SUMMARY:Exhibition:Gifts of Art presents Ann Arbor Street Paintings: Oil on Panel
DESCRIPTION:Carlye Crisler\, a well known Ann Arbor artist of en plein air (outdoor) painting\, is originally from the Bucktown district of Chicago. Her goal is to paint an environment or neighborhood by showing activities\, people and lighting at a particular time of day\, capturing an extended sense of place. In this collection of en plein air oil paintings\, Crisler has taken on complicated places with many textures and divisions of space. She embraces ambiguity with shapes of buildings broken by shadow and parts of them hidden by other things barely determined. In addition to a painter of urban landscapes\, Crisler also is a costumer\, figurative portrait painter and metal sculptor.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Gifts of Art presents Art & Healing: American Indian Textiles & Beads
DESCRIPTION:Suzanne L. Cross\, Ph.D.\, Associate Professor Emeritus\, Michigan State University and member of the Saginaw Chippewa Indian Tribe\, is a shawl maker and beadwork artist. She created this body of work to increase awareness and emphasize cardiac health for American Indian women by informing\, supporting\, and encouraging self-care and the value of changing life ways.

Now-a-day traditional female dancers complete their regalia by carrying the shawl over their left arm which is closest to the heart\, and the fringe sways to the heartbeat rhythm of the drum.

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:Constructing Gender
DESCRIPTION:Ask U-M students\, alumni\, or fans what symbolizes the University of Michigan\, and you’ll likely hear the Big House\, the Diag\, along with the Michigan Union and the Michigan League. Since they officially opened in 1919 and 1929\, respectively\, the Union and League have been destinations for generations of Wolverines yet few know the rich history of the buildings’ origins or about the architects who brought them both to life: brothers and U-M alums Irving K. and Allen Pond.\n\nThe exhibition\, organized in celebration of the University of Michigan’s bicentennial in 2017\, illuminates the architecture and bustling student life of these iconic buildings using original drawings\, renderings\, photographs\, color studies\, and even dance cards from the Bentley Historical Library\, which serves as the University of Michigan archives. These fascinating documents reveal how the buildings were conceived\, constructed\, and first occupied by students and alumni. Guest curated by Nancy Bartlett of the Bentley Historical Library\, the exhibition reveals how the Ponds meticulously conceived and constructed the two clubs—one for men\, one for women—by weaving ideas about gender and society into the very fabric of the buildings themselves.\n\nLead support for this exhibition is provided by the Herbert W. and Susan L. Johe Endowment.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Ernestine Ruben at Willow Run
DESCRIPTION:In 2013\, artist Ernestine Ruben (BSDEs ’53) photographed the once-famed industrial complex Willow Run in Washtenaw County\, Michigan. Designed by her grandfather\, Detroit architect Albert Kahn\, for the Ford Motor Company\, Willow Run was an exemplar of American defense manufacturing because of its efficient mass-production of B-24 Liberators during World War II.\n\nFor this exhibition\, Ruben overlaid interior views of the now-dormant factory with imagined glimpses into her body’s interior landscape. The resulting compositions seem to breathe energy and light into the stagnant and cavernous spaces of Willow Run and suggest a longing for a productive existence undeterred by mortality for both Willow Run and the artist. Her grandfather’s role in the history of the site underscores Ruben’s personal connection.\n\nThe exhibition presents Ruben’s photographs of Willow Run in UMMA’s Photography Gallery and an original film—co-created by Ruben and video artist Seth Bernstein and featuring an original score by award-winning composer Stephen Hartke—in the Museum’s Forum.\n\nLead support for Ernestine Ruben at Willow Run: Mobilizing Memory is provided by the University of Michigan Office of the Provost and the Herbert W. and Susan L. Johe Endowment.\n\n\n\nLead support for Victors for the Arts: Michigan's Alumni Collectors is provided by the University of Michigan Office of the Provost\, the University of Michigan Health System\, the University of Michigan Office of the President\, the Michigan Council for Arts and Cultural Affairs and the National Endowment for the Arts\, and the University of Michigan Bicentennial Office.

DESCRIPTION:Moving Image: Landscape explores traditional notions of landscape through four very different time-based works by artists Jim Campbell\, Antti Laitinen\, Joanie Lemercier\, and Rick Silva.\n\nCampbell’s recent body of work\, including Seal Rock\, presents pixilated images of landscapes created with grids of LEDs. The low-resolution LEDs create a tension between representation and abstraction\, provoking viewers to interpret visual information on their own. In the three-channel video It’s My Island Laitinen builds his own island in the Baltic Sea by dragging two hundred sand bags into the water over a period of three months. The work explores ideas of nationality\, citizenship\, and identity as the artist creates his own single-citizen micro-nation. Lemercier’s computer-generated print Landforms uses patterns of black dots and projected light to create the illusion of three-dimensionality and movement when seen from a distance. The effects are more realistic than a still image\, but still unsettlingly artificial. Silva’s Render Garden explores the digitized landscape\, including remix and glitch aesthetics\, through software that endlessly generates new plant combinations.\n\nThroughout the next year UMMA will present a series of exhibitions drawn from the Borusan Contemporary Art Collection in Istanbul. The Borusan’s thirty-year-old collection includes significant works across a variety of genres\, and since 2011 it has focused on media arts. The works exhibited here address formal concerns such as abstraction and color\, and conceptual topics such as identity or ecological issues\; many represent traditional categories such as portraiture and landscape that find new resonance when explored through the strategies of dynamic technology.\nLead support for this exhibition is provided by the Susan and Richard Gutow Fund\,\nthe Herbert W. and Susan L. Johe Endowment\, and the University of Michigan Institute for the Humanities and Penny W. Stamps School of Art and Design.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Protecting Wisdom: Tibetan Book Covers from the MacLean Collection
DESCRIPTION:Protecting Wisdom: Tibetan Book Covers from the MacLean Collection is the first major exhibition to examine the subject of Tibetan book covers. For Tibetan Buddhists\, books are a divine presence in which the Buddha lives and reveals himself\, and they are venerated and handled with the utmost respect. The exhibition features 33 book covers dating from the eleventh to the eighteenth century that represent the glorious iconographic array and non-figural decoration typical of these sacred items. The majority of covers in the exhibition are Tibetan Buddhist\, but the exhibition also includes a rare Bon-religion cover and two covers from Mongolia\, as well as an important pair of covers produced circa 1411 for the Chinese Ming emperor Yongle. Protecting Wisdom presents a stunning visual display that illuminates a virtually unknown type of art\, one that will charm and intrigue both those familiar and unfamiliar with Tibetan art.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:The Aesthetic Movement
DESCRIPTION:Pictorialism was the first truly international photography movement\, and its practitioners\, among them Alfred Stieglitz\, Edward Steichen and Gertrude Käsebier\, sought to position photography as a legitimate aesthetic art form. They favored soft-focus images that drew upon the conventions of important artists and movements of the late nineteenth and early twentieth centuries—the influence of the Pre-Raphaelites\, James McNeill Whistler\, Japonisme\, and Art Nouveau are readily seen in the images on view in this exhibition.\n\nIn 1902 Alfred Stieglitz and other Pictorialist photographers founded the Photo-Secession in New York\, with Camera Work as the flagship periodical that published images by the group. Their poetic compositions drawn from contemporary life\, combined with the use of expensive and labor-intensive printing materials such as platinum and gum bichromate\, established these photographs as complex and nuanced works of high artistic quality. The exhibition features work by the principal Pictorialists\, including Stieglitz\, Steichen\, Käsebier\, Clarence White\, Paul Strand\, and Alvin Langdon Coburn.\n\nLead support for this exhibition is provided by the Herbert W. and Susan L. Johe Endowment.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Victors for Art: Michigan's Alumni Collectors–Part I: Figuration
DESCRIPTION:Commemorating the University of Michigan’s 2017 Bicentennial\, Victors for Art: Michigan’s Alumni Collectors celebrates the deep impact of Michigan alumni in the global art world. This two-part exhibition (Part I: Figuration followed by Part II: Abstraction on view July 1– October 29) presents works collected by a diverse group of alumni that represent the breadth of the University and over seventy years of graduating classes. The works themselves are equally diverse\, ranging from ancient sculptures to contemporary multimedia works. Part I: Figuration features works by Henri Matisse\, Elizabeth Louise Vigée Le Brun\, Mark Tansey\, and Mickalene Thomas\, among others\, and allows visitors to explore the variety of artistic responses and purposes encompassed by the term “figuration”. It also offers an unprecedented opportunity to view art that may have never been publicly displayed otherwise—and most certainly\, not all together. For visitors\, and especially for future Michigan alumni\, Victors for Art illuminates the shared passion for art fostered by the Michigan experience.\n\nThis exhibition was organized by Joseph Rosa\, Guest Curator\, in collaboration with Laura De Becker\, Helmut & Candis Stern Associate Curator of African Art\, Jennifer Friess\, Assistant Curator of Photography\, Lehti Mairike Keelman\, Assistant Curator of Western Art\, and Natsu Oyobe\, Curator of Asian Art.\n\nLead support for Victors for the Arts: Michigan's Alumni Collectors is provided by the University of Michigan Office of the Provost\, the University of Michigan Health System\, the University of Michigan Office of the President\, the Michigan Council for Arts and Cultural Affairs and the National Endowment for the Arts\, and the University of Michigan Bicentennial Office.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Banner Moments: The National Anthem in American Life
DESCRIPTION:The new Ford Presidential Library lobby exhibit\, curated by University of Michigan musicologist Mark Clague\, illustrates through interpretive panels\, historical documents and photographs\, the cultural 200-year history of “The Star-Spangled Banner” (1814–2014). The tale that emerges demonstrates the power of music and poetry to spark the social imagination and thus create a sense of shared community.\n\nInspired by the successful defense of Baltimore\, Maryland from British attack in September 1814\, lawyer and amateur poet Francis Scott Key penned his now famous lyric. Rather than extraordinary\, Key’s creative impulse was typical of early America’s broadside ballad tradition in which new words were written to fit well known tunes. The result\, however\, was far from everyday—Key could not have predicted that his song would survive the moment\, yet become his nation’s singular anthem.\n\nFollow the “The Star-Spangled Banner” from the moments leading up to September 14\, 1814 through the present day and explore the social history of our national song.\nMarch 2017 to September 2017 \n\nMonday - Friday. 8:45 am - 4:45 pm\nClosed all Federal holidays.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Another Country
DESCRIPTION:The scenes in Another Country emerge from daily images of conflict and uprising. Discarded shoes\, tarps and handmade signs that mark the post-industrial landscape become part roadside memorial and part doomsday prophecy. These temporary sculptures - set against the backdrop of environmental decline - evoke a cautionary tale of hazmat crews and oil soaked shorelines. \n\nIf there is a place for both apathy and active resistance in the way forward to a better future\, Another Country carries the tension that’s in-between. Inspired by the visual resistance of liberation parties\, past and present\, it urges us to remember why we fight.\n\nShanna Merola is an artist\, activist\, and documentary photographer. Working for civil rights attorneys\, she photographs first amendment activity at protests and facilitates workshops on best practices during police encounters. Over the past five years she has been a human rights observer for social justice movements across the country - from the deeply embattled struggle over water rights in Detroit and Flint\, Michigan - to the frontlines of uprisings in Ferguson\, MO and Standing Rock\, ND. Her collages and constructed landscapes are informed by these rallies - from direct actions against fracking companies to the privatization of water both globally and locally. She is currently working on a collaborative production of Know Your Rights Theatre\, inspired by the politically radical puppet troupes of the 1960’s.\n\nMerola received an MFA in Photography from Cranbrook Academy of Art and a BFA in Photo and Film from Virginia Commonwealth University. She lives and works in Detroit\, Michigan.

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:Chicana Fotos: Nancy De Los Santos
DESCRIPTION:Exhibition Dates: Friday\, February 17 - April 14\, 2017\nOpening Reception: Friday\, February 17\, 2017 from 4 - 7 pm\, featuring a performance by Ballet Folklórico De Detroit at 6 pm.\nGallery Talk by Nancy De Los Santos and exhibition curator Maria Cotera: Friday\, February 17\, 2017 at 12 pm\, Walter P. Reuther Library Woodcock Conference Room\nWalter P. Reuther Library at Wayne State University\n5401 Cass Ave\, Detroit\, MI 48202\n\nBorn and raised in Chicago by Mexican-American parents\, Nancy De Los Santos is an accomplished filmmaker and proud “Chicana from Chicago” who has dedicated her life and career to rewriting and redefining the image of Latina/os in the mainstream media. Among her most celebrated works are as Co-Writer and Co-Producer of The Bronze Screen: 100 Years of the Latin Image in Hollywood Cinema\, with Susan Racho and Alberto Dominguez\, and as Associate Producer on the feature film Selena.\n\nIn Chicana Fotos\, an exhibit of evocative photographs taken in the 1970s\, we meet a very different Nancy: a woman armed with a camera\, capturing historic events in the struggles for social justice of the time. Nancy’s photographs of Chicano Movement marches and rallies\, farmworker mobilizations in Chicago and Texas\, and Latina organizing in the Midwest and internationally offer a priceless documentary view of Latina/o politics in the 1970s. Her more intimate pictures of everyday Latina/o life capture what it was like to live through a period of radical social transformation. The exhibit includes rare photographs of UFW organizing activities in Chicago\, the Texas Farmworker Pilgrimage of 1977\, and the first ever International Women’s Year Conference in Mexico City in 1975. These images are supplemented by never before exhibited documents from the Walter P. Reuther UFW Collection.\n\nChicana Fotos was curated by University of Michigan professor Maria Cotera (with assistance from Pau Nava) and designed by students and faculty of the UM Stamps School of Art & Design. Stamps School faculty Hannah Smotrich and Katie Rubin co-taught the collaborative\, interdisciplinary Exhibition Design class with students Ian Crowley\, Rachel Dawson\, Emilie Farrugia\, Kelsi Franzino\, Andrew Han\, Jack Hyland\, Maggie Lemak\, Megan Lewin-Smith\, Katie Mongoven\, Olivia Moore\, Pau Nava\, and Sarah Wolf.\n\nChicana Fotos is a collaboration between the El Museo del Norte\, the Chicana por mi Raza Digital Archive\, the Stamps School of Art & Design and the Walter P. Reuther Library at Wayne State University.\n\nThe Walter P. Reuther Library of Labor and Urban Affairs at Wayne State University is the largest labor archive in North America. In addition to internationally significant collections on the history of the North American labor movement\, the Reuther Library holds the official records of Wayne State University\, as well as extensive records documenting urban affairs\, civic life\, civil rights\, ethnic and religious organizations\, and community development across Southeast Michigan.\n\nChicana Fotos was made possible through the generous financial support of the University of Michigan’s Third Century Initiative and the Stamps School of Art & Design. Gallery talk sponsored by the Center for Latina/o and Latin American Studies\, Wayne State University\, and the University of Michigan’s Third Century Initiative.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Constructing Gender
DESCRIPTION:Ask U-M students\, alumni\, or fans what symbolizes the University of Michigan\, and you’ll likely hear the Big House\, the Diag\, along with the Michigan Union and the Michigan League. Since they officially opened in 1919 and 1929\, respectively\, the Union and League have been destinations for generations of Wolverines yet few know the rich history of the buildings’ origins or about the architects who brought them both to life: brothers and U-M alums Irving K. and Allen Pond.\n\nThe exhibition\, organized in celebration of the University of Michigan’s bicentennial in 2017\, illuminates the architecture and bustling student life of these iconic buildings using original drawings\, renderings\, photographs\, color studies\, and even dance cards from the Bentley Historical Library\, which serves as the University of Michigan archives. These fascinating documents reveal how the buildings were conceived\, constructed\, and first occupied by students and alumni. Guest curated by Nancy Bartlett of the Bentley Historical Library\, the exhibition reveals how the Ponds meticulously conceived and constructed the two clubs—one for men\, one for women—by weaving ideas about gender and society into the very fabric of the buildings themselves.\n\nLead support for this exhibition is provided by the Herbert W. and Susan L. Johe Endowment.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Ernestine Ruben at Willow Run
DESCRIPTION:In 2013\, artist Ernestine Ruben (BSDEs ’53) photographed the once-famed industrial complex Willow Run in Washtenaw County\, Michigan. Designed by her grandfather\, Detroit architect Albert Kahn\, for the Ford Motor Company\, Willow Run was an exemplar of American defense manufacturing because of its efficient mass-production of B-24 Liberators during World War II.\n\nFor this exhibition\, Ruben overlaid interior views of the now-dormant factory with imagined glimpses into her body’s interior landscape. The resulting compositions seem to breathe energy and light into the stagnant and cavernous spaces of Willow Run and suggest a longing for a productive existence undeterred by mortality for both Willow Run and the artist. Her grandfather’s role in the history of the site underscores Ruben’s personal connection.\n\nThe exhibition presents Ruben’s photographs of Willow Run in UMMA’s Photography Gallery and an original film—co-created by Ruben and video artist Seth Bernstein and featuring an original score by award-winning composer Stephen Hartke—in the Museum’s Forum.\n\nLead support for Ernestine Ruben at Willow Run: Mobilizing Memory is provided by the University of Michigan Office of the Provost and the Herbert W. and Susan L.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:GOIN’ NORTH: BLACK DETROIT  AND THE  GREAT MIGRATION\,  1910-1930
DESCRIPTION:Summary: \nExhibit of photographs and documents produced by the Michigan Historical Collections in Commemoration of Martin Luther King\, Jr. Day at the University of Michigan\, published 1991.\nBLACK DETROIT AND THE GREAT MIGRATION\n\nSince Norf is up\,\nAn’ Souf is down\,\nAn’ Hebben is up\,\nI’m upward boun’.*\nThey came to Detroit by the thousands from Georgia\, Alabama\, Tennessee\, South Caroline and they stayed. They were part of what historians characterize as a watershed in African American History-the Great Migration. From 1910 to 1930\, hundreds of thousands of Blacks headed North\, leaving the South because of economic hardship\, poor educational opportunities\, and enticed by the lure of better jobs in northern industries and more freedom. Cites in the industrial Northeast and Midwest experienced astounding increases in their Black populations\, but few more so that Detroit\, its institutions and its cultures\, took shape and developed. The problems encountered by the migrants in the form of discrimination and racial animosity were problems with which the city would grapple throughout the decades to follow.\n\nThis exhibit focused on the two major concerns of the migrants\, housing and jobs\, and on the attempts made by various organizations in adjusting to life in Detroit. It is primarily compiled from the holding s of the University of Michigan’s Bentley Historical Library\, particularly the rich collection of the Detroit Urban League. It is also drawn from the Collections of the Detroit Public Library\, the Walter Reuther Collection of the Detroit Public Library\, the Walter Reuther Collection of Labor History and Urban Affairs (Wayne State University)\, the Collections of the Henry Ford Museum and Greenfield Village\, the Detroit News\, and tge Second Baptist Church of Detroit\, Michigan. The exhibit was prepared by Christine Weideman and Karen Jania\, staff members of the Bentley Historical Library.\n\n*From the poem\, “Northboun’” by Lucy Ariel Williams\, printed in Opportunity “: a Journal of Negro Life\, June 1926. The journal was a publication of the National Urban League.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Moving Image: Landscape
DESCRIPTION:Moving Image: Landscape explores traditional notions of landscape through four very different time-based works by artists Jim Campbell\, Antti Laitinen\, Joanie Lemercier\, and Rick Silva.\n\nCampbell’s recent body of work\, including Seal Rock\, presents pixilated images of landscapes created with grids of LEDs. The low-resolution LEDs create a tension between representation and abstraction\, provoking viewers to interpret visual information on their own. In the three-channel video It’s My Island Laitinen builds his own island in the Baltic Sea by dragging two hundred sand bags into the water over a period of three months. The work explores ideas of nationality\, citizenship\, and identity as the artist creates his own single-citizen micro-nation. Lemercier’s computer-generated print Landforms uses patterns of black dots and projected light to create the illusion of three-dimensionality and movement when seen from a distance. The effects are more realistic than a still image\, but still unsettlingly artificial. Silva’s Render Garden explores the digitized landscape\, including remix and glitch aesthetics\, through software that endlessly generates new plant combinations.\n\nThroughout the next year UMMA will present a series of exhibitions drawn from the Borusan Contemporary Art Collection in Istanbul. The Borusan’s thirty-year-old collection includes significant works across a variety of genres\, and since 2011 it has focused on media arts. The works exhibited here address formal concerns such as abstraction and color\, and conceptual topics such as identity or ecological issues\; many represent traditional categories such as portraiture and landscape that find new resonance when explored through the strategies of dynamic technology.\nLead support for this exhibition is provided by the Susan and Richard Gutow Fund\,\nthe Herbert W. and Susan L. Johe Endowment\, and the University of Michigan Institute for the Humanities and Penny W. Stamps School of Art and Design.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Protecting Wisdom: Tibetan Book Covers from the MacLean Collection
DESCRIPTION:Protecting Wisdom: Tibetan Book Covers from the MacLean Collection is the first major exhibition to examine the subject of Tibetan book covers. For Tibetan Buddhists\, books are a divine presence in which the Buddha lives and reveals himself\, and they are venerated and handled with the utmost respect. The exhibition features 33 book covers dating from the eleventh to the eighteenth century that represent the glorious iconographic array and non-figural decoration typical of these sacred items. The majority of covers in the exhibition are Tibetan Buddhist\, but the exhibition also includes a rare Bon-religion cover and two covers from Mongolia\, as well as an important pair of covers produced circa 1411 for the Chinese Ming emperor Yongle. Protecting Wisdom presents a stunning visual display that illuminates a virtually unknown type of art\, one that will charm and intrigue both those familiar and unfamiliar with Tibetan art.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Victors for Art: Michigan's Alumni Collectors–Part I: Figuration
DESCRIPTION:Commemorating the University of Michigan’s 2017 Bicentennial\, Victors for Art: Michigan’s Alumni Collectors celebrates the deep impact of Michigan alumni in the global art world. This two-part exhibition (Part I: Figuration followed by Part II: Abstraction on view July 1– October 29) presents works collected by a diverse group of alumni that represent the breadth of the University and over seventy years of graduating classes. The works themselves are equally diverse\, ranging from ancient sculptures to contemporary multimedia works. Part I: Figuration features works by Henri Matisse\, Elizabeth Louise Vigée Le Brun\, Mark Tansey\, and Mickalene Thomas\, among others\, and allows visitors to explore the variety of artistic responses and purposes encompassed by the term “figuration”. It also offers an unprecedented opportunity to view art that may have never been publicly displayed otherwise—and most certainly\, not all together. For visitors\, and especially for future Michigan alumni\, Victors for Art illuminates the shared passion for art fostered by the Michigan experience.\n\nThis exhibition was organized by Joseph Rosa\, Guest Curator\, in collaboration with Laura De Becker\, Helmut & Candis Stern Associate Curator of African Art\, Jennifer Friess\, Assistant Curator of Photography\, Lehti Mairike Keelman\, Assistant Curator of Western Art\, and Natsu Oyobe\, Curator of Asian Art.\n\nLead support for Victors for the Arts: Michigan's Alumni Collectors is provided by the University of Michigan Office of the Provost\, the University of Michigan Health System\, the University of Michigan Office of the President\, the Michigan Council for Arts and Cultural Affairs and the National Endowment for the Arts\, and the University of Michigan Bicentennial Office.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Social\, Behavioral & Experimental Economics (SBEE): The boy crisis: Experimental evidence on the acceptance of males falling behind
DESCRIPTION:Abstract:\nIt is well established that there is a gender bias in top-level jobs where males dominate. However\, there is also an increasing worry of a gender bias in the lower tale of education and labor market outcomes\, often termed the 'boy crisis'. What can explain these patterns? In this project\, we study\nexperimentally whether people consider it more acceptable when males fall behind than when females do\, using a novel design implemented on a representative sample of Americans. The participants make distributive choices involving males and females and we randomly manipulate the gender composition in the distributive situations. We show that people find it more acceptable when males fall behind than when females do when outcomes reflect merit. We provide evidence showing that this result is not driven by a general preference for females\, but is specific to how people redistribute in merit environments where males perform worse than females. We argue that this finding may shed light on the gender discrimination against males in different parts of society\,\non the 'boy crisis' and why males increasingly lag behind females in merit settings such as in education and in the lower tale of the labor market.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Complex Analysis\, Dynamics and Geometry
DESCRIPTION:It is known in many cases that the dynamics of a rational self-map of the complex plane is broadly governed by two numerical invariants\, the first and second dynamical degrees of the map.  The case when the degrees are equal\, however\, is fairly unexamined.  Here I will discuss some recent work with Roland Roeder and Han Liu about precisely this situation.  The aim is to give a picture of the dynamics of a plan rational map with equal degrees up to generic perturbation by linear maps. Speaker(s): Jeff Diller (University of Notre Dame)

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:Conflict & Peace Initiative Round Table. Xenophobia in the Age of Trump: The Roots\, Context\, and Remedies
DESCRIPTION:This roundtable discussion will look at the rise of xenophobia in the United States in a global and historical context. Questions to be explored include: What is xenophobia? Is it something everyone is predisposed to? What are the origins of the current strands of xenophobia? How is xenophobia in the US similar to and different from xenophobia in other parts of the world? What stops xenophobia? What promotes it? \n\nA Q&A with the audience will follow. \n\nPanelists:\n\nModerator: Michelle Bellino (School of Education)\n\nAnne Berg (History)\nDr. Berg’s research explores the origins of xenophobia\, with a particular emphasis on the social and political conditions that facilitated the rise of Nazism. A historian of modern Germany and Europe\, she is completing the manuscript of her first book Urban Legends: Cinema and the Making of the Nazi City.\n\nFatma Muge Gocek (Department of Sociology)\nProfessor Göçek’s research focuses on the comparative global analysis of history\, politics and gender— including the impact of nationalism and collective violence on minorities. \n\nVince Hutchings (Department of Political Science)\nProfessor Hutchings’s research examines ethnic and race-based hostility in the United States. His current project looks at how political campaign communications can prime voters’ racial attitudes and affect their political decisions. \n\nThis event will be livestreamed beginning at 4:00pm on March 13: bit.ly/2muyCNp\n\nThe International Institute and the University of Michigan are deeply opposed to all forms of hatred.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Geometry & Physics
DESCRIPTION:Formulas for the integrals of top Segre classes of tautological bundles over the Hilbert scheme of points of surfaces were conjectured in closed form by Lehn in 1999. I will explain a proof of this conjecture for K-trivial surfaces. Key to the argument are a set of recursions obtained by equivariant localization of the virtual class of a suitable Quot scheme. The recursions determining the Segre integrals fit into a much wider theory aimed at the study of tautological classes over the moduli space of K3 surfaces. This is based on joint work with Alina Marian and Rahul Pandharipande. Speaker(s): Dragos Oprea (UCSD)

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:HEP-Astro Seminar | Nucleosynthesis and Neutrinos Near Newly Formed Compact Objects
DESCRIPTION:The origin of the r-process elements remains the biggest unsolved question in our understanding of chemical evolution in the Milky Way. The most likely astrophysical sites for the formation of these nuclei involve dynamical events in the lives of neutron stars: the inner most regions of massive stars during core collapse supernovae and the merger of a neutron star and another compact object. In both of these environments\, nuclear physics plays a paramount role in determining both the evolution of the dense object itself\, the properties of neutrinos that are emitted\, and what nuclei are synthesized in material that is ejected from the system. In this talk\, I will discuss neutrino emission and nucleosynthesis in core collapse supernovae and in neutron star mergers\, and some of the theoretical uncertainties that exist in these scenarios.. Astrophysical observables that may give us a direct window into the formation of the r-process elements and the properties of dense matter will also be examined.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Integrable Systems and Random Matrix Theory
DESCRIPTION:How many alternating sign matrices are there? This question generated considerable interest in the early 1980s displaying deep connections to enumerative combinatorics of plane partitions. We shall review the story of this connection (following closely D. Bressoud's excellent book) which ultimately lead to the tour de force answer given by Zeilberger in 1996. In part II of this lecture we focus on Kuperberg's approach using statistical mechanics. Speaker(s): Thomas Bothner (University of Michigan)

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:Money Matters: Remaking U-M in the Auto Age
DESCRIPTION:The U-M we know is a product of the auto age\, its campus\, its scholarship\, and its politics all remade by Michigan’s defining industry and the sweeping changes it unleashed. Professor Kevin Boyle (Northwestern University) will explore this history in his talk \"Money Matters: Remaking U-M in the Auto Age.\"\n\nThis LSA Bicentennial Theme Semester event is presented with support from the College of Literature\, Science\, and the Arts and the University of Michigan Bicentennial Office. Additional support provided by the Department of History and the Eisenberg Institute for Historical Studies.

DESCRIPTION:I'll talk about shifted Young tableaux\, which are (among their various applications) the Type B analogs of ordinary Young tableaux -- they give the structure constants for the cohomology rings of odd orthogonal Grassmannians.\n\nI'll talk about some crystal-like structures I've been working on for these tableaux (jointly with Maria Gillespie and Kevin Purbhoo)\, motivated by wanting a local combinatorial rule for a tableau-theoretic operation coming from geometry.\n\nThis work is still in progress\, so I will try to keep the talk casual and draw lots of pictures.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Group\, Lie and Number Theory
DESCRIPTION:Initiated by Langlands\, the problem of computing the Hasse-Weil zeta functions of Shimura varieties in terms of automorphic L-functions has received continual study. The strategy proposed by Langlands\, later made more precise by Kottwitz\, is to compare the Grothendieck-Lefschetz trace formula for Shimura varieties with the trace formula for automorphic forms. Recently the program has been extended to some Shimura varieties not treated before. In the particular case of orthogonal Shimura varieties\, we discuss the proof of Kottwitz's conjectural comparison (between the intersection cohomology of their minimal compactifications and the stable trace formulas). Key ingredients include point counting on these Shimura varieties\, Morel's theorem on intersection cohomology\, and explicit computation in representation theory mostly for real Lie groups.\n Speaker(s): Yihang Zhu (Harvard University)

SUMMARY:Presentation:CSEAS Presentation. You Should Go to Asia
DESCRIPTION:Nobody wants to be a tourist\, someone who seems clueless about how to act in a new place\, and stands out as not being of that place. For Americans and those living in America\, it can be tricky to visit a place like Asia and not only be perceived by others as a non-tourist\, but also go beyond perception that the place is novel\, exciting\, and different. To the people living there\, none of that is the case: it is their normal\, ordinary life. \n\nAlison Byrnes\, a Michigan alum who lived in India for seven years\, will lead this interactive presentation that goes beyond the “basics” (what to wear\, how not to offend) to the next level of cultivating a mindset that is conducive to deep engagement in South Asia and Southeast Asia.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:AIA Lecture | Big Amphoras\, Little Loom Weights:  Archaeological Approaches to Economic Change
DESCRIPTION:Scholars have long debated the degree of economic growth and development in the Graeco-Roman world. Much of the debate in recent years has focused on counting things (e.g.\, oil presses in north Africa) or measuring things (e.g.\, tonnages of shipwrecks). But economic change is not just about doing more\; it is also about behaving differently.\n\nStudying changes in behavior can still involve counting and measuring\, but it also involves close study of the artifacts themselves. Agriculture was a major component of ancient economies\, and the artifact most closely associated with agricultural production and trade was the plain clay transport amphora. From the Archaic through Hellenistic periods (roughly the 7th through 1st centuries BC)\, some of these jars became much more precisely standardized\, some were carefully marked with their date of manufacture. Some types were closely identifiable with particular cities\, others were only generically associated with broad regions. Such characteristics of these jars would have influenced how merchants and consumers behaved.\n\nAncient economies also depended on household production\, of which the product most often mentioned is cloth. Greek vase painting and poetry is replete with images of women at the loom. This aspect of ancient economic life\, however\, has played little role in studies of ancient economic development. And yet\, as with amphoras\, we can see indications of changing behavior from a close study of loom weights\, the small plain clay weights used to maintain tension on the threads of a Greek loom.\n\nArchaeological Institute of America Anita Krause Bader Lecture in Mediterranean Archaeology.\nThis event is free and open to the public.

At the center of it all is the homicidal\, unhinged Ichi. Warped by the rival gangs and their desire for ultimate power\, Ichi is seduced by their psychological manipulation that catapults him into an enraged spree of pop art assassinations\, in search for redemption and answers for his life.\nBased from the acclaimed manga of HIDEO YAMAMOTO and grated through the eye-popping prolific lens of filmmaker TAKASHI MIIKE\, this sensationalist turn at gangster noir offers a unique vantage point from the new millennium.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:LGBTQ+ Health & Wellness Week Keynote Speaker
DESCRIPTION:We are inviting you to attend the 2nd Annual Health and Wellness Week which will include a series of diverse events focusing health and wellness for queer\, trans\, and similarly-identified individuals. Campus and community members will be encouraged to participate through hosting and attending various events.\n\n\nKeynote Speaker: \nAmorie Robinson\, PhD\, LP (aka \"Kofi Adoma”)\nPronouns: She/Her/Hers\n\nDr. Robinson is a fully licensed clinical psychologist practicing in and around Detroit where she is a native and resident. She received her Bachelor’s degree in Psychology at Oberlin College. She earned her Master’s degree in Educational Psychology and doctorate in Clinical Psychology at the University of Michigan. Dr. Robinson works at the Clinic for Child Study conducting therapy with adjudicated youth and their families. As a psychotherapist at various outpatient psychiatric clinics\, she has spent 21 years working with adults\, adolescents\, and children. At present\, she is at Northland Clinic in Farmington Hills. She has been a lecturer at the University of Michigan Women’s Studies department teaching LGBT Studies and a Multicultural Context group process course. She does clinical supervision at the Michigan School of Professional Psychology where she has taught a family therapy course. Dr. Robinson conducts cultural competency trainings for mental health providers and educators across the state of Michigan. She has published 4 scholarly articles related to the psychology of Black lesbian adults and youth. The latest is a book chapter on Black LGBTQ/GNC youth in juvenile justice (in Black LGBT Health: The Intersection of Race\, Gender\, and Sexual Orientation). Dr. Robinson is a co-founder and former board member of the Ruth Ellis Center in Highland Park\, an agency serving at-risk homeless LGBTQ/GNC youth. She is also president of the Metro Detroit chapter of the Association of Black Psychologists and a member of the Association for Women in Psychology. \n\nDuring LGBTQ Health & Wellness Week\, Dr. Robinson will give a speech entitled Our Mental Health Self-Care is the Best # Resistance. As this country continues to encounter major societal setbacks that specifically affect those of us who are LGBTQ/GNC\, people of color\, women\, Muslims\, Jews\, differently-abled\, individuals from other countries\, and the economically-disadvantaged (and more)\, it is prime time to arm ourselves in a number of different levels. Our health cannot be taken for granted. We cannot engage in the struggle for equity and liberation without first having checked into ourselves. Using feminist/womanist\, Africentric\, intersectional\, and multicultural lenses\, Dr. Robinson will provide a message full of warrior-like strength and practical information on mental health self-care strategies\, from the perspective of a Black masculine-identified lesbian psychologist and educator.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:PSK/Dennis Gillan: \"Standing Tall in the Face of Mental Health\"
DESCRIPTION:Phi Sigma Kappa is proud to bring alumnus Dennis Gillan (WVU '85) to the University of Michigan campus in corraberation with the Panhellenic and Interfraternity Councils. Dennis lost two brothers to suicide and handled each one very differently. Audience members will benefit from his experiences and will come to learn why he is a big fan of professional counseling and other life lessons.\n\nhttp://dennisgillan.com/\n\nDENNIS’ STORY\n\nDennis Gillan is an ordinary guy with an extraordinary story of perseverance. After years of silence regarding the suicide deaths of his brothers\, Dennis shares his story of survival.\n\nADVOCATE\nDennis can now draw upon his former experience working on the National Suicide Prevention Hotline and his most recent work with the Out of The Darkness Walks. The numbers for completed suicides are heading in the wrong direction and a call to action is needed. Dennis can deliver that call and the audience will respond.\n\nCOACH\nDennis is a part-time lacrosse coach for his local high school and a full-time fanatic for the sport. Dennis has a special ability to connect with these kids through coaching and it shows in his public speaking. Motivating an audience of any age or size is no problem and his message is simple – life is worth living.\n\nFAMILY MAN\nWhen Dennis is not speaking he is trying to keep up with his two college-aged boys and he feeds his ego by pretending to be an athlete by playing some very bad tennis and some awful lacrosse:) Dennis is based in South Carolina\, was raised in New York\, and really connects with people from coast to coast with his genuine style and passion for the cause. Dennis is well suited for any climate and any audience from middle aged school kids to C suite executives and everyone in between.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Banner Moments: The National Anthem in American Life
DESCRIPTION:The new Ford Presidential Library lobby exhibit\, curated by University of Michigan musicologist Mark Clague\, illustrates through interpretive panels\, historical documents and photographs\, the cultural 200-year history of “The Star-Spangled Banner” (1814–2014). The tale that emerges demonstrates the power of music and poetry to spark the social imagination and thus create a sense of shared community.\n\nInspired by the successful defense of Baltimore\, Maryland from British attack in September 1814\, lawyer and amateur poet Francis Scott Key penned his now famous lyric. Rather than extraordinary\, Key’s creative impulse was typical of early America’s broadside ballad tradition in which new words were written to fit well known tunes. The result\, however\, was far from everyday—Key could not have predicted that his song would survive the moment\, yet become his nation’s singular anthem.\n\nFollow the “The Star-Spangled Banner” from the moments leading up to September 14\, 1814 through the present day and explore the social history of our national song.\nMarch 2017 to September 2017 \n\nMonday - Friday. 8:45 am - 4:45 pm\nClosed all Federal holidays.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Another Country
DESCRIPTION:The scenes in Another Country emerge from daily images of conflict and uprising. Discarded shoes\, tarps and handmade signs that mark the post-industrial landscape become part roadside memorial and part doomsday prophecy. These temporary sculptures - set against the backdrop of environmental decline - evoke a cautionary tale of hazmat crews and oil soaked shorelines. \n\nIf there is a place for both apathy and active resistance in the way forward to a better future\, Another Country carries the tension that’s in-between. Inspired by the visual resistance of liberation parties\, past and present\, it urges us to remember why we fight.\n\nShanna Merola is an artist\, activist\, and documentary photographer. Working for civil rights attorneys\, she photographs first amendment activity at protests and facilitates workshops on best practices during police encounters. Over the past five years she has been a human rights observer for social justice movements across the country - from the deeply embattled struggle over water rights in Detroit and Flint\, Michigan - to the frontlines of uprisings in Ferguson\, MO and Standing Rock\, ND. Her collages and constructed landscapes are informed by these rallies - from direct actions against fracking companies to the privatization of water both globally and locally. She is currently working on a collaborative production of Know Your Rights Theatre\, inspired by the politically radical puppet troupes of the 1960’s.\n\nMerola received an MFA in Photography from Cranbrook Academy of Art and a BFA in Photo and Film from Virginia Commonwealth University. She lives and works in Detroit\, Michigan.

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:Chicana Fotos: Nancy De Los Santos
DESCRIPTION:Exhibition Dates: Friday\, February 17 - April 14\, 2017\nOpening Reception: Friday\, February 17\, 2017 from 4 - 7 pm\, featuring a performance by Ballet Folklórico De Detroit at 6 pm.\nGallery Talk by Nancy De Los Santos and exhibition curator Maria Cotera: Friday\, February 17\, 2017 at 12 pm\, Walter P. Reuther Library Woodcock Conference Room\nWalter P. Reuther Library at Wayne State University\n5401 Cass Ave\, Detroit\, MI 48202\n\nBorn and raised in Chicago by Mexican-American parents\, Nancy De Los Santos is an accomplished filmmaker and proud “Chicana from Chicago” who has dedicated her life and career to rewriting and redefining the image of Latina/os in the mainstream media. Among her most celebrated works are as Co-Writer and Co-Producer of The Bronze Screen: 100 Years of the Latin Image in Hollywood Cinema\, with Susan Racho and Alberto Dominguez\, and as Associate Producer on the feature film Selena.\n\nIn Chicana Fotos\, an exhibit of evocative photographs taken in the 1970s\, we meet a very different Nancy: a woman armed with a camera\, capturing historic events in the struggles for social justice of the time. Nancy’s photographs of Chicano Movement marches and rallies\, farmworker mobilizations in Chicago and Texas\, and Latina organizing in the Midwest and internationally offer a priceless documentary view of Latina/o politics in the 1970s. Her more intimate pictures of everyday Latina/o life capture what it was like to live through a period of radical social transformation. The exhibit includes rare photographs of UFW organizing activities in Chicago\, the Texas Farmworker Pilgrimage of 1977\, and the first ever International Women’s Year Conference in Mexico City in 1975. These images are supplemented by never before exhibited documents from the Walter P. Reuther UFW Collection.\n\nChicana Fotos was curated by University of Michigan professor Maria Cotera (with assistance from Pau Nava) and designed by students and faculty of the UM Stamps School of Art & Design. Stamps School faculty Hannah Smotrich and Katie Rubin co-taught the collaborative\, interdisciplinary Exhibition Design class with students Ian Crowley\, Rachel Dawson\, Emilie Farrugia\, Kelsi Franzino\, Andrew Han\, Jack Hyland\, Maggie Lemak\, Megan Lewin-Smith\, Katie Mongoven\, Olivia Moore\, Pau Nava\, and Sarah Wolf.\n\nChicana Fotos is a collaboration between the El Museo del Norte\, the Chicana por mi Raza Digital Archive\, the Stamps School of Art & Design and the Walter P. Reuther Library at Wayne State University.\n\nThe Walter P. Reuther Library of Labor and Urban Affairs at Wayne State University is the largest labor archive in North America. In addition to internationally significant collections on the history of the North American labor movement\, the Reuther Library holds the official records of Wayne State University\, as well as extensive records documenting urban affairs\, civic life\, civil rights\, ethnic and religious organizations\, and community development across Southeast Michigan.\n\nChicana Fotos was made possible through the generous financial support of the University of Michigan’s Third Century Initiative and the Stamps School of Art & Design. Gallery talk sponsored by the Center for Latina/o and Latin American Studies\, Wayne State University\, and the University of Michigan’s Third Century Initiative.

The Big History Project tackles these challenges by helping students form big pictures of the past\, present\, and the future as well as teaching effective ways to examine claims. The Big History Project\, a free course for high schools\, was created because of Bill Gates’ personal interest in\nproviding this big-picture\, problem-based class to high school students around the world.\n\nThis is the seventh in a series of ten distinguished lectures held on the second Tuesday of each month. The next lecture will be held April 4\, 2017. The title is Emergency Medicine – The Good Things Wars Give Us!

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Constructing Gender
DESCRIPTION:Ask U-M students\, alumni\, or fans what symbolizes the University of Michigan\, and you’ll likely hear the Big House\, the Diag\, along with the Michigan Union and the Michigan League. Since they officially opened in 1919 and 1929\, respectively\, the Union and League have been destinations for generations of Wolverines yet few know the rich history of the buildings’ origins or about the architects who brought them both to life: brothers and U-M alums Irving K. and Allen Pond.\n\nThe exhibition\, organized in celebration of the University of Michigan’s bicentennial in 2017\, illuminates the architecture and bustling student life of these iconic buildings using original drawings\, renderings\, photographs\, color studies\, and even dance cards from the Bentley Historical Library\, which serves as the University of Michigan archives. These fascinating documents reveal how the buildings were conceived\, constructed\, and first occupied by students and alumni. Guest curated by Nancy Bartlett of the Bentley Historical Library\, the exhibition reveals how the Ponds meticulously conceived and constructed the two clubs—one for men\, one for women—by weaving ideas about gender and society into the very fabric of the buildings themselves.\n\nLead support for this exhibition is provided by the Herbert W. and Susan L. Johe Endowment.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Ernestine Ruben at Willow Run
DESCRIPTION:In 2013\, artist Ernestine Ruben (BSDEs ’53) photographed the once-famed industrial complex Willow Run in Washtenaw County\, Michigan. Designed by her grandfather\, Detroit architect Albert Kahn\, for the Ford Motor Company\, Willow Run was an exemplar of American defense manufacturing because of its efficient mass-production of B-24 Liberators during World War II.\n\nFor this exhibition\, Ruben overlaid interior views of the now-dormant factory with imagined glimpses into her body’s interior landscape. The resulting compositions seem to breathe energy and light into the stagnant and cavernous spaces of Willow Run and suggest a longing for a productive existence undeterred by mortality for both Willow Run and the artist. Her grandfather’s role in the history of the site underscores Ruben’s personal connection.\n\nThe exhibition presents Ruben’s photographs of Willow Run in UMMA’s Photography Gallery and an original film—co-created by Ruben and video artist Seth Bernstein and featuring an original score by award-winning composer Stephen Hartke—in the Museum’s Forum.\n\nLead support for Ernestine Ruben at Willow Run: Mobilizing Memory is provided by the University of Michigan Office of the Provost and the Herbert W. and Susan L.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:GOIN’ NORTH: BLACK DETROIT  AND THE  GREAT MIGRATION\,  1910-1930
DESCRIPTION:Summary: \nExhibit of photographs and documents produced by the Michigan Historical Collections in Commemoration of Martin Luther King\, Jr. Day at the University of Michigan\, published 1991.\nBLACK DETROIT AND THE GREAT MIGRATION\n\nSince Norf is up\,\nAn’ Souf is down\,\nAn’ Hebben is up\,\nI’m upward boun’.*\nThey came to Detroit by the thousands from Georgia\, Alabama\, Tennessee\, South Caroline and they stayed. They were part of what historians characterize as a watershed in African American History-the Great Migration. From 1910 to 1930\, hundreds of thousands of Blacks headed North\, leaving the South because of economic hardship\, poor educational opportunities\, and enticed by the lure of better jobs in northern industries and more freedom. Cites in the industrial Northeast and Midwest experienced astounding increases in their Black populations\, but few more so that Detroit\, its institutions and its cultures\, took shape and developed. The problems encountered by the migrants in the form of discrimination and racial animosity were problems with which the city would grapple throughout the decades to follow.\n\nThis exhibit focused on the two major concerns of the migrants\, housing and jobs\, and on the attempts made by various organizations in adjusting to life in Detroit. It is primarily compiled from the holding s of the University of Michigan’s Bentley Historical Library\, particularly the rich collection of the Detroit Urban League. It is also drawn from the Collections of the Detroit Public Library\, the Walter Reuther Collection of the Detroit Public Library\, the Walter Reuther Collection of Labor History and Urban Affairs (Wayne State University)\, the Collections of the Henry Ford Museum and Greenfield Village\, the Detroit News\, and tge Second Baptist Church of Detroit\, Michigan. The exhibit was prepared by Christine Weideman and Karen Jania\, staff members of the Bentley Historical Library.\n\n*From the poem\, “Northboun’” by Lucy Ariel Williams\, printed in Opportunity “: a Journal of Negro Life\, June 1926. The journal was a publication of the National Urban League.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Moving Image: Landscape
DESCRIPTION:Moving Image: Landscape explores traditional notions of landscape through four very different time-based works by artists Jim Campbell\, Antti Laitinen\, Joanie Lemercier\, and Rick Silva.\n\nCampbell’s recent body of work\, including Seal Rock\, presents pixilated images of landscapes created with grids of LEDs. The low-resolution LEDs create a tension between representation and abstraction\, provoking viewers to interpret visual information on their own. In the three-channel video It’s My Island Laitinen builds his own island in the Baltic Sea by dragging two hundred sand bags into the water over a period of three months. The work explores ideas of nationality\, citizenship\, and identity as the artist creates his own single-citizen micro-nation. Lemercier’s computer-generated print Landforms uses patterns of black dots and projected light to create the illusion of three-dimensionality and movement when seen from a distance. The effects are more realistic than a still image\, but still unsettlingly artificial. Silva’s Render Garden explores the digitized landscape\, including remix and glitch aesthetics\, through software that endlessly generates new plant combinations.\n\nThroughout the next year UMMA will present a series of exhibitions drawn from the Borusan Contemporary Art Collection in Istanbul. The Borusan’s thirty-year-old collection includes significant works across a variety of genres\, and since 2011 it has focused on media arts. The works exhibited here address formal concerns such as abstraction and color\, and conceptual topics such as identity or ecological issues\; many represent traditional categories such as portraiture and landscape that find new resonance when explored through the strategies of dynamic technology.\nLead support for this exhibition is provided by the Susan and Richard Gutow Fund\,\nthe Herbert W. and Susan L. Johe Endowment\, and the University of Michigan Institute for the Humanities and Penny W. Stamps School of Art and Design.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Protecting Wisdom: Tibetan Book Covers from the MacLean Collection
DESCRIPTION:Protecting Wisdom: Tibetan Book Covers from the MacLean Collection is the first major exhibition to examine the subject of Tibetan book covers. For Tibetan Buddhists\, books are a divine presence in which the Buddha lives and reveals himself\, and they are venerated and handled with the utmost respect. The exhibition features 33 book covers dating from the eleventh to the eighteenth century that represent the glorious iconographic array and non-figural decoration typical of these sacred items. The majority of covers in the exhibition are Tibetan Buddhist\, but the exhibition also includes a rare Bon-religion cover and two covers from Mongolia\, as well as an important pair of covers produced circa 1411 for the Chinese Ming emperor Yongle. Protecting Wisdom presents a stunning visual display that illuminates a virtually unknown type of art\, one that will charm and intrigue both those familiar and unfamiliar with Tibetan art.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Victors for Art: Michigan's Alumni Collectors–Part I: Figuration
DESCRIPTION:Commemorating the University of Michigan’s 2017 Bicentennial\, Victors for Art: Michigan’s Alumni Collectors celebrates the deep impact of Michigan alumni in the global art world. This two-part exhibition (Part I: Figuration followed by Part II: Abstraction on view July 1– October 29) presents works collected by a diverse group of alumni that represent the breadth of the University and over seventy years of graduating classes. The works themselves are equally diverse\, ranging from ancient sculptures to contemporary multimedia works. Part I: Figuration features works by Henri Matisse\, Elizabeth Louise Vigée Le Brun\, Mark Tansey\, and Mickalene Thomas\, among others\, and allows visitors to explore the variety of artistic responses and purposes encompassed by the term “figuration”. It also offers an unprecedented opportunity to view art that may have never been publicly displayed otherwise—and most certainly\, not all together. For visitors\, and especially for future Michigan alumni\, Victors for Art illuminates the shared passion for art fostered by the Michigan experience.\n\nThis exhibition was organized by Joseph Rosa\, Guest Curator\, in collaboration with Laura De Becker\, Helmut & Candis Stern Associate Curator of African Art\, Jennifer Friess\, Assistant Curator of Photography\, Lehti Mairike Keelman\, Assistant Curator of Western Art\, and Natsu Oyobe\, Curator of Asian Art.\n\nLead support for Victors for the Arts: Michigan's Alumni Collectors is provided by the University of Michigan Office of the Provost\, the University of Michigan Health System\, the University of Michigan Office of the President\, the Michigan Council for Arts and Cultural Affairs and the National Endowment for the Arts\, and the University of Michigan Bicentennial Office.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Health\, History\, Demography & Development (H2D2): Tuskegee and the Health of Black Men
DESCRIPTION:Abstract\n\nFor forty years\, the Tuskegee Study of Untreated Syphilis in the Negro Male passively monitored hundreds of adult black males with syphilis despite the availability of effective treatment. The study's methods have become synonymous with exploitation and mistreatment by the\nmedical community. We find that the historical disclosure of the study in 1972 is correlated with increases in medical mistrust and mortality and decreases in both outpatient and inpatient physician interactions for older black men. Our estimates imply life expectancy at age 45 for\nblack men fell by up to 1.4 years in response to the disclosure\, accounting for approximately 35% of the 1980 life expectancy gap between black and white men.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:LRCCS Noon Lecture Series | Land\, Housing\, Air: Deciphering Urban Governance in China and India
DESCRIPTION:This talk is part of a book project that comparatively examines how cities in China and India have become strategic terrains for the remaking of citizen rights. The book is based on historical-comparative analyses and ethnographic fieldwork on land grabs\, slum evictions\, and clean-air campaigns in five urban regions in China and India (Delhi\, Mumbai\, Kolkata\, Beijing\, and Guangzhou). \n    \nXuefei Ren (Associate Professor of Sociology and Global Urban Studies) is a comparative urbanist whose work focuses on urban development\, governance\, architecture\, and the built environment in global perspective. She is the author two award-winning books--\"Building Globalization: Transnational Architecture Production in Urban China\" (2011) and \"Urban China\" (2013). She is also the lead editor of \"Globalizing Cities Reader\" (2017\, Routledge). Currently she is working on a number of new projects\, including a book comparing urban governance and citizen rights in China and India\, a photo-documentary of Detroit and China’s rust-belt cities\, and a series of comparative articles examining informal settlements\, mega-events\, and spectacles in cities in Brazil\, China\, and India. In 2016-2017\, she is a Frederick Burkhardt residential fellow of the American Council of Learned Societies. Ren received her PhD in Sociology from the University of Chicago.

DESCRIPTION:The popularity of hybrids\, GM seeds\, synthetic pesticides etc. are frequently indexed through their sales figures\, yet studies of the everyday transactions through which farmers purchase agri-inputs are rare. This talk provides an account of the everyday relationship of farmers with transnational and domestic agribusiness capital\, by focusing on the figure of the village-level petty retailer of chemical inputs. Retailers are those who provision farmers with seeds\, fertilizers\, pesticides\, and other chemicals\, manufactured by companies like Monsanto and Syngenta. They thus constitute the bottom-most rung of the agribusiness supply chain. The talk traces the rise of such village-level retailers in western Maharashtra\, India\, since the 1990s\, and finds that Maratha (a dominant land-holding caste) farmers have ventured into retailing\, as their first foray into entrepreneurship. From the sale of seeds and chemical inputs\, to the extension of credit\, and the marketing of harvest\, the talk details how retailers mediate virtually all steps of farming. Ultimately\, the talk argues that the entry of Marathas into petty retail represents a precarious attempt at upward mobility\, troubling the capital/farmers opposition in the literature on corporate food regimes and food sovereignty.\n\nCo sponsored by Environmental Justice\, SNRE\, Anthropology Department and Center for South Asian Studies

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:CM-AMO Seminar | Erbium Doped Materials for Optical Quantum Memories
DESCRIPTION:Rare-earth doped solids are known for their luminescence properties. Among them erbium takes a special place because the Erbium Doped Fiber Amplifier has revolutionized the telecommunications by giving access to long distance communication. The transposition of this scheme to quantum cryptography is appealing. The core element of the so-called quantum repeater is an optical memory [1] for which direct operation at 1.5mm is desirable. We use an erbium doped crystal in the C-band of telecom. I’ll essentially focus on the material properties: how they impact the memory performances and how they can be controlled in this prospect. \n\nI’ll first introduce the general properties of rare-earth ions inserted in optical crystals. The goal of theses opening remarks is essentially pedagogical. To pay honour to whom honour is due\, I’ll give also points of comparison with other atomic systems as atomic vapours (hot or cold)\, trapped ions or coloured centres in diamond. \n\nI’ll briefly review the recent work that we did on an erbium doped yttrium orthosilicate sample (Er3+:Y2SiO5) by applying an original protocol named Revival of Silenced Echo (ROSE) [2]. These later is quite efficient in Er3+:Y2SiO5 [2] as compared to other protocols. I’ll finally show that these performances are limited by the erbium-erbium electron spin interaction [3]. \n\nAlthough we work on the optical transition\, the spin properties are absolutely critical for the coherence time governing the memory storage time. As an illustration\, I’ll present a recent study of an Er3+:Y2SiO5 crystal in which we added a controlled level of disorder with scandium as co-dopant [4]. This perturbation can surprisingly increase the coherence time at low magnetic field. This counter intuitive result is due to the reduction of Er-Er spin flip-flop rate because the disorder effectively slows down the flip-flop mechanism by making the magnetic interaction non resonant.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Causal Inference in Education Research Seminar (CIERS): Making Information Work for Low-Income Students in College Choice: Experimental Evidence under Centralized Admissions
DESCRIPTION:Abstract\n\nIn this paper\, we provide novel evidence on the role of information in low-income students' college choices from China\, where all high school graduates take the common college entrance exam and application under a centralized admissions system. We have implemented a stratified school-cluster RCT among 35\,000 public high school seniors in one of the poorest provinces in China in 2016. We find substantial heterogeneities in treatment effects interacting between program designs (simple information vs. comprehensive information vs. assistance) and student characteristics.  This paper suggests that low-income students' college choices can be improved at a very low cost and during a very short time period.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Banner Moments: The National Anthem in American Life
DESCRIPTION:The new Ford Presidential Library lobby exhibit\, curated by University of Michigan musicologist Mark Clague\, illustrates through interpretive panels\, historical documents and photographs\, the cultural 200-year history of “The Star-Spangled Banner” (1814–2014). The tale that emerges demonstrates the power of music and poetry to spark the social imagination and thus create a sense of shared community.\n\nInspired by the successful defense of Baltimore\, Maryland from British attack in September 1814\, lawyer and amateur poet Francis Scott Key penned his now famous lyric. Rather than extraordinary\, Key’s creative impulse was typical of early America’s broadside ballad tradition in which new words were written to fit well known tunes. The result\, however\, was far from everyday—Key could not have predicted that his song would survive the moment\, yet become his nation’s singular anthem.\n\nFollow the “The Star-Spangled Banner” from the moments leading up to September 14\, 1814 through the present day and explore the social history of our national song.\nMarch 2017 to September 2017 \n\nMonday - Friday. 8:45 am - 4:45 pm\nClosed all Federal holidays.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Another Country
DESCRIPTION:The scenes in Another Country emerge from daily images of conflict and uprising. Discarded shoes\, tarps and handmade signs that mark the post-industrial landscape become part roadside memorial and part doomsday prophecy. These temporary sculptures - set against the backdrop of environmental decline - evoke a cautionary tale of hazmat crews and oil soaked shorelines. \n\nIf there is a place for both apathy and active resistance in the way forward to a better future\, Another Country carries the tension that’s in-between. Inspired by the visual resistance of liberation parties\, past and present\, it urges us to remember why we fight.\n\nShanna Merola is an artist\, activist\, and documentary photographer. Working for civil rights attorneys\, she photographs first amendment activity at protests and facilitates workshops on best practices during police encounters. Over the past five years she has been a human rights observer for social justice movements across the country - from the deeply embattled struggle over water rights in Detroit and Flint\, Michigan - to the frontlines of uprisings in Ferguson\, MO and Standing Rock\, ND. Her collages and constructed landscapes are informed by these rallies - from direct actions against fracking companies to the privatization of water both globally and locally. She is currently working on a collaborative production of Know Your Rights Theatre\, inspired by the politically radical puppet troupes of the 1960’s.\n\nMerola received an MFA in Photography from Cranbrook Academy of Art and a BFA in Photo and Film from Virginia Commonwealth University. She lives and works in Detroit\, Michigan.

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:Chicana Fotos: Nancy De Los Santos
DESCRIPTION:Exhibition Dates: Friday\, February 17 - April 14\, 2017\nOpening Reception: Friday\, February 17\, 2017 from 4 - 7 pm\, featuring a performance by Ballet Folklórico De Detroit at 6 pm.\nGallery Talk by Nancy De Los Santos and exhibition curator Maria Cotera: Friday\, February 17\, 2017 at 12 pm\, Walter P. Reuther Library Woodcock Conference Room\nWalter P. Reuther Library at Wayne State University\n5401 Cass Ave\, Detroit\, MI 48202\n\nBorn and raised in Chicago by Mexican-American parents\, Nancy De Los Santos is an accomplished filmmaker and proud “Chicana from Chicago” who has dedicated her life and career to rewriting and redefining the image of Latina/os in the mainstream media. Among her most celebrated works are as Co-Writer and Co-Producer of The Bronze Screen: 100 Years of the Latin Image in Hollywood Cinema\, with Susan Racho and Alberto Dominguez\, and as Associate Producer on the feature film Selena.\n\nIn Chicana Fotos\, an exhibit of evocative photographs taken in the 1970s\, we meet a very different Nancy: a woman armed with a camera\, capturing historic events in the struggles for social justice of the time. Nancy’s photographs of Chicano Movement marches and rallies\, farmworker mobilizations in Chicago and Texas\, and Latina organizing in the Midwest and internationally offer a priceless documentary view of Latina/o politics in the 1970s. Her more intimate pictures of everyday Latina/o life capture what it was like to live through a period of radical social transformation. The exhibit includes rare photographs of UFW organizing activities in Chicago\, the Texas Farmworker Pilgrimage of 1977\, and the first ever International Women’s Year Conference in Mexico City in 1975. These images are supplemented by never before exhibited documents from the Walter P. Reuther UFW Collection.\n\nChicana Fotos was curated by University of Michigan professor Maria Cotera (with assistance from Pau Nava) and designed by students and faculty of the UM Stamps School of Art & Design. Stamps School faculty Hannah Smotrich and Katie Rubin co-taught the collaborative\, interdisciplinary Exhibition Design class with students Ian Crowley\, Rachel Dawson\, Emilie Farrugia\, Kelsi Franzino\, Andrew Han\, Jack Hyland\, Maggie Lemak\, Megan Lewin-Smith\, Katie Mongoven\, Olivia Moore\, Pau Nava\, and Sarah Wolf.\n\nChicana Fotos is a collaboration between the El Museo del Norte\, the Chicana por mi Raza Digital Archive\, the Stamps School of Art & Design and the Walter P. Reuther Library at Wayne State University.\n\nThe Walter P. Reuther Library of Labor and Urban Affairs at Wayne State University is the largest labor archive in North America. In addition to internationally significant collections on the history of the North American labor movement\, the Reuther Library holds the official records of Wayne State University\, as well as extensive records documenting urban affairs\, civic life\, civil rights\, ethnic and religious organizations\, and community development across Southeast Michigan.\n\nChicana Fotos was made possible through the generous financial support of the University of Michigan’s Third Century Initiative and the Stamps School of Art & Design. Gallery talk sponsored by the Center for Latina/o and Latin American Studies\, Wayne State University\, and the University of Michigan’s Third Century Initiative.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Constructing Gender
DESCRIPTION:Ask U-M students\, alumni\, or fans what symbolizes the University of Michigan\, and you’ll likely hear the Big House\, the Diag\, along with the Michigan Union and the Michigan League. Since they officially opened in 1919 and 1929\, respectively\, the Union and League have been destinations for generations of Wolverines yet few know the rich history of the buildings’ origins or about the architects who brought them both to life: brothers and U-M alums Irving K. and Allen Pond.\n\nThe exhibition\, organized in celebration of the University of Michigan’s bicentennial in 2017\, illuminates the architecture and bustling student life of these iconic buildings using original drawings\, renderings\, photographs\, color studies\, and even dance cards from the Bentley Historical Library\, which serves as the University of Michigan archives. These fascinating documents reveal how the buildings were conceived\, constructed\, and first occupied by students and alumni. Guest curated by Nancy Bartlett of the Bentley Historical Library\, the exhibition reveals how the Ponds meticulously conceived and constructed the two clubs—one for men\, one for women—by weaving ideas about gender and society into the very fabric of the buildings themselves.\n\nLead support for this exhibition is provided by the Herbert W. and Susan L. Johe Endowment.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Ernestine Ruben at Willow Run
DESCRIPTION:In 2013\, artist Ernestine Ruben (BSDEs ’53) photographed the once-famed industrial complex Willow Run in Washtenaw County\, Michigan. Designed by her grandfather\, Detroit architect Albert Kahn\, for the Ford Motor Company\, Willow Run was an exemplar of American defense manufacturing because of its efficient mass-production of B-24 Liberators during World War II.\n\nFor this exhibition\, Ruben overlaid interior views of the now-dormant factory with imagined glimpses into her body’s interior landscape. The resulting compositions seem to breathe energy and light into the stagnant and cavernous spaces of Willow Run and suggest a longing for a productive existence undeterred by mortality for both Willow Run and the artist. Her grandfather’s role in the history of the site underscores Ruben’s personal connection.\n\nThe exhibition presents Ruben’s photographs of Willow Run in UMMA’s Photography Gallery and an original film—co-created by Ruben and video artist Seth Bernstein and featuring an original score by award-winning composer Stephen Hartke—in the Museum’s Forum.\n\nLead support for Ernestine Ruben at Willow Run: Mobilizing Memory is provided by the University of Michigan Office of the Provost and the Herbert W. and Susan L. Johe Endowment.\n\n\n\nLead support for Victors for the Arts: Michigan's Alumni Collectors is provided by the University of Michigan Office of the Provost\, the University of Michigan Health System\, the University of Michigan Office of the President\, the Michigan Council for Arts and Cultural Affairs and the National Endowment for the Arts\, and the University of Michigan Bicentennial Office.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:GOIN’ NORTH: BLACK DETROIT  AND THE  GREAT MIGRATION\,  1910-1930
DESCRIPTION:Summary: \nExhibit of photographs and documents produced by the Michigan Historical Collections in Commemoration of Martin Luther King\, Jr. Day at the University of Michigan\, published 1991.\nBLACK DETROIT AND THE GREAT MIGRATION\n\nSince Norf is up\,\nAn’ Souf is down\,\nAn’ Hebben is up\,\nI’m upward boun’.*\nThey came to Detroit by the thousands from Georgia\, Alabama\, Tennessee\, South Caroline and they stayed. They were part of what historians characterize as a watershed in African American History-the Great Migration. From 1910 to 1930\, hundreds of thousands of Blacks headed North\, leaving the South because of economic hardship\, poor educational opportunities\, and enticed by the lure of better jobs in northern industries and more freedom. Cites in the industrial Northeast and Midwest experienced astounding increases in their Black populations\, but few more so that Detroit\, its institutions and its cultures\, took shape and developed. The problems encountered by the migrants in the form of discrimination and racial animosity were problems with which the city would grapple throughout the decades to follow.\n\nThis exhibit focused on the two major concerns of the migrants\, housing and jobs\, and on the attempts made by various organizations in adjusting to life in Detroit. It is primarily compiled from the holding s of the University of Michigan’s Bentley Historical Library\, particularly the rich collection of the Detroit Urban League. It is also drawn from the Collections of the Detroit Public Library\, the Walter Reuther Collection of the Detroit Public Library\, the Walter Reuther Collection of Labor History and Urban Affairs (Wayne State University)\, the Collections of the Henry Ford Museum and Greenfield Village\, the Detroit News\, and tge Second Baptist Church of Detroit\, Michigan. The exhibit was prepared by Christine Weideman and Karen Jania\, staff members of the Bentley Historical Library.\n\n*From the poem\, “Northboun’” by Lucy Ariel Williams\, printed in Opportunity “: a Journal of Negro Life\, June 1926. The journal was a publication of the National Urban League.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Moving Image: Landscape
DESCRIPTION:Moving Image: Landscape explores traditional notions of landscape through four very different time-based works by artists Jim Campbell\, Antti Laitinen\, Joanie Lemercier\, and Rick Silva.\n\nCampbell’s recent body of work\, including Seal Rock\, presents pixilated images of landscapes created with grids of LEDs. The low-resolution LEDs create a tension between representation and abstraction\, provoking viewers to interpret visual information on their own. In the three-channel video It’s My Island Laitinen builds his own island in the Baltic Sea by dragging two hundred sand bags into the water over a period of three months. The work explores ideas of nationality\, citizenship\, and identity as the artist creates his own single-citizen micro-nation. Lemercier’s computer-generated print Landforms uses patterns of black dots and projected light to create the illusion of three-dimensionality and movement when seen from a distance. The effects are more realistic than a still image\, but still unsettlingly artificial. Silva’s Render Garden explores the digitized landscape\, including remix and glitch aesthetics\, through software that endlessly generates new plant combinations.\n\nThroughout the next year UMMA will present a series of exhibitions drawn from the Borusan Contemporary Art Collection in Istanbul. The Borusan’s thirty-year-old collection includes significant works across a variety of genres\, and since 2011 it has focused on media arts. The works exhibited here address formal concerns such as abstraction and color\, and conceptual topics such as identity or ecological issues\; many represent traditional categories such as portraiture and landscape that find new resonance when explored through the strategies of dynamic technology.\nLead support for this exhibition is provided by the Susan and Richard Gutow Fund\,\nthe Herbert W. and Susan L. Johe Endowment\, and the University of Michigan Institute for the Humanities and Penny W. Stamps School of Art and Design.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Protecting Wisdom: Tibetan Book Covers from the MacLean Collection
DESCRIPTION:Protecting Wisdom: Tibetan Book Covers from the MacLean Collection is the first major exhibition to examine the subject of Tibetan book covers. For Tibetan Buddhists\, books are a divine presence in which the Buddha lives and reveals himself\, and they are venerated and handled with the utmost respect. The exhibition features 33 book covers dating from the eleventh to the eighteenth century that represent the glorious iconographic array and non-figural decoration typical of these sacred items. The majority of covers in the exhibition are Tibetan Buddhist\, but the exhibition also includes a rare Bon-religion cover and two covers from Mongolia\, as well as an important pair of covers produced circa 1411 for the Chinese Ming emperor Yongle. Protecting Wisdom presents a stunning visual display that illuminates a virtually unknown type of art\, one that will charm and intrigue both those familiar and unfamiliar with Tibetan art.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Victors for Art: Michigan's Alumni Collectors–Part I: Figuration
DESCRIPTION:Commemorating the University of Michigan’s 2017 Bicentennial\, Victors for Art: Michigan’s Alumni Collectors celebrates the deep impact of Michigan alumni in the global art world. This two-part exhibition (Part I: Figuration followed by Part II: Abstraction on view July 1– October 29) presents works collected by a diverse group of alumni that represent the breadth of the University and over seventy years of graduating classes. The works themselves are equally diverse\, ranging from ancient sculptures to contemporary multimedia works. Part I: Figuration features works by Henri Matisse\, Elizabeth Louise Vigée Le Brun\, Mark Tansey\, and Mickalene Thomas\, among others\, and allows visitors to explore the variety of artistic responses and purposes encompassed by the term “figuration”. It also offers an unprecedented opportunity to view art that may have never been publicly displayed otherwise—and most certainly\, not all together. For visitors\, and especially for future Michigan alumni\, Victors for Art illuminates the shared passion for art fostered by the Michigan experience.\n\nThis exhibition was organized by Joseph Rosa\, Guest Curator\, in collaboration with Laura De Becker\, Helmut & Candis Stern Associate Curator of African Art\, Jennifer Friess\, Assistant Curator of Photography\, Lehti Mairike Keelman\, Assistant Curator of Western Art\, and Natsu Oyobe\, Curator of Asian Art.\n\nLead support for Victors for the Arts: Michigan's Alumni Collectors is provided by the University of Michigan Office of the Provost\, the University of Michigan Health System\, the University of Michigan Office of the President\, the Michigan Council for Arts and Cultural Affairs and the National Endowment for the Arts\, and the University of Michigan Bicentennial Office.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:CREES Noon Lecture. Running Water in the Land of Spitting Dragons: Romani Labor and the Animation of Urban Infrastructures in Bulgaria
DESCRIPTION:In this CREES Noon Lecture\, Elana Resnick will explore the ways in which Romani (“Gypsy”) laborers and residents of segregated Romani neighborhoods in Sofia\, Bulgaria handle inconsistent infrastructural access\, focusing on water that flows only intermittently from outdoor taps. Resnick will illustrate how seemingly haphazard public utility provision prompts certain lines of logic-making that in turn reconfigure and animate the local landscape. The animation of local infrastructures becomes a secondary—and unpaid—form of Romani labor that enables laborers to live in conditions of infrastructural instability. Instead of understanding their urban environment as one of lack and loss\, many Roma living amidst material insecurity restructure their landscape into something full of life. Inanimate objects—like drain faucets and dead leaves—become dragons spitting water and fresh spinach. Join us for a discussion on the consequences of the animation of non-living objects on neighborhood sociality\, connections to state apparatuses\, and human-material relationships.\n\nElana Resnick holds a Ph.D. from the Department of Anthropology at the University of Michigan\, Ann Arbor. She is currently a Postdoctoral Fellow at the Havighurst Center for Russian and Post-Soviet Studies and a Visiting Assistant Professor in Global and Intercultural Studies at Miami University\, Ohio where she is working on a book manuscript based on her dissertation\, “Nothing Ever Perishes: Waste\, Race\, and Transformation in an Expanding European Union.” She is also conducting research on European urban water infrastructures\, energy politics and nuclear power\, and the historical connections between socialist industrialization and postsocialist labor practices. Most recently she has held positions as a Weatherhead Resident Scholar at the School for Advanced Research in Santa Fe and a Global Europe Research Scholar at the Woodrow Wilson Center in Washington D.C.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:HET Brown Bag Seminar | Bound State Effects on Dark Matter Annihilation
DESCRIPTION:I will discuss the non-perturbative effects from dark matter bound states and their impact on the searches for dark matter. The goal of this talk is to emphasize the importance of dark bound state channels using three examples. I first discuss two dark sector models where the dark matter interacts through a vector or the Higgs portal\, and the bound state channels allow indirect detection to explore a much wider range of the parameter space. I also discuss bound state effects on dark matter relic abundance in a co-annihilation model with a top/bottom quark partner.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Financial/Actuarial Mathematics
DESCRIPTION: While absence of arbitrage in frictionless financial markets (i.e. without transaction costs) requires price processes to be semimartingales\, non-semimartingales can be used to model prices in an arbitrage-free way\, if proportional transaction costs are taken into account. In this talk\, I will present an overview over several results that provide a way how to use non-semimartingale price processes such as the fractional Black-Scholes model in portfolio optimisation under proportional transaction costs by establishing the existence of a so-called shadow price. This is a semimartingale price process\, taking values in the bid ask spread\, such that frictionless trading for that price process leads to the same optimal strategy and utility as the original problem under transaction costs.\n\nThe talk is based on joint work with Walter Schachermayer.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:The Women's March: Notes from the Field
DESCRIPTION:An immediate question for scholars of – and activists in – the women’s movement is whether it will be able to mobilize a new generation activists to re-fight battles that were seemingly won long ago. The January 21st Women’s March on Washington was a significant first effort to mobilize women as women in the Trump era. \n\nIn this talk\, Professor Michael Heaney (Organizational Studies and Political Science) will present preliminary findings from surveys of participants at the Women’s March on Washington\, and discuss his larger research project on grassroots women’s movements in the U.S.\n\nRecommended Advance Reading: \"Organizing Women as Women: Hybridity and Grassroots Collective Action in the 21st Century\" by Kristin A. Goss and Michael T. Heaney\n\nRefreshments will be served.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Department Colloquium | Neutrinos from Nuclear Reactors: Searches and Surprises
DESCRIPTION:Nuclear reactors are very bright sources of neutrinos. The radioactive fission products are neutron rich\, and beta decay back to the valley of stability while emitting (electron anti-)neutrinos along the way. This was how the neutrino was discovered\, and how we verified that neutrino oscillations explained the Solar Neutrino Problem. More recently\, the Daya Bay Reactor Neutrino Experiment discovered a new mode of neutrino oscillation\, and the PROSPECT experiment is being planned to search for “sterile” neutrinos. \n\nThis talk will first review the basics of neutrinos\, their detection\, neutrino oscillations\, and nuclear reactors as neutrino sources. We’ll then take a tour of recent results and next steps\, including some surprises in what we’ve learned about the reactor neutrino source itself. \n\nBio: Jim Napolitano is Professor of Physics and Department Chair at Temple University\, arriving in January 2014 after 20 years at Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute. His field is experimental nuclear and particle physics with an emphasis on fundamental problems in physics and astrophysics. An enthusiastic educator\, he has developed several courses and has authored or co-authored revisions of three physics textbooks.

SUMMARY:Other:Heterogeneous Chemistry in the Lower Atmosphere: From Pesticides to Particles
DESCRIPTION:It is believed that chemistry on surfaces (\"heterogeneous chemistry\") in the lower atmosphere has significant impacts on both the uptake of gases from air as well as formation of new surface species and emission of products of these reactions into the atmosphere.  While traditional surface science approaches have provided a wealth of information on some reactions relevant to the atmosphere\,  they are often not suited to studying reactions at one atmosphere in air in the presence of water vapor.  As a result\, this area remains one of the least understood aspects of atmospheric chemistry.  \n\nStudies from this laboratory on two heterogeneous systems using a variety of experimental techniques will be described.  The first is the chemistry and photochemistry of thin films of neonicotinoid (NN) pesticides on surfaces.  These pesticides have found increasing use since their introduction in 1991. Their presence in the environment has been associated with bee colony collapse\, which has led to regulations in Europe and in some states in the U.S. such as Minnesota.  However\, assessments of toxicity typically only address the parent compound\, and do not take into account transformations in the environment that can form more toxic products.  We have used a combination of experiments and theory\, in collaboration with the group of R. B. Gerber\, to show that atmospheric reactions of the NNs on surfaces can indeed form more toxic products as well as N2O\, a potent greenhouse gas\, and to elucidate the mechanisms involved.\nThe second system is the reaction of solid dicarboxylic acids with gas phase amines.  Knudsen cell and associated studies show that there is a distinct difference in reactivity and mechanisms for odd carbon compared to even carbon diacids\, with the reactions of the odd carbon species forming ionic liquid layers on the surface.  The implications for atmospheric reactions will be discussed.\n\n\nBarbara Finlayson-Pitts (University of California\, Irvine)

Willie's latest release is the superb \"American Ride.\"

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Banner Moments: The National Anthem in American Life
DESCRIPTION:The new Ford Presidential Library lobby exhibit\, curated by University of Michigan musicologist Mark Clague\, illustrates through interpretive panels\, historical documents and photographs\, the cultural 200-year history of “The Star-Spangled Banner” (1814–2014). The tale that emerges demonstrates the power of music and poetry to spark the social imagination and thus create a sense of shared community.\n\nInspired by the successful defense of Baltimore\, Maryland from British attack in September 1814\, lawyer and amateur poet Francis Scott Key penned his now famous lyric. Rather than extraordinary\, Key’s creative impulse was typical of early America’s broadside ballad tradition in which new words were written to fit well known tunes. The result\, however\, was far from everyday—Key could not have predicted that his song would survive the moment\, yet become his nation’s singular anthem.\n\nFollow the “The Star-Spangled Banner” from the moments leading up to September 14\, 1814 through the present day and explore the social history of our national song.\nMarch 2017 to September 2017 \n\nMonday - Friday. 8:45 am - 4:45 pm\nClosed all Federal holidays.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Another Country
DESCRIPTION:The scenes in Another Country emerge from daily images of conflict and uprising. Discarded shoes\, tarps and handmade signs that mark the post-industrial landscape become part roadside memorial and part doomsday prophecy. These temporary sculptures - set against the backdrop of environmental decline - evoke a cautionary tale of hazmat crews and oil soaked shorelines. \n\nIf there is a place for both apathy and active resistance in the way forward to a better future\, Another Country carries the tension that’s in-between. Inspired by the visual resistance of liberation parties\, past and present\, it urges us to remember why we fight.\n\nShanna Merola is an artist\, activist\, and documentary photographer. Working for civil rights attorneys\, she photographs first amendment activity at protests and facilitates workshops on best practices during police encounters. Over the past five years she has been a human rights observer for social justice movements across the country - from the deeply embattled struggle over water rights in Detroit and Flint\, Michigan - to the frontlines of uprisings in Ferguson\, MO and Standing Rock\, ND. Her collages and constructed landscapes are informed by these rallies - from direct actions against fracking companies to the privatization of water both globally and locally. She is currently working on a collaborative production of Know Your Rights Theatre\, inspired by the politically radical puppet troupes of the 1960’s.\n\nMerola received an MFA in Photography from Cranbrook Academy of Art and a BFA in Photo and Film from Virginia Commonwealth University. She lives and works in Detroit\, Michigan.

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:Chicana Fotos: Nancy De Los Santos
DESCRIPTION:Exhibition Dates: Friday\, February 17 - April 14\, 2017\nOpening Reception: Friday\, February 17\, 2017 from 4 - 7 pm\, featuring a performance by Ballet Folklórico De Detroit at 6 pm.\nGallery Talk by Nancy De Los Santos and exhibition curator Maria Cotera: Friday\, February 17\, 2017 at 12 pm\, Walter P. Reuther Library Woodcock Conference Room\nWalter P. Reuther Library at Wayne State University\n5401 Cass Ave\, Detroit\, MI 48202\n\nBorn and raised in Chicago by Mexican-American parents\, Nancy De Los Santos is an accomplished filmmaker and proud “Chicana from Chicago” who has dedicated her life and career to rewriting and redefining the image of Latina/os in the mainstream media. Among her most celebrated works are as Co-Writer and Co-Producer of The Bronze Screen: 100 Years of the Latin Image in Hollywood Cinema\, with Susan Racho and Alberto Dominguez\, and as Associate Producer on the feature film Selena.\n\nIn Chicana Fotos\, an exhibit of evocative photographs taken in the 1970s\, we meet a very different Nancy: a woman armed with a camera\, capturing historic events in the struggles for social justice of the time. Nancy’s photographs of Chicano Movement marches and rallies\, farmworker mobilizations in Chicago and Texas\, and Latina organizing in the Midwest and internationally offer a priceless documentary view of Latina/o politics in the 1970s. Her more intimate pictures of everyday Latina/o life capture what it was like to live through a period of radical social transformation. The exhibit includes rare photographs of UFW organizing activities in Chicago\, the Texas Farmworker Pilgrimage of 1977\, and the first ever International Women’s Year Conference in Mexico City in 1975. These images are supplemented by never before exhibited documents from the Walter P. Reuther UFW Collection.\n\nChicana Fotos was curated by University of Michigan professor Maria Cotera (with assistance from Pau Nava) and designed by students and faculty of the UM Stamps School of Art & Design. Stamps School faculty Hannah Smotrich and Katie Rubin co-taught the collaborative\, interdisciplinary Exhibition Design class with students Ian Crowley\, Rachel Dawson\, Emilie Farrugia\, Kelsi Franzino\, Andrew Han\, Jack Hyland\, Maggie Lemak\, Megan Lewin-Smith\, Katie Mongoven\, Olivia Moore\, Pau Nava\, and Sarah Wolf.\n\nChicana Fotos is a collaboration between the El Museo del Norte\, the Chicana por mi Raza Digital Archive\, the Stamps School of Art & Design and the Walter P. Reuther Library at Wayne State University.\n\nThe Walter P. Reuther Library of Labor and Urban Affairs at Wayne State University is the largest labor archive in North America. In addition to internationally significant collections on the history of the North American labor movement\, the Reuther Library holds the official records of Wayne State University\, as well as extensive records documenting urban affairs\, civic life\, civil rights\, ethnic and religious organizations\, and community development across Southeast Michigan.\n\nChicana Fotos was made possible through the generous financial support of the University of Michigan’s Third Century Initiative and the Stamps School of Art & Design. Gallery talk sponsored by the Center for Latina/o and Latin American Studies\, Wayne State University\, and the University of Michigan’s Third Century Initiative.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:SAVING THE PAST FOR THE FUTURE: THE LEGACY OF THE LIBRARY OF ALEXANDRIA
DESCRIPTION:Francesca Schironi\, Associate Professor of Classics at UM\, has worked extensively on Aristarchus of Samothrace (the most important Alexandrian scholar)\, publishing a collection of his fragments and articles on him and Hellenistic scholarship. She also published an edition with commentary of a papyrus lexicon\, a monograph on book-conventions in papyri\, and articles on modern reception of the classics. Her new book on Aristarchus’ work on the Iliad is forthcoming with UM press.\n\nThe lecture will focus on the Library of Alexandria and its legacy\, in ancient times and for us. Prof. Schironi will explain how and why it was founded and discuss a few examples of the work carried out by intellectuals during the Library’s golden age. Alexandrian scholars saved masterpieces of Greek literature for us\, but their legacy goes far beyond that\, and it reminds us why libraries are important and why we should care about them.\n\nThis is the fourth of a six-lecture series. The subject is The Library – Civilization’s Treasure House of Knowledge. The next lecture in the series will be March 23. The Subject is DISCOVERING RADICAL HISTORY IN THE JOSEPH A. LABADIE COLLECTION

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Constructing Gender
DESCRIPTION:Ask U-M students\, alumni\, or fans what symbolizes the University of Michigan\, and you’ll likely hear the Big House\, the Diag\, along with the Michigan Union and the Michigan League. Since they officially opened in 1919 and 1929\, respectively\, the Union and League have been destinations for generations of Wolverines yet few know the rich history of the buildings’ origins or about the architects who brought them both to life: brothers and U-M alums Irving K. and Allen Pond.\n\nThe exhibition\, organized in celebration of the University of Michigan’s bicentennial in 2017\, illuminates the architecture and bustling student life of these iconic buildings using original drawings\, renderings\, photographs\, color studies\, and even dance cards from the Bentley Historical Library\, which serves as the University of Michigan archives. These fascinating documents reveal how the buildings were conceived\, constructed\, and first occupied by students and alumni. Guest curated by Nancy Bartlett of the Bentley Historical Library\, the exhibition reveals how the Ponds meticulously conceived and constructed the two clubs—one for men\, one for women—by weaving ideas about gender and society into the very fabric of the buildings themselves.\n\nLead support for this exhibition is provided by the Herbert W. and Susan L. Johe Endowment.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Ernestine Ruben at Willow Run
DESCRIPTION:In 2013\, artist Ernestine Ruben (BSDEs ’53) photographed the once-famed industrial complex Willow Run in Washtenaw County\, Michigan. Designed by her grandfather\, Detroit architect Albert Kahn\, for the Ford Motor Company\, Willow Run was an exemplar of American defense manufacturing because of its efficient mass-production of B-24 Liberators during World War II.\n\nFor this exhibition\, Ruben overlaid interior views of the now-dormant factory with imagined glimpses into her body’s interior landscape. The resulting compositions seem to breathe energy and light into the stagnant and cavernous spaces of Willow Run and suggest a longing for a productive existence undeterred by mortality for both Willow Run and the artist. Her grandfather’s role in the history of the site underscores Ruben’s personal connection.\n\nThe exhibition presents Ruben’s photographs of Willow Run in UMMA’s Photography Gallery and an original film—co-created by Ruben and video artist Seth Bernstein and featuring an original score by award-winning composer Stephen Hartke—in the Museum’s Forum.\n\nLead support for Ernestine Ruben at Willow Run: Mobilizing Memory is provided by the University of Michigan Office of the Provost and the Herbert W. and Susan L. Johe Endowment.\n\n\n\nLead support for Victors for the Arts: Michigan's Alumni Collectors is provided by the University of Michigan Office of the Provost\, the University of Michigan Health System\, the University of Michigan Office of the President\, the Michigan Council for Arts and Cultural Affairs and the National Endowment for the Arts\, and the University of Michigan Bicentennial Office.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:GOIN’ NORTH: BLACK DETROIT  AND THE  GREAT MIGRATION\,  1910-1930
DESCRIPTION:Summary: \nExhibit of photographs and documents produced by the Michigan Historical Collections in Commemoration of Martin Luther King\, Jr. Day at the University of Michigan\, published 1991.\nBLACK DETROIT AND THE GREAT MIGRATION\n\nSince Norf is up\,\nAn’ Souf is down\,\nAn’ Hebben is up\,\nI’m upward boun’.*\nThey came to Detroit by the thousands from Georgia\, Alabama\, Tennessee\, South Caroline and they stayed. They were part of what historians characterize as a watershed in African American History-the Great Migration. From 1910 to 1930\, hundreds of thousands of Blacks headed North\, leaving the South because of economic hardship\, poor educational opportunities\, and enticed by the lure of better jobs in northern industries and more freedom. Cites in the industrial Northeast and Midwest experienced astounding increases in their Black populations\, but few more so that Detroit\, its institutions and its cultures\, took shape and developed. The problems encountered by the migrants in the form of discrimination and racial animosity were problems with which the city would grapple throughout the decades to follow.\n\nThis exhibit focused on the two major concerns of the migrants\, housing and jobs\, and on the attempts made by various organizations in adjusting to life in Detroit. It is primarily compiled from the holding s of the University of Michigan’s Bentley Historical Library\, particularly the rich collection of the Detroit Urban League. It is also drawn from the Collections of the Detroit Public Library\, the Walter Reuther Collection of the Detroit Public Library\, the Walter Reuther Collection of Labor History and Urban Affairs (Wayne State University)\, the Collections of the Henry Ford Museum and Greenfield Village\, the Detroit News\, and tge Second Baptist Church of Detroit\, Michigan. The exhibit was prepared by Christine Weideman and Karen Jania\, staff members of the Bentley Historical Library.\n\n*From the poem\, “Northboun’” by Lucy Ariel Williams\, printed in Opportunity “: a Journal of Negro Life\, June 1926. The journal was a publication of the National Urban League.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Moving Image: Landscape
DESCRIPTION:Moving Image: Landscape explores traditional notions of landscape through four very different time-based works by artists Jim Campbell\, Antti Laitinen\, Joanie Lemercier\, and Rick Silva.\n\nCampbell’s recent body of work\, including Seal Rock\, presents pixilated images of landscapes created with grids of LEDs. The low-resolution LEDs create a tension between representation and abstraction\, provoking viewers to interpret visual information on their own. In the three-channel video It’s My Island Laitinen builds his own island in the Baltic Sea by dragging two hundred sand bags into the water over a period of three months. The work explores ideas of nationality\, citizenship\, and identity as the artist creates his own single-citizen micro-nation. Lemercier’s computer-generated print Landforms uses patterns of black dots and projected light to create the illusion of three-dimensionality and movement when seen from a distance. The effects are more realistic than a still image\, but still unsettlingly artificial. Silva’s Render Garden explores the digitized landscape\, including remix and glitch aesthetics\, through software that endlessly generates new plant combinations.\n\nThroughout the next year UMMA will present a series of exhibitions drawn from the Borusan Contemporary Art Collection in Istanbul. The Borusan’s thirty-year-old collection includes significant works across a variety of genres\, and since 2011 it has focused on media arts. The works exhibited here address formal concerns such as abstraction and color\, and conceptual topics such as identity or ecological issues\; many represent traditional categories such as portraiture and landscape that find new resonance when explored through the strategies of dynamic technology.\nLead support for this exhibition is provided by the Susan and Richard Gutow Fund\,\nthe Herbert W. and Susan L. Johe Endowment\, and the University of Michigan Institute for the Humanities and Penny W. Stamps School of Art and Design.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Protecting Wisdom: Tibetan Book Covers from the MacLean Collection
DESCRIPTION:Protecting Wisdom: Tibetan Book Covers from the MacLean Collection is the first major exhibition to examine the subject of Tibetan book covers. For Tibetan Buddhists\, books are a divine presence in which the Buddha lives and reveals himself\, and they are venerated and handled with the utmost respect. The exhibition features 33 book covers dating from the eleventh to the eighteenth century that represent the glorious iconographic array and non-figural decoration typical of these sacred items. The majority of covers in the exhibition are Tibetan Buddhist\, but the exhibition also includes a rare Bon-religion cover and two covers from Mongolia\, as well as an important pair of covers produced circa 1411 for the Chinese Ming emperor Yongle. Protecting Wisdom presents a stunning visual display that illuminates a virtually unknown type of art\, one that will charm and intrigue both those familiar and unfamiliar with Tibetan art.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Victors for Art: Michigan's Alumni Collectors–Part I: Figuration
DESCRIPTION:Commemorating the University of Michigan’s 2017 Bicentennial\, Victors for Art: Michigan’s Alumni Collectors celebrates the deep impact of Michigan alumni in the global art world. This two-part exhibition (Part I: Figuration followed by Part II: Abstraction on view July 1– October 29) presents works collected by a diverse group of alumni that represent the breadth of the University and over seventy years of graduating classes. The works themselves are equally diverse\, ranging from ancient sculptures to contemporary multimedia works. Part I: Figuration features works by Henri Matisse\, Elizabeth Louise Vigée Le Brun\, Mark Tansey\, and Mickalene Thomas\, among others\, and allows visitors to explore the variety of artistic responses and purposes encompassed by the term “figuration”. It also offers an unprecedented opportunity to view art that may have never been publicly displayed otherwise—and most certainly\, not all together. For visitors\, and especially for future Michigan alumni\, Victors for Art illuminates the shared passion for art fostered by the Michigan experience.\n\nThis exhibition was organized by Joseph Rosa\, Guest Curator\, in collaboration with Laura De Becker\, Helmut & Candis Stern Associate Curator of African Art\, Jennifer Friess\, Assistant Curator of Photography\, Lehti Mairike Keelman\, Assistant Curator of Western Art\, and Natsu Oyobe\, Curator of Asian Art.\n\nLead support for Victors for the Arts: Michigan's Alumni Collectors is provided by the University of Michigan Office of the Provost\, the University of Michigan Health System\, the University of Michigan Office of the President\, the Michigan Council for Arts and Cultural Affairs and the National Endowment for the Arts\, and the University of Michigan Bicentennial Office.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:Regional Survey and the Study of Social Complexity in 1st Millennium B.C. Colchis (Republic of Georgia)
DESCRIPTION:Colchis is an isolated region in the western part of the Republic of Georgia\, bounded by mountains on the north\, east\, and south sides\, and by the Black Sea on the west. It remained largely peripheral to major Bronze Age cultural phenomena such as the Early Bronze Age Kura-Araxes complex\, the Middle Bronze Age Trialeti complex\, the Late Bronze Age empires of Anatolia and the Near East\, or contemporary developments in South Russia. In the mid-first millennium B.C. a complex society emerged in Colchis\, among whose defining characteristics are rich élite graves\, fine metalwork\, and abundant evidence for interaction with the North Pontic\, Mediterranean\, and Near Eastern worlds. This talk addresses the utility of regional survey as a strategy for examining the development of this society\, focusing on the area around Vani\, a major Colchian site.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Analysis/Probability Learning Seminar
DESCRIPTION:The stochastic localization technique was first used by Eldan in 2012 to show that the optimal constants (with respect to the dimension) in the thin shell conjecture\, and the conjecture by Kannan\, Lovasz\, and Simonovits (KLS) are equivalent up to logarithmic factors. Since then\, it has also found other applications in convex geometry and probability. In particular\, Lee and Vempala used it to improve the best known constant in the KLS conjecture.\n\nThe technique is based on the use of stochastic differential equations and the Ito calculus. In this talk\, I will provide some of the necessary background. Speaker(s): Alon Nishry (University of Michigan)

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:AE585 Seminar | Navigating Unmanned Aerials Vehicles at Low Altitude
DESCRIPTION:The ever-growing applications of Unmanned Aerial Vehicles (UAVs) require UAVs to navigate at low altitude below 2000 feet. Traditionally\, a UAV is equipped with a single GPS receiver. When flying at low altitude\, a single GPS receiver may receive signals from less than four GPS satellites in the partially visible sky\, not sufficient to conduct trilateration. In such a situation\, GPS coordinates become unavailable and the partial GPS information is discarded. A GPS receiver may also suffer from multipath errors\, causing the navigation solution to be inaccurate and unreliable. \n\nIn this talk\, we present our recent work on UAV navigation using not one\, but multiple GPS receivers\, either on the same UAV or across different UAVs fused with other navigational sensors\, such as IMUs and vision. We integrate and take use of the partial GPS information from peer GPS receivers and are able to dramatically improve GPS availability. We apply advanced filtering algorithms to multiple GPS measurements on the same UAV to mitigate multipath errors. Furthermore\, multiple UAVs equipped with on-board communication capabilities can cooperate by forming a UAV network to further improve navigation accuracy\, reliability and security.\n\n \n\nAbout the speaker… \n\nGrace Xingxin Gao is an assistant professor in the Aerospace Engineering Department at University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign. She obtained her Ph.D. degree in Electrical Engineering from the GPS Laboratory at Stanford University in 2008. Before joining Illinois at Urbana-Champaign as an assistant professor in 2012\, Prof. Gao was a research associate at Stanford University. \n\nProf. Gao has won a number of awards\, including RTCA William E. Jackson Award and Institute of Navigation Early Achievement Award. She was named one of 50 GNSS Leaders to Watch by the GPS World Magazine. She has won Best Paper/Presentation of the Session Awards 11 times at ION GNSS+ conferences. She received Dean's Award for Excellence in Research from College of Engineering\, University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign. For her teaching\, Prof. Gao has been on the List of Teachers Ranked as Excellent by Their Students at University of Illinois multiple times. She won the College of Engineering Everitt Award for Teaching Excellence at University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign in 2015. She was chosen as American Institute of Aeronautics and Astronautics (AIAA) Illinois Chapter’s Teacher of the Year in 2016.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Economic Development: Environmental externalities and intrahousehold inefficiencies
DESCRIPTION:Abstract\n\nWhen consumption generates negative externalities\, the preferred policy solution is to set a price that reflects the social cost of consumption. In some cases – for example\, household water and electricity use – consumption is susceptible to a second externality problem: each individual enjoys the private benefits of consumption but shares the costs with other household members\, leading to overconsumption even from the household's viewpoint. We test the prediction that intrahousehold inefficiency dampens price sensitivity in the context of water use in Zambia\, combining billing records\, randomized price variation\, and lab-experimental measures of intrahousehold efficiency. We find that households with above-median measures of intrahousehold efficiency have a short-run price elasticity of -0.49\, while those with below-median efficiency have an elasticity of -0.17. These results suggest that the required Pigouvian price when usage is billed at the household level\, yet own and other household members' consumption is difficult to observe\, will need to be set to correct both the environmental and the intrahousehold externalities. Alternative policies such as price incentives targeted toward the primary water-using household members or access to real-time data on household water consumption (which would improve the enforceability of intrahousehold agreements) could also be useful.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:EEB Thursday Seminar: Plant phylogenomics: comparative analyses of plant genes and genomes
DESCRIPTION:Abstract\nPhylogenetic frameworks for species relationships and gene families are becoming increasingly essential for organization and analysis of the avalanche of sequence data that has come with development of massively parallel sequencing technologies. Sequence clustering approaches such as OrthoMCL are providing approximations of gene families. Phylogenetic analyses of these gene family clusters are yielding improved understanding of species relationships and new insights into gene and genome evolution. I will illustrate the utility of low copy gene families for estimating species relationships and how resulting species tree inferences serve as a framework for inferring the evolution of multi-copy gene families and whole genomes. For example\, a phylogenomic framework has been used to resolve the timing of known and previously unknown paleopolyploidy events in angiosperm history. Moreover\, understanding the timing of paleopolyploidy events allows us to test hypothesized links between polyploidy\, diversification and the origin of novel traits.\n\nLight refreshments served at 4 p.m.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Law & Economics: The Price of Moral Rights: A Field Experiment
DESCRIPTION:Abstract\n\nU.S. intellectual property law is firmly rooted in utilitarian principles. Copyright law is viewed as a means to give proper monetary incentives to authors for their creative effort. Many European copyright systems pursue additional goals: Authors have the right to be named as author\, to control alterations and to retract their work in case their artistic beliefs have changed. Protecting these “moral rights” might be justified by the preferences of typical authors. We present the first field experiment on moral rights revealing the true valuation of these rights by over 200 authors from 24 countries. A majority of authors are not willing to trade moral rights in the first place. They demand substantial prices in case they decide to trade. The differences between authors from the U.S. and Europe are small. These results call into question whether moral rights protection should differ across the Atlantic and whether a purely profit based theory of copyright law is sufficient to capture the complex relationship between human behavior and creativity.

Williams led the team that worked to save their lives – and emerged with a new drive to confront violence and racism. \nOn March 23\, he’ll share his story with leaders\, scholars and community members from U-M and southeastern Michigan\, at a special symposium on violent interactions between law enforcement and black Americans. \nThe event will take a look at the public health impacts of such interactions -- as well as the historical and current factors that play into it. It’s designed to bring people from many fields together to work toward solutions by joining action teams that will continue their work after the event is over.\nRSVPs are now being accepted for the symposium\, which will run from 6 to 9 p.m. in the Auditorium  of the School of Public Health II building at 1420 Washington Heights. Light refreshments will be served. \nThe event was organized by Washtenaw County’s Public Health and Sheriff’s departments\; U-M’s Department of Internal Medicine\, Office of Diversity\, Equity and Inclusion\, School of Public Health\, Institute for Research on Women and Gender\, and Students of Color of Rackham\; as well as Eastern Michigan University and My Brother’s Keeper-Washtenaw County. \nIn addition to Williams\, the event will feature a panel of speakers that includes the Washtenaw County sheriff\, a former state representative\, and a U-M professor and postdoctoral fellow – with a Wayne State University leader acting as moderator. \nThe event will explore how individuals can advocate for social justice\, anti-bias reforms\, and community building\, how community mobilization be used as a strategy to promote social cohesion and community-level advocacy for safer environments for all\, and potential strategies to address the upstream and downstream factors resulting in violent interactions between law enforcement and blacks. \nThe event is free and open to the public. Community members\, students\, public policy and health professionals\, social scientists\, legislators\, and law enforcement are especially encouraged to attend.\nRSVP at http://bit.ly/SymposiumRSVP

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:WINTER 2017 COMMUNICATION & MEDIA SPEAKER SERIES Bio-Brand in the Blacking Factory
DESCRIPTION:This talk examines key emulative economies of branding\, commodification\, and acquisitive desire as powerful regimes of racial governance within contemporary material cultures. Within a wider neoliberal context marked by everyday encroachments of “the market\,” indeed\, as the neoliberal self is inexorably configured as brand and personhood as enterprise\, this project tracks the operations of a “blacking factory” where formations of blackness and its intersectional orders of difference are produced\, performed\, marketed\, and consumed. Taking a single brand icon\, the Cadillac\, as its case\, the talk parses the industrial relations of manufacture that produce blackness as “bio-brand” within enduringly raced and gendered circuits of market value and vastly profitable economies of status and stigma. Highlighting densely mediated social practices of articulation\, performance\, assessment\, and authentication\, where the technologies of the racial self\, always on the move\, entangle and embed the formidable biopolitical discipline of material cultures\, my point is to consider the lubricating allure of blackness as well as its stigmatizing force as exemplary sites of biopolitical manufacture\, shaping\, and themselves shaped by\, the racial orders of acquisitive desire and advancement as well as brutal adjudications of suffering and vulnerability\, each geared to the general wellbeing of the population.\n\nRoopali Mukherjee is Associate Professor of Media Studies at the City University of New York/Queens College. She writes on issues of race within contemporary public culture in the US. She is the author of The Racial Order of Things: Cultural Imaginaries of the Post-Soul Era (UMinn 2006) and co-editor of Commodity Activism: Cultural Resistance in Neoliberal Times (NYU 2012). Her forthcoming works include the book\, The Blacking Factory: Material Culture and the Technologies of the Racial Self\, and the co-edited anthology\, Race Post-Race: Culture\, Critique and the Color Line (Duke UP).

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:Ctirad Uher\, C. Wilbur Peters Collegiate Professorship in Physics\, Inaugural Lecture
DESCRIPTION:Some 60-70% of energy used in industrial processes is wasted as heat that pollutes the environment. Capturing and converting this waste heat into electricity via thermoelectric energy conversion would make a tremendous impact on our overall energy use as well as on the environment. This purely solid state means of energy conversion uses charge carriers as a working fluid and requires no moving parts\, which makes the process exceptionally reliable. Thermoelectricity has enabled deep space explorations as a sole source of on board electrical energy and is currently intensely explored for a variety of terrestrial power generation applications. To make it broadly applicable\, the efficiency of thermoelectric materials must be improved. Some of the most prospective families of thermoelectric materials will be discussed and a wide range of possible applications illustrated.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:Saya Woolfalk: World Builder
DESCRIPTION:According to The Huffington Post\, Saya Woolfalk “doesn’t create artworks\, she creates worlds.” A New York-based artist who uses science fiction and fantasy to re-imagine societies and manufacture immersive\, multimedia environments\, Woolfalk’s work is highly narrative in nature.

Her work is highly collaborative\, and her captivating installations include projects with dancers\, animators\, filmmakers\, and musicians. With the multiyear projects No Place\, The Empathics\, and ChimaTEK\, Woolfalk has created the world of the Empathics\, a fictional race of women who are able to alter their genetic makeup and fuse with plants. Woolfalk has exhibited broadly in the world’s top contemporary art centers including PS1 MoMA\; Museum of Contemporary Art\, Chicago\; and Studio Museum\, Harlem\, to name a few.\n\nSupported by the University of Michigan Museum of Art\, the University of Michigan Institute for Humanities\, and Chelsea River Gallery.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:27th David W. Belin Lecture: \"The Shrinking Jewish Middle\, and Its Implications for Jewish Communal Policy\"
DESCRIPTION:Professor Cohen will argue that the number of middle-aged non-Orthodox Jews who are engaged in Jewish life is poised to drop sharply in the next 20-40 years. And\, absent significant policy changes\, their numbers will continue to drop for years to come.\n\nHe will argue that low rates of marriage and births\, along with high rates of intermarriage among American Jews are generating a  shrinkage of what may be termed the “Jewish Middle.” The \"Jewish Middle\" encompasses Jews located in the central region of the Jewish identity spectrum\, approximately those identifying as Conservative\, Reform and Reconstructionist.\n\nEffective policies need to achieve the following outcomes:\n* Bring down the average age at marriage.\n* Increase the rate of inmarriage.\n* Raise the fertility rate of non-Orthodox Jews.\n* Encourage more non-Jewish spouses of Jews to see themselves as Jews.\n\n\nSteven M. Cohen is Research Professor of Jewish Social Policy at HUC-JIR\, and Director of the Berman Jewish Policy Archive at Stanford University. In 1992 he made aliyah\, and taught at The Hebrew University\, having previously taught at Queens College\, Yale\, and JTS. \n\nAmong his books are The Jew Within (with Arnold Eisen)\, Two Worlds of Judaism: The Israeli and American Experience (with Charles Liebman)\, and Sacred Strategies: Transforming Synagogues from Functional to Visionary (with Isa Aron\, Lawrence Hoffman and Ari Kelman\, Isa Aron\, Lawrence A. Hoffman. He was the lead researcher on the Jewish Community Study of New York: 2011\, and consultant to the Pew studies of American Jews and Israeli society.\n\nProf. Cohen received an honorary doctorate from the Spertus Institute of Jewish Studies\, the Marshall Sklare Award\, and a National Jewish Book Award. He serves as president of the Association for the Social Scientific Study of Jewry.\n\nIf you have a disability that requires a reasonable accommodation\, contact the Judaic Studies office at 734-763-9047 at least two weeks prior to the event.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:Dr. Berj H. Haidostian Annual Distinguished Lecture | From Orphan to Citizen: The Debate over Education at the City of Orphans. Alexandropol/Leninakan\, 1919-1929
DESCRIPTION:As Russian Armenia became host to thousands of orphans who crossed the border from Western Armenia\, the Near East Relief (NER) offered to take on the responsibility for their needs\, and by 1921\, soon after Armenia had been Sovietized\, it had collected most of the children in Alexandropol. There\, 20\,000 to 25\,000 children resided in former Russian barracks that had once housed the Tsar’s Cossack\, Dragoon and Artillery Regiments.\n\nThe City of Orphans\, as the barracks were known in the West\, was dubbed The Largest Orphanage in the World\, whose orphan population constituted more than 50% of the total number of Armenian orphans NER cared for in the region. In sheer numbers\, they represented a significant percentage of the future citizens of Soviet Armenia\, which they were to rebuild once they left the orphanage\, armed with the education and skills learned under NER’s tutelage.\n\nYet while NER and Soviet authorities extended courtesies to each other\, especially in the first half of the 1920s\, they disagreed increasingly and more sharply after Lenin’s death on the type of citizen that should emerge from the doors of the City of Orphans and on the agency that would control their rite of passage from orphan to citizen. Would\, or could\, NER educate them as the bearers of an Armenian legacy redefined through Bolshevism\, proudly marching toward a socialist state\, or\, were they to be educated as the loyal harbingers of American values capable of leading Armenia toward a progressive American way of life?\n\nNora Nercessian is Retired Professor\, Department of Fine Arts\, Harvard University\; Assistant Dean and Associate Dean of Administration\, Harvard Medical School\; Advisor to the Board\, The Children of Armenia Fund (COAF). She is the author of Worthy of the Honor (1995) and Against All Odds (2004)\n\nSee the lecture website here: http://ii.umich.edu/asp/news-events/all-events/haidostian-annual-lectures/2017-haidostian-annual-distinguished-lecture.html

SUMMARY:Meeting:UM Psychology Community Talk with Dr. Ioulia Kovelman
DESCRIPTION:The Bilingual Learner: Language\, Literacy\, and Brain Development \n\nThe rise in global migration results in ever-growing numbers of bilingual and multilingual speakers. Among them is a growing number of bilingual children. On the one hand\, we marvel at the ease with which young children master new languages. On the other hand\, we fear that learning more than one language may delay children’s language acquisition. Questions commonly asked by parents\, teachers\, and clinicians include: Are bilingual infants delayed in learning to speak? Are bilingual children delayed in learning to read? Do bilinguals confuse their two languages? In this talk\, we will address the common myths about bilingual children’s language and literacy acquisition. We will also discuss the implications of bilingualism for children’s cognitive and brain development as well as best strategies for learning languages for children and adults.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:MAS Lecture | \"Let It Be Well Done:\" A Curduroy Remnant of Hull's Trace in Brownstown\, Michigan
DESCRIPTION:The Michigan Archaeological Society invites you to a free lecture at the Kelsey Museum of Archaeology.\n\nHull's Trace: In the desperate summer of 1812\, General William Hull\, at the head of over two thousand troops\, blazed a 200-mile supply road from Urbana\, Ohio to Detroit\, Michigan. The route\, known as “Hull’s Trace\,” crossed the Huron River near the Wyandot village of Brownstown.\n\nWhile much of the route is still in use\, time and human progress have all but eradicated the “traces of the Trace.” Daniel Harrison\, a historical archaeologist\, tells the story of the only known surviving remnant of the original roadway. As an archaeological site\, it sheds historical light on this little-known but crucial episode in the struggle for control of the Old Northwest.\n\nTo learn more about the Michigan Archaeological Society\, visit: http://www.miarch.org/

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Banner Moments: The National Anthem in American Life
DESCRIPTION:The new Ford Presidential Library lobby exhibit\, curated by University of Michigan musicologist Mark Clague\, illustrates through interpretive panels\, historical documents and photographs\, the cultural 200-year history of “The Star-Spangled Banner” (1814–2014). The tale that emerges demonstrates the power of music and poetry to spark the social imagination and thus create a sense of shared community.\n\nInspired by the successful defense of Baltimore\, Maryland from British attack in September 1814\, lawyer and amateur poet Francis Scott Key penned his now famous lyric. Rather than extraordinary\, Key’s creative impulse was typical of early America’s broadside ballad tradition in which new words were written to fit well known tunes. The result\, however\, was far from everyday—Key could not have predicted that his song would survive the moment\, yet become his nation’s singular anthem.\n\nFollow the “The Star-Spangled Banner” from the moments leading up to September 14\, 1814 through the present day and explore the social history of our national song.\nMarch 2017 to September 2017 \n\nMonday - Friday. 8:45 am - 4:45 pm\nClosed all Federal holidays.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Another Country
DESCRIPTION:The scenes in Another Country emerge from daily images of conflict and uprising. Discarded shoes\, tarps and handmade signs that mark the post-industrial landscape become part roadside memorial and part doomsday prophecy. These temporary sculptures - set against the backdrop of environmental decline - evoke a cautionary tale of hazmat crews and oil soaked shorelines. \n\nIf there is a place for both apathy and active resistance in the way forward to a better future\, Another Country carries the tension that’s in-between. Inspired by the visual resistance of liberation parties\, past and present\, it urges us to remember why we fight.\n\nShanna Merola is an artist\, activist\, and documentary photographer. Working for civil rights attorneys\, she photographs first amendment activity at protests and facilitates workshops on best practices during police encounters. Over the past five years she has been a human rights observer for social justice movements across the country - from the deeply embattled struggle over water rights in Detroit and Flint\, Michigan - to the frontlines of uprisings in Ferguson\, MO and Standing Rock\, ND. Her collages and constructed landscapes are informed by these rallies - from direct actions against fracking companies to the privatization of water both globally and locally. She is currently working on a collaborative production of Know Your Rights Theatre\, inspired by the politically radical puppet troupes of the 1960’s.\n\nMerola received an MFA in Photography from Cranbrook Academy of Art and a BFA in Photo and Film from Virginia Commonwealth University. She lives and works in Detroit\, Michigan.

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:Chicana Fotos: Nancy De Los Santos
DESCRIPTION:Exhibition Dates: Friday\, February 17 - April 14\, 2017\nOpening Reception: Friday\, February 17\, 2017 from 4 - 7 pm\, featuring a performance by Ballet Folklórico De Detroit at 6 pm.\nGallery Talk by Nancy De Los Santos and exhibition curator Maria Cotera: Friday\, February 17\, 2017 at 12 pm\, Walter P. Reuther Library Woodcock Conference Room\nWalter P. Reuther Library at Wayne State University\n5401 Cass Ave\, Detroit\, MI 48202\n\nBorn and raised in Chicago by Mexican-American parents\, Nancy De Los Santos is an accomplished filmmaker and proud “Chicana from Chicago” who has dedicated her life and career to rewriting and redefining the image of Latina/os in the mainstream media. Among her most celebrated works are as Co-Writer and Co-Producer of The Bronze Screen: 100 Years of the Latin Image in Hollywood Cinema\, with Susan Racho and Alberto Dominguez\, and as Associate Producer on the feature film Selena.\n\nIn Chicana Fotos\, an exhibit of evocative photographs taken in the 1970s\, we meet a very different Nancy: a woman armed with a camera\, capturing historic events in the struggles for social justice of the time. Nancy’s photographs of Chicano Movement marches and rallies\, farmworker mobilizations in Chicago and Texas\, and Latina organizing in the Midwest and internationally offer a priceless documentary view of Latina/o politics in the 1970s. Her more intimate pictures of everyday Latina/o life capture what it was like to live through a period of radical social transformation. The exhibit includes rare photographs of UFW organizing activities in Chicago\, the Texas Farmworker Pilgrimage of 1977\, and the first ever International Women’s Year Conference in Mexico City in 1975. These images are supplemented by never before exhibited documents from the Walter P. Reuther UFW Collection.\n\nChicana Fotos was curated by University of Michigan professor Maria Cotera (with assistance from Pau Nava) and designed by students and faculty of the UM Stamps School of Art & Design. Stamps School faculty Hannah Smotrich and Katie Rubin co-taught the collaborative\, interdisciplinary Exhibition Design class with students Ian Crowley\, Rachel Dawson\, Emilie Farrugia\, Kelsi Franzino\, Andrew Han\, Jack Hyland\, Maggie Lemak\, Megan Lewin-Smith\, Katie Mongoven\, Olivia Moore\, Pau Nava\, and Sarah Wolf.\n\nChicana Fotos is a collaboration between the El Museo del Norte\, the Chicana por mi Raza Digital Archive\, the Stamps School of Art & Design and the Walter P. Reuther Library at Wayne State University.\n\nThe Walter P. Reuther Library of Labor and Urban Affairs at Wayne State University is the largest labor archive in North America. In addition to internationally significant collections on the history of the North American labor movement\, the Reuther Library holds the official records of Wayne State University\, as well as extensive records documenting urban affairs\, civic life\, civil rights\, ethnic and religious organizations\, and community development across Southeast Michigan.\n\nChicana Fotos was made possible through the generous financial support of the University of Michigan’s Third Century Initiative and the Stamps School of Art & Design. Gallery talk sponsored by the Center for Latina/o and Latin American Studies\, Wayne State University\, and the University of Michigan’s Third Century Initiative.

How do our methods reflect the intended and unintended audiences of a work\, and how do they inform our interpretations? What do our readings include\, and what do they exclude? In this conference\, we aim to reflect on and reconsider our roles as readers\, as well as the educational and political implications of our reading practices. \n\nCLIFF is organized entirely by graduate students in the Department of Comparative Literature at the University of Michigan\, Ann Arbor. It has been the central event of our department since its inception in 1996. With its dedication to interdisciplinarity and intellectual rigor\, it embodies the values that form the basis of Comparative Literature. Each year\, the conference brings together faculty and graduate students across different institutions\, disciplines and fields of interest\, in order to facilitate a productive and meaningful dialogue on that year’s theme

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Constructing Gender
DESCRIPTION:Ask U-M students\, alumni\, or fans what symbolizes the University of Michigan\, and you’ll likely hear the Big House\, the Diag\, along with the Michigan Union and the Michigan League. Since they officially opened in 1919 and 1929\, respectively\, the Union and League have been destinations for generations of Wolverines yet few know the rich history of the buildings’ origins or about the architects who brought them both to life: brothers and U-M alums Irving K. and Allen Pond.\n\nThe exhibition\, organized in celebration of the University of Michigan’s bicentennial in 2017\, illuminates the architecture and bustling student life of these iconic buildings using original drawings\, renderings\, photographs\, color studies\, and even dance cards from the Bentley Historical Library\, which serves as the University of Michigan archives. These fascinating documents reveal how the buildings were conceived\, constructed\, and first occupied by students and alumni. Guest curated by Nancy Bartlett of the Bentley Historical Library\, the exhibition reveals how the Ponds meticulously conceived and constructed the two clubs—one for men\, one for women—by weaving ideas about gender and society into the very fabric of the buildings themselves.\n\nLead support for this exhibition is provided by the Herbert W. and Susan L. Johe Endowment.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Ernestine Ruben at Willow Run
DESCRIPTION:In 2013\, artist Ernestine Ruben (BSDEs ’53) photographed the once-famed industrial complex Willow Run in Washtenaw County\, Michigan. Designed by her grandfather\, Detroit architect Albert Kahn\, for the Ford Motor Company\, Willow Run was an exemplar of American defense manufacturing because of its efficient mass-production of B-24 Liberators during World War II.\n\nFor this exhibition\, Ruben overlaid interior views of the now-dormant factory with imagined glimpses into her body’s interior landscape. The resulting compositions seem to breathe energy and light into the stagnant and cavernous spaces of Willow Run and suggest a longing for a productive existence undeterred by mortality for both Willow Run and the artist. Her grandfather’s role in the history of the site underscores Ruben’s personal connection.\n\nThe exhibition presents Ruben’s photographs of Willow Run in UMMA’s Photography Gallery and an original film—co-created by Ruben and video artist Seth Bernstein and featuring an original score by award-winning composer Stephen Hartke—in the Museum’s Forum.\n\nLead support for Ernestine Ruben at Willow Run: Mobilizing Memory is provided by the University of Michigan Office of the Provost and the Herbert W. and Susan L.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:GOIN’ NORTH: BLACK DETROIT  AND THE  GREAT MIGRATION\,  1910-1930
DESCRIPTION:Summary: \nExhibit of photographs and documents produced by the Michigan Historical Collections in Commemoration of Martin Luther King\, Jr. Day at the University of Michigan\, published 1991.\nBLACK DETROIT AND THE GREAT MIGRATION\n\nSince Norf is up\,\nAn’ Souf is down\,\nAn’ Hebben is up\,\nI’m upward boun’.*\nThey came to Detroit by the thousands from Georgia\, Alabama\, Tennessee\, South Caroline and they stayed. They were part of what historians characterize as a watershed in African American History-the Great Migration. From 1910 to 1930\, hundreds of thousands of Blacks headed North\, leaving the South because of economic hardship\, poor educational opportunities\, and enticed by the lure of better jobs in northern industries and more freedom. Cites in the industrial Northeast and Midwest experienced astounding increases in their Black populations\, but few more so that Detroit\, its institutions and its cultures\, took shape and developed. The problems encountered by the migrants in the form of discrimination and racial animosity were problems with which the city would grapple throughout the decades to follow.\n\nThis exhibit focused on the two major concerns of the migrants\, housing and jobs\, and on the attempts made by various organizations in adjusting to life in Detroit. It is primarily compiled from the holding s of the University of Michigan’s Bentley Historical Library\, particularly the rich collection of the Detroit Urban League. It is also drawn from the Collections of the Detroit Public Library\, the Walter Reuther Collection of the Detroit Public Library\, the Walter Reuther Collection of Labor History and Urban Affairs (Wayne State University)\, the Collections of the Henry Ford Museum and Greenfield Village\, the Detroit News\, and tge Second Baptist Church of Detroit\, Michigan. The exhibit was prepared by Christine Weideman and Karen Jania\, staff members of the Bentley Historical Library.\n\n*From the poem\, “Northboun’” by Lucy Ariel Williams\, printed in Opportunity “: a Journal of Negro Life\, June 1926. The journal was a publication of the National Urban League.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Moving Image: Landscape
DESCRIPTION:Moving Image: Landscape explores traditional notions of landscape through four very different time-based works by artists Jim Campbell\, Antti Laitinen\, Joanie Lemercier\, and Rick Silva.\n\nCampbell’s recent body of work\, including Seal Rock\, presents pixilated images of landscapes created with grids of LEDs. The low-resolution LEDs create a tension between representation and abstraction\, provoking viewers to interpret visual information on their own. In the three-channel video It’s My Island Laitinen builds his own island in the Baltic Sea by dragging two hundred sand bags into the water over a period of three months. The work explores ideas of nationality\, citizenship\, and identity as the artist creates his own single-citizen micro-nation. Lemercier’s computer-generated print Landforms uses patterns of black dots and projected light to create the illusion of three-dimensionality and movement when seen from a distance. The effects are more realistic than a still image\, but still unsettlingly artificial. Silva’s Render Garden explores the digitized landscape\, including remix and glitch aesthetics\, through software that endlessly generates new plant combinations.\n\nThroughout the next year UMMA will present a series of exhibitions drawn from the Borusan Contemporary Art Collection in Istanbul. The Borusan’s thirty-year-old collection includes significant works across a variety of genres\, and since 2011 it has focused on media arts. The works exhibited here address formal concerns such as abstraction and color\, and conceptual topics such as identity or ecological issues\; many represent traditional categories such as portraiture and landscape that find new resonance when explored through the strategies of dynamic technology.\nLead support for this exhibition is provided by the Susan and Richard Gutow Fund\,\nthe Herbert W. and Susan L. Johe Endowment\, and the University of Michigan Institute for the Humanities and Penny W. Stamps School of Art and Design.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Protecting Wisdom: Tibetan Book Covers from the MacLean Collection
DESCRIPTION:Protecting Wisdom: Tibetan Book Covers from the MacLean Collection is the first major exhibition to examine the subject of Tibetan book covers. For Tibetan Buddhists\, books are a divine presence in which the Buddha lives and reveals himself\, and they are venerated and handled with the utmost respect. The exhibition features 33 book covers dating from the eleventh to the eighteenth century that represent the glorious iconographic array and non-figural decoration typical of these sacred items. The majority of covers in the exhibition are Tibetan Buddhist\, but the exhibition also includes a rare Bon-religion cover and two covers from Mongolia\, as well as an important pair of covers produced circa 1411 for the Chinese Ming emperor Yongle. Protecting Wisdom presents a stunning visual display that illuminates a virtually unknown type of art\, one that will charm and intrigue both those familiar and unfamiliar with Tibetan art.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Victors for Art: Michigan's Alumni Collectors–Part I: Figuration
DESCRIPTION:Commemorating the University of Michigan’s 2017 Bicentennial\, Victors for Art: Michigan’s Alumni Collectors celebrates the deep impact of Michigan alumni in the global art world. This two-part exhibition (Part I: Figuration followed by Part II: Abstraction on view July 1– October 29) presents works collected by a diverse group of alumni that represent the breadth of the University and over seventy years of graduating classes. The works themselves are equally diverse\, ranging from ancient sculptures to contemporary multimedia works. Part I: Figuration features works by Henri Matisse\, Elizabeth Louise Vigée Le Brun\, Mark Tansey\, and Mickalene Thomas\, among others\, and allows visitors to explore the variety of artistic responses and purposes encompassed by the term “figuration”. It also offers an unprecedented opportunity to view art that may have never been publicly displayed otherwise—and most certainly\, not all together. For visitors\, and especially for future Michigan alumni\, Victors for Art illuminates the shared passion for art fostered by the Michigan experience.\n\nThis exhibition was organized by Joseph Rosa\, Guest Curator\, in collaboration with Laura De Becker\, Helmut & Candis Stern Associate Curator of African Art\, Jennifer Friess\, Assistant Curator of Photography\, Lehti Mairike Keelman\, Assistant Curator of Western Art\, and Natsu Oyobe\, Curator of Asian Art.\n\nLead support for Victors for the Arts: Michigan's Alumni Collectors is provided by the University of Michigan Office of the Provost\, the University of Michigan Health System\, the University of Michigan Office of the President\, the Michigan Council for Arts and Cultural Affairs and the National Endowment for the Arts\, and the University of Michigan Bicentennial Office.

SUMMARY:Well-being:Mindfulness@Umich
DESCRIPTION:Mindfulness@Umich is a program that is available to all University of Michigan students\, faculty\, and staff. The sessions are 30 minutes long\, flexible\, and free.\n\nThe sessions are led by a group of students and staff who have received training to lead the 30 minute sessions. They also have personal practices.The meditations are guided (which means there will be speaking throughout the meditation) and they ​last ​for 25 minutes. We typically sit in chairs. We often end the practice with a short metta or gratitude meditation. At the very end of the session\, we'll spend a few minutes talking about issues that may have arisen in your meditation\, recent research\, or ways to practice outside of the session.\n\nEmail dkozikow@umich.edu to be added to the Mindfulness list!

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:ASP Workshop | Rescue or Internment? Orphans of the Armenian Genocide
DESCRIPTION:By the end of World War I\, an estimated number of 150\,000 children were orphaned as the direct result of the Armenian Genocide. From Egypt to Greece\, Syria\, Turkey\, and into the Caucasus\, the child survivors became the subject of local\, national\, and international ‘rescue’ missions. This workshop seeks to highlight the multi-faceted experience of orphans during and after the war\, expanding on the discussion of Nora Nercessian’s new book\, The City of Orphans: Relief Workers\, Commissars\, and the ‘Builders of the New Armenia’ Alexandropol/ Leninakan 1919–1931. Nercessian diligently and meticulously researched the history of one of the largest orphanages near Alexandropol (now Gyumri).\n\nThe workshop will use the unique case of the City of Orphans to open a broader discussion addressing the utility of orphans and orphanages as subjects of historical analysis. How may we use the study of orphans and their institutionalization to challenge otherwise linear narratives of post-war nation-building and rehabilitation? If practices and processes internal to the orphanages were to forge proper citizens\, how was citizenship understood\, defined and negotiated? How did adults mitigate the rift between experiences of trauma and war\, with hopeful narratives of the future? What were the mechanisms of making sense of the violent past? How does ‘childhood’ survive in spaces of confinement that serve ideologically informed state\, society or international benevolent projects? Were orphanages places of rescue or of internment\, and how do we comprehend the historical agency of the ‘rescued’ and/or ‘interned’?” \n    \nThe workshop will be followed by the screening of the film – After this Day\, directed by Nigol Bezjian.\n\nOrganizer: Melanie Tanielian\, Assistant Professor of History\, U-M

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Applied Interdisciplinary Mathematics
DESCRIPTION:Graph-based variational methods have recently shown to be highly competitive for various classification problems of high-dimensional data\, but are inherently difficult to handle from an optimization perspective. In this talk\, we will describe a convex relaxation for a certain set of graph-based multiclass data segmentation problems\, featuring region homogeneity terms\, supervised information and/or certain constraints or penalty terms acting on the class sizes. Particular applications include semi-supervised classification of high-dimensional data and unsupervised segmentation of unstructured 3D point clouds. Theoretical analysis indicates that the convex relaxation closely approximates the original NP-hard problems\, and these observations are also confirmed experimentally. An efficient duality based algorithm is developed that handles all constraints on the labeling function implicitly. Experiments on semi-supervised classification indicate consistently higher accuracies than related local minimization approaches\, and considerably so when the training data are not uniformly distributed among the data set. The accuracies are also highly competitive against a wide range of other established methods on three benchmark datasets. Experiments on 3D point clouds acquired by a LaDAR in outdoor scenes\, demonstrate that the scenes can accurately be segmented into object classes such as vegetation\, the ground plane and human-made structures.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:HET Seminar | Heavy Flavor Baryon Oscillations and Baryogenesis
DESCRIPTION:I discuss CP violating oscillations of neutral baryons into anti-baryons\, and propose an experimentally allowed  and conceivably  testable scenario where some heavy flavored baryons oscillate at rates which are within a few orders of magnitude of their lifetimes\, while the flavor structure of the baryon violation suppresses neutron oscillations and baryon violating nuclear decays. I describe a scenario for producing such baryons in the early universe via the out of equilibrium decays of a neutral particle\, after the hadronization temperature but before nucleosynthesis\, and the prospects for baryogenesis.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Combinatorics
DESCRIPTION:Generalized permutahedra are a beautiful family of polytopes with a rich combinatorial structure. We explore the Hopf algebraic structure of this family. We then use this structure to unify old results\, prove new results\, and answer open questions about many objects of interest\, such as graphs\, matroids\, posets\, trees\, set partitions\, building sets\, hypergraphs\, and simplicial complexes. In particular\, we shed new light on the basic problem of inverting a power series.\n\nThe talk will be based on joint work with Marcelo Aguiar\, and will assume no previous knowledge of Hopf algebras or generalized permutahedra.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:Dorr Lecture: Erosion Rates and Climate from the Cosmogenic Nuclide Perspective
DESCRIPTION:The importance of climate in regulating erosion and weathering rates remains surprisingly controversial.  While there is little doubt that extreme climates matter--erosion is slow in hyperarid deserts and rapid in glaciated terrain--the variability of erosion in more temperate climate regimes remains difficult to constrain.  Over the past 15 years cosmogenic nuclides have been used to measure erosion rates in a variety of settings around the globe\, leading to the broad conclusion that climate is far less important than previously assumed.  More recently\, however\, time series of paleo-erosion rates measured with cosmogenic nuclides have shown significant changes in erosion rate across glacial-interglacial transitions at mid-latitudes.  These newer studies point to changes in physical erosion processes that enhance erosion in cold climates beyond the ice margin.  I will present a synthesis of paleo-erosion rates measured at sites from a variety of climate regimes\, showing that climatic effects are important at mid-latitudes but subtle in other parts of the world.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:CSAS Lecture Series | Technicolor Transnationalism: Film Technology between Hollywood and Bombay in the 1950s
DESCRIPTION:In the 1920s\, Florence Burgess Meehan\, scouring shooting locations in South Asia\, wrote in American Cinematographer that\, “the Orient receives the cameraman gladly and warmly . . . it loves the moving pictures and that ‘gifted child of the gods’ who carries a Bell and Howell is all but revered in most places.” In their print advertisements over the next decades\, Western camera companies put this talismanic conception of film technology to good use. At the same time\, India in particular served as a limit to Western technological capacity\, so that any cameras that could survive the climate became imbued with a kind of ineluctable mobility. Cameramen were seen as attendants to this wondrous technology\, intrepid explorers braving the unknown dangers of the “mystic East.” This paper locates Technicolor cinematography’s postwar introduction into the Indian Subcontinent within this longer tradition as well as burgeoning Indo-American relations at the outset of the geopolitical conflicts that would define the world of the 1950s and beyond. Relying on extensive archival research\, this paper excavates the filming of these early color films and offers a comparative account of the distribution of foreign expertise and technology in Bombay film production. Even as Hollywood-Bombay relations in the early 1950s exceeded conventional Cold War mentalities\, concerns about the wellbeing of foreign film personnel and problematic assumptions about the aptitude of “native” technical talent belied the easy translations assumed by the promoters of cinema trade.\n\nNitin Govil is Associate Professor of Cinema and Media Studies in the School of Cinematic Arts at the University of Southern California. His books include Orienting Hollywood: A Century of Film Culture between Los Angeles and Bombay (2015) and the coauthored Global Hollywood (2001)\, Global Hollywood 2 (2005)\, and the forthcoming Indian Film Industry. His writing has been translated into Chinese\, Portuguese\, Spanish\, and Turkish. He is currently working on two books: a co-authored textbook on global media and a project on Indian cinema and postwar transnational film called Out of Alignment: Bombay Film Culture and the Cold War.\n\nCosponsored by the Departments of Communication Studies and Screen Arts and Cultures.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Student AIM Seminar
DESCRIPTION:The leading renewable energy sources suffer from inconsistent production levels.  Solar panels don't generate power at night or during cloudy days and winds turbines rely on unpredictable weather.  This is a major disadvantage compared to fossil fuels\, which can be burned on demand.  The answer is engineering better energy storage materials that will provide a buffer between the production and consumption.  \n\nElectronic structure\, governed by the Schrodinger equation\, is one of the key determinants of a material's energy storage performance.  Oftentimes physical experiments are expensive\, time consuming\, or difficult to perform and must be complemented with numerical simulations.  Question: how many bytes are required to store the wavefunction of a 10 electron system on a small 10x10x10 grid?  Spoiler: way too many!  In this talk I will present an alternative formulation of quantum mechanics called Density Functional Theory and discuss practical numerical methods for electronic structure simulations.   Speaker(s): Nathan Vaughn (University of Michigan)

SUMMARY:Film Screening:ASP Film Screening | After this Day
DESCRIPTION:This documentary revisits the stories of orphans and orphanages born out of the Armenian Genocide of 1915\, particularly the orphanage of Antoura in Lebanon\, where children were sent to be Turkified under the order of Jamal Pasha. The children experienced horrific circumstances\, but this is ultimately a true story of how many endured to tell their stories of survival and death-defying courage. Bezjian uncovers how the children held onto their Armenian faith and language\, while defying Pasha’s aims of destroying all vestiges of Armenian identity. \n    \nFor the first time\, the film brings together prominent Armenian and Turkish historians Vahé Tashjian and Dr. Selim Deringil to discuss and explore the history of Armenian orphans and orphanages that resulted from the Armenian Genocide.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:Musicology Lecture: Prof. Stephanie Jordan (RE-SCHEDULED FROM 2/17)
DESCRIPTION:For a dance historian\, analyst\, or musicologist writing about dance\, what are the implications of knowing about artists’ working processes?  In this presentation\, Jordan will begin by revisiting interviews she conducted for her 2015 book Mark Morris: Musician-Choreographer.  Morris has taken a variety of approaches to music\, such that his “choreomusical” styles and strategies have helped dancers and audiences to hear musical scores in new ways.  Recent studies of the practices of other contemporary choreographers reveal an intensification in the sharing of “process information.” To illustrate this intensification and its results\, Jordan draws from recent choreomusical analyses\, as well as interviews with other choreographers.  Her research raises a number of questions about how to negotiate a way through the conflicting values and terminologies of interviewers and interviewees\, and the mix of rational choices and instinctive decision-making in the creative artistic process.  For Jordan\, the “genetic” information in the process can be invaluable to a general understanding of dance\, while potentially enriching the analysis of individual dances.  Asking what sort of relationship might\, or might not\, exist between the genesis of a work and its final form\, she also brings into play musicologist Nicolas Marston’s theory of “dangerous liaisons.”

SUMMARY:Performance:Elizabeth Cook
DESCRIPTION:Songwriter and XM radio Outlaw Country\" host Elizabeth Cook is the creator of some of the toughest\, most emotionally honest country/new Southern songwriting work of the last decade. If you like Jason Isbell\, come and check out Elizabeth Cook! Last year this Grand Ole Opry regular released a new album\, \"Exodus of Venus\,\" and it might have been something of a shock. “There hasn’t been a lot to laugh about\,” confesses the effervescent songwriter who once penned “It Takes Balls To Be A Woman” with equal parts Dolly Parton pluck and Loretta Lynn brio. What hasn't changed is the honesty and emotional depth of one of Nashville's most serious and fearless artists. A songwriter who doesn't release new material until she has something to say\, Elizabeth Cook always offers an evening of music that will leave you thinking about it long afterward. East Nashville–based songwriter and satirist Darrin Bradbury opens.

SUMMARY:Conference / Symposium:CLIFF 2017: Undisciplined Readings: Rethinking Practices and Methods
DESCRIPTION:Keynote: March 17 5:30-7pm Rackham Assembly Hall\n\nHow do we read texts\, films and other objects? How do our methods reflect the intended and unintended audiences of a work\, and how do they inform our interpretations? What do our readings include\, and what do they exclude? In this conference\, we aim to reflect on and reconsider our roles as readers\, as well as the educational and political implications of our reading practices. \n\nCLIFF is organized entirely by graduate students in the Department of Comparative Literature at the University of Michigan\, Ann Arbor. It has been the central event of our department since its inception in 1996. With its dedication to interdisciplinarity and intellectual rigor\, it embodies the values that form the basis of Comparative Literature. Each year\, the conference brings together faculty and graduate students across different institutions\, disciplines and fields of interest\, in order to facilitate a productive and meaningful dialogue on that year’s theme

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:Constructing Gender
DESCRIPTION:Ask U-M students\, alumni\, or fans what symbolizes the University of Michigan\, and you’ll likely hear the Big House\, the Diag\, along with the Michigan Union and the Michigan League. Since they officially opened in 1919 and 1929\, respectively\, the Union and League have been destinations for generations of Wolverines yet few know the rich history of the buildings’ origins or about the architects who brought them both to life: brothers and U-M alums Irving K. and Allen Pond.\n\nThe exhibition\, organized in celebration of the University of Michigan’s bicentennial in 2017\, illuminates the architecture and bustling student life of these iconic buildings using original drawings\, renderings\, photographs\, color studies\, and even dance cards from the Bentley Historical Library\, which serves as the University of Michigan archives. These fascinating documents reveal how the buildings were conceived\, constructed\, and first occupied by students and alumni. Guest curated by Nancy Bartlett of the Bentley Historical Library\, the exhibition reveals how the Ponds meticulously conceived and constructed the two clubs—one for men\, one for women—by weaving ideas about gender and society into the very fabric of the buildings themselves.\n\nLead support for this exhibition is provided by the Herbert W. and Susan L. Johe Endowment.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Ernestine Ruben at Willow Run
DESCRIPTION:In 2013\, artist Ernestine Ruben (BSDEs ’53) photographed the once-famed industrial complex Willow Run in Washtenaw County\, Michigan. Designed by her grandfather\, Detroit architect Albert Kahn\, for the Ford Motor Company\, Willow Run was an exemplar of American defense manufacturing because of its efficient mass-production of B-24 Liberators during World War II.\n\nFor this exhibition\, Ruben overlaid interior views of the now-dormant factory with imagined glimpses into her body’s interior landscape. The resulting compositions seem to breathe energy and light into the stagnant and cavernous spaces of Willow Run and suggest a longing for a productive existence undeterred by mortality for both Willow Run and the artist. Her grandfather’s role in the history of the site underscores Ruben’s personal connection.\n\nThe exhibition presents Ruben’s photographs of Willow Run in UMMA’s Photography Gallery and an original film—co-created by Ruben and video artist Seth Bernstein and featuring an original score by award-winning composer Stephen Hartke—in the Museum’s Forum.\n\nLead support for Ernestine Ruben at Willow Run: Mobilizing Memory is provided by the University of Michigan Office of the Provost and the Herbert W. and Susan L. Johe Endowment.\n\n\n\nLead support for Victors for the Arts: Michigan's Alumni Collectors is provided by the University of Michigan Office of the Provost\, the University of Michigan Health System\, the University of Michigan Office of the President\, the Michigan Council for Arts and Cultural Affairs and the National Endowment for the Arts\, and the University of Michigan Bicentennial Office.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Moving Image: Landscape
DESCRIPTION:Moving Image: Landscape explores traditional notions of landscape through four very different time-based works by artists Jim Campbell\, Antti Laitinen\, Joanie Lemercier\, and Rick Silva.\n\nCampbell’s recent body of work\, including Seal Rock\, presents pixilated images of landscapes created with grids of LEDs. The low-resolution LEDs create a tension between representation and abstraction\, provoking viewers to interpret visual information on their own. In the three-channel video It’s My Island Laitinen builds his own island in the Baltic Sea by dragging two hundred sand bags into the water over a period of three months. The work explores ideas of nationality\, citizenship\, and identity as the artist creates his own single-citizen micro-nation. Lemercier’s computer-generated print Landforms uses patterns of black dots and projected light to create the illusion of three-dimensionality and movement when seen from a distance. The effects are more realistic than a still image\, but still unsettlingly artificial. Silva’s Render Garden explores the digitized landscape\, including remix and glitch aesthetics\, through software that endlessly generates new plant combinations.\n\nThroughout the next year UMMA will present a series of exhibitions drawn from the Borusan Contemporary Art Collection in Istanbul. The Borusan’s thirty-year-old collection includes significant works across a variety of genres\, and since 2011 it has focused on media arts. The works exhibited here address formal concerns such as abstraction and color\, and conceptual topics such as identity or ecological issues\; many represent traditional categories such as portraiture and landscape that find new resonance when explored through the strategies of dynamic technology.\nLead support for this exhibition is provided by the Susan and Richard Gutow Fund\,\nthe Herbert W. and Susan L. Johe Endowment\, and the University of Michigan Institute for the Humanities and Penny W. Stamps School of Art and Design.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Protecting Wisdom: Tibetan Book Covers from the MacLean Collection
DESCRIPTION:Protecting Wisdom: Tibetan Book Covers from the MacLean Collection is the first major exhibition to examine the subject of Tibetan book covers. For Tibetan Buddhists\, books are a divine presence in which the Buddha lives and reveals himself\, and they are venerated and handled with the utmost respect. The exhibition features 33 book covers dating from the eleventh to the eighteenth century that represent the glorious iconographic array and non-figural decoration typical of these sacred items. The majority of covers in the exhibition are Tibetan Buddhist\, but the exhibition also includes a rare Bon-religion cover and two covers from Mongolia\, as well as an important pair of covers produced circa 1411 for the Chinese Ming emperor Yongle. Protecting Wisdom presents a stunning visual display that illuminates a virtually unknown type of art\, one that will charm and intrigue both those familiar and unfamiliar with Tibetan art.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Victors for Art: Michigan's Alumni Collectors–Part I: Figuration
DESCRIPTION:Commemorating the University of Michigan’s 2017 Bicentennial\, Victors for Art: Michigan’s Alumni Collectors celebrates the deep impact of Michigan alumni in the global art world. This two-part exhibition (Part I: Figuration followed by Part II: Abstraction on view July 1– October 29) presents works collected by a diverse group of alumni that represent the breadth of the University and over seventy years of graduating classes. The works themselves are equally diverse\, ranging from ancient sculptures to contemporary multimedia works. Part I: Figuration features works by Henri Matisse\, Elizabeth Louise Vigée Le Brun\, Mark Tansey\, and Mickalene Thomas\, among others\, and allows visitors to explore the variety of artistic responses and purposes encompassed by the term “figuration”. It also offers an unprecedented opportunity to view art that may have never been publicly displayed otherwise—and most certainly\, not all together. For visitors\, and especially for future Michigan alumni\, Victors for Art illuminates the shared passion for art fostered by the Michigan experience.\n\nThis exhibition was organized by Joseph Rosa\, Guest Curator\, in collaboration with Laura De Becker\, Helmut & Candis Stern Associate Curator of African Art\, Jennifer Friess\, Assistant Curator of Photography\, Lehti Mairike Keelman\, Assistant Curator of Western Art\, and Natsu Oyobe\, Curator of Asian Art.\n\nLead support for Victors for the Arts: Michigan's Alumni Collectors is provided by the University of Michigan Office of the Provost\, the University of Michigan Health System\, the University of Michigan Office of the President\, the Michigan Council for Arts and Cultural Affairs and the National Endowment for the Arts\, and the University of Michigan Bicentennial Office.

SUMMARY:Conference / Symposium:Pop Art Comes to Michigan\, 1963
DESCRIPTION:In 1963\, the University of Michigan Museum of Art hosted two pioneering exhibitions of Pop Art. At that time the concept of Pop Art was under construction\, and its subjects—consumer culture\, food and other appetites\, technology and the mass media\, the Cold War\, women’s roles—were live issues at the university. This program showcases artists whose work was too raw or unusual to become part of the later art-world canon\, revising historical understanding of the early 1960s and opening a window into creative life at the university.\n\nThroughout the program\, digital reproductions of works from the 1963 exhibitions and related works on paper will be on display in the Commons and in the cases outside Stern Auditorium.\n\n12-2:50 PM: Professor Rebecca Zurier (University of Michigan) will open the event by exploring the origins of the 1963 Pop Art exhibition. The art historian Michael Lobel (Hunter College) will speak on \"Defining Pop: Exhibitions\, Circulation\, and the Makings of an Art Movement\,\" and David McCarthy (Rhodes College) will discuss \"Peter Saul Against Pop Art.\" \n\n3-5 PM: Alumnae Michele Oka Doner (artist) and Miriam Levin (Case Western Reserve University)–whose minds were blown by the art they saw in the 1963 exhibitions–will join moderator Alexander Potts (University of Michigan) for a group discussion. \n \nThis Bicentennial LSA Theme Semester event is presented with support from the Bicentennial Office\; College of Literature\, Science\, and the Arts\; Eisenberg Institute for Historical Studies\; History\; History of Art\; Institute for the Humanities\; Office of Research\; Rackham Graduate School\; and University of Michigan Museum of Art.

SUMMARY:Presentation:Pop Art Comes to Michigan\, 1963
DESCRIPTION:The U-M History of Art Department celebrates the Bicentennial with this symposium featuring renowned artist and U-M alumna Michele Oka Doner\, and History of Art faculty Alex Potts\, and Rebecca Zurier.\nThis symposium explores the art historical and cultural significance of two pioneering exhibitions of Pop Art\, held at the University of Michigan Museum of Art in 1963. In those years the concept of Pop was under construction. Subjects addressed in the art— consumer culture\, food and other appetites\, technology and the mass media\, the Cold War\, women’s roles—were live issues at the University. By showcasing artists whose work was too raw or unusual to become part of the later canon\, this event helps revise historical understanding of the early 1960s and opens a window into creative life at the University. The symposium will include presentations by noted art historians\, followed by a discussion with alumni whose minds were blown as art students at time of the exhibitions.\n\nThis LSA Bicentennial Theme Semester event is presented with support from the U-M College of Literature\, Science\, and the Arts\, the University of Michigan Bicentennial Office\, and the U-M History of Art Department. Additional support provided by the Department of History\, the Eisenberg Institute for Historical Studies\, and the University of Michigan Museum of Art.
