SUMMARY:Exhibition:Gifts of Art presents Toy Robots Past & Present
DESCRIPTION:Elaine Reed has been collecting toy robots for over 30 years. As a painter herself\, she appreciates the artistic design & futuristic ideas that robots awaken in people. As a child\, television programs like Lost in Space\, The Jetsons & Star Trek inspired Reed to dream large and wish for a real robot of her own. Although she doesn’t own any real live robots\, some of her best friends are robots. At the University of Michigan Health System\, Reed works as a Bedside Artist for the Gifts of Art program and as an artist at the Turner Senior Resource Center.

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:Workshop / Seminar:Family Reading and Science Program Workshop
DESCRIPTION:Humans are collectors by nature and we have been doing it for a very long time! We love accumulating things that we find pretty\, interesting or useful. In this workshop you will get introduced to the sometimes odd and unusual variety of collections from the past that are used in current research.  A myriad of mollusks\, a sundry of sand\, an army of algae or a tower of tusks might be some of the surprising things people have collected and we use in research today. Come try out some hands-on labs to discover why these unusual time capsules from the past are so important to our scientific knowledge today.\n\nThis is a free event but registration is required.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Gifts of Art presents Blossom by Blossom: Elvish Ceramics
DESCRIPTION:Gabrielle Soltis creates works from the Gyldenstjerne Porcelain Company lineage. The story goes that sometime in the early 1700s\, a young Danish nobleman by the name of Einar Gyldenstjerne fell in love and married an Elvish woman named Gwyneira (surname unknown) who shared the family recipe for how to create hard-paste porcelain. The first items produced by the company are dated to 1715. Soltis’ porcelain flowers in this tradition are assembled meticulously petal by petal. She studied ceramics at the College for Creative Studies in Detroit\, Michigan and is interested in European history and fiction.

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:Here and There
DESCRIPTION:\"Here and There\"  looks at the problems of extreme poverty\, and includes artist Tracey Snelling's signature piece \"One Thousand Shacks.\" New works--created on campus during her three-week residency--will examine these issues in the US\, how they relate to location and\, at times\, the disenfranchisement of large groups of people for the sake of big business\, political clout\, and power. \n\nCurator's Statement:\n\nTo meet artist Tracey Snelling evokes the sensation of a strong willed breeze determined to open a backyard door. \n\nAs an artist and person\, she is down to earth\, direct\, contemporary\, and moving through it all with volition. \n\nSnelling’s artistic practice originally focused on photography as a medium\, but soon evolved to include her construction of sculptures based upon cities and towns\, strip malls and urban housing. \n\nShe refers to her three dimensional work as sculptural rather than diorama or model making because she isn’t particularly interested in the exact rendering of location\, or the contextualization of place. Instead\, she taps into the energy of community and its humanness—restless\, frenetic\, din\, a choir\, extending beyond the confines of walls. \n\nSnelling’s representations are neither judgmental nor opportunistic. They unaffectedly and objectively offer a multidimensional sketch of a place in time\, how we occupy space. \n\nHer signature piece \"One Thousand Shacks\" (included in this exhibition along with new work created during her her residency here) pushes up against the challenges of economic inequalities\, racial biases\, and imposed class divisions that often limit the options available to so many people. Concurrently\, the installation embraces our everyday existence expressed through Snelling’s exuberant palette\, bold graphics\, video and neon. \n\nConceptually\, Snelling’s stacking method first creates an exalted “big picture” with a myriad of colors\, image\, text\, sound and light. The counterpoint in scale soon immerses the viewer into each small world. With this shift\, the onlooker becomes the active participant\, the occupant in situ\, adding the trappings of their own experiences to each tableau. It is this shift that forces the viewer into a new way of seeing from varying perspectives.\n\nOn the one hand\, the artist’s sculptures allude to our desire for refuge\, a private domain that allows us to be ourselves. On the other\, the overall composition reaffirms it is imperative that we co-exist with one another respectfully\, forge relationships\, understanding our marked differences. It is diversity—the unique and often disparate combination of things\, the cacophony of it all\, that activates communities and public space.\n\nSnelling’s constructions literally build a way out\, one on top of another\, charged with the undercurrent of the way we live. They emphasize our universal longing to find a place called home\, and be accepted\, built on the foundation of one and of many. \n–Amanda Krugliak\, Arts Curator\, Institute for the Humanities\n\nAbout Tracey Snelling:\nThrough the use of sculpture\, photography\, video\, and large-scale installation\, Tracey Snelling gives her impression of a place\, its people and their experience. Often\, the cinematic image stands in for real life as it plays out behind windows in the buildings\, sometimes creating a sense of mystery\, other times stressing the mundane. Snelling’s work derives from voyeurism\, film noir\, and geographical and architectural location. Within this idea of location\, themes develop that transport observation into the realm of storytelling\, with reality and sociological study being the focus. Snelling had exhibited in international galleries\, museums and institutions\, including the The Royal Museum of Fine Arts\, Belgium\; Palazzo Reale\, Milan\; Museum of Arts and Design\, New York\; Kunstmuseen Krefeld Germany\; El Museo de Arte de Banco de la Republica\, Bogota\; the Stenersen Museet\, Oslo\, and the Sundance Film Festival. Her short films have screened at the San Francisco International Film Festival\, the Thessaloniki International Film Festival\, Circuito Off in Venice\, Italy\, and the Arquiteturas Film Festival Lisboa in Portugal. She also received a 2015 Joan Mitchell Painters and Sculptors Grant. Snelling lives and works in Oakland\, California and Berlin\, Germany.

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

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.

DESCRIPTION:Movses Pogossian made his American debut performing the Tchaikovsky Concerto with the Boston Pops at Symphony Hall in 1990\, about which Richard Dyer of the Boston Globe wrote: “There is freedom in his playing\, but also taste and discipline. It was a fiery\, centered\, and highly musical performance…” Pogossian has since performed with orchestras such as the Brandenburger Symphoniker and the Halle Philharmonic in Germany\, the Sudety Philharmonic in Poland\, the Tucson Symphony\, the El Paso Symphony\, the Scandinavian Chamber Orchestra of New York\, and the Toronto Sinfonia. His recent and upcoming performances include recitals in New York\, Boston\, Ann Arbor\, and concerts in Korea\, Japan\, Germany\, Armenia\, and Cyprus.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Group\, Lie and Number Theory
DESCRIPTION:For an elliptic curve E over the rationals\, the Birch--Swinnerton-Dyer conjecture predicts that (a) the rank of the Mordell--Weil group E(Q) equals the order of vanishing at s=1 of the L-function L(E\,s) and that (b) the leading non-zero Taylor series coefficient of L(E\,s) around s=1 is given by a formula in terms of objects associated with E (such as the order of its Tate-Shafarevich group\, etc).  This talk will explain the strategy and ingredients in recent proofs of the p-part of (b) for most odd primes p when the curve E has analytic rank 0 or 1 (so (a) is also known).

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Social\, Behavioral & Experimental Economics (SBEE): Procrastination in the Field: Evidence from Tax Filing
DESCRIPTION:Abstract:\nThis paper attempts to identify present-biased procrastination in tax filing behavior. Our exercise uses dynamic discrete choice techniques to develop a counterfactual benchmark for filing behavior under the assumption of exponential discounting. Deviations between this counterfactual benchmark and actual behavior provide potential ‘missing-mass’ evidence of present bias. In a sample of around 22\,000 low-income tax filers we demonstrate substantial deviations between exponentially-predicted and realized behavior\, particularly as the tax deadline approaches. Present biased preferences not only provide qualitatively better in-sample fit than exponential discounting\, but also have improved out-of-sample predictive power for responsiveness of filing times to the 2008 Economic Stimulus Act recovery payments. Additional experimental data from around 1100 individuals demonstrates a link between experimentally measured present bias and deviations from exponential discounting in tax filing behavior.

Assuming that imaginings are representational states\, I begin by clarifying the sense in which imaginings\, in purporting to represent a world\, are like beliefs. I show that an ‘imaginative project’—the overall mental activity we engage in when we imagine—includes\, in addition to imaginings\, a different kind of mental state\, whose role is to posit\, to some degree of determinacy\, an imaginary world in which the imagined propositions are true or false. I call this mental state ‘design-assumption.’ Distinguishing between imaginings and design-assumptions\, I argue that when we engage in an imaginative project\, we make a specific design-assumption according to which if we imagine a proposition\, then it is true in the imaginary world that we believe\, from the first-person perspective\, that proposition. I then show that positing these imaginary beliefs allows us to explain how a version of Moore’s paradox applies to imaginings. I close by discussing various implications of my account of imagining.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:Conversations on Europe. Security Crises: Extreme Nationalism and Threats to Democracy in Europe
DESCRIPTION:Since the sovereign debt crisis hit Europe in 2010\, there has been a resurgence of right or extreme nationalist parties in virtually every former Western European country and in some Eastern European countries. Analysts at first viewed these “minor” upticks as a passing sign of fringe voter discontent. The move to the right did not go away and has gained momentum even in countries such as Social Democratic Sweden where the idea of a right nationalist party polling at 25% would have been unthinkable even a year ago. The combination of ongoing financial crisis and the current migration crisis appears to be a harbinger of unspecified disaster—if the EU cannot come up with policies soon that adjudicate these dual crises. Many commentators and some academics have argued that this right nationalist resurgence signals a return of the politics of the 1930s. This talk takes on these issues and addresses the ways in which that assessment is plausible. \n\nMabel Berezin is a professor of sociology at Cornell who writes on challenges to democratic cohesion and solidarity in Europe and the United States. She is the author of \"Illiberal Politics in Neoliberal Times: Culture\, Security\, and Populism in the New Europe\" (Cambridge 2009) and \"Making the Fascist Self: The Political Culture of Inter-war Italy\" (Cornell 1997). She has lectured widely in Europe and the US and is working on a book-length manuscript on the resurgence of extreme nationalism in contemporary Europe.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Geometry & Physics
DESCRIPTION:The conifold transition for the conormal bundle of a knot in S^3 is a non-compact non-exact Lagrangian in the resolved conifold. When the knot is a torus knot\, one can define open Gromov-Witten invariants for the resulting Lagrangian via localization. I will describe how topological recursion on the mirror curve predicts these invariants. When the knot is an unknot\, this mirror symmetry reduces to the BKMP remodeling conjecture for an Aganagic-Vafa brane in the resolved conifold. This talk is based on the joint work with Zhengyu Zong. Speaker(s): Bohan Fang (Beijing International Center for Mathematical Science)

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:HEP-Astro Seminar | Shining Light on the Hidden Pathways of Galaxy Transformation
DESCRIPTION:The morphological and color bimodalities displayed by modern-day galaxies suggest that a galaxy must have rapidly transformed from one class to the other. In the modern universe\, this transition is one-way\, which makes it essential to gain a census of initial conditions capable of catalyzing this metamorphosis. Classical searches that capture transitioning galaxies via signatures of intermediate-aged stars and lack of nebular ionized gas emission exclude the very gas physics that are often fundamental to understanding the galaxy’s transition. I will present the Shocked POststarburst Galaxy Survey (SPOGS)\, a novel method for finding previously-missed transitioning galaxies using their ionized gas line ratios. I will discuss early results suggesting my SPOGS criterion pinpoints objects at an earlier phase of transformation\, when more signs of transition triggers still exist. Our exquisite case study\, NGC1266\, demonstrates the success of this method. These new observations shed light on the fundamental role gas plays in the ultimate quenching and transformation of a galaxy.

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 III of this lecture we focus further on Kuperberg's approach using statistical mechanics.  Speaker(s): Thomas Bothner (University of Michigan)

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:Pentagon Midwest: Military Research and the Making of the University of Michigan
DESCRIPTION:U-M’s scholarly excellence in the sciences and engineering owes much to its Cold War ties to the US military. But excellence came with a price: a set of ethical challenges that by the late 1960s threatened to fracture the university community. Bringing together historians and participants in those debates\, this forum explores the history and ethics of U-M’s ties to the national security state. \n\nPanelists include: David Chudwin (alumnus\, University of Michigan)\, Salem Elzway (University of Michigan)\, Joy Rohde (University of Michigan)\, Paul Rubinson (Bridgewater State University)\, Thomas Senior (University of Michigan)\, Ernest P. Young (University of Michigan).\n\nPresented in conjunction with the program in Science\, Technology\, and Society. This 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.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Student Combinatorics Seminar
DESCRIPTION:It is well known that irreducible representations of the symmetric group are parameterized by partitions. There are also representations of the symmetric group corresponding to skew partitions\, but they are reducible. Using ideas from topological quantum field theory\, we extend the symmetric group action on skew partitions to an affine symmetric group action. Moreover\, the skew partition representations are irreducible for the affine symmetric group action. Speaker(s): Daniel Barter (University of Michigan)

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Group\, Lie and Number Theory
DESCRIPTION:Fix a number field K of degree n over the rationals\, and a prime p\, and consider the p-torsion subgroup of the class group of K. How big is it? It is conjectured that this p-torsion subgroup should be very small (in an appropriate sense)\, relative to the absolute discriminant of the field\; this relates to the Cohen-Lenstra heuristics and various other arithmetic problems. So far it has proved extremely difficult even to beat the trivial bound\, that is\, to show that the p-torsion subgroup is noticeably smaller than the full class group. In 2007\, Ellenberg and Venkatesh shaved a power off the trivial bound by assuming GRH. This talk will discuss several new\, contrasting\, methods that recover this bound for almost all members of certain families of fields\, without assuming GRH. This includes recent joint work with Jordan Ellenberg\, Melanie Matchett Wood\, and Caroline Turnage-Butterbaugh.\n Speaker(s): Lillian Pierce (Duke University)

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:Penny Stamps Speaker Series presents:
DESCRIPTION:Through the use of sculpture\, photography\, video\, and large-scale installation\, Tracey Snelling gives her impression of a place\, its people and their experience. Often\, the cinematic image stands in for real life as it plays out behind windows in the buildings\, sometimes creating a sense of mystery\, other times stressing the mundane. Snelling’s work derives from voyeurism\, film noir\, and geographical and architectural location. Within this idea of location\, themes develop that transport observation into the realm of storytelling\, with reality and sociological study being the focus. Snelling had exhibited in international galleries\, museums and institutions\, including the The Royal Museum of Fine Arts\, Belgium\; Palazzo Reale\, Milan\; Museum of Arts and Design\, New York\; Kunstmuseen Krefeld Germany\; El Museo de Arte de Banco de la Republica\, Bogota\; the Stenersen Museet\, Oslo\, and the Sundance Film Festival. Her short films have screened at the San Francisco International Film Festival\, the Thessaloniki International Film Festival\, Circuito Off in Venice\, Italy\, and the Arquiteturas Film Festival Lisboa in Portugal. She also received a 2015 Joan Mitchell Painters and Sculptors Grant. Snelling lives and works in Oakland\, California and Berlin\, Germany.\n\nA Penny Stamps Speaker Series presentation in partnership with the Institute for the Humanities and co-sponsored by the University of Michigan Museum of Art.

DESCRIPTION:Special Event: Monday\, March 20\, 5:10 PM at UMMA\nHelmut Stern Auditorium\, 525 S State St\, Ann Arbor\n\nThrough the use of sculpture\, photography\, video\, and large-scale installation\, Tracey Snelling gives her impression of a place\, its people and their experience. Snelling states\, “Driving down the street at night\, I look at the lit windows of the houses that I pass\, and I wonder who lives there. What is taking place behind that drawn window shade?” Inspired by voyeurism\, film noir\, geographical locations\, and architecture\, Snelling’s work transforms sociological observation into the realm of storytelling. Snelling has exhibited internationally\, including the The Royal Museum of Fine Arts\, Belgium\; Palazzo Reale\, Milan\; Museum of Arts and Design\, New York\; and the Sundance Film Festival. Her short films have shown at the San Francisco International Film Festival\, the Thessaloniki International Film Festival\, Circuito Off in Venice\, Italy\, and the Arquiteturas Film Festival Lisboa. She received a 2015 Joan Mitchell Painters and Sculptors Grant.\n\nPresented in partnership with the University of Michigan Institute for Humanities. Tracey Snelling’s presentation will be followed by an exhibition opening at the Institute for the Humanities.

SUMMARY:Reception / Open House:Opening Reception for Tracey Snelling exhibition\, \"Here and There\"
DESCRIPTION:Join us immediately following Tracey Snelling's Stamps lecture for an opening reception with the artist.\n\nAbout the exhibition and artist:\n\n\"Here and There\" examines the similarities\, differences\, and struggles that exist in the US as well as abroad. With nearly half the world's population living in poverty\, and over 1.5 billion people living in extreme poverty\, this continues to be one of the main challenges of our time. With my installation One Thousand Shacks\, I look at the problems of extreme poverty\, as well as the strength\, tenacity\, and ingenuity that is demonstrated in the struggle to survive. New works will examine these issues in the US\, how they relate to location and\, at times\, the disenfranchisement of large groups of people for the sake of big business\, political clout\, and power. \n\n\nBio:\nThrough the use of sculpture\, photography\, video\, and large-scale installation\, Tracey Snelling gives her impression of a place\, its people and their experience. Often\, the cinematic image stands in for real life as it plays out behind windows in the buildings\, sometimes creating a sense of mystery\, other times stressing the mundane. Snelling’s work derives from voyeurism\, film noir\, and geographical and architectural location. Within this idea of location\, themes develop that transport observation into the realm of storytelling\, with reality and sociological study being the focus. Snelling had exhibited in international galleries\, museums and institutions\, including the The Royal Museum of Fine Arts\, Belgium\; Palazzo Reale\, Milan\; Museum of Arts and Design\, New York\; Kunstmuseen Krefeld Germany\; El Museo de Arte de Banco de la Republica\, Bogota\; the Stenersen Museet\, Oslo\, and the Sundance Film Festival. Her short films have screened at the San Francisco International Film Festival\, the Thessaloniki International Film Festival\, Circuito Off in Venice\, Italy\, and the Arquiteturas Film Festival Lisboa in Portugal. She also received a 2015 Joan Mitchell Painters and Sculptors Grant. Snelling lives and works in Oakland\, California and Berlin\, Germany.

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:Here and There
DESCRIPTION:\"Here and There\"  looks at the problems of extreme poverty\, and includes artist Tracey Snelling's signature piece \"One Thousand Shacks.\" New works--created on campus during her three-week residency--will examine these issues in the US\, how they relate to location and\, at times\, the disenfranchisement of large groups of people for the sake of big business\, political clout\, and power. \n\nCurator's Statement:\n\nTo meet artist Tracey Snelling evokes the sensation of a strong willed breeze determined to open a backyard door. \n\nAs an artist and person\, she is down to earth\, direct\, contemporary\, and moving through it all with volition. \n\nSnelling’s artistic practice originally focused on photography as a medium\, but soon evolved to include her construction of sculptures based upon cities and towns\, strip malls and urban housing. \n\nShe refers to her three dimensional work as sculptural rather than diorama or model making because she isn’t particularly interested in the exact rendering of location\, or the contextualization of place. Instead\, she taps into the energy of community and its humanness—restless\, frenetic\, din\, a choir\, extending beyond the confines of walls. \n\nSnelling’s representations are neither judgmental nor opportunistic. They unaffectedly and objectively offer a multidimensional sketch of a place in time\, how we occupy space. \n\nHer signature piece \"One Thousand Shacks\" (included in this exhibition along with new work created during her her residency here) pushes up against the challenges of economic inequalities\, racial biases\, and imposed class divisions that often limit the options available to so many people. Concurrently\, the installation embraces our everyday existence expressed through Snelling’s exuberant palette\, bold graphics\, video and neon. \n\nConceptually\, Snelling’s stacking method first creates an exalted “big picture” with a myriad of colors\, image\, text\, sound and light. The counterpoint in scale soon immerses the viewer into each small world. With this shift\, the onlooker becomes the active participant\, the occupant in situ\, adding the trappings of their own experiences to each tableau. It is this shift that forces the viewer into a new way of seeing from varying perspectives.\n\nOn the one hand\, the artist’s sculptures allude to our desire for refuge\, a private domain that allows us to be ourselves. On the other\, the overall composition reaffirms it is imperative that we co-exist with one another respectfully\, forge relationships\, understanding our marked differences. It is diversity—the unique and often disparate combination of things\, the cacophony of it all\, that activates communities and public space.\n\nSnelling’s constructions literally build a way out\, one on top of another\, charged with the undercurrent of the way we live. They emphasize our universal longing to find a place called home\, and be accepted\, built on the foundation of one and of many. \n–Amanda Krugliak\, Arts Curator\, Institute for the Humanities\n\nAbout Tracey Snelling:\nThrough the use of sculpture\, photography\, video\, and large-scale installation\, Tracey Snelling gives her impression of a place\, its people and their experience. Often\, the cinematic image stands in for real life as it plays out behind windows in the buildings\, sometimes creating a sense of mystery\, other times stressing the mundane. Snelling’s work derives from voyeurism\, film noir\, and geographical and architectural location. Within this idea of location\, themes develop that transport observation into the realm of storytelling\, with reality and sociological study being the focus. Snelling had exhibited in international galleries\, museums and institutions\, including the The Royal Museum of Fine Arts\, Belgium\; Palazzo Reale\, Milan\; Museum of Arts and Design\, New York\; Kunstmuseen Krefeld Germany\; El Museo de Arte de Banco de la Republica\, Bogota\; the Stenersen Museet\, Oslo\, and the Sundance Film Festival. Her short films have screened at the San Francisco International Film Festival\, the Thessaloniki International Film Festival\, Circuito Off in Venice\, Italy\, and the Arquiteturas Film Festival Lisboa in Portugal. She also received a 2015 Joan Mitchell Painters and Sculptors Grant. Snelling lives and works in Oakland\, California and Berlin\, Germany.

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:Health\, History\, Demography & Development (H2D2): Extending the Social Safety Net: How poor households react the receipt of spousal pensions
DESCRIPTION:Abstract:\n\nAs a result of a 1991 change in legislation\, rural Brazilian households were no longer limited to receiving only one pension per household as they were under the previous regime. Accordingly\, the fraction of rural households receiving multiple pensions via a spouse increased by nearly 20 percentage points. In this paper\, we examine the effect this sudden increase in spousal pensions had on household labor supply. Our results suggest that male heads of household significantly and substantially reduced their labor supply in response to receipt of pensions by their female spouses\, however the effect was short-lived. These findings offer insight into the extent to which the unitary model of household behavior is useful as an explanatory tool.

SUMMARY:Presentation:Biopsychology Colloquium Talk - Caught in peculiar positions: Variation in the mechanisms of monogamy
DESCRIPTION:ABSTRACT: Individual variation in social behavior seems ubiquitous\, but we know little about how it relates to brain diversity. Among monogamous prairie voles\, vasopressin receptor (avpr1a) levels in brain regions related to spatial memory predict male space-use and sexual fidelity in the field. We find that trade-offs between the benefits of male fidelity and infidelity are reflected in patterns of territorial intrusion\, offspring paternity\, avpr1a expression and the evolutionary fitness of alternative avpr1a alleles. DNA variation at the avpr1a locus includes polymorphisms that reliably predict the epigenetic status and neural expression of avpr1a\, while patterns of DNA diversity demonstrate avpr1a regulatory variation has been favored by selection. In prairie voles\, trade-offs in the fitness consequences of social behaviors seem to promote neuronal and molecular diversity.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:LRCCS Noon Lecture Series | China's Urban Champions and the Politics of Spatial Development
DESCRIPTION:The booming development of big cities in China is a double-edged sword: major metropolises are key growth engines\, but the spatial concentration of people and economic activity can worsen inequality\, urban governance challenges\, and political tensions. To clarify why government policies often reinforce regional inequities instead of reducing them\, this study probes the politics of spatial development in four Chinese provinces during the 1990s and 2000s. \n\nKyle Jaros is an Associate Professor in the Political Economy of China in the School of Interdisciplinary Area Studies and a Fellow of Lady Margaret Hall at the University of Oxford. Before coming to Oxford\, he was a China Public Policy Postdoctoral Fellow at the Harvard Kennedy School’s Ash Center\, and earned his PhD in Political Science from the Department of Government at Harvard. He also holds an A.B. in Public and International Affairs and a Certificate in Chinese Language and Culture from Princeton University.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:REBUILD Seminar | Exploring Student Reasoning to Support Better Teaching
DESCRIPTION:Register here for this Brown Bag Seminar: http://crlt.umich.edu/node/94759\n\nThe focal point of Dr. Talanquer’s work is the study\, reflection\, and improvement of chemistry education and science teacher preparation. His research characterizes the conceptual frameworks and patterns of reasoning used by chemistry students to answer questions and solve problems that require qualitative reasoning (e.g.\, classification\, prediction\, inference\, comparison). He is exploring how students' ideas and reasoning strategies evolve as they develop more expertise in the discipline (trajectories of expertise). These studies are of central importance not only to design learning progressions that foster meaningful learning but also to improve the preparation of future chemistry teachers through the development of their assessment thinking (to learn more see The University of Arizona Chemistry and Biochemistry Department).  \n\nREBUILD and the Center for Research on Learning and Teaching are talking to administrators\, faculty\, staff and students across the University about foundational courses. Our goal is to generate a shared vision and agenda for a program of collaborative course design to advance teaching and learning in foundational courses at the University of Michigan.\n\nThe Foundational Course Initiative Seminar Series features high-profile speakers who have extensive experience leading the transformation of foundational courses to incorporate innovative technologies\, research-based pedagogies\, systematic assessment strategies\, and novel approaches to supporting the success of diverse students at scale.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Lasting Synergies
DESCRIPTION:The history of the Ann Arbor Film Festival is inextricably linked with the history of the University of Michigan. With support from the U-M Bicentennial Committee and working with designer Melissa Gomis\, students in Terri Sarris’ Screen Arts course (SAC 304) worked with ephemera from the Festival archives at U-M’s Bentley Historical Library to create a small pop-up exhibition exploring aspects of the Festival's history.

SUMMARY:Conference / Symposium:Attending at Scale\, Responding Personally: Supporting Students in an Information Age
DESCRIPTION:We live in an information age. In this new world\, educational and even personal interactions are often digitally mediated. When they are\, they leave traces: data which reflect what students are doing\, when\, how much\, how well\, and with whom. The ability to observe and analyse both the process and product of education has fueled explosive growth in a new field called learning analytics which is helping us to better understand how student behaviors relate to learning and to personalize educational experiences at scale.\n\nBuilt on tools originally developed for digital health coaching\, Michigan's ECoach tool allows us to provide students with personalized feedback\, encouragement\, and advice even in courses which enroll thousands of students. ECoach uses everything we know about each student's background\, interest\, goals\, and current state to tailor the content they receive: changing what we say\, when and how we deliver the message\, and even who delivers the message. This last is done by providing students with testimonials from identity salient peers. Tailored coaching tools like this hold great promise for student support at scale. In this work\, we draw on decades of behavior change research: nudging students at key moments\, providing interventions designed to affirm values\, build a sense of belonging\, and encourage a growth mindset. While these tools have so far been applied with an academic focus\, they hold great promise for providing advice and basic counseling at scale.

DESCRIPTION:Geometry in orbital integrals and beyond \n\nThe Gross-Zagier formula is an identity between the first derivative of the L-function of an elliptic curve at s=1 and an intersection number. In joint work with Wei Zhang\, we give a generalization of the Gross-Zagier formula to higher derivatives of the L-function for elliptic curves over function fields. In this series of lectures\, I will discuss some geometric ideas involved in the proof of this formula which originated from the study of orbital integrals.\n\nThis is the first talk in a series.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:\"Race\, Poverty\, and Housing in American Cities: What do we do now? A Conversation Between Matthew Desmond and Alex Kotlowitz\"
DESCRIPTION:Harvard sociologist Matthew Desmond (MacArthur 2015) takes us into the poorest neighborhoods of Milwaukee to tell the story of eight families on the edge. In Evicted: Poverty and Profit in the American City\, Desmond argues that eviction is an active cause of poverty\, not merely a reflection of it. Combining extraordinary storytelling with meticulous research\, Evicted has been praised as a landmark work of scholarship and reportage that “has set a new standard for reporting on poverty” (Barbara Ehrenreich\, New York Times Book Review) Desmond will be joined in conversation by author and journalist Alex Kotlowitz.\n\nAbout Matthew Desmond: \nMacArthur “Genius” Matthew Desmond’s New York Times bestselling book\, Evicted: Poverty and Profit in the American City\, draws on years of embedded fieldwork and painstakingly gathered data. It was named one of the Top Books of 2016 by nearly three dozen outlets including The New York Times\, The Washington Post\, Publishers Weekly\, Entertainment Weekly\, Kirkus\, Boston Globe and Wall Street Journal. Including it on her personal best-of-the-year list\, Jennifer Senior of the New York Times also called it 2016’s most “unignorable” book: “Nothing else this year came close.”\n\nAbout Alex Kotlowitz:\nAlex Kotlowitz is an award-winning journalist and bestselling author who has been exploring issues of race and poverty in America for over twenty years. His 1991 book\, There Are No Children Here: The Story of Two Boys Growing Up in the Other America\, garnered national recognition for its compassionate and unflinching portrait of Pharoah and Lafeyette Rivers and their lives growing up in a public housing project in inner city Chicago.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:CM-AMO Seminar | Meta and Useful: Dynamic Kirigami Solar Cells and Vapor Printed Nanolobes
DESCRIPTION:Abstract: Part I – A simple 2-dimensional cut pattern undergoes a surprisingly intricate transformation into a 3-dimensional shape upon stretching. The resulting mechanical metamaterial has several interesting properties and applications\, with further modifications enabling conformal electronics and transformative improvements in the economics of solar energy harvesting. Part II – A simple thin-film printing technique is used to generate 2-dimensional patterns micrometers across that also contain complex nano-crystalline structures within the patterned deposits. These nanocrystalline structures exhibit interesting dissolution behavior that unlocks new frontiers for pharmaceutical discovery\, formulation\, and production. In each case\, the nominally 2-dimensional patterning technologies are used to generate structure that circumvents long-standing technological and application trade-offs – an approach applicable to other areas of innovation. \n\nReferences:\n1.

Nature Comm. 5\, 5204 (2014) \n\nBio: Prof. Shtein earned his B.S. in Chemical Engineering at UC Berkeley (1998) and Ph.D. in Chemical Engineering\, while co-advised by Prof. Benziger in ChE and Prof. Forrest in EE at Princeton (Summer 2004)\, where he developed key aspects of Organic Vapor Phase Deposition and invented Organic Vapor Jet Printing. He joined the Materials Science and Engineering de-partment at the Univ. of Michigan in Fall 2004\, where he now serves as Associate Professor\, with appointments in Chemical Engineering\, Applied Physics\, Macromolecular Science and En-gineering\, Art & Design\, and as faculty co-director for the Undergraduate Program in Entre-preneurship in the College of Engineering. His work has been recognized through several awards: the Presidential Early Career Award for Scientists and Engineers (PECASE)\, the MSE Department Achievement Award\, College of Engineering-wide Vulcans Prize for Excellence in Education\, the Newport Award for Excellence and Leadership in Photonics and Optoelectronics\, the Materials Research Society (MRS) graduate student Gold Medal Award\, and others.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:DAAS Africa Workshop   in conjunction with  the African Studies Center        \"Converting Threats to Power: Cultural Politics of Energy and Unity in Post-Genocide Rwanda\"
DESCRIPTION:Professor Doughty's first book project\, Remediation in Rwanda:Grassroots Legal Forums (University of Pennsylvania Press\, Ethnography of Political Violence Series\, 2016)\, was driven by an interest in understanding how the contemporary global preoccupation with law and human rights as universalizing frameworks for post-conflict reconciliation shape people’s own efforts to rebuild their lives in the wake of violence. The book examines the intersection of law\, rights\, and collective belonging in post-genocide Rwanda. It is based on 18 months of ethnographic research with grassroots legal forums in Rwanda\, including genocide courts (gacaca courts) in which suspects from the 1994 genocide were tried among their neighbors before locally elected judges\, as well as mediation committees for ordinary disputes (comite y'abunzi) and a legal aid clinic. Prof Doughty has also researched and/or written on memorialization and education in Rwanda\, and on the International Criminal Tribunal for Rwanda.\n\nProfessor Doughty’s current research project examines the intersection of energy politics and post-genocide reconstruction in Rwanda through a focus on methane extraction in Lake Kivu. This research is funded by grants from the Wenner Gren foundation and National Science Foundation.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Colloquium Series
DESCRIPTION:\nYang Mills connections over a principle bundle are critical points of the energy functional \int |F|^2\, the L^2 norm of the curvature\, and thus may be viewed as a solution to a nonlinear pde.  In many problems\, e.g. compactifications of moduli spaces\, one considers sequences A_i of such connections which converge to a potentially singular limit connection A_i-> A .  The convergence may not be smooth\, and we can understand the blow up region by converging the energy measures  |F_i|^2 dv_g -> |F|^2dv_g +\nu\, where \nu=e(x)d\lambda^{n-4} is the n-4 rectifiable defect measure (e.g. think of \nu as being supported on an n-4 submanifold).  It is this defect measure which explains the behavior of the blow up\, and thus it is a classical problem to understand it.  The main open problem on this front is to compute e(x) explicitly as the sum of the bubble energies which arise from blow ups at x\, a formula known as the energy identity.  This talk will primarily be spent explaining in detail the concepts above\, with the last part focused on sketching a few details of the recent proof of the energy quantization\, which is joint with Daniele Valtorta.  The techniques may also be used to give the first apriori higher derivative estimates on Yang Mills connections\, and we will discuss these results as well.

DESCRIPTION:Understanding the Tech & Trends That Will Shape Tomorrow\n\nChange can be scary\, but it also represents a rich source of business opportunity. The key is knowing how to spot both the ‘megatrends’ (the obvious high-impact changes) and the ‘weak signals’ (the subtler signs of what may be coming around the corner) – and understanding how to translate them into new products\, services and business models. In this workshop\, you’ll learn how entrepreneurs and executives can successfully anticipate\, and benefit from\, emerging social\, demographic\, cultural and technology trends. Facilitated by Joshua Botkin\, Ross Faculty and ZLI Entrepreneur in Residence.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Student Algebraic Geometry
DESCRIPTION:Let X be a nonsingular projective variety over the finite field F_q. On the one hand\, one can define the zeta function of X. It is a generating function of the numbers of points of X over any finite extensions F_{q^m} of F_q. The famous Weil conjecture is about the properties of this generating function. On the other hand\, one can study the bounded derived category of coherent sheaves of X. Orlov has conjectured that derived equivalent smooth\, projective varieties have isomorphic motives. It implies that they have the same zeta functions if they are defined over a finite field. In this talk\, I will discuss some results on this conjecture and the main references are papers by Katrina Honigs. Speaker(s): Ming Zhang (UM)

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:Writer to Writer with special guest Clare Croft
DESCRIPTION:Sweetland Center for Writing's Writer to Writer series lets you hear directly from University of Michigan professors about their challenges\, processes\, and expectations as writers and also as readers of student writing. Each semester\, Writer to Writer pairs one esteemed University professor with a Sweetland faculty member for a conversation about writing. \n\nThis month Writer to Writer welcomes Clare Croft. Clare Croft is a historian\, theorist\, and dramaturg\, working at the intersection of dance studies and performance studies. She specializes in 20th and 21st century American dance\, cultural policy\, feminist and queer theory\, and critical race theory. In all of these areas\, Croft considers how dance is a way of thinking and a mode for asking questions. What does it mean to acknowledge that people have bodies and that they use their bodies to make meaning\, create community\, and critique social structures? \n\nCroft's current book project\, Funding Footprints: Dance and American Diplomacy (Oxford University Press)\, examines the history of U.S. State Department funding of international dance tours. Croft's writing about dance has appeared in Dance Research Journal\, Theatre Journal\, and Theatre Topics\, and is forthcoming in Dance Chronicle. From 2002-2005\, Croft was a regular contributor to The Washington Post\, and from 2005-2010\, she covered dance\, as well as theatre and musical theatre\, for the Austin American-Statesman.\n\nIn 2010\, Croft's article\, \"Ballet Nations: The New York City Ballet's 1962 U.S. State Department-Sponsored Tour of the Soviet Union\,\" received the American Society of Theatre Research's Biennial Sally Banes Publication Prize\, which recognizes the publication that best explores the intersections of theatre and dance/movement. Croft was also the 2007 recipient of the Society of Dance History Scholar's Selma Jeanne Cohen Award. At the University of Michigan\, Croft teaches courses in the BFA and MFA dance programs\, as well as in the BFA interarts program. \n\nWriter to Writer takes place at the Literati bookstore and are broadcast live on WCBN radio. These conversations offer students a rare glimpse into the writing that professors do outside the classroom. You can hear instructors from various disciplines describe how they handle the same challenges student writers face\, from finding a thesis to managing deadlines. Professors will also discuss what they want from student writers in their courses\, and will take questions put forth by students and by other members of the University community. If there's anything you've ever wanted to ask a professor about writing\, Writer to Writer gives you the chance.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:2017 David Noel Freedman Lecture
DESCRIPTION:The lecture deals with the political theology of the 1 Book of Maccabees. The book\, composed in the middle of the second century BCE\, reflects a unique and revolutionary stream of thought in ancient Judaism that would have an impact on later generations. Namely\, God in the biblical books of Joshua 2 Kings is presented as reluctant to appoint a king (1 Samuel 8) and later when kings become active in the history of Israel\, He blatantly intervenes in their rule one by one and most of the time. In contradistinction\, the Maccabean family created a dynasty and ruled with hardly any intervention of God who remains passive throughout their rule. This was made possible since they perceived their regime as being a 'time of exception'\, mentioned in the 1 Book of Maccabees by the expression \"until a true prophet should arise\". Their liberation from a \"competitive\" God\, a higher interventative authority\, may be interpreted as a major achievements during their fight for freedom from Seleucid rule. The lecture will also deal with a significant streak of criticism on behalf of the author towards the too independent decision making procedures of the first Hasmoneans.

SUMMARY:Performance:Faculty Recital: Stephen Rush
DESCRIPTION:On the Vernal Equinox of this year\, Professor Rush will attempt to re-define or destroy the idea of the piano recital through an event he calls “Piano Circus.”  The concert consists of a wide variety of music\, including classic European avant-garde “hits” Evryali by Xenakis\, Klavierstücke XI by Stockhausen\, and Catalogue of the Birds (Book V) by Messiaen.  Additional music by American composers Stevie Wonder\, John Coltrane\, Meredith Monk\, John Cage\, Tom Waits\, Charles Ives\, and Rush. The audience will experience the concert twice (or more)\, through 8-channel audio diffusion\, with chopped-up playback of each piece\, played over the actual performance by Rush himself. In other words\, the music will be digitally parsed and played randomly (in small gestures) against the performance of the recital itself. To make matters even more interesting\, the audience gets to select the order of the recital/circus by polling here: myumi.ch/aXwnp. \n\nThe concert is under an hour\, suitable for all ages\, and seating is limited to 80. Please arrive early.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Gifts of Art presents Blossom by Blossom: Elvish Ceramics
DESCRIPTION:Gabrielle Soltis creates works from the Gyldenstjerne Porcelain Company lineage. The story goes that sometime in the early 1700s\, a young Danish nobleman by the name of Einar Gyldenstjerne fell in love and married an Elvish woman named Gwyneira (surname unknown) who shared the family recipe for how to create hard-paste porcelain. The first items produced by the company are dated to 1715. Soltis’ porcelain flowers in this tradition are assembled meticulously petal by petal. She studied ceramics at the College for Creative Studies in Detroit\, Michigan and is interested in European history and fiction.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Gifts of Art presents Cakeasaurus: Scenes from a Picture Book
DESCRIPTION:One caffeinated afternoon in 2008\, a monster appeared to Marian Short\, bragging about his many cake thefts. He was arrogant\, sugar-fueled and oddly appealing. Being a printmaker\, Short began carving the tale into woodblocks. This picture book exhibit follows the confectionary exploits of Cakeasaurus\, one cake-deprived town\, and one little boy about to turn five. It also shows the evolution of a long-term project\, with print variations and peeks into artistic process. Short is an Ann Arbor based artist and writer\, whose work has appeared in local and national exhibitions.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Causal Inference in Education Research Seminar (CIERS): Nudging at a National Scale: Experimental Evidence from a FAFSA Completion Campaign
DESCRIPTION:Abstract:\n\nDespite substantial and growing interest in behavioral science interventions in education\, we currently lack evidence about whether nudge interventions that have generated positive impacts on postsecondary outcomes at a local level can be scaled—and can maintain efficacy—nationally. We also have little evidence about the specific mechanisms underlying the positive impacts of promising smaller-scale nudges. We investigate\, through a randomized controlled trial\, the impact of a national information-only financial aid nudge campaign that reached over 450\,000 high school seniors who had registered with the Common Application\, a national non-profit organization through which students can apply to multiple colleges and universities in one application. In this version of the paper we report on the impact of three different variations in nudge content—concretizing the financial benefits of FAFSA completion\, positive trait activation\, or providing concrete planning prompts—on students’ initial college enrollment outcomes. We find that providing students with concrete planning prompts about when and how to complete the FAFSA increased college enrollment by 1.1 percentage points overall\, and by 1.7 percentage points for first-generation college students. Messages that take a traditional human capital investments approach of emphasizing the financial benefits associated with FAFSA completion do not appear to increase college enrollment. At a per-student cost of $0.50\, the impact to cost ratio of this national nudge campaign exceeds that of other interventions to improve college enrollment among low-income and first-generation students.

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:Here and There
DESCRIPTION:\"Here and There\"  looks at the problems of extreme poverty\, and includes artist Tracey Snelling's signature piece \"One Thousand Shacks.\" New works--created on campus during her three-week residency--will examine these issues in the US\, how they relate to location and\, at times\, the disenfranchisement of large groups of people for the sake of big business\, political clout\, and power. \n\nCurator's Statement:\n\nTo meet artist Tracey Snelling evokes the sensation of a strong willed breeze determined to open a backyard door. \n\nAs an artist and person\, she is down to earth\, direct\, contemporary\, and moving through it all with volition. \n\nSnelling’s artistic practice originally focused on photography as a medium\, but soon evolved to include her construction of sculptures based upon cities and towns\, strip malls and urban housing. \n\nShe refers to her three dimensional work as sculptural rather than diorama or model making because she isn’t particularly interested in the exact rendering of location\, or the contextualization of place. Instead\, she taps into the energy of community and its humanness—restless\, frenetic\, din\, a choir\, extending beyond the confines of walls. \n\nSnelling’s representations are neither judgmental nor opportunistic. They unaffectedly and objectively offer a multidimensional sketch of a place in time\, how we occupy space. \n\nHer signature piece \"One Thousand Shacks\" (included in this exhibition along with new work created during her her residency here) pushes up against the challenges of economic inequalities\, racial biases\, and imposed class divisions that often limit the options available to so many people. Concurrently\, the installation embraces our everyday existence expressed through Snelling’s exuberant palette\, bold graphics\, video and neon. \n\nConceptually\, Snelling’s stacking method first creates an exalted “big picture” with a myriad of colors\, image\, text\, sound and light. The counterpoint in scale soon immerses the viewer into each small world. With this shift\, the onlooker becomes the active participant\, the occupant in situ\, adding the trappings of their own experiences to each tableau. It is this shift that forces the viewer into a new way of seeing from varying perspectives.\n\nOn the one hand\, the artist’s sculptures allude to our desire for refuge\, a private domain that allows us to be ourselves. On the other\, the overall composition reaffirms it is imperative that we co-exist with one another respectfully\, forge relationships\, understanding our marked differences. It is diversity—the unique and often disparate combination of things\, the cacophony of it all\, that activates communities and public space.\n\nSnelling’s constructions literally build a way out\, one on top of another\, charged with the undercurrent of the way we live. They emphasize our universal longing to find a place called home\, and be accepted\, built on the foundation of one and of many. \n–Amanda Krugliak\, Arts Curator\, Institute for the Humanities\n\nAbout Tracey Snelling:\nThrough the use of sculpture\, photography\, video\, and large-scale installation\, Tracey Snelling gives her impression of a place\, its people and their experience. Often\, the cinematic image stands in for real life as it plays out behind windows in the buildings\, sometimes creating a sense of mystery\, other times stressing the mundane. Snelling’s work derives from voyeurism\, film noir\, and geographical and architectural location. Within this idea of location\, themes develop that transport observation into the realm of storytelling\, with reality and sociological study being the focus. Snelling had exhibited in international galleries\, museums and institutions\, including the The Royal Museum of Fine Arts\, Belgium\; Palazzo Reale\, Milan\; Museum of Arts and Design\, New York\; Kunstmuseen Krefeld Germany\; El Museo de Arte de Banco de la Republica\, Bogota\; the Stenersen Museet\, Oslo\, and the Sundance Film Festival. Her short films have screened at the San Francisco International Film Festival\, the Thessaloniki International Film Festival\, Circuito Off in Venice\, Italy\, and the Arquiteturas Film Festival Lisboa in Portugal. She also received a 2015 Joan Mitchell Painters and Sculptors Grant. Snelling lives and works in Oakland\, California and Berlin\, Germany.

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

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:Lecture / Discussion:CREES Noon Lecture. Between Political and Social Constraints: Christian Movements in Contemporary Central Asia
DESCRIPTION:Although the five Central Asian republics are majority Muslim\, they are also home to many Christian—Orthodox\, Catholic\, Armenian and Protestant—minorities. Most of these communities consist of Slavic or European minorities (Russians\, Germans\, Poles\, Armenians\, etc.). In addition\, post-Soviet liberalization enabled Protestants to gain a strong footing by converting thousands of Central Asian Muslims. After a brief introduction on the history and presence of Christian movements in the region\, this presentation will address the link between religion and nationality\, and its impact on the management of Christian minorities by the governments. \n \nFor many officials\, as well as parts of the Muslim and Christian populations\, religious belonging should follow from nationality. However\, Christian proselytism has challenged this principle. For years\, the Muslim population\, ulema\, and the Russian Orthodox Church have denounced the increasing numbers of conversions. The governments have responded by introducing numerous legislative restrictions on religious freedom since the 1990\, including ban on proselytizing. From the Christian minority prospective\, this presentation will explore the contrast between the governments' claims of religious renewal versus the limitations imposed by their religious management policies. \n\nSebastien Peyrouse\, PhD\, is a research professor at the Central Asia Program in the Institute for European\, Russian and Eurasian Studies (George Washington University) and a senior fellow at the East West Institute. He worked six years in Central Asia and was Research Fellow at Woodrow Wilson International Center for Scholars\, Washington D.C. (October 2006-June 2007). His main areas of expertise are political systems in Central Asia\, economic and social issues\, Islam and religious minorities\, and Central Asia’s geopolitical positioning toward China\, India and South Asia. He has published several monographs\, such as \"Christians Between Atheism and Islam: Studies of Religion in Soviet and Post-Soviet Central Asia\" (Maisonneuve et Larose\, 2003\, in French)\, \"Turkmenistan. Strategies of Power\, Dilemmas of Development\" (M. E. Sharpe\, November 2011).\n\nPart of the Minorities series at the Weiser Center for Europe & Eurasia\, which focuses on the fates and challenges various minorities face\, from ethnic and racial groups to people with disabilities and members of LGBT communities. How do different political regimes come to define groups as minorities\, and how do they engage with them as a result? What can the experience of minorities in the other parts of the world teach us?

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:HET Brown Bag Seminar | Linearized Gravity as a Gauge-Invariant Wave Equation on Kinematic Space
DESCRIPTION:Kinematic space was originally defined in AdS3 as the space of geodesics. In this talk\, I will generalize the concept of kinematic space to higher dimensions. Fields can be defined on this kinematic space\, and these fields can be identified with \"OPE blocks\,\" contributions to the OPE from a single conformal family. In holographic theories\, the OPE blocks are dual at leading order in 1/N to integrals of effective bulk fields along geodesics or homogeneous minimal surfaces in anti-de Sitter space. Thus\, these operators pave the way for generalizing the Ryu-Takayanagi relation to other bulk fields. The dynamics of bulk fields are related to the dynamics of kinematic space fields via the intertwining property of integral transformations. In particular\, the linearized gravitational equations are shown to be equivalent to a gauge-invariant wave equation on kinematic space.\n\nReferences:\n1) Equivalent Equations of Motion for Gravity and Entropy.\nBy Bartlomiej Czech\, Lampros Lamprou\, Samuel McCandlish\, Benjamin Mosk\, James Sully.\n[arXiv:1608.06282 [hep-th]].\n10.1007/JHEP02(2017)004.\nJHEP 1702 (2017) 004.\n\n2) Holographic equivalence between the first law of entanglement entropy and the linearized gravitational equations.\nBy Benjamin Mosk.\n[arXiv:1608.06292 [hep-th]].\n10.1103/PhysRevD.94.126001.\nPhys.Rev.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Medieval Lunch. Making Chaucer in the 'Un-English' Book
DESCRIPTION:Cambridge University Library\, MS Gg.4.27 (hereafter Gg)\, iconic for its early attempt to collect Chaucer’s works in a single codex\, is much more rarely remembered for containing the only “complete” copy of a pair of anonymous macaronic poems usually anthologized as De Amico ad amicam and Responcio. Taking the trilingual lyric diptych as a starting point\, this talk considers the significance of this largely Middle English\, largely Chaucerian book as a multilingual archive. Thus\, my study complicates the conventional understanding of Gg’s place in the formation of a Chaucerian and\, in turn\, English literary canon. Along the way\, I offer revised explanations for some enduring puzzles surrounding the manuscript. For instance\, I read Gg’s seemingly arbitrary inclusion of non-Chaucerian works—some of which\, including our macaronic poems\, rarely appear among the poet’s extensive apocrypha—alongside its distinct orthography or\, to borrow Eleanor Hammond’s words\, “un-English miswritings.” Such peculiarities point toward a renewed interpretation of the manuscript less as a windfall contribution to the growing authority of Chaucer and the English language in the later medieval period and more as a destabilizing factor in that narrative.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:Vaccine Court: The Law and Politics of Injury
DESCRIPTION:Discussants : \n-ANNA KIRKLAND\, Arthur F. Thurnau Professor\; Associate Professor of Women's Studies and Political Science\; Associate Director\, IRWG\n-SHOBITA PARTHASARATHY\, Associate Professor of Public Policy and Women's Studies\; Director\, Science\, Technology\, and Public Policy Program\n-PETER D. JACOBSON\, Professor of Health Law and Policy\, Director\, Center for Law\, Ethics\, and Health\n\nThis panel of U-M faculty members will discuss the recent book\, \"Vaccine Court: The Law and Politics of Injury\" (NYU Press\, December 2016) by Anna Kirkland.\n\nThe so-called vaccine court is a small special court in the United States Court of Federal Claims that handles controversial claims that a vaccine has harmed someone. While vaccines in general are extremely safe and effective\, some people still suffer severe vaccine reactions and bring their claims to vaccine court. In this court\, lawyers\, activists\, judges\, doctors\, and scientists come together\, sometimes arguing bitterly\, trying to figure out whether a vaccine really caused a person’s medical problem.\n\nIn \"Vaccine Court\"\, Kirkland draws on the trials of the vaccine court to explore how legal institutions resolve complex scientific questions. What are vaccine injuries\, and how do we come to recognize them? What does it mean to transform these questions into a legal problem and funnel them through a special national vaccine court\, as we do in the U.S.? What does justice require for vaccine injury claims\, and how can we deliver it? These are highly contested questions\, and the terms in which they have been debated over the last forty years are highly revealing of deeper fissures in our society over motherhood\, community\, health\, harm\, and trust in authority. While many scholars argue that it’s foolish to let judges and lawyers decide medical claims about vaccines\, Kirkland argues that our political and legal response to vaccine injury claims shows how well legal institutions can handle specialized scientific matters. Vaccine Court is an accessible and thorough account of what the vaccine court is\, why we have it\, and what it does.\n\nThis event is part of IRWG's Gender: New Works\, New Questions series.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Financial/Actuarial Mathematics
DESCRIPTION:We prove that a variance swap has the same price as a co-terminal European-style contract\, when the underlying is a Markov process\, time-changed by a general continuous stochastic clock\, which is allowed to have general correlation with the driving Markov process\, which is allowed to have state-dependent jump distributions. The European contractâ€™s payoff function satisfies an ordinary integro-differential equation\, which depends only on the dynamics of the Markov process\, not on the clock. In some examples\, the payoff function that prices the variance swap can be computed explicitly. \n\nJoint work with Peter Carr and Matt Lorig. Speaker(s): Roger Lee (University of Chicago)

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Macroeconomics: Missing Growth from Creative Destruction
DESCRIPTION:Abstract:\n\nStatistical agencies typically impute inflation for disappearing products from the inflation rate for surviving products. As some products disappear precisely because they are displaced by better products\, inflation may be lower at these points than for surviving products. As a result\, creative destruction may result in overstated inflation and understated growth. We use a simple model to relate this “missing growth” to the frequency and size of various kinds of innovations. Using U.S. Census data\, we then apply two ways of assessing the magnitude of missing growth for all private nonfarm businesses for 1983–2013. The first approach exploits information on the market share of surviving plants. The second approach applies indirect inference to firm-level data. We find: (i) missing growth from imputation is substantial — 0.5 percentage points per year when using the first approach\, 1 percentage point per year using the second method\; and (ii) almost all of the missing growth is due to creative destruction (as opposed to new varieties).

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:Nam Center Colloquium Series | Master or Servant? Public Opinion\, Polling\, and Democratic Responsiveness in Korea
DESCRIPTION:This event was rescheduled from March 15\, due to weather-related issues.\n\nCo-sponsored by the Department of Political Science and Political Scientists of Color (PSOC).\n\n\"Political responsiveness\" is a foundation stone of modern democracies\, entailing an expectation that governments will heed and reckon the interests and demands of the polities they govern over and for with some regularity. To date the political science study of responsiveness is largely the province of scholars of American politics and its presence sought by matching the timing of changes in public opinion (as measured by opinion polls) to the timing of legislative debate and decision. This paper aims to extend the parameters of the study of political responsiveness in several aspects. First\, it examines responsiveness in non-U.S. contexts\, with South Korea as the primary focus and comparisons to Taiwan and Japan. Second\, it adopts a more critical standpoint on the nature of public opinion and its relation to polling and political responsiveness. Rather than assuming that polls correspond faithfully to mass opinion qua democratic publics\, it unpacks this association by tracing the historical evolution of modern polling and assessing the quality of polling data as a measure of mass opinion. Third\, rather than testing for the statistical congruence of polling data and legislative action\, this paper relies principally on in-depth interviews of experts representing the organizational field of polling on elections and politics in Korea\, Japan\, and Taiwan. The (preliminary) findings show a far more multifaceted\, if not democratically distressing\, view of the relationship between polling\, public opinion\, and political responsiveness than previous\, U.S.-based accounts of \"rational publics.\" \n\nTaeku Lee is Professor of Political Science and Professor of Law at Berkeley. He has written or edited Mobilizing Public Opinion (Chicago 2002)\; Transforming Politics\, Transforming America (with Ricardo Ramí­rez and S. Karthick Ramakrishnan\, Virginia 2006)\, Why Americans Don't Join the Party (with Zoltan Hajnal\, Princeton 2011)\, Asian American Political Participation (with Janelle Wong\, S. Karthick Ramakrishnan\, Jane Junn\, Russell Sage 2011) and Accountability through Public Opinion (with Sina Odugbemi\, World Bank\, 2011). Mobilizing Public Opinion received the J. David Greenstone and the V.O. Key book award in 2003\; Why Americans Don't Join the Party was awarded the best book award from the Race and Ethnic Politics section of the American Political Science Association. \n\nLee is currently Non-Resident Senior Fellow at the Brookings Institution and co-Principal Investigator of the National Asian American Survey. Lee has served in various leadership\, advisory\, and consultative capacities including the Board of the American National Election Studies\, the Board of the General Social Survey\, and the Council of the American Political Science Association. Prior to coming to Berkeley\, he was Assistant Professor of Public Policy at Harvard's Kennedy School and Robert Wood Johnson Scholar at Yale. Lee was born in South Korea\, grew up in rural Malaysia\, Manhattan\, and suburban Detroit\, and is a proud graduate of K-12 public schools\, the University of Michigan (AB)\, Harvard University (MPP)\, and the University of Chicago (PhD).

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:The Agency of Color: Art and Race in Eighteenth Century
DESCRIPTION:In this lecture\, I would like to better define the instrumental role played by the arts of color in the surprising process of articulating the category of race to that of skin color. While natural history\, political history\, aesthetics have already been the subject of remarkable historical and epistemological work regarding the emerging category of race under the Ancien Régime\, there seems to be\, still\, a compelling case to address by studying the role of images and of fine arts in their expository and material specificities. Indeed\, I would like to expose how\, in the Eighteenth Century\, their very means were fundamentally entangled with the anchoring of race in skin color. \n\nAnne Lafont is associate professor in art history at the University of East Paris/Marne-la-Vallée. In 2007 she joined the French National Institute of Art History (INHA). There\, she was engaged for five years in historiographical research programs (art and science\; art and nationalism\; gender studies and art discourses) before becoming editor-in-chief of the INHA review Perspective. Lafont is the author of a monograph on the french painter Girodet (Paris: Adam Biro\, 2005). She has edited Plumes et pinceaux. Discours de femmes sur l’art en Europe 1750-1850\, 2 vols (Paris: Presses du Réel\, 2012) and she just completed a book on Art and Race in the Age of Enlightenment after having published numerous articles on this topic.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:The Institute for Social Research and Social Science at the University and Michigan and Beyond: 1946-1970
DESCRIPTION:After 1945\, many of the founders of the Institute for Social Research (ISR) arrived at Michigan fresh from wartime service in the federal government to establish a new interdisciplinary\, problem-centered\, approach to social inquiry. Situated in ISR and eventually in disciplinary homes in the College of Literature\, Science\, and the Arts (including psychology\, sociology\, political science\, and economics)\, their research expanded and defined national survey and experimental methods as key underpinnings for modern social science. They shared a democratizing vision of the importance of accurate and timely social measurement in an urbanizing and modernizing world. Panelists will explore this early history of ISR.\n\nProfessor Burnstein\, professor emeritus of psychology\, received his AB degree from the University of Pennsylvania in 1954 and his PhD degree from the University of Michigan in 1960. From 1959 to 1962 he was an assistant professor at the University of Texas and then Michigan State University. He joined the University of Michigan faculty as a visiting assistant professor and program director in the Research Center for Group Dynamics at the Institute for Social Research in 1962. He was appointed assistant professor in 1963\, associate professor in 1964\, and professor in 1968\, and within the Research Center for Group Dynamics was promoted to research scientist in 1973 and senior research scientist in 1997. From 1988-2000\, Professor Burnstein also served as chair of the Department of Psychology's Social Psychology Area. He retired from active faculty status on May 31\, 2002.\n\nJames House is Angus Campbell Distinguished University Professor Emeritus of Survey Research\, Public Policy\, and Sociology\, and an elected member of the American Academy of Arts and Sciences\, the Institute of Medicine\, and the National Academy of Sciences.  His research career has focused on the role of social and psychological factors in the etiology and course of health and illness\, initially on occupational stress and health\, then social relationships and support in relation to health\, and currently on the role of psychosocial factors in understanding and alleviating social disparities in health and the way health changes with age. He has taught courses in social psychology\, social determinants and disparities in health\, and applications of these to social policy.\n\nRobert Kahn is research scientist in the Institute for Social Research\, professor emeritus of psychology\, and professor emeritus of health services management and policy.

SUMMARY:Other:Author's Forum Presents: \"A Perfect Life\": A Conversation with Eileen Pollack and Tim McKay
DESCRIPTION:Eileen Pollack (U-M English professor) reads from her latest novel \"A Perfect Life\,\" followed by a conversation with Tim McKay\, U-M professor of physics\, astronomy\, and education\; then Q & A and book signing.\n\nAbout \"A Perfect Life\":\nA luminous and insightful novel that considers the moral complexities of scientific discovery and the sustaining nature of love. A young researcher at MIT\, Jane Weiss is obsessed with finding the genetic marker for Valentine’s Disease\, a neurodegenerative disorder. Her pursuit is deeply personal—Valentine’s killed her mother\, and she and her freewheeling sister\, Laurel\, could be genetic carriers\; each has a fifty percent chance of developing the disease. Having seen firsthand the devastating effect Valentine’s had on her parents’ marriage\, Jane is terrified she might become a burden on whomever she falls in love with and so steers clear of romantic entanglement. Then\, the summer before her father’s second wedding\, Jane falls hard for her future stepbrother\, Willie. But Willie’s father also died from Valentine’s\, raising the odds that their love will end in tragedy.\nWhen Willie bolts at a crucial moment in their relationship\, Jane becomes obsessed with finding the genetic marker to the disease that threatens both their families. But if she succeeds in making history\, will she and her sister have the courage to face the truth this newfound knowledge could hold for their lives? A Perfect Life is a novel of scientific and self discovery\, about learning how to embrace life and love\, no matter what may come. Eileen Pollack conjures a thought-provoking\, emotionally resonant story of one woman’s brilliance and bravery as she confronts her deepest fears and desires—and comes to accept the inevitable and the unexpected.

SUMMARY:Other:Eileen Pollack \"A Perfect Life\"
DESCRIPTION:Love and science converge in Eileen Pollack’s luminous new novel\, A Perfect Life. With singular insight and narrative grace\, Pollack explores the moral complexities of scientific discovery through the story of a brilliant research biologist facing heartrending decisions about her personal life and the fate that genetics may have preordained for her. \n\nJane Weiss is a young post doc at MIT who is obsessed with finding the genetic marker for Valentine’s disease\, a neurodegenerative disorder that killed her mother. With the clear vision of a scientist\, she knows that she and her sister each stand a fifty percent chance of inheriting the disease\, and her research is fueled by a need to discover if they are genetic carriers. Having witnessed the devastating effect that Valentine’s had on her parents’ marriage\, Jane has vowed to steer clear of love unless she is sure she is free of the disease\, refusing to become a burden on anyone else. But that determination is upended when she meets and falls in love with Willie\, whose own father died of Valentine’s. Suddenly\, with the very real possibility of their relationship ending in tragedy\, her research takes on a new ferocity.\n\n“A Perfect Life probes how we live in the face of uncertainty and the ways risk can both disable and empower us. Eileen Pollack has crafted a tender exploration of family love that is as smart and thought-provoking as it is moving.”--Celeste Ng\, author of Everything I Never Told You\n\n“Like Richard Powers’s The Gold Bug Variations and Allegra Goodman’s Intuition\, Eileen Pollack’s compelling novel offers an intimate portrait of scientists engaged in research with the potential to change all our lives—and equally engaged in relationships that change their own lives.\"--Andrea Barrett\, author of Ship Fever and Servants of the Map\n\n“A tense scientific mystery propels this gripping novel\, but what resonates most powerfully are the keenly observed discoveries Jane makes about even deeper mysteries: the risks and pleasures of being human\, and the nuances—as well as the costs—of love.”--Kim Edwards\, author of The Memory-Keeper's Daughter\n\nWith both an MFA from the Iowa Writers’ Workshop and a BS in physics from Yale\, Eileen Pollack is uniquely positioned to have written A Perfect Life\, bringing both a fiction-writer’s sensibility and a scientific background to the novel. She is the author of two previous novels\, two story collections\, and two books of nonfiction\, and has received fellowships from the National Endowment for the Arts\, the Michener Foundation and the Rona Jaffe Foundation. Her work has been included in both the Best American Short Stories and the Best American Essays series. Pollack has been a professor at the Helen Zell MFA Program at the University of Michigan since 1999\, and was a director of the program for five years. She now divides her time between Ann Arbor and Manhattan.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:March Science Café: Can Nutrition\, Stress\, and Environmental Exposures Change Your DNA?
DESCRIPTION:Epigenetics is the science of gene expression\, and research suggests that while our experiences may not change our DNA sequence\, experience and environment can and do change the shape and chemistry of our DNA. These changes can affect whether or how much a gene is expressed. Stress and trauma can also change other aspects of our biology. Join three researchers as we discuss the biological effects of past nutrition\, stress\, and toxicant exposures on our health and well-being. Are these changes heritable? Can diet and exercise protect our DNA?\n\nSpeakers include Kelly Bakulski and Dana Dolinoy of the U-M School of Public Health\, and Srijan Sen of the Department of Psychiatry at Michigan Medicine.\n\nThis cafe is sponsored by Sigma Xi\, The Scientific Research Society.\n\nScience Cafés provide an opportunity for audiences to discuss current research topics with experts in an informal setting. Hors d’oeuvres at 5:30 p.m.\; program 6:00-7:30 p.m.  Seating is limited - come early.

SUMMARY:Film Screening:Socrates of Kamchatka
DESCRIPTION:Irina Patkanian\, writer and director. In Russian with English subtitles (52 min.\, 2017).\n\n“Socrates of Kamchatka” blends documentary and fiction to tell a story about a “new Russian” entrepreneur Anfisa and her horse Socrates. From the documentary thread of the film we learn the story of Anfisa during the past 30 years: a happy childhood during Brezhnev’s totalitarian socialism of the 1980s\; hard times during Yeltsin’s chaotic 1990s\; founding and running a successful tourist company during Putin’s nationalism of the 2000s. In 2010 Anfisa acquired four horses for her company. In 2012 her horses were killed for no other reason\, but to “punish” Anfisa for her economic success. One of them was called Socrates. \n    \nSocrates’ voiceover is written in the tradition of “skaz” – a Russian subliterary idiom. Humorous and sad\, mixing folk lyricism and newspaper verbiage\, opinion and fact\, Socrates’ subliterary poeticity echoes and subverts the conventions of mainstream discourse. \n\nThis film is part of the Ann Arbor Film Festival. Co-sponsors are the Center for Russian\, East European\, and Eurasian Studies and the Ann Arbor Distilling Co.

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:Here and There
DESCRIPTION:\"Here and There\"  looks at the problems of extreme poverty\, and includes artist Tracey Snelling's signature piece \"One Thousand Shacks.\" New works--created on campus during her three-week residency--will examine these issues in the US\, how they relate to location and\, at times\, the disenfranchisement of large groups of people for the sake of big business\, political clout\, and power. \n\nCurator's Statement:\n\nTo meet artist Tracey Snelling evokes the sensation of a strong willed breeze determined to open a backyard door. \n\nAs an artist and person\, she is down to earth\, direct\, contemporary\, and moving through it all with volition. \n\nSnelling’s artistic practice originally focused on photography as a medium\, but soon evolved to include her construction of sculptures based upon cities and towns\, strip malls and urban housing. \n\nShe refers to her three dimensional work as sculptural rather than diorama or model making because she isn’t particularly interested in the exact rendering of location\, or the contextualization of place. Instead\, she taps into the energy of community and its humanness—restless\, frenetic\, din\, a choir\, extending beyond the confines of walls. \n\nSnelling’s representations are neither judgmental nor opportunistic. They unaffectedly and objectively offer a multidimensional sketch of a place in time\, how we occupy space. \n\nHer signature piece \"One Thousand Shacks\" (included in this exhibition along with new work created during her her residency here) pushes up against the challenges of economic inequalities\, racial biases\, and imposed class divisions that often limit the options available to so many people. Concurrently\, the installation embraces our everyday existence expressed through Snelling’s exuberant palette\, bold graphics\, video and neon. \n\nConceptually\, Snelling’s stacking method first creates an exalted “big picture” with a myriad of colors\, image\, text\, sound and light. The counterpoint in scale soon immerses the viewer into each small world. With this shift\, the onlooker becomes the active participant\, the occupant in situ\, adding the trappings of their own experiences to each tableau. It is this shift that forces the viewer into a new way of seeing from varying perspectives.\n\nOn the one hand\, the artist’s sculptures allude to our desire for refuge\, a private domain that allows us to be ourselves. On the other\, the overall composition reaffirms it is imperative that we co-exist with one another respectfully\, forge relationships\, understanding our marked differences. It is diversity—the unique and often disparate combination of things\, the cacophony of it all\, that activates communities and public space.\n\nSnelling’s constructions literally build a way out\, one on top of another\, charged with the undercurrent of the way we live. They emphasize our universal longing to find a place called home\, and be accepted\, built on the foundation of one and of many. \n–Amanda Krugliak\, Arts Curator\, Institute for the Humanities\n\nAbout Tracey Snelling:\nThrough the use of sculpture\, photography\, video\, and large-scale installation\, Tracey Snelling gives her impression of a place\, its people and their experience. Often\, the cinematic image stands in for real life as it plays out behind windows in the buildings\, sometimes creating a sense of mystery\, other times stressing the mundane. Snelling’s work derives from voyeurism\, film noir\, and geographical and architectural location. Within this idea of location\, themes develop that transport observation into the realm of storytelling\, with reality and sociological study being the focus. Snelling had exhibited in international galleries\, museums and institutions\, including the The Royal Museum of Fine Arts\, Belgium\; Palazzo Reale\, Milan\; Museum of Arts and Design\, New York\; Kunstmuseen Krefeld Germany\; El Museo de Arte de Banco de la Republica\, Bogota\; the Stenersen Museet\, Oslo\, and the Sundance Film Festival. Her short films have screened at the San Francisco International Film Festival\, the Thessaloniki International Film Festival\, Circuito Off in Venice\, Italy\, and the Arquiteturas Film Festival Lisboa in Portugal. She also received a 2015 Joan Mitchell Painters and Sculptors Grant. Snelling lives and works in Oakland\, California and Berlin\, Germany.

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:Workshop / Seminar:CSAAW Talk: Considering Human Conversation as a Complex System: Some Early Success and a Lot of Failures
DESCRIPTION:Imagine you are having a delightful conversation with a friend on a sunny afternoon in the Quad.  With what degree of precision do you think you can predict the next thing your friend will say?  Maybe you can guess the type of speech act\, but the exact words?  What about what your friend will say in five minutes?  For that matter\, with what degree of precision to you think you can predict exactly what you will say in five minutes?  It seems impossible.  However\, we know conversations must follow some type of agreed upon rules\, otherwise we wouldn’t be able to carry on conversions or to produce the types of outcomes that we desire (e.g.\, agreement\, support\, idea development).  Though conversations are the basic mechanism by which humans accomplish everything from meeting a new person to building an economic system\, we know very little about how conversations work.  If we understood\, Siri\, Cortana\, Alexa and Watson would be able to form a study group!  We will be presenting findings from research in which we are trying to discover the rules that give rise to the apparent complexity of human communication.  We’ll describe a novel approach to studying conversations and present a variety of results ranging from some successes to lots of failures\, in hopes of stimulating some great feedback from the CSAAW group.\nSign up at:\nhttps://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1SQcC0pv73CUVtseQ6ci2KYr8Y64H4Te4L1FNJ24fXL8/edit#gid=0

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:RESIDENTIAL VARIABILITY AND CHANGE THROUGH TIME AT SAN MARTIN TILCAJETE
DESCRIPTION:Social evolutionary transformation involves and affects all levels of human society\, including households. The formation of a state-level society at the Tilcajete sites has been documented through extensive horizontal excavations focused on the civic-ceremonial buildings at a two Formative Period sites in the southern branch of the Oaxaca Valley. This paper presents findings from 2 seasons of work in 2014 and 2016 focused on the residential sectors at El Mogote\, occupied during the Early Monte Albán I phase (500-300 B.C.) and El Palenque\, occupied during the Late Monte Albán I phase (300-100 B.C.). I examine residential variability within each site as well as change through time. I argue that the timing and nature of changes to residential architecture\, activities\, and assemblages reflect the dynamic role household decisions played in the sociopolitical transformations at the sites.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:CJS Noon Lecture Series | The Culture of Free Print in Early Modern Japan
DESCRIPTION:Despite the increasing popularity of studies of early modern Japanese print culture\, the field has primarily restricted itself to examinations of the commercial print industry—a bias that has come at the price of ignoring a wide variety of non-profit publications. This lecture will focus on two Kansai region case studies of freely distributed print (sein) to show that it was not the trivial and ephemeral genre that current research makes it out to be. Rather\, it represents a vast repository of voices seeking an audience for messages they considered to be of urgent and long-lasting importance. \n    \nNiels Van Steenpaal is an associate professor of Japanese History at Kyoto University. He is a cultural and intellectual historian with a primary research interest in “moral culture”\, a term that he uses to describe the pathways\, processes and media through which morality and (material) culture mutually influence each other.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Student Arithmetic
DESCRIPTION:An elliptic curve over C is said to have complex multiplication (CM) if it has more endomorphisms than multiplication by integers. In this talk\, we will discuss the basic properties of CM curves and their relation with the class field theory of imaginary quadratic fields. Time permitting\, I hope to sketch the l-adic proof of the integrality of j-invariant\, a result related to the \"conincidence\" that e^{pi sqrt(163)} is very close to an integer. The idea is to use Neron-Ogg-Shafarevich criterion and local class field theory to show that any CM curve has good reduction after some base change\, which is equivalent to having an integral j-invariant. This talk is aimed for learning\, so I will try to give as many details and examples as possible.\n\nReference: Silverman AEC 1 and 2. Speaker(s): Yifeng Huang (UM)

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:Special Lecture: Unveiling the Mysteries of Past Climate\, Oceans\, and Life Using Novel Isotopic Techniques
DESCRIPTION:Stable isotopes of carbonate have long been used to reconstruct past climate and environmental conditions. The recent development of the clumped isotope paleothermometer has expanded the range of possible applications of these isotopic techniques to cover more environments and time periods. My research uses these isotopic tools to reconstruct past climate and ocean conditions during times of dynamic climate change. The end of the Cretaceous period was marked by turmoil with the massive Deccan Traps volcanic event and the Chicxulub meteorite impact combining to create the most famous of the “Big Five” mass extinctions. I will show new climate records from multiple localities spanning these final few tumultuous million years\, present evidence of volcanism-induced climate change\, and link these climate changes to extinction patterns. I will put these impressive climate shifts in the context of background climate conditions at the time through a global temperature dataset. Finally\, I will present an investigation of intriguing isotopic results from one site that reveal information about the life cycle of an extinct bivalve species and demonstrate the breadth of possible applications of these isotopic techniques.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:CM Theory Seminars | Superconductivity Mediated by Quantum Critical Antiferromagnetic Fluctuations: The Rise and Fall of Hot Spots
DESCRIPTION:The maximum transition temperature Tc observed in the phase diagrams of several unconventional superconductors takes place in the vicinity of a putative antiferromagnetic quantum critical point. This observation motivated the theoretical proposal that superconductivity in these systems may be driven by quantum critical fluctuations\, which in turn can also promote non-Fermi liquid behavior. In this talk\, we present a combined analytical and sign-problem-free Quantum Monte Carlo investigation of the spin-fermion model – a widely studied low-energy model for the interplay between superconductivity and magnetic fluctuations. By engineering a series of band dispersions that interpolate between near-nested and open Fermi surfaces\, and by also varying the strength of the spin-fermion interaction\, we find that the hot spots of the Fermi surface provide the dominant contribution to the pairing instability in this model. We show that the analytical expressions for Tc and for the pairing susceptibility\, obtained within a large-N Eliashberg approximation to the spin-fermion model\, agree well with the Quantum Monte Carlo data\, even in the regime of interactions comparable to the electronic bandwidth.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Commutative Algebra
DESCRIPTION:In this talk we consider a normal toric algebra R over a field of characteristic p >0. The module M of p^e-th roots of R is then the direct sum of so-called conic modules. With a quite combinatorial method we construct certain complexes of conic modules over R and explain how these yield projective resolutions of simple modules over the endomorphism ring End_R(M).\nThus we obtain a bound on the global dimension of End_R(M)\, which shows that this endomorphism ring is a noncommutative resolution of singularities (NCR) of R (or Spec(R)). This is joint work with Greg Muller and Karen E. Smith. Speaker(s): Eleonore Faber (University of Michigan)

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:The Annual Zora Neale Hurston Lecture
DESCRIPTION:Two generations of scholarship rightly upended the notion that slavery and segregation left a people crippled by a subordinate place in the social order. Scholarly focus has been on resistance\, resilience\, and resolve.  Yet\, while resilient\, African Americans were no less vulnerable to depression\, psychosis and other expressions of mental illness. Aided by the release of hundreds of files from Central State Hospital in Petersburg\, Virginia\, Earl Lewis takes a look at post-Civil War African Americans in Virginia struggling to cope with the demons within. In this work\, which is part of a larger study of race\, mental illness and mental health\, he begins to examine the black insane and the institutions that were built to contain them during the formative years of Jim Crow America.

SUMMARY:Conference / Symposium:Conference: Standing with Spain: Anti-Fascist Student Activism and the Spanish Civil War
DESCRIPTION:From 1936 to 1939\, large numbers of U-M students mobilized to support the Spanish Republic as it fought a military uprising backed by Hitler and Mussolini. They joined an international movement that sought to make Spain the “tomb of fascism.” In the Michigan Daily\, news of the Spanish war unfolded on the front pages\, and debates erupted in the op-ed section. The Student Senate passed a resolution urging the U.S. government to lift the embargo on selling arms to Spain. Students formed an aid committee\, held rallies\, and raised funds to send an ambulance to Spain. Three students volunteered for the Abraham Lincoln Brigade and fought in Spain\, one of whom would never return. In this conference students will present their original research on anti-fascist student activism at U-M.\n\nAll events are free and open to the public.\n\nThursday\, March 23\n\n4:00pm – Lecture and piano recital by María Isabel Pérez Dobarro: “Music of the Republic and Spanish Civil War” (Michigan League\, Koessler Room)\n5:20pm – Reception\n6:30pm – Screening of film: Invisible Heroes: African Americans in the Spanish Civil War\, followed by a discussion with the co-director Alfonso Domingo (Ann Arbor District Library\, Multi-purpose Room)\n\nFriday\, March 24 (Michigan League\, Concourse and Vandenberg Room)\n\n11:00am – Coffee and snacks\n11:30am - 12:30pm – Panel I: Catholicism and Anti-Clericalism and the Spanish Civil War\n12:30 - 1:30pm – Lunch\n1:30 - 3:30pm – Panel II: Michigan Volunteers in the Abraham Lincoln Brigade\n3:30pm – Coffee break\n4:00 - 5:20pm – Keynote address I by Peter N.

SUMMARY:Other:Conformations and Dynamics of Protein Molecular Recognition 
DESCRIPTION:Protein dynamics\, the population of and interconversion among multiple states\, are often evoked to explain function.  The experimental characterization of protein dynamics to fully uncover their role however is challenged by both the spatial heterogeneity of proteins and the rapid interconversion of potentially important conformational states.  Our group combines the inherent temporal resolution of linear and two-dimensional infrared spectroscopy with the spatial resolution afforded by site-selective incorporation of vibrational reporter groups that provide frequency-resolved absorptions to characterize rapidly occurring changes in local environments in proteins.  I will share several vignettes about our application of this approach toward understanding the molecular recognition of protein systems:  Src homology 3 domain recognition of proline-rich motifs\, cytochrome P450cam regioselectivity\, and plastocyanin recognition by cytochrome f.  Our studies resolve rapid dynamics at specific locations in the proteins and implicate their involvement in function. \nMegan Thielges (University of Indiana)

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:Donia Human Rights Center Lecture: Human Rights without Human Supremacism
DESCRIPTION:Several recent theories of human rights have appealed to the idea that human rights can be grounded on some account of human dignity. Critics of these `dignitarian’ accounts argue that the idea of human dignity is vague to the point of emptiness\, and lacks any determinate content. In fact\, however\, recent discussions of human dignity all make one very specific claim: namely\, that humans must not be treated in the same way we treat animals. Whatever else human dignity requires\, it requires that we give humans a much higher status than we give animals. In this respect\, dignitarian defenses of human rights follow in a long line of other supremacist accounts of human rights\, all of which are as concerned to argue that animals do not deserve rights as they are to argue that humans do deserve rights. I will suggest that the human rights project will be much stronger\, both philosophically and politically\, if it jettisons such supremacist defenses. There is growing evidence that the more people draw a sharp species hierarchy between humans and animals\, the more they draw hierarchies amongst humans\, weakening the rights of subaltern groups. Defending human rights on the backs of animals is not only philosophically suspect\, but politically self-defeating. \n    \nSpeaker Bio: \nWill Kymlicka received his B.A. in philosophy and politics from Queen's University in 1984\, and his D.Phil. in philosophy from Oxford University in 1987. He is the author of seven books published by Oxford University Press: Liberalism\, Community\, and Culture (1989)\, Contemporary Political Philosophy (1990\; second edition 2002)\,Multicultural Citizenship (1995)\, which was awarded the Macpherson Prize by the Canadian Political Science Assocation\, and the Bunche Award by the American Political Science Association\, Finding Our Way: Rethinking Ethnocultural Relations in Canada (1998)\, Politics in the Vernacular: Nationalism\, Multiculturalism and Citizenship (2001)\, Multicultural Odysseys: Navigating the New International Politics of Diversity (2007)\, which was awarded the North American Society for Social Philosophy’s 2007 Book Award\, and Zoopolis: A Political Theory of Animal Rights (2011)\, co-authored with Sue Donaldson\, which was awarded the 2013 Biennial Book Prize from the Canadian Philosophical Association. \n    \nHe has also edited or co-edited more than a dozen books on human rights\, minority rights\, multiculturalism\, political philosophy\, and other topics. \n    \nHe is currently the Canada Research Chair in Political Philosophy at Queen's University\, and a visiting professor in the Nationalism Studies program at the Central European University in Budapest. His works have been translated into 32 languages. He is a Fellow of the Royal Society of Canada\, of the Canadian Institute For Advanced Research\, and a Corresponding Fellow of the British Academy. From 2004-6\, he was the President of the American Society for Political and Legal Philosophy.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Economic Development: Nation Building Through Foreign Intervention: Evidence from Discontinuities in Military Strategies
DESCRIPTION:Abstract\n\nThis study uses discontinuities in U.S. strategies employed during the Vietnam War to estimate their causal impacts. It identifies the effects of bombing by exploiting rounding thresholds in an algorithm used to target air strikes. Bombing increased the military and political activities of the communist insurgency\, weakened local governance\, and reduced non-communist civic engagement. The study also exploits a spatial discontinuity across neighboring military regions\, which pursued different counterinsurgency strategies. A strategy emphasizing overwhelming firepower plausibly increased insurgent attacks and worsened attitudes towards the U.S. and South Vietnamese government\, relative to a hearts and minds oriented approach.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:EEB Thursday Seminar: Bayesian phylogenetic methods for synthesizing paleontological and neontological data
DESCRIPTION:Understanding macroevolutionary processes and evolution in deep time requires data from the fossil record. In recent years\, advances in phylogenetic inference methods have provided ways to integrate fossil and extant taxa. These approaches allow simultaneous estimation of the divergence times and phylogenetic relationships of extant and fossil species\, thus making full use of morphological and temporal data\, rather than just molecular sequence data from living species. I will highlight our recent and ongoing work using the fossilized birth-death process to estimate species phylogenies and divergence times. Both simulation and empirical studies demonstrate how making full use of available fossil data and properly modeling lineage sampling and diversification improve estimates of species divergence times. \n\nSponsored by the U-M Museum of Zoology Theodore H.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:EIHS Lecture: \"What Can Blind People Tell Us About Race?\"
DESCRIPTION:In Blinded by Sight: Seeing Race Through the Eyes of the Blind\, Professor Obasogie explores a world that many assumed did not exist: race in the blind community. In this talk\, Obasogie will discuss his research with blind people about the role of race and racial perception in their everyday lives. What he finds is rather surprising: blind people understand and\, in a sense\, “see” race just like anyone else. So what does this mean for how we live and the laws that govern our society? Obasogie delves into these questions and uncovers how colorblindness in law\, public policy\, and culture will not lead to the racial utopia it promises. \n\nOsagie K. Obasogie is Haas Distinguished Chair and Professor of Bioethics at the University of California\, Berkeley\, in the Joint Medical Program and School of Public Health. He is also a Senior Fellow at the Center for Genetics and Society. Obasogie's scholarly interests include Constitutional law\, bioethics\, sociology of law\, and reproductive and genetic technologies. His writings have spanned both academic and public audiences\, with journal articles in venues such as the Law & Society Review\, University of Pennsylvania Journal of Constitutional Law\, Stanford Technology Law Review\, and the Journal of Law\, Medicine\, and Ethics along with commentaries in outlets including the New York Times\, Slate\, the Los Angeles Times\, Boston Globe\, San Francisco Chronicle\, Scientific American\, and New Scientist. His first book\, Blinded By Sight: Seeing Race Through the Eyes of the Blind (Stanford University Press) was awarded the Herbert Jacob Book Prize by the Law and Society Association and his second book Beyond Bioethics: Toward a New Biopolitics (with Marcy Darnovsky) is under contract with the University of California Press. Obasogie received his B.A. in Sociology and Political Science from Yale University\, his J.D. from Columbia Law School\, and his Ph.D. in Sociology from the University of California\, Berkeley.\n\nFree and open to the public. \n\nThis event is part of the Thursday Series of the Eisenberg Institute for Historical Studies. It is made possible by a generous contribution from Kenneth and Frances Aftel Eisenberg.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:New Negress Film Society: I am a Negress of Noteworthy Talent
DESCRIPTION:Originally formed to create community in an industry where Black women voices and stories are often suppressed\, the New Negress Film Society (NNFS) is a collective of five filmmakers — Frances Bodomo\, Dyani Douze\, Ja’Tovia Gary\, Chanelle Aponte Pearson\, and Stefani Saintonge — who are dedicated to exhibiting\, supporting\, and raising consciousness around work by marginalized filmmakers. The group’s primary focus is on works and perspectives that break boundaries in film — both politically and artistically — with a special emphasis on genres and topics that are traditionally challenging to fund\, create\, and exhibit. The members of NNFS work together to workshop film projects\, fundraise\, and build audience for their work. Regular screenings of films by collective members\, as well as works by emerging and established Black women filmmakers around the world\, fuel visibility for the NNFS mission: to raise awareness and build understanding around the challenges Black women filmmakers face within the film industry.\n\nIn partnership with the 55th Ann Arbor Film Festival.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:FAST Lecture | The Roman Middle Republic at Sant'Omobono: Drawing Conclusions\, Drafting New Questions
DESCRIPTION:Since their inadvertent discovery in 1937\, the twin temples of the Roman goddesses Fortuna and Mater Matuta have been the subject of intermittent archaeological investigation. Scholarly attention has been focused on the Archaic phases and\, more recently\, on the medieval church\, largely to the exclusion of what lies between. After six and a half years of work with the Sant’Omobono Project\, I am beginning to understand some aspects of this “intermediary” material\, despite the challenges of working on a site at which most of the preserved architecture is Republican in date\, yet\, paradoxically\, the majority of the excavated contexts pre- or postdate that period. I will sketch the architectural and cultic development of the temples during the Roman Middle Republic (ca. 4th–3rd c. BCE)\, underline currently known unknowns\, and map out possible next steps.\n\nReception 5:30 PM\, Lecture 6:00 PM.\n\nFAST lectures are free and open to the public.

SUMMARY:Conference / Symposium:Symposium on Violent Interactions between Law Enforcement and Black Americans
DESCRIPTION:Last summer\, Dallas trauma surgeon Brian H. Williams\, M.D.\, FACS\, found himself thrust into the middle of a national crisis. A peaceful protest about police treatment of African Americans had ended in bloodshed\, with 12 officers shot by a lone gunman. 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:Conference / Symposium:Conference: Standing with Spain: Anti-Fascist Student Activism and the Spanish Civil War
DESCRIPTION:From 1936 to 1939\, large numbers of U-M students mobilized to support the Spanish Republic as it fought a military uprising backed by Hitler and Mussolini. They joined an international movement that sought to make Spain the “tomb of fascism.” In the Michigan Daily\, news of the Spanish war unfolded on the front pages\, and debates erupted in the op-ed section. The Student Senate passed a resolution urging the U.S. government to lift the embargo on selling arms to Spain. Students formed an aid committee\, held rallies\, and raised funds to send an ambulance to Spain. Three students volunteered for the Abraham Lincoln Brigade and fought in Spain\, one of whom would never return. In this conference students will present their original research on anti-fascist student activism at U-M.\n\nAll events are free and open to the public.\n\nThursday\, March 23\n\n4:00pm – Lecture and piano recital by María Isabel Pérez Dobarro: “Music of the Republic and Spanish Civil War” (Michigan League\, Koessler Room)\n5:20pm – Reception\n6:30pm – Screening of film: Invisible Heroes: African Americans in the Spanish Civil War\, followed by a discussion with the co-director Alfonso Domingo (Ann Arbor District Library\, Multi-purpose Room)\n\nFriday\, March 24 (Michigan League\, Concourse and Vandenberg Room)\n\n11:00am – Coffee and snacks\n11:30am - 12:30pm – Panel I: Catholicism and Anti-Clericalism and the Spanish Civil War\n12:30 - 1:30pm – Lunch\n1:30 - 3:30pm – Panel II: Michigan Volunteers in the Abraham Lincoln Brigade\n3:30pm – Coffee break\n4:00 - 5:20pm – Keynote address I by Peter N.

SUMMARY:Film Screening:100 Years of DaDa
DESCRIPTION:A short film program curated by John Canciani and Aline Juchler (Internationale Kurzfilmtage Winterthur) The selection contains clusters with dialogues between the original Dadaist films and their contemporary counterparts. Dada is everything and nothing\; Dada is dead\; Dada is alive\; Dada is a well-meaning contradiction. It was politically in reaction to current events and sometimes playfully in search of new art forms. With the newer works screening in response to the original Dada films\, we ask whether contemporary filmmakers are able to evoke the spirit of Dada: do their films simply exhibit formal similarities or do they come from kindred spirits?\n\nTyler Whitney (German Studies) will give a short introduction before the screening.

SUMMARY:Performance:Darrell Scott
DESCRIPTION:In the words of the Boston Globe\, Darrell Scott \"is to Nashville what Richard Thompson is to Britain and what Paul Brady is to Ireland.\" Most artists fall toward one side or the other of the divide between great songwriting and instrumental virtuosity\, but in the songs of Darrell Scott words\, music\, and instruments are inseparable. Darrell has written some of the sharpest country songs around (like the Dixie Chicks' \"Long Time Gone\")\, and he can play just about anything with strings. He's toured with Robert Plant's bluegrass-oriented Band of Joy\, and\, as a singer\, songwriter\, and instrumentalist he's been an artist to whom many in Nashville turn for a shot of inspiration. He comes to Michigan with a new album\, \"Couchville Sessions.\" He makes most of his music at a home studio in rural Tennessee. If you've never seen Darrell Scott\, he's something of an undiscovered treasure of American music\, and he's at his best in intimate settings like The Ark.

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:Lecture / Discussion:Drug Discovery Seminar: \"A Novel Pan-ALDH1A Inhibitor Induces Necroptosis in Ovarian Cancer Stem-Like cells and Synergizes with Chemotherapy to Improve Outcomes\"
DESCRIPTION:Dr. Buckanovich recently demonstrated that Aldehyde dehydrogenase (ALDH) activity and the stem cell marker CD133 can be used to define an ovarian cancer cell differentiation hierarchy. He demonstrated that even small increases in multipotent ALDHbrightCD133+ cancer stem-like cells (CSC) significantly increase chemotherapy resistance and tumor initiation capacity. ALDH1A family members (ALDH1A1\, 1A2\, and 1A3) have been implicated as the primary enzymes identifying CSC and have been strongly linked with chemotherapy resistance. Given the expression of ALDH1A family members in CSC and their role in chemotherapy resistance\, he hypothesized they could be important therapeutic targets.\n\nDr. Buckanovich developed a panel of novel ALDH inhibitors (ALDHi) and identified a DEAB analog 673540 (673A) which inhibits all three ALDH1A1 enzymes (IC50 ~220nM).  Pan-ALDH1A inhibition\, induced necroptotic cell death specifically in ALDHbright and CD133+ ovarian CSC. 673A induced necroptosis was driven by the induction of the mitochondrial uncoupling proteins\, UCP1 and UCP3\, and reduction in OXPHOS capacity. Necroptosis was caspase and RIP1 independent\, but is associated with MLKL translocation to membrane\, and DRP1 activation and translocation to mitochondria. 673A therapy was highly synergistic with chemotherapy\, reducing tumor initiation capacity\, and resulting in a 60% tumor cure rate in multiple tumor models in-vivo.\n\nALDHi are highly active in experimental models of ovarian cancer. As ALDHi induce metabolic necroptosis\, ALDHi are active in apoptosis resistant ovarian cancer cell lines. These studies support the development of ALDHi as novel therapeutics for ovarian cancer.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Here and There
DESCRIPTION:\"Here and There\"  looks at the problems of extreme poverty\, and includes artist Tracey Snelling's signature piece \"One Thousand Shacks.\" New works--created on campus during her three-week residency--will examine these issues in the US\, how they relate to location and\, at times\, the disenfranchisement of large groups of people for the sake of big business\, political clout\, and power. \n\nCurator's Statement:\n\nTo meet artist Tracey Snelling evokes the sensation of a strong willed breeze determined to open a backyard door. \n\nAs an artist and person\, she is down to earth\, direct\, contemporary\, and moving through it all with volition. \n\nSnelling’s artistic practice originally focused on photography as a medium\, but soon evolved to include her construction of sculptures based upon cities and towns\, strip malls and urban housing. \n\nShe refers to her three dimensional work as sculptural rather than diorama or model making because she isn’t particularly interested in the exact rendering of location\, or the contextualization of place. Instead\, she taps into the energy of community and its humanness—restless\, frenetic\, din\, a choir\, extending beyond the confines of walls. \n\nSnelling’s representations are neither judgmental nor opportunistic. They unaffectedly and objectively offer a multidimensional sketch of a place in time\, how we occupy space. \n\nHer signature piece \"One Thousand Shacks\" (included in this exhibition along with new work created during her her residency here) pushes up against the challenges of economic inequalities\, racial biases\, and imposed class divisions that often limit the options available to so many people. Concurrently\, the installation embraces our everyday existence expressed through Snelling’s exuberant palette\, bold graphics\, video and neon. \n\nConceptually\, Snelling’s stacking method first creates an exalted “big picture” with a myriad of colors\, image\, text\, sound and light. The counterpoint in scale soon immerses the viewer into each small world. With this shift\, the onlooker becomes the active participant\, the occupant in situ\, adding the trappings of their own experiences to each tableau. It is this shift that forces the viewer into a new way of seeing from varying perspectives.\n\nOn the one hand\, the artist’s sculptures allude to our desire for refuge\, a private domain that allows us to be ourselves. On the other\, the overall composition reaffirms it is imperative that we co-exist with one another respectfully\, forge relationships\, understanding our marked differences. It is diversity—the unique and often disparate combination of things\, the cacophony of it all\, that activates communities and public space.\n\nSnelling’s constructions literally build a way out\, one on top of another\, charged with the undercurrent of the way we live. They emphasize our universal longing to find a place called home\, and be accepted\, built on the foundation of one and of many. \n–Amanda Krugliak\, Arts Curator\, Institute for the Humanities\n\nAbout Tracey Snelling:\nThrough the use of sculpture\, photography\, video\, and large-scale installation\, Tracey Snelling gives her impression of a place\, its people and their experience. Often\, the cinematic image stands in for real life as it plays out behind windows in the buildings\, sometimes creating a sense of mystery\, other times stressing the mundane. Snelling’s work derives from voyeurism\, film noir\, and geographical and architectural location. Within this idea of location\, themes develop that transport observation into the realm of storytelling\, with reality and sociological study being the focus. Snelling had exhibited in international galleries\, museums and institutions\, including the The Royal Museum of Fine Arts\, Belgium\; Palazzo Reale\, Milan\; Museum of Arts and Design\, New York\; Kunstmuseen Krefeld Germany\; El Museo de Arte de Banco de la Republica\, Bogota\; the Stenersen Museet\, Oslo\, and the Sundance Film Festival. Her short films have screened at the San Francisco International Film Festival\, the Thessaloniki International Film Festival\, Circuito Off in Venice\, Italy\, and the Arquiteturas Film Festival Lisboa in Portugal. She also received a 2015 Joan Mitchell Painters and Sculptors Grant. Snelling lives and works in Oakland\, California and Berlin\, Germany.

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:Conference / Symposium:Conference: Standing with Spain: Anti-Fascist Student Activism and the Spanish Civil War
DESCRIPTION:From 1936 to 1939\, large numbers of U-M students mobilized to support the Spanish Republic as it fought a military uprising backed by Hitler and Mussolini. They joined an international movement that sought to make Spain the “tomb of fascism.” In the Michigan Daily\, news of the Spanish war unfolded on the front pages\, and debates erupted in the op-ed section. The Student Senate passed a resolution urging the U.S. government to lift the embargo on selling arms to Spain. Students formed an aid committee\, held rallies\, and raised funds to send an ambulance to Spain. Three students volunteered for the Abraham Lincoln Brigade and fought in Spain\, one of whom would never return. In this conference students will present their original research on anti-fascist student activism at U-M.\n\nAll events are free and open to the public.\n\nThursday\, March 23\n\n4:00pm – Lecture and piano recital by María Isabel Pérez Dobarro: “Music of the Republic and Spanish Civil War” (Michigan League\, Koessler Room)\n5:20pm – Reception\n6:30pm – Screening of film: Invisible Heroes: African Americans in the Spanish Civil War\, followed by a discussion with the co-director Alfonso Domingo (Ann Arbor District Library\, Multi-purpose Room)\n\nFriday\, March 24 (Michigan League\, Concourse and Vandenberg Room)\n\n11:00am – Coffee and snacks\n11:30am - 12:30pm – Panel I: Catholicism and Anti-Clericalism and the Spanish Civil War\n12:30 - 1:30pm – Lunch\n1:30 - 3:30pm – Panel II: Michigan Volunteers in the Abraham Lincoln Brigade\n3:30pm – Coffee break\n4:00 - 5:20pm – Keynote address I by Peter N.

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:Colloquium Series
DESCRIPTION: While wheeled vehicles are very efficient on even terrains\, legged robots can outperform them on uneven terrains and where there is no continuous path of travel (such as stairs and ladders). This versatility of legged robots\, however\, brings challenges such as obtaining stable walking and running gaits. A type of walking gait\, which is the focus of this talk\, is a periodic one\, which can be associated with a periodic orbit of the dynamic model that represents the legged robot. The common method for obtaining such periodic orbits is conducting a numerical search for fixed points of a PoincarÃƒÂ© map. However\, as the number of degrees of freedom of the system grows\, such numerical search becomes computationally expensive because in each search trial the dynamic equations need to be integrated. Moreover\, the numerical search for periodic orbits is in general sensitive to model errors. I will show that we can overcome these issues by using the Ã¢ï¿½ï¿½Symmetry Method for Limit Cycle WalkingÃ¢ï¿½ï¿½\, which relaxes the need to search for periodic orbits\, and at the same time\, gives rise to limit cycles that are robust to model errors. Mathematically\, the symmetry method is described in the context of Symmetric Hybrid Systems. I will show that legged robots\, due to the symmetries that they possess\, are symmetric hybrid systems and hence\, have an infinite number (indeed\, a continuum) of periodic orbits that can be identified easily. I will present the experimental results of the symmetry method on the humanoid robot COMAN at the Biorobotics laboratory of EPFL.\n Speaker(s): Hamed Razavi (ETH)

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:EIHS Workshop: Are Historians Blinded by Sight?
DESCRIPTION:What does it mean to see? How do historians rely on the visual to interpret the past? Is the visual record misleading? These questions serve as a launching off point for this workshop\, which considers the relationship between sight and historical interpretation\, between visual materials and historical research. In an ocularcentric world were visual practices are privileged over other sensory modes\, historians regularly search for meaning through the visual —photographs\, manuscripts\, letters—in the archives. Drawing on ways of seeing and researching across global contexts\, our panelists explore the possibilities and pitfalls of interpreting the past through visual representations.\n\nPanelists include: \nSaquib Usman  (PhD student\, Anthropology\, University of Michigan) \nTara Weinberg  (PhD student\, History\, University of Michigan) \nXiaoyue Li (PhD student\, History\, University of Michigan) \nOsagie K. Obasogie  (commentator\, Haas Distinguished Chair and Professor of Bioethics\, University of California\, Berkeley)\nStephen A. Berrey  (chair\; Associate Professor of History\, University of Michigan) \n\nFree and open to the public. Lunch provided. \n\nThis event is part of the Friday Series of the Eisenberg Institute for Historical Studies. It is made possible by a generous contribution from Kenneth and Frances Aftel Eisenberg.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Taste Perception and Internal Nutrient Sensing in Drosophila
DESCRIPTION:The fly brain harbors a small subset of neurons capable of gluconeogenesis. These neurons express the critically important enzyme Glucose­6­Phosphatase (green)\, and a subset of them also express NPY\, a neuropeptide implicated in feeding regulation\, fat metabolism\, and numerous other processes. Neural gluconeogenesis regulates glucose and glycogen levels in flies that experience starvation\, revealing an novel mechanism of metabolic regulation of energy carriers.\n\nHost:  Monica Dus

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:SPECIAL EVENT
DESCRIPTION:Boij-Soderberg theory characterizes syzygies of graded modules and sheaves on projective space. This thesis is concerned with extending the theory to the setting of GLk-equivariant modules and sheaves on Grassmannians Gr(k\, Cn). Algebraically\, we study modules over a polynomial ring in kn variables\, thought of as the entries of a k X n matrix. The goal is to characterize equivariant Betti tables of such modules and\, dually\, cohomology tables of sheaves on Gr(k\, Cn).\nWe give equivariant analogues of two important features of the ordinary theory: the Herzog-Kuhl equations and the pairing between Betti and cohomology tables. As a necessary step and fundamental base case\, we consider resolutions and certain more general complexes for the case of square matrices. \nOur statements specialize to those of ordinary Boij-Soderberg theory when k = 1. Our proof of the equivariant pairing gives a new proof in the graded setting: it relies on finding perfect matchings on certain graphs associated to Betti tables. Speaker(s): Jake Levinson (UM)

SUMMARY:Presentation:Developmental Pathways to Conduct Disorder: Implications of the DSM-5 Specifier “with Limited Prosocial Emotions”
DESCRIPTION:Sponsored by the Clinical and Developmental Areas of Psychology\n \nAbstract: Children and adolescents who show a serious pattern of antisocial and aggressive behavior and who meet the diagnostic criteria for Conduct Disorder represent a serious mental health concern. Their behavior places them at risk for a number of significant educational\, social\, and legal difficulties and their behavior can lead to serious consequences to the victims of their antisocial and aggressive acts.  The current presentation will focus on research charting the various developmental pathways that can lead to Conduct Disorder\, focusing especially on one pathway that involves failures in the normal development of empathy\, guilt\, and other forms of prosocial emotions.  Children in this pathway often show a particularly severe\, aggressive\, and stable pattern of behavior\, which has led to its inclusion in recent diagnostic criteria for Conduct Disorder.  The current talk will also focus on the implications of this research for identifying children in need of early intervention for their behavior problems and for designing effective interventions for children and adolescents with Conduct Disorder in mental health clinics\, schools\, or the juvenile justice system.\n \nPaul J. Frick\, Ph.D is the Roy Crumpler Memorial Chair in the Department of Psychology at the Louisiana State University and professor in Learning Science Institute of Australia at Australian Catholic University. Dr. Frick has published over 220 manuscripts in either edited books or peer-reviewed publications and he is the author of 6 additional books and test manuals.  A continuing line of research focuses on understanding the different pathways through which youth develop serious antisocial behavior and aggression and the implications of this research for assessment\, treatment\, and public policy. His work has been funded by the National Institute of Mental Health\, Office of Juvenile Justice and Delinquency Prevention\, and the John T. and Catherine D. MacArthur Foundation. In 2004\, Dr. Frick was awarded an Honorary Doctorate from Orebro University in Orebro\, Sweden in recognition of his research contributions in psychology. In 2008\, he received the MacArthur Foundation’s Champion for Change in Juvenile Justice Award for the state of Louisiana.  Dr. Frick was awarded the 2015 Robert D. Hare Lifetime Achievement Award from the Society for the Scientific Study of Psychopathy.  Dr. Frick has been the President of the Society for the Scientific Study of Psychopathy (2009-2011). He is currently the editor of the Journal of Abnormal Child Psychology\, the official journal of the International Society for Research on Child and Adolescent Psychopathology.  He was the editor of the Journal of Clinical Child and Adolescent Psychology (2007-2011)\, the official journal of Division 53 of the American Psychological Association which is the Society of Clinical Child and Adolescent Psychology.  Dr. Frick also was a member of the American Psychiatric Association’s DSM-V Workgroup for ADHD and the Disruptive Behavior Disorders (2007-2012).

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:GDS Colloquium Series: Winckelmann and the Roman Art Market
DESCRIPTION:All too often the career of J. J. Winckelmann has been isolated from the wider context which made his career possible: the libertine culture of aristocratic neo-classicism which spread from Italy to France\, England\, and the Germanies in the eighteenth century and\, more importantly\, the booming Roman art market which served the Grand Tour.  Winckelmann\, who had seen almost nothing but Baroque (and medieval) art before arriving in Rome\, spent most of his first years in Rome among artists and restorers\, who taught him a great deal about the technicalities of classical art.  Winckelmann befriended many restorers—including Rome’s most successful\, Bartholomeo Cavaceppi—as well as art dealers\, men for whom the discernment of styles\, authenticity\, and iconography were professional and vital requirements.  We may not ever know just how much Winckelmann learned from the Roman makers and collectors of casts\, copies\, and forgeries\, or from the dealers\, but it was certainly a significant amount.  Finally\, we need to see Winckelmann’s work too in the context of mercantile attempts to make ‘national’ luxury goods salable on wider European and world markets\; the porcelain industry\, with its emphasis on ‘whiteness\,’ is especially relevant to the making of neoclassical taste. \n\nFor a copy of the paper\, please contact Julia Hell at hell@umich.edu.\n\nFree and open to the Public.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:​\"Through Revolutionary Lenses: The African Hero in the Atlantic World of Enlightenment\"
DESCRIPTION:​Lafont will take the opportunity of this talk to explore the ways in which fine arts and print culture dealt with the Revolutionary and Atlantic Black Subject of 1800. Questions will include: Did the African Hero of the American\, French and Haitian Revolutions get images and portraits illustrating their contributions to those political emancipations? How specific were their iconographies regarding race\, national context and medium? Is there any material and visual testimony of the Black empowerment in the late eighteenth-century and what does it mean?

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:What Knowers Know Well: Why Feminism Matters to Archaeology
DESCRIPTION:Neglected questions about women\, gender\, and sexuality have been on the archaeological agenda since the late 1980s\, and gender-inclusive archaeology has transformed what we know about the past. But some of its strongest advocates deny that they are engaged in feminist scholarship or in any way influenced by feminist politics. Professor Wylie questions their conviction that research is only credible if it is ‘value free’\, and argues that the critical insights of a feminist standpoint are a crucial resource for empirical research\, and not just in archaeology. Rather than a ‘view from nowhere’\, she makes the case for rethinking ideals of objectivity in terms that counter epistemic injustice and mobilize the situated interests and experience of diverse knowers.\n\nAlison Wylie is a Professor of Philosophy at the Universities of Washington (Seattle) and Durham (UK). Her focal interests as a philosopher of science are questions about how we know what we (think) we know\, especially as these arise in archaeological practice and in feminist social science. In both contexts a flashpoint for internal debate has been a cluster of epistemic claims that many see as profoundly destabilizing: that what counts as evidence is inescapably an interpretive construct\, and that social\, and that contextual values play in all aspects of inquiry. Wylie argues that polarized reactions to constructionist and relativist challenges miss the point\; we need to start with the messy realities of inquiry and consider how situated knowers do their best work. Taking up this challenge she asks: What counts as evidence? and\, How are research communities enriched when they cultivate a diversity of experience\, angles of vision\, skills and insight? Her publications Thinking from Things (2002) and\, with archaeologist Bob Chapman\, Material Evidence (co-edited\, 2015) and Evidential Reasoning in Archaeology (co-authored\, 2016)\; articles on collaborative practice in archaeology (e.g.\, in Objectivity in Science 2015)\; and several recent papers on feminist standpoint theory\, including the 2012 Presidential Address to the American Philosophical Association\, “Feminist Philosophy of Science: Standpoint Matters.”\n\nThis event is part of IRWG's Feminist Science Studies program.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Applied Interdisciplinary Mathematics
DESCRIPTION:We will discuss some results on the motion of interfaces by its mean curvature in heterogeneous media\, in both continuous and discrete environments. Motion by mean curvature is a prototype of geometric motion which is a gradient flow (of the surface energy).  Heterogeneity leads to wiggling energy landscape. Their combination gives rise to interesting questions about surface dynamics\, pinning-depinning phenomena and the underlying pattern formation.  The above can be demonstrated even in very simple spin systems with nearest and next-nearest neighbor interactions. Speaker(s): Aaron Yip (Purdue University)

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Geometry
DESCRIPTION:The lecture consists of several mini-talks with just definitions\, motivations\, some ideas of proofs\, and open problems. I will discuss some (hardly all) of the following topics. \n\n   1. A survival guide for feeble fish. How fish can get from A to B in turbulent waters which maybe much fasted than the locomotive speed of the fish (provided that there is no large-scale drift of the water flow)? This is related to homogenization of G-equation which is believed to govern many combustion processes. Based on a joint work with S. Ivanov and A. Novikov.\n   2. One of the greatest achievements in Dynamics in the XX century is the KAM Theory. It says that a small perturbation of a non-degenerate completely integrable system still has an overwhelming measure of invariant tori with quasi-periodic dynamics. What happens outside KAM tori has been remaining a great mystery. The main quantitate invariants so far are entropies.  It is easy\, by modern standards\, to show that topological entropy can be positive. It lives\, however\, on a zero measure set. We are now able to show that metric entropy can become infinite too\, under arbitrarily small C^{infty} perturbations\, answering an old-standing problem of Kolmogorov. Furthermore\, a slightly modified construction resolves another longstanding problem of the existence of entropy non-expansive systems. In these modified examples positive positive metric entropy is generated in arbitrarily small tubular neighborhood of one trajectory. Joint with S. Ivanov and D. Chen.\n   3. \"What is inside?\" Imagine a body with some intrinsic structure\, which\, as usual\, can be thought of as a metric. One knows distances between boundary points  (say\, by sending waves and measuring how long it takes them to reach specific points on the boundary). One may think of medical imaging or geophysics. This topic is related to minimal fillings and surfaces in normed spaces.  Joint work with S. Ivanov.\n   4. How well can we approximate an (unbounded) space by a metric graph whose parameters (degree of vertices\, length of edges\, density of vertices etc) are uniformly bounded? We want to control the ADDITIVE error. Some answers (the most difficult one is for $\R^2$) are given using dynamics and Fourier series. Joint with Ivanov. \n   5.How can one discretize elliptic PDEs without using finite elements\, triangulations and such? On manifolds and even reasonably  \"nice\"mm spaces. A notion of rho-Laplacian and its stability. Joint with S. Ivanov and Kurylev.\n   6. A solution of Buseman's problem on minimality of surface area in normed spaces for 2-D surfaces (including a new formula for the area of a convex polygon). joint with S. Ivanov.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Combinatorics
DESCRIPTION:The KP equation is a two-dimensional non-linear differential equation\, which provides an excellent model for resonant interactions among standing-water waves.  Kodama and Williams showed a remarkable relationship between soliton graphs\, which encode the asymptotic behavior of line soliton solutions of the KP equation\, and Postnikov's combinatorial theory of the totally nonnegative Grassmannian.  Line soliton solutions correspond to points in the Grassmannian\, and soliton graphs which come from the totally positive Grassmannian turn out to be examples of Postnikov's plabic graphs.  In addition\, Kodama and Williams showed that soliton graphs corresponding to the totally positive part of the Grassmannian of planes have a nice combinatorial interpretation interms of triangulations.  In this talk\, we use triangulations to encode soliton graphs for the totally positive part of Gr(k\,n) for all k.  In the process\, we recover Kodama and Williams' result that these soliton graphs are in fact plabic graphs.  This project is joint with Yuji Kodama and Jihui Huang.\n Speaker(s): Rachel Karpman (Ohio State University)

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:Smith Lecture: Reconstruction of Topography and Lithosphere Dynamics Within the Basin and Range of Western North America Since 36 Ma
DESCRIPTION:The complex deformation history of the western U.S. since 36 Ma involved a dramatic transition from a subduction-dominated to a transform-dominated margin\, with widespread extension within the interior Basin and Range region. This deformation history altered the topography and drainage patterns and basins throughout the southwest. We perform a comprehensive analysis of the dynamics of the plate boundary zone in the western U.S. since 36 Ma\, focusing on the U.S. Basin and Range region\, with the goal of understanding the link between mantle dynamics\, crustal deformation history\, and topography evolution. Using position estimates from McQuarrie and Wernicke [2005]\, we determine lithospheric strain rates through time and integrate these to determine estimates of crustal thickness evolution. Final estimates of crustal thickness and topography show prominent ‘Nevadaplano’ and Mogollon highland regions that would have resulted from Sevier through Laramide aged shortening. The locations of Cordilleran metamorphic core complexes lie within these zones of reconstructed thick crustal welts\, in agreement with Coney and Harms [1984]. Using reconstructions of topography and crustal thickness we investigate solutions to vertically integrated force-balance equations for the lithosphere through time. Results show that deviatoric stresses associated with gravitational collapse of topography are consistent with early crustal stretch directions along the belt of metamorphic core complexes within the southwestern Cordillera. We also solve for stress field boundary conditions through time\, such that the contributions from crustal body forces\, together with boundary condition effects\, can provide a total stress field that is consistent with the orientations of crustal strain through time. The boundary conditions suggest the need for additional extension imposed\, first\, on the Great Basin (between 36 – 20 Ma) and then on the southern Basin and Range (25 – 15 Ma). These calculations are consistent with the proposed slab rollback history of the Farallon slab [Dickinson\, 2002]. Between 15 Ma and 5 Ma the boundary conditions are dominated by stresses associated with the development of the strike-slip plate boundary zone in California. Our calculations for the dynamics over time within the southwestern Cordillera suggest that following Sevier and Laramide shortening events\, the lithosphere must have undergone dramatic weakening. This weakening\, together with the changing boundary conditions\, led to a dramatic collapse of a mountain belt that rivaled the present-day Andes in elevation. The most likely weakening mechanism is associated with the introduction of heat\, fluids and volcanism\, which can be linked to the slab rollback history of the Farallon plate.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Biophysics Seminar: Professor Ned Wingreen\, Princeton University
DESCRIPTION:Abstract: Biologists have recently come to appreciate that eukaryotic cells are home to a multiplicity of non-membrane bound compartments\, many of which form and dissolve as needed for the cell to function. These dynamical “liquid droplets” enable many central cellular functions – from ribosome assembly\, to RNA regulation and storage\, to signaling and metabolism. While it is clear that these compartments represent a type of separated phase\, what controls their formation\, how specific biological components are included or excluded\, and how these structures influence physiological and biochemical processes remain largely mysterious. I will discuss recent experiments on phase separated droplets both in vitro and in vivo\, and will present theoretical results that highlight a novel “magic number” effect relevant to the formation and control of two-component phase separated liquid droplets.

SUMMARY:Other:Fluorinated bromodomains: Choosing the right halogen for small molecule discovery
DESCRIPTION:Protein-protein interaction inhibitor discovery has proven difficult due to the large surface area and dynamic interfaces of proteins.  To facilitate the early lead discovery rate\, I will first describe a rapid protein-based 19F NMR method for detecting protein-ligand interactions by screening low complexity molecules (fragments) as well as higher complexity molecules.  We label the aromatic amino acids with the highly sensitive fluorine atom\, due to the high conservation of aromatic residues at protein interfaces. We have tested the sensitivity\, accuracy\, and speed of this method with the protein interaction domain of CBP\, KIX\, screening 508 small molecule fragments. In the second part of the talk\, I will describe an extension and improvements in our method for the field of epigenetics targeting bromodomain-containing proteins Brd4\, BrdT and BPTF. These studies have led to the discovery of some of the first selective ligands for the bromodomain BPTF and new submicromolar ligands for Brd4. Finally\, I will address the synthesis\, development\, and application of two of our new chemical probes for studying epigenetic protein function\, including a new role for BPTF regulation of the oncogene\, c-Myc. The speed\, ease of interpretation\, and low concentration of protein needed for binding experiments affords a new method to discover and characterize both native and new ligands for bromodomains and may find utility in the study of additional epigenetic “reader” domains.\nWilliam Pomerantz (University of Minnesota)

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:Jane Stuart-Smith Colloquium
DESCRIPTION:Jane Stuart-Smith will present a talk entitled\, \"A tale of one city:  A sociophonetic study of 100+ years of Glaswegian vernacular.\"\n\nAbstract\nSociophonetic research unites the social and the phonetic in terms of theory\, method and practice (e.g. Foulkes and Docherty 2006\; Foulkes 2010). Insights can be gained from placing phonetic and phonological findings within their social context. Recent advances in phonetic methods can enhance our descriptions and understanding of speech in practice.  This talk illustrates the rewards of doing sociophonetic research by considering a case study which takes a particular sociological context\, Glasgow\, a large industrial city over the 20th century\, and examines phonological variation and change over the same period in its vernacular dialect (Stuart-Smith et al in press 2017\; Stuart-Smith et al in press 2017\; Sounds of the City). Specifically I will present findings from novel phonetic investigation into three areas of the consonantal system\, coda /r l/ (cf Stuart-Smith et al 2015)\, fricatives /s ʃ/ (cf Stuart-Smith 2007)\, and the stop voicing contrast /b d t d k g/ (cf Stuart-Smith et al 2015). The results demonstrate how sound changes are linked with the changing social context in which they occur for this speech community over time. They also show how the inclusion of social information can enhance our understanding of phonetic and phonological processes more generally.\n\nReferences\n\nFoulkes\, Paul\, and Gerard Docherty. 2006.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Student AIM Seminar
DESCRIPTION:\nIn this talk I am going to discuss the universal behaviours of of the semi-classical limit of the sine-Gordon equation. We consider a class of solutions with pure impulse initial data below threshold that decay at $|x|\to \infty$. We are particularty interested in a neighbourhood of the gradient catastrophy that contains both modulated plane waves and spikes. We aim to describe the solutions using special funtions. Besides the gradient catastrophe point (we think of it as a more degenerate point than other generic locations of phase transition)\, we are also intested in describing when the first time the phase transition appear for genral location and the behaviours of the solutions nearby. These phase transitions have universality in the sense that the space-time locations and solutions behave the same way in the asymptotic limit for different initial data chosen from the class we consider. The location only depends on very simple parameters. We use the Deift-Zhou steepest descent method for the analysis and the result is inspired by Tovbis-Bertola.

SUMMARY:Social / Informal Gathering:optiMize Spring Showcase 2017
DESCRIPTION:We hope you’ll join us for our annual optiMize Showcase to celebrate students working for sustainable impact!\n\nIn October\, we asked students to think of a problem in the world that needed to be addressed. We challenged them to ask themselves a simple question: “Why not me?”\n\nIn response\, 130 student-led project teams applied to the optiMize Challenge. Since then\, we’ve been working together every week to bring their ideas to life. From urban farming to health technology to STEM workshops for underserved girls\, these are some inspiring projects.\n\nAs summer approaches\, we’re announcing our fifth annual cohort of optiMize Fellows. We’ll award $200\,000 to 37 student Fellows across 19 project teams so they can work full-time on their social impact projects this summer.\n\nCome see their presentations at the Showcase and learn how you can start turning your own ideas into impact!\n\nIt’s sure to be an inspiring night. Bring friends!\n\nClick here to RSVP: https://www.facebook.com/events/246147775832689/

DESCRIPTION:Prison Creative Arts Project is a Community Partner for this screening\, which includes Broken -- The Women's Prison at Hoheneck by Volker Schlecht. Use discount code AAFF55_PCAP when ordering your tickets. Tickets available at aafilmfest.org .\n\nGabriele Stötzer and Birgit Willschütz were political inmates at Hoheneck Castle\, the most notorious women’s prison in East Germany. Their story is one of overcrowded cells\, despotic hierarchies\, ruthless everydays\, and the enduring effects of incarceration. Most of all\, however\, it is about the crushing pressure of forced labor. Prisoners at Hoheneck manufactured millions of pantyhose\, bed sheets\, and other products for West German retailers\, bringing enormous profits to both sides of the Iron Curtain.

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

SUMMARY:Conference / Symposium:Conference: Standing with Spain: Anti-Fascist Student Activism and the Spanish Civil War
DESCRIPTION:From 1936 to 1939\, large numbers of U-M students mobilized to support the Spanish Republic as it fought a military uprising backed by Hitler and Mussolini. They joined an international movement that sought to make Spain the “tomb of fascism.” In the Michigan Daily\, news of the Spanish war unfolded on the front pages\, and debates erupted in the op-ed section. The Student Senate passed a resolution urging the U.S. government to lift the embargo on selling arms to Spain. Students formed an aid committee\, held rallies\, and raised funds to send an ambulance to Spain. Three students volunteered for the Abraham Lincoln Brigade and fought in Spain\, one of whom would never return. In this conference students will present their original research on anti-fascist student activism at U-M.\n\nAll events are free and open to the public.\n\nThursday\, March 23\n\n4:00pm – Lecture and piano recital by María Isabel Pérez Dobarro: “Music of the Republic and Spanish Civil War” (Michigan League\, Koessler Room)\n5:20pm – Reception\n6:30pm – Screening of film: Invisible Heroes: African Americans in the Spanish Civil War\, followed by a discussion with the co-director Alfonso Domingo (Ann Arbor District Library\, Multi-purpose Room)\n\nFriday\, March 24 (Michigan League\, Concourse and Vandenberg Room)\n\n11:00am – Coffee and snacks\n11:30am - 12:30pm – Panel I: Catholicism and Anti-Clericalism and the Spanish Civil War\n12:30 - 1:30pm – Lunch\n1:30 - 3:30pm – Panel II: Michigan Volunteers in the Abraham Lincoln Brigade\n3:30pm – Coffee break\n4:00 - 5:20pm – Keynote address I by Peter N.

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:Performance:Lambchop
DESCRIPTION:It's been nearly two decades since Lambchop released its first album\, at the time pronouncing itself \"Nashville’s most f'ed-up country band.\" Provocative though it may have been\, the description made sense: at the heart of all the ruckus was a band at once defying and embracing the musical legacy of its hometown. Since then\, Lambchop has evolved into an accomplished ensemble\, touring Europe\, adding palpable depth and substance to singer-songwriter-guitarist Kurt Wagner’s songs—and the band sounds as commanding as ever on its new album\, \"For Love Often Turns Us Still\,\" officially titled \"FLOTUS.\" Lambchop may not sound in any conventional way like a country band (even the steel guitar\, once prominent\, is long gone from the band’s lineup)\, and yet the essential spirit of country music—the sound of someone just trying to make sense of life’s little ups and downs—remains present in its music. The new album is also home to a streak of digital blues. Come hear the longform \"In Care of 8675309\,\" which sounds like nothing else in Nashville\, or anywhere else for that matter.
