SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:Teach Out Series: Privacy\, Reputation\, and Identity in a Digital Age
DESCRIPTION:Reputation has long been prized. In its traditional form\, people who know something about you use this knowledge to form opinions. Their collective sense of who you are—your reputation—affects how people treat you: it shapes all of your social interactions.\n\nIn today's world\, additional knowledge about you resides in \"big data\" collected by individuals\, organizations\, companies\, and governments. Increasingly\, data about you are being processed by algorithms to draw conclusions: to form something like opinions. \n\nThis combination of data and algorithms creates a new digital reputation which increasingly shapes your life\, from recommending purchases and suggesting friends to prompting actions based solely on your digital footprint.\n\nWho gathers\, owns\, and controls this data? Where do they get it\, and how? How do they use it? Is it shared with people\, processed by algorithms\, used to construct your choices? What should we think about all of this?\n\nIn this Teach-Out we will consider questions of privacy\, surveillance\, reputation\, and identity using a case study approach. Learners will hear from experts and engage in conversation using real-world scenarios across multiple topic areas.\n\nTeach-Out.org

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Window Installation | Cosmogonic Tattoos
DESCRIPTION:In celebration of the University’s Bicentennial in 2017\, artist and professor Jim Cogswell has been invited by the Kelsey Museum of Archaeology and the University of Michigan Museum of Art to create a set of public window installations in response to the objects in their collections. Titled \"Cosmogonic Tattoos\,\" his project uses adhesive vinyl images applied in saturated colors to windows in the two buildings\, highlighting the role of these museums in the life of our campus community. Through close examination of objects separated from us by deep chronological and cultural divides\, imaginatively transformed within our campus context\, this project celebrates the power of architecture\, ornament\, and material objects to shape knowledge\, historical memory\, and cultural identity.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Gifts of Art presents Beauty Meets My Mess: Mixed Media Collage
DESCRIPTION:Re Kielar was born in Chicago’s little Italy neighborhood with her grandparents upstairs and aunt and uncle across the courtyard. Her world was very Italian\, and when she walked outside\, she felt like she was leaving one country and entering another. Ever since she was a child\, she has loved paint and texture and seen beauty in the most unlikely places. Her artwork expresses human emotion through drawing in ink with rough papers\, old book pages\, metal embellishments and natural objects. Each abstract collage is coupled with her poetry\, so each piece is a walk into her soul. She hopes that by sharing that which is broken\, we can find healing spaces that knit our hearts together.

The group of images on exhibit is from a project called On Blue: A Meditation. Blue is… tranquil pools of clear water\; languid clouds drifting in azure skies\; mood indigo\; cobalt glass\; cerulean blue eyes\; sapphire cornflowers\; poignant music\, emotion and sentiment. Blue is a rare color in nature\, yet found in the largest things such as sea\, lake and sky\, as well as some of the smallest: sapphires\, forget-me-nots and delicate tropical butterflies.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Gifts of Art presents Timeless Instants: Still Life Photographs
DESCRIPTION:Originally from Kansas City\, Tina West discovered photography while studying sculpture. She sees her photographs more as paintings\, and her still lifes have powerful cast shadows and frequent light play. Influenced by Gerhardt Richter and surrealism\, West’s images communicate a sense of being\, connecting not only the objects in the photographs\, but also the viewer and the photograph. She draws inspiration from the objects in her vast collection of unique treasures\, and she speaks to their unreserved timelessness with maturity and wonder. All of the images in this exhibit were created using instant film in a 4x5 view camera.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Mr. Vignaud's Maps: Unraveling a Cartographic Mystery from the Golden Age of Dutch Cartography
DESCRIPTION:In 1922 the University of Michigan acquired the library of Henry Vignaud\, an American diplomat living in Paris\, whose extensive personal library included thousands of books\, atlases\, maps\, and other publications. Many of Vignaud's maps were extracted from broken atlases\, originally published by the illustrious Hondius and Janssonius publishing houses. Staff in the Clark Library sought to organize these fascinating maps based on their physical characteristics and similarities\, with the ultimate goal of reassembling the original atlases.\n\nThis exhibit and the accompanying online exhibit (https://www.lib.umich.edu/online-exhibits/exhibits/show/rediscoveringvignaud) feature the results of their remarkable findings\, as well as a glimpse into the history of the Golden Age of mapmaking in 17th century Amsterdam.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Abstract Ancestry: Machine-Works on Paper
DESCRIPTION:Detroit-based artist Matthew Angelo Harrison takes a satirical look at historical narratives—exploring issues of race\, design\, mortality and industry—by making use of analog and digital technologies. For his solo show\, \"Abstract Ancestry\,\" at University of Michigan Institute for the Humanities\, Harrison will produce a suite of mechanical drawings with his homemade 3D printer. Using books and documents containing problematic historical portrayals as the substrate for his drawings\, Harrison is able to explore issues of representation. The exhibition also examines abstraction\, setting the printers to work at a low resolution ensures that imperfections and variability come through in these machine-produced drawings.\n\nOn April 5\, join us as we celebrate the opening of our final exhibition of the academic year with our 2018 Efroymson Emerging Artist in Residence Matthew Angelo Harrison. Harrison will be in conversation with curator Amanda Krugliak.\n\nThis project is funded by a grant from the Efroymson Family Fund.

DESCRIPTION:​Quaker Oats forged a new path in the entertainment industry by jointly marketing consumer packaged goods and a major motion picture in 1971\, Willy Wonka and the Chocolate Factory. Having never made a motion picture before\, their foray into the filmmaking industry was unexpected and unprecedented. The company saw this film as an opportunity to essentially make a feature-length commercial for their new line of Wonka candy products.\n\nStudents in Matthew Solomon's class\, SAC 355: Authorship and the Archive\, culled though hundreds of production documents related to the film to curate an exhibit that tells a little known behind-the-scenes story about one of the most beloved films.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Exercising the Eye: The Gertrude Kasle Collection
DESCRIPTION:Gallery hours are 11 a.m.–5 p.m. Tuesday–Saturday and 12–5 p.m. Sunday\; galleries are closed on Mondays.\n\nThis exhibition celebrates Gertrude Kasle (1917–2016)\, a key figure in the formation of Detroit’s contemporary art community in the 1960s and 70s. A pioneering female gallerist\, Kasle provided midwest audiences with a venue in which to experience avant-garde art from centers like New York City\, while also supporting and exhibiting regional artists. Featuring a collection of paintings\, works on paper\, and sculptures from the height of the Abstract Expressionist movement through the early twenty-first century\, 'Exercising the Eye' speaks to the relationships Kasle fostered with local\, national\, and international artists and her appreciation for artistic expression and experimentation. Critical voices from the last fifty years include Philip Guston\, Jane Hammond\, Grace Hartigan\, Jasper Johns\, Michele Oka Doner\, and Robert Rauschenberg. The exhibition offers visitors a unique opportunity to explore a dynamic moment in Detroit’s cultural history and insight into Kasle’s love of looking and learning.\n\nLead support for 'Exercising the Eye: The Gertrude Kasle Collection' is provided by the University of Michigan Office of the Provost\, Michigan Medicine\, and the University of Michigan CEW Frances and Sydney Lewis Visiting Leaders Fund.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:New at UMMA: Illuminated Manuscript
DESCRIPTION:Books of hours—custom-made for private devotion in the Christian faith—were a bestseller in medieval Europe. These manuscripts incorporated prayers\, hymns\, biblical stories\, and monthly calendars featuring religious feast days\, which were often supplemented by images painted in exquisite detail. Today\, books of hours are a testament to the visually rich material culture of the Middle Ages. UMMA was recently gifted a bejeweled double-sided calendar leaf for January. Executed on parchment\, the page highlights the material opulence and artistry involved in manuscript illumination. Accompanying the calendar are painted images or miniatures of the labor and characteristic activity of the month\, and Aquarius\, the zodiac sign for January\, embodied by a man collecting water from a stream. The folio’s luminous\, gilded surface\, accentuated by the use of bright colors\, was meant to transport the medieval viewer into a state of spiritual transcendence. \n\nThis work was recently gifted to UMMA by Mrs. Carrol Robertsen.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Tim Noble and Sue Webster: The Masterpiece
DESCRIPTION:Since the 1980s\, British artists Tim Noble and Sue Webster have been known for their shadow sculptures built from materials as diverse as scrap metal\, garbage\, taxidermy\, and sex toys. When light is directed at these assemblages\, they project shadows that are exceptionally accurate and intricate representations of other things entirely.\n\n\"The Masterpiece\" (2014) is a shadow self-portrait of the artists created from metal casts of dead vermin they collected and welded together into a ball. From afar the casts appear to be a stunning abstract silver sculpture\; on closer inspection the disturbing menagerie of creatures emerges\, only to change form again—as a shadow on the wall—into a precise and elegant image that is astonishingly different from the objects that create it.\n\nLead support for \"Tim Noble and Sue Webster: The Masterpiece\" is provided by the Herbert W. and Susan L. Johe Endowment\, the Susan and Richard Gutow Fund\, and the University of Michigan Institute for the Humanities. Additional generous support is provided by the Richard and Janet Miller Fund.

SUMMARY:Performance:Cactus Blossoms
DESCRIPTION:In the music of The Cactus Blossoms\, the country sibling harmonies of The Everly Brothers and The Louvin Brothers come alive for modern times. As we got to hear at the 2018 Ann Arbor Folk Festival\, brothers Page Burkum and Jack Torrey sing and play the guitar\, and their voices fit together as only brother duets can. The Cactus Blossoms were orn and raised in Minneapolis and grew up on rock and pop\, but they always had a fondness for old-time country and folk tunes. They began playing as a duo in 2010\, soon they added classic-style originals to their repertoire and landed a band-in-residence spot at St. Paul's Turf Club. The Cactus Blossoms began playing clubs beyond Minnesota as headliners\, toured with Kacey Musgraves)\, and caught the ear of former A Prairie Home Companion host Garrison Keillor\, who called them \"the brother duet that America is waiting for.\" They were signed to the Red House label\, released their debut album\, \"You're Dreaming\,\" and saw their song \"Mississippi\" featured on Twin Peaks.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:Teach Out Series: Privacy\, Reputation\, and Identity in a Digital Age
DESCRIPTION:Reputation has long been prized. In its traditional form\, people who know something about you use this knowledge to form opinions. Their collective sense of who you are—your reputation—affects how people treat you: it shapes all of your social interactions.\n\nIn today's world\, additional knowledge about you resides in \"big data\" collected by individuals\, organizations\, companies\, and governments. Increasingly\, data about you are being processed by algorithms to draw conclusions: to form something like opinions. \n\nThis combination of data and algorithms creates a new digital reputation which increasingly shapes your life\, from recommending purchases and suggesting friends to prompting actions based solely on your digital footprint.\n\nWho gathers\, owns\, and controls this data? Where do they get it\, and how? How do they use it? Is it shared with people\, processed by algorithms\, used to construct your choices? What should we think about all of this?\n\nIn this Teach-Out we will consider questions of privacy\, surveillance\, reputation\, and identity using a case study approach. Learners will hear from experts and engage in conversation using real-world scenarios across multiple topic areas.\n\nTeach-Out.org

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Window Installation | Cosmogonic Tattoos
DESCRIPTION:In celebration of the University’s Bicentennial in 2017\, artist and professor Jim Cogswell has been invited by the Kelsey Museum of Archaeology and the University of Michigan Museum of Art to create a set of public window installations in response to the objects in their collections. Titled \"Cosmogonic Tattoos\,\" his project uses adhesive vinyl images applied in saturated colors to windows in the two buildings\, highlighting the role of these museums in the life of our campus community. Through close examination of objects separated from us by deep chronological and cultural divides\, imaginatively transformed within our campus context\, this project celebrates the power of architecture\, ornament\, and material objects to shape knowledge\, historical memory\, and cultural identity.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Gifts of Art presents Beauty Meets My Mess: Mixed Media Collage
DESCRIPTION:Re Kielar was born in Chicago’s little Italy neighborhood with her grandparents upstairs and aunt and uncle across the courtyard. Her world was very Italian\, and when she walked outside\, she felt like she was leaving one country and entering another. Ever since she was a child\, she has loved paint and texture and seen beauty in the most unlikely places. Her artwork expresses human emotion through drawing in ink with rough papers\, old book pages\, metal embellishments and natural objects. Each abstract collage is coupled with her poetry\, so each piece is a walk into her soul. She hopes that by sharing that which is broken\, we can find healing spaces that knit our hearts together.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Gifts of Art presents Timeless Instants: Still Life Photographs
DESCRIPTION:Originally from Kansas City\, Tina West discovered photography while studying sculpture. She sees her photographs more as paintings\, and her still lifes have powerful cast shadows and frequent light play. Influenced by Gerhardt Richter and surrealism\, West’s images communicate a sense of being\, connecting not only the objects in the photographs\, but also the viewer and the photograph. She draws inspiration from the objects in her vast collection of unique treasures\, and she speaks to their unreserved timelessness with maturity and wonder. All of the images in this exhibit were created using instant film in a 4x5 view camera.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Mr. Vignaud's Maps: Unraveling a Cartographic Mystery from the Golden Age of Dutch Cartography
DESCRIPTION:In 1922 the University of Michigan acquired the library of Henry Vignaud\, an American diplomat living in Paris\, whose extensive personal library included thousands of books\, atlases\, maps\, and other publications. Many of Vignaud's maps were extracted from broken atlases\, originally published by the illustrious Hondius and Janssonius publishing houses. Staff in the Clark Library sought to organize these fascinating maps based on their physical characteristics and similarities\, with the ultimate goal of reassembling the original atlases.\n\nThis exhibit and the accompanying online exhibit (https://www.lib.umich.edu/online-exhibits/exhibits/show/rediscoveringvignaud) feature the results of their remarkable findings\, as well as a glimpse into the history of the Golden Age of mapmaking in 17th century Amsterdam.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Quaker Oats Makes a Movie: A Scrumdiddlyumptious Wonka Adventure
DESCRIPTION:​Quaker Oats forged a new path in the entertainment industry by jointly marketing consumer packaged goods and a major motion picture in 1971\, Willy Wonka and the Chocolate Factory. Having never made a motion picture before\, their foray into the filmmaking industry was unexpected and unprecedented. The company saw this film as an opportunity to essentially make a feature-length commercial for their new line of Wonka candy products.\n\nStudents in Matthew Solomon's class\, SAC 355: Authorship and the Archive\, culled though hundreds of production documents related to the film to curate an exhibit that tells a little known behind-the-scenes story about one of the most beloved films.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Exercising the Eye: The Gertrude Kasle Collection
DESCRIPTION:Gallery hours are 11 a.m.–5 p.m. Tuesday–Saturday and 12–5 p.m. Sunday\; galleries are closed on Mondays.\n\nThis exhibition celebrates Gertrude Kasle (1917–2016)\, a key figure in the formation of Detroit’s contemporary art community in the 1960s and 70s. A pioneering female gallerist\, Kasle provided midwest audiences with a venue in which to experience avant-garde art from centers like New York City\, while also supporting and exhibiting regional artists. Featuring a collection of paintings\, works on paper\, and sculptures from the height of the Abstract Expressionist movement through the early twenty-first century\, 'Exercising the Eye' speaks to the relationships Kasle fostered with local\, national\, and international artists and her appreciation for artistic expression and experimentation. Critical voices from the last fifty years include Philip Guston\, Jane Hammond\, Grace Hartigan\, Jasper Johns\, Michele Oka Doner\, and Robert Rauschenberg. The exhibition offers visitors a unique opportunity to explore a dynamic moment in Detroit’s cultural history and insight into Kasle’s love of looking and learning.\n\nLead support for 'Exercising the Eye: The Gertrude Kasle Collection' is provided by the University of Michigan Office of the Provost\, Michigan Medicine\, and the University of Michigan CEW Frances and Sydney Lewis Visiting Leaders Fund.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:New at UMMA: Illuminated Manuscript
DESCRIPTION:Books of hours—custom-made for private devotion in the Christian faith—were a bestseller in medieval Europe. These manuscripts incorporated prayers\, hymns\, biblical stories\, and monthly calendars featuring religious feast days\, which were often supplemented by images painted in exquisite detail. Today\, books of hours are a testament to the visually rich material culture of the Middle Ages. UMMA was recently gifted a bejeweled double-sided calendar leaf for January. Executed on parchment\, the page highlights the material opulence and artistry involved in manuscript illumination. Accompanying the calendar are painted images or miniatures of the labor and characteristic activity of the month\, and Aquarius\, the zodiac sign for January\, embodied by a man collecting water from a stream. The folio’s luminous\, gilded surface\, accentuated by the use of bright colors\, was meant to transport the medieval viewer into a state of spiritual transcendence. \n\nThis work was recently gifted to UMMA by Mrs. Carrol Robertsen.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Tim Noble and Sue Webster: The Masterpiece
DESCRIPTION:Since the 1980s\, British artists Tim Noble and Sue Webster have been known for their shadow sculptures built from materials as diverse as scrap metal\, garbage\, taxidermy\, and sex toys. When light is directed at these assemblages\, they project shadows that are exceptionally accurate and intricate representations of other things entirely.\n\n\"The Masterpiece\" (2014) is a shadow self-portrait of the artists created from metal casts of dead vermin they collected and welded together into a ball. From afar the casts appear to be a stunning abstract silver sculpture\; on closer inspection the disturbing menagerie of creatures emerges\, only to change form again—as a shadow on the wall—into a precise and elegant image that is astonishingly different from the objects that create it.\n\nLead support for \"Tim Noble and Sue Webster: The Masterpiece\" is provided by the Herbert W. and Susan L. Johe Endowment\, the Susan and Richard Gutow Fund\, and the University of Michigan Institute for the Humanities. Additional generous support is provided by the Richard and Janet Miller Fund.

SUMMARY:Ceremony / Service:2018 Stamps Commencement Ceremony
DESCRIPTION:The 2018 Stamps Commencement celebration will be held at 2:00 pm on Saturday\, April 28\, 2018 at the North Campus Research Complex\, Building 18.  The celebration includes short speeches by graduating undergraduate and graduate students and a commencement address by alumna\, arts advocate\, community leader\, and philanthropist Penny Stamps.  Penny Stamps will also be awarded an honorary Doctor of Arts degree at the University Commencement ceremony. The Stamps Commencement ceremony takes place after the 10 am Central Campus Spring Commencement at Michigan Stadium. \n\nAbout Penny Stamps\n\nUniversity of Michigan alumna\, arts advocate\, community leader\, and philanthropist Penny Stamps’ support for the arts is fueled by her belief in the critical role artists and designers play in solving complex problems\, and the importance of sharing their work and perspectives with the public. Ms. Stamps\, who grew up in Chicago\, Illinois\, and lives in Miami\, Florida\, earned a B.S. degree in design and a teaching certificate (1966) at U-M. She enjoyed a distinguished career at Herman Miller and Kaplan & Fox\, Inc. before heading her own residential design firm in the Boston area for 18 years. More than two decades ago\, she and her husband E. Roe Stamps created the Stamps Family Charitable Foundation. It has contributed significantly to the University over the years\, beginning in 1999 with funding for the popular Penny W. Stamps Distinguished Speaker Series. She also created the Roman J. Witt Visiting Professor Program in honor of her father\, the Stamps Gallery on Central Campus\, and Stamps Creative Work Scholarships. In 2006\, the Stamps Foundation launched their signature merit scholarship program. Today there are more than 880 current and 700 alumni Stamps Scholars representing 44 institutions throughout the United States. The University of Michigan is proud to have 60 current Stamps Scholars and 141 distinguished Stamps alumni. Her generosity has made possible the Stamps Auditorium on North Campus and the Stamps Student Commons at the Stephen M. Ross Academic Center. In 2012\, the Stamps Foundation granted the most generous philanthropic gift ever made to the School of Art & Design. The regents renamed the school the Penny W. Stamps School of Art & Design in recognition of her support for art and design education. An enthusiastic and loyal alumna\, Ms. Stamps co-chaired the Michigan Difference National Campaign Leadership Committee and is a deputy chair of the Victors for Michigan Campaign. She has served on the President’s Advisory Group and advisory councils to the deans of the Stamps School and the School of Education. Michigan recognized her in 2005 with the David B. Hermelin Award for Volunteer Leadership. She is invested in her community\, serves on numerous boards\, and provides pro-bono design services and philanthropic support for animal\, cultural\, environmental\, and health-related organizations. She helped build the Grayvik Animal Care Center at Ocean Reef and has served on the Humane Society of Greater Miami board since 2011. The greater Miami & The Keys Chapter of the American Red Cross recognized her with its Sara Hopkins Woodruff Spectrum Award for Women. She also received the 2013 National Philanthropy Lifetime Achievement Award. In 2015\, the Council for Advancement and Support of Education recognized the Stamps Foundation with its James L. Fisher Award for Distinguished Service to Education.\n\nThrough her contributions as a design professional\, community leader and volunteer\, and as a philanthropist\, Penny Stamps has championed the role of art and design in developing creative solutions and enriched the lives of Michigan students and faculty and thousands of others in Ann Arbor and nationally.\n\nStamps School of Art & Design Commencement\nSaturday\, April 28\, 2018 at 2 pm\nNorth Campus Research Complex (NCRC)\, 2800 Plymouth Road\, Building 18

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:Teach Out Series: Privacy\, Reputation\, and Identity in a Digital Age
DESCRIPTION:Reputation has long been prized. In its traditional form\, people who know something about you use this knowledge to form opinions. Their collective sense of who you are—your reputation—affects how people treat you: it shapes all of your social interactions.\n\nIn today's world\, additional knowledge about you resides in \"big data\" collected by individuals\, organizations\, companies\, and governments. Increasingly\, data about you are being processed by algorithms to draw conclusions: to form something like opinions. \n\nThis combination of data and algorithms creates a new digital reputation which increasingly shapes your life\, from recommending purchases and suggesting friends to prompting actions based solely on your digital footprint.\n\nWho gathers\, owns\, and controls this data? Where do they get it\, and how? How do they use it? Is it shared with people\, processed by algorithms\, used to construct your choices? What should we think about all of this?\n\nIn this Teach-Out we will consider questions of privacy\, surveillance\, reputation\, and identity using a case study approach. Learners will hear from experts and engage in conversation using real-world scenarios across multiple topic areas.\n\nTeach-Out.org

DESCRIPTION:In celebration of the University’s Bicentennial in 2017\, artist and professor Jim Cogswell has been invited by the Kelsey Museum of Archaeology and the University of Michigan Museum of Art to create a set of public window installations in response to the objects in their collections. Titled \"Cosmogonic Tattoos\,\" his project uses adhesive vinyl images applied in saturated colors to windows in the two buildings\, highlighting the role of these museums in the life of our campus community. Through close examination of objects separated from us by deep chronological and cultural divides\, imaginatively transformed within our campus context\, this project celebrates the power of architecture\, ornament\, and material objects to shape knowledge\, historical memory\, and cultural identity.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Gifts of Art presents Beauty Meets My Mess: Mixed Media Collage
DESCRIPTION:Re Kielar was born in Chicago’s little Italy neighborhood with her grandparents upstairs and aunt and uncle across the courtyard. Her world was very Italian\, and when she walked outside\, she felt like she was leaving one country and entering another. Ever since she was a child\, she has loved paint and texture and seen beauty in the most unlikely places. Her artwork expresses human emotion through drawing in ink with rough papers\, old book pages\, metal embellishments and natural objects. Each abstract collage is coupled with her poetry\, so each piece is a walk into her soul. She hopes that by sharing that which is broken\, we can find healing spaces that knit our hearts together.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Gifts of Art presents Ducks to Dresses: Paper Possibilities
DESCRIPTION:Originally from New York\, Aimee Lee works in Cleveland and is an artist\, papermaker\, Fulbright Scholar\, author and the leading hanji (Korean paper) researcher and practitioner in the US. Fusing contemporary fashion ideas with traditional clothing\, Lee connects past and present through everyday dress creations in paper.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Gifts of Art presents On Blue: Photographic Meditations
DESCRIPTION:Loosely based on the concept of the early 20th century group f64\, the f8collective is composed of female contemporary Chicago photographers who all happen to have strong family ties to Michigan. The group of images on exhibit is from a project called On Blue: A Meditation. Blue is… tranquil pools of clear water\; languid clouds drifting in azure skies\; mood indigo\; cobalt glass\; cerulean blue eyes\; sapphire cornflowers\; poignant music\, emotion and sentiment. Blue is a rare color in nature\, yet found in the largest things such as sea\, lake and sky\, as well as some of the smallest: sapphires\, forget-me-nots and delicate tropical butterflies.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Gifts of Art presents Timeless Instants: Still Life Photographs
DESCRIPTION:Originally from Kansas City\, Tina West discovered photography while studying sculpture. She sees her photographs more as paintings\, and her still lifes have powerful cast shadows and frequent light play. Influenced by Gerhardt Richter and surrealism\, West’s images communicate a sense of being\, connecting not only the objects in the photographs\, but also the viewer and the photograph. She draws inspiration from the objects in her vast collection of unique treasures\, and she speaks to their unreserved timelessness with maturity and wonder. All of the images in this exhibit were created using instant film in a 4x5 view camera.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Mr. Vignaud's Maps: Unraveling a Cartographic Mystery from the Golden Age of Dutch Cartography
DESCRIPTION:In 1922 the University of Michigan acquired the library of Henry Vignaud\, an American diplomat living in Paris\, whose extensive personal library included thousands of books\, atlases\, maps\, and other publications. Many of Vignaud's maps were extracted from broken atlases\, originally published by the illustrious Hondius and Janssonius publishing houses. Staff in the Clark Library sought to organize these fascinating maps based on their physical characteristics and similarities\, with the ultimate goal of reassembling the original atlases.\n\nThis exhibit and the accompanying online exhibit (https://www.lib.umich.edu/online-exhibits/exhibits/show/rediscoveringvignaud) feature the results of their remarkable findings\, as well as a glimpse into the history of the Golden Age of mapmaking in 17th century Amsterdam.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Quaker Oats Makes a Movie: A Scrumdiddlyumptious Wonka Adventure
DESCRIPTION:​Quaker Oats forged a new path in the entertainment industry by jointly marketing consumer packaged goods and a major motion picture in 1971\, Willy Wonka and the Chocolate Factory. Having never made a motion picture before\, their foray into the filmmaking industry was unexpected and unprecedented. The company saw this film as an opportunity to essentially make a feature-length commercial for their new line of Wonka candy products.\n\nStudents in Matthew Solomon's class\, SAC 355: Authorship and the Archive\, culled though hundreds of production documents related to the film to curate an exhibit that tells a little known behind-the-scenes story about one of the most beloved films.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Exercising the Eye: The Gertrude Kasle Collection
DESCRIPTION:Gallery hours are 11 a.m.–5 p.m. Tuesday–Saturday and 12–5 p.m. Sunday\; galleries are closed on Mondays.\n\nThis exhibition celebrates Gertrude Kasle (1917–2016)\, a key figure in the formation of Detroit’s contemporary art community in the 1960s and 70s. A pioneering female gallerist\, Kasle provided midwest audiences with a venue in which to experience avant-garde art from centers like New York City\, while also supporting and exhibiting regional artists. Featuring a collection of paintings\, works on paper\, and sculptures from the height of the Abstract Expressionist movement through the early twenty-first century\, 'Exercising the Eye' speaks to the relationships Kasle fostered with local\, national\, and international artists and her appreciation for artistic expression and experimentation. Critical voices from the last fifty years include Philip Guston\, Jane Hammond\, Grace Hartigan\, Jasper Johns\, Michele Oka Doner\, and Robert Rauschenberg. The exhibition offers visitors a unique opportunity to explore a dynamic moment in Detroit’s cultural history and insight into Kasle’s love of looking and learning.\n\nLead support for 'Exercising the Eye: The Gertrude Kasle Collection' is provided by the University of Michigan Office of the Provost\, Michigan Medicine\, and the University of Michigan CEW Frances and Sydney Lewis Visiting Leaders Fund.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Tim Noble and Sue Webster: The Masterpiece
DESCRIPTION:Since the 1980s\, British artists Tim Noble and Sue Webster have been known for their shadow sculptures built from materials as diverse as scrap metal\, garbage\, taxidermy\, and sex toys. When light is directed at these assemblages\, they project shadows that are exceptionally accurate and intricate representations of other things entirely.\n\n\"The Masterpiece\" (2014) is a shadow self-portrait of the artists created from metal casts of dead vermin they collected and welded together into a ball. From afar the casts appear to be a stunning abstract silver sculpture\; on closer inspection the disturbing menagerie of creatures emerges\, only to change form again—as a shadow on the wall—into a precise and elegant image that is astonishingly different from the objects that create it.\n\nLead support for \"Tim Noble and Sue Webster: The Masterpiece\" is provided by the Herbert W. and Susan L. Johe Endowment\, the Susan and Richard Gutow Fund\, and the University of Michigan Institute for the Humanities. Additional generous support is provided by the Richard and Janet Miller Fund.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:New at UMMA: Illuminated Manuscript
DESCRIPTION:Books of hours—custom-made for private devotion in the Christian faith—were a bestseller in medieval Europe. These manuscripts incorporated prayers\, hymns\, biblical stories\, and monthly calendars featuring religious feast days\, which were often supplemented by images painted in exquisite detail. Today\, books of hours are a testament to the visually rich material culture of the Middle Ages. UMMA was recently gifted a bejeweled double-sided calendar leaf for January. Executed on parchment\, the page highlights the material opulence and artistry involved in manuscript illumination. Accompanying the calendar are painted images or miniatures of the labor and characteristic activity of the month\, and Aquarius\, the zodiac sign for January\, embodied by a man collecting water from a stream. The folio’s luminous\, gilded surface\, accentuated by the use of bright colors\, was meant to transport the medieval viewer into a state of spiritual transcendence. \n\nThis work was recently gifted to UMMA by Mrs. Carrol Robertsen.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:Teach Out Series: Privacy\, Reputation\, and Identity in a Digital Age
DESCRIPTION:Reputation has long been prized. In its traditional form\, people who know something about you use this knowledge to form opinions. Their collective sense of who you are—your reputation—affects how people treat you: it shapes all of your social interactions.\n\nIn today's world\, additional knowledge about you resides in \"big data\" collected by individuals\, organizations\, companies\, and governments. Increasingly\, data about you are being processed by algorithms to draw conclusions: to form something like opinions. \n\nThis combination of data and algorithms creates a new digital reputation which increasingly shapes your life\, from recommending purchases and suggesting friends to prompting actions based solely on your digital footprint.\n\nWho gathers\, owns\, and controls this data? Where do they get it\, and how? How do they use it? Is it shared with people\, processed by algorithms\, used to construct your choices? What should we think about all of this?\n\nIn this Teach-Out we will consider questions of privacy\, surveillance\, reputation\, and identity using a case study approach. Learners will hear from experts and engage in conversation using real-world scenarios across multiple topic areas.\n\nTeach-Out.org

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Gifts of Art presents Beauty Meets My Mess: Mixed Media Collage
DESCRIPTION:Re Kielar was born in Chicago’s little Italy neighborhood with her grandparents upstairs and aunt and uncle across the courtyard. Her world was very Italian\, and when she walked outside\, she felt like she was leaving one country and entering another. Ever since she was a child\, she has loved paint and texture and seen beauty in the most unlikely places. Her artwork expresses human emotion through drawing in ink with rough papers\, old book pages\, metal embellishments and natural objects. Each abstract collage is coupled with her poetry\, so each piece is a walk into her soul. She hopes that by sharing that which is broken\, we can find healing spaces that knit our hearts together.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Abstract Ancestry: Machine-Works on Paper
DESCRIPTION:Detroit-based artist Matthew Angelo Harrison takes a satirical look at historical narratives—exploring issues of race\, design\, mortality and industry—by making use of analog and digital technologies. For his solo show\, \"Abstract Ancestry\,\" at University of Michigan Institute for the Humanities\, Harrison will produce a suite of mechanical drawings with his homemade 3D printer. Using books and documents containing problematic historical portrayals as the substrate for his drawings\, Harrison is able to explore issues of representation. The exhibition also examines abstraction\, setting the printers to work at a low resolution ensures that imperfections and variability come through in these machine-produced drawings.\n\nOn April 5\, join us as we celebrate the opening of our final exhibition of the academic year with our 2018 Efroymson Emerging Artist in Residence Matthew Angelo Harrison. Harrison will be in conversation with curator Amanda Krugliak.\n\nThis project is funded by a grant from the Efroymson Family Fund.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Tim Noble and Sue Webster: The Masterpiece
DESCRIPTION:Since the 1980s\, British artists Tim Noble and Sue Webster have been known for their shadow sculptures built from materials as diverse as scrap metal\, garbage\, taxidermy\, and sex toys. When light is directed at these assemblages\, they project shadows that are exceptionally accurate and intricate representations of other things entirely.\n\n\"The Masterpiece\" (2014) is a shadow self-portrait of the artists created from metal casts of dead vermin they collected and welded together into a ball. From afar the casts appear to be a stunning abstract silver sculpture\; on closer inspection the disturbing menagerie of creatures emerges\, only to change form again—as a shadow on the wall—into a precise and elegant image that is astonishingly different from the objects that create it.\n\nLead support for \"Tim Noble and Sue Webster: The Masterpiece\" is provided by the Herbert W. and Susan L. Johe Endowment\, the Susan and Richard Gutow Fund\, and the University of Michigan Institute for the Humanities. Additional generous support is provided by the Richard and Janet Miller Fund.

SUMMARY:Other:Dissertation Defense: Statistical Tools for Network Data: Prediction and Resampling
DESCRIPTION:Advances in data collection and social media have led to more and more network data appearing in diverse  areas\, such as social sciences\, internet\, transportation and biology. This thesis develops new principled statistical tools for network analysis\, with emphasis on both appealing statistical properties and computational efficiency.\n\nOur first project focuses on building prediction models for network-linked data. Prediction algorithms typically assume the training data are independent samples\, but in many modern applications samples come from individuals connected by a network.  For example\, in adolescent health studies of risk-taking behaviors\, information on the subjects' social network is often available and plays an important role through network cohesion\, the empirically observed phenomenon of friends behaving similarly.  Taking cohesion into account in prediction models should allow us to improve their performance.  We propose a network-based penalty on individual node effects to encourage similarity between predictions for linked nodes\, and show that incorporating it into prediction leads to improvement over traditional models both theoretically and empirically when network cohesion is present.  The penalty can be used with many loss-based prediction methods\, such as regression\, generalized linear models\, and Cox's proportional hazard model. Applications to predicting levels of recreational activity and marijuana usage among teenagers from the AddHealth study based on both demographic covariates and friendship networks are discussed in detail.  We show that our approach to taking friendships into account can significantly improve predictions of behavior while providing interpretable estimates of covariate effects.\n\nResampling\, data splitting\, and cross-validation are powerful general strategies in statistical inference\, but resampling from a network remains a challenging problem. Many statistical models and methods for networks need model selection and tuning parameters\, which could be done by cross-validation if we had a good method for splitting network data\;  however\,  splitting network nodes into groups requires deleting edges and destroys some of the structure.  Here we propose a new network cross-validation strategy based on splitting edges rather than nodes\, which avoids losing information and is applicable to a wide range of network models.  We provide a theoretical justification for our method in a general setting and  demonstrate how our method can be used in a number of specific model election and parameter tuning tasks\, with  extensive numerical results on simulated networks demonstrating its competitiveness with task-specific methods.   We also apply the method to analysis of a citation network of statisticians and obtain meaningful research communities.\n\nFinally\, we consider the problem of community detection on partially observed networks.  Communities are one important type of structure in networks and they have been widely studied.  However\, in practice\, network data are often collected through sampling   mechanisms\, such as survey questionnaires\, instead of direct observation.  The noise and bias introduced by such sampling mechanisms can obscure the community structure and invalidate the assumptions of standard community detection methods.   We propose a model to incorporate neighborhood sampling\, through a model reflective of survey designs\,  into community detection for directed networks\, since friendship networks obtained from surveys are naturally directed.. We model the edge sampling probabilities as a function of both individual preferences and community parameters\, and fit the model by a combination of spectral clustering and the method of moments.  The algorithm is computationally efficient and comes with a theoretical guarantee of consistency.. We evaluate the proposed model in extensive simulation studies and applied it to a  faculty hiring dataset\, discovering a meaningful hierarchy of communities among US business schools.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:PhD Defense: Ben Yee
DESCRIPTION:Title: A Multilevel in Space and Energy Solver for Multigroup Diffusion and Coarse Mesh Finite Difference Eigenvalue Problems\n\nCo-Chair: Prof. Edward Larsen\nCo-Chair: Dr. Brendan Kochunas\n\nAbstract: In reactor physics\, the efficient solution of the multigroup neutron diffusion eigenvalue problem is desired for various applications. The diffusion problem is a lower-order but reasonably accurate approximation to the higher- fidelity multigroup neutron transport eigenvalue problem\, and\, in cases where the full-fidelity of the transport solution is needed\, its solution can be used to accelerate the convergence of transport solvers via methods such as Coarse Mesh Finite Difference (CMFD). Although the multigroup CMFD eigenvalue problem is orders of magnitude smaller than a typical transport problem\, it can still have hundreds of millions of unknowns\, and obtaining its solution is not a trivial task. In the Michigan Parallel Characteristics Transport (MPACT) code\, the lack of an efficient CMFD solver has resulted in a computational bottleneck at the CMFD step. Despite being a low-order accelerator\, the CMFD component of MPACT can comprise 50% or more of the overall runtime when the de facto default CMFD solver in MPACT is used. Addressing this bottleneck is the motivation for our work.\nThe primary focus of this thesis is the theory\, development\, implementation\, and testing of a new Multilevel-in-Space-and-Energy Diffusion (MSED) method for efficiently solving multigroup diffusion and CMFD eigenvalue problems. As its name suggests\, MSED efficiently converges multigroup diffusion and CMFD problems by leveraging lower-order systems with coarsened energy and/or spatial grids. Compared to the de facto default CMFD solver\, results from our implementation of MSED in MPACT show a ~8- 12x reduction in the CMFD runtime required by MPACT for single statepoint calculations on 3-D\, full-core\, 51-group reactor models. The number of transport sweeps is also typically reduced by the use of MSED\, which is able to better converge the CMFD system than the default CMFD solver. This leads to further savings in overall runtime that is not captured by the difference in CMFD runtime.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:Teach Out Series: Privacy\, Reputation\, and Identity in a Digital Age
DESCRIPTION:Reputation has long been prized. In its traditional form\, people who know something about you use this knowledge to form opinions. Their collective sense of who you are—your reputation—affects how people treat you: it shapes all of your social interactions.\n\nIn today's world\, additional knowledge about you resides in \"big data\" collected by individuals\, organizations\, companies\, and governments. Increasingly\, data about you are being processed by algorithms to draw conclusions: to form something like opinions. \n\nThis combination of data and algorithms creates a new digital reputation which increasingly shapes your life\, from recommending purchases and suggesting friends to prompting actions based solely on your digital footprint.\n\nWho gathers\, owns\, and controls this data? Where do they get it\, and how? How do they use it? Is it shared with people\, processed by algorithms\, used to construct your choices? What should we think about all of this?\n\nIn this Teach-Out we will consider questions of privacy\, surveillance\, reputation\, and identity using a case study approach. Learners will hear from experts and engage in conversation using real-world scenarios across multiple topic areas.\n\nTeach-Out.org

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Gifts of Art presents Beauty Meets My Mess: Mixed Media Collage
DESCRIPTION:Re Kielar was born in Chicago’s little Italy neighborhood with her grandparents upstairs and aunt and uncle across the courtyard. Her world was very Italian\, and when she walked outside\, she felt like she was leaving one country and entering another. Ever since she was a child\, she has loved paint and texture and seen beauty in the most unlikely places. Her artwork expresses human emotion through drawing in ink with rough papers\, old book pages\, metal embellishments and natural objects. Each abstract collage is coupled with her poetry\, so each piece is a walk into her soul. She hopes that by sharing that which is broken\, we can find healing spaces that knit our hearts together.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Gifts of Art presents Timeless Instants: Still Life Photographs
DESCRIPTION:Originally from Kansas City\, Tina West discovered photography while studying sculpture. She sees her photographs more as paintings\, and her still lifes have powerful cast shadows and frequent light play. Influenced by Gerhardt Richter and surrealism\, West’s images communicate a sense of being\, connecting not only the objects in the photographs\, but also the viewer and the photograph. She draws inspiration from the objects in her vast collection of unique treasures\, and she speaks to their unreserved timelessness with maturity and wonder. All of the images in this exhibit were created using instant film in a 4x5 view camera.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Mr. Vignaud's Maps: Unraveling a Cartographic Mystery from the Golden Age of Dutch Cartography
DESCRIPTION:In 1922 the University of Michigan acquired the library of Henry Vignaud\, an American diplomat living in Paris\, whose extensive personal library included thousands of books\, atlases\, maps\, and other publications. Many of Vignaud's maps were extracted from broken atlases\, originally published by the illustrious Hondius and Janssonius publishing houses. Staff in the Clark Library sought to organize these fascinating maps based on their physical characteristics and similarities\, with the ultimate goal of reassembling the original atlases.\n\nThis exhibit and the accompanying online exhibit (https://www.lib.umich.edu/online-exhibits/exhibits/show/rediscoveringvignaud) feature the results of their remarkable findings\, as well as a glimpse into the history of the Golden Age of mapmaking in 17th century Amsterdam.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Abstract Ancestry: Machine-Works on Paper
DESCRIPTION:Detroit-based artist Matthew Angelo Harrison takes a satirical look at historical narratives—exploring issues of race\, design\, mortality and industry—by making use of analog and digital technologies. For his solo show\, \"Abstract Ancestry\,\" at University of Michigan Institute for the Humanities\, Harrison will produce a suite of mechanical drawings with his homemade 3D printer. Using books and documents containing problematic historical portrayals as the substrate for his drawings\, Harrison is able to explore issues of representation. The exhibition also examines abstraction\, setting the printers to work at a low resolution ensures that imperfections and variability come through in these machine-produced drawings.\n\nOn April 5\, join us as we celebrate the opening of our final exhibition of the academic year with our 2018 Efroymson Emerging Artist in Residence Matthew Angelo Harrison. Harrison will be in conversation with curator Amanda Krugliak.\n\nThis project is funded by a grant from the Efroymson Family Fund.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Quaker Oats Makes a Movie: A Scrumdiddlyumptious Wonka Adventure
DESCRIPTION:​Quaker Oats forged a new path in the entertainment industry by jointly marketing consumer packaged goods and a major motion picture in 1971\, Willy Wonka and the Chocolate Factory. Having never made a motion picture before\, their foray into the filmmaking industry was unexpected and unprecedented. The company saw this film as an opportunity to essentially make a feature-length commercial for their new line of Wonka candy products.\n\nStudents in Matthew Solomon's class\, SAC 355: Authorship and the Archive\, culled though hundreds of production documents related to the film to curate an exhibit that tells a little known behind-the-scenes story about one of the most beloved films.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Exercising the Eye: The Gertrude Kasle Collection
DESCRIPTION:Gallery hours are 11 a.m.–5 p.m. Tuesday–Saturday and 12–5 p.m. Sunday\; galleries are closed on Mondays.\n\nThis exhibition celebrates Gertrude Kasle (1917–2016)\, a key figure in the formation of Detroit’s contemporary art community in the 1960s and 70s. A pioneering female gallerist\, Kasle provided midwest audiences with a venue in which to experience avant-garde art from centers like New York City\, while also supporting and exhibiting regional artists. Featuring a collection of paintings\, works on paper\, and sculptures from the height of the Abstract Expressionist movement through the early twenty-first century\, 'Exercising the Eye' speaks to the relationships Kasle fostered with local\, national\, and international artists and her appreciation for artistic expression and experimentation. Critical voices from the last fifty years include Philip Guston\, Jane Hammond\, Grace Hartigan\, Jasper Johns\, Michele Oka Doner\, and Robert Rauschenberg. The exhibition offers visitors a unique opportunity to explore a dynamic moment in Detroit’s cultural history and insight into Kasle’s love of looking and learning.\n\nLead support for 'Exercising the Eye: The Gertrude Kasle Collection' is provided by the University of Michigan Office of the Provost\, Michigan Medicine\, and the University of Michigan CEW Frances and Sydney Lewis Visiting Leaders Fund.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:New at UMMA: Illuminated Manuscript
DESCRIPTION:Books of hours—custom-made for private devotion in the Christian faith—were a bestseller in medieval Europe. These manuscripts incorporated prayers\, hymns\, biblical stories\, and monthly calendars featuring religious feast days\, which were often supplemented by images painted in exquisite detail. Today\, books of hours are a testament to the visually rich material culture of the Middle Ages. UMMA was recently gifted a bejeweled double-sided calendar leaf for January. Executed on parchment\, the page highlights the material opulence and artistry involved in manuscript illumination. Accompanying the calendar are painted images or miniatures of the labor and characteristic activity of the month\, and Aquarius\, the zodiac sign for January\, embodied by a man collecting water from a stream. The folio’s luminous\, gilded surface\, accentuated by the use of bright colors\, was meant to transport the medieval viewer into a state of spiritual transcendence. \n\nThis work was recently gifted to UMMA by Mrs. Carrol Robertsen.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Tim Noble and Sue Webster: The Masterpiece
DESCRIPTION:Since the 1980s\, British artists Tim Noble and Sue Webster have been known for their shadow sculptures built from materials as diverse as scrap metal\, garbage\, taxidermy\, and sex toys. When light is directed at these assemblages\, they project shadows that are exceptionally accurate and intricate representations of other things entirely.\n\n\"The Masterpiece\" (2014) is a shadow self-portrait of the artists created from metal casts of dead vermin they collected and welded together into a ball. From afar the casts appear to be a stunning abstract silver sculpture\; on closer inspection the disturbing menagerie of creatures emerges\, only to change form again—as a shadow on the wall—into a precise and elegant image that is astonishingly different from the objects that create it.\n\nLead support for \"Tim Noble and Sue Webster: The Masterpiece\" is provided by the Herbert W. and Susan L. Johe Endowment\, the Susan and Richard Gutow Fund\, and the University of Michigan Institute for the Humanities. Additional generous support is provided by the Richard and Janet Miller Fund.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:Teach Out Series: Privacy\, Reputation\, and Identity in a Digital Age
DESCRIPTION:Reputation has long been prized. In its traditional form\, people who know something about you use this knowledge to form opinions. Their collective sense of who you are—your reputation—affects how people treat you: it shapes all of your social interactions.\n\nIn today's world\, additional knowledge about you resides in \"big data\" collected by individuals\, organizations\, companies\, and governments. Increasingly\, data about you are being processed by algorithms to draw conclusions: to form something like opinions. \n\nThis combination of data and algorithms creates a new digital reputation which increasingly shapes your life\, from recommending purchases and suggesting friends to prompting actions based solely on your digital footprint.\n\nWho gathers\, owns\, and controls this data? Where do they get it\, and how? How do they use it? Is it shared with people\, processed by algorithms\, used to construct your choices? What should we think about all of this?\n\nIn this Teach-Out we will consider questions of privacy\, surveillance\, reputation\, and identity using a case study approach. Learners will hear from experts and engage in conversation using real-world scenarios across multiple topic areas.\n\nTeach-Out.org

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Window Installation | Cosmogonic Tattoos
DESCRIPTION:In celebration of the University’s Bicentennial in 2017\, artist and professor Jim Cogswell has been invited by the Kelsey Museum of Archaeology and the University of Michigan Museum of Art to create a set of public window installations in response to the objects in their collections. Titled \"Cosmogonic Tattoos\,\" his project uses adhesive vinyl images applied in saturated colors to windows in the two buildings\, highlighting the role of these museums in the life of our campus community. Through close examination of objects separated from us by deep chronological and cultural divides\, imaginatively transformed within our campus context\, this project celebrates the power of architecture\, ornament\, and material objects to shape knowledge\, historical memory\, and cultural identity.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Gifts of Art presents Beauty Meets My Mess: Mixed Media Collage
DESCRIPTION:Re Kielar was born in Chicago’s little Italy neighborhood with her grandparents upstairs and aunt and uncle across the courtyard. Her world was very Italian\, and when she walked outside\, she felt like she was leaving one country and entering another. Ever since she was a child\, she has loved paint and texture and seen beauty in the most unlikely places. Her artwork expresses human emotion through drawing in ink with rough papers\, old book pages\, metal embellishments and natural objects. Each abstract collage is coupled with her poetry\, so each piece is a walk into her soul. She hopes that by sharing that which is broken\, we can find healing spaces that knit our hearts together.

DESCRIPTION:Loosely based on the concept of the early 20th century group f64\, the f8collective is composed of female contemporary Chicago photographers who all happen to have strong family ties to Michigan. The group of images on exhibit is from a project called On Blue: A Meditation. Blue is… tranquil pools of clear water\; languid clouds drifting in azure skies\; mood indigo\; cobalt glass\; cerulean blue eyes\; sapphire cornflowers\; poignant music\, emotion and sentiment. Blue is a rare color in nature\, yet found in the largest things such as sea\, lake and sky\, as well as some of the smallest: sapphires\, forget-me-nots and delicate tropical butterflies.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Gifts of Art presents Timeless Instants: Still Life Photographs
DESCRIPTION:Originally from Kansas City\, Tina West discovered photography while studying sculpture. She sees her photographs more as paintings\, and her still lifes have powerful cast shadows and frequent light play. Influenced by Gerhardt Richter and surrealism\, West’s images communicate a sense of being\, connecting not only the objects in the photographs\, but also the viewer and the photograph. She draws inspiration from the objects in her vast collection of unique treasures\, and she speaks to their unreserved timelessness with maturity and wonder. All of the images in this exhibit were created using instant film in a 4x5 view camera.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Mr. Vignaud's Maps: Unraveling a Cartographic Mystery from the Golden Age of Dutch Cartography
DESCRIPTION:In 1922 the University of Michigan acquired the library of Henry Vignaud\, an American diplomat living in Paris\, whose extensive personal library included thousands of books\, atlases\, maps\, and other publications. Many of Vignaud's maps were extracted from broken atlases\, originally published by the illustrious Hondius and Janssonius publishing houses. Staff in the Clark Library sought to organize these fascinating maps based on their physical characteristics and similarities\, with the ultimate goal of reassembling the original atlases.\n\nThis exhibit and the accompanying online exhibit (https://www.lib.umich.edu/online-exhibits/exhibits/show/rediscoveringvignaud) feature the results of their remarkable findings\, as well as a glimpse into the history of the Golden Age of mapmaking in 17th century Amsterdam.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Abstract Ancestry: Machine-Works on Paper
DESCRIPTION:Detroit-based artist Matthew Angelo Harrison takes a satirical look at historical narratives—exploring issues of race\, design\, mortality and industry—by making use of analog and digital technologies. For his solo show\, \"Abstract Ancestry\,\" at University of Michigan Institute for the Humanities\, Harrison will produce a suite of mechanical drawings with his homemade 3D printer. Using books and documents containing problematic historical portrayals as the substrate for his drawings\, Harrison is able to explore issues of representation. The exhibition also examines abstraction\, setting the printers to work at a low resolution ensures that imperfections and variability come through in these machine-produced drawings.\n\nOn April 5\, join us as we celebrate the opening of our final exhibition of the academic year with our 2018 Efroymson Emerging Artist in Residence Matthew Angelo Harrison. Harrison will be in conversation with curator Amanda Krugliak.\n\nThis project is funded by a grant from the Efroymson Family Fund.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Quaker Oats Makes a Movie: A Scrumdiddlyumptious Wonka Adventure
DESCRIPTION:​Quaker Oats forged a new path in the entertainment industry by jointly marketing consumer packaged goods and a major motion picture in 1971\, Willy Wonka and the Chocolate Factory. Having never made a motion picture before\, their foray into the filmmaking industry was unexpected and unprecedented. The company saw this film as an opportunity to essentially make a feature-length commercial for their new line of Wonka candy products.\n\nStudents in Matthew Solomon's class\, SAC 355: Authorship and the Archive\, culled though hundreds of production documents related to the film to curate an exhibit that tells a little known behind-the-scenes story about one of the most beloved films.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Exercising the Eye: The Gertrude Kasle Collection
DESCRIPTION:Gallery hours are 11 a.m.–5 p.m. Tuesday–Saturday and 12–5 p.m. Sunday\; galleries are closed on Mondays.\n\nThis exhibition celebrates Gertrude Kasle (1917–2016)\, a key figure in the formation of Detroit’s contemporary art community in the 1960s and 70s. A pioneering female gallerist\, Kasle provided midwest audiences with a venue in which to experience avant-garde art from centers like New York City\, while also supporting and exhibiting regional artists. Featuring a collection of paintings\, works on paper\, and sculptures from the height of the Abstract Expressionist movement through the early twenty-first century\, 'Exercising the Eye' speaks to the relationships Kasle fostered with local\, national\, and international artists and her appreciation for artistic expression and experimentation. Critical voices from the last fifty years include Philip Guston\, Jane Hammond\, Grace Hartigan\, Jasper Johns\, Michele Oka Doner\, and Robert Rauschenberg. The exhibition offers visitors a unique opportunity to explore a dynamic moment in Detroit’s cultural history and insight into Kasle’s love of looking and learning.\n\nLead support for 'Exercising the Eye: The Gertrude Kasle Collection' is provided by the University of Michigan Office of the Provost\, Michigan Medicine\, and the University of Michigan CEW Frances and Sydney Lewis Visiting Leaders Fund.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:New at UMMA: Illuminated Manuscript
DESCRIPTION:Books of hours—custom-made for private devotion in the Christian faith—were a bestseller in medieval Europe. These manuscripts incorporated prayers\, hymns\, biblical stories\, and monthly calendars featuring religious feast days\, which were often supplemented by images painted in exquisite detail. Today\, books of hours are a testament to the visually rich material culture of the Middle Ages. UMMA was recently gifted a bejeweled double-sided calendar leaf for January. Executed on parchment\, the page highlights the material opulence and artistry involved in manuscript illumination. Accompanying the calendar are painted images or miniatures of the labor and characteristic activity of the month\, and Aquarius\, the zodiac sign for January\, embodied by a man collecting water from a stream. The folio’s luminous\, gilded surface\, accentuated by the use of bright colors\, was meant to transport the medieval viewer into a state of spiritual transcendence. \n\nThis work was recently gifted to UMMA by Mrs. Carrol Robertsen.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Tim Noble and Sue Webster: The Masterpiece
DESCRIPTION:Since the 1980s\, British artists Tim Noble and Sue Webster have been known for their shadow sculptures built from materials as diverse as scrap metal\, garbage\, taxidermy\, and sex toys. When light is directed at these assemblages\, they project shadows that are exceptionally accurate and intricate representations of other things entirely.\n\n\"The Masterpiece\" (2014) is a shadow self-portrait of the artists created from metal casts of dead vermin they collected and welded together into a ball. From afar the casts appear to be a stunning abstract silver sculpture\; on closer inspection the disturbing menagerie of creatures emerges\, only to change form again—as a shadow on the wall—into a precise and elegant image that is astonishingly different from the objects that create it.\n\nLead support for \"Tim Noble and Sue Webster: The Masterpiece\" is provided by the Herbert W. and Susan L. Johe Endowment\, the Susan and Richard Gutow Fund\, and the University of Michigan Institute for the Humanities. Additional generous support is provided by the Richard and Janet Miller Fund.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:2018 Donald L. Katz Lectureship in Chemical Engineering
DESCRIPTION:Presented by Emily A. Carter\, Princeton University\nLecture Title: \"Mechanisms for Sustainable Fuel and Chemical Production from First Principles\"\n\nAbstract\n\nSomeday the world’s liquid fuels needed for ships and airplanes will come from sustainable sources and low-energy processing. We are far from that day. While that fact is unfortunate\, it opens up exciting opportunities for researchers from many different fields to work together to realize that vision. I will report on some of my research group’s contributions toward this goal\, as we develop and apply quantum mechanics-based simulation methods to unravel mechanisms associated with (photo) electrochemical water oxidation and carbon dioxide reduction at semiconductor electrodes and plasmon-catalyzed bond breaking over metal nanoparticles. The talk will focus primarily on CO2 photoelectroreduction to fuel precursors but will also outline the potential for plasmonic catalysis to replace\, e.g.\, the energy-intensive Haber-Bosch process. This latter work illustrates the potential to develop a non-thermal\, low-pressure\, visible-light-based approach to ammonia synthesis and hence to sustainable fertilizer production.\n\nShort Biography\n\nEmily A. Carter is the Dean of the School of Engineering and Applied Science and the Gerhard R. Andlinger Professor in Energy and the Environment\, as well as Professor of Mechanical and Aerospace Engineering and Applied and Computational Mathematics at Princeton University. Her research focuses on developing and applying accurate\, efficient quantum mechanics methods that enable discovery and design of materials for sustainable energy. She received her B.S. in Chemistry from UC Berkeley in 1982 (Phi Beta Kappa) and her Ph.D. in Chemistry from Caltech in 1987. After a year as a postdoctoral researcher at the University of Colorado\, Boulder\, she spent 16 years at UCLA as a Professor of Chemistry and later also of Materials Science and Engineering. She moved to Princeton University in 2004\, where she was the Founding Director of the Andlinger Center for Energy and the Environment from 2010-2016. The author of over 360 publications\, she has delivered over 500 invited and plenary lectures all over the world and serves on advisory boards spanning a wide range of disciplines. Her scholarly work has been recognized by awards from a variety of entities\, including the American Chemical Society\, the American Physical Society\, the Institute of Physics\, the American Association for the Advancement of Science\, the Italian Chemical Society\, the German Chemical Society\, and the International Academy of Quantum Molecular Science. Professor Carter was elected in 2008 to both the American Academy of Arts and Sciences and the National Academy of Sciences\, and in 2016 to the National Academy of Engineering. You can learn more about her at http:///carter.princeton.edu.

SUMMARY:Performance:Hot Club of Cowtown
DESCRIPTION:The Austin-based Hot Club of Cowtown explores the space where early jazz met Texas swing\, where Joe Venuti and Eddie Lang met Bob Wills and His Texas Playboys. Guitarist Whit Smith and fiddler Elana James have become a world-class country-jazz duo\, challenging each other and reading each other's minds at every turn. Add in the insouciant lyrics of the era and the vigorous slap-bass rhythms of Jake Erwin\, and you've got virtuoso small-group western swing that's beyond infectious. If you've seen the Hot Club before\, be advised that they're only getting better—they went on hiatus\, got back together\, and came out of it stronger. By now they're one of the great improvising bands in any genre. They don't always make it up here to Michigan\, but Elana has relatives in the area and brings her A game. Don't miss this!

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:Teach Out Series: Privacy\, Reputation\, and Identity in a Digital Age
DESCRIPTION:Reputation has long been prized. In its traditional form\, people who know something about you use this knowledge to form opinions. Their collective sense of who you are—your reputation—affects how people treat you: it shapes all of your social interactions.\n\nIn today's world\, additional knowledge about you resides in \"big data\" collected by individuals\, organizations\, companies\, and governments. Increasingly\, data about you are being processed by algorithms to draw conclusions: to form something like opinions. \n\nThis combination of data and algorithms creates a new digital reputation which increasingly shapes your life\, from recommending purchases and suggesting friends to prompting actions based solely on your digital footprint.\n\nWho gathers\, owns\, and controls this data? Where do they get it\, and how? How do they use it? Is it shared with people\, processed by algorithms\, used to construct your choices? What should we think about all of this?\n\nIn this Teach-Out we will consider questions of privacy\, surveillance\, reputation\, and identity using a case study approach. Learners will hear from experts and engage in conversation using real-world scenarios across multiple topic areas.\n\nTeach-Out.org

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:Teach-Out Series: Extreme Weather: Tornado Season
DESCRIPTION:Approximately 1\,200 tornadoes hit the United States per year and because of their unpredictable and violent nature\, tornadoes remain a focal point in extreme weather conversations. In this Teach-Out\, you will learn about the frequency of tornadic events both in the United States and globally\, the methods used to assess the strength of tornadoes\, what research tells us about their origins and structure\, and tornado preparedness and response strategies. You will also explore to what degree scientists believe the frequency and/or intensity of tornadic storms are affected by climate change. \n\nThe Teach-Out will address the following questions:\nWhat is a thunderstorm and how do some become severe?\nWhere are tornadic thunderstorms likely to form?\nWhat are the combination of conditions needed to create a tornadic thunderstorm?\nHow can you best prepare for a tornado in your community?\nIs there any reason to believe that the frequency or intensity of tornadoes is likely to increase in the future due to climate change?\n\nThis Teach-Out is part of the Extreme Weather Series\, a multi-part examination of the causes of various extreme weather events and to what degree climate change impacts the frequency or intensity of these events. We will also provide participants with strategies and resources to better prepare or respond to extreme weather in their own context. \n\nA Teach-Out is:\n\n-an event – it takes place over a fixed\, short period of time\n\n-an opportunity – it is open for free participation to everyone around the world\n\n-a community – it will be joined by a large number of diverse individuals\n\n-a conversation – an opportunity to give and take ideas and information from people\n\nThe University of Michigan Teach-Out Series provides just-in-time community learning events for participants around the world to come together in conversation with the U-M campus community\, including faculty experts.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Gifts of Art presents Beauty Meets My Mess: Mixed Media Collage
DESCRIPTION:Re Kielar was born in Chicago’s little Italy neighborhood with her grandparents upstairs and aunt and uncle across the courtyard. Her world was very Italian\, and when she walked outside\, she felt like she was leaving one country and entering another. Ever since she was a child\, she has loved paint and texture and seen beauty in the most unlikely places. Her artwork expresses human emotion through drawing in ink with rough papers\, old book pages\, metal embellishments and natural objects. Each abstract collage is coupled with her poetry\, so each piece is a walk into her soul. She hopes that by sharing that which is broken\, we can find healing spaces that knit our hearts together.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Gifts of Art presents Timeless Instants: Still Life Photographs
DESCRIPTION:Originally from Kansas City\, Tina West discovered photography while studying sculpture. She sees her photographs more as paintings\, and her still lifes have powerful cast shadows and frequent light play. Influenced by Gerhardt Richter and surrealism\, West’s images communicate a sense of being\, connecting not only the objects in the photographs\, but also the viewer and the photograph. She draws inspiration from the objects in her vast collection of unique treasures\, and she speaks to their unreserved timelessness with maturity and wonder. All of the images in this exhibit were created using instant film in a 4x5 view camera.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Mr. Vignaud's Maps: Unraveling a Cartographic Mystery from the Golden Age of Dutch Cartography
DESCRIPTION:In 1922 the University of Michigan acquired the library of Henry Vignaud\, an American diplomat living in Paris\, whose extensive personal library included thousands of books\, atlases\, maps\, and other publications. Many of Vignaud's maps were extracted from broken atlases\, originally published by the illustrious Hondius and Janssonius publishing houses. Staff in the Clark Library sought to organize these fascinating maps based on their physical characteristics and similarities\, with the ultimate goal of reassembling the original atlases.\n\nThis exhibit and the accompanying online exhibit (https://www.lib.umich.edu/online-exhibits/exhibits/show/rediscoveringvignaud) feature the results of their remarkable findings\, as well as a glimpse into the history of the Golden Age of mapmaking in 17th century Amsterdam.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Abstract Ancestry: Machine-Works on Paper
DESCRIPTION:Detroit-based artist Matthew Angelo Harrison takes a satirical look at historical narratives—exploring issues of race\, design\, mortality and industry—by making use of analog and digital technologies. For his solo show\, \"Abstract Ancestry\,\" at University of Michigan Institute for the Humanities\, Harrison will produce a suite of mechanical drawings with his homemade 3D printer. Using books and documents containing problematic historical portrayals as the substrate for his drawings\, Harrison is able to explore issues of representation. The exhibition also examines abstraction\, setting the printers to work at a low resolution ensures that imperfections and variability come through in these machine-produced drawings.\n\nOn April 5\, join us as we celebrate the opening of our final exhibition of the academic year with our 2018 Efroymson Emerging Artist in Residence Matthew Angelo Harrison. Harrison will be in conversation with curator Amanda Krugliak.\n\nThis project is funded by a grant from the Efroymson Family Fund.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:MANAGING CHRONIC PAIN WITHOUT OPIOIDS
DESCRIPTION:Daniel Clauw\, M.D. is a Professor of Anesthesiology\, Medicine\, and Psychiatry at the University of Michigan where he also attended undergraduate and medical school. He completed an internal medicine residency and rheumatology fellowship at Georgetown University\, where he held roles including Chief of Rheumatology and Vice Chair of Medicine. He moved to the University of Michigan in 2002\, with his research team\,\nbecoming the first Assistant and then Associate Dean for Clinical Research\, and the first PI of the University of Michigan Clinical and Translational Sciences Award. \n\nMarijuana is becoming decriminalized or legalized in many states\, often because of continued evidence that it may be an effective treatment for certain medical conditions\, especially chronic pain. However\, in addition to marijuana there are other options to exhaust before prescribing an opioid. This talk will present evidence regarding the potential benefits and risks of cannabis as well as other options that may be effective in the management of patients with chronic pain.\n\nThis is the third of a six-lecture series. The subject is Faces of Addiction. The next lecture will be May 10. The title is TREATING COURT-INVOLVED ADOLESCENT SUBSTANCE USERS: \nCHALLENGES AND OPPORTUNITIES

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Quaker Oats Makes a Movie: A Scrumdiddlyumptious Wonka Adventure
DESCRIPTION:​Quaker Oats forged a new path in the entertainment industry by jointly marketing consumer packaged goods and a major motion picture in 1971\, Willy Wonka and the Chocolate Factory. Having never made a motion picture before\, their foray into the filmmaking industry was unexpected and unprecedented. The company saw this film as an opportunity to essentially make a feature-length commercial for their new line of Wonka candy products.\n\nStudents in Matthew Solomon's class\, SAC 355: Authorship and the Archive\, culled though hundreds of production documents related to the film to curate an exhibit that tells a little known behind-the-scenes story about one of the most beloved films.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Exercising the Eye: The Gertrude Kasle Collection
DESCRIPTION:Gallery hours are 11 a.m.–5 p.m. Tuesday–Saturday and 12–5 p.m. Sunday\; galleries are closed on Mondays.\n\nThis exhibition celebrates Gertrude Kasle (1917–2016)\, a key figure in the formation of Detroit’s contemporary art community in the 1960s and 70s. A pioneering female gallerist\, Kasle provided midwest audiences with a venue in which to experience avant-garde art from centers like New York City\, while also supporting and exhibiting regional artists. Featuring a collection of paintings\, works on paper\, and sculptures from the height of the Abstract Expressionist movement through the early twenty-first century\, 'Exercising the Eye' speaks to the relationships Kasle fostered with local\, national\, and international artists and her appreciation for artistic expression and experimentation. Critical voices from the last fifty years include Philip Guston\, Jane Hammond\, Grace Hartigan\, Jasper Johns\, Michele Oka Doner\, and Robert Rauschenberg. The exhibition offers visitors a unique opportunity to explore a dynamic moment in Detroit’s cultural history and insight into Kasle’s love of looking and learning.\n\nLead support for 'Exercising the Eye: The Gertrude Kasle Collection' is provided by the University of Michigan Office of the Provost\, Michigan Medicine\, and the University of Michigan CEW Frances and Sydney Lewis Visiting Leaders Fund.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:New at UMMA: Illuminated Manuscript
DESCRIPTION:Books of hours—custom-made for private devotion in the Christian faith—were a bestseller in medieval Europe. These manuscripts incorporated prayers\, hymns\, biblical stories\, and monthly calendars featuring religious feast days\, which were often supplemented by images painted in exquisite detail. Today\, books of hours are a testament to the visually rich material culture of the Middle Ages. UMMA was recently gifted a bejeweled double-sided calendar leaf for January. Executed on parchment\, the page highlights the material opulence and artistry involved in manuscript illumination. Accompanying the calendar are painted images or miniatures of the labor and characteristic activity of the month\, and Aquarius\, the zodiac sign for January\, embodied by a man collecting water from a stream. The folio’s luminous\, gilded surface\, accentuated by the use of bright colors\, was meant to transport the medieval viewer into a state of spiritual transcendence. \n\nThis work was recently gifted to UMMA by Mrs. Carrol Robertsen.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Tim Noble and Sue Webster: The Masterpiece
DESCRIPTION:Since the 1980s\, British artists Tim Noble and Sue Webster have been known for their shadow sculptures built from materials as diverse as scrap metal\, garbage\, taxidermy\, and sex toys. When light is directed at these assemblages\, they project shadows that are exceptionally accurate and intricate representations of other things entirely.\n\n\"The Masterpiece\" (2014) is a shadow self-portrait of the artists created from metal casts of dead vermin they collected and welded together into a ball. From afar the casts appear to be a stunning abstract silver sculpture\; on closer inspection the disturbing menagerie of creatures emerges\, only to change form again—as a shadow on the wall—into a precise and elegant image that is astonishingly different from the objects that create it.\n\nLead support for \"Tim Noble and Sue Webster: The Masterpiece\" is provided by the Herbert W. and Susan L. Johe Endowment\, the Susan and Richard Gutow Fund\, and the University of Michigan Institute for the Humanities. Additional generous support is provided by the Richard and Janet Miller Fund.
