alessandra Ponte\nSpeaker 2: Bradley Cantrell\nSpeaker 3: Rania Ghosn and El Hadi Jazairy\nRespondent: Mark Lindquist\nRoundtable Discussion\n5:30pm\nBreak\n6:00pm\nKeynote Lecture: David Gissen\nAmbiguous Territory Exhibition \nSeptember 27th – October 18th 2017\nUniversity of Michigan Taubman College Gallery\nDecember 2018 – January 2019\nPratt Manhattan Gallery\, New York

SUMMARY:Conference / Symposium:Urban Entrepreneurship Symposium
DESCRIPTION:The Urban Entrepreneurship Symposium convenes entrepreneurs and thought leaders in business\, academia\, community organizations\, and government to facilitate business innovation that improves the quality of life in urban communities. The first Urban Entrepreneurship Symposium (UES2014) was held at the Gerald R. Ford Presidential Library in Ann Arbor\, Michigan. The 2015 edition (UES2015) took place at the College for Creative Studies in Detroit\, Michigan. In 2016\, the location and focus of the symposium will be the city of Flint\, Michigan. Why Flint? Because Flint’s ongoing water crisis is but a symptom of the ills threatening many urban communities. UES2016 will focus the best minds in the city\, region\, and country on applying entrepreneurial innovation to revitalize Flint and similar communities.\n\nThis year’s symposium will focus on entrepreneurial ACTION to address issues such as Flint’s water crisis\, urban unemployment\, and more.\n\nUES 2016 Mission\n• Focus the entrepreneur community on solving urban problems via for-profit businesses.\n• Forge productive connections between entrepreneurs\, investors\, students\, faculty\, and urbancommunities.\n• Identify important urban problems that can benefit from for-profit business innovation.\n• Identify new business models that can result in repeatable\, scalable businesses that address key urban problems.\n• Identify and recognize existing businesses that are applying innovative business models to solve important urban problems.\n• Share best practices in community engagement\, problem identification\, human-centered design\, business model creation and validation\, finance and support systems\, and other key areas.\n\nSave the date!\n\nMore information will be provided in the coming weeks.\n\nFor more information about the Urban Entrepreneurship Initiative and the Urban EntrepreneurshipSymposium\, see urbanei.org.\n\nSee UES2015 Detroit video trailer here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dO0yiwriFM0&feature=youtu.be\n\nTo register and buy tickets\, visit: https://www.eventbrite.com/e/urban-entrepreneurship-symposium-2016-urban-revival-tickets-27123894298

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Foreshadowing - Endangered and Threatened Plant Species
DESCRIPTION:A unique exhibit of botanical portraits that illuminates native and invasive plant species in a different light. Local artist and photographer Jane Kramer spent weeks exploring Michigan’s nature preserves and botanical gardens---including Matthaei---taking pictures of the shadows cast by native plant species. The shadow images were then transferred to handmade paper created from invasive plant species. For Kramer the shadows speak to the fragility of threatened plants and their struggle to survive in a changing environment that includes invasive species. The coupling of shadow and paper underscores the complex relationship between invasive and endangered plant species. Free admission. Open Wednesdays until 8 pm.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Catie Newell: Overnight
DESCRIPTION:Detroit-based architect Catie Newell’s work is focused on the tactile\, sensory qualities of the materials we use to build things: their texture\, density\, or malleability. Her investigations combine architectural research\, material studies\, and art experiments\, a strategy she began as a student that now defines her career.\n\nThe most important element in her formal vocabulary is light\, not only as a “material” in its own right\, but also as a condition. Varying in strength\, form\, and duration\, light constructs architecture as a situational experience rather than a fixed space. Newell’s fascination with light is a fascination with darkness. Through urban interventions\, installations\, and photographs\, she investigates how darkness creates alternate environments\, with unseen geographies\, untold histories\, and secret identities.\n\nNewell\, assistant professor of architecture at U-M Taubman College of Architecture and Urban Planning\, is a recent recipient of the Rome Prize in architecture. Overnight includes photographs from her Rome project as well as new photography from the series Nightly\, featuring nighttime images of Detroit streetscapes and interiors\, alongside a site-specific sculptural installation commissioned by the Museum.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Japanese Prints of Kabuki Theater from the Collection of the University of Michigan Museum of Art
DESCRIPTION:Kabuki actors were superstars in eighteenth- and nineteenth-century Japan. They were admired by passionate fans with an insatiable appetite for images of them\, fed by a publishing industry that mass-produced colorful woodblock prints of actors on stage that could be cheaply purchased as souvenirs of or substitutes for a theater experience. Japanese Prints of Kabuki Theater from the Collection of the University of Michigan Museum of Art presents a selection of these dramatic prints that connected fans to their idols\, including off- or backstage portrayals that satisfied fans’ voyeuristic curiosity about their favorite actors’ lives\, fantasy scenes of actors in unlikely groupings\, and even death portraits of especially famous actors. This introduction to the visual culture surrounding kabuki theater includes prints by major artists such as Utagawa Toyokuni (1769–1825)\, Utagawa Kunisada (1786–1865)\, Utagawa Kuniyoshi (1797–1861)\, and Toyohara Kunichika (1835–1900).\n\nLead support for this exhibition is provided by the University of Michigan Office of the Provost\, the National Endowment for the Arts\, the William T. and Dora G. Hunter Endowment\, AISIN\, the E. Rhodes and Leona B. Carpenter Foundation\, and the University of Michigan Center for Japanese Studies. Additional generous support is provided by the Japan Foundation and the University of Michigan Institute for Research on Women and Gender.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Manuel Álvarez Bravo: Mexico’s Poet of Light
DESCRIPTION:Manuel Álvarez Bravo spent nearly his entire career photographing his native Mexico. His style drew upon numerous international influences\, ranging from the Modernism of Edward Weston and Tina Modotti\, whom he met when they spent time in Mexico in the 1920s\, to the formally exquisite photojournalism of Henri Cartier-Bresson and Walker Evans\, whose work he knew in New York\, and the Surrealism of André Breton\, who visited Mexico around 1940.\n\nAlthough not strictly Surrealist\, many of Álvarez Bravo’s works manifest a similarly fantastical mood\; one of the artist’s most arresting qualities is his ability to imbue scenes of everyday life with an otherworldly\, metaphysical power. The twenty-three photographs in the exhibition\, drawn from UMMA’s collections\, show the artist’s ability to synthesize a personal—even nationalistic—style that merged the motifs of Mexican religious and indigenous works and plant forms (such as agave leaves) with a Modernist approach to image making. Throughout\, the presence of light as a wondrous metaphor and revealer of life animates even the emptiest and most silent of Álvarez Bravo’s scenes.\n\n**Special hours Sundays: 12–5pm\, CLOSED Mondays

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:CREES Noon Lecture. Bending Not Breaking: Crimean Tatar Resilience in Ukraine and Russian-occupied Crimea
DESCRIPTION:Based on ethnographic fieldwork in 2015 and 2016\, this presentation explores the lived experience of Crimean Tatars in Ukraine\, including Russian-occupied Crimea. While Ukraine has passed legislation recognizing the Crimean Tatars as an indigenous people\, the Russian Federation rejects the validity of this status and clings to the minority label. There is a correspondingly sharp difference in the treatment the group has received in territory controlled by Ukraine and Russian Federation. On the Ukrainian side\, a sense of political agency animates discourses of a common civic\, as opposed to ethnic Ukrainian identity. On the Russian side\, forced disappearances\, searches\, detentions\, beatings\, and surveillance suggest the genocidal policies begun by the Russian Empire in the eighteenth century continue. The common denominator under the sharp contrast is that neither government has truly defended the rights of the indigenous people. On both sides\, creativity and resilience developed over three tumultuous centuries is evident among the Crimean Tatar people. \n    \nGreta Uehling received her Ph.D. in cultural anthropology from the University of Michigan in 2000. In 2004\, she completed a post-doctoral fellowship with the Solomon Asch Center for the Study of Ethnopolitical Conflict. Her first book\, Beyond Memory (Palgrave Macmillan\, 2004)\, provides the first comprehensive study of the Crimean Tatars’ 1944 deportation\, and explores how memory and history facilitated repatriation to the historic homeland. Uehling is also the author of scholarly articles\, book chapters\, and blogs. Her 2013 fieldwork yielded “Genocide’s Aftermath: Neostalinism in Contemporary Crimea.” Uehling has contributed online articles to Cultural Anthropology\, Anthropology News\, Euromaidan Press\, The Conversation\, Antropoliteia\, Dissident\, and Savage Minds. A number of international organizations\, including the United Nations High Commissioner for Refugees\, have drawn upon Uehling’s expertise. In 2015\, she was awarded a Fulbright scholar grant. Uehling currently teaches in the Program in International and Comparative Studies and is also a faculty associate of U-M’s Center for Russian\, East European\, and Eurasian Studies. \n    \nPart of the Minorities series which will focus on the fates and challenges various minorities face\, from ethnic and racial groups to people with disabilities and members of LGBT communities. How do different political regimes come to define groups as minorities\, and how do they engage with them as a result? What can the experience of minorities in the other parts of the world teach us?

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:HET Brown Bag Seminar | Soft Black Hole Absorption Rates as Ward Identities
DESCRIPTION:Recently\, a number of exciting connections have been made between large gauge transformations (eg. BMS) and infrared physics (eg. Weinberg's soft graviton theorem). One of the more exciting explorations in this vein was Hawking-Perry-Strominger's (HPS) investigation of the consequences of these new symmetries for black hole physics. I will show very concretely that the Ward identity for the BMS-like large U(1) gauge transformations discussed by HPS fixes the low energy black hole absorption rate for photons. Time permitting\, I will discuss broader implications and future extensions.

SUMMARY:Meeting:Social Area Brown Bag
DESCRIPTION:Toward Understanding the Nuanced Nature of Social Stereotypes\n\nTraditional psychological and social science theories fail to account for the specific\, nuanced social stereotypes people naturally hold\, for why they hold these specific stereotypes (rather than others)\, and\, more generally\, for the functional manner in which people view one another. In recent years\, we have been developing and testing an alternative theoretical framework\, one that incorporates insights from life history theory into an affordance-management approach to social perception. Among other contributions\, this functional framework (1) provides a compelling account for why age and sex are core dimensions upon which stereotypes are built\; (2) introduces the idea of ‘ecology’ stereotypes (i.e.\, stereotypes about people who come from ‘desperate’ versus ‘hopeful’ ecologies)\; (3) emphasizes that the intersections of age\, sex\, and ecology better characterize the content of people’s naturally-existing stereotypes\; (4) predicts that natural stereotypes represent not general trait inclinations (e.g.\, young men are competitive) but rather behavioral inclinations as directed towards particular types of others (e.g.\, young men are competitive against young men)\; (5) suggests that\, at least in the U.S.\, many of the most pernicious race stereotypes are more usefully conceptualized in terms of ecology than of race\, per se\; (6) suggests the importance of differentiating between “base” and “affordance” stereotypes for predicting prejudices and discrimination\; and (7) suggests why certain social stereotypes are simultaneously as accurate as they are and biased in the particular directions they are.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Gifts of Art presents Michigan Wonderland Gems & Jewels
DESCRIPTION:Betsy Lehndorff’s jewelry is influenced by her life in Hubbard Lake in northeastern Michigan. Using her stone cutting and silversmithing skills\, she takes on six subjects that impact her isolated world: water\, winter\, plants\, critters\, rocks and the heavens. Her work\, often representational and sometimes narrative\, challenges the idea of jewelry as a status symbol. Lehndorff was born and raised in Ann Arbor\, and lived in Colorado until 2012. She is a granddaughter of renowned architect Albert Kahn (Hill Auditorium and the “Old Main” U-M Hospital) and daughter of Dr. Edgar A. Kahn\, who headed the neurosurgery department at the U-M Hospital in the 1960s.

DESCRIPTION:Fix a finite field\, over which our objects are defined. We will start by discussing a classical way to compute the number of degree d monic square-free polynomials\, using the zeta function of the affine line. Then we will discuss how to compute the same number\, using the machinery of etale cohomology\, treating many steps as a blackbox.\n\nBoth methods \"generalize\" to compute the number of degree d monic square-free polynomials with non-vanishing conditions\, but one of the answers is \"better\" than the other for computational purposes.\n\nThis is a graduate version of the talk I gave for Math Club on September 22 with the same title.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Department Colloquium | Phase Transitions and the Principle of Detailed Balance in Living Systems
DESCRIPTION:The mechanics of cells and tissues are largely governed by scaffolds of filamentous proteins that make up the cytoskeleton\, as well as extracellular matrices. Evidence is emerging that such networks can exhibit rich mechanical phase behavior. A classic example of a mechanical phase transition was identified by Maxwell for macroscopic engineering structures: networks of struts or springs exhibit a continuous\, second-order phase transition at the isostatic point\, where the number of constraints imposed by connectivity just equals the number of mechanical degrees of freedom. We will present recent theoretical predictions and experimental evidence for mechanical phase transitions in in both synthetic and biopolymer networks. Living systems typically operate far from thermodynamic equilibrium\, which affects both their dynamics and mechanical response. As a result of enzymatic activity at the molecular scale\, living systems characteristically violate detailed balance\, a fundamental principle of equilibrium statistical mechanics. We discuss violations of detailed balance at the meso-scale of whole cells.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Interdisciplinary Seminar in Quantitative Economics (ISQM)
DESCRIPTION:Abstract:\nAn extensive literature in computational social science examines how features of messages\, advertisements\, and other corpora affect individuals’ decisions\, but these analyses must specify the relevant features of the text before the experiment. Automated text analysis methods are able to discover features of text\, but these methods cannot be used to obtain the estimates of causal effects—the quantity of interest for applied researchers. We introduce a new experimental design and statistical model to simultaneously discover treatments in a corpora and estimate causal effects for these discovered treatments. We prove the conditions to identify the treatment effects of texts and introduce the supervised Indian Buffet process to discover those treatments. Our method enables us to discover treatments in a training set using a collection of texts and individuals’ responses to those texts\, and then estimate the effects of these interventions in a test set of new texts and survey respondents. We apply the model to an experiment about candidate biographies\, recovering intuitive features of voters’ decisions and revealing a penalty for lawyers and a bonus for military service.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Moving from Career Success to Retirement Success
DESCRIPTION:For those anticipating retirement in the next 24 months\, this six-session group on preparing for a satisfying retirement will combine exploration of relevant topics with creative expression and supportive discussion. The focus of this group will be on the transition of retirement and the challenges that come with it -- from questions like \"How will I define myself?\" to “How will I establish priorities and spend my time?”\n\nThe series will help you plan for the non-financial aspects of retirement\, such as redefining who you are\, revisiting what is most important to you\, exploring new interests and opportunities\, and maintaining social connections. You will also learn about what researchers find makes for a fulfilling retirement.\n \nThis series has the capacity for 14 participants\, and is open to all U-M staff\, faculty and students\, as well as the general public.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:RTG Working Seminar on Geometry\, Dynamics and Topology
DESCRIPTION:It is a classical result that a discrete faithful representation of a surface group into PSL(2\,R) is determined by the lengths of the images of finitely many simple curves on the surface. More generally\, Dal'bo and Kim showed that a Zariski dense representation of a group into a simple Lie group G is determined\, up to automorphisms of G\, by the lengths of the images of all  its elements. We will discuss this result and a recent result of Bridgeman\, Canary\, and Labourie that a representation of a surface group into PSL(3\,R) in the Hitchin component of  holonomies of convex projective surfaces is determined up to conjugacy by the length of images of simple closed curves.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Algebraic Geometry
DESCRIPTION: A complex projective variety is Q-Fano if it has klt singularities and the anti-canonical divisor is Q-Cartier and ample. Starting from dimension 2\, the anti-canonical volume of a Q-Fano variety can be arbitrarily large\, e.g. weighted projective spaces. Recently\, Fujita showed that an n-dimensional Kahler-Einstein Q-Fano variety has volume at most (n+1)^n. In this talk\, I will discuss a refinement of Fujita's volume upper bounds involving invariants of the local singularities. If time permits\, I will also talk about an equivalent relation between K-semistability and de Fernex-Ein-Mustata type inequalities. Part of this work is joint with Chi Li.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:Performing Arts Technology Seminar: Chris Chafe\, Stanford University
DESCRIPTION:Francis Bacon\, writing in 1626 as if he had one hand on a crystal ball\, imagined a world with “sound-houses\, where we practise and demonstrate all sounds and their generation” and “means to convey sounds in trunks and pipes\, in strange lines and distances.” Digital synthesis and rapidly expanding networks for network-based music are compellingly close to this vision. The lecture presents a survey of experimental music-making using the Internet. “What does it mean to \"be here\,' when here is there\, and there is here?” It's a question which not only pertains to these possibilities but also to real-time networked media in general.\n\nThis event is sponsored by the Department of Performing Arts Technology and by the College of Engineering.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Gifts of Art presents Avian Vessels: Mixed Media Sculpture
DESCRIPTION:Cincinnati based sculptor Karen Heyl has been professionally sculpting stone since 1984. She is best known for bas-relief limestone sculptures\, but in 2011 she developed an interest in sculpting clay using a similar relief carving technique. Out of this came an artistic exploration and refinement of birds using ceramic vessels as the starting point. Whimsical additions such as tails and beaks give each bird an individual personality. Each bird is perched on an individually carved limestone base to enhance the unique qualities that each bird displays. Heyl’s affinity for nature extends from her art to her love of gardening and the occasional golf game.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Sinking City\, Between Civilization and the Deep Blue Sea
DESCRIPTION:Jakarta\, Indonesia has a serious problem with flooding. The city is literally sinking while also experiencing climate change related sea-level rise. Add to that the yearly heavy rainfall the city sees from the Southeast Asian monsoon and a population that has swelled beyond ten million due to rapid urbanization\, and it’s easy to see why Jakarta’s infrastructure is experiencing significant strain. Jakarta isn’t an isolated example of this perfect storm. It represents the future difficulty that coastal cities all over the world are likely to face.\n\nUnderstanding that lessons learned in Jakarta can have a global impact\, University of Michigan alumus Frank Sedlar set out to help with flood mitigation in Jakarta. Frank earned his master of science degree from Michigan Engineering and also studied the Indonesian language while at the university. Photojournalist and filmmaker Marcin Szczepanski and writer Ben Logan from Michigan Engineering chronicled Frank’s experience while in Jakarta working on modern solutions to Jakarta’s growing problem.\n\nPlease join us for an opening reception on Friday\, October 21 at 5 PM at the International Institute Gallery. Refreshments will be served.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Symposium: Ambiguous Territory: Architecture\, Landscape\, and the Postnatural
DESCRIPTION:Free and open to the public\nAmbiguous Territory: Architecture\, Landscape\, and the Postnatural is a symposium and concurrent exhibition that situates contemporary discourses and practices of architecture and landscape within the context of the Postnatural\; the era of climate change\, the Anthropocene\, and altered ecologies. The symposium asks: In a time when humans have been fundamentally displaced from their presumed place of privilege\, philosophically as well as experientially\, should the disciplines of architecture and landscape architecture consider displacing themselves as well\, in order to establish new affiliations and avail new ways to approach contemporary questions of design in relation to the environment?\nBy bringing designers and scholars from these fields together the symposium and exhibition will highlight projects and ideas that are engaged with these issues from a variety of perspectives\, ranging from scale and experience to questions of matter. Participants will present research and work that use tactics of mediation to understand\, imagine\, interrupt\, and invent artifacts that exist at the large spatial and slow temporal scale of the Anthropocene.\nAmbiguous Territory will present design ideas and proposals from architects\, artists\, and landscape architects whose work challenges their disciplinary boundaries and long-held anthropocentric orientation and redefines the relationship between built and natural environments in an era of ecological anxiety.\nChairs:       \nKathy Velikov\, Associate Professor at the University of Michigan and principal of RVTR\nCathryn Dwyre\, Visiting Associate Professor at Pratt institute School of Architecture and partner at pneumastudio\nChris Perry\, Associate Professor at Rensselaer Architecture and partner at pneumastudio\nDavid Salomon\, Assistant Professor of Art History at Ithaca College.\nKeynotes:\nLiam Young\, urbanist\, designer and futurist\; founder of the futures think tank Tomorrows Thoughts Today (tomorrowsthoughtstoday.com)\; the ‘Unknown Fields Division’ (unknownfieldsdivision.com) at the Architectural Association in London\, and the ‘Fiction and Entertainment’ program at SciArc\nDavid Gissen\, author\, historian\, and Professor of Architecture and Visual and Critical Studies at the California College of the Arts and co-director of the Experimental History Project (http://davidgissen.org/)\nFor a full list of speakers and bios\, please visit the Ambiguous Territory symposium web page. \nAmbiguous Territory Symposium Schedule\nAll events in Taubman College Commons unless otherwise noted\nThursday October 5th\n5:00pm\nAmbiguous Territory Exhibition Reception\n(Taubman College Gallery)\n6:00pm\nKeynote Lecture: Liam Young\n(Art + Architecture Auditorium)\n \nFriday October 6th (all events occuring in The Commons)\n9:00am\nCoffee\n9:30am\nWelcome: Dean Jonathan Massey\nIntroductory Remarks: Associate Dean of Research and Creative Practice Geoffrey Thün\nSymposium Introduction: Kathy Velikov\n10:00am\nAtmospheric Mediations Panel\nIntroduction: Kathy Velikov\nSpeaker 1: Christopher Hight\nSpeaker 2: Lydia Kallipoliti\nSpeaker 3: Sean Lally\nRespondent: Meredith Miller\nRoundtable Discussion\n12:00pm\nLunch Break (lunch not provided)\n1:00pm\nBiologic Mediations Panel\nIntroduction: David Salomon\nSpeaker 1: Jennifer Peeples\nSpeaker 2: Linsdey french\nSpeaker 3: Ricardo de Ostos\nRespondent: Ellie Abrons\nRoundtable Discussion\n3:00pm\nCoffee Break\n3:30pm\nGeologic Mediations Panel\nIntroduction: Cathryn Dwyre and Chris Perry\nSpeaker 1: Alessandra Ponte\nSpeaker 2: Bradley Cantrell\nSpeaker 3: Rania Ghosn and El Hadi Jazairy\nRespondent: Mark Lindquist\nRoundtable Discussion\n5:30pm\nBreak\n6:00pm\nKeynote Lecture: David Gissen\nAmbiguous Territory Exhibition \nSeptember 27th – October 18th 2017\nUniversity of Michigan Taubman College Gallery\nDecember 2018 – January 2019\nPratt Manhattan Gallery\, New York

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Foreshadowing - Endangered and Threatened Plant Species
DESCRIPTION:A unique exhibit of botanical portraits that illuminates native and invasive plant species in a different light. Local artist and photographer Jane Kramer spent weeks exploring Michigan’s nature preserves and botanical gardens---including Matthaei---taking pictures of the shadows cast by native plant species. The shadow images were then transferred to handmade paper created from invasive plant species. For Kramer the shadows speak to the fragility of threatened plants and their struggle to survive in a changing environment that includes invasive species. The coupling of shadow and paper underscores the complex relationship between invasive and endangered plant species. Free admission. Open Wednesdays until 8 pm.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:IMAGINING DEMOCRACY: ELITES AND LEADERS IN RUSSIA’S LONG JOURNEY FROM COMMUNISM
DESCRIPTION:Dr. Kullberg  is Professor of Political Science at EMU and Faculty Associate of the University of Michigan’s Center for Russian and East European Studies. She conducted the first focus group study of Soviet elite ideology in 1991 and participated as an investigator in Harvard University’s study of Russia’s first competitive national elections in 1993. In 2007\, she was a Fulbright Scholar in Samara\, Russia.\n\nThe presentation will seek to explain the long-term trajectory of Russian politics. It will address four major questions: Why did communism collapse? Why did democracy not take root in Russia? How has Vladimir Putin managed to roll back the democratic reforms of the late 1980s and 1990s and return the country to dictatorship? Is\nRussia somehow a prisoner of its own authoritarian past\, or is a return to democracy possible?\n\nThis is the fifth in a six-lecture series. The subject is Russia – Unriddled. The next lecture will be October 27\, entitled THE RUSSIAN ECONOMY IN THREE ACTS

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Catie Newell: Overnight
DESCRIPTION:Detroit-based architect Catie Newell’s work is focused on the tactile\, sensory qualities of the materials we use to build things: their texture\, density\, or malleability. Her investigations combine architectural research\, material studies\, and art experiments\, a strategy she began as a student that now defines her career.\n\nThe most important element in her formal vocabulary is light\, not only as a “material” in its own right\, but also as a condition. Varying in strength\, form\, and duration\, light constructs architecture as a situational experience rather than a fixed space. Newell’s fascination with light is a fascination with darkness. Through urban interventions\, installations\, and photographs\, she investigates how darkness creates alternate environments\, with unseen geographies\, untold histories\, and secret identities.\n\nNewell\, assistant professor of architecture at U-M Taubman College of Architecture and Urban Planning\, is a recent recipient of the Rome Prize in architecture. Overnight includes photographs from her Rome project as well as new photography from the series Nightly\, featuring nighttime images of Detroit streetscapes and interiors\, alongside a site-specific sculptural installation commissioned by the Museum.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Japanese Prints of Kabuki Theater from the Collection of the University of Michigan Museum of Art
DESCRIPTION:Kabuki actors were superstars in eighteenth- and nineteenth-century Japan. They were admired by passionate fans with an insatiable appetite for images of them\, fed by a publishing industry that mass-produced colorful woodblock prints of actors on stage that could be cheaply purchased as souvenirs of or substitutes for a theater experience. Japanese Prints of Kabuki Theater from the Collection of the University of Michigan Museum of Art presents a selection of these dramatic prints that connected fans to their idols\, including off- or backstage portrayals that satisfied fans’ voyeuristic curiosity about their favorite actors’ lives\, fantasy scenes of actors in unlikely groupings\, and even death portraits of especially famous actors. This introduction to the visual culture surrounding kabuki theater includes prints by major artists such as Utagawa Toyokuni (1769–1825)\, Utagawa Kunisada (1786–1865)\, Utagawa Kuniyoshi (1797–1861)\, and Toyohara Kunichika (1835–1900).\n\nLead support for this exhibition is provided by the University of Michigan Office of the Provost\, the National Endowment for the Arts\, the William T. and Dora G. Hunter Endowment\, AISIN\, the E. Rhodes and Leona B. Carpenter Foundation\, and the University of Michigan Center for Japanese Studies. Additional generous support is provided by the Japan Foundation and the University of Michigan Institute for Research on Women and Gender.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Manuel Álvarez Bravo: Mexico’s Poet of Light
DESCRIPTION:Manuel Álvarez Bravo spent nearly his entire career photographing his native Mexico. His style drew upon numerous international influences\, ranging from the Modernism of Edward Weston and Tina Modotti\, whom he met when they spent time in Mexico in the 1920s\, to the formally exquisite photojournalism of Henri Cartier-Bresson and Walker Evans\, whose work he knew in New York\, and the Surrealism of André Breton\, who visited Mexico around 1940.\n\nAlthough not strictly Surrealist\, many of Álvarez Bravo’s works manifest a similarly fantastical mood\; one of the artist’s most arresting qualities is his ability to imbue scenes of everyday life with an otherworldly\, metaphysical power. The twenty-three photographs in the exhibition\, drawn from UMMA’s collections\, show the artist’s ability to synthesize a personal—even nationalistic—style that merged the motifs of Mexican religious and indigenous works and plant forms (such as agave leaves) with a Modernist approach to image making. Throughout\, the presence of light as a wondrous metaphor and revealer of life animates even the emptiest and most silent of Álvarez Bravo’s scenes.\n\n**Special hours Sundays: 12–5pm\, CLOSED Mondays

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Cognition\, Culture\, and Complexity: Modeling the Emergence of Shared Social Realities from Individual Mental Representation
DESCRIPTION:The cultures we belong to affect far more than just our practices and beliefs - they also fundamentally shape how we perceive the world\, each other\, and ourselves. Many rich theoretical traditions in the social sciences have long emphasized this “socially constructed” nature of our experience. To date\, however\, insights in this arena have resisted formal specification and modeling. In the first part of this talk\, I will show how this historical barrier might be overcome by using complex systems research to theorize how the individual\, automatic cognitive processes responsible for reflexive sense-making in situations (i.e. mental representation) will\, in social contexts\, lead to the emergence of shared social realities and collective cultural dynamics. In the second half of the talk\, I will then go on to discuss how this perspective might be used to develop more analytically precise and empirically generative ways of getting at social construction processes in real-world contexts.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Economic Development
DESCRIPTION:Abstract:\nThis paper uses a natural experiment to estimate the causal effect of temporary trade protection on long-term economic development. I find that regions in the French Empire which became better protected from trade with the British for exogenous reasons during the Napoleonic Wars (1803-15) increased capacity in mechanized cotton spinning to a larger extent than regions which remained more exposed to trade. In the long-run\, regions with exogenously higher spinning capacity had: i.) higher activity in mechanized cotton spinning\; ii.) higher labor-productivity for mechanized cotton-spinning firms\, and\; iii.) higher value-added per capita in industry.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Gifts of Art presents Michigan Wonderland Gems & Jewels
DESCRIPTION:Betsy Lehndorff’s jewelry is influenced by her life in Hubbard Lake in northeastern Michigan. Using her stone cutting and silversmithing skills\, she takes on six subjects that impact her isolated world: water\, winter\, plants\, critters\, rocks and the heavens. Her work\, often representational and sometimes narrative\, challenges the idea of jewelry as a status symbol. Lehndorff was born and raised in Ann Arbor\, and lived in Colorado until 2012. She is a granddaughter of renowned architect Albert Kahn (Hill Auditorium and the “Old Main” U-M Hospital) and daughter of Dr. Edgar A. Kahn\, who headed the neurosurgery department at the U-M Hospital in the 1960s.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Commutative Algebra
DESCRIPTION:The Hilbert-Kunz multiplicity and the Frobenius Betti numbers are numerical invariants that can be attached to any local ring of prime characteristic. Other than having interesting properties on their own\, they are particularly useful because they measure the singularities of the ring. For instance\, Watanabe and Yoshida showed that\, under mild assumptions\, the Hilbert-Kunz multiplicity is one if and only if the ring is regular. Aberbach and Li proved that these facts are also equivalent to the vanishing of the higher Frobenius Betti numbers. In this talk\, we will discuss how to define these invariants for rings that are not necessarily local. We will also discuss how these global invariants relate to the local ones\, and how they still measure the singularities of the ring. This is based on joint work with Thomas Polstra and Yongwei Yao.

DESCRIPTION:We will continue the proof of Paving Conjecture and finish the proof of Kadison-Singer problem using Marcus-Spielman-Srivastava theorem. Then\, we will move to the proof Marcus-Spielman-Srivastava theorem. The proof breaks into two parts: The first part is about the control of mean characteristic polynomial. We start by examining the fact that characteristic functions of linear sum of positive semi-definite rank one fixed random Hermitian matrices are real stable random polynomials. Using properties of real stable polynomials\, we will compare the maximal root of characteristic polynomial and that of the expected characteristic polynomial. The second part is about non-linear first-moment method. If time is permits\, we will begin with the derivation of certain convexity property of real stable polynomials. \n Speaker(s): Han Huang (University of Michigan)

SUMMARY:Film Screening:DISC Film and Discussion. Facing Mirrors
DESCRIPTION:Negar Azarbayjani\, director. In Persian and German with English subtitles (102 min.\, 2011). \n\nSet in contemporary Iran\, \"Facing Mirrors\" is a story of an unlikely and daring friendship that develops despite social norms and religious beliefs. Although Rana is a traditional wife and mother\, she is forced to drive a cab to pay off the debt that keeps her husband in prison. By chance she picks up the wealthy and rebellious Edi\, who is desperately awaiting a passport to leave the country. At first Rana attempts to help\, but when she realizes that Edi is transgender\, a dangerous series of conflicts arises. Directed by Negar Azarbayjani\, \"Facing Mirrors\" is the first narrative film from Iran to feature a transgender main character. \n\nThe film will be followed by a discussion led by U-M faculty Samer Ali\, associate professor of Arabic language and literature\, and Charlotte Karem Albrecht\, assistant professor of American culture and women's studies.\n\nPart of the series Contemporary Islamic Identities.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:EEB Thursday Seminar: Fens\, bogs\, and polygons (oh my!):  Effects of ecosystem succession and permafrost on wetland carbon dynamics
DESCRIPTION:Wetlands are an important component of the hydrological cycle\, a globally important carbon stock\, and the largest natural source of atmospheric methane\, a potent greenhouse gas. However\, not all wetlands function in the same way due to the combined effects of hydrology\, nutrient status\, and vegetation composition. Wetland ecosystem function\, such as apparent carbon accumulation rates and methane emissions\, differ significantly among wetland types and thus necessitate a distinction among wetland environmental classifications when considering wetlands in the global carbon cycle. Finally\, permafrost is common in high-latitude wetlands and effects of permafrost thaw dramatically alter the ecosystem carbon balance. Understanding the permafrost history and effects on peatlands is key to understanding the future response of soil carbon stocks in high latitude wetlands to climate change. \n\nHere\, I discuss the effects of permafrost aggradation and thaw on high-latitude wetland ecosystem succession\, soil properties\, carbon accumulation rates\, and methane emissions using data synthesis of peatland plant macrofossil records of 1060 peat cores from more than 500 sites from across the northern hemisphere. The wetland environmental type (fen\, bog\, tundra and boreal permafrost\, including polygons\, and thawed permafrost) was classified using the composition of plant macrofossils within the peat core records. Consequences of permafrost aggradation differed between boreal and tundra biomes\, including differences in vegetation composition\, C/N ratios\, N content\, and carbon accumulation rates. In the conceptual model of wetland ecosystem succession\, fens transition to bogs as organic matter accumulates and then to permafrost peatlands in high latitudes. However\, the data showed that ecosystem succession was more complex\, including numerous transitions from bogs to fens\, permafrost aggradation within fens\, and permafrost thaw and re-aggradation. Finally\, I use the records of the wetland environmental type from the data synthesis to reconstruct methane emissions from northern high-latitude wetlands in the present day and in the past.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:Fall 2016 Communication and Media Speaker Series | When User Comments Meet the News: Korean Case Studies
DESCRIPTION:With the emergence of various forms of Internet-based communication\, the blurred boundary between mass and interpersonal communication has been frequently noted\, but tends to remain as rhetoric. In a series of studies\, I have borrowed theoretical constructs and models from the mass communication literature and tested their applicability beyond traditional boundaries. In South Korea\, user-generated comments on news websites\, a signature form of interpersonal interactivity\, have been blamed for distorting public opinion and fostering prejudice and stereotypes against particular social groups. My research has examined when and how user comments affect the way people process and make sense of the news and perceive reality. Results often challenged long-held assumptions of existing theories\, helped elucidate the underlying mechanisms\, and/or extended their boundaries. \n\nEun-Ju Lee (Ph. D. Stanford University) is Professor in the Department of Communication at Seoul National University\, Republic of Korea. Her research centers on social cognition and social influence in computer-based communication. She has investigated how the mediation by technology affects the ways in which people form impressions about their interactants\, process information\, and respond to group dynamics. Her more recent projects are concerned with how user comments on Internet news sites shape individuals’ perceptions of and reactions to news and how social media are utilized as a channel for para-social interaction with politicians. She has published over 50 journal articles and book chapters and her work has won several top paper awards from various divisions of International Communication Association (ICA)\, National Communication Association (NCA)\, and Association for Education in Journalism and Mass Communication (AEJMC). She was a Board Member-at-Large for ICA (2009-2012)\, representing East Asia\, and has served as Associate Editor for the Journal of Communication and Human Communication Research. She also co-edited Media Psychology and is incoming Editor-in-Chief of Human Communication Research.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Logic
DESCRIPTION:(One of the versions of) Hindman's theorem states that\, whenever we partition an infinite abelian group G in two cells\, there exists an infinite subset X of G such that the set FS(X) consisting of all sums of finitely many distinct elements of X is entirely contained within one of the cells of the partition. In this talk we will show that\, when one attempts to replace both instances of \"infinite\" with \"uncountable\" in the theorem above\, the resulting statement is not only false\, but actually very false. This is talk 2 out of n (where n is a still unknown countable ordinal greater than or equal to 2). Joint work with Assaf Rinot.  Speaker(s): David Fernandez Breton (University of Michigan)

SUMMARY:Other:Proteoform Analytics for Biomarker Discovery by Top-Down Mass Spectrometry
DESCRIPTION:Advancements in chromatography\, mass spectrometry\, and informatics have made “birds-eye-view” (top-down) proteomics increasingly available to the masses.   Key to the field’s expansion is the high resolving power afforded by modern mass spectrometers which provides unparalleled clarity on the microheterogeneity that exists in a proteome at the proteoform-level.  With technology advances showing duty-cycles and sensitivities that surpasses many conventional bioassays (gel-electrophoresis or western blots)\, it is easy to envision molecular biologists and clinical scientists applying TD in their daily screens.  However\, omic-level screens are still largely done in dedicated research labs. Here we present innovations that attempt to address bottlenecks and promote widespread implementation of TD for molecular/clinical discovery. Highlighted are advancements in multidimensional chromatography and proteoform analytics that streamline comprehensive proteoform analysis at the proteome level.  \nSteven Patrie (University of Texas Southwestern Medical Center)

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:Wynwood Walls - Art as Ignition: Presenting Jessica Goldman Srebnick with Tristan Eaton and Kashnik
DESCRIPTION:Dark\, gritty\, and desolate were words used to describe Miami’s Wynwood neighborhood in 2006. Wanting to revitalize the neighborhood\, renowned place-maker\, the late property developer and patron of the arts Tony Goldman\, saw the natural vocabulary of Wynwood was its hand-painted signage\, graphics\, and graffiti. In 2009\, Wynwood Walls began\, arguably the nation’s only outdoor street art museum\, open to the public without charge. Composed of six separate warehouses\, the exterior walls serve as giant canvases for the greatest street art collection ever assembled in one place. In 2010\, the Wynwood Doors were added in what was formerly a junkyard. The culmination of the project is the Wynwood Walls Garden\, completed in December 2015. The project expands the privately owned and funded Wynwood Walls Garden to an incredible 45\,000 square feet of open space in an urban core.\n\nThe project has evolved into a living Museum of the Streets\, with new murals added each year\, attracting hundreds of thousands of people. Since its inception\, the space has seen over 70 artists representing 18 countries who have covered over 85\,000 square feet of walls\, all at the center of a now thriving\, diverse\, and inspiring neighborhood.\n\nJessica Goldman Srebnick is the CEO of Goldman Properties and the founder of Goldman Global Arts (GGA)\, an organization that produces impactful\, conceptual\, and large-scale creative projects. GGA is dedicated to Miami’s emerging Wynwood Arts District\, with a key focus on the vitality\, aesthetic\, and artistic components of all products created by the firm.\n\nTristan Eaton is a graffiti artist\, street art muralist\, illustrator\, and toy designer. Eaton’s large-scale mural work features a meticulous\, visual collage of pop imagery executed freehand with spray paint on a colossal scale and can be found in cities across the globe. His work is also part of the Museum of Modern Art NY’s permanent collection.\n\nKashink is one of the few active female artists in the French graffiti/street art scene. She wears a mustache and only paints men\, preferably fat and hairy\, looking like sensitive gangsters\, alien-looking ogres\, or shaman from ancient tribes. Inspired by both Hispanic and Slavic origins of pop art\, her work considers issues of the absurdity of social interactions through the theme of masks and the various cultural traditions surrounding death.\n\nSupported by the University of Michigan Institute for Humanities\, Chelsea River Gallery.

SUMMARY:Performance:Faculty Recital: Tiffany Ng
DESCRIPTION:Featuring Tiffany Ng (SMTD)\, Greg Niemeyer (UC Berkeley)\, Chris Chafe (Stanford)\, Susan Lepri (UM College of Engineering)\n\nTo celebrate the 20th anniversary of the Lurie Carillon\, you’re invited to help transform Gerstacker Grove into a crowdsourced carillon of Lurie Tower’s 60 bells surrounded and augmented by the audience’s smartphones. Join carillonist Tiffany Ng in playing “A Day in the Sun\,” a musical piece generated from algorithmic sonification of solar data. The sun completes a rotation on its axis every 27 days\, producing a cycle of solar weather. Artists Greg Niemeyer and Chris Chafe\, in collaboration with CLaSP Associate Professor Susan Lepri\, give voice to those changes over time\, based on solar radiation data from the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) for the month of June 2016. The audience will become part of the soundscape by querying the data from their smartphones\, which will play samples of the Lurie bells in harmony with the carillon. Join us to hear the sun’s activity as the Grove was being completed!\n\nCo-sponsored by the Department of Organ\, the Department of Performing Arts Technology\, and the College of Engineering.\n\nTo view a time-lapse video of the creation of the Eda U.

SUMMARY:Presentation:UM Psychology Community Talk with Dr. Fiona Lee
DESCRIPTION:Title: Living competently in a global world\n\nWe live in an increasingly global world where people live\, work\, and study in countries other than their own. Even when living in our home countries\, we interact with people from all over the world. What are the skills that are needed to succeed in this global world? How do we develop and learn these skills? Recent research has shown that the answer to these questions are not as intuitive as one would suspect. Exposing yourself to other cultures does not always help and can sometimes backfire. However\, there are many things you can do to develop your global competence skills\, even if you have never left your home country! In this talk\, Professor Fiona Lee of the Department of Psychology will discuss some of this research\, and provide concrete strategies you can use to increase your global competence.

DESCRIPTION:\"An eager\, unapologetic sincerity flows from the heart of David Wilcox's acoustic music\,\" says Rolling Stone. David Wilcox is a singer-songwriter whose music navigates a path through the confusion and pain\, the emotional static of modern life. \"I'm drawn to artists who disclose something about themselves and let you in their world\,\" David says\, and to a large extent he's one of them -- yet contained within his warm voice and effortless guitar playing is a more general kind of hope\, a life-affirming message that anyone can understand. David Wilcox believes that the right song at the right time changes people’s lives. He comes to Michigan with a new release of original songs\, \"Blaze.\"

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Gifts of Art presents Avian Vessels: Mixed Media Sculpture
DESCRIPTION:Cincinnati based sculptor Karen Heyl has been professionally sculpting stone since 1984. She is best known for bas-relief limestone sculptures\, but in 2011 she developed an interest in sculpting clay using a similar relief carving technique. Out of this came an artistic exploration and refinement of birds using ceramic vessels as the starting point. Whimsical additions such as tails and beaks give each bird an individual personality. Each bird is perched on an individually carved limestone base to enhance the unique qualities that each bird displays. Heyl’s affinity for nature extends from her art to her love of gardening and the occasional golf game.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Sinking City\, Between Civilization and the Deep Blue Sea
DESCRIPTION:Jakarta\, Indonesia has a serious problem with flooding. The city is literally sinking while also experiencing climate change related sea-level rise. Add to that the yearly heavy rainfall the city sees from the Southeast Asian monsoon and a population that has swelled beyond ten million due to rapid urbanization\, and it’s easy to see why Jakarta’s infrastructure is experiencing significant strain. Jakarta isn’t an isolated example of this perfect storm. It represents the future difficulty that coastal cities all over the world are likely to face.\n\nUnderstanding that lessons learned in Jakarta can have a global impact\, University of Michigan alumus Frank Sedlar set out to help with flood mitigation in Jakarta. Frank earned his master of science degree from Michigan Engineering and also studied the Indonesian language while at the university. Photojournalist and filmmaker Marcin Szczepanski and writer Ben Logan from Michigan Engineering chronicled Frank’s experience while in Jakarta working on modern solutions to Jakarta’s growing problem.\n\nPlease join us for an opening reception on Friday\, October 21 at 5 PM at the International Institute Gallery. Refreshments will be served.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Symposium: Ambiguous Territory: Architecture\, Landscape\, and the Postnatural
DESCRIPTION:Free and open to the public\nAmbiguous Territory: Architecture\, Landscape\, and the Postnatural is a symposium and concurrent exhibition that situates contemporary discourses and practices of architecture and landscape within the context of the Postnatural\; the era of climate change\, the Anthropocene\, and altered ecologies. The symposium asks: In a time when humans have been fundamentally displaced from their presumed place of privilege\, philosophically as well as experientially\, should the disciplines of architecture and landscape architecture consider displacing themselves as well\, in order to establish new affiliations and avail new ways to approach contemporary questions of design in relation to the environment?\nBy bringing designers and scholars from these fields together the symposium and exhibition will highlight projects and ideas that are engaged with these issues from a variety of perspectives\, ranging from scale and experience to questions of matter. Participants will present research and work that use tactics of mediation to understand\, imagine\, interrupt\, and invent artifacts that exist at the large spatial and slow temporal scale of the Anthropocene.\nAmbiguous Territory will present design ideas and proposals from architects\, artists\, and landscape architects whose work challenges their disciplinary boundaries and long-held anthropocentric orientation and redefines the relationship between built and natural environments in an era of ecological anxiety.\nChairs:       \nKathy Velikov\, Associate Professor at the University of Michigan and principal of RVTR\nCathryn Dwyre\, Visiting Associate Professor at Pratt institute School of Architecture and partner at pneumastudio\nChris Perry\, Associate Professor at Rensselaer Architecture and partner at pneumastudio\nDavid Salomon\, Assistant Professor of Art History at Ithaca College.\nKeynotes:\nLiam Young\, urbanist\, designer and futurist\; founder of the futures think tank Tomorrows Thoughts Today (tomorrowsthoughtstoday.com)\; the ‘Unknown Fields Division’ (unknownfieldsdivision.com) at the Architectural Association in London\, and the ‘Fiction and Entertainment’ program at SciArc\nDavid Gissen\, author\, historian\, and Professor of Architecture and Visual and Critical Studies at the California College of the Arts and co-director of the Experimental History Project (http://davidgissen.org/)\nFor a full list of speakers and bios\, please visit the Ambiguous Territory symposium web page. \nAmbiguous Territory Symposium Schedule\nAll events in Taubman College Commons unless otherwise noted\nThursday October 5th\n5:00pm\nAmbiguous Territory Exhibition Reception\n(Taubman College Gallery)\n6:00pm\nKeynote Lecture: Liam Young\n(Art + Architecture Auditorium)\n \nFriday October 6th (all events occuring in The Commons)\n9:00am\nCoffee\n9:30am\nWelcome: Dean Jonathan Massey\nIntroductory Remarks: Associate Dean of Research and Creative Practice Geoffrey Thün\nSymposium Introduction: Kathy Velikov\n10:00am\nAtmospheric Mediations Panel\nIntroduction: Kathy Velikov\nSpeaker 1: Christopher Hight\nSpeaker 2: Lydia Kallipoliti\nSpeaker 3: Sean Lally\nRespondent: Meredith Miller\nRoundtable Discussion\n12:00pm\nLunch Break (lunch not provided)\n1:00pm\nBiologic Mediations Panel\nIntroduction: David Salomon\nSpeaker 1: Jennifer Peeples\nSpeaker 2: Linsdey french\nSpeaker 3: Ricardo de Ostos\nRespondent: Ellie Abrons\nRoundtable Discussion\n3:00pm\nCoffee Break\n3:30pm\nGeologic Mediations Panel\nIntroduction: Cathryn Dwyre and Chris Perry\nSpeaker 1: Alessandra Ponte\nSpeaker 2: Bradley Cantrell\nSpeaker 3: Rania Ghosn and El Hadi Jazairy\nRespondent: Mark Lindquist\nRoundtable Discussion\n5:30pm\nBreak\n6:00pm\nKeynote Lecture: David Gissen\nAmbiguous Territory Exhibition \nSeptember 27th – October 18th 2017\nUniversity of Michigan Taubman College Gallery\nDecember 2018 – January 2019\nPratt Manhattan Gallery\, New York

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Foreshadowing - Endangered and Threatened Plant Species
DESCRIPTION:A unique exhibit of botanical portraits that illuminates native and invasive plant species in a different light. Local artist and photographer Jane Kramer spent weeks exploring Michigan’s nature preserves and botanical gardens---including Matthaei---taking pictures of the shadows cast by native plant species. The shadow images were then transferred to handmade paper created from invasive plant species. For Kramer the shadows speak to the fragility of threatened plants and their struggle to survive in a changing environment that includes invasive species. The coupling of shadow and paper underscores the complex relationship between invasive and endangered plant species. Free admission. Open Wednesdays until 8 pm.

SUMMARY:Presentation:P&SC Brown Bag: Understanding the development of callous unemotional traits and antisocial behavior
DESCRIPTION:Youth antisocial behavior\, which includes violence\, rule-breaking\, and substance use\, represents a major public health concern because of the negative economic\, social\, and health effects it has on perpetrators\, victims\, and families. To better understand its developmental origins\, we need to improve our characterization of the heterogeneity within antisocial behavior. My talk will focus on a dimension within antisocial behavior defined by high levels of callous unemotional (CU) traits\, which comprises low empathy and guilt and a lack of caring about others\, and predicts particularly severe and chronic aggression and rule-breaking across development. I will present research examining the origins of CU traits\, focusing on early childhood given that this developmental period heralds the emergence of individual differences in empathy\, guilt\, and conscience. My work evaluates the meaning and measurement of CU behaviors in early childhood and their role as a developmental precursor to CU traits and severe behavior problems later in childhood. I will also present findings from my work examining the importance of context and the environment to the development of CU behaviors\, with a particular focus on parenting practices. The talk will conclude with a summary of my recent research modeling the interaction of context and biology over time and how specific environmental\, neural\, and genetic risk factors interact to increase the risk that children develop CU behaviors and more severe antisocial behavior.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Catie Newell: Overnight
DESCRIPTION:Detroit-based architect Catie Newell’s work is focused on the tactile\, sensory qualities of the materials we use to build things: their texture\, density\, or malleability. Her investigations combine architectural research\, material studies\, and art experiments\, a strategy she began as a student that now defines her career.\n\nThe most important element in her formal vocabulary is light\, not only as a “material” in its own right\, but also as a condition. Varying in strength\, form\, and duration\, light constructs architecture as a situational experience rather than a fixed space. Newell’s fascination with light is a fascination with darkness. Through urban interventions\, installations\, and photographs\, she investigates how darkness creates alternate environments\, with unseen geographies\, untold histories\, and secret identities.\n\nNewell\, assistant professor of architecture at U-M Taubman College of Architecture and Urban Planning\, is a recent recipient of the Rome Prize in architecture. Overnight includes photographs from her Rome project as well as new photography from the series Nightly\, featuring nighttime images of Detroit streetscapes and interiors\, alongside a site-specific sculptural installation commissioned by the Museum.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Japanese Prints of Kabuki Theater from the Collection of the University of Michigan Museum of Art
DESCRIPTION:Kabuki actors were superstars in eighteenth- and nineteenth-century Japan. They were admired by passionate fans with an insatiable appetite for images of them\, fed by a publishing industry that mass-produced colorful woodblock prints of actors on stage that could be cheaply purchased as souvenirs of or substitutes for a theater experience. Japanese Prints of Kabuki Theater from the Collection of the University of Michigan Museum of Art presents a selection of these dramatic prints that connected fans to their idols\, including off- or backstage portrayals that satisfied fans’ voyeuristic curiosity about their favorite actors’ lives\, fantasy scenes of actors in unlikely groupings\, and even death portraits of especially famous actors. This introduction to the visual culture surrounding kabuki theater includes prints by major artists such as Utagawa Toyokuni (1769–1825)\, Utagawa Kunisada (1786–1865)\, Utagawa Kuniyoshi (1797–1861)\, and Toyohara Kunichika (1835–1900).\n\nLead support for this exhibition is provided by the University of Michigan Office of the Provost\, the National Endowment for the Arts\, the William T. and Dora G. Hunter Endowment\, AISIN\, the E. Rhodes and Leona B. Carpenter Foundation\, and the University of Michigan Center for Japanese Studies. Additional generous support is provided by the Japan Foundation and the University of Michigan Institute for Research on Women and Gender.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Manuel Álvarez Bravo: Mexico’s Poet of Light
DESCRIPTION:Manuel Álvarez Bravo spent nearly his entire career photographing his native Mexico. His style drew upon numerous international influences\, ranging from the Modernism of Edward Weston and Tina Modotti\, whom he met when they spent time in Mexico in the 1920s\, to the formally exquisite photojournalism of Henri Cartier-Bresson and Walker Evans\, whose work he knew in New York\, and the Surrealism of André Breton\, who visited Mexico around 1940.\n\nAlthough not strictly Surrealist\, many of Álvarez Bravo’s works manifest a similarly fantastical mood\; one of the artist’s most arresting qualities is his ability to imbue scenes of everyday life with an otherworldly\, metaphysical power. The twenty-three photographs in the exhibition\, drawn from UMMA’s collections\, show the artist’s ability to synthesize a personal—even nationalistic—style that merged the motifs of Mexican religious and indigenous works and plant forms (such as agave leaves) with a Modernist approach to image making. Throughout\, the presence of light as a wondrous metaphor and revealer of life animates even the emptiest and most silent of Álvarez Bravo’s scenes.\n\n**Special hours Sundays: 12–5pm\, CLOSED Mondays

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Bridging the Gap: Statistical Methods and Agent-Based Modeling in Social Epidemiology
DESCRIPTION:CSAAW Event\n\nABSTRACT\nCalls for greater integration of complex systems methods in the study of social factors contributing to health have gone largely unanswered due to the difficulty of integrating data with computational modeling methods in these contexts. This study utilizes a generalized linear mixed-effects model of risk factors at the school and individual levels for smoking experimentation in order to present parameter estimates for an agent-based model to identify the mechanisms of social connectedness that contribute to smoking initiation. While many studies identify adolescent popularity as a risk factor for smoking initiation\, none have identified the specific characteristics of network connectivity that are responsible for the perpetuation of smoking behavior. This attempt to integrate modeling methods presents a potential solution for the integration of computational modeling with traditional statistical methods prevalent among social epidemiologists. The results from this study emphasize the critical importance of accounting for the behavior of immediate friends\, particularly when considering global centrality network measures as a proxy for measuring popularity.

SUMMARY:Conference / Symposium:Industrial Upgrading and Economic Growth in China
DESCRIPTION:This conference will examine China’s changing development model and the role of industrial upgrading in promoting new sources of growth and development. We will seek to understand (1) the global\, regional and national comparative and historical competitiveness contexts in which China’s industrial upgrading will take place\, and (2) new technologies\, the industrial ecosystems required for them to emerge and thrive\, and their business\, economic and social implications going forward. As history shows us\, successful industrial upgrading is not a purely technical\, market- and technology-driven process\, but also a social process grounded in particular local circumstances.  Industrial upgrading also involves deindustrialization\, with new technologies displacing the old\, hardware giving way to software\, production yielding to consumption\, and jobs being destroyed as others are created--processes that also need to be managed by governments and communities.\n\nKeynote presentations will be given by Justin Yifu Lin\, Lieberthal-Rogel Center for Chinese Studies Distinguished Visitor\, Professor at Peking University and Former Chief Economist of the World Bank and Shang-Jin Wei\, Chief Economist at the Asian Development Bank and Professor at Columbia University. \n\nThe Industrial Upgrading and Economic Growth in China conference is presented by Ross China Initiatives\, LSA Department of Economics\, and theLieberthal-Rogel Center for Chinese Studies\, and co-sponsored by the Gerald R. Ford School of Public Policy and Ross Executive Education.\n\nPlease contact ross-globalinitiatives@umich.edu for more information.

SUMMARY:Performance:Dance Master Class Repertory Series: Ricki Mason “Lou Henry Hoover”
DESCRIPTION:SMTD Dance Alumna Ricki Mason\, who will receive an “Emerging Artist Award” at this year’s SMTD Alumni Awards Ceremony\, leads a workshop in which dancers use their bodies to reveal tiny stories about themselves through scores and choreography from Mason’s current repertory. Mason is a choreographer and performance artist who combines a decade-long dance career with a deep love of drag to create work that comes straight from the gut\, wrapped in deliciously campy candy coating\, not to obscure the truth\, but to hyper-color it. \n\nEach Modern Lab session features a different guest artist teaching a master class and sections from their repertory. This panorama of the contemporary dance field is presented to broaden the students’ awareness of potential career possibilities.\n\nEach guest artist conducts a 30-minute technique class/warm-up and then teaches repertory that is performed by the class. In the final 15 minutes\, faculty coordinator Bill De Young conducts a Q & A with each artist\, discussing their career\; their recommendations for transitioning from student to professional\, and what they look for when they audition dancers for their projects.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Labor Economics
DESCRIPTION:Abstract:\nWe use new timestamp data from the two Securities Information Processors (SIPs) to examine SIP reporting latencies for quote and trade reports. Reporting latencies average 1.13 milliseconds for quotes and 22.84 milliseconds for trades. Despite these latencies\, liquidity-taking orders gain on average $0.0002 per share when priced at the SIP-reported national best bid or offer (NBBO) rather than the NBBO calculated using exchanges’ direct data feeds. Trading surrounding SIP-priced trades shows little evidence that fast traders initiate these liquidity-taking orders to pick-off stale quotes. These findings contradict claims that fast traders systematically exploit traders who transact at the SIP NBBO.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:PhonDi Discussion Group
DESCRIPTION:Nick Henricksen will speak on \"Consonant gemination in Andalusian Spanish: Production and perception.\"\n\nAbstract\nSpanish is often described as a language that lacks word-internal geminate consonants. This study explores an ongoing sound change in Andalusian Spanish whereby /ɾn/ and /ɾl/ sequences undergo gemination (i.e.\, [n:] and [l:]\, respectively)\, due to phonetic assimilation of clusters involving coronal sonorants. This change now creates a lexical contrast between non-geminate [n]/[l] and geminate [n:]/[l:] in pairs orthographically represented as pela ‘s/he peals’ - perla ‘pearl’\, cala ‘cove’ - Carla ‘Carla’\, and tono ‘tone’ - torno ‘window’\, among others. In this presentation we will present data from two production experiments and two perception experiments. For all four experiments\, we collected data from speakers of a geminating variety (from Andalusia\, Spain)\, as well as from speakers of a non-geminating variety (from Castile\, Spain).

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Gifts of Art presents Michigan Wonderland Gems & Jewels
DESCRIPTION:Betsy Lehndorff’s jewelry is influenced by her life in Hubbard Lake in northeastern Michigan. Using her stone cutting and silversmithing skills\, she takes on six subjects that impact her isolated world: water\, winter\, plants\, critters\, rocks and the heavens. Her work\, often representational and sometimes narrative\, challenges the idea of jewelry as a status symbol. Lehndorff was born and raised in Ann Arbor\, and lived in Colorado until 2012. She is a granddaughter of renowned architect Albert Kahn (Hill Auditorium and the “Old Main” U-M Hospital) and daughter of Dr. Edgar A. Kahn\, who headed the neurosurgery department at the U-M Hospital in the 1960s.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Energy & Environmental Economics
DESCRIPTION:Abstract:\nExposure to air pollution has adverse impacts on human health\, workplace productivity\, educational and a variety of behavioral outcomes. Motivated by research from medicine and psychology linking pollution to aggression\, we provide the first evidence of a causal link between short-run variation in ambient pollution and the commission of violent crime. Using the location of crimes and wind direction as a source of pollution variation\, we find that air pollution increases violent crime in both Chicago (by 2.2%) and the Los Angeles metro area (by 6.1%). Consistent with the literature on aggression and ambient pollution\, we find no effect on property crime. The results are robust to a wide variety of specifications and falsification tests. Back of the envelope calculations indicate that the cost of pollution-induced crime is comparable in magnitude to other outcomes studied in the literature and should be included in benefit-cost analysis of pollution abatement policies. Overall\, the results suggest that pollution may reduce welfare and affect behavior and decision making through an even wider set of channels than previously understood.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Applied Interdisciplinary Mathematics
DESCRIPTION:Among a set of competitors for a single common resource\, the best will simply exclude the others. Yet in nature we can see astounding diversity of competing species. Do close similarities in species' response to the local environment primarily explain their coexistence? Or is this diversity possible because of differences between species that stabilize their coexistence? And if so\, what particular differences between species are important in particular communities? Some ecological communities lend themselves to experimental manipulation to begin to answer these questions. Yet for many other communities\, such as tree species in forests\, the logistical hurdles to this approach are daunting. Faster progress could be made in ecology if insight into biodiversity maintenance mechanisms could be gained from patterns exhibited in local ecological communities\, such as how coexisting species are distributed in their ecological traits and relative abundance. Hurdles that we need to overcome to be able to gain such insight include: 1) further developing neutral theory\, a quantitative process-based null model of community pattern resulting when species similarities are what allow their coexistence\, and 2) better understanding what patterns to expect when species differences dominate instead\, particularly in the context of stochasticity and immigration. My research aims to overcome these hurdles\, to provide better tools for analyzing observed pattern. Speaker(s): Annette Ostling (Ecology and Evolutionary Biology\, University of Michigan)

DESCRIPTION:I plan to discuss how the location of complex zeros affects the computational complexity of partition functions. Partition functions are polynomials with positive integer coefficients enumerating various combinatorial structures (and typically originating in problems of statistical physics). This will be illustrated by the examples of the permanent of a matrix (\"dimer model\" in physics) and its higher dimensional versions (\"polymer model\" in physics)\, and\, time permitting\, the independence polynomial of a graph (\"hard core model\" in physics).

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:Smith Lecture: Threads of Maize and Blue
DESCRIPTION:The benefits of a University of Michigan education are documented\nwith numerous examples of relationships\, events\, and projects encountered during a career in the oil and gas industry.  Ultra -deep onshore and offshore fields in the United States were found and developed by teams of scientists using the latest in integrated discipline and computer technology.  International business opportunities were enhanced by working with Michigan alumni from the country under consideration for investment.\nThe values of integrity\, co-operation\, service\, team dynamics\, and leadership applied in one’s career and life are sharpened as part of a university education.  Lifelong impacts of a University of Michigan education are many and rewarding.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Biophysics Seminar: Elizabeth Gichana and Marcos Núñez\, Biophysics Ph.D. Candidates
DESCRIPTION:Elizabeth Gichana:\n\nTitle:  \"Investigating the influence of sequence of the folding mechanism of RNaseH using a structure based model\"\n\n Abstract: \nThere are two major sources of frustration in a protein folding – energetic and topological. Energy landscape theory posits that main-chain topology is the major determinant in the folding mechanism of a protein. What is less well understood is the role that sequence effects play. To gain insight into this challenging problem\, we utilize ancestral sequences reconstructed along mesophilic and thermophilic lineages of ribonuclease H (RNaseH) leading back to a common ancestor. This family of proteins share function and topology and have high sequence homology but differ in their biophysical properties. We investigate the role that variation in sequence over these evolutionary timescales alters the energy landscape of RNaseH to give rise to these differences by employing coarse-grained molecular dynamics simulations using a structure-based Go-like model to investigate folding mechanisms.\n \nand \n\nMarcos Núñez : \n\nTitle: Visualizing phase-like domains in B cell plasma membranes using super-resolution microscopy\n\nAbstract: Protein sorting based on liquid-ordered (Lo) or liquid-disordered (Ld) phase preference is readily observed in giant plasma membrane vesicles (GPMVs) at low temperatures but is not as easily detected in the intact cells from which they are derived. Here we utilize two-color super-resolution microscopy in combination with cross-correlation analysis to quantify the sorting of two minimal inner leaflet anchored-peptides proximal to clusters of cholera toxin B subunit (CTxB) in chemically fixed CH27 B cells. We find that the local density of a Lo-partitioning peptide is increased while the local density of an Ld-partitioning peptide is reduced in the vicinity of CTxB clusters when compared to the average density of peptides on the cell surface. This alongside other experimental results supports the hypothesis that intact cell plasma membranes can contain lipid domains which resemble Lo and Ld phases. In this talk\, I will discuss my efforts to make this measurement more quantitative by surveying different fluorescent probes and CTxB clustering conditions so that I can compare the magnitude of partitioning in response to different physical perturbations.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:Journal Club
DESCRIPTION:In the last few months\, there has a been a fair bit of discussion on Phonolist (an email newsletter/blog about all things phonological) about gender representation at conferences\, with a specific focus on presenters and question askers. Although this discussion is specifically about phonology conferences\, it speaks to a topic that is relevant in linguistics (and academia) more broadly. We'll read a few of the very short and interesting blog entries on this topic from Phonolist.\n\nSince these are short pieces\, I'm also suggesting that you look at the most recent report by the LSA about the State of Linguistics in Higher Ed. This report contains a lot of interesting information\, but particularly relevant for our meeting on Friday\, it contains information about the gender participation in the field. Some of the pages with the most relevant information on this topic include: 7\, 10\, 11\, 12\, 15.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Student AIM Seminar
DESCRIPTION:Principal Component Analysis (PCA) is a method for estimating a subspace given noisy samples. It is useful in a variety of problems ranging from dimensionality reduction to anomaly detection and the visualization of high dimensional data. PCA performs well in the presence of moderate noise and even with missing data\, but is also sensitive to outliers. PCA is also known to have a phase transition when noise is independent and identically distributed\; recovery of the subspace sharply declines at a threshold noise variance. Effective use of PCA requires a rigorous understanding of these behaviors. This paper provides a step towards an analysis of PCA for samples with heteroscedastic noise\, that is\, samples that have non-uniform noise variances and so are no longer identically distributed. In particular\, we provide a simple asymptotic prediction of the recovery of a one-dimensional subspace from noisy heteroscedastic samples. The prediction enables: a) easy and efficient calculation of the asymptotic performance\, and b) qualitative reasoning to understand how PCA is impacted by heteroscedasticity (such as outliers).

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Gifts of Art presents Avian Vessels: Mixed Media Sculpture
DESCRIPTION:Cincinnati based sculptor Karen Heyl has been professionally sculpting stone since 1984. She is best known for bas-relief limestone sculptures\, but in 2011 she developed an interest in sculpting clay using a similar relief carving technique. Out of this came an artistic exploration and refinement of birds using ceramic vessels as the starting point. Whimsical additions such as tails and beaks give each bird an individual personality. Each bird is perched on an individually carved limestone base to enhance the unique qualities that each bird displays. Heyl’s affinity for nature extends from her art to her love of gardening and the occasional golf game.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Gifts of Art presents Works by Belle Kogan: First Female Industrial Designer
DESCRIPTION:This exhibition presents industrially-produced art pottery pieces designed by Belle Kogan (1902–2000)\, for Red Wing Potteries in Red Wing\, Minnesota. Kogan is considered the first prominent female industrial designer in the United States\, a founder of the profession\, and one of the 20th century's most significant designers. Her design aesthetic was heavily influenced by the geometric and streamlined shapes of Art Deco. Belle Kogan Associates\, her New York–based studio\, was the first American female-led design firm. Her contracts with Red Wing Potteries produced over 400 different art pottery shapes from the late 1930s to the early 1960s\, as well as several dinnerware and kitchenware lines. Belle Kogan and her firm designed products not only in ceramics but also clocks and small appliances\, glassware\, and pieces in silver\, plastics\, wrought iron and wood.

SUMMARY:Conference / Symposium:Industrial Upgrading and Economic Growth in China
DESCRIPTION:This conference will examine China’s changing development model and the role of industrial upgrading in promoting new sources of growth and development. We will seek to understand (1) the global\, regional and national comparative and historical competitiveness contexts in which China’s industrial upgrading will take place\, and (2) new technologies\, the industrial ecosystems required for them to emerge and thrive\, and their business\, economic and social implications going forward. As history shows us\, successful industrial upgrading is not a purely technical\, market- and technology-driven process\, but also a social process grounded in particular local circumstances.  Industrial upgrading also involves deindustrialization\, with new technologies displacing the old\, hardware giving way to software\, production yielding to consumption\, and jobs being destroyed as others are created--processes that also need to be managed by governments and communities.\n\nKeynote presentations will be given by Justin Yifu Lin\, Lieberthal-Rogel Center for Chinese Studies Distinguished Visitor\, Professor at Peking University and Former Chief Economist of the World Bank and Shang-Jin Wei\, Chief Economist at the Asian Development Bank and Professor at Columbia University. \n\nThe Industrial Upgrading and Economic Growth in China conference is presented by Ross China Initiatives\, LSA Department of Economics\, and theLieberthal-Rogel Center for Chinese Studies\, and co-sponsored by the Gerald R. Ford School of Public Policy and Ross Executive Education.\n\nPlease contact ross-globalinitiatives@umich.edu for more information.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Sinking City\, Between Civilization and the Deep Blue Sea
DESCRIPTION:Jakarta\, Indonesia has a serious problem with flooding. The city is literally sinking while also experiencing climate change related sea-level rise. Add to that the yearly heavy rainfall the city sees from the Southeast Asian monsoon and a population that has swelled beyond ten million due to rapid urbanization\, and it’s easy to see why Jakarta’s infrastructure is experiencing significant strain. Jakarta isn’t an isolated example of this perfect storm. It represents the future difficulty that coastal cities all over the world are likely to face.\n\nUnderstanding that lessons learned in Jakarta can have a global impact\, University of Michigan alumus Frank Sedlar set out to help with flood mitigation in Jakarta. Frank earned his master of science degree from Michigan Engineering and also studied the Indonesian language while at the university. Photojournalist and filmmaker Marcin Szczepanski and writer Ben Logan from Michigan Engineering chronicled Frank’s experience while in Jakarta working on modern solutions to Jakarta’s growing problem.\n\nPlease join us for an opening reception on Friday\, October 21 at 5 PM at the International Institute Gallery. Refreshments will be served.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:The Florence Flood\, November 1966
DESCRIPTION:This exhibit focuses on the destruction of Florence during the flood on November 4\, 1966. Among the collections severely impacted by the muddy waters were those in the Biblioteca Nazionale Centrale di Firenze. Book conservators from the United States and Western Europe were called in to help with the recovery efforts. The exhibit features a British team\, headed by Peter Waters\, which created a washing-drying-mending-rebinding system to deal with tens of thousands of books damaged by the disaster.\n\nThe two most important outcomes of the tragedy are the professional training of library conservators and the establishment of disaster preparedness and response programs.\n\nLearn more and register for the symposium\, The Flood in Florence\, 1966: A Fifty-Year Retrospective\, happening November 3-4\, 2016. https://www.lib.umich.edu/flood-florence-1966-fifty-year-retrospective

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Symposium: Ambiguous Territory: Architecture\, Landscape\, and the Postnatural
DESCRIPTION:Free and open to the public\nAmbiguous Territory: Architecture\, Landscape\, and the Postnatural is a symposium and concurrent exhibition that situates contemporary discourses and practices of architecture and landscape within the context of the Postnatural\; the era of climate change\, the Anthropocene\, and altered ecologies. The symposium asks: In a time when humans have been fundamentally displaced from their presumed place of privilege\, philosophically as well as experientially\, should the disciplines of architecture and landscape architecture consider displacing themselves as well\, in order to establish new affiliations and avail new ways to approach contemporary questions of design in relation to the environment?\nBy bringing designers and scholars from these fields together the symposium and exhibition will highlight projects and ideas that are engaged with these issues from a variety of perspectives\, ranging from scale and experience to questions of matter. Participants will present research and work that use tactics of mediation to understand\, imagine\, interrupt\, and invent artifacts that exist at the large spatial and slow temporal scale of the Anthropocene.\nAmbiguous Territory will present design ideas and proposals from architects\, artists\, and landscape architects whose work challenges their disciplinary boundaries and long-held anthropocentric orientation and redefines the relationship between built and natural environments in an era of ecological anxiety.\nChairs:       \nKathy Velikov\, Associate Professor at the University of Michigan and principal of RVTR\nCathryn Dwyre\, Visiting Associate Professor at Pratt institute School of Architecture and partner at pneumastudio\nChris Perry\, Associate Professor at Rensselaer Architecture and partner at pneumastudio\nDavid Salomon\, Assistant Professor of Art History at Ithaca College.\nKeynotes:\nLiam Young\, urbanist\, designer and futurist\; founder of the futures think tank Tomorrows Thoughts Today (tomorrowsthoughtstoday.com)\; the ‘Unknown Fields Division’ (unknownfieldsdivision.com) at the Architectural Association in London\, and the ‘Fiction and Entertainment’ program at SciArc\nDavid Gissen\, author\, historian\, and Professor of Architecture and Visual and Critical Studies at the California College of the Arts and co-director of the Experimental History Project (http://davidgissen.org/)\nFor a full list of speakers and bios\, please visit the Ambiguous Territory symposium web page. \nAmbiguous Territory Symposium Schedule\nAll events in Taubman College Commons unless otherwise noted\nThursday October 5th\n5:00pm\nAmbiguous Territory Exhibition Reception\n(Taubman College Gallery)\n6:00pm\nKeynote Lecture: Liam Young\n(Art + Architecture Auditorium)\n \nFriday October 6th (all events occuring in The Commons)\n9:00am\nCoffee\n9:30am\nWelcome: Dean Jonathan Massey\nIntroductory Remarks: Associate Dean of Research and Creative Practice Geoffrey Thün\nSymposium Introduction: Kathy Velikov\n10:00am\nAtmospheric Mediations Panel\nIntroduction: Kathy Velikov\nSpeaker 1: Christopher Hight\nSpeaker 2: Lydia Kallipoliti\nSpeaker 3: Sean Lally\nRespondent: Meredith Miller\nRoundtable Discussion\n12:00pm\nLunch Break (lunch not provided)\n1:00pm\nBiologic Mediations Panel\nIntroduction: David Salomon\nSpeaker 1: Jennifer Peeples\nSpeaker 2: Linsdey french\nSpeaker 3: Ricardo de Ostos\nRespondent: Ellie Abrons\nRoundtable Discussion\n3:00pm\nCoffee Break\n3:30pm\nGeologic Mediations Panel\nIntroduction: Cathryn Dwyre and Chris Perry\nSpeaker 1: Alessandra Ponte\nSpeaker 2: Bradley Cantrell\nSpeaker 3: Rania Ghosn and El Hadi Jazairy\nRespondent: Mark Lindquist\nRoundtable Discussion\n5:30pm\nBreak\n6:00pm\nKeynote Lecture: David Gissen\nAmbiguous Territory Exhibition \nSeptember 27th – October 18th 2017\nUniversity of Michigan Taubman College Gallery\nDecember 2018 – January 2019\nPratt Manhattan Gallery\, New York

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Foreshadowing - Endangered and Threatened Plant Species
DESCRIPTION:A unique exhibit of botanical portraits that illuminates native and invasive plant species in a different light. Local artist and photographer Jane Kramer spent weeks exploring Michigan’s nature preserves and botanical gardens---including Matthaei---taking pictures of the shadows cast by native plant species. The shadow images were then transferred to handmade paper created from invasive plant species. For Kramer the shadows speak to the fragility of threatened plants and their struggle to survive in a changing environment that includes invasive species. The coupling of shadow and paper underscores the complex relationship between invasive and endangered plant species. Free admission. Open Wednesdays until 8 pm.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Catie Newell: Overnight
DESCRIPTION:Detroit-based architect Catie Newell’s work is focused on the tactile\, sensory qualities of the materials we use to build things: their texture\, density\, or malleability. Her investigations combine architectural research\, material studies\, and art experiments\, a strategy she began as a student that now defines her career.\n\nThe most important element in her formal vocabulary is light\, not only as a “material” in its own right\, but also as a condition. Varying in strength\, form\, and duration\, light constructs architecture as a situational experience rather than a fixed space. Newell’s fascination with light is a fascination with darkness. Through urban interventions\, installations\, and photographs\, she investigates how darkness creates alternate environments\, with unseen geographies\, untold histories\, and secret identities.\n\nNewell\, assistant professor of architecture at U-M Taubman College of Architecture and Urban Planning\, is a recent recipient of the Rome Prize in architecture. Overnight includes photographs from her Rome project as well as new photography from the series Nightly\, featuring nighttime images of Detroit streetscapes and interiors\, alongside a site-specific sculptural installation commissioned by the Museum.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Japanese Prints of Kabuki Theater from the Collection of the University of Michigan Museum of Art
DESCRIPTION:Kabuki actors were superstars in eighteenth- and nineteenth-century Japan. They were admired by passionate fans with an insatiable appetite for images of them\, fed by a publishing industry that mass-produced colorful woodblock prints of actors on stage that could be cheaply purchased as souvenirs of or substitutes for a theater experience. Japanese Prints of Kabuki Theater from the Collection of the University of Michigan Museum of Art presents a selection of these dramatic prints that connected fans to their idols\, including off- or backstage portrayals that satisfied fans’ voyeuristic curiosity about their favorite actors’ lives\, fantasy scenes of actors in unlikely groupings\, and even death portraits of especially famous actors. This introduction to the visual culture surrounding kabuki theater includes prints by major artists such as Utagawa Toyokuni (1769–1825)\, Utagawa Kunisada (1786–1865)\, Utagawa Kuniyoshi (1797–1861)\, and Toyohara Kunichika (1835–1900).\n\nLead support for this exhibition is provided by the University of Michigan Office of the Provost\, the National Endowment for the Arts\, the William T. and Dora G. Hunter Endowment\, AISIN\, the E. Rhodes and Leona B. Carpenter Foundation\, and the University of Michigan Center for Japanese Studies. Additional generous support is provided by the Japan Foundation and the University of Michigan Institute for Research on Women and Gender.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Manuel Álvarez Bravo: Mexico’s Poet of Light
DESCRIPTION:Manuel Álvarez Bravo spent nearly his entire career photographing his native Mexico. His style drew upon numerous international influences\, ranging from the Modernism of Edward Weston and Tina Modotti\, whom he met when they spent time in Mexico in the 1920s\, to the formally exquisite photojournalism of Henri Cartier-Bresson and Walker Evans\, whose work he knew in New York\, and the Surrealism of André Breton\, who visited Mexico around 1940.\n\nAlthough not strictly Surrealist\, many of Álvarez Bravo’s works manifest a similarly fantastical mood\; one of the artist’s most arresting qualities is his ability to imbue scenes of everyday life with an otherworldly\, metaphysical power. The twenty-three photographs in the exhibition\, drawn from UMMA’s collections\, show the artist’s ability to synthesize a personal—even nationalistic—style that merged the motifs of Mexican religious and indigenous works and plant forms (such as agave leaves) with a Modernist approach to image making. Throughout\, the presence of light as a wondrous metaphor and revealer of life animates even the emptiest and most silent of Álvarez Bravo’s scenes.\n\n**Special hours Sundays: 12–5pm\, CLOSED Mondays

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Traces: Reconstructing the History of a Chokwe Mask
DESCRIPTION:The exhibition Traces focuses on one artwork from the Museum's African holdings: a Chokwe mask that was collected in 1905 near the Angolan city of Dundo by the German explorer Leo Frobenius. Its presence at UMMA today—almost 7\,500 miles away from the context in which it was originally created\, used\, and valued—is the result of a long and tumultuous journey\, spanning a hundred years\, three continents\, and numerous people whose lives are forever connected to the artifact that passed through their hands.\nTraces tells the stories of some of these individuals as it reconstructs the “biography” of the mask. Drawing on the Museum’s African art collection and complemented with national loans\, the exhibition is informed by research that exposes the mask’s many layers and restores some of its historical complexity. Visitors will be able to look closely\, and in great detail\, at this intriguing artwork and its fascinating story.\nLead support for this exhibition is provided by the James and Vivian Curtis Endowment. Additional generous support is provided by the University of Michigan Center for the Education of Women's Frances and Sydney Lewis Visiting Leaders Fund and African Studies Center.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Gifts of Art presents Michigan Wonderland Gems & Jewels
DESCRIPTION:Betsy Lehndorff’s jewelry is influenced by her life in Hubbard Lake in northeastern Michigan. Using her stone cutting and silversmithing skills\, she takes on six subjects that impact her isolated world: water\, winter\, plants\, critters\, rocks and the heavens. Her work\, often representational and sometimes narrative\, challenges the idea of jewelry as a status symbol. Lehndorff was born and raised in Ann Arbor\, and lived in Colorado until 2012. She is a granddaughter of renowned architect Albert Kahn (Hill Auditorium and the “Old Main” U-M Hospital) and daughter of Dr. Edgar A. Kahn\, who headed the neurosurgery department at the U-M Hospital in the 1960s.

DESCRIPTION:Speaking or singing\, the voice of Joshua Davis is a disarming instrument: weathered and warm\, as capable of conjuring confessional intimacy on a global stage as it is of making a small room\, well off the beaten path\, resonate with startling urgency and power. Couple it with an earnest poetic sensibility\, a boundless work ethic\, and an uncanny gift for connecting with audiences spanning generations\, and it’s no wonder that Davis is now poised at the brink of the sort of widespread recognition that typically passes right over such a humble troubadour.
