SUMMARY:Exhibition:Circulating the Avant-Garde: Aesthetic Counter-Publics in the Little Magazines\, 1890-1920
DESCRIPTION:Thanks to advances in color lithography and photo-engraving as well as resurgent interest in small-press publishing\, richly illustrated and typeset “little magazines” flourished between 1890 and 1920. The materials collected in this exhibit\, all held in the Special Collections Research Center\, showcase not only the variety\, beauty\, and originality of turn-of-the-century print-making\, but also new ideas about what a magazine can do: namely\, create distinctive communities around avant-garde ideas outside of mainstream channels. The communities imagined in these magazines are sometimes explicitly political or aesthetic\, but more often both combine in writers’ and artists’ resistance to mass-market\, industrial\, bourgeois\, and nationalist print cultures.\n\nThe magazines in this exhibit are mostly American and British\, but many are distinctively cosmopolitan\, crossing borders to engage with international movements like socialism\, decadence\, and modernism in their attempts to create an audience united by aesthetic and political ideals rather than nationality. Although the little magazines’ resistance to mainstream journalism shortened their lifespan and restricted their circulation\, their experimental approach has had a lasting impact on our sense of magazines as flexible aesthetic and social media.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Civitates Orbis Terrarum: Braun & Hogenberg’s Evolving World
DESCRIPTION:Civitates Orbis Terrarum (Cities of the World)\, the first standardized city atlas\, contains over 540 maps and views between its six volumes. First published in 1572 by Georg Braun (1541-1622) and Frans Hogenberg (1535-1590)\, Civitates was first intended as a companion to Ortelius’s Theatrum Orbis Terrarum. New editions of the city atlas continued to be printed through 1617. Hogenberg\, one of the most prolific engravers of the time\, was joined by many other engravers in creating the Civitates. Braun edited the work and provided the descriptions of the cities on the verso of each plate. This exhibit contains 18 works from the Civitates\, including many from the Clark Library’s holdings. Also included are reproductions of large panoramas Amsterdam\, London\, and St. Petersburg that reflect the evolution of city mapping through the 17th and 18th centuries.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Football & Pets: Paper Sculpture
DESCRIPTION:This exhibit of Steve Wirtz’ sculptures features a selection of his Dynamic Football series and animal works. The Dynamic Football laminated paper works explore compositions of action\, allowing the artist to exploit the properties of the medium. The pieces are constructed by gluing many layers of paper over wire armatures. When dry\, the sculptures are painted in an often splashy\, sketchy style. Wirtz’ silly animal works are what the artist is best known for\, and they take shape in his Goetzville\, Michigan studio.\n\nGifts of Art Gallery – University Hospital Main Corridor\, Floor 2\n1500 E.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Oil on Water: Painting on Linen
DESCRIPTION:Danielle Eubank is an award-winning artist who has been on four international sailing expeditions and painted every ocean on the planet to raise awareness about the oceans and climate change. Her large paintings are emotive abstract portraits of specific bodies of water. The Oil on Water exhibition features Eubank’s oil on linen paintings of the Arctic Ocean and the Mediterranean Sea. She creates patterns within patterns\, representing vertical stacks of rhythms. The undulating forms\, such as water ripples\, oil slicks\, and refuse\, combined with the memories that water evokes\, makes her work eye-opening\, yet soothing and sensual. \n\nGifts of Art Gallery – University Hospital Main Lobby\, Floor 1                                                                       \n1500 E.

DESCRIPTION:Introverted and shy by nature\, Laura Cavanagh uses her art as an outlet to create humorous larger than life personalities. In Pen & Ink Queens\, Cavanagh draws inspiration from medieval and renaissance-era garments to adorn quirky\, queenly figures. Cavanagh works in a style that is hyper-detailed and intricate\, so she remains present during the creative process. A true Michigander\, Cavanagh was born and raised in Southeast Michigan\, attended U-M\, and currently works in Detroit. Cavanagh makes a concerted effort to exhibit as much as possible in her home state\, and when she is not in her studio\, you can find her cooking\, practicing yoga or playing with her cat\, Benji.\n\nGifts of Art Gallery – University Hospital Main Corridor\, Floor 2\n1500 E.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Ваза: Copper & Brass Vessels
DESCRIPTION:Victoria (Vika) Bulgakova grew up in Ukraine\, a part of the former Soviet Union. She immigrated to the U.S. in 1994\, and for the next 22 years\, New York became her home. In 2016\, she moved to Michigan to pursue an MFA at Cranbrook Academy of Art. She found the raw beauty of Detroit inspiring and kept her metalsmithing studio practice in the city. The copper and brass vessels in her Ваза series and other included works are a meditation on fluidity of memories: their ability to shift from reflection to re-invention over time. Each vessel potentially holds something within its boundaries\, whether tangible or not. \n\nGifts of Art Gallery – Taubman Health Center North Lobby\, Floor 1\n1500 E.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Other Crusoes\, Other Islands: Mapping a Complex Legacy
DESCRIPTION:On the 300th anniversary of the publication of The Life and Surprising Adventures of Robinson Crusoe\, of York\, Mariner\, this exhibit interrogates the troubled legacy of Daniel Defoe’s seminal English novel. It also explores how creators have pushed back against the colonialist\, hyper-masculine\, and racist ethos of the text by using the castaway narrative to explore self-sufficiency\, otherness\, and the role of gendered and racialized ideas in constructing the self.\n\nThis novel of shipwreck\, survival\, and rescue has become a cultural touchstone. Today\, many people who haven’t read the novel still feel familiar with key plot elements\, Robinson Crusoe\, and Friday. Yet\, there is less familiarity with how both the original text and many of the adaptations of Robinson Crusoe have fed into and reinforced narratives of imperialism and racism. Drawing on the Hubbard Collection of Imaginary Voyages - one of the world’s most comprehensive collections of editions\, translations\, adaptations\, and spin-offs of Robinson Crusoe - Other Crusoes\, Other Islands seeks to understand how readers and writers have engaged with the story since its initial publication in 1719.\n\nContent Advisory: Please be aware that some items in this exhibit feature racist imagery and potentially painful content. Although Robinson Crusoe is often treated as children’s literature and this exhibit includes children’s books and board games\, it is not an exhibit geared towards children and reflects the significant shifts over time in ideas about what is appropriate for children.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Nature a Moment: Visions of the World from Three Korean-American Artists
DESCRIPTION:Three Chicago-area Korean-American artists render deeply personal interpretations of the natural world in the exhibit “Nature a Moment” at Matthaei Botanical Gardens. Using woodcut\, painting on canvas\, and mixed media\, Linda Hyong\, Sung Eun Hong\, and Seong Ok Lee explore the world of flowers\, gardens\, and nature in vivid works that slow time to a fleeting present moment.\n\nLinda Hyong is a University of Michigan alumna and former teaching assistant in the U-M Stamps School of Art & Design. She draws her inspiration from Claude Monet’s water lily garden in France to create her own modern interpretation of impressionism. Seong Ok Lee is inspired by flowers\, which she believes are the most beautiful forms in nature. In her dream-like\, nearly abstract paintings\, Sung Eun Hong communicates her vision of what she calls “pure dreams and fantasy.”\n\nExhibit runs September 14 through November 15\, 2019 at the\n\nUniversity of Michigan Matthaei Botanical Gardens\, 1800 N. Dixboro Rd.\, Ann Arbor. Free.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Strengths of Refugees and Their Community
DESCRIPTION:Refugees have been at the forefront of political discussion in the United States as the Syrian crisis escalates and xenophobia heightens. Much has been said regarding these refugees\, but all too often the voices of refugees themselves are left out of the conversation.\n\nThis exhibit uses the data collected from a Photovoice project\, combining photography and transcriptions from groups discussions with adolescent refugees to better understand the lived experiences of adolescent refugees. The gallery highlights five main themes that were discussed: Stability and Security\, Interpersonal Difficulties\, Rooting Factors\, Personal Growth\, and Contribution.\n\n“I wish I could help out people… Imma give them everything. Because they are my people\, I have to save my people.” -Alex

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Border Control: Traversing Horizons in Media Practice
DESCRIPTION:In September 2019\, the University of Michigan Penny W. Stamps School of Art & Design will host the New Media Caucus 2019 Symposium and Exhibition\, Border Control.  Symposium and exhibition events will take place in Ann Arbor at the Stamps School of Art and Design (2000 Bonisteel Blvd.) and Stamps Gallery (201 S. Division St.).\n\nExhibition Dates: September 20 - November 10\, 2019\nSymposium Dates: September 19 - 22\, 2019\nGuest Curator: Allison Collins\, Media Arts Curator\, Western Front\n\nCurated by Allison Collins in collaboration with Carrie Edinger and Srimoyee Mitra.\nIn partnership with the New Media Caucus \n\nHuman migration is a defining issue of the 21st century\, often calling into question the relevance\, role\, and responsibilities of national borders across the globe. As individuals seek refuge from geopolitical and environmental forces\, we become an increasingly globalized community. Demarcations of all types are simultaneously porous and closed\, defensive and receptive\, and seen in almost every facet of our existence. Border Control responds to these conditions with an open-ended question\, asking: “How has humanity made sense of the world in relation to borders and boundaries\, both physically and psychologically?” While positioned within (or outside of) defined spaces and identities\, human refusal of such literal definitions is paramount. Even while lines drawn have important consequences for lived reality\, the winds\, currents\, and natural energies of the Earth deny enclosures and definitions that politics and maps might suggest.\n\nDrawn from practices that are touched or driven by new media\, Border Control assembles works by artists who consider geographical contexts\, patterns of migration\, displacement\, and statelessness. Collectively\, they offer projects with subterfuge\, refusal\, and reconsideration of imposed state-sanctioned boundaries.\n\n \n\n

SUMMARY:Presentation:Science Forum Demo: Counting Cells
DESCRIPTION:Join us in the Science Forum for 15-20 minute engaging science demonstrations that will help you see the world around you in a whole new way. Demonstrations are appropriate for visitors ages 5 and above. \n\nThe human body is made of more than 37 trillion cells. Most of them need to be replaced every couple of months\, weeks\, or sometimes in the course of only a few days. Our cells grow and divide constantly to get this massive job done. But how do cells replicate themselves? How do things move in\, out\, and around the cell\, and into new cells? Join us as we explore how our bodies carry out this massive process. We will learn about cell structure and division and observe cells up-close and in action! \nFunded by the National Science Foundation.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Abstraction\, Color\, and Politics in the Early 1970s
DESCRIPTION:Can abstract art be about politics? In the early 1970s\, that question was hotly debated as artists\, critics\, and the public grappled with the relationship between art\, politics\, race\, and feminism. Many of those debates centered on bringing to light the roles that gender and race played in how “great modern art” was defined and assessed\, and on employing art to advance civil rights. Within this discourse\, abstraction had an especially fraught role. To many\, the decision by women artists and artists of color  to make abstract art seemed to represent a retreat from politics and protest: an abnegation of a commitment to civil rights and feminism. \"Abstraction\, Color\, and Politics in the Early 1970s\" presents large-scale work by four leading American artists—Helen Frankenthaler\, Sam Gilliam\, Al Loving\, and Louise Nevelson—who chose abstraction as a means of expression within the intense political climate of the early 1970s.\n\nLead support for \"Abstraction\, Color\, and Politics in the Early 1970s\" is provided by the University of Michigan Office of the Provost\, Michigan Medicine\, the Richard and Rosann Noel Endowment Fund\, the Herbert W. and Susan L. Johe Endowment\, and the University of Michigan Institute for Research on Women and Gender.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Abstraction\, Color\, and Politics:
DESCRIPTION:In the midst of the political and cultural upheavals of the 60s and 70s\, artists\, critics\, and the public grappled with the relationship between art\, politics\, race\, and feminism. During these decades\, the notion that abstraction was a purely formal and American art form\, concerned only with timeless themes disconnected from the present\, was met with increased skepticism. Women artists and artists of color began to actively and assertively explore abstraction’s possibilities. The artworks in Abstraction\, Color\, and Politics: The 1960s and 1970s demonstrate both radical and disarming changes in how artists worked and what they thought their art was about. Their new formal and intellectual strategies—seen here across large-scale and miniature work—dramatically transformed the practice of abstraction in the 1960s and 1970s in a politically shifting American landscape.\n\nUMMA gratefully acknowledges the following donors for their generous support:\n\nLead Exhibition Sponsors: University of Michigan Office of the Provost\, Michigan Medicine\, and College of Literature\, Science\, and the Arts\n\nExhibition Endowment Donors:  Richard and Rosann Noel Endowment Fund\, Herbert W. and Susan L. Johe Endowment\, and Robert and Janet Miller Fund\n\nUniversity of Michigan Funding Partners: Institute for Research on Women and Gender\, School of Social Work\, Department of Political Science\, and Department of Women's Studies

SUMMARY:Exhibition:New at UMMA: Walter Oltmann
DESCRIPTION:Infant Skull II\, a woven “tapestry” made out of very fine aluminum wire\, only reveals its shape when seen from afar. Drawing inspiration from his country’s basketry traditions\, the South African artist Walter Oltmann (b. 1960) alternates densely layered sections with open spaces\, allowing the underlying surface of the work to show through. The skull that emerges is\, in a South African context\, evocative of the Cradle of Humankind—a series of caves outside Johannesburg\, where some of the oldest hominin fossils in the world have been found.\n \nThe work complements UMMA’s renowned and growing collection of historical and contemporary African art and reminds us of the central role of Africa in the history of humankind. The purchase was made possible thanks to the generosity of UMMA Director's Acquisition Committee.\n\nThis acquisition was made possible by the generosity of the UMMA Director's Acquisition Committee\, 2016.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Exhibition | Graffiti as Devotion along the Nile: El-Kurru\, Sudan
DESCRIPTION:Ancient graffiti provide a unique glimpse into the lives of individuals in antiquity. Religious devotion in ancient Kush (a region located in modern-day northern Sudan)\, involved pilgrimage and leaving informal marks on temples\, pyramids\, and other monumental structures. These graffiti are found in temples throughout the later (“Meroitic”) period of Kush\, when it bordered Roman Egypt. They represent one of the few direct traces of the devotional practices of private people in Kush and hint at individuals’ thoughts\, values\, and daily lives. This exhibition explores the times and places in which Kushite graffiti were inscribed through photos\, text\, and interactive media presentations. At the heart of the show are the hundreds of Meroitic graffiti recently discovered in a rock-cut temple by the Kelsey expedition to El-Kurru in northern Sudan.\n\nCurators: Geoff Emberling and Suzanne Davis\n\nView the online exhibition:\nhttp://exhibitions.kelsey.lsa.umich.edu/graffiti-el-kurru/

DESCRIPTION:Join us in the Science Forum for 15-20 minute engaging science demonstrations that will help you see the world around you in a whole new way. Demonstrations are appropriate for visitors ages 5 and above. \n\nSaturdays and Sundays\, 3:00 p.m.\n\nExplore how fossils form and what parts of animals can become fossilized! How old are the earliest fossils? How old does something have to be before it is considered a fossil? You’ll touch some real fossils\, learn the different types of fossil evidence\, and discover what is necessary to become a fossil.  Finally\, we’ll discuss what kinds of things fossils can tell us\, and how fossil casts are made in the museum!

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:The Premodern Colloquium. Reading Storied Ground in Medieval Rome
DESCRIPTION:This paper argues that medieval Romans read elements in the city-scape to discover the evidence of sacred history.  I use three case studies linked to saints Peter and Paul:  divots in the Forum’s paving\, an ancient Roman votive offering\, and some springs at the church of Tre Fontane.  The divots in the Forum’s pavement were damage\, which Romans read as as signs of Christian history\, claiming them as the knee prints left by Peter and Paul when they prayed for Simon Magus’ defeat.  The votive offering is a pair of sculpted footprints. By the thirteenth century\, ignoring this origin\, Romans read them as Jesus’s footprints\, left on the spot where he greeted Peter at the walls of Rome. Both cases display a dominant factor in medieval people’s material imagination:  the ability to read the stories they knew in the things they saw.  The springs at Tre Fontane are a third kind of thing\, a natural phenomenon\, and they add a new kind of reading.  Tre Fontane was taken as the site of Paul’s decapitation\,  after which his head bounced three times\, each bounce creating a spring.  This story differs from the preceding cases in that it was the product of reading both the landscape and images of Paul’s martyrdom\, which together suggested information absent from text.  Taken together\, the three cases indicate that medieval Romans read their city’s urban and natural features in creative\, sophisticated and contingent ways.\n\n For more information\, please email willette@umich.edu.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Circulating the Avant-Garde: Aesthetic Counter-Publics in the Little Magazines\, 1890-1920
DESCRIPTION:Thanks to advances in color lithography and photo-engraving as well as resurgent interest in small-press publishing\, richly illustrated and typeset “little magazines” flourished between 1890 and 1920. The materials collected in this exhibit\, all held in the Special Collections Research Center\, showcase not only the variety\, beauty\, and originality of turn-of-the-century print-making\, but also new ideas about what a magazine can do: namely\, create distinctive communities around avant-garde ideas outside of mainstream channels. The communities imagined in these magazines are sometimes explicitly political or aesthetic\, but more often both combine in writers’ and artists’ resistance to mass-market\, industrial\, bourgeois\, and nationalist print cultures.\n\nThe magazines in this exhibit are mostly American and British\, but many are distinctively cosmopolitan\, crossing borders to engage with international movements like socialism\, decadence\, and modernism in their attempts to create an audience united by aesthetic and political ideals rather than nationality. Although the little magazines’ resistance to mainstream journalism shortened their lifespan and restricted their circulation\, their experimental approach has had a lasting impact on our sense of magazines as flexible aesthetic and social media.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Civitates Orbis Terrarum: Braun & Hogenberg’s Evolving World
DESCRIPTION:Civitates Orbis Terrarum (Cities of the World)\, the first standardized city atlas\, contains over 540 maps and views between its six volumes. First published in 1572 by Georg Braun (1541-1622) and Frans Hogenberg (1535-1590)\, Civitates was first intended as a companion to Ortelius’s Theatrum Orbis Terrarum. New editions of the city atlas continued to be printed through 1617. Hogenberg\, one of the most prolific engravers of the time\, was joined by many other engravers in creating the Civitates. Braun edited the work and provided the descriptions of the cities on the verso of each plate. This exhibit contains 18 works from the Civitates\, including many from the Clark Library’s holdings. Also included are reproductions of large panoramas Amsterdam\, London\, and St. Petersburg that reflect the evolution of city mapping through the 17th and 18th centuries.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Ваза: Copper & Brass Vessels
DESCRIPTION:Victoria (Vika) Bulgakova grew up in Ukraine\, a part of the former Soviet Union. She immigrated to the U.S. in 1994\, and for the next 22 years\, New York became her home.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Other Crusoes\, Other Islands: Mapping a Complex Legacy
DESCRIPTION:On the 300th anniversary of the publication of The Life and Surprising Adventures of Robinson Crusoe\, of York\, Mariner\, this exhibit interrogates the troubled legacy of Daniel Defoe’s seminal English novel. It also explores how creators have pushed back against the colonialist\, hyper-masculine\, and racist ethos of the text by using the castaway narrative to explore self-sufficiency\, otherness\, and the role of gendered and racialized ideas in constructing the self.\n\nThis novel of shipwreck\, survival\, and rescue has become a cultural touchstone. Today\, many people who haven’t read the novel still feel familiar with key plot elements\, Robinson Crusoe\, and Friday. Yet\, there is less familiarity with how both the original text and many of the adaptations of Robinson Crusoe have fed into and reinforced narratives of imperialism and racism. Drawing on the Hubbard Collection of Imaginary Voyages - one of the world’s most comprehensive collections of editions\, translations\, adaptations\, and spin-offs of Robinson Crusoe - Other Crusoes\, Other Islands seeks to understand how readers and writers have engaged with the story since its initial publication in 1719.\n\nContent Advisory: Please be aware that some items in this exhibit feature racist imagery and potentially painful content. Although Robinson Crusoe is often treated as children’s literature and this exhibit includes children’s books and board games\, it is not an exhibit geared towards children and reflects the significant shifts over time in ideas about what is appropriate for children.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Yo Tengo Nombre
DESCRIPTION:This series of paintings was inspired by the Trump administration’s “zero tolerance” immigration policy and the images of migrant families being separated and detained at the US-Mexico border that dominated media outlets across the nation since the summer of 2017. The exhibition also includes nearly 100 I.D. photos of migrant children from a Texas holding center. Buentello took the photos  in 2014 while working for an intake agency.\n\n\"Focusing on images from the US media sources that exposed the violence of migrants’ dehumanization\, vulnerability\, fear\, loss\, and criminalization\, the paintings document the embodiment of state-authorized brutality and erasures of personhood.\" -Ruth Leonela Buentello\n\nThis project is funded by a grant from the Efroymson Family Fund.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Nature a Moment: Visions of the World from Three Korean-American Artists
DESCRIPTION:Three Chicago-area Korean-American artists render deeply personal interpretations of the natural world in the exhibit “Nature a Moment” at Matthaei Botanical Gardens. Using woodcut\, painting on canvas\, and mixed media\, Linda Hyong\, Sung Eun Hong\, and Seong Ok Lee explore the world of flowers\, gardens\, and nature in vivid works that slow time to a fleeting present moment.\n\nLinda Hyong is a University of Michigan alumna and former teaching assistant in the U-M Stamps School of Art & Design. She draws her inspiration from Claude Monet’s water lily garden in France to create her own modern interpretation of impressionism. Seong Ok Lee is inspired by flowers\, which she believes are the most beautiful forms in nature. In her dream-like\, nearly abstract paintings\, Sung Eun Hong communicates her vision of what she calls “pure dreams and fantasy.”\n\nExhibit runs September 14 through November 15\, 2019 at the\n\nUniversity of Michigan Matthaei Botanical Gardens\, 1800 N. Dixboro Rd.\, Ann Arbor. Free.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Strengths of Refugees and Their Community
DESCRIPTION:Refugees have been at the forefront of political discussion in the United States as the Syrian crisis escalates and xenophobia heightens. Much has been said regarding these refugees\, but all too often the voices of refugees themselves are left out of the conversation.\n\nThis exhibit uses the data collected from a Photovoice project\, combining photography and transcriptions from groups discussions with adolescent refugees to better understand the lived experiences of adolescent refugees. The gallery highlights five main themes that were discussed: Stability and Security\, Interpersonal Difficulties\, Rooting Factors\, Personal Growth\, and Contribution.\n\n“I wish I could help out people… Imma give them everything. Because they are my people\, I have to save my people.” -Alex

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Jason MacLean: Recurrent Interactions can Explain the Variance in Single Trial Responses
DESCRIPTION:Abstract: To develop a complete description of sensory encoding\, it is necessary to account for trial-to-trial variability in cortical neurons. Using a generalized linear model with terms corresponding to the visual stimulus\, mouse running speed\, and experimentally measured neuronal correlations\, we modeled short term dynamics of L2/3 murine visual cortical neurons to evaluate the relative importance of each factor to neuronal variability within single trials. We find single trial predictions improve most when conditioning on the experimentally measured local correlations in comparison to predictions based on the stimulus or running speed. Specifically\, accurate predictions are driven by positively co-varying and synchronously active functional groups of neurons. Including functional groups in the model enhances decoding accuracy of sensory information compared to a model that assumes neuronal independence. Functional groups\, in encoding and decoding frameworks\, provide an operational definition of Hebbian assemblies in which local correlations largely explain neuronal responses on individual trials.\n\nBio: Jason MacLean is an Associate Professor in the Department of Neurobiology and director of undergraduate studies in neuroscience at the University of Chicago.  His research aims to define how information is encoded in the brain by large groups of synaptically interconnected neurons using a range of analytical approaches.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Social\, Behavioral & Experimental Economics (SBEE): Motivated Errors
DESCRIPTION:Abstract:\n\nIn three sets of experiments involving over 3300 individuals\, we show that agents motivated to be selfish or to hold egoistic beliefs make systematic errors that appear to be driven by cognitive limitations. We further show that that these errors are eliminated (or dramatically reduced) when self-serving motives are removed. Put differently\, we find that individuals make “motivated errors” — they act as if they are cognitively limited\, but only when it is self-serving to do so.

SUMMARY:Presentation:Developmental Brown Bag:  Introducing elevation to the study of children’s developing prosociality
DESCRIPTION:Abstract:\nSocial constructivism posits that helping behaviour emerges through young children’s interactions with others. This would result in a social motivation whereby children help others because they want to provide the help themselves. However\, in a series of studies we find better support for an alternative explanation of children’s helping behaviour\, one that emphasizes their prosocial motivation to maintain cooperative relationships with others\, including their peers. To this end we studied a prosocial emotion that has thus far received little attention in the developmental literature: elevation. The central finding is that young children express positive emotions when seeing others being helped and more specifically when seeing others get the help they deserve. The pattern from a series of studies suggests that young children’s prosocial emotions are regulated not only by concern for their personal gain or by sympathy for others\, but reflect an emerging sense of deservingness as determined by social comparison.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:\"RNA Therapeutics: The Future of Human Medicine\"
DESCRIPTION:Please join us immediately after Anastasia's talk for a welcome reception in Palmer Commons Atrium (4th floor).\n\n\nABSTRACT: With the first drugs approved\, oligonucleotides are rising to become a new\, major class of therapeutic modalities on par with small molecules and biologics.\nRNAi enables simple and specific modulation of gene expression when the chemical architecture supporting efficient delivery in vivo is defined. Currently\, in liver\, a single subcutaneous administration supports a year of clinical efficacy\, changing our vision of how medicine will be practiced in the future.\nThe unprecedented duration of effect relies on oligonucleotide endocytosis and entrapment within endosomal/lysosomal compartments. These naturally formed\, intracellular deposits provide a continuous release of compounds for RISC loading and productive silencing\, supporting multi-month efficacy.  Of course\, this approach is dependent on extensive and complex chemical stabilization that ensures the survival of the oligonucleotides in highly aggressive biological environments.\nIn the context of fully stabilized compounds\, we have used diverse chemical engineering to define the rules driving oligonucleotide distribution\, efficacy\, and toxicity. At this point\, efficient modulation of gene expression in multiple extrahepatic tissues is possible (muscle\, heart\, fat\, placenta\, etc). One of our engineering efforts resulted in the identification of a di-branched chemical scaffold that enables potent and durable gene silencing in the brain and spinal cord. Using huntingtin – the causative gene in Huntington disease – as a model\, we demonstrate that CNS-active RNAi induces potent protein silencing (~ 90%) in all brain regions tested in both rodents and non-human primates. Silencing persists for at least six months\, with the degree of gene modulation correlating to the level of the guide strand tissue accumulation. \nDemonstration of extrahepatic activity\, in particular the development of a CNS-active RNAi scaffold\, is opening other tissues and the brain for RNAi-based modulation of gene expression and establishing a path toward the development of new cures for genetically-defined neurodegenerative disorders.

SUMMARY:Film Screening:Angélica
DESCRIPTION:Please join us for a screening of the Puerto Rican film Angélica (2017). Following the screening\, filmmaker Marisol Gómez-Mouakad will hold a Q&A.\n\nSynopsis:\nAngelica\, after a long absence from Puerto Rico\, returns when\nher father\, Wilfredo\, suffers a stroke. This forced return and her father’s illness\, forces Angelica to re-evaluate her relationship with her mother\, and with her family members who don’t accept her because of her skin color. All this will force her to face herself and discover that she does not know who she is. Furthermore she does not like herself.

SUMMARY:Film Screening:Film Screening: Angélica
DESCRIPTION:This screening of the Puerto Rican film Angélica will include a brief presentation and Q&A with filmmaker Marisol Gómez-Mouakad. The event is free and open to the public and aims to connect the U of M academic community\, including students\, faculty\, and staff with the broader Ann Arbor community.\n\nAngelica\, after a long absence from Puerto Rico\, returns when her father\, Wilfredo\, suffers a stroke. This forced return and her father’s illness\, forces Angelica to re-evaluate her relationship with her mother\, and with her family members who don’t accept her because of her skin color. All this will force her to face herself and discover that she does not know who she is. Furthermore she does not like herself. After her father’s death\, Angelica must decide whether to return to the comfort of her previous life\, dissatisfied\, but secure\, or set on an adventurous path to rediscover herself as an independent\, modern\, strong\, mulatto\, and Puerto Rican woman in a globalized world that is in the cusp of the twenty-first century.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Public Finance: The Economic Consequences of Being Denied an Abortion
DESCRIPTION:Abstract:\n\nRestrictions on abortion are pervasive\, yet relatively little is known about the effect of being denied an abortion on women who seek one while pregnant. This paper evaluates the economic consequences of being denied an abortion on the basis of gestational age of the pregnancy. Our analysis relies on new linkages to administrative data on ten years of credit reports for participants in the Turnaway Study\, the first study to collect high-quality\, longitudinal data on women receiving or being denied a wanted abortion. The study recruited women seeking an abortion at 30 health providers located in 21 states who fell in to one of two groups: the first group included women with pregnancies close to the facility's gestational age limit who received a wanted abortion (Near Limit Abortion Group)\, while the second group was women with pregnancies just over the facility's gestational age limit who were turned away without receiving an abortion (Turnaway Group). Our analysis compares differences in credit report outcomes for these two groups for 3 years prior and up to 5 years following the intended abortion using an event study design. We find that the trajectories for these outcomes are similar for the two groups of women during the pre-period. However\, following their visit to the abortion provider\, we find evidence of a large and persistent increase in financial distress for the women who were denied an abortion that is sustained for the 6 years following the intended abortion.\n\nWith Diana G. Foster (UCSF) and Laura R. Wherry (UCLA)

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:IOE 813 Seminar: Jim Bagian\, MD\, PE
DESCRIPTION:It has been twenty years since patient safety was thrust into the public and professional consciousness of healthcare. Despite the attention that has been given this complex topic in both the professional and lay press the progress towards making patient safety a real priority in healthcare has been limited. Transforming healthcare so that patient safety becomes an inherent property embedded in the very fabric of the organization requires the adoption of a variety of values\, techniques\, and processes that are continually  reinforced by the words and deeds of leadership at all levels. Critical elements and methods for achieving this goal will be discussed.\n\nDr. James P. Bagian is the Director of the Center for Healthcare Engineering and Patient Safety and is a Professor in the  Department of Anesthesiology in the Medical School and the College of Engineering at the University of Michigan. Previously\, he served as the first Director of the VA National Center for Patient Safety (NCPS) and the first Chief Patient Safety Officer for the Department of Veterans Affairs from 1999 to 2010 where he developed numerous patient safety related tools and programs that have been adopted nationally and internationally. Dr. Bagian served as a NASA astronaut and is a veteran of two Space Shuttle missions and was an investigator of both the Challenger and Columbia Space Shuttle mishaps. Presently\, he is applying systems engineering approaches to the analysis of medical adverse events and the development and implementation of systems-based corrective actions that will enhance patient safety primarily through preventive means. He received his B.S. in mechanical engineering from Drexel University and his M.D. from Jefferson Medical College at Thomas Jefferson University. He is a Fellow of the Aerospace Medical Association\, a member of the National Academy of Engineering\, the Institute of Medicine\, and has received numerous awards for his work in the field of patient safety and aerospace medicine.\n\n1123 LBME is room 1123 in the Ann & Robert H. Lurie Biomedical Engineering Building (LBME).  The street address is 1101 Beal Avenue.  A map and directions are available at:  http://www.bme.umich.edu/about/directions.php.\n\nThis seminar series is presented by the U-M Center for Healthcare Engineering and Patient Safety (CHEPS): Our mission is to improve the safety and quality of healthcare delivery through a multi-disciplinary\, systems-engineering approach.  \n\nFor additional information and to be added to the weekly e-mail for the series\, please contact genehkim@umich.edu. \n\nPhotographs and video taken at this event may be used to promote CHEPS\, College of Engineering\, and the University.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:MEMS Lecture Series. 'It Began with a Picture'\, or\, Inventing Stories to Make Sense of Images in the European Middle Ages.
DESCRIPTION:This paper examines medieval discussions of iconography\, what an image represents.  It concentrates on what Dale Kinney has called narrative etiologies\, that is cases where medieval viewers\, provoked by an image they did not understand\, invent a story that explains it.  My examples include the contested reception of ruler portraits\,  inquiries into images in churches\, and narrative elaborations on hagiographical images.  These cases demonstrate that medieval viewers were quite happy to accept Pope Gregory the Great's invitation to read images as the literate read texts.  For the art historian\, they offer gratifying proof that images may provoke verbal narratives instead of merely depending on them.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Circulating the Avant-Garde: Aesthetic Counter-Publics in the Little Magazines\, 1890-1920
DESCRIPTION:Thanks to advances in color lithography and photo-engraving as well as resurgent interest in small-press publishing\, richly illustrated and typeset “little magazines” flourished between 1890 and 1920. The materials collected in this exhibit\, all held in the Special Collections Research Center\, showcase not only the variety\, beauty\, and originality of turn-of-the-century print-making\, but also new ideas about what a magazine can do: namely\, create distinctive communities around avant-garde ideas outside of mainstream channels. The communities imagined in these magazines are sometimes explicitly political or aesthetic\, but more often both combine in writers’ and artists’ resistance to mass-market\, industrial\, bourgeois\, and nationalist print cultures.\n\nThe magazines in this exhibit are mostly American and British\, but many are distinctively cosmopolitan\, crossing borders to engage with international movements like socialism\, decadence\, and modernism in their attempts to create an audience united by aesthetic and political ideals rather than nationality. Although the little magazines’ resistance to mainstream journalism shortened their lifespan and restricted their circulation\, their experimental approach has had a lasting impact on our sense of magazines as flexible aesthetic and social media.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Civitates Orbis Terrarum: Braun & Hogenberg’s Evolving World
DESCRIPTION:Civitates Orbis Terrarum (Cities of the World)\, the first standardized city atlas\, contains over 540 maps and views between its six volumes. First published in 1572 by Georg Braun (1541-1622) and Frans Hogenberg (1535-1590)\, Civitates was first intended as a companion to Ortelius’s Theatrum Orbis Terrarum. New editions of the city atlas continued to be printed through 1617. Hogenberg\, one of the most prolific engravers of the time\, was joined by many other engravers in creating the Civitates. Braun edited the work and provided the descriptions of the cities on the verso of each plate. This exhibit contains 18 works from the Civitates\, including many from the Clark Library’s holdings. Also included are reproductions of large panoramas Amsterdam\, London\, and St. Petersburg that reflect the evolution of city mapping through the 17th and 18th centuries.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Football & Pets: Paper Sculpture
DESCRIPTION:This exhibit of Steve Wirtz’ sculptures features a selection of his Dynamic Football series and animal works. The Dynamic Football laminated paper works explore compositions of action\, allowing the artist to exploit the properties of the medium. The pieces are constructed by gluing many layers of paper over wire armatures. When dry\, the sculptures are painted in an often splashy\, sketchy style. Wirtz’ silly animal works are what the artist is best known for\, and they take shape in his Goetzville\, Michigan studio.\n\nGifts of Art Gallery – University Hospital Main Corridor\, Floor 2\n1500 E.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Oil on Water: Painting on Linen
DESCRIPTION:Danielle Eubank is an award-winning artist who has been on four international sailing expeditions and painted every ocean on the planet to raise awareness about the oceans and climate change. Her large paintings are emotive abstract portraits of specific bodies of water. The Oil on Water exhibition features Eubank’s oil on linen paintings of the Arctic Ocean and the Mediterranean Sea. She creates patterns within patterns\, representing vertical stacks of rhythms. The undulating forms\, such as water ripples\, oil slicks\, and refuse\, combined with the memories that water evokes\, makes her work eye-opening\, yet soothing and sensual. \n\nGifts of Art Gallery – University Hospital Main Lobby\, Floor 1                                                                       \n1500 E.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Ваза: Copper & Brass Vessels
DESCRIPTION:Victoria (Vika) Bulgakova grew up in Ukraine\, a part of the former Soviet Union. She immigrated to the U.S. in 1994\, and for the next 22 years\, New York became her home. In 2016\, she moved to Michigan to pursue an MFA at Cranbrook Academy of Art. She found the raw beauty of Detroit inspiring and kept her metalsmithing studio practice in the city. The copper and brass vessels in her Ваза series and other included works are a meditation on fluidity of memories: their ability to shift from reflection to re-invention over time. Each vessel potentially holds something within its boundaries\, whether tangible or not. \n\nGifts of Art Gallery – Taubman Health Center North Lobby\, Floor 1\n1500 E.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Exhibition | Graffiti as Devotion along the Nile: El-Kurru\, Sudan
DESCRIPTION:Ancient graffiti provide a unique glimpse into the lives of individuals in antiquity. Religious devotion in ancient Kush (a region located in modern-day northern Sudan)\, involved pilgrimage and leaving informal marks on temples\, pyramids\, and other monumental structures. These graffiti are found in temples throughout the later (“Meroitic”) period of Kush\, when it bordered Roman Egypt. They represent one of the few direct traces of the devotional practices of private people in Kush and hint at individuals’ thoughts\, values\, and daily lives. This exhibition explores the times and places in which Kushite graffiti were inscribed through photos\, text\, and interactive media presentations. At the heart of the show are the hundreds of Meroitic graffiti recently discovered in a rock-cut temple by the Kelsey expedition to El-Kurru in northern Sudan.\n\nCurators: Geoff Emberling and Suzanne Davis\n\nView the online exhibition:\nhttp://exhibitions.kelsey.lsa.umich.edu/graffiti-el-kurru/

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Other Crusoes\, Other Islands: Mapping a Complex Legacy
DESCRIPTION:On the 300th anniversary of the publication of The Life and Surprising Adventures of Robinson Crusoe\, of York\, Mariner\, this exhibit interrogates the troubled legacy of Daniel Defoe’s seminal English novel. It also explores how creators have pushed back against the colonialist\, hyper-masculine\, and racist ethos of the text by using the castaway narrative to explore self-sufficiency\, otherness\, and the role of gendered and racialized ideas in constructing the self.\n\nThis novel of shipwreck\, survival\, and rescue has become a cultural touchstone. Today\, many people who haven’t read the novel still feel familiar with key plot elements\, Robinson Crusoe\, and Friday. Yet\, there is less familiarity with how both the original text and many of the adaptations of Robinson Crusoe have fed into and reinforced narratives of imperialism and racism. Drawing on the Hubbard Collection of Imaginary Voyages - one of the world’s most comprehensive collections of editions\, translations\, adaptations\, and spin-offs of Robinson Crusoe - Other Crusoes\, Other Islands seeks to understand how readers and writers have engaged with the story since its initial publication in 1719.\n\nContent Advisory: Please be aware that some items in this exhibit feature racist imagery and potentially painful content. Although Robinson Crusoe is often treated as children’s literature and this exhibit includes children’s books and board games\, it is not an exhibit geared towards children and reflects the significant shifts over time in ideas about what is appropriate for children.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Yo Tengo Nombre
DESCRIPTION:This series of paintings was inspired by the Trump administration’s “zero tolerance” immigration policy and the images of migrant families being separated and detained at the US-Mexico border that dominated media outlets across the nation since the summer of 2017. The exhibition also includes nearly 100 I.D. photos of migrant children from a Texas holding center. Buentello took the photos  in 2014 while working for an intake agency.\n\n\"Focusing on images from the US media sources that exposed the violence of migrants’ dehumanization\, vulnerability\, fear\, loss\, and criminalization\, the paintings document the embodiment of state-authorized brutality and erasures of personhood.\" -Ruth Leonela Buentello\n\nThis project is funded by a grant from the Efroymson Family Fund.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Nature a Moment: Visions of the World from Three Korean-American Artists
DESCRIPTION:Three Chicago-area Korean-American artists render deeply personal interpretations of the natural world in the exhibit “Nature a Moment” at Matthaei Botanical Gardens. Using woodcut\, painting on canvas\, and mixed media\, Linda Hyong\, Sung Eun Hong\, and Seong Ok Lee explore the world of flowers\, gardens\, and nature in vivid works that slow time to a fleeting present moment.\n\nLinda Hyong is a University of Michigan alumna and former teaching assistant in the U-M Stamps School of Art & Design. She draws her inspiration from Claude Monet’s water lily garden in France to create her own modern interpretation of impressionism. Seong Ok Lee is inspired by flowers\, which she believes are the most beautiful forms in nature. In her dream-like\, nearly abstract paintings\, Sung Eun Hong communicates her vision of what she calls “pure dreams and fantasy.”\n\nExhibit runs September 14 through November 15\, 2019 at the\n\nUniversity of Michigan Matthaei Botanical Gardens\, 1800 N. Dixboro Rd.\, Ann Arbor. Free.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Abstraction\, Color\, and Politics in the Early 1970s
DESCRIPTION:Can abstract art be about politics? In the early 1970s\, that question was hotly debated as artists\, critics\, and the public grappled with the relationship between art\, politics\, race\, and feminism. Many of those debates centered on bringing to light the roles that gender and race played in how “great modern art” was defined and assessed\, and on employing art to advance civil rights. Within this discourse\, abstraction had an especially fraught role. To many\, the decision by women artists and artists of color  to make abstract art seemed to represent a retreat from politics and protest: an abnegation of a commitment to civil rights and feminism. Abstraction\, Color\, and Politics in the Early 1970s presents large-scale work by four leading American artists—Helen Frankenthaler\, Sam Gilliam\, Al Loving\, and Louise Nevelson—who chose abstraction as a means of expression within the intense political climate of the early 1970s.\n\nUMMA gratefully acknowledges the following donors for their generous support of this exhibition:\n\nLead Exhibition Sponsors: University of Michigan Office of the Provost\, Michigan Medicine\, and College of Literature\, Science\, and the Arts\n\nExhibition Endowment Donors:  Richard and Rosann Noel Endowment Fund\, Herbert W. and Susan L. Johe Endowment\, and Robert and Janet Miller Fund\n\nUniversity of Michigan Funding Partners: Institute for Research on Women and Gender\, School of Social Work\, Department of Political Science\, and Department of Women's Studies

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Abstraction\, Color\, and Politics:
DESCRIPTION:In the midst of the political and cultural upheavals of the 60s and 70s\, artists\, critics\, and the public grappled with the relationship between art\, politics\, race\, and feminism. During these decades\, the notion that abstraction was a purely formal and American art form\, concerned only with timeless themes disconnected from the present\, was met with increased skepticism. Women artists and artists of color began to actively and assertively explore abstraction’s possibilities. The artworks in Abstraction\, Color\, and Politics: The 1960s and 1970s demonstrate both radical and disarming changes in how artists worked and what they thought their art was about. Their new formal and intellectual strategies—seen here across large-scale and miniature work—dramatically transformed the practice of abstraction in the 1960s and 1970s in a politically shifting American landscape.\n\nUMMA gratefully acknowledges the following donors for their generous support:\n\nLead Exhibition Sponsors: University of Michigan Office of the Provost\, Michigan Medicine\, and College of Literature\, Science\, and the Arts\n\nExhibition Endowment Donors:  Richard and Rosann Noel Endowment Fund\, Herbert W. and Susan L. Johe Endowment\, and Robert and Janet Miller Fund\n\nUniversity of Michigan Funding Partners: Institute for Research on Women and Gender\, School of Social Work\, Department of Political Science\, and Department of Women's Studies

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Border Control: Traversing Horizons in Media Practice
DESCRIPTION:In September 2019\, the University of Michigan Penny W. Stamps School of Art & Design will host the New Media Caucus 2019 Symposium and Exhibition\, Border Control.  Symposium and exhibition events will take place in Ann Arbor at the Stamps School of Art and Design (2000 Bonisteel Blvd.) and Stamps Gallery (201 S. Division St.).\n\nExhibition Dates: September 20 - November 10\, 2019\nSymposium Dates: September 19 - 22\, 2019\nGuest Curator: Allison Collins\, Media Arts Curator\, Western Front\n\nCurated by Allison Collins in collaboration with Carrie Edinger and Srimoyee Mitra.\nIn partnership with the New Media Caucus \n\nHuman migration is a defining issue of the 21st century\, often calling into question the relevance\, role\, and responsibilities of national borders across the globe. As individuals seek refuge from geopolitical and environmental forces\, we become an increasingly globalized community. Demarcations of all types are simultaneously porous and closed\, defensive and receptive\, and seen in almost every facet of our existence. Border Control responds to these conditions with an open-ended question\, asking: “How has humanity made sense of the world in relation to borders and boundaries\, both physically and psychologically?” While positioned within (or outside of) defined spaces and identities\, human refusal of such literal definitions is paramount. Even while lines drawn have important consequences for lived reality\, the winds\, currents\, and natural energies of the Earth deny enclosures and definitions that politics and maps might suggest.\n\nDrawn from practices that are touched or driven by new media\, Border Control assembles works by artists who consider geographical contexts\, patterns of migration\, displacement\, and statelessness. Collectively\, they offer projects with subterfuge\, refusal\, and reconsideration of imposed state-sanctioned boundaries.\n\n \n\n

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Copies and Invention in East Asia
DESCRIPTION:Far from being frowned upon as uncreative\, in China\, Korea\, and Japan\, copying has long been considered a valuable practice. Through works of art spanning ancient to contemporary times\, Copies and Invention in East Asia challenges our understanding of originality\, and presents copying as an act of imaginative interpretation. The exhibition includes burial goods that conjure a world for the deceased\; Buddhist sculptures produced in multiples to amplify religious experience and meaning\; paintings in which a master’s brushstrokes are faithfully duplicated as a way of shaping the self\; and contemporary works that address multiplicity and duplication in the modern world.\n\nLead support is provided by the University of Michigan Office of the Provost\, Michigan Medicine\, Lieberthal-Rogel Center for Chinese Studies\, Center for Japanese Studies\, Nam Center for Korean Studies\, School of Information\, and College of Engineering. Additional generous support is provided by the University of Michigan Fabrication Studio at the Duderstadt Center\, the Department of Asian Languages and Cultures\, and SeeMeCNC 3D Printers.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:New at UMMA: Walter Oltmann
DESCRIPTION:Infant Skull II\, a woven “tapestry” made out of very fine aluminum wire\, only reveals its shape when seen from afar. Drawing inspiration from his country’s basketry traditions\, the South African artist Walter Oltmann (b. 1960) alternates densely layered sections with open spaces\, allowing the underlying surface of the work to show through. The skull that emerges is\, in a South African context\, evocative of the Cradle of Humankind—a series of caves outside Johannesburg\, where some of the oldest hominin fossils in the world have been found.\n \nThe work complements UMMA’s renowned and growing collection of historical and contemporary African art and reminds us of the central role of Africa in the history of humankind. The purchase was made possible thanks to the generosity of UMMA Director's Acquisition Committee.\n\nThis acquisition was made possible by the generosity of the UMMA Director's Acquisition Committee\, 2016.

SUMMARY:Presentation:Biopsychology Colloquium: Measuring motivations and emotions in children's and chimpanzees' social interactions using pupil diameter and posture tracking
DESCRIPTION:Studying the proximate mechanisms of social behaviour poses unique methodological and theoretical challenges. In a series of studies\, we used pupillometry to design experimental paradigms that allow us to investigate physiological changes in the context of both children’s and chimpanzees’ social interactions. We applied these methods to study the underlying motivation of both prosocial behaviour and so-called inequity aversion. In young children\, we have further included measures of positive emotions using motion sensor technology. Together\, our results suggest that while specific social behaviours\, such as helping\, are a cross-species phenomenon among Great Apes\, the underlying motivation may be distinctly different between humans and chimpanzees.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:EEB Tuesday Lunch Seminar: Imperiled plants of tropical rivers: Phylogeny\, biogeography\, and systematics of Podostemaceae
DESCRIPTION:Please join us for our weekly brown bag lunch seminar\n\nAbstract\nThe riverweed family (Podostemaceae) is the largest strictly aquatic family of flowering plants and provides important habitats and food sources for many fishes and aquatic invertebrates. Highly unusual for flowering plants\, species grow directly attached to rocks in river-rapids and waterfalls. Podostemaceae species exhibit high phenotypic plasticity and have highly modified growth forms\, both of which contribute to taxonomic confusion. Many of the estimated 300 riverweed species are narrowly distributed and incompletely known\, and evolutionary relationships within the family are uncertain. Unfortunately\, many species are of conservation concern and risk extinction due to the expansion of hydroelectric dams and massive reservoirs. This talk will detail the progress on a collaborative project to better understand the phylogeny\, biogeography\, and systematics of Podostemaceae. In particular\, we aim to better understand the biogeographical history of neotropical riverine organisms and the role that major river capture events during the Cenozoic have played in their distribution. The project includes significant fieldwork\, monographic work\, and an investigation of the structural organization of the family’s plastid genome. Finally\, we are also developing a new online resource designed to broadly disseminate information on the family as well as a new tool for the systematics community to more easily manage monographic data for publication.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:Lecture: Día de los Muertos and the Art of Fulgencio Lazo
DESCRIPTION:Fulgencio Lazo is a Zapotec/Mixtec artist based in Seattle and his hometown of Oaxaca\, Mexico. For more than 26 years he has been working with museums\, art centers and community groups to create “tapetes” or carpets of colored sand for Mexican Día de los Muertos (Day of the Dead) celebrations. These installations are collaboratively designed and installed with community members over the course of several days. Lazo has had more than 50 solo shows throughout the United States\, Mexico\, and Japan and is represented by galleries in Oaxaca\, Mexico City\, Monterrey and Valle de Bravo. In Seattle\, where he has lived since 1990\, he is most known for his tireless work to create programs and spaces that are inclusive and reflect diverse audiences. He has co-founded some of Seattle’s most iconic traditions within the Latino community\, including Seattle’s annual Oaxacan celebration known as Guelaguetza\, International Children’s Day\, and the Day of the Dead celebrations at many venues\, including the Seattle Art Museum. Most recently he co-founded Studio Lazo\, an organization of artists and community members creating a welcoming venue that especially showcases the creativity of Latino artists\, writers and musicians. \n\nLazo will lecture on ofrendas\, a Día de los Muertos tradition from Mexico\, and on his artwork which includes the installations of tapetes\, carpets of colored sand in bright compositions to honor the dead.\n\nFor the full description of Fulgencio's visiting artist visit to Ann Arbor\, see https://lsa.umich.edu/rc/news-events/all-news/search-news/rc-studio-art-program-and-the-ann-arbor-district-library-welcome.html

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:LRCCS Noon Lecture Series | A Whiff of Nirvana: On Why Chinese Buddhists Were Not Vegans
DESCRIPTION:Medieval Chinese Buddhists were some of the world's most strident animal rights activists. Monks and devout lay people swore off meat and wrote moving accounts about the suffering of animals. Yet the concern with animal welfare did not make vegans out of them. Monasteries kept loads of cream in their pantries and sheep on their lands. This talk explains why.\n   \nMiranda Brown is a Professor of Chinese Studies in the Dept. of Asian Languages and Cultures who has taught Chinese history at the University of Michigan since 2002. In old age\, she has discovered her true passion: Chinese food. She is now writing a book on the history of dairy in premodern China. In her free time\, she chronicles her efforts to re-imagine Chinese food with lots of milk in her blog (http://www.chinesefoodhistory.org) and on Twitter (@Dong_Muda).\n\nIf you are a person with a disability who requires an accommodation to attend this event\, please reach out to us at least 2 weeks in advance of this event.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:The Body as Puppet: What Cosplay does for Taiwanese Women
DESCRIPTION:In the twenty-first century\, the Japanese manga and anime industry has opened markets around the world. As manga and anime have spread\, so too has the fan practice of cosplay\, dressing up as animated characters. The vast majority of cosplayers around the world are women. In this paper\, I examine the practice of cosplay in Taiwan\, and in particular\, cosplayers who dress as characters from a unique Taiwanese genre of animation\, “digital video swordplay puppetry.” There is a continuum of how cosplayers think and talk about cosplay. Some cosplayers\, especially in North America\, see cosplaying as a kind of acting and say they want to “become the character.” Others\, especially in Asia\, see cosplay more in terms of bringing puppet characters to life\, (re)animating them. I argue that cosplay appeals primarily to women because it is a pleasurable play form of the kinds of work that they are expected to do at work and in their social lives. Cosplay allows women to experiment with different ways of blending embodied and disembodied\, performative and animating\, forms of affective labor.\n\nBook giveaway! We will hold a raffle for free copies of Dr. Silvio’s new book for anyone who arrives in costume (please no weapons). Cosplayers welcome!

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Physics & Astronomy Special Joint Colloquium | Sexual Harassment in STEM: A View from the  National Academies
DESCRIPTION:Persistent sexual harassment of women in science has remained a challenge for decades. It jeopardizes progress in closing the gender gap\, damages research integrity\, and results in a costly loss of talent. In 2016\, the National Academies of Sciences\, Engineering\, and Medicine assembled a committee to conduct a study on this problem. The committee published a comprehensive report in 2018 titled\, \"Sexual Harassment of Women: Climate\, Culture\, and Consequences in Academic Sciences\, Engineering\, and Medicine.\" The report identifies key findings on the causes and consequences of sexual harassment\, and lays out recommendations for institutional policies\, strategies\, and practices to address and prevent it. U-M Professors Lilia Cortina and Anna Kirkland were two members of that committee. In this talk they will review key findings from the report and discuss implications at the department level.\n\nPlease note: Should you require any accommodations to ensure equal access and opportunity related to this event please contact Stacy Tiburzi at 734-764-3440 or stibu@umich.edu.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:CM-AMO Seminar | Shedding New Light on Dirac Materials with Nonlinear Optics
DESCRIPTION:Nonlinear optics has recently emerged as an attractive approach for both probing topological properties and driving Dirac materials into new states. Here\, I will describe our use of ultrafast nonlinear optics\, especially at terahertz (THz) frequencies\, to study three representative Dirac materials: graphene micro-ribbons\, topological insulators\, and Weyl semimetals. We used THz magneto-optical spectroscopy to examine periodic arrays of graphene micro-ribbons\, enabling us to control the transmission and Faraday rotation spectra of THz pulses via coupling to discretized magnetoplasmon modes. In the Weyl semimetal TaAs\, time-resolved second harmonic generation enabled us to reveal a new photoinduced phase\, and THz emission spectroscopy was used to provide new insight into the circular photogalvanic effect. Finally\, we used intense THz pulses to drive and coherently control structural dynamics in the topological insulator Bi2Se3. Overall\, our studies demonstrate the utility of nonlinear optics in shedding new light on both static and dynamic properties of topological materials. \n\nBiography: Dr. Rohit P. Prasankumar received a B.S. in Electrical Engineering from the University of Texas at Austin in 1997 and the M.S. and Ph.D. degrees in Electrical Engineering from MIT in 1999 and 2003\, respectively. His thesis work\, completed in 2003\, concentrated on developing novel approaches for self-starting mode-locking in solid state lasers. Dr. Prasankumar subsequently performed his postdoctoral research at Los Alamos National Laboratory (LANL)\, focusing on ultrafast mid-to-far-infrared dynamics in semiconductor nanostructures and strongly correlated compounds. He has been a technical staff member at the Center for Integrated Nanotechnologies (CINT) at LANL since 2006\, with research interests principally directed towards the measurement of dynamics in complex materials\, such as multiferroics\, semiconductor nanowires\, and topological materials\, with high temporal and spatial resolution over a broad spectral range. He is also a research associate professor at the University of New Mexico.\n

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:GISC Interdisciplinary Islamic Studies Seminar Lecture. Art & Resistance: Palestinian Contemporary Art and Challenges Facing U.S. Exhibition
DESCRIPTION:How can art function as a means of political resistance? When does resistance against the exhibition of certain art function as a means of censorship? This talk attempts to address these questions through an examination of contemporary Palestinian art practices. Beginning with an introduction into the art practices of some contemporary Palestinian artists living both within historic Palestine and the diaspora\, I will discuss how these artists use their work to highlight and challenge the realities of life under persistent occupation\, as well as how their practices must adapt to a settler colonial context. Then\, turning towards a U.S. context\, I address the obstacles to exhibiting and discussing Palestinian art in the States in recent case studies. These difficulties manifest in museum exhibitions through an insistence on “fairness\,” “balance\,” and an insurance to tell the stories of “both sides” of the conflict when discussing Palestine and Israel. This formulation ignores the unequal balance of power inherent in Palestine (both historically and contemporarily)\, which has resulted in Palestinian artists withdrawing from exhibitions where they feel this imbalance is normalized.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:Mechanical Engineering Seminar Series
DESCRIPTION:Impacting Healthcare Costs with a University of Michigan innovation – FlexDex\n\nDr. Kent Bowden\, General Surgery\, Cadillac Hospital\, Munson Healthcare System\n\nAbstract\nDriven by minimally invasive procedures that require intensive suturing\, the adoption of robotics in general surgery has accelerated dramatically in spite of high costs and steep learning curve. While big hospitals are able to absorb the cost of owning and maintaining multi-million dollar DaVinci surgical robots and associated infrastructure\, small community hospitals face a difficult decision.\n\nIn this talk\, I will present this dilemma faced by Cadillac Hospital\, which serves the rural community of about 80\,000 residents in seven counties in northern Michigan. A few years ago\, we had to decide to either invest significant time\, money\, and personnel in creating and running a robotics program\, or lose our patients and surgeons to bigger hospitals and medical centers. This would be a loss for the\nlocal community\, economy\, and quality of living. Instead\, we looked for alternate options. There weren’t many but the most promising one seemed to be a technology from our own state – FlexDex – created at the University of Michigan.\n\nI will describe how I ended up adopting FlexDex and pioneering complex surgical procedures with it just as they would be performed on the DaVinci surgical robot but at much lower costs to the hospital. I have now performed over four hundred FlexDex procedures including hernia repair\, colon resection\, fundoplication\, and hysterectomy. The savings from this decision and the “notoriety” that this brought us has expanded our surgical efficiency as well as capabilities.\n\nFlexDex is now spreading all over the world and is being adopted in urology\, gynecology\, cardiothoracic\, bariatric\, and whipple procedures among others. I will discuss the future potential of this technology in providing greater access to minimally invasive surgery world-wide at an affordable cost. I will also discuss ongoing technology needs and challenges that remain in surgery that might\ninspire new research and innovation at universities.\n\nBio\nDr. Kent Bowden\, D.O. is a General Surgeon at Cadillac Hospital\, Munson Healthcare. He trained at the College of Osteopathic Medicine\, Michigan State University and graduated in 2005. He completed his Residency at Ingham Regional Medical Center in Lansing\, MI in 2010\, and joined private practice in a rural hospital where he could have a broad-spectrum practice. His objective as a surgeon is to\nprovide cost-effective\, personalized and world-class care to patients in his local community. In addition to pioneering cases with FlexDex\, he enjoys coaching basketball at his children's school and spending time outdoors with his family. Dr. Bowden is a Fellow of the American College of Osteopathic Surgeons (FACOS).

SUMMARY:Other:Synthesis and Reactivity of a Terminal Co Oxo Complex
DESCRIPTION:Transition metal oxo complexes\, particularly those of later transition metals\, have been cited as important intermediates in processes such as C-H hydroxylation and oxygen evolution. In general\, however\, these species are highly reactive and difficult to isolate and study. In this talk I will present our laboratories efforts at isolating and studying late transition metal oxo complexes. We have found that use of pseudo-tetrahedral geometries enables the isolation of an unusual terminal Co-oxo complex. The reactivity of this species towards C-H activation is markedly different than that observed for the majority of other systems and provides experimental evidence for a new mechanistic scenario dubbed \"asynchronous\" CPET. Finally\, the possible relevance of related Co and Ni complexes in this system towards O-O bond formation will be discussed.\nJohn Anderson (University of Chicago)

SUMMARY:Performance:Tannahill Weavers // Old Blind Dogs
DESCRIPTION:Scotland's Tannahill Weavers recently celebrated their 50th year on the road\, and they're not slowing down! Named for Scottish poet Robert Tannahill\, the Tannahill Weavers create music that is steeped in history yet brings the Scottish musical tradition forward into the present day. With innovative arrangements blending the beauty of traditional melodies with the power of modern rhythms\, the group embraces the rollicking\, even brawling qualities of Lowland Anglo-Scots tunes but never loses sight of the almost mystical Highland Celtic core. \"The penetrating sound of the Highland bagpipes is a thread of ancient memory running through it all\,\" they say. The band's diverse repertoire spans the centuries with fiery instrumentals\, topical songs\, and original ballads. They're an Ark favorite\, but tonight you have the chance to see them with an act that's a good deal rarer stateside—The Old Blind Dogs. Since forming in Scotland in 1992\, The Dogs have stood on the cutting edge of the Scots roots revival. The band has developed its own trademark style with an energetic mix of songs and tunes. Dynamic percussion\, polished vocals\, soaring fiddle and stirring pipes fuel the delicately phrased melodies and traditional songs. \"The Old Blind Dogs play with a compelling energy and intoxicating rhythm\,\" says The Scotsman\, \"...as players and audience seem to share a wild ecstasy of emotion.\" Twenty-seven years is a long time in the life of any band and most who reach those milestones are content to rest on the tried and tested formulas that have worked in the past. Not so for The  Old Blind Dogs\, whose newly released \"Room With A View\" takes them once again bravely in many new directions.

SUMMARY:Film Screening:GISC Screening. Halaloween: A Girl Walks Home Alone At Night
DESCRIPTION:On October 1st\, 2019\, A Girl Walks Home Alone At Night will be the first film to launch our Muslim Horror Film Festival: Halaloween. \n    \nThis film festival aims to explore a couple of questions: What scares Muslim audiences? How do horror movies conceived for a Muslim public transform the familiar tropes that Hollywood and Hammer horror taught us? How do Muslim directors of horror movies use the genre to ask probing questions about gender and family tensions\, social injustice and political oppression\, demographic change and social unrest? Are horror movies halal (permissible in Islamic law)? Why so many jinn - and where are the Muslim zombies? \n    \nJoin us at 9:00 PM at the Michigan Theater on October 1st\, and every Tuesday of October for a free screening of a Muslim horror film. All Screenings are free\, open to the public\, and will include English subtitles. Screenings are first come-first served. For more information on our festival\, why we're running it\, and the other films we are screening\, please visit: ii.umich.edu/islamicstudies/news-events/events/films.html \n\nFilm Description: \n    \nOctober 1: A Girl Walks Home Alone at Night (dir. Ana Lily Amirpour\; USA\, 2015): This film festival favorite was shot in Persian in the San Joaquin Valley\, in brooding and beautiful black & white. It is often (accurately) described as a Western-vampire-noir. Gender revenge themes and mild violence. In Persian with English subtitles.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Circulating the Avant-Garde: Aesthetic Counter-Publics in the Little Magazines\, 1890-1920
DESCRIPTION:Thanks to advances in color lithography and photo-engraving as well as resurgent interest in small-press publishing\, richly illustrated and typeset “little magazines” flourished between 1890 and 1920. The materials collected in this exhibit\, all held in the Special Collections Research Center\, showcase not only the variety\, beauty\, and originality of turn-of-the-century print-making\, but also new ideas about what a magazine can do: namely\, create distinctive communities around avant-garde ideas outside of mainstream channels. The communities imagined in these magazines are sometimes explicitly political or aesthetic\, but more often both combine in writers’ and artists’ resistance to mass-market\, industrial\, bourgeois\, and nationalist print cultures.\n\nThe magazines in this exhibit are mostly American and British\, but many are distinctively cosmopolitan\, crossing borders to engage with international movements like socialism\, decadence\, and modernism in their attempts to create an audience united by aesthetic and political ideals rather than nationality. Although the little magazines’ resistance to mainstream journalism shortened their lifespan and restricted their circulation\, their experimental approach has had a lasting impact on our sense of magazines as flexible aesthetic and social media.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Civitates Orbis Terrarum: Braun & Hogenberg’s Evolving World
DESCRIPTION:Civitates Orbis Terrarum (Cities of the World)\, the first standardized city atlas\, contains over 540 maps and views between its six volumes. First published in 1572 by Georg Braun (1541-1622) and Frans Hogenberg (1535-1590)\, Civitates was first intended as a companion to Ortelius’s Theatrum Orbis Terrarum. New editions of the city atlas continued to be printed through 1617. Hogenberg\, one of the most prolific engravers of the time\, was joined by many other engravers in creating the Civitates. Braun edited the work and provided the descriptions of the cities on the verso of each plate. This exhibit contains 18 works from the Civitates\, including many from the Clark Library’s holdings. Also included are reproductions of large panoramas Amsterdam\, London\, and St. Petersburg that reflect the evolution of city mapping through the 17th and 18th centuries.

The pieces are constructed by gluing many layers of paper over wire armatures. When dry\, the sculptures are painted in an often splashy\, sketchy style. Wirtz’ silly animal works are what the artist is best known for\, and they take shape in his Goetzville\, Michigan studio.\n\nGifts of Art Gallery – University Hospital Main Corridor\, Floor 2\n1500 E.

The undulating forms\, such as water ripples\, oil slicks\, and refuse\, combined with the memories that water evokes\, makes her work eye-opening\, yet soothing and sensual. \n\nGifts of Art Gallery – University Hospital Main Lobby\, Floor 1                                                                       \n1500 E.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Ваза: Copper & Brass Vessels
DESCRIPTION:Victoria (Vika) Bulgakova grew up in Ukraine\, a part of the former Soviet Union. She immigrated to the U.S. in 1994\, and for the next 22 years\, New York became her home. In 2016\, she moved to Michigan to pursue an MFA at Cranbrook Academy of Art. She found the raw beauty of Detroit inspiring and kept her metalsmithing studio practice in the city. The copper and brass vessels in her Ваза series and other included works are a meditation on fluidity of memories: their ability to shift from reflection to re-invention over time. Each vessel potentially holds something within its boundaries\, whether tangible or not. \n\nGifts of Art Gallery – Taubman Health Center North Lobby\, Floor 1\n1500 E.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Exhibition | Graffiti as Devotion along the Nile: El-Kurru\, Sudan
DESCRIPTION:Ancient graffiti provide a unique glimpse into the lives of individuals in antiquity. Religious devotion in ancient Kush (a region located in modern-day northern Sudan)\, involved pilgrimage and leaving informal marks on temples\, pyramids\, and other monumental structures. These graffiti are found in temples throughout the later (“Meroitic”) period of Kush\, when it bordered Roman Egypt. They represent one of the few direct traces of the devotional practices of private people in Kush and hint at individuals’ thoughts\, values\, and daily lives. This exhibition explores the times and places in which Kushite graffiti were inscribed through photos\, text\, and interactive media presentations. At the heart of the show are the hundreds of Meroitic graffiti recently discovered in a rock-cut temple by the Kelsey expedition to El-Kurru in northern Sudan.\n\nCurators: Geoff Emberling and Suzanne Davis\n\nView the online exhibition:\nhttp://exhibitions.kelsey.lsa.umich.edu/graffiti-el-kurru/

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Other Crusoes\, Other Islands: Mapping a Complex Legacy
DESCRIPTION:On the 300th anniversary of the publication of The Life and Surprising Adventures of Robinson Crusoe\, of York\, Mariner\, this exhibit interrogates the troubled legacy of Daniel Defoe’s seminal English novel. It also explores how creators have pushed back against the colonialist\, hyper-masculine\, and racist ethos of the text by using the castaway narrative to explore self-sufficiency\, otherness\, and the role of gendered and racialized ideas in constructing the self.\n\nThis novel of shipwreck\, survival\, and rescue has become a cultural touchstone. Today\, many people who haven’t read the novel still feel familiar with key plot elements\, Robinson Crusoe\, and Friday. Yet\, there is less familiarity with how both the original text and many of the adaptations of Robinson Crusoe have fed into and reinforced narratives of imperialism and racism. Drawing on the Hubbard Collection of Imaginary Voyages - one of the world’s most comprehensive collections of editions\, translations\, adaptations\, and spin-offs of Robinson Crusoe - Other Crusoes\, Other Islands seeks to understand how readers and writers have engaged with the story since its initial publication in 1719.\n\nContent Advisory: Please be aware that some items in this exhibit feature racist imagery and potentially painful content. Although Robinson Crusoe is often treated as children’s literature and this exhibit includes children’s books and board games\, it is not an exhibit geared towards children and reflects the significant shifts over time in ideas about what is appropriate for children.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Yo Tengo Nombre
DESCRIPTION:This series of paintings was inspired by the Trump administration’s “zero tolerance” immigration policy and the images of migrant families being separated and detained at the US-Mexico border that dominated media outlets across the nation since the summer of 2017. The exhibition also includes nearly 100 I.D. photos of migrant children from a Texas holding center. Buentello took the photos  in 2014 while working for an intake agency.\n\n\"Focusing on images from the US media sources that exposed the violence of migrants’ dehumanization\, vulnerability\, fear\, loss\, and criminalization\, the paintings document the embodiment of state-authorized brutality and erasures of personhood.\" -Ruth Leonela Buentello\n\nThis project is funded by a grant from the Efroymson Family Fund.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Nature a Moment: Visions of the World from Three Korean-American Artists
DESCRIPTION:Three Chicago-area Korean-American artists render deeply personal interpretations of the natural world in the exhibit “Nature a Moment” at Matthaei Botanical Gardens. Using woodcut\, painting on canvas\, and mixed media\, Linda Hyong\, Sung Eun Hong\, and Seong Ok Lee explore the world of flowers\, gardens\, and nature in vivid works that slow time to a fleeting present moment.\n\nLinda Hyong is a University of Michigan alumna and former teaching assistant in the U-M Stamps School of Art & Design. She draws her inspiration from Claude Monet’s water lily garden in France to create her own modern interpretation of impressionism. Seong Ok Lee is inspired by flowers\, which she believes are the most beautiful forms in nature. In her dream-like\, nearly abstract paintings\, Sung Eun Hong communicates her vision of what she calls “pure dreams and fantasy.”\n\nExhibit runs September 14 through November 15\, 2019 at the\n\nUniversity of Michigan Matthaei Botanical Gardens\, 1800 N. Dixboro Rd.\, Ann Arbor. Free.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Strengths of Refugees and Their Community
DESCRIPTION:Refugees have been at the forefront of political discussion in the United States as the Syrian crisis escalates and xenophobia heightens. Much has been said regarding these refugees\, but all too often the voices of refugees themselves are left out of the conversation.\n\nThis exhibit uses the data collected from a Photovoice project\, combining photography and transcriptions from groups discussions with adolescent refugees to better understand the lived experiences of adolescent refugees. The gallery highlights five main themes that were discussed: Stability and Security\, Interpersonal Difficulties\, Rooting Factors\, Personal Growth\, and Contribution.\n\n“I wish I could help out people… Imma give them everything. Because they are my people\, I have to save my people.” -Alex

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Abstraction\, Color\, and Politics in the Early 1970s
DESCRIPTION:Can abstract art be about politics? In the early 1970s\, that question was hotly debated as artists\, critics\, and the public grappled with the relationship between art\, politics\, race\, and feminism. Many of those debates centered on bringing to light the roles that gender and race played in how “great modern art” was defined and assessed\, and on employing art to advance civil rights. Within this discourse\, abstraction had an especially fraught role. To many\, the decision by women artists and artists of color  to make abstract art seemed to represent a retreat from politics and protest: an abnegation of a commitment to civil rights and feminism. Abstraction\, Color\, and Politics in the Early 1970s presents large-scale work by four leading American artists—Helen Frankenthaler\, Sam Gilliam\, Al Loving\, and Louise Nevelson—who chose abstraction as a means of expression within the intense political climate of the early 1970s.\n\nUMMA gratefully acknowledges the following donors for their generous support of this exhibition:\n\nLead Exhibition Sponsors: University of Michigan Office of the Provost\, Michigan Medicine\, and College of Literature\, Science\, and the Arts\n\nExhibition Endowment Donors:  Richard and Rosann Noel Endowment Fund\, Herbert W. and Susan L. Johe Endowment\, and Robert and Janet Miller Fund\n\nUniversity of Michigan Funding Partners: Institute for Research on Women and Gender\, School of Social Work\, Department of Political Science\, and Department of Women's Studies

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Abstraction\, Color\, and Politics:
DESCRIPTION:In the midst of the political and cultural upheavals of the 60s and 70s\, artists\, critics\, and the public grappled with the relationship between art\, politics\, race\, and feminism. During these decades\, the notion that abstraction was a purely formal and American art form\, concerned only with timeless themes disconnected from the present\, was met with increased skepticism. Women artists and artists of color began to actively and assertively explore abstraction’s possibilities. The artworks in Abstraction\, Color\, and Politics: The 1960s and 1970s demonstrate both radical and disarming changes in how artists worked and what they thought their art was about. Their new formal and intellectual strategies—seen here across large-scale and miniature work—dramatically transformed the practice of abstraction in the 1960s and 1970s in a politically shifting American landscape.\n\nUMMA gratefully acknowledges the following donors for their generous support:\n\nLead Exhibition Sponsors: University of Michigan Office of the Provost\, Michigan Medicine\, and College of Literature\, Science\, and the Arts\n\nExhibition Endowment Donors:  Richard and Rosann Noel Endowment Fund\, Herbert W. and Susan L. Johe Endowment\, and Robert and Janet Miller Fund\n\nUniversity of Michigan Funding Partners: Institute for Research on Women and Gender\, School of Social Work\, Department of Political Science\, and Department of Women's Studies

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Border Control: Traversing Horizons in Media Practice
DESCRIPTION:In September 2019\, the University of Michigan Penny W. Stamps School of Art & Design will host the New Media Caucus 2019 Symposium and Exhibition\, Border Control.  Symposium and exhibition events will take place in Ann Arbor at the Stamps School of Art and Design (2000 Bonisteel Blvd.) and Stamps Gallery (201 S. Division St.).\n\nExhibition Dates: September 20 - November 10\, 2019\nSymposium Dates: September 19 - 22\, 2019\nGuest Curator: Allison Collins\, Media Arts Curator\, Western Front\n\nCurated by Allison Collins in collaboration with Carrie Edinger and Srimoyee Mitra.\nIn partnership with the New Media Caucus \n\nHuman migration is a defining issue of the 21st century\, often calling into question the relevance\, role\, and responsibilities of national borders across the globe. As individuals seek refuge from geopolitical and environmental forces\, we become an increasingly globalized community. Demarcations of all types are simultaneously porous and closed\, defensive and receptive\, and seen in almost every facet of our existence. Border Control responds to these conditions with an open-ended question\, asking: “How has humanity made sense of the world in relation to borders and boundaries\, both physically and psychologically?” While positioned within (or outside of) defined spaces and identities\, human refusal of such literal definitions is paramount. Even while lines drawn have important consequences for lived reality\, the winds\, currents\, and natural energies of the Earth deny enclosures and definitions that politics and maps might suggest.\n\nDrawn from practices that are touched or driven by new media\, Border Control assembles works by artists who consider geographical contexts\, patterns of migration\, displacement\, and statelessness. Collectively\, they offer projects with subterfuge\, refusal\, and reconsideration of imposed state-sanctioned boundaries.\n\n \n\n

DESCRIPTION:Far from being frowned upon as uncreative\, in China\, Korea\, and Japan\, copying has long been considered a valuable practice. Through works of art spanning ancient to contemporary times\, Copies and Invention in East Asia challenges our understanding of originality\, and presents copying as an act of imaginative interpretation. The exhibition includes burial goods that conjure a world for the deceased\; Buddhist sculptures produced in multiples to amplify religious experience and meaning\; paintings in which a master’s brushstrokes are faithfully duplicated as a way of shaping the self\; and contemporary works that address multiplicity and duplication in the modern world.\n\nLead support is provided by the University of Michigan Office of the Provost\, Michigan Medicine\, Lieberthal-Rogel Center for Chinese Studies\, Center for Japanese Studies\, Nam Center for Korean Studies\, School of Information\, and College of Engineering. Additional generous support is provided by the University of Michigan Fabrication Studio at the Duderstadt Center\, the Department of Asian Languages and Cultures\, and SeeMeCNC 3D Printers.

Drawing inspiration from his country’s basketry traditions\, the South African artist Walter Oltmann (b. 1960) alternates densely layered sections with open spaces\, allowing the underlying surface of the work to show through. The skull that emerges is\, in a South African context\, evocative of the Cradle of Humankind—a series of caves outside Johannesburg\, where some of the oldest hominin fossils in the world have been found.\n \nThe work complements UMMA’s renowned and growing collection of historical and contemporary African art and reminds us of the central role of Africa in the history of humankind. The purchase was made possible thanks to the generosity of UMMA Director's Acquisition Committee.\n\nThis acquisition was made possible by the generosity of the UMMA Director's Acquisition Committee\, 2016.

SUMMARY:Class / Instruction:Gerrymandering
DESCRIPTION:Now that it’s clear that efforts to deal with gerrymandering cannot be litigated in federal court\, the question is whether state independent redistricting commissions are the best approach to the problem. Another approach would be to adopt a state-wide list system of proportional representation\, as described in Bob Davidow’s recent article in the Wayne Law Review. With a state-wide system\, there would be no district line to draw -- hence no gerrymandering. The proposed system would not only reduce the amount of money needed for election\, but also reduce the influence of the wealthy and well-connected. Demographic changes would not affect the operation of the system. An independent redistricting commission would do none of these things. \n\nThis course for those 50 and over will be led by Instructor Bob Davidow\, Professor of Law (retired) from George Mason University. He is the author of Response to Gerrymandering.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:HET Brown Bag Seminars | Massive Gravitons in Curved Spacetimes
DESCRIPTION:This talk will cover various interesting topics that occur in massive spin-2 on various spacetimes including de Sitter\, anti-de Sitter\, and flat space. In de Sitter\, we examine what happens to massive gravity as its mass approaches the partially massless value. In this limit\, if the interactions are chosen to be precisely those of the 'candidate' non-linear partially massless theory\, the strong coupling scale is raised\, giving the theory a wider range of applicability. In anti-de Sitter and flat spacetime\, we show how shift symmetries acting on the vector modes emerge from massive spin-2 theories fixing the non-linear structure and discuss whether these theories have amplitudes that can be constructed via soft substracted recursion.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Michigan Program in Survey Methodology and the Joint Program in Survey Methodology Seminar Series
DESCRIPTION:Switching away from web surveys: what can we learn from JavaScript \"OnBlur\" functions about response behavior?\n\nThe increase in web surveys allows researchers to collect a variety of paradata alongside traditional survey responses. Some paradata\, such as response times\, enjoy a long tradition in survey research\, but others\, such as window/tab switching\, are only rarely used in survey research. In this talk\, I focus on the usefulness and usability of JavaScript \"OnBlur\" functions informing about how often and for how long respondents switch away from web surveys. For this purpose\, I present the results of two empirical studies: the first study explores the impact of on-device multitasking\, such as switching away to check social media notifications\, on response behavior. The second study\, in contrast\, focuses on the consequences of looking up answers online for measuring political knowledge. The talk ends with a discussion of further fields of application for JavaScript \"OnBlur\" functions in survey research.

SUMMARY:Presentation:Social Area Brown Bag Talk - The devils we know and love: How relationships bias moral reasoning
DESCRIPTION:Consider the following scenario—you witness your friend steal a TV and are approached by a police officer asking whether you saw anything. How would you respond? Would you protect or condemn your friend? What makes dilemmas like these so vexing is that they pit two fundamental drives against one another: protecting those we love versus abiding by universal rules. Here we demonstrate that when people are presented with scenarios forcing them to decide whether to protect or condemn the perpetrators of crimes\, they demonstrate an extremely strong bias to protect close (vs. distant) others\, and the size the of this effect increases along with the severity of the crime they observe. Moreover\, using event-related potentials (ERPs) we show that the amplitude of the P300\, an early neural component occurring around 300ms that is sensitive to expectancy violations\, was greater when people thought about close (vs. distant) others committing crimes and predicted people’s decisions to protect versus condemn perpetrators’ behaviors. However\, we show that the behavioral bias toward close others is attenuated by a brief self-distancing manipulation. Preliminary cross-cultural work shows that the bias is also present but attenuated among a Japanese sample\, suggesting that cultural factors may modulate the balance between loyalty and justice. These findings underscore the importance of studying the role of close relationships in moral reasoning.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:PhD Defense: Dominique Smith
DESCRIPTION:Spinal cord injury (SCI) causes paralysis below the level of injury which\, at the cellular level\, results from neuron and oligodendrocyte cell death\, axonal loss\, demyelination\, and critically\, the limited capacity of spinal cord neurons to regenerate. Although central nervous system (CNS) tissue has the innate capacity to repair the local environment that develops after SCI lacks sufficient factors that promote regeneration and has an abundance of factors that inhibit regeneration. Many strategies have been attempted to aid in the regeneration of CNS tissue\, yet re-entry into intact spared tissue remains inadequately low. This is due to the complexity of the spinal cord microenvironment post injury and the barriers that must be addressed to elicit adequate regeneration. The Shea lab has developed multi-channel poly (lactide-co-glycolide) (PLG) bridges to promote spinal cord regeneration and restore functional losses. These bridges are biodegradable and provide a temporary structure that promotes regeneration for between 2 and 6 months post-implantation. The bridges have an interconnected pore structure\, that allows infiltration of endogenous cell populations\, including macrophages\, Schwann cells\, oligodendrocytes. Additionally\, the bridge mechanically stabilizes the injury with tissue ingrowth and reduces secondary injury and axonal dieback. Longitudinal channels encourage axons to regenerate into the bridge with cells aligned along this major axis. Both motor and sensory axons have been identified in bridge channels. These bridges also serve as a platform for delivery of therapeutics including drugs\, cells\, and notably lentivirus.\n \nThis dissertation investigated the use of lentiviral gene therapy from multi-channel bridges to barriers to regeneration during acute and chronic phases of SCI. We investigated myelination of regenerating axons by over-expression of platelet-derived growth factor-AA (PDGF) and noggin either alone or in combination in an acute mouse SCI model.  The combination of noggin + PDGF enhanced total myelination of regenerating axons relative to either factor alone and importantly\, enhanced functional recovery relative to the control condition. The increase in myelination was consistent with an increase in oligodendrocyte-derived myelin\, which was also associated with a greater density of cells of an oligodendroglial lineage relative to each factor individually and control conditions. We investigated synergistic effects of anti-inflammatory and regenerative factors by bi-cistronic delivery of NT-3 and IL-10 using PLG bridges after acute SCI. The combination of IL-10+NT-3 enhanced axonal growth and oligodendrocyte myelinated axon density significantly over control This resulted in increased locomotor functional recovery compared to IL-10 or NT-3 alone but increased hypersensitivity compared to IL-10 alone. Furthermore\, we observed a strong positive correlation between oligodendrocyte myelinated axon density and functional recovery. Lastly\, we investigated regeneration using the multi-channel bridge implanted into a chronic SCI following surgical resection of necrotic tissue. We characterized the dynamic injury response and noted that scar formation decreased at 4 and 8 weeks post injury (wpi)\, yet macrophage infiltration increased between 4 and 8 wpi. Subsequently\, scar tissue was resected and bridges were implanted at 4 and 8 wpi. We observed robust axon growth into the bridge and remyelination at 6 months post initial injury. Axon densities were increased for 8 week bridge implantation relative to 4 week bridge implantation\, whereas greater myelination\, particularly by Schwann cells\, was observed with 4 week bridge implantation. Taken together\, these results show the bridges as a great tool to manipulate and investigate the spinal cord microenvironment to improve functional outcomes.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:MIPSE Seminar | Plasma Diagnostics Package for Studying High-Power Hall Thrusters in Flight
DESCRIPTION:Abstract:\nNASA is preparing to demonstrate high-power electric propulsion on the Power and Propulsion Element (PPE)\, the first element of a human-operated Gateway station that will orbit the Moon. The Hall thrusters (HTs) being flown on the PPE will operate at three times the power of current state-of-the-art HTs and utilize magnetic shielding\, which greatly increase the wear life of the thrusters. Associated with these advances in technical capability are uncertainties regarding the plasma properties of the exhaust plume\, particularly the low density plume exiting sideways from the thrusters. To better predict the erosive power of the plasma plume and how the plume might interact with the PPE and future spacecraft\, NASA is flying the Plasma Diagnostics Package (PDP). The PDP data will refine plasma models for predicting the behavior of high-power HT systems on future missions. This presentation will describe a brief history of the PDP project\, basic Hall thruster plume physics\, the plasma physics behind the PDP sensor design\, and current status of the PDP project.\n\nAbout the Speaker: \nWensheng Huang received a PhD in Aerospace Engineering from the University of Michigan in 2011 and BS degrees in Mechanical and Nuclear Engineering from the University of California\, Berkeley in 2006. His dissertation was on the use of optical diagnostics to study Hall thruster erosion under the tutelage of Prof. Alec D. Gallimore. Wensheng is currently a researcher in the Electric Propulsion Systems branch at the NASA Glenn Research Center. He is the Principle Investigator for the Plasma Diagnostics Package (PDP) that will be flying on the Power and Propulsion Element (PPE)\, the first element of NASA's Moon-orbiting Gateway. He is also the diagnostics lead for the Solar Electric Propulsion Hall thruster project\, which will also be flying on the PPE.\n\nThe seminar will be web-simulcast.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:CANCELLED - Situating Vernacular Turkish Sufism in Islamizing Anatolia (14th & 15th Centuries)
DESCRIPTION:In this talk\, I explore the attitudes of three prominent Turkish-speaking saintly figures of the 14th and 15th centuries towards Muslim religious scholars and other members of the learned elite\, including “respectable” Sufis\, who often owed their elite status to their proficiency in Arabic and/or Persian. The Turkish language works of Yunus Emre\, Kaygusuz Abdal and the hagiography of Otman Baba allows us to situate saintly figures who functioned in the Turkish vernacular into the larger historical context of Islamic cultural history of Anatolia. In the process\, I identify and describe in broad strokes the fault lines that ran between saintly figures/Sufis who expressed themselves primarily\, even exclusively\, in the Turkish vernacular and other Sufi and non-Sufi Muslim learned elites who foregrounded their expertise in Arabic and Persian instead\, even when they composed their works in Turkish.\n\nAhmet T. Karamustafa is Professor of History at the University of Maryland\, College Park. His expertise is in the social and intellectual history of Sufism in particular and Islamic piety in general from the tenth through the fifteenth century. His publications include God’s Unruly Friends(University of Utah Press\, 1994) and Sufism: The Formative Period (Edinburgh University Press & University of California Press\, 2007). He is currently working on a book project titled Vernacular Islam: Everyday Muslim Religious Life in Medieval Anatolia (co-authored with Cemal Kafadar) as well as a monograph on the history of early medieval Sufism titled The Flowering of Sufism.\n\nThere is both an accessible elevator and gender-neutral restroom on the first and second floor of the building. If you have a disability that requires an accommodation\, contact the Department of Middle East Studies at mlbthayerevents@umich.edu or 734-763-4465.

SUMMARY:Conference / Symposium:Central Bank of the Future Conference
DESCRIPTION:Traditionally\, central banks have served three policy functions – monetary policy\, payments systems oversight\, and financial institution supervision. This conference will convene international experts and practitioners to examine how these core functions contribute to financial inclusion\, poverty allevation\, and a more inclusive economy – and what could be improved.\n\nThe conference contributes to a research initiative undertaken by the University of Michigan’s Center on Finance\, Law & Policy\, in partnership with the Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation to consider how the role of a central bank could evolve in the future and enable central banks to make greater contributions toward financial inclusion. Ultimately\, the research intends to identify technologies\, processes\, or tools that could benefit a central bank in supporting public policy objectives related to inclusion\, and consider whether other sectors\, including philanthropy\, might have a role to play in supporting the development of those tools. \n\nRegistration to the event is free. Speakers and attendees will include individuals from  standards-setting bodies\, central banks and other financial regulators\, and policymakers\, as well as futurists and technologists\, and other financial ecosystem stakeholders.\n\nFor more information visit http://financelawpolicy.umich.edu/central-bank-of-the-future-conference

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:DAAS Diasporic Dialogues with Angel David Nieves (San Diego State University)
DESCRIPTION:Digital and interactive forms of scholarship challenge established practices in the Arts & Humanities. Audiovisual content\, graphic interfaces\, and different types of visualizations employed in new forms of presentation and publication (e.g. websites\, blogs\, online databases\, 3D worlds) do not conform with existing concepts of scholarship\, and established practices of evaluation. Bringing together 3D model making (scholarship more generally) and the work of digital scholarly editions (DSE) is in fact new\, and not a series of scholarly theories and practices that have been previously deployed in the digital humanities. Although these digital vehicles powerfully disseminate and engage with scholarship\, scholars who implement these ‘new’ modalities are confronted by “the same old\,” established mechanisms with which to gauge ‘impact’ among one’s scholarly peers\, i.e. within traditional and long-established publications. Interactive 3D visualization\, despite its long tradition in humanities research\, is still faced with skepticism and hesitation\, not only because of the constant technological shifts and exigencies and the fragile ecosystem within which projects are being developed\, but also due to their non-conventional nature that does not adhere to established “norms” and metrics. Nieves will discuss the challenges of doing social justice based work\, in digital humanities\, while also providing new methods and platforms for dissemination in the Global South. He is currently working on a digital book project entitled\, Apartheid Heritages: A Spatial History of South Africa’s Township’s (www.apartheidheritages.org)\, now under consideration at Stanford University Press as part of their Mellon Foundation-funded digital publishing initiatives.  \n\n\nBio\n\nAngel David Nieves\, Ph.D. is Professor of History & Digital Humanities (in the Area of Excellence in Digital Humanities and Global Diversity) at San Diego State University (SDSU) and Co-Director of their Digital Humanities Initiative (DHI). He was\, most recently\, (2017-2018) Presidential Visiting Associate Professor at Yale University in the Women’s\, Gender\, and Sexuality Studies Program and an affiliate in the Yale Digital Humanities Laboratory (DHLab). He is Research Associate Professor in the Department of History at the University of the Witwatersrand\, Johannesburg\, South Africa.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Department Colloquium | Towards a Better Understanding of the Electroweak Symmetry Breaking Mechanism
DESCRIPTION:In the Standard Model of particle physics\, the massless Goldstone bosons resulting from spontaneous symmetry breaking of the Higgs field became longitudinal components of the W and Z bosons and thus make these vector bosons massive. It is critical to study longitudinal-longitudinal scattering of W and Z bosons at the LHC to validate this electroweak symmetry breaking mechanism and to search for other alternative mechanisms. I will present a few studies that are related to vector boson scattering using data collected by the ATLAS detector. In addition\, I will discuss Phase-I and Phase-II upgrade activities of the ATLAS muon spectrometer that my research group has been involved in. \n

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:Positive Links Speaker Series
DESCRIPTION:Positive Links Speaker Series\nLabor of Love: Lessons in Keeping Creativity Alive\nTeresa M. Amabile\n\nWednesday\, October 2\, 2019\n4:00-5:00 p.m.\nFree and open to the public.\n\nRegister here: http://myumi.ch/Boomq\n\nMichigan Ross Campus\nRoss Building\n701 Tappan \nRobertson Auditorium\nAnn Arbor\, MI 48109-1234\n\nPositive Links:\nThe Positive Links Speaker Series\, presented by Michigan Ross’ Center for Positive Organizations\, offers inspiring and practical research-based strategies for building organizations that are high performing and bring out the best in its people. Attendees learn from leading positive organizational scholars and connect with our community of academics\, students\, staff\, and leaders.\n\nPositive Links sessions take place at Michigan Ross\, and are free and open to the public.\n\nAbout the talk:\nCreativity is responsible for all human progress. Unfortunately\, powerful forces in most classroom\, workplace\, and home environments can kill the motivation for creativity. In this interactive session\, Harvard Professor Teresa Amabile will describe the science underlying these discoveries\, as well as the science behind keeping creativity alive. The audience will leave with tips and tools for nurturing their own creativity and facilitating creative growth in their children\, students\, and work colleagues.\n\nAbout Amabile:\nTeresa Amabile has researched and written about creativity for over 40 years. Beginning with a series of papers in the 1970s and 1980s\, she was instrumental in establishing the social psychology of creativity – the study of how the social environment can influence creative behavior\, primarily by influencing motivational state. \n\nAmabile’s research has examined individual creativity and productivity\, team creativity\, and organizational innovation. This program of research has yielded a comprehensive theory of creativity and innovation\; methods for assessing creativity\, motivation\, and the work environment\; and a set of prescriptions for maintaining and stimulating both individual creativity and organizational innovation. \n\nHer more recent research investigated how everyday life inside organizations can influence people and their performance by affecting inner work life\, the confluence of motivation\, emotion\, and perceptions. She is currently studying retirement and post-employment life\, including the impact of creative activities on attitudes toward aging and experiences in later life.\n\nAmabile’s scholarly work has appeared in a variety of psychology and organizational behavior journals\, as well as her 2011 book (with Steven Kramer)\, The Progress Principle: Using Small Wins to Ignite Joy\, Engagement\, and Creativity at Work. She has presented her work to audiences in a variety of settings\, including Pixar\, Genentech\, TEDx Atlanta\, Apple\, and The World Economic Forum in Davos. \n\nIn 2018\, Amabile received the Lifetime Achievement Award from the Organizational Behavior Division of the Academy of Management\, the Lifetime Achievement Award at the Israel Organizational Behavior Conference\, and the Distinguished Scholar Award from the Society for Personality and Social Psychology. In 2011 and 2013\, she was named to the global Thinkers50 list.  \n\nAmabile holds a BS in Chemistry from Canisius College and a PhD in psychology from Stanford University.\n\nHost: \nJulia Lee\, Assistant Professor of Management and Organizations\n\nSponsors:\nThe Center for Positive Organizations thanks University of Michigan Organizational Learning\, Sanger Leadership Center\, Tauber Institute for Global Operations\, Samuel Zell & Robert H. Lurie Institute for Entrepreneurial Studies\, Lisa and David (MBA ‘87) Drews\, and Diane (BA ‘73) and Paul (MBA ‘75) Jones for their support of the 2019-20 Positive Links Speaker Series.

DESCRIPTION:Abstract:  Dr. Haendel’s vision is to weave together healthcare systems\, basic science research\, and patient generated data through development of data integration technologies and innovative data capture strategies.  The Monarch Initiative is an international consortium dedicated to integrating human and organismal genotype-phenotype data and the development of deep phenotyping techniques.  This talk will focus on the use of ontologies to support knowledge and data integration across disciplinary boundaries.  Strategies for how to reconcile different terminologies and examples of harmonized semantic structures for anatomy\, phenotype\, and disease will be discussed.  Finally\, we will discuss the use of these ontological resources to populate graph structures and their use to aid mechanism discovery and rare disease diagnosis.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:WCED Panel. Brazil under Bolsonaro: What Is Emerging? What Is Submerging?
DESCRIPTION:Moderator: Robert Jansen\, associate professor of sociology\, U-M. Presenters: Guilherme Casarões\, lecturer in international relations\, Fundação Getúlio Vargas São Paulo Business School (FGV EAESP)\; Marília Corrêa\, WCED Postdoctoral Fellow\, U-M\; Benjamin Lessing\, assistant professor of political science\, University of Chicago.\n\nBrazil’s president Jair Bolsonaro became notable to the public as a controversial right-wing congressman. His brash criticism of left-wing politicians\, praise of military dictatorship\, support of pension reform and privatizations\, defense of the “traditional Brazilian family\,” and the promise to address Brazil’s rampant crime rates through violent policing helped him gain the support of many conservative segments. Meanwhile\, during his first nine months in office\, his government is already facing criticism for his divisive rhetoric\, attacks on the press\, laxing of environmental regulations\, and cuts to education\, leading many public figures to denounce him as an authoritarian figure. In this panel\, Benjamin Lessing\, Guilherme Casarões\, and Marilia Corrêa will discuss different aspects of Bolsonaro’s government and Brazil’s current political landscape. \n\nRobert Jansen is a comparative-historical sociologist with substantive interests in politics\, culture\, and memory. He has recently completed a book on the historical emergence of populist mobilization in early twentieth century Peru. He is currently working on a project on the history of historic preservationism in the United States.\n\nGuilherme Casarões is a lecturer at the Fundação Getúlio Vargas São Paulo Business School (FGV EAESP). He holds a Ph.D. and an M.A. in political science from the University of São Paulo and an M.A. in international relations from the State University of Campinas. He has authored many peer-reviewed articles and book chapters on Brazilian foreign policy and Latin American politics. Among his publications are “Brazil First\, Climate Last: Bolsonaro’s Foreign Policy” (GIGA Latin America Focus\, 2019)\; “The Evolution of Brazilian Foreign Policy Studies: Four Perspectives” (Routledge Handbook of Brazilian Politics\, 2018)\; “Itamaraty’s Mission” (Cairo Review of Global Affairs\, 2014)\; and “Itamaraty on the Move” (Bulletin of Latin American Research\, 2013). He has been a visiting fellow at Tel Aviv University and Brandeis University.\n\nMarília Corrêa is a WCED Postdoctoral Fellow for 2019-21. She received her Ph.D. in history at the University of Illinois\, Urbana-Champaign in 2019. Her dissertation\, titled “Unusual Suspects: Persecuted Officers and Soldiers Under Military Rule in Brazil\, 1964–1985\,” studies the military dictatorship in Brazil\, examining the life trajectories of armed forces officers and soldiers who did not support the 1964 coup. Focusing on the perspectives of these expelled soldiers\, she examines how they remember their expulsions from the military\, life during the dictatorship\, and the ways in which their experiences and the memory they created affected these men socially and culturally. Her dissertation is situated at the intersection of political\, social\, and gender history\, as well as at the history of memory\, law\, and human rights of Latin America in the context of the Cold War. Her research has been funded by the Tinker Foundation\, the Nelle M. Signor Graduate Scholarship in International Relations\, the Illinois Program for Research in Humanities and the Lemann Institute for Brazilian Studies.\n\nBenjamin Lessing\, assistant professor of political science at the University of Chicago\, studies \"criminal conflict\"—organized violence involving armed groups that do not seek formal state power\, such as drug cartels\, prison gangs\, and paramilitaries. His first book\, \"Making Peace In Drug Wars\" (Cambridge Studies in Comparative Politics\, 2017)\, examines armed conflict between drug cartels and the state in Colombia\, Mexico and Brazil. Lessing has also founded the Criminal Governance in the Americas project\, which is measuring the extent and intensity of gang rule over civilian populations throughout Latin America\, and is co-director of the Project on Political Violence at Chicago. Lessing has also studied gang-state negotiations and armed electioneering by paramilitary groups. Prior to his doctoral work at UC Berkeley\, Lessing lived in Rio de Janeiro for five years\, first as a Fulbright scholar\, later conducting field research on arms trafficking in Latin America and the Caribbean for non-governmental organizations including Amnesty International\, Oxfam\, and Viva Rio\, Brazil’s largest NGO.\n\nIf you are a person with a disability who requires an accommodation to attend this event\, please reach out to us at weisercenter@umich.edu at least 2 weeks in advance of this event.

SUMMARY:Performance:Mi Vida Su Vida - Open Dance Workshop with Alexis Saenz
DESCRIPTION:The Ancestral Healing Movement Workshop is an experience that requires participants to use imagination and movement to heal past trauma and embrace resilience. During this process\, students should be prepared to experience all emotions that come up for them and will leverage movement to release feelings or experiences that no longer serve them. This class requires all senses and in some cases speech to take up space in the room figuratively and physically. Using epigenetics to understand and movement as medicine to heal\, the goal is to physically release trauma that is pinned up in the body and embrace generational resilience for a brighter future.\n\nSaenz's residency at U-M also includes a screening of the film \"The Process of Remembering\" on Friday\, Oct. 4th at 6:30 pm in the Betty Pease Studio Theater within the University of Michigan Department of Dance.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:LACS Event. A History of Coffee in Three Cups
DESCRIPTION:Do you know where you coffee came from? If you're at Zingerman's Coffee Company\, probably yes. More and more\, roasters and coffee shops emphasize how and where they source their beans. But how did coffee get to those places - Costa Rica\, Brazil\, and Ethiopia - in the first place? And what happened when it got there?\n   \n   Join us for a conversation with Casey Lurtz\, author of the recent book From the Grounds Up: Building an Export Economy in Southern Mexico. We'll talk about how coffee spread outward from Eastern Africa and how its introduction reshaped local societies and economies. Looking at the multiplicity of ways in which coffee has been grown\, we'll think beyond roasting and brewing to understand how the histories of where coffee is cultivated flavor our morning cup.\n   \n   This talk will be paired with sample tastings of three distinctive coffees brewed at Zingerman's Coffee Company.\n   \n   ***Please note this event takes place at Zingerman's Coffee Company at 3723 Plaza Dr. #5\, Ann Arbor (near Costco). This is not the same as the Zingerman's Next Door Cafe or Deli in Kerrytown.\n\nCosponsors: African Studies Center and Zingerman's Coffee Company

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Circulating the Avant-Garde: Aesthetic Counter-Publics in the Little Magazines\, 1890-1920
DESCRIPTION:Thanks to advances in color lithography and photo-engraving as well as resurgent interest in small-press publishing\, richly illustrated and typeset “little magazines” flourished between 1890 and 1920. The materials collected in this exhibit\, all held in the Special Collections Research Center\, showcase not only the variety\, beauty\, and originality of turn-of-the-century print-making\, but also new ideas about what a magazine can do: namely\, create distinctive communities around avant-garde ideas outside of mainstream channels. The communities imagined in these magazines are sometimes explicitly political or aesthetic\, but more often both combine in writers’ and artists’ resistance to mass-market\, industrial\, bourgeois\, and nationalist print cultures.\n\nThe magazines in this exhibit are mostly American and British\, but many are distinctively cosmopolitan\, crossing borders to engage with international movements like socialism\, decadence\, and modernism in their attempts to create an audience united by aesthetic and political ideals rather than nationality. Although the little magazines’ resistance to mainstream journalism shortened their lifespan and restricted their circulation\, their experimental approach has had a lasting impact on our sense of magazines as flexible aesthetic and social media.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Civitates Orbis Terrarum: Braun & Hogenberg’s Evolving World
DESCRIPTION:Civitates Orbis Terrarum (Cities of the World)\, the first standardized city atlas\, contains over 540 maps and views between its six volumes. First published in 1572 by Georg Braun (1541-1622) and Frans Hogenberg (1535-1590)\, Civitates was first intended as a companion to Ortelius’s Theatrum Orbis Terrarum. New editions of the city atlas continued to be printed through 1617. Hogenberg\, one of the most prolific engravers of the time\, was joined by many other engravers in creating the Civitates. Braun edited the work and provided the descriptions of the cities on the verso of each plate. This exhibit contains 18 works from the Civitates\, including many from the Clark Library’s holdings. Also included are reproductions of large panoramas Amsterdam\, London\, and St. Petersburg that reflect the evolution of city mapping through the 17th and 18th centuries.

The pieces are constructed by gluing many layers of paper over wire armatures. When dry\, the sculptures are painted in an often splashy\, sketchy style. Wirtz’ silly animal works are what the artist is best known for\, and they take shape in his Goetzville\, Michigan studio.\n\nGifts of Art Gallery – University Hospital Main Corridor\, Floor 2\n1500 E.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Oil on Water: Painting on Linen
DESCRIPTION:Danielle Eubank is an award-winning artist who has been on four international sailing expeditions and painted every ocean on the planet to raise awareness about the oceans and climate change. Her large paintings are emotive abstract portraits of specific bodies of water. The Oil on Water exhibition features Eubank’s oil on linen paintings of the Arctic Ocean and the Mediterranean Sea. She creates patterns within patterns\, representing vertical stacks of rhythms. The undulating forms\, such as water ripples\, oil slicks\, and refuse\, combined with the memories that water evokes\, makes her work eye-opening\, yet soothing and sensual. \n\nGifts of Art Gallery – University Hospital Main Lobby\, Floor 1                                                                       \n1500 E.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Ваза: Copper & Brass Vessels
DESCRIPTION:Victoria (Vika) Bulgakova grew up in Ukraine\, a part of the former Soviet Union. She immigrated to the U.S. in 1994\, and for the next 22 years\, New York became her home. In 2016\, she moved to Michigan to pursue an MFA at Cranbrook Academy of Art. She found the raw beauty of Detroit inspiring and kept her metalsmithing studio practice in the city. The copper and brass vessels in her Ваза series and other included works are a meditation on fluidity of memories: their ability to shift from reflection to re-invention over time. Each vessel potentially holds something within its boundaries\, whether tangible or not. \n\nGifts of Art Gallery – Taubman Health Center North Lobby\, Floor 1\n1500 E.

SUMMARY:Conference / Symposium:Central Bank of the Future Conference
DESCRIPTION:Traditionally\, central banks have served three policy functions – monetary policy\, payments systems oversight\, and financial institution supervision. This conference will convene international experts and practitioners to examine how these core functions contribute to financial inclusion\, poverty allevation\, and a more inclusive economy – and what could be improved.\n\nThe conference contributes to a research initiative undertaken by the University of Michigan’s Center on Finance\, Law & Policy\, in partnership with the Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation to consider how the role of a central bank could evolve in the future and enable central banks to make greater contributions toward financial inclusion. Ultimately\, the research intends to identify technologies\, processes\, or tools that could benefit a central bank in supporting public policy objectives related to inclusion\, and consider whether other sectors\, including philanthropy\, might have a role to play in supporting the development of those tools. \n\nRegistration to the event is free. Speakers and attendees will include individuals from  standards-setting bodies\, central banks and other financial regulators\, and policymakers\, as well as futurists and technologists\, and other financial ecosystem stakeholders.\n\nFor more information visit http://financelawpolicy.umich.edu/central-bank-of-the-future-conference

Multiple bottlenecks exist during discovery\, product development\, manufacturing process development\, and cGMP manufacturing leading to timelines from discovery through first in man testing often averaging 7-11 years.  RoosterBio has developed and commercialized novel hMSC bioprocess systems that are designed for rapid process development and cGMP tech transfer to radically reduce development timelines to as little as 2-4 years. Requirements for implementation of scalable bioreactor production systems will also be addressed\, and data will be presented from 50L scale microcarrier-based processes with CQAs for both hMSCs and EVs.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Exhibition | Graffiti as Devotion along the Nile: El-Kurru\, Sudan
DESCRIPTION:Ancient graffiti provide a unique glimpse into the lives of individuals in antiquity. Religious devotion in ancient Kush (a region located in modern-day northern Sudan)\, involved pilgrimage and leaving informal marks on temples\, pyramids\, and other monumental structures. These graffiti are found in temples throughout the later (“Meroitic”) period of Kush\, when it bordered Roman Egypt. They represent one of the few direct traces of the devotional practices of private people in Kush and hint at individuals’ thoughts\, values\, and daily lives. This exhibition explores the times and places in which Kushite graffiti were inscribed through photos\, text\, and interactive media presentations. At the heart of the show are the hundreds of Meroitic graffiti recently discovered in a rock-cut temple by the Kelsey expedition to El-Kurru in northern Sudan.\n\nCurators: Geoff Emberling and Suzanne Davis\n\nView the online exhibition:\nhttp://exhibitions.kelsey.lsa.umich.edu/graffiti-el-kurru/

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Other Crusoes\, Other Islands: Mapping a Complex Legacy
DESCRIPTION:On the 300th anniversary of the publication of The Life and Surprising Adventures of Robinson Crusoe\, of York\, Mariner\, this exhibit interrogates the troubled legacy of Daniel Defoe’s seminal English novel. It also explores how creators have pushed back against the colonialist\, hyper-masculine\, and racist ethos of the text by using the castaway narrative to explore self-sufficiency\, otherness\, and the role of gendered and racialized ideas in constructing the self.\n\nThis novel of shipwreck\, survival\, and rescue has become a cultural touchstone. Today\, many people who haven’t read the novel still feel familiar with key plot elements\, Robinson Crusoe\, and Friday. Yet\, there is less familiarity with how both the original text and many of the adaptations of Robinson Crusoe have fed into and reinforced narratives of imperialism and racism. Drawing on the Hubbard Collection of Imaginary Voyages - one of the world’s most comprehensive collections of editions\, translations\, adaptations\, and spin-offs of Robinson Crusoe - Other Crusoes\, Other Islands seeks to understand how readers and writers have engaged with the story since its initial publication in 1719.\n\nContent Advisory: Please be aware that some items in this exhibit feature racist imagery and potentially painful content. Although Robinson Crusoe is often treated as children’s literature and this exhibit includes children’s books and board games\, it is not an exhibit geared towards children and reflects the significant shifts over time in ideas about what is appropriate for children.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Yo Tengo Nombre
DESCRIPTION:This series of paintings was inspired by the Trump administration’s “zero tolerance” immigration policy and the images of migrant families being separated and detained at the US-Mexico border that dominated media outlets across the nation since the summer of 2017. The exhibition also includes nearly 100 I.D. photos of migrant children from a Texas holding center. Buentello took the photos  in 2014 while working for an intake agency.\n\n\"Focusing on images from the US media sources that exposed the violence of migrants’ dehumanization\, vulnerability\, fear\, loss\, and criminalization\, the paintings document the embodiment of state-authorized brutality and erasures of personhood.\" -Ruth Leonela Buentello\n\nThis project is funded by a grant from the Efroymson Family Fund.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:Education Inequality and Income Inequality in South Africa since the End of Apartheid
DESCRIPTION:When apartheid ended in 1994\, South Africa had one of the highest levels of income inequality in the world. Inequality in education was both a cause and a consequence of high income inequality. After 25 years there has been little change in income inequality\, in spite of improvements in levels of education and education inequality. This presentation for those 50 and over analyzes trends in education inequality and income inequality and examines how they interact in South Africa’s highly unequal society.\n\nDavid Lam is Director of the Institute for Social Research and Professor of Economics at the University of Michigan. He received a Ph.D. in economics from the University of California\, Berkeley. He is Honorary Professor of Economics at the University of Cape Town\, South Africa\, where he has done collaborative research since 1996. His research in South Africa analyzes links between education\, labor markets\, and income inequality.\n\nThis is the fourth in a six-lecture series. The subject is South Africa: Past\, Present\, and a Look Forward. The next lecture will be October 10\, 2019. The title is: South African Performing Arts in the New Democracy.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Nature a Moment: Visions of the World from Three Korean-American Artists
DESCRIPTION:Three Chicago-area Korean-American artists render deeply personal interpretations of the natural world in the exhibit “Nature a Moment” at Matthaei Botanical Gardens. Using woodcut\, painting on canvas\, and mixed media\, Linda Hyong\, Sung Eun Hong\, and Seong Ok Lee explore the world of flowers\, gardens\, and nature in vivid works that slow time to a fleeting present moment.\n\nLinda Hyong is a University of Michigan alumna and former teaching assistant in the U-M Stamps School of Art & Design. She draws her inspiration from Claude Monet’s water lily garden in France to create her own modern interpretation of impressionism. Seong Ok Lee is inspired by flowers\, which she believes are the most beautiful forms in nature. In her dream-like\, nearly abstract paintings\, Sung Eun Hong communicates her vision of what she calls “pure dreams and fantasy.”\n\nExhibit runs September 14 through November 15\, 2019 at the\n\nUniversity of Michigan Matthaei Botanical Gardens\, 1800 N. Dixboro Rd.\, Ann Arbor. Free.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Abstraction\, Color\, and Politics in the Early 1970s
DESCRIPTION:Can abstract art be about politics? In the early 1970s\, that question was hotly debated as artists\, critics\, and the public grappled with the relationship between art\, politics\, race\, and feminism. Many of those debates centered on bringing to light the roles that gender and race played in how “great modern art” was defined and assessed\, and on employing art to advance civil rights. Within this discourse\, abstraction had an especially fraught role. To many\, the decision by women artists and artists of color  to make abstract art seemed to represent a retreat from politics and protest: an abnegation of a commitment to civil rights and feminism. Abstraction\, Color\, and Politics in the Early 1970s presents large-scale work by four leading American artists—Helen Frankenthaler\, Sam Gilliam\, Al Loving\, and Louise Nevelson—who chose abstraction as a means of expression within the intense political climate of the early 1970s.\n\nUMMA gratefully acknowledges the following donors for their generous support of this exhibition:\n\nLead Exhibition Sponsors: University of Michigan Office of the Provost\, Michigan Medicine\, and College of Literature\, Science\, and the Arts\n\nExhibition Endowment Donors:  Richard and Rosann Noel Endowment Fund\, Herbert W. and Susan L. Johe Endowment\, and Robert and Janet Miller Fund\n\nUniversity of Michigan Funding Partners: Institute for Research on Women and Gender\, School of Social Work\, Department of Political Science\, and Department of Women's Studies

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Abstraction\, Color\, and Politics:
DESCRIPTION:In the midst of the political and cultural upheavals of the 60s and 70s\, artists\, critics\, and the public grappled with the relationship between art\, politics\, race\, and feminism. During these decades\, the notion that abstraction was a purely formal and American art form\, concerned only with timeless themes disconnected from the present\, was met with increased skepticism. Women artists and artists of color began to actively and assertively explore abstraction’s possibilities. The artworks in Abstraction\, Color\, and Politics: The 1960s and 1970s demonstrate both radical and disarming changes in how artists worked and what they thought their art was about. Their new formal and intellectual strategies—seen here across large-scale and miniature work—dramatically transformed the practice of abstraction in the 1960s and 1970s in a politically shifting American landscape.\n\nUMMA gratefully acknowledges the following donors for their generous support:\n\nLead Exhibition Sponsors: University of Michigan Office of the Provost\, Michigan Medicine\, and College of Literature\, Science\, and the Arts\n\nExhibition Endowment Donors:  Richard and Rosann Noel Endowment Fund\, Herbert W. and Susan L. Johe Endowment\, and Robert and Janet Miller Fund\n\nUniversity of Michigan Funding Partners: Institute for Research on Women and Gender\, School of Social Work\, Department of Political Science\, and Department of Women's Studies

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Border Control: Traversing Horizons in Media Practice
DESCRIPTION:In September 2019\, the University of Michigan Penny W. Stamps School of Art & Design will host the New Media Caucus 2019 Symposium and Exhibition\, Border Control.  Symposium and exhibition events will take place in Ann Arbor at the Stamps School of Art and Design (2000 Bonisteel Blvd.) and Stamps Gallery (201 S. Division St.).\n\nExhibition Dates: September 20 - November 10\, 2019\nSymposium Dates: September 19 - 22\, 2019\nGuest Curator: Allison Collins\, Media Arts Curator\, Western Front\n\nCurated by Allison Collins in collaboration with Carrie Edinger and Srimoyee Mitra.\nIn partnership with the New Media Caucus \n\nHuman migration is a defining issue of the 21st century\, often calling into question the relevance\, role\, and responsibilities of national borders across the globe. As individuals seek refuge from geopolitical and environmental forces\, we become an increasingly globalized community. Demarcations of all types are simultaneously porous and closed\, defensive and receptive\, and seen in almost every facet of our existence. Border Control responds to these conditions with an open-ended question\, asking: “How has humanity made sense of the world in relation to borders and boundaries\, both physically and psychologically?” While positioned within (or outside of) defined spaces and identities\, human refusal of such literal definitions is paramount. Even while lines drawn have important consequences for lived reality\, the winds\, currents\, and natural energies of the Earth deny enclosures and definitions that politics and maps might suggest.\n\nDrawn from practices that are touched or driven by new media\, Border Control assembles works by artists who consider geographical contexts\, patterns of migration\, displacement\, and statelessness. Collectively\, they offer projects with subterfuge\, refusal\, and reconsideration of imposed state-sanctioned boundaries.\n\n \n\n

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Copies and Invention in East Asia
DESCRIPTION:Far from being frowned upon as uncreative\, in China\, Korea\, and Japan\, copying has long been considered a valuable practice. Through works of art spanning ancient to contemporary times\, Copies and Invention in East Asia challenges our understanding of originality\, and presents copying as an act of imaginative interpretation. The exhibition includes burial goods that conjure a world for the deceased\; Buddhist sculptures produced in multiples to amplify religious experience and meaning\; paintings in which a master’s brushstrokes are faithfully duplicated as a way of shaping the self\; and contemporary works that address multiplicity and duplication in the modern world.\n\nLead support is provided by the University of Michigan Office of the Provost\, Michigan Medicine\, Lieberthal-Rogel Center for Chinese Studies\, Center for Japanese Studies\, Nam Center for Korean Studies\, School of Information\, and College of Engineering. Additional generous support is provided by the University of Michigan Fabrication Studio at the Duderstadt Center\, the Department of Asian Languages and Cultures\, and SeeMeCNC 3D Printers.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:New at UMMA: Walter Oltmann
DESCRIPTION:Infant Skull II\, a woven “tapestry” made out of very fine aluminum wire\, only reveals its shape when seen from afar. Drawing inspiration from his country’s basketry traditions\, the South African artist Walter Oltmann (b. 1960) alternates densely layered sections with open spaces\, allowing the underlying surface of the work to show through. The skull that emerges is\, in a South African context\, evocative of the Cradle of Humankind—a series of caves outside Johannesburg\, where some of the oldest hominin fossils in the world have been found.\n \nThe work complements UMMA’s renowned and growing collection of historical and contemporary African art and reminds us of the central role of Africa in the history of humankind. The purchase was made possible thanks to the generosity of UMMA Director's Acquisition Committee.\n\nThis acquisition was made possible by the generosity of the UMMA Director's Acquisition Committee\, 2016.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:CJS Noon Lecture Series | Is Japanese Trade Policy Finally Proactive? Japan’s Multilateral Leadership in TPP
DESCRIPTION:Since the 1980s\, Japan’s foreign policy\, including its trade policy\, has been known to be “reactive.” Subsequent studies have modified this rather monotonic characterization\, but to date\, no one has found that Japan is willing and able to take a strong leadership role in a multilateral setting. By historical standards\, however\, Japan’s leadership in concluding TPP-11 negotiations was rather remarkable. Is Japan finally proactive? It will be demonstrated that Japan found itself in an unusual set of circumstances in TPP-11 and that one cannot generalize from this episode that Japan is now a proactive international player. \n    \nKeisuke Iida is a Professor in the Graduate Schools for Law and Politics at the University of Tokyo. His recent publications include Japan’s Security and Economic Dependence on China and the United States. He received his Ph.D. from Harvard University and formerly taught at Princeton University and Aoyama Gakuin University.\n\nIf you are a person with a disability who requires an accommodation to attend this event\, please reach out to us at least 2 weeks in advance of this event.

DESCRIPTION:News coverage and political discourse around the ongoing immigration debate and the situation on the US-Mexico border rarely includes the historical and geographic contexts of migration in Central America\, where many current migrants begin their journeys. Throughout the fall semester\, the LACS Central American Contexts Series will sponsor speakers and events at U-M in an effort to more deeply contextualize the lived experience of diverse Central Americans and the geographic\, social\, and political relationship between Central America and southern Mexico. \n    \nIn the first event of this fall speaker series\, Dr. Casey Lurtz\, assistant professor of history at Johns Hopkins University\, will speak about the history of Mexico's other border\, the southern border with Guatemala. This lecture will expand on the research for her recent book\, “From the Grounds Up: Building an Export Economy in Southern Mexico” (Stanford University Press\, 2019)\, as well as her recent piece on the Stanford University Press blog (available at https://stanfordpress.typepad.com/blog/2019/07/what-we-talk-about-when-we-talk-about-borders.html).

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:Webcomics and Depression
DESCRIPTION:Because they appear in social media feeds and are easily shared online\, webcomics can be a powerful method of solidarity building for marginalized audiences.  In this public lecture\, Dr. Leah Misemer will discuss how the spread of Allie Brosh's webcomic Hyperbole and a Half increases the visibility of the experience of depression\, while the comments section provides a space for conversations about depression that counteract the feelings of isolation associated with the illness.  Based on this case study\, Misemer suggests that\, as comics and digital media\, webcomics are uniquely positioned to raise awareness about and to counter the social stigma surrounding mental illness.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Departmental Seminar (899): Eunhye Song\, Pennsylvania State University
DESCRIPTION:The Departmental Seminar Series is open to all. U-M Industrial and Operations Engineering graduate students and faculty are especially encouraged to attend.\n\nThe seminar will be followed by a reception in the IOE Commons (Room 1709) from 4 p.m. to 5 p.m.\n\nTitle: Sequential Bayesian risk set estimation for robust simulation optimization under input model uncertainty\n\nAbstract:\nThis talk discusses a new way of approaching a discrete simulation optimization\nproblem when the input distributions of the simulation model are estimated with error from real-world observations. This problem is known as ‘simulation optimization under input uncertainty’ and has been studied actively in recent years. Most approaches provide either asymptotic guarantee that the selected solution is the real-world optimum as the real-world sample size increases or find the optimum to an alternative formulation such as the distributionally robust optimum. This work focuses on finite-sample inference on the relative performances of the solutions while uncertainty about the input models are captured by their Bayesian posteriors. A user-specified smallest optimality gap of interest is reflected to control conservativeness of the procedure\, so that two solutions whose expected performances are within is considered practically indistinguishable. The -level risk set of solution is defined as the set of solutions whose expected performance is practically better () than with significant probability () under the posterior on the input models. The size of the risk set shows robustness of solution\; an empty risk set implies that there is no practically better solution than even with input uncertainty. For efficient estimation of the risk set\, the expected performance is modeled\nas a Gaussian process (GP) that takes a solution and a collection of input distributions generated from their posterior as inputs. A one-step look-ahead sampling rule is proposed to choose which solution-distributions pair to simulate in the next iteration to minimize the estimation error of the risk set.\n\nBio:\nEunhye Song is the Harold and Inge Marcus Early Career Assistant Professor in Industrial and Manufacturing Engineering at Penn State University. She earned her PhD degree in Industrial Engineering and Management Sciences at Northwestern University in 2017 and MS and BS in Industrial and Systems Engineering at Korea Advanced Institute of Science and Technology (KAIST) in 2012 and 2010\, respectively. Her research interests include design of simulation experiments\, large-scale discrete simulation optimization\, input uncertainty quantification\, and simulation optimization in the presence of model risk. She has collaborated\nwith Simio\, a leading discrete-event simulation software company\, on developing a statistical tool to quantify input uncertainty for a Simio model\, which is now a standard part of Simio’s software product. She also worked with General Motors’ R&D group on global sensitivity analysis of Vehicle Content Optimization simulator\, which GM uses to find the optimal vehicle content portfolios of their major vehicle lines to maximize GM’s market share and profit. She is an active member of INFORMS Simulation Society (I-Sim) and currently serving on the I-Sim Diversity Committee chair.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Rackham North: It’s in the Syllabus and Other First-Generation College Student Experiences
DESCRIPTION:An immersive\, playfully disorienting encounter\, It’s in the Syllabus and Other First Generation College Student (FGCS) Experiences offers participants a complex view of a heterogenous identity group: students who are the first generation in their family to attend college. Because this session focuses on interventions instructors can make in the classroom\, it is appropriate for faculty\, graduate student instructors\, and staff who have an instructional role. Participants witness several different intersecting stories about FGCS experiences and challenges\, which confront stereotypes about who FGCS are and what they bring to the classroom. Through facilitated activities and discussion\, instructors strategize about ways to make their classrooms more inclusive and foster belonging for FGCS.\n**The theatrical portion of this session contains strong language.\nIn this session\, participants will:\n\nDiscuss barriers that create challenges for FGCS.\nIdentify specific classroom strategies to better support FGCS.\nConsider how to deploy resources on campus relevant to FGCS.\n\n**Early departures can be disruptive to the performance and other participants. Please only register if you are able to attend the entire workshop.\nRegistration is required at https://myumi.ch/qgg3e.\nWe want to ensure full and equitable participation in our events. If an accommodation would promote your full participation in this event\, please follow the registration link to indicate your accommodation requirements. Please let us know as soon as possible in order to have adequate time (one week preferred) to arrange for your requested accommodation(s) or an effective alternative.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:CLASP Alumni of the Year Lecture - Dr. Mei-Ching Fok
DESCRIPTION:Our guest for this year's CLASP Alumni of the Year Lecture will be Dr. Mei-Ching Fok of NASA Goddard Space Flight Center. \n\nDr. Fok will present a lecture entitled \"From RAM to CIMI\"\n\nAbstract: \nDuring my graduate study in the department of  Atmospheric Oceanic and Space Sciences (AOSS)\, now called Climate and Space Sciences and Engineering (CLaSP)\, I was charged to develop a model of the energetic ions in the inner magnetosphere known as the ring current. The model was very simple by today’s standards\, assuming a basic dipole magnetic field and equatorially mirroring particles only. Nevertheless\, the model contained unique features such as\, inclusion of a dynamic plasmasphere model and energy transfer between the hot ring current (energies of several keV) and cold plasmasphere particles (energies of a few eV). After I left Michigan\, the model was further developed at AOSS to include all pitch angles and wave-particles interactions\, and was renamed the Ring current-Atmosphere interaction Model (RAM). During my post-doc years at NASA\, I used ionospheric foot points to define flux tubes/spatial grid. This change prepared my model to couple with the famous Rice Convection Model (RCM)\, in which spatial grid is also fixed at the ionosphere. The combined model was called the Comprehensive Ring Current Model (CRCM). This marked a further evolution of the modeling approach as it considers electric coupling between the ionosphere and magnetosphere\, and provides full pitch-angle distribution of ring current particles. As space weather and radiation belt prediction became more and more popular\, a Radiation Belt Environment (RBE) model was created with similar structure as the CRCM but was extended to relativistic energies and considered diffusion from various wave modes. Many scientific studies and space weather predictions were carried out using the CRCM and the RBE model. In the meantime\, both models were coupled with global MHD models to study solar wind-magnetosphere-ionosphere interactions. In recent years\, the CRCM and the RBE model were combined into one model capable of studying the inner magnetospheric populations from the cold plasmasphere\, to the hot ring current\, and the very energetic radiation belts.  This newly combined model was aptly named Comprehensive Inner Magnetosphere-Ionosphere (CIMI) model. In this talk\, I will highlight achievements attained by these models and future developments of CIMI. I will also share my experiences and thoughts on how to face struggles and challenges as a scientist and a modeler.\n\nBiography: \nDr. Fok's main research interests are studies of the radiation belts and ring current during geomagnetic active periods\, understanding the mechanisms responsible for their intensification and decay by numerical modeling and data analysis. She has developed a complex model\, named as the Comprehensive Inner Magnetosphere-Ionosphere (CIMI) Model\, that can compute and predict the energetic plasma fluxes in the radiation belts-ring current region. Dr. Fok was a participating scientist of the IMAGE mission and is the Project Scientist of the TWINS mission. She is heavily involved in neutral atom imaging. The modeling tools she developed have contributed greatly in interpreting images from the neutral atom imagers on IMAGE and TWINS. Dr. Fok is also involved in the Van Allen Probes mission. Her CIMI model is running in real time to predict energetic ion and electron fluxes that Van Allen Probes satellites would observe.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:EEB Thursday Seminar: Locating and learning from bright spots among the world’s coral reefs
DESCRIPTION:The continuing and rapid global decline of coral reefs calls for new approaches to sustain reefs and the millions of people who depend on them. In this talk\, I present ongoing work by my research group aimed at rethinking reef conservation along two lines. First is directly confronting the drivers of change.  In addition to environmental factors\, there are socioeconomic drivers that influence the condition of coral reef ecosystems\, though reef governance rarely focus on explicitly managing these. My colleagues and I analyzed data from >1800 tropical reef sites worldwide to quantify how key socioeconomic and environmental drivers are related to reef fish biomass\, a key indicator of ecosystem condition and resource availability. Our global analysis reveals that the strongest driver of reef fish biomass is our metric of potential interactions with urban centres (market gravity)\, with important\, but smaller\, roles of local management\, human demographics\, socioeconomic development\, and environmental conditions. These results highlight multiple underutilized policy levers that could help to sustain coral reefs\, such as dampening the negative impact of markets. Second\, drawing on theory and practice in human health and rural development\, we use a positive deviance (bright spots) analysis to systematically identify coral reefs that have substantially higher biomass than expected\, given their socioeconomic and environmental conditions. Importantly\, bright spots were not simply comprised of remote areas with low fishing pressure- they include localities where human populations and use of ecosystems resources is high\, potentially providing novel insights into how communities have successfully confronted strong drivers of change. Uncovering the mechanisms that underpin the ability of bright spots to confront high pressures may form a basis for novel policy approaches.\n\nView YouTube video of seminar: https://youtu.be/qVywZwcWMiY

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:EIHS Lecture: Finding One's Racial Self: It's Always Personal
DESCRIPTION:This lecture explores the intersection between autobiography and history. It contends that the personal often shapes understanding\, reason\, perspective\, and accounting. It centers on a handful of life events to explore and exam how we must think and write about race\, historically. By juxtaposing the personal and the historical\, it asks questions about boundaries\, understandings and truths. It argues that such a juxtaposition centers on the multipositional self.  \n\nNoted social historian\, award-winning author\, and educational leader Earl Lewis is the founding director of the University of Michigan Center for Social Solutions. A professor of history and Afroamerican and African studies\, Lewis is president emeritus of The Andrew W. Mellon Foundation (2013-18). At Michigan\, Lewis and colleagues in the center will address three core areas of social concern: diversity and race\, water\, and the dignity of labor in an automated world.  He previously served as executive vice president for academic affairs and provost at Emory University as well as the Asa Griggs Candler Professor of History and African American Studies (2004-2012). Prior to Emory\, Lewis served on the faculty at the University of Michigan (1989-2004) and the University of California at Berkeley (1984-1989). In addition to professorial roles and titles (Robin D.G. Kelley and Elsa Barkley Brown Collegiate Professor)\, he served Michigan as vice provost and dean of the Rackham School of Graduate Studies (1998-2004). A frequent lecturer\, he has authored or edited nine books\, scores of essays\, articles and comments.  A member of numerous national committees and boards of directors or trustees\, he is past president of the Organization of American Historians. He is an alum of Concordia College-Moorhead (1978) and the University of Minnesota (PhD\, history\, 1984)\, which honored him most recently with the College of Liberal Arts Outstanding Alumni Award (2018). He is the recipient of several honorary degrees\, a member of the Council on Foreign Relations\, and a fellow of the American Academy of Arts and Sciences. \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:Other:Nonadiabatic and Quantum Dynamics in Materials
DESCRIPTION:Dynamics of excited states plays a determining role in many materials such as solar cells\, photocatalysts\, or photo-actuated molecular switches. Electron-hole recombination\, interfacial charge transfer\, nonradiative excitation energy relaxation\, photoinduced nuclear reorganization\, and bond breaking  - all require accounting for nonadiabatic (NA) effects. Nuclear tunneling and zero-point energies constitute quantum nuclear effects that may non-trivially affect the electron-nuclear dynamics. Understanding details of nonadiabatic and quantum dynamics (NA/QD) at the atomistic level requires advanced tools and methodologies. Often\, one also needs to address the computational limitations due to systems’ sizes and processes’ time scales\, what makes modeling NA/QD in realistic materials a challenging problem.\nOver the past few years\, my group has been addressing various methodological problems in NA/QD to enable computationally affordable yet reasonably accurate modeling of excited states dynamics in extended atomistic systems. In this presentation\, I will overview several approaches we have developed in this regard and will illustrate their utility in modeling charge transfer dynamics in organic and inorganic solar-harvesting systems. The developments in three key areas will be highlighted: a) modeling NA/QD in extended systems via simplified semiclassical and fragmentation approaches as well as via innovative software that leverage linear-scaling electronic structure methods\; b) modeling slow NA/QD via the machine-learning-inspired quasi-stochastic Hamiltonian approach and via the enhanced sampling scheme\; c) accounting for quantum nuclear effects via the entangled trajectories Hamiltonian dynamics (ETHD) method. Along the way\, I will touch on other important methodological questions such as the role of phase correction\, decoherence\, and the effect of electronic structure choice. Last but not least\, I will highlight chemical insights we have gained from the NA/QD modeling in all-inorganic perovskites\, quantum dots\, and materials’ heterojunctions.\n                       \n                                                \n                       \n                                                \n                       \n                        \nAlexey Akimov (University of Buffalo)

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:Stephen Jones: Hatology
DESCRIPTION:Born in Cheshire\, England\, and schooled in Liverpool\, milliner Stephen Jones is a fashion icon. Coming of age during London’s street fashion boom in the late 1970s\, Jones first made a name for himself as an uncompromising style-blazer at the legendary Blitz nightclub\, where he was perpetually crowned with a striking hat of his own idiosyncratic design. By 1980\, Jones had opened his first millinery salon in the heart of London’s Covent Garden. Those premises soon became a place of pilgrimage and patronage\, as everyone from rock stars to royalty\, from Boy George to Diana\, Princess of Wales\, identified Jones as the milliner who would help them make arresting headlines. Nearly forty years later\, Jones’s era-defining edge continues to attract a celebrity clientele which includes Rihanna\, Lady Gaga\, Mick Jagger\, and the Royal Family. Now\, as ever\, at the forefront of fashion\, his beguiling hats routinely grace the most celebrated magazine covers and enliven window displays of the world’s most stylish stores. From runways to racecourses\, from pop-promos to royal garden parties\, millinery by Stephen Jones adds the exclamation mark to every fashion statement.\n\n Supported by Linda Dresner and Design Core Detroit.\n\n Left photo courtesy of @dafyddjonesphotographer

SUMMARY:Performance:Sense and Sensibility
DESCRIPTION:Adapted by Kate Hamill. \nBased on the novel by Jane Austen. \nDirected by Priscilla Lindsay. \n\nWhen sisters Elinor and Marianne Dashwood are left financially destitute by their father’s sudden passing\, they must navigate the perilous social circles in their new\, vulnerable status. As potential suitors come and go\, so do their hopes for true love. Full of gossip\, humor\, and heart-felt moments\, this classic story examines the effects of societal pressures on love and life. The play Sense and Sensibility premiered in 2014 at New York City’s Bedlam Theater Company\, returning for another\, longer run in 2016\, and was named The New York Times Critic’s Pick for both years. The New York Times calls Sense and Sensibility a “bouncy\, jaunty take on Austen…[that] remains remarkably true to the values and priorities of its source.”

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Civitates Orbis Terrarum: Braun & Hogenberg’s Evolving World
DESCRIPTION:Civitates Orbis Terrarum (Cities of the World)\, the first standardized city atlas\, contains over 540 maps and views between its six volumes. First published in 1572 by Georg Braun (1541-1622) and Frans Hogenberg (1535-1590)\, Civitates was first intended as a companion to Ortelius’s Theatrum Orbis Terrarum. New editions of the city atlas continued to be printed through 1617. Hogenberg\, one of the most prolific engravers of the time\, was joined by many other engravers in creating the Civitates. Braun edited the work and provided the descriptions of the cities on the verso of each plate. This exhibit contains 18 works from the Civitates\, including many from the Clark Library’s holdings. Also included are reproductions of large panoramas Amsterdam\, London\, and St. Petersburg that reflect the evolution of city mapping through the 17th and 18th centuries.

DESCRIPTION:This exhibit of Steve Wirtz’ sculptures features a selection of his Dynamic Football series and animal works. The Dynamic Football laminated paper works explore compositions of action\, allowing the artist to exploit the properties of the medium. The pieces are constructed by gluing many layers of paper over wire armatures. When dry\, the sculptures are painted in an often splashy\, sketchy style. Wirtz’ silly animal works are what the artist is best known for\, and they take shape in his Goetzville\, Michigan studio.\n\nGifts of Art Gallery – University Hospital Main Corridor\, Floor 2\n1500 E.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Oil on Water: Painting on Linen
DESCRIPTION:Danielle Eubank is an award-winning artist who has been on four international sailing expeditions and painted every ocean on the planet to raise awareness about the oceans and climate change.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Ваза: Copper & Brass Vessels
DESCRIPTION:Victoria (Vika) Bulgakova grew up in Ukraine\, a part of the former Soviet Union. She immigrated to the U.S. in 1994\, and for the next 22 years\, New York became her home. In 2016\, she moved to Michigan to pursue an MFA at Cranbrook Academy of Art. She found the raw beauty of Detroit inspiring and kept her metalsmithing studio practice in the city. The copper and brass vessels in her Ваза series and other included works are a meditation on fluidity of memories: their ability to shift from reflection to re-invention over time. Each vessel potentially holds something within its boundaries\, whether tangible or not. \n\nGifts of Art Gallery – Taubman Health Center North Lobby\, Floor 1\n1500 E.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Exhibition | Graffiti as Devotion along the Nile: El-Kurru\, Sudan
DESCRIPTION:Ancient graffiti provide a unique glimpse into the lives of individuals in antiquity. Religious devotion in ancient Kush (a region located in modern-day northern Sudan)\, involved pilgrimage and leaving informal marks on temples\, pyramids\, and other monumental structures. These graffiti are found in temples throughout the later (“Meroitic”) period of Kush\, when it bordered Roman Egypt. They represent one of the few direct traces of the devotional practices of private people in Kush and hint at individuals’ thoughts\, values\, and daily lives. This exhibition explores the times and places in which Kushite graffiti were inscribed through photos\, text\, and interactive media presentations. At the heart of the show are the hundreds of Meroitic graffiti recently discovered in a rock-cut temple by the Kelsey expedition to El-Kurru in northern Sudan.\n\nCurators: Geoff Emberling and Suzanne Davis\n\nView the online exhibition:\nhttp://exhibitions.kelsey.lsa.umich.edu/graffiti-el-kurru/

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Other Crusoes\, Other Islands: Mapping a Complex Legacy
DESCRIPTION:On the 300th anniversary of the publication of The Life and Surprising Adventures of Robinson Crusoe\, of York\, Mariner\, this exhibit interrogates the troubled legacy of Daniel Defoe’s seminal English novel. It also explores how creators have pushed back against the colonialist\, hyper-masculine\, and racist ethos of the text by using the castaway narrative to explore self-sufficiency\, otherness\, and the role of gendered and racialized ideas in constructing the self.\n\nThis novel of shipwreck\, survival\, and rescue has become a cultural touchstone. Today\, many people who haven’t read the novel still feel familiar with key plot elements\, Robinson Crusoe\, and Friday. Yet\, there is less familiarity with how both the original text and many of the adaptations of Robinson Crusoe have fed into and reinforced narratives of imperialism and racism. Drawing on the Hubbard Collection of Imaginary Voyages - one of the world’s most comprehensive collections of editions\, translations\, adaptations\, and spin-offs of Robinson Crusoe - Other Crusoes\, Other Islands seeks to understand how readers and writers have engaged with the story since its initial publication in 1719.\n\nContent Advisory: Please be aware that some items in this exhibit feature racist imagery and potentially painful content. Although Robinson Crusoe is often treated as children’s literature and this exhibit includes children’s books and board games\, it is not an exhibit geared towards children and reflects the significant shifts over time in ideas about what is appropriate for children.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Yo Tengo Nombre
DESCRIPTION:This series of paintings was inspired by the Trump administration’s “zero tolerance” immigration policy and the images of migrant families being separated and detained at the US-Mexico border that dominated media outlets across the nation since the summer of 2017. The exhibition also includes nearly 100 I.D. photos of migrant children from a Texas holding center. Buentello took the photos  in 2014 while working for an intake agency.\n\n\"Focusing on images from the US media sources that exposed the violence of migrants’ dehumanization\, vulnerability\, fear\, loss\, and criminalization\, the paintings document the embodiment of state-authorized brutality and erasures of personhood.\" -Ruth Leonela Buentello\n\nThis project is funded by a grant from the Efroymson Family Fund.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Nature a Moment: Visions of the World from Three Korean-American Artists
DESCRIPTION:Three Chicago-area Korean-American artists render deeply personal interpretations of the natural world in the exhibit “Nature a Moment” at Matthaei Botanical Gardens. Using woodcut\, painting on canvas\, and mixed media\, Linda Hyong\, Sung Eun Hong\, and Seong Ok Lee explore the world of flowers\, gardens\, and nature in vivid works that slow time to a fleeting present moment.\n\nLinda Hyong is a University of Michigan alumna and former teaching assistant in the U-M Stamps School of Art & Design. She draws her inspiration from Claude Monet’s water lily garden in France to create her own modern interpretation of impressionism. Seong Ok Lee is inspired by flowers\, which she believes are the most beautiful forms in nature. In her dream-like\, nearly abstract paintings\, Sung Eun Hong communicates her vision of what she calls “pure dreams and fantasy.”\n\nExhibit runs September 14 through November 15\, 2019 at the\n\nUniversity of Michigan Matthaei Botanical Gardens\, 1800 N. Dixboro Rd.\, Ann Arbor. Free.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Statistics Department Seminar Series: Long Nguyen\, Associate Professor\, Department of Statistics\, University of Michigan
DESCRIPTION:We study posterior contraction behaviors for parameters of interest in the context of Bayesian mixture modeling\, where the number of mixing components is unknown while the model itself may or may not be correctly specified. Posterior contraction rates are given under optimal transport distances for two popular types of prior specification: one requires explicitly a prior distribution on the number of mixture components\, and a nonparametric Bayesian approach which places a prior on the space of mixing distributions. Paraphrasing George Box\, all mixture models are misspecified\, but some may be more interpretable than others — it will be shown that the modeling choice of kernel density functions plays perhaps the most impactful roles in determining the posterior contraction rates in the misspecified situations. Drawing on concrete parameter estimation rates I will highlight some aspects about the interesting tradeoffs between model expressiveness and interpretability that a statistical modeler must negotiate in the rich world of mixture modeling. \nThis work is joint with Aritra Guha and Nhat Ho.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Strengths of Refugees and Their Community
DESCRIPTION:Refugees have been at the forefront of political discussion in the United States as the Syrian crisis escalates and xenophobia heightens. Much has been said regarding these refugees\, but all too often the voices of refugees themselves are left out of the conversation.\n\nThis exhibit uses the data collected from a Photovoice project\, combining photography and transcriptions from groups discussions with adolescent refugees to better understand the lived experiences of adolescent refugees. The gallery highlights five main themes that were discussed: Stability and Security\, Interpersonal Difficulties\, Rooting Factors\, Personal Growth\, and Contribution.\n\n“I wish I could help out people… Imma give them everything. Because they are my people\, I have to save my people.” -Alex

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Things I Like Most About the Clements Library
DESCRIPTION:The Clements Library is a treasure house of American history.  During a 23-year career with the Clements\, Brian Dunnigan has served as curator of maps\, head of research and publications\, associate director\, and acting director.  Daily contact with the collections has inspired reflections on some of the things that the Clements does very well\, driving his exhibit themes around active collecting\, conservation\, solving mysteries\, and more. \n\nDunnigan’s selections include poignant manuscripts\, striking visual imagery and cartography\, and some of his favorite materials from the collections\, drawing especially from his expertise in the mapping of the Great Lakes. This valedictory exhibit in the Clements’s soaring Avenir Foundation Reading Room dwells on seven areas of commitment and illustrates the concepts with some of the Library's most evocative and handsome holdings.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Abstraction\, Color\, and Politics in the Early 1970s
DESCRIPTION:Can abstract art be about politics? In the early 1970s\, that question was hotly debated as artists\, critics\, and the public grappled with the relationship between art\, politics\, race\, and feminism. Many of those debates centered on bringing to light the roles that gender and race played in how “great modern art” was defined and assessed\, and on employing art to advance civil rights. Within this discourse\, abstraction had an especially fraught role. To many\, the decision by women artists and artists of color  to make abstract art seemed to represent a retreat from politics and protest: an abnegation of a commitment to civil rights and feminism. Abstraction\, Color\, and Politics in the Early 1970s presents large-scale work by four leading American artists—Helen Frankenthaler\, Sam Gilliam\, Al Loving\, and Louise Nevelson—who chose abstraction as a means of expression within the intense political climate of the early 1970s.\n\nUMMA gratefully acknowledges the following donors for their generous support of this exhibition:\n\nLead Exhibition Sponsors: University of Michigan Office of the Provost\, Michigan Medicine\, and College of Literature\, Science\, and the Arts\n\nExhibition Endowment Donors:  Richard and Rosann Noel Endowment Fund\, Herbert W. and Susan L. Johe Endowment\, and Robert and Janet Miller Fund\n\nUniversity of Michigan Funding Partners: Institute for Research on Women and Gender\, School of Social Work\, Department of Political Science\, and Department of Women's Studies

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Abstraction\, Color\, and Politics:
DESCRIPTION:In the midst of the political and cultural upheavals of the 60s and 70s\, artists\, critics\, and the public grappled with the relationship between art\, politics\, race\, and feminism. During these decades\, the notion that abstraction was a purely formal and American art form\, concerned only with timeless themes disconnected from the present\, was met with increased skepticism. Women artists and artists of color began to actively and assertively explore abstraction’s possibilities. The artworks in Abstraction\, Color\, and Politics: The 1960s and 1970s demonstrate both radical and disarming changes in how artists worked and what they thought their art was about. Their new formal and intellectual strategies—seen here across large-scale and miniature work—dramatically transformed the practice of abstraction in the 1960s and 1970s in a politically shifting American landscape.\n\nUMMA gratefully acknowledges the following donors for their generous support:\n\nLead Exhibition Sponsors: University of Michigan Office of the Provost\, Michigan Medicine\, and College of Literature\, Science\, and the Arts\n\nExhibition Endowment Donors:  Richard and Rosann Noel Endowment Fund\, Herbert W. and Susan L. Johe Endowment\, and Robert and Janet Miller Fund\n\nUniversity of Michigan Funding Partners: Institute for Research on Women and Gender\, School of Social Work\, Department of Political Science\, and Department of Women's Studies

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Border Control: Traversing Horizons in Media Practice
DESCRIPTION:In September 2019\, the University of Michigan Penny W. Stamps School of Art & Design will host the New Media Caucus 2019 Symposium and Exhibition\, Border Control.  Symposium and exhibition events will take place in Ann Arbor at the Stamps School of Art and Design (2000 Bonisteel Blvd.) and Stamps Gallery (201 S. Division St.).\n\nExhibition Dates: September 20 - November 10\, 2019\nSymposium Dates: September 19 - 22\, 2019\nGuest Curator: Allison Collins\, Media Arts Curator\, Western Front\n\nCurated by Allison Collins in collaboration with Carrie Edinger and Srimoyee Mitra.\nIn partnership with the New Media Caucus \n\nHuman migration is a defining issue of the 21st century\, often calling into question the relevance\, role\, and responsibilities of national borders across the globe. As individuals seek refuge from geopolitical and environmental forces\, we become an increasingly globalized community. Demarcations of all types are simultaneously porous and closed\, defensive and receptive\, and seen in almost every facet of our existence. Border Control responds to these conditions with an open-ended question\, asking: “How has humanity made sense of the world in relation to borders and boundaries\, both physically and psychologically?” While positioned within (or outside of) defined spaces and identities\, human refusal of such literal definitions is paramount. Even while lines drawn have important consequences for lived reality\, the winds\, currents\, and natural energies of the Earth deny enclosures and definitions that politics and maps might suggest.\n\nDrawn from practices that are touched or driven by new media\, Border Control assembles works by artists who consider geographical contexts\, patterns of migration\, displacement\, and statelessness. Collectively\, they offer projects with subterfuge\, refusal\, and reconsideration of imposed state-sanctioned boundaries.\n\n \n\n

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Collection Ensemble
DESCRIPTION:Collection Ensemble presents the first major reinstallation of UMMA's iconic entry space in over a decade. It exchanges Alumni Memorial Hall's previous focus on European and American painting for a broad mix of American\, European\, African\, and Asian art from across media\, sampling the Museum's remarkable\, disparate holdings. The installation is organized into thematic and formal vignettes that respond to the concepts and ideas resonating from an extraordinary large-scale photograph of a vacant cathedral by contemporary German artist Candida Höfer. Featuring works of art by numerous famous and not-so-famous artists\, many of them artists of color and women—including Charles Alston\, Christo\, Theaster Gates\, Jenny Holzer\, Roni Horn\, Do-Ho Suh\, Kara Walker\, and others\, Collection Ensemble reimagines the collection not as a fixed entity with one set of meanings to be unearthed\, but instead as an active\, creative\, sometimes startling source of material and ideas\, open for debate and interpretation.\n\n

DESCRIPTION:Far from being frowned upon as uncreative\, in China\, Korea\, and Japan\, copying has long been considered a valuable practice. Through works of art spanning ancient to contemporary times\, Copies and Invention in East Asia challenges our understanding of originality\, and presents copying as an act of imaginative interpretation. The exhibition includes burial goods that conjure a world for the deceased\; Buddhist sculptures produced in multiples to amplify religious experience and meaning\; paintings in which a master’s brushstrokes are faithfully duplicated as a way of shaping the self\; and contemporary works that address multiplicity and duplication in the modern world.\n\nLead support is provided by the University of Michigan Office of the Provost\, Michigan Medicine\, Lieberthal-Rogel Center for Chinese Studies\, Center for Japanese Studies\, Nam Center for Korean Studies\, School of Information\, and College of Engineering.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:New at UMMA: Walter Oltmann
DESCRIPTION:Infant Skull II\, a woven “tapestry” made out of very fine aluminum wire\, only reveals its shape when seen from afar. Drawing inspiration from his country’s basketry traditions\, the South African artist Walter Oltmann (b. 1960) alternates densely layered sections with open spaces\, allowing the underlying surface of the work to show through. The skull that emerges is\, in a South African context\, evocative of the Cradle of Humankind—a series of caves outside Johannesburg\, where some of the oldest hominin fossils in the world have been found.\n \nThe work complements UMMA’s renowned and growing collection of historical and contemporary African art and reminds us of the central role of Africa in the history of humankind. The purchase was made possible thanks to the generosity of UMMA Director's Acquisition Committee.\n\nThis acquisition was made possible by the generosity of the UMMA Director's Acquisition Committee\, 2016.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Take Your Pick: Collecting Found Photographs
DESCRIPTION:Come help build our collection of “ordinary” American 20th-century photographs.\n \nTake Your Pick invites you—the Museum’s visitors—to select photographs for our permanent collection. What belongs in a permanent collection\, and why? Who and what should be represented\, and how should we decide? This exhibition considers these questions in regard to 1\,000 amateur photographs on loan from the private collection of Peter J. Cohen\, who has gathered more than 60\,000 snapshots while exploring flea markets in the United States and Europe over two decades. The images he has collected depict all aspects of daily life and reveal the dynamic histories of amateur photography. Such pictures have particular significance in the current digital age\, when it is much less common to make physical copies of personal photographs. They constitute important artifacts of twentieth-century visual culture and precedents for the photographs we still make today. You are invited to make your voice heard in the selection process by voting for the photographs that resonate most with you!  \n \nVote for your favorite pictures: Saturday\, September 21\, 2019 – Sunday\, January 12\, 2020 Final selections on view: Tuesday\, January 14 – Sunday\, February 23\, 2020\n\nSupport for this exhibition is provided by Cecilia and Mark Vonderheide and the University of Michigan Office of the Provost and Department of Film\, Television\, and Media.\n

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:Interpersonal Workplace Mistreatment: From Antecedents to Intervention
DESCRIPTION:From incivility and undermining\, to harassment and aggression\, researchers have documented the many ways in which people mistreat one another while on the job. Research shows that interpersonal workplace mistreatment is associated with harm to individual targets\, bystanders\, and organizations. However\, less scholarship is focused on understanding the antecedents to workplace mistreatment and ways to intervene - why it happens and what to do about it. This talk will review research my colleagues and I have done to help understand ways to counter workplace mistreatment and build respectful workplaces\, as well as research opportunities in this area of organizational studies.

SUMMARY:Presentation:CCN Forum:  Age-related declines in neural distinctiveness and variability: Cause and Consequences
DESCRIPTION:Brief Abstract: Normal aging is typically associated with a pervasive decline in cognitive\, motor and sensory function even in absence of pathology. Nevertheless\, there are large individual differences in these declines: some older adults experience severe cognitive declines that impact their daily living and often are early markers of pathology\, while others experience only mild impairments and lead a relatively healthy life. Understanding the neural bases of individual differences during aging is imperative in designing future interventions to slow\, or even reverse some age-related cognitive impairments. My talk will focus on the cause and consequences of two such neural changes: age-related decline in neural distinctiveness and brain signal variability.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:Smith Lecture: Mineral Hydration and Microbial Activity Within Subsurface Ultramafic Rocks
DESCRIPTION:Ultramafic rocks are highly unstable in the presence of fluids\, giving rise to mineral hydration and carbonation reactions that strongly shape rock properties\, the chemical evolution of waters\, and the availability of chemical energy required to sustain microbial metabolism.    Several new conceptual models exist for peridotite-hosted life on Earth and other rocky bodies in our solar system\, such as Europa\, Enceladus and Mars.  However\, there are many questions regarding how\, when and where organisms can harness the energy derived from peridotite/water interactions\, and what products of biological activity might be produced\, in terms of new minerals\, organic compounds and gases.   In this talk\, I will present multidisciplinary efforts designed to assess the key (bio)geochemical processes occurring during modern water/rock interaction in the Samail ophiolite\, Oman\, and the strategies being used to determine controls on the distribution\, composition and function of the subsurface peridotite-hosted biosphere.   In particular\, I will focus on the mineral transformations that give rise to hydrogen production at low-temperatures\, followed by the evidence for biological methane production\, even under extreme conditions of carbon and energy limitation.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:Linguistics Colloquium
DESCRIPTION:Emily Atkinson\, Postdoctoral Research Fellow for the Weinberg Institute of Cognitive Science\, will speak on \"Learning to process sentences: Insights from filler-gap dependencies & syntactic priming.\"\n\nAbstract\n \nThe development of the sentence processing mechanisms has largely been ignored because a major assumption of many in the field is that basic sentence processing mechanisms are innate. Seminal work on children’s processing of garden path sentences supported this claim by demonstrating that children – like adults – incrementally interpret sentences\, but struggle with reanalysis. However\, more recent research has begun to provide counter evidence to this claim by examining new structures. If these mechanisms are not innate\, how do children learn to process sentences like adults? I will address these issues by providing evidence that these long held beliefs about children’s sentence processing do not hold in all cases\, using the processing of filler-gap dependencies as the main example\, and to discuss the possibility that syntactic priming may serve as a possible learning mechanism for adult-like processing behaviors.

SUMMARY:Conference / Symposium:NERS Colloquium: Jeremy T. Busby\, Oak Ridge National Laboratory
DESCRIPTION:Dr. Busby is the Division Director for the Reactor and Nuclear Systems Division in the Nuclear Science and Engineering Directorate at Oak Ridge National Laboratory. His contributions range from light water reactors to sodium reactors and space reactor systems as well as research in support of the ITER project. Dr. Busby is the recipient of the 2019 NERS Alumni Merit Award.\n\n\nHis research is focused on materials performance and development of materials for nuclear reactor applications. While at ORNL\, he has participated in materials research efforts for space reactors\, fusion machines\, advanced fast reactors\, and light water reactors.  Ultimately\, his research will enable the development of operating criteria for structural materials in a variety of adverse environments that will allow for design and operation of safe\, reliable\, and cost-effective nuclear systems.\n\nDr. Busby was the lead for the Materials Aging and Degradation Pathway for the DOE – Office of Nuclear Energy Light Water Reactor Sustainability Research and Development program from 2009 to 2015.  This program was charged with supporting both the nuclear industry and regulatory bodies in a careful evaluation of the potential for power plant life extension beyond the 60-year performance period. Dr. Busby was responsible for research spanning reactor core internals\, pressure vessel materials\, piping\, cabling and concrete.  A particular highlight was his leadership in the development of a detailed expert panel analysis of gaps and research needs for operating power plants\, called the “Expanded Materials Degradation Assessment”. This was published in 2013 as a Nuclear Regulatory Commission document and included input from four expert panels comprised of 40+ world experts from academia\, laboratories\, regulators\, and industry. It is still utilized today as a roadmap for research priority planning.  He also led the Nuclear Energy Enabling Technologies Materials Cross-cut effort in addition to participation in several nuclear industry-sponsored research tasks. \n\nAs PI for the DOE Office of Science ITER Program\, he led an investigation into the feasibility of utilizing an innovative cast austenitic stainless steel (SS) for the first wall structure of the international ITER project.  The ORNL team utilized advanced computational thermodynamics modeling to successfully devise a cast SS within the internationally approved chemical composition limits for the ITER stainless steel with a tensile strength comparable to wrought stainless steel (>50% improvement in strength over the cast stainless steel previously developed by industry)\, without compromising other properties.  In 2010\, Dr. Busby received the Presidential Early Career Award for Science and Engineering following this effort for “excellence in research leading to the development of high performance cast stainless steels\, a critical part of the U.S. Contributions to ITER project\, and for his mentoring of students both as an Adjunct Assistant Professor at the University of Michigan and at ORNL.”  \n\nIn 2011\, he was awarded a Secretary of Energy Achievement Awards for contributions to DOE’s response to Fukushima.  The American Nuclear Society presented Dr. Busby with the Landis Young Member Achievement award in 2006 and\, in 2007 he received the ORNL Early Career Award for Engineering Accomplishment for his leadership in the cast stainless steel effort.  \n\nHe is an Adjunct Assistant Professor of Nuclear Engineering and Radiological Sciences at the University of Michigan and has developed and taught his own graduate level course in materials degradation and performance for fission and fusion reactors. He also is heavily involved in the leadership of many professional society activities.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:Ambient Thickness: Atmospheres of the Climate Emergency
DESCRIPTION:In this presentation\, Prof. Gordillo argues that the concept of “ambient thickness” can help us analyze the atmospheric intensities that in the form of heatwaves\, droughts\, dust storms\, forest fires\, or toxic smells are defining contemporary experiences of global warming and environmental ruination. Engaging with literatures on materiality\, the nonhuman\, affect\, weather/climate\, and atmospheres\, Gordillo's argument builds from campesino experiences of deforestation\, wind\, fumigation\, and heatwaves in northern Argentina and from a comparative phenomenology of atmospheric disruptions elsewhere in the world. Gordillo shows that the atmosphere can “thicken” in very different ways and that this density is experienced unevenly depending on class\, racial\, gender\, and cultural backgrounds.Gordillo also highlight that the unsettling thickening of the air created by events such as heatwaves or forest fires brings to light the nonhuman materiality of the planet’s terrain and the urgency of radical change to confront the climate emergency.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:CREES Distinguished Lecture. From the Soviet Gulag to Franco’s Spain: Historical Fiction’s Power for Global Dialogue
DESCRIPTION:4-5 pm: Meet the author\, signed books available for purchase\n5:30-6:45 pm: CREES Distinguished Lecture\n7 pm: Screening of \"Ashes in the Snow\" \n\nWhat determines how history is preserved and recalled? Why do some stories become part of the collective consciousness while others remain untold?\n\nIn this lecture\, Sepetys will examine the fragile tension between history and memory as well as story and historical fiction as a framework for human understanding. She will discuss the power of family narrative and witness testimony and her approach for creating fiction from facts. Published in over sixty countries\, Sepetys will present the varying global interpretations and teaching methods of the history contained in her books on World War II and its aftermath for Lithuanians\, Poles\, and Germans\, to illustrate how the historical fiction genre —and the human dynamics surrounding historical events—might be used to facilitate awareness\, dialogue\, and progress.   \n   \nThe lecture will be followed by a screening of “Ashes in the Snow\,” Marius A. Markevicius\, director (98 min.\, 2018)\, based on the novel \"Between Shades of Gray\,\" by Ruta Sepetys. https://www.michtheater.org/show/ashes-in-the-snow/\n\nRuta Sepetys (Rūta Šepetys) is an internationally acclaimed\, #1 New York Times bestselling author of historical fiction published in over sixty countries and forty languages. Sepetys is considered a “crossover” novelist as her books are read by both students and adults worldwide. Winner of the Carnegie Medal\, Ruta is renowned for giving voice to underrepresented history and those who experienced it. Her books have won or been shortlisted for over forty book prizes\, are included on over thirty state reading lists\, and are currently in development for film and television.\n\nRuta is the daughter of a Lithuanian refugee. Born in Michigan\, she was raised in a family of artists\, readers\, and music lovers. Ruta is passionate about the power of history and story to foster global dialogue and connectivity. She has been invited to present at NATO\, European Parliament\, the U.S. Capitol\, the Library of Congress\, and Embassies worldwide. She was awarded The Rockefeller Foundation’s prestigious Bellagio Fellowship for her studies on human resilience. The New York Times Book Review declared\, “Ruta Sepetys acts as champion of the interstitial people so often ignored—whole populations lost in the cracks of history.”\n\nRuta was bestowed the Cross of the Knight by the President of Lithuania for her contributions to education and memory preservation and was recently honored with a postage stamp containing her image. She is extremely proud to be of Baltic heritage\, even if that means she has a name no one can pronounce.\n\nRuta lives with her family in the hills of Tennessee.\n\nIf you are a person with a disability who requires an accommodation to attend this event\, please reach out to us at weisercenter@umich.edu at least 2 weeks in advance of this event. Please be aware that advance notice is necessary as some accommodations may require more time for the university to arrange.

SUMMARY:Reception / Open House:Opening Reception: WiAn: White Garden With White Noise
DESCRIPTION:October 5 - November 2\, 2019\nOpening Reception: Friday\, October 4\, 6-8 pm\nCenter Galleries at the College for Creative Studies\, Detroit\n\nWiAn: White Garden With White Noise is co-presented by Center Galleries and the Penny W. Stamps School of Art & Design\, with support from the Nam Center for Korean Studies at the University of Michigan.\n\nThrough visually and auditorily immersive installation\, artist JuYeon Kim recognizes\, illuminates\, and honors the unimaginable suffering and enduring spirit of the Korean “comfort women” (wianbu in Korean) who were forced into sex slavery by the Japanese military during World War II.\n\nIt is estimated over 200\,000 Korean women fell prey to Japanese soldiers during this time period\, many were as young as 14 years old. The girls and women\, often from rural villages\, were enslaved in a variety of ways\, including kidnapping\, coercion\, or being convinced with lies of paid factory work during desperate times of famine. Victims of forced sterilization\, many died during their time of enslavement. Those who survived often did not return home after the war for fear of stigma and rejection. For much of history\, their story has remained untold.\n\nThrough WiAn\, Kim invites viewers to join her in the recognition of this atrocity — and in providing comfort to the souls of these women. Through meditative poetry\, a soundscape by classical music composer George Tsontakis\, and sculptural objects\, Kim creates a physical space for the souls of these women to be honored\, to be comforted\, to let go of the past\, and to move forward. \n\nVisitors to the exhibition encounter an ethereal white gardenscape of transparent and opaque fictitious flora\, comprised of many different plant specimens. White\, the traditional color for Korean funerals\, returns the women to their rightful purity and innocence. At the center of the garden\, two palanquins engraved with original poetry invite the souls of the wianbu to take rest from their arduous journey to be carried like royalty\, to receive unequivocal compassion and kindness. A transparent door and trellis\, also engraved with original poetry\, invites souls to move lightly\, unburdened\, to the next chapter of being.\n\nIn a time when the #metoo movement has brought about a cultural reckoning\, Kim’s work also provides comfort\, strength\, and a space of contemplation for the living\, to all who have suffered and still suffer at the hands of systemic power inequity.\n\nJuYeon Kim is the 2019 Roman J. Witt Artist in Residence at the Penny W. Stamps School of Art & Design at the University of Michigan. \n\n

SUMMARY:Film Screening:Dance Screening: The Process of Remembering
DESCRIPTION:\"The Process of Remembering\" is a short film by Alexis Saenz about remembering\, learning and understanding her identity in this world. Eight versions of Saenz entwine together in the film\, showing stages she has moved through to get to the present. This film took one year to create and was a collaboration with 34 different artists. The event includes a screening of the 13-minute film\, and immersive live performance that stems from the work\, a photo series accompanying the film\, and a Q&A seminar to follow. \n\nSince creating \"The Process of Remembering\"\, Saenz comments on having continued to realize and learn more and more from the process. She states\, \"I hope that people watching the film will be inspired to remember who they are and continue going through their processes with fortitude. As long as I am breathing and the Creator continues to challenge me in this life I will continue to overcome\, I will speak my truth\, seek the truth and heal through my art. We all must.\"\n\nThe Process of Remembering Tour includes different elements\, including portions of a workshop entitled 'Mi Vida Su Vida' ( https://indigenousyouth.org/voices/mi-vida-su-vida-health-education)\, aimed at dismantling belief systems and developing tools for better understanding of oneself and the healing process. Saenz states: \"My hopes for each city are to learn about the importance of mind\, body\, spirit connection and self-love.\"

SUMMARY:Performance:Sense and Sensibility
DESCRIPTION:Adapted by Kate Hamill. \nBased on the novel by Jane Austen. \nDirected by Priscilla Lindsay. \n\nWhen sisters Elinor and Marianne Dashwood are left financially destitute by their father’s sudden passing\, they must navigate the perilous social circles in their new\, vulnerable status. As potential suitors come and go\, so do their hopes for true love. Full of gossip\, humor\, and heart-felt moments\, this classic story examines the effects of societal pressures on love and life. The play Sense and Sensibility premiered in 2014 at New York City’s Bedlam Theater Company\, returning for another\, longer run in 2016\, and was named The New York Times Critic’s Pick for both years. The New York Times calls Sense and Sensibility a “bouncy\, jaunty take on Austen…[that] remains remarkably true to the values and priorities of its source.”

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Civitates Orbis Terrarum: Braun & Hogenberg’s Evolving World
DESCRIPTION:Civitates Orbis Terrarum (Cities of the World)\, the first standardized city atlas\, contains over 540 maps and views between its six volumes. First published in 1572 by Georg Braun (1541-1622) and Frans Hogenberg (1535-1590)\, Civitates was first intended as a companion to Ortelius’s Theatrum Orbis Terrarum. New editions of the city atlas continued to be printed through 1617. Hogenberg\, one of the most prolific engravers of the time\, was joined by many other engravers in creating the Civitates. Braun edited the work and provided the descriptions of the cities on the verso of each plate. This exhibit contains 18 works from the Civitates\, including many from the Clark Library’s holdings. Also included are reproductions of large panoramas Amsterdam\, London\, and St. Petersburg that reflect the evolution of city mapping through the 17th and 18th centuries.

The pieces are constructed by gluing many layers of paper over wire armatures. When dry\, the sculptures are painted in an often splashy\, sketchy style. Wirtz’ silly animal works are what the artist is best known for\, and they take shape in his Goetzville\, Michigan studio.\n\nGifts of Art Gallery – University Hospital Main Corridor\, Floor 2\n1500 E.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Oil on Water: Painting on Linen
DESCRIPTION:Danielle Eubank is an award-winning artist who has been on four international sailing expeditions and painted every ocean on the planet to raise awareness about the oceans and climate change. Her large paintings are emotive abstract portraits of specific bodies of water. The Oil on Water exhibition features Eubank’s oil on linen paintings of the Arctic Ocean and the Mediterranean Sea. She creates patterns within patterns\, representing vertical stacks of rhythms. The undulating forms\, such as water ripples\, oil slicks\, and refuse\, combined with the memories that water evokes\, makes her work eye-opening\, yet soothing and sensual. \n\nGifts of Art Gallery – University Hospital Main Lobby\, Floor 1                                                                       \n1500 E.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Ваза: Copper & Brass Vessels
DESCRIPTION:Victoria (Vika) Bulgakova grew up in Ukraine\, a part of the former Soviet Union. She immigrated to the U.S. in 1994\, and for the next 22 years\, New York became her home. In 2016\, she moved to Michigan to pursue an MFA at Cranbrook Academy of Art. She found the raw beauty of Detroit inspiring and kept her metalsmithing studio practice in the city. The copper and brass vessels in her Ваза series and other included works are a meditation on fluidity of memories: their ability to shift from reflection to re-invention over time. Each vessel potentially holds something within its boundaries\, whether tangible or not. \n\nGifts of Art Gallery – Taubman Health Center North Lobby\, Floor 1\n1500 E.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Other Crusoes\, Other Islands: Mapping a Complex Legacy
DESCRIPTION:On the 300th anniversary of the publication of The Life and Surprising Adventures of Robinson Crusoe\, of York\, Mariner\, this exhibit interrogates the troubled legacy of Daniel Defoe’s seminal English novel. It also explores how creators have pushed back against the colonialist\, hyper-masculine\, and racist ethos of the text by using the castaway narrative to explore self-sufficiency\, otherness\, and the role of gendered and racialized ideas in constructing the self.\n\nThis novel of shipwreck\, survival\, and rescue has become a cultural touchstone. Today\, many people who haven’t read the novel still feel familiar with key plot elements\, Robinson Crusoe\, and Friday. Yet\, there is less familiarity with how both the original text and many of the adaptations of Robinson Crusoe have fed into and reinforced narratives of imperialism and racism. Drawing on the Hubbard Collection of Imaginary Voyages - one of the world’s most comprehensive collections of editions\, translations\, adaptations\, and spin-offs of Robinson Crusoe - Other Crusoes\, Other Islands seeks to understand how readers and writers have engaged with the story since its initial publication in 1719.\n\nContent Advisory: Please be aware that some items in this exhibit feature racist imagery and potentially painful content. Although Robinson Crusoe is often treated as children’s literature and this exhibit includes children’s books and board games\, it is not an exhibit geared towards children and reflects the significant shifts over time in ideas about what is appropriate for children.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Nature a Moment: Visions of the World from Three Korean-American Artists
DESCRIPTION:Three Chicago-area Korean-American artists render deeply personal interpretations of the natural world in the exhibit “Nature a Moment” at Matthaei Botanical Gardens. Using woodcut\, painting on canvas\, and mixed media\, Linda Hyong\, Sung Eun Hong\, and Seong Ok Lee explore the world of flowers\, gardens\, and nature in vivid works that slow time to a fleeting present moment.\n\nLinda Hyong is a University of Michigan alumna and former teaching assistant in the U-M Stamps School of Art & Design. She draws her inspiration from Claude Monet’s water lily garden in France to create her own modern interpretation of impressionism. Seong Ok Lee is inspired by flowers\, which she believes are the most beautiful forms in nature. In her dream-like\, nearly abstract paintings\, Sung Eun Hong communicates her vision of what she calls “pure dreams and fantasy.”\n\nExhibit runs September 14 through November 15\, 2019 at the\n\nUniversity of Michigan Matthaei Botanical Gardens\, 1800 N. Dixboro Rd.\, Ann Arbor. Free.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Strengths of Refugees and Their Community
DESCRIPTION:Refugees have been at the forefront of political discussion in the United States as the Syrian crisis escalates and xenophobia heightens. Much has been said regarding these refugees\, but all too often the voices of refugees themselves are left out of the conversation.\n\nThis exhibit uses the data collected from a Photovoice project\, combining photography and transcriptions from groups discussions with adolescent refugees to better understand the lived experiences of adolescent refugees. The gallery highlights five main themes that were discussed: Stability and Security\, Interpersonal Difficulties\, Rooting Factors\, Personal Growth\, and Contribution.\n\n“I wish I could help out people… Imma give them everything. Because they are my people\, I have to save my people.” -Alex

SUMMARY:Exhibition:WiAn: White Garden With White Noise
DESCRIPTION:October 5 - November 2\, 2019\nOpening Reception: Friday\, October 4\, 6-8 pm\nCenter Galleries at the College for Creative Studies\, Detroit\n\nWiAn: White Garden With White Noise is co-presented by Center Galleries and the Penny W. Stamps School of Art & Design\, with support from the Nam Center for Korean Studies at the University of Michigan.\n\nThrough visually and auditorily immersive installation\, artist JuYeon Kim recognizes\, illuminates\, and honors the unimaginable suffering and enduring spirit of the Korean “comfort women” (wianbu in Korean) who were forced into sex slavery by the Japanese military during World War II.\n\nIt is estimated over 200\,000 Korean women fell prey to Japanese soldiers during this time period\, many were as young as 14 years old. The girls and women\, often from rural villages\, were enslaved in a variety of ways\, including kidnapping\, coercion\, or being convinced with lies of paid factory work during desperate times of famine. Victims of forced sterilization\, many died during their time of enslavement. Those who survived often did not return home after the war for fear of stigma and rejection. For much of history\, their story has remained untold.\n\nThrough WiAn\, Kim invites viewers to join her in the recognition of this atrocity — and in providing comfort to the souls of these women. Through meditative poetry\, a soundscape by classical music composer George Tsontakis\, and sculptural objects\, Kim creates a physical space for the souls of these women to be honored\, to be comforted\, to let go of the past\, and to move forward. \n\nVisitors to the exhibition encounter an ethereal white gardenscape of transparent and opaque fictitious flora\, comprised of many different plant specimens. White\, the traditional color for Korean funerals\, returns the women to their rightful purity and innocence. At the center of the garden\, two palanquins engraved with original poetry invite the souls of the wianbu to take rest from their arduous journey to be carried like royalty\, to receive unequivocal compassion and kindness. A transparent door and trellis\, also engraved with original poetry\, invites souls to move lightly\, unburdened\, to the next chapter of being.\n\nIn a time when the #metoo movement has brought about a cultural reckoning\, Kim’s work also provides comfort\, strength\, and a space of contemplation for the living\, to all who have suffered and still suffer at the hands of systemic power inequity.\n\nJuYeon Kim is the 2019 Roman J. Witt Artist in Residence at the Penny W. Stamps School of Art & Design at the University of Michigan. \n\n

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Abstraction\, Color\, and Politics in the Early 1970s
DESCRIPTION:Can abstract art be about politics? In the early 1970s\, that question was hotly debated as artists\, critics\, and the public grappled with the relationship between art\, politics\, race\, and feminism. Many of those debates centered on bringing to light the roles that gender and race played in how “great modern art” was defined and assessed\, and on employing art to advance civil rights. Within this discourse\, abstraction had an especially fraught role. To many\, the decision by women artists and artists of color  to make abstract art seemed to represent a retreat from politics and protest: an abnegation of a commitment to civil rights and feminism. Abstraction\, Color\, and Politics in the Early 1970s presents large-scale work by four leading American artists—Helen Frankenthaler\, Sam Gilliam\, Al Loving\, and Louise Nevelson—who chose abstraction as a means of expression within the intense political climate of the early 1970s.\n\nUMMA gratefully acknowledges the following donors for their generous support of this exhibition:\n\nLead Exhibition Sponsors: University of Michigan Office of the Provost\, Michigan Medicine\, and College of Literature\, Science\, and the Arts\n\nExhibition Endowment Donors:  Richard and Rosann Noel Endowment Fund\, Herbert W. and Susan L. Johe Endowment\, and Robert and Janet Miller Fund\n\nUniversity of Michigan Funding Partners: Institute for Research on Women and Gender\, School of Social Work\, Department of Political Science\, and Department of Women's Studies

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Abstraction\, Color\, and Politics:
DESCRIPTION:In the midst of the political and cultural upheavals of the 60s and 70s\, artists\, critics\, and the public grappled with the relationship between art\, politics\, race\, and feminism. During these decades\, the notion that abstraction was a purely formal and American art form\, concerned only with timeless themes disconnected from the present\, was met with increased skepticism. Women artists and artists of color began to actively and assertively explore abstraction’s possibilities. The artworks in Abstraction\, Color\, and Politics: The 1960s and 1970s demonstrate both radical and disarming changes in how artists worked and what they thought their art was about. Their new formal and intellectual strategies—seen here across large-scale and miniature work—dramatically transformed the practice of abstraction in the 1960s and 1970s in a politically shifting American landscape.\n\nUMMA gratefully acknowledges the following donors for their generous support:\n\nLead Exhibition Sponsors: University of Michigan Office of the Provost\, Michigan Medicine\, and College of Literature\, Science\, and the Arts\n\nExhibition Endowment Donors:  Richard and Rosann Noel Endowment Fund\, Herbert W. and Susan L. Johe Endowment\, and Robert and Janet Miller Fund\n\nUniversity of Michigan Funding Partners: Institute for Research on Women and Gender\, School of Social Work\, Department of Political Science\, and Department of Women's Studies

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Border Control: Traversing Horizons in Media Practice
DESCRIPTION:In September 2019\, the University of Michigan Penny W. Stamps School of Art & Design will host the New Media Caucus 2019 Symposium and Exhibition\, Border Control.  Symposium and exhibition events will take place in Ann Arbor at the Stamps School of Art and Design (2000 Bonisteel Blvd.) and Stamps Gallery (201 S. Division St.).\n\nExhibition Dates: September 20 - November 10\, 2019\nSymposium Dates: September 19 - 22\, 2019\nGuest Curator: Allison Collins\, Media Arts Curator\, Western Front\n\nCurated by Allison Collins in collaboration with Carrie Edinger and Srimoyee Mitra.\nIn partnership with the New Media Caucus \n\nHuman migration is a defining issue of the 21st century\, often calling into question the relevance\, role\, and responsibilities of national borders across the globe. As individuals seek refuge from geopolitical and environmental forces\, we become an increasingly globalized community. Demarcations of all types are simultaneously porous and closed\, defensive and receptive\, and seen in almost every facet of our existence. Border Control responds to these conditions with an open-ended question\, asking: “How has humanity made sense of the world in relation to borders and boundaries\, both physically and psychologically?” While positioned within (or outside of) defined spaces and identities\, human refusal of such literal definitions is paramount. Even while lines drawn have important consequences for lived reality\, the winds\, currents\, and natural energies of the Earth deny enclosures and definitions that politics and maps might suggest.\n\nDrawn from practices that are touched or driven by new media\, Border Control assembles works by artists who consider geographical contexts\, patterns of migration\, displacement\, and statelessness. Collectively\, they offer projects with subterfuge\, refusal\, and reconsideration of imposed state-sanctioned boundaries.\n\n \n\n

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Collection Ensemble
DESCRIPTION:Collection Ensemble presents the first major reinstallation of UMMA's iconic entry space in over a decade. It exchanges Alumni Memorial Hall's previous focus on European and American painting for a broad mix of American\, European\, African\, and Asian art from across media\, sampling the Museum's remarkable\, disparate holdings. The installation is organized into thematic and formal vignettes that respond to the concepts and ideas resonating from an extraordinary large-scale photograph of a vacant cathedral by contemporary German artist Candida Höfer. Featuring works of art by numerous famous and not-so-famous artists\, many of them artists of color and women—including Charles Alston\, Christo\, Theaster Gates\, Jenny Holzer\, Roni Horn\, Do-Ho Suh\, Kara Walker\, and others\, Collection Ensemble reimagines the collection not as a fixed entity with one set of meanings to be unearthed\, but instead as an active\, creative\, sometimes startling source of material and ideas\, open for debate and interpretation.\n\n

SUMMARY:Exhibition:New at UMMA: Walter Oltmann
DESCRIPTION:Infant Skull II\, a woven “tapestry” made out of very fine aluminum wire\, only reveals its shape when seen from afar. Drawing inspiration from his country’s basketry traditions\, the South African artist Walter Oltmann (b. 1960) alternates densely layered sections with open spaces\, allowing the underlying surface of the work to show through. The skull that emerges is\, in a South African context\, evocative of the Cradle of Humankind—a series of caves outside Johannesburg\, where some of the oldest hominin fossils in the world have been found.\n \nThe work complements UMMA’s renowned and growing collection of historical and contemporary African art and reminds us of the central role of Africa in the history of humankind. The purchase was made possible thanks to the generosity of UMMA Director's Acquisition Committee.\n\nThis acquisition was made possible by the generosity of the UMMA Director's Acquisition Committee\, 2016.

SUMMARY:Presentation:Science Forum Demo: Counting Cells
DESCRIPTION:Join us in the Science Forum for 15-20 minute engaging science demonstrations that will help you see the world around you in a whole new way. Demonstrations are appropriate for visitors ages 5 and above. \n\nThe human body is made of more than 37 trillion cells. Most of them need to be replaced every couple of months\, weeks\, or sometimes in the course of only a few days. Our cells grow and divide constantly to get this massive job done. But how do cells replicate themselves? How do things move in\, out\, and around the cell\, and into new cells? Join us as we explore how our bodies carry out this massive process. We will learn about cell structure and division and observe cells up-close and in action! Funded by the National Science Foundation.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Take Your Pick: Collecting Found Photographs
DESCRIPTION:Come help build our collection of “ordinary” American 20th-century photographs.\n \nTake Your Pick invites you—the Museum’s visitors—to select photographs for our permanent collection. What belongs in a permanent collection\, and why? Who and what should be represented\, and how should we decide? This exhibition considers these questions in regard to 1\,000 amateur photographs on loan from the private collection of Peter J. Cohen\, who has gathered more than 60\,000 snapshots while exploring flea markets in the United States and Europe over two decades. The images he has collected depict all aspects of daily life and reveal the dynamic histories of amateur photography. Such pictures have particular significance in the current digital age\, when it is much less common to make physical copies of personal photographs. They constitute important artifacts of twentieth-century visual culture and precedents for the photographs we still make today. You are invited to make your voice heard in the selection process by voting for the photographs that resonate most with you!  \n \nVote for your favorite pictures: Saturday\, September 21\, 2019 – Sunday\, January 12\, 2020 Final selections on view: Tuesday\, January 14 – Sunday\, February 23\, 2020\n\nSupport for this exhibition is provided by Cecilia and Mark Vonderheide and the University of Michigan Office of the Provost and Department of Film\, Television\, and Media.\n

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Exhibition | Graffiti as Devotion along the Nile: El-Kurru\, Sudan
DESCRIPTION:Ancient graffiti provide a unique glimpse into the lives of individuals in antiquity. Religious devotion in ancient Kush (a region located in modern-day northern Sudan)\, involved pilgrimage and leaving informal marks on temples\, pyramids\, and other monumental structures. These graffiti are found in temples throughout the later (“Meroitic”) period of Kush\, when it bordered Roman Egypt. They represent one of the few direct traces of the devotional practices of private people in Kush and hint at individuals’ thoughts\, values\, and daily lives. This exhibition explores the times and places in which Kushite graffiti were inscribed through photos\, text\, and interactive media presentations. At the heart of the show are the hundreds of Meroitic graffiti recently discovered in a rock-cut temple by the Kelsey expedition to El-Kurru in northern Sudan.\n\nCurators: Geoff Emberling and Suzanne Davis\n\nView the online exhibition:\nhttp://exhibitions.kelsey.lsa.umich.edu/graffiti-el-kurru/

SUMMARY:Performance:Sense and Sensibility
DESCRIPTION:Adapted by Kate Hamill. \nBased on the novel by Jane Austen. \nDirected by Priscilla Lindsay. \n\nWhen sisters Elinor and Marianne Dashwood are left financially destitute by their father’s sudden passing\, they must navigate the perilous social circles in their new\, vulnerable status. As potential suitors come and go\, so do their hopes for true love. Full of gossip\, humor\, and heart-felt moments\, this classic story examines the effects of societal pressures on love and life. The play Sense and Sensibility premiered in 2014 at New York City’s Bedlam Theater Company\, returning for another\, longer run in 2016\, and was named The New York Times Critic’s Pick for both years. The New York Times calls Sense and Sensibility a “bouncy\, jaunty take on Austen…[that] remains remarkably true to the values and priorities of its source.”
