Its youth group organizers aimed to bolster Palestinian unity across the systemic barriers — colonial divides\, military checkpoints\, walls\, etc. — that fragment the lives of people living in Palestine. \n\nSouq Stories: Gaza Lives brings us to present-day Gaza\, sharing the stories of\, and images captured by\, young journalists and photographers who have continued to document the realities of life in Palestine.

Unlike previous U-M Library exhibits that focused on the artist at work\, this display shows him in informal and familial environments\, revealing a depth and complexity of character that are often overshadowed by his fame and professional achievements. The photographs and documents displayed showcase a variety of emotional tones — warmth\, humor\, tenderness\, and passion. Candid and relaxed more than posed\, they are similar to most people's pictures in old family albums.\n\nCulled from the Orson Welles-Beatrice Welles materials that are part of the Mavericks & Makers collection within the U-M Library’s Special Collections Research Center\, each photo or letter tells a story of a connection Welles held dearly. The materials included are from two periods: the late 1920s and early 1930s\, when Welles was a teenager\, and the mid-1950s to early 1960s\, during the early years of his marriage to his third wife\, Paola Mori. \n\nIt should be noted that Welles’s personal life was messy at best. Other collections housed at U-M that include personal materials related to Welles document his first and second marriages\, including the Welles-Feder Collection and the Wilson-Welles Collection. The items on display here were saved by his third and final child\, Beatrice Welles\, and reflect her childhood memories of her parents.\n\nThe exhibit is available during Hatcher Gallery Exhibit Room hours (https://umlib.us/hatchergalleryexhibits).

Even if all emissions ceased tomorrow\, atmospheric CO2 levels are already dangerously high and the climate would keep warming before it eventually stabilizes. We have to reduce or “capture” legacy CO2 to avert disaster. As the International Panel on Climate Change stated\, the *only* way we can meet our climate goal is to use carbon capture in our climate change fighting tool kit. \n\nMany of the products that we use every day are made with carbon. Treating legacy CO2 as a resource with economic value rather than a pollutant allows us to generate revenue while also fighting climate change. \n\nHowever\, not all uses or types of captured CO2 are equal in terms of environmental or economic benefits. This exhibit includes a video game that helps explain the pros and cons associated with different methods and applications of carbon capture. \n\nAdditionally\, it also provides examples of two types of carbon removal\, an interactive block activity\, and sample products made from captured CO2.

Make Yourself At Home.\n \nA Gathering brings together the newest works of art to enter UMMA’s collection — many on display here for the first time. \n \nAs a free\, public museum\, UMMA staff takes care of art for the benefit of the community and society at large. The works on view in this exhibition\, all brought into the Museum between 2019 and the present\, shows how institutions like UMMA are becoming more permeable to societal challenges\, and more nimble in responding to them in service to all in their communities. In this exhibition you will find works that reflect on how global migrations\, race\, gender\, and ecological change shape the way we engage with the world and inform our visions for the future.\n \nThis collection of artistic engagements with issues give us tools to envision who we want to be as individuals\, as a museum\, and as a society\, connected to one another across space and experience.\n \nSo gather here to take in these latest works of art brought here for you. Gather here to be engulfed in their forms and meanings\, to discuss their takes\, to learn\, to disagree. Gather to relax\, make a friend\, drink a coffee\, finish the daily Wordle. Gather to feel full\, to be moved and inspired by all the possible imaginations of what is yet to come.\n \nCurated by Félix Zamora Gómez Irving Stenn\, Jr. Fellow in Public Humanities & Museum Pedagogy\n\nLead support for this exhibition is provided by Lizzie and Jonathan Tisch\, the Richard and Rosann Noel Endowment\, and the University of Michigan Office of the Provost.\n  UID:107870-21817744@events.umich.edu URL:https://events.umich.edu/event/107870 CLASS:PUBLIC STATUS:CONFIRMED CATEGORIES:Art,Exhibition,Free,Humanities,Museum,Staff,UMMA LOCATION:Museum of Art - Lizzie and Jonathan Tisch Apse CONTACT: END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20240130T121548 DTSTART;TZID=America/Detroit:20240302T110000 DTEND;TZID=America/Detroit:20240302T200000 SUMMARY:Exhibition:Andrea Carlson Future Cache DESCRIPTION:In Andrea Carlson Future Cache\, a 40-foot-tall memorial wall towers over visitors\, commemorating the Cheboiganing (Burt Lake) Band of Ottawa and Chippewa Indians who were violently burned from their land in Northern Michigan on October 15\, 1900. Written across the walls above and around the memorial\, a statement proclaims Anishinaabe rights to the land we stand on: “You are on Anishinaabe Land.”  \n \nPresented alongside are paintings of imagined decolonized landscapes and a symbolic cache of provisions. Future Cache implicitly asks those who have benefited from the legacies of colonization to consider where they stand and where to go from here and seeks to foster a sense of belonging for displaced Indigenous peoples fighting for restitution.\n\nSpecial thanks to the Cheboiganing (Burt Lake) Band of Ottawa and Chippewa Indians\, Margaret Noodin\, and Richard A. Wiles\, for their consultation on the State Historical Marker text\; to Margaret Noodin and Michael Zimmerman\, Jr. for translating the gallery texts into Anishinaabemowin\; to James Horton and Fritz Swanson for generously producing the letterpress broadsides\; to colleagues at the U-M Biological Station\, U-M Museum of Anthropological Archaeology\, U-M Clements Library\, and U-M Clark Map Library.

DESCRIPTION:Care in Uncertain Times\n \nAs crises of public health\, economic instability\, authoritarian regimes\, racial injustice\, and climate change spread around the globe\, millions are experiencing distress\, conflict\, uncertainty\, and vulnerability. This troubling combination of experiences is nothing new for Cambodians. Between 1975-1979\, when the Khmer Rouge ruled Cambodia\, about a quarter of the country’s populations died of infectious diseases\, weapon wounds\, and malnutrition.\n \nThis exhibition brings together more than 80 works of art spanning a millennium to present how the visual culture of Cambodia and its diaspora has evolved in the face of cultural upheaval. Showcasing works from worldwide collections\, including those from some of the foremost members of the Cambodian contemporary art scene\, Angkor Complex allows viewers to encounter the still-fresh scars of a genocide and critically appreciate the strategies evolved to nurture resilience in trying times.\n\nLead support for this exhibition is provided by the U-M Office of the Provost\, U-M Office of the President\, National Endowment for the Arts\, Michigan Arts and Culture Council\, Eleanor Noyes Crumpacker Endowment Fund\, and U-M Ross School of Business.\n  UID:114750-21833440@events.umich.edu URL:https://events.umich.edu/event/114750 CLASS:PUBLIC STATUS:CONFIRMED CATEGORIES:Art,Culture,Exhibition,Museum,Public Health,UMMA LOCATION:Museum of Art - A.

Collected for each course are objects that address the nature of materiality\, time\, and human interaction in relation to our environments\, our wars\, our relationships\, and our eccentricities. \n \nWorking in collaboration with University faculty\, the works in this exhibition were selected for their capacity to provoke engagement with the guiding questions and themes of their specific courses\, while also offering students inspiration for research and art projects in their areas of study. The exhibition demonstrates some of the diverse and creative ways art plays a central role in learning across the disciplines. It also asks us to consider what we can learn from art objects across an infinite variety of specialties and subject matter.\n \nAs classes begin in Fall of 2021\, you’ll be able to use these pages to explore the collections designed for each course\, dive into the works themselves\, and hear from the professors and students about how they are engaging with art and objects in new ways. Who knows\, maybe you’ll learn something surprising along the way\, too.\n\nLead support for this exhibition is provided by the University of Michigan Office of the Provost\, Erica Gervais Pappendick and Ted Pappendick\, and the Eleanor Noyes Crumpacker Endowment Fund\, and the Oakriver Foundation.\n  UID:86001-21795825@events.umich.edu URL:https://events.umich.edu/event/86001 CLASS:PUBLIC STATUS:CONFIRMED CATEGORIES:Art,Exhibition,Faculty,Museum,Nature,Research,UMMA LOCATION:Museum of Art - Eleanor Noyes Crumpacker Gallery CONTACT: END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20240130T121551 DTSTART;TZID=America/Detroit:20240302T110000 DTEND;TZID=America/Detroit:20240302T200000 SUMMARY:Exhibition:Unsettling Histories: Legacies of Slavery and Colonialism DESCRIPTION:Organized as a response to the Museum’s recent acquisition of Titus Kaphar’s Flay (James Madison)\, this upcoming reinstallation of one of our most prominent gallery spaces forces us to grapple with our collection of European and American art\, 1650-1850.\n \nIn recent times\, growing public awareness of the continued reverberations of the legacy of slavery and colonization has challenged museums to examine the uncomfortable histories contained in our collections\, and challenged the public to probe the choices we make about those stories. Choices about which artists you see in our galleries\, choices about what relevant facts we share about the works\, and choices about what - out of an infinite number of options - we don’t say about them.\n \nPieces in this exhibition were made at a time when the world came to be shaped by the ideologies of colonial expansion and Western domination. And yet\, that history and the stories of those marginalized do not readily appear in the still lives and portraits on display here. By grappling with what is visible and what remains hidden\, we are forced to examine whose stories and histories are prioritized and why.  \n \nIn this online exhibition\, you can explore our efforts to deeply question the Museum’s collection and our own past complicity in favoring colonial voices. In the Museum gallery\, which will open in early 2021\, you’ll be able to experience the changes we’re making to the physical space to highlight a more honest version of European and American history. \n \nBy challenging our own practice\, and continuing to add to what we know and what we write about the works we display\, UMMA tells a more complex and more complete story of this nation - one that unsettles\, and fails to settle for\, simple narratives. \n \n“Invisible things are not necessarily ‘not there’.... Certain absences are so stressed\, so ornate\, so planned\, they call attention to themselves\; arrest us with intentionality and purpose\, like neighborhoods that are defined by the population held away from them.” \n \n— Toni Morrison\n\nLead support for Unsettling Histories: Legacies of Slavery and Colonialism is provided by the University of Michigan Office of the Provost\, the U-M Arts Initiative\, and the Susan and Richard Gutow Endowed Fund.\n  UID:84303-21621223@events.umich.edu URL:https://events.umich.edu/event/84303 CLASS:PUBLIC STATUS:CONFIRMED CATEGORIES:Art,European,Exhibition,History,Museum,UMMA LOCATION:Museum of Art - European and American Decorative Art CONTACT: END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20240405T192228 DTSTART;TZID=America/Detroit:20240302T113000 DTEND;TZID=America/Detroit:20240302T121500 SUMMARY:Presentation:Sea Monsters DESCRIPTION:Journey 80 million years back in time to an age when ferocious prehistoric creatures swarm\, hunt\, and fight for survival beneath the vast\, mysterious seas.\n\nStunning\, realistic imagery recreates the perilous underwater realm of two young\, dolphin-sized marine reptiles called Dolichorhynchops\, and their journey among the most awesome predators ever to prowl the oceans.

Ever since\, Hawaiians have made these instruments their own. \n\nFour-time Grammy-winner and master slack key guitarist George Kahumoku Jr.\, known as “Hawai‘i’s Renaissance Man\,” is a vocalist\, storyteller\, songwriter\, author\, teacher\, sculptor\, farmer\, and chef. Daniel Ho is a six-time Grammy winner. He is a multi instrumentalist with talent and versatility on ‘ukulele\, slack key guitar\, piano\, and vocals. International star and two-time Grammy winner Tia Carrere first made her name showcasing her considerable singing and acting chops in Wayne’s World.

Its youth group organizers aimed to bolster Palestinian unity across the systemic barriers — colonial divides\, military checkpoints\, walls\, etc. — that fragment the lives of people living in Palestine. \n\nSouq Stories: Gaza Lives brings us to present-day Gaza\, sharing the stories of\, and images captured by\, young journalists and photographers who have continued to document the realities of life in Palestine. It also honors one among them\, Fouad Abu Khammash\, who was killed in January 2024 in an Israeli bomb attack on Gaza.\n\n< The exhibit includes images of people suffering the aftermath of the ongoing violence. >\n\nThis exhibit was curated by Souq Stories team members Shareef Sarhan and Waed Abbas in partnership with U-M students Amir Marshi\, Zainab Hakim\, Mariam Odeh\, and Vivian M.

Unlike previous U-M Library exhibits that focused on the artist at work\, this display shows him in informal and familial environments\, revealing a depth and complexity of character that are often overshadowed by his fame and professional achievements. The photographs and documents displayed showcase a variety of emotional tones — warmth\, humor\, tenderness\, and passion. Candid and relaxed more than posed\, they are similar to most people's pictures in old family albums.\n\nCulled from the Orson Welles-Beatrice Welles materials that are part of the Mavericks & Makers collection within the U-M Library’s Special Collections Research Center\, each photo or letter tells a story of a connection Welles held dearly. The materials included are from two periods: the late 1920s and early 1930s\, when Welles was a teenager\, and the mid-1950s to early 1960s\, during the early years of his marriage to his third wife\, Paola Mori. \n\nIt should be noted that Welles’s personal life was messy at best. Other collections housed at U-M that include personal materials related to Welles document his first and second marriages\, including the Welles-Feder Collection and the Wilson-Welles Collection. The items on display here were saved by his third and final child\, Beatrice Welles\, and reflect her childhood memories of her parents.\n\nThe exhibit is available during Hatcher Gallery Exhibit Room hours (https://umlib.us/hatchergalleryexhibits).

Even if all emissions ceased tomorrow\, atmospheric CO2 levels are already dangerously high and the climate would keep warming before it eventually stabilizes. We have to reduce or “capture” legacy CO2 to avert disaster. As the International Panel on Climate Change stated\, the *only* way we can meet our climate goal is to use carbon capture in our climate change fighting tool kit. \n\nMany of the products that we use every day are made with carbon. Treating legacy CO2 as a resource with economic value rather than a pollutant allows us to generate revenue while also fighting climate change. \n\nHowever\, not all uses or types of captured CO2 are equal in terms of environmental or economic benefits. This exhibit includes a video game that helps explain the pros and cons associated with different methods and applications of carbon capture. \n\nAdditionally\, it also provides examples of two types of carbon removal\, an interactive block activity\, and sample products made from captured CO2.

The works on view in this exhibition\, all brought into the Museum between 2019 and the present\, shows how institutions like UMMA are becoming more permeable to societal challenges\, and more nimble in responding to them in service to all in their communities. In this exhibition you will find works that reflect on how global migrations\, race\, gender\, and ecological change shape the way we engage with the world and inform our visions for the future.\n \nThis collection of artistic engagements with issues give us tools to envision who we want to be as individuals\, as a museum\, and as a society\, connected to one another across space and experience.\n \nSo gather here to take in these latest works of art brought here for you. Gather here to be engulfed in their forms and meanings\, to discuss their takes\, to learn\, to disagree. Gather to relax\, make a friend\, drink a coffee\, finish the daily Wordle.

Written across the walls above and around the memorial\, a statement proclaims Anishinaabe rights to the land we stand on: “You are on Anishinaabe Land.”  \n \nPresented alongside are paintings of imagined decolonized landscapes and a symbolic cache of provisions. Future Cache implicitly asks those who have benefited from the legacies of colonization to consider where they stand and where to go from here and seeks to foster a sense of belonging for displaced Indigenous peoples fighting for restitution.\n\nSpecial thanks to the Cheboiganing (Burt Lake) Band of Ottawa and Chippewa Indians\, Margaret Noodin\, and Richard A. Wiles\, for their consultation on the State Historical Marker text\; to Margaret Noodin and Michael Zimmerman\, Jr. for translating the gallery texts into Anishinaabemowin\; to James Horton and Fritz Swanson for generously producing the letterpress broadsides\; to colleagues at the U-M Biological Station\, U-M Museum of Anthropological Archaeology\, U-M Clements Library\, and U-M Clark Map Library.

DESCRIPTION:Care in Uncertain Times\n \nAs crises of public health\, economic instability\, authoritarian regimes\, racial injustice\, and climate change spread around the globe\, millions are experiencing distress\, conflict\, uncertainty\, and vulnerability. This troubling combination of experiences is nothing new for Cambodians. Between 1975-1979\, when the Khmer Rouge ruled Cambodia\, about a quarter of the country’s populations died of infectious diseases\, weapon wounds\, and malnutrition.\n \nThis exhibition brings together more than 80 works of art spanning a millennium to present how the visual culture of Cambodia and its diaspora has evolved in the face of cultural upheaval. Showcasing works from worldwide collections\, including those from some of the foremost members of the Cambodian contemporary art scene\, Angkor Complex allows viewers to encounter the still-fresh scars of a genocide and critically appreciate the strategies evolved to nurture resilience in trying times.\n\nLead support for this exhibition is provided by the U-M Office of the Provost\, U-M Office of the President\, National Endowment for the Arts\, Michigan Arts and Culture Council\, Eleanor Noyes Crumpacker Endowment Fund\, and U-M Ross School of Business.\n  UID:114750-21833441@events.umich.edu URL:https://events.umich.edu/event/114750 CLASS:PUBLIC STATUS:CONFIRMED CATEGORIES:Art,Culture,Exhibition,Museum,Public Health,UMMA LOCATION:Museum of Art - A.

Collected for each course are objects that address the nature of materiality\, time\, and human interaction in relation to our environments\, our wars\, our relationships\, and our eccentricities. \n \nWorking in collaboration with University faculty\, the works in this exhibition were selected for their capacity to provoke engagement with the guiding questions and themes of their specific courses\, while also offering students inspiration for research and art projects in their areas of study. The exhibition demonstrates some of the diverse and creative ways art plays a central role in learning across the disciplines. It also asks us to consider what we can learn from art objects across an infinite variety of specialties and subject matter.\n \nAs classes begin in Fall of 2021\, you’ll be able to use these pages to explore the collections designed for each course\, dive into the works themselves\, and hear from the professors and students about how they are engaging with art and objects in new ways. Who knows\, maybe you’ll learn something surprising along the way\, too.\n\nLead support for this exhibition is provided by the University of Michigan Office of the Provost\, Erica Gervais Pappendick and Ted Pappendick\, and the Eleanor Noyes Crumpacker Endowment Fund\, and the Oakriver Foundation.\n  UID:86001-21795826@events.umich.edu URL:https://events.umich.edu/event/86001 CLASS:PUBLIC STATUS:CONFIRMED CATEGORIES:Art,Exhibition,Faculty,Museum,Nature,Research,UMMA LOCATION:Museum of Art - Eleanor Noyes Crumpacker Gallery CONTACT: END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20240130T121551 DTSTART;TZID=America/Detroit:20240303T110000 DTEND;TZID=America/Detroit:20240303T200000 SUMMARY:Exhibition:Unsettling Histories: Legacies of Slavery and Colonialism DESCRIPTION:Organized as a response to the Museum’s recent acquisition of Titus Kaphar’s Flay (James Madison)\, this upcoming reinstallation of one of our most prominent gallery spaces forces us to grapple with our collection of European and American art\, 1650-1850.\n \nIn recent times\, growing public awareness of the continued reverberations of the legacy of slavery and colonization has challenged museums to examine the uncomfortable histories contained in our collections\, and challenged the public to probe the choices we make about those stories. Choices about which artists you see in our galleries\, choices about what relevant facts we share about the works\, and choices about what - out of an infinite number of options - we don’t say about them.\n \nPieces in this exhibition were made at a time when the world came to be shaped by the ideologies of colonial expansion and Western domination. And yet\, that history and the stories of those marginalized do not readily appear in the still lives and portraits on display here. By grappling with what is visible and what remains hidden\, we are forced to examine whose stories and histories are prioritized and why.  \n \nIn this online exhibition\, you can explore our efforts to deeply question the Museum’s collection and our own past complicity in favoring colonial voices. In the Museum gallery\, which will open in early 2021\, you’ll be able to experience the changes we’re making to the physical space to highlight a more honest version of European and American history. \n \nBy challenging our own practice\, and continuing to add to what we know and what we write about the works we display\, UMMA tells a more complex and more complete story of this nation - one that unsettles\, and fails to settle for\, simple narratives. \n \n“Invisible things are not necessarily ‘not there’.... Certain absences are so stressed\, so ornate\, so planned\, they call attention to themselves\; arrest us with intentionality and purpose\, like neighborhoods that are defined by the population held away from them.” \n \n— Toni Morrison\n\nLead support for Unsettling Histories: Legacies of Slavery and Colonialism is provided by the University of Michigan Office of the Provost\, the U-M Arts Initiative\, and the Susan and Richard Gutow Endowed Fund.\n  UID:84303-21621224@events.umich.edu URL:https://events.umich.edu/event/84303 CLASS:PUBLIC STATUS:CONFIRMED CATEGORIES:Art,European,Exhibition,History,Museum,UMMA LOCATION:Museum of Art - European and American Decorative Art CONTACT: END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20240405T192228 DTSTART;TZID=America/Detroit:20240303T113000 DTEND;TZID=America/Detroit:20240303T121500 SUMMARY:Presentation:Sea Monsters DESCRIPTION:Journey 80 million years back in time to an age when ferocious prehistoric creatures swarm\, hunt\, and fight for survival beneath the vast\, mysterious seas.\n\nStunning\, realistic imagery recreates the perilous underwater realm of two young\, dolphin-sized marine reptiles called Dolichorhynchops\, and their journey among the most awesome predators ever to prowl the oceans.

Modernist Glass from the Polish Past DESCRIPTION:The glass in this rare collection represents the work of renowned Polish glass artists and designers created between 1960 and 1980. Known as Polskie szkło artystyczne (Polish art glass)\, the works were produced in glass factories in southern Poland and are a feature of many homes throughout Central Europe. The glass masters were trained in schools of art and design and many achieved international fame during their lifetimes. \n\nThe collectors\, Endi Poskovic and his wife Julie Anne Visco\, began acquiring the glass in 2015-16 while Endi was a Fulbright Scholar and Visiting Professor at the Jan Matejko Academy of Fine Arts in Kraków. Scouring flea markets\, antique shops\, and websites\, they continue to acquire pieces and build the collection to this day. We are grateful to them for making this remarkable exhibit possible at CCPS and WCEE.\n\nOrganized by the Copernicus Center for Polish Studies\, this exhibition is co-sponsored by the Penny W. Stamps School of Art & Design and Weiser Center for Europe and Eurasia.\n\nLearn more about the exhibition and the artists at https://myumi.ch/8eVrM\n\nThe exhibit opens on September 15\, 2023 in 1010 Weiser Hall\, 500 Church Street\, Ann Arbor.

Camera as Passport: The Ship of Photographers DESCRIPTION:Starting in 1933 when Hitler and the Nazis came to power\, a cadre of European Jews—German\, Polish\, Hungarian\, Austrian\, French—discovered that a camera could be their passport\, first out of Germany and then out of Europe. Some of these women and men had been planning one type of career—lawyer\, journalist\, painter\, musician—but then realized that they needed to find another way to earn a living. Taking photographs presented a sufficiently malleable opportunity that not only allowed them to leave Germany and then Europe but also to have a means to sustain themselves in foreign countries where they did not necessarily speak the language.\n \n They did\, however\, mobilize the visual language of photography. For a number of these figures\, forced migration became an asset during the golden age of photojournalism wherein their portable services were employed to supply picture stories on the move and around the world. Many of these Jews became influential photographers\, shaping how their contemporaries saw the world. Looking back on their work\, we can see how they have influenced our understanding of the modern world even as we can recognize their photographs as a significant component of modern Jewish visual culture.\n \n Of the dozens of photographers who fled Europe\, eight escaped on a single ship. The S. S. Winnipeg sailed from Marseille\, France on May 7\, 1941. Germany had already conquered both eastern and western Europe and was poised to invade the Soviet Union. The United States was not yet in the war. Among the 750 refugees aboard were photographers from Hungary\, Belgium\, France\, and Germany: Ilse Bing\, Josef Breitenbach\, Boris Lipnitsky\, Charles Leirens\, Yolla Niclas\, Fred Stein\, Monie Tannen\, and Ylla (Camilla Henriette Koffler). During lifeboat drills\, they discovered each other. Some of them narrowly escaped Vichy France under the auspices of the American journalist Varian Fry and the New York-based Emergency Rescue Committee that helped so many Jewish and anti-Fascist artists get out of Europe in the nick of time.\n \n This exhibit introduces the University of Michigan to this intrepid group as exemplary case studies of the wide range of European photographers who used their cameras as passports to other worlds. It focuses first on their European experiences pre-emigration before turning to their escape from Europe on the S. S. Winnipeg (with three of them taking photos on board the ship). The exhibit concludes with examples of some of their initial photographic reactions to the new world\, seeing it through European eyes.\n \nIf there is anything we can do to make this event accessible to you\, please contact us. Please be aware that advance notice is necessary as some accommodations may require more time for the university to arrange.

Both Malallah and Karim were significantly influenced by their mentors during and after their training in Iraq\, and continue to share their work and ideas with a new generation today.\n\nIn the United States\, Iraq is typically spoken about in a passive position: colonized\, under despotic rule\, occupied. Post-occupied. Through connections between mentors and students\, and students who became mentors to new students\, Iraqi artists have been a force for anti-colonialism\, claiming their heritage and its future for themselves.\n\nView the exhibit Monday-Friday in the Fine Arts Library\, Tappan Hall\, 855 S.

Pinto (School of Social Work) invites audiences to take part in an exhibition that examines his embodied gender states based on his intersecting childhood traumas and life experiences. In \"My Gender States\,\" Pinto shares his deep and abiding grief related to the childhood death of his sister and the subsequent gender embodiments that ensued stemming from the belief that he was his deceased sister. \n\nUsing autoethnography\, Pinto created a one-person play (\"Marília\,\" 2015) and site-specific installation performance (\"The Realm of the Dead\,\" 2022). These works explore the intersecting and shaping layers of childhood traumas\, gender states\, and his life experience—a story of the struggles\, fears\, and accomplishments he experienced as an immigrant to the United States. In \"Realm\,\" audiences circulated around 25 assemblage sculptures created from vintage suitcases and trunks that evoked the cemetery where Pinto’s sister was buried and the literal and figurative baggage that he\, a queer immigrant\, carried with him. \"My Gender States\" is a selection of materials\, images\, and texts from \"Marília\" and \"Realm\" curated to more closely examine the themes of gender and sexuality in these works. Collected are portrayals of Pinto’s gender states\, gender confusion\, gender embodiments\, gender doubt\, and reactions to gender stigma. \n\nRogério M. Pinto (Brazilian\, American\, b. 1965\, Belo Horizonte\, Brazil) is a University Diversity Social Transformation Professor\; Berit Ingersoll-Dayton Collegiate Professor of Social Work\; and Professor of Theatre and Drama\, School of Music\, Theatre & Dance\, at the University of Michigan. Pinto uses art-based methods to conduct community-engaged research in the United States and Brazil.\n\nThe photographs used in \"My Gender States\" are by Emerson Granillo (American\, b. 1987)\; David Newton (American\, b. 1993)\; and Nicholas Williams (American\, b. 1994). The \"Realm\" assemblages featured in \"My Gender States\" were conceived by Pinto and designed by him\, in collaboration with Sarah Tanner. \n\n\"My Gender States\" is on display in the Lane Hall Exhibit Space (first floor\, 204 S State St) from January 23\, to August 13\, 2024. The exhibit is free and open to the public\, M-F\, 9am-4pm.\n\nHosted by the Institute for Research on Women and Gender and the Women’s and Gender Studies Department.

Unlike previous U-M Library exhibits that focused on the artist at work\, this display shows him in informal and familial environments\, revealing a depth and complexity of character that are often overshadowed by his fame and professional achievements. The photographs and documents displayed showcase a variety of emotional tones — warmth\, humor\, tenderness\, and passion. Candid and relaxed more than posed\, they are similar to most people's pictures in old family albums.\n\nCulled from the Orson Welles-Beatrice Welles materials that are part of the Mavericks & Makers collection within the U-M Library’s Special Collections Research Center\, each photo or letter tells a story of a connection Welles held dearly. The materials included are from two periods: the late 1920s and early 1930s\, when Welles was a teenager\, and the mid-1950s to early 1960s\, during the early years of his marriage to his third wife\, Paola Mori. \n\nIt should be noted that Welles’s personal life was messy at best. Other collections housed at U-M that include personal materials related to Welles document his first and second marriages\, including the Welles-Feder Collection and the Wilson-Welles Collection. The items on display here were saved by his third and final child\, Beatrice Welles\, and reflect her childhood memories of her parents.\n\nThe exhibit is available during Hatcher Gallery Exhibit Room hours (https://umlib.us/hatchergalleryexhibits).

Whether designing furniture or developing the ideas for sculpture\, the process has always been the same. Ideas begin as\nscribbled images that are then stretched and refined with CAD software. At its core\, much of the work studies the manipulation of simple geometry. Dunn looks at the form from different forced perspectives – exploding\, augmenting\, slicing\, repeating\, and lighting. This body of work is a study of perception\, sympathy\, hierarchy\, and reality. The “We Are Virus” series is an adaptation from an initial design where it continued to evolve and adapt through manipulation of parts and scale.\n\nPeter Dunn received his BFA from Wayne State University and MFA from University of Michigan.

Even if all emissions ceased tomorrow\, atmospheric CO2 levels are already dangerously high and the climate would keep warming before it eventually stabilizes. We have to reduce or “capture” legacy CO2 to avert disaster. As the International Panel on Climate Change stated\, the *only* way we can meet our climate goal is to use carbon capture in our climate change fighting tool kit. \n\nMany of the products that we use every day are made with carbon. Treating legacy CO2 as a resource with economic value rather than a pollutant allows us to generate revenue while also fighting climate change. \n\nHowever\, not all uses or types of captured CO2 are equal in terms of environmental or economic benefits. This exhibit includes a video game that helps explain the pros and cons associated with different methods and applications of carbon capture. \n\nAdditionally\, it also provides examples of two types of carbon removal\, an interactive block activity\, and sample products made from captured CO2.

Imperfect Correlation of Spousal Expectations and Communication Frictions DESCRIPTION:The PSC Brown Bag Series runs live and on Zoom this year\, Mondays from noon to 1.\n\nSpeaker: Basit Zafar\, University of Michigan\n\nSeminar Date: 3/04/24\n\nThe Silent Treatment? Imperfect Correlation of Spousal Expectations and Communication Frictions\n\nCurrent models of household decision-making assume that partners share information perfectly and hold similar expectations. However\, we lack empirical evidence about spouses’ expectations for the same outcomes and the level of information sharing within couples. To address this gap\, we create an online panel of 2\,200 middle-aged spouses. In this study\, the focus is on expectations about Social Security (SS) benefits\, a primary income source for those over 65. Our descriptive analysis reveals that only a minority of couples have similar expectations about a given spouse’s benefit: just a third of the couples have a difference in monthly benefit expectations smaller than $100\, with an overall correlation of 0.68. The correlation is lower in couples with shorter marital duration\, with lower marital satisfaction\, and where partners disagree about the quality of the relationship. This suggests that communication frictions likely play a role in the imperfect correlation in expectations. We then provide causal evidence on sharing of information within couples by leveraging randomized information provision of future benefits (as per the SS calculator) and a sequential survey design within the couple (with the spousal surveys separated by 3 days\, on average). The information treatment reduces the absolute gap between expectations and benefits calculated by SS calculator for the first-interviewed spouse by about 22 pp. Zafar et al then investigate whether this information spills over to the second spouse. Consistent with some information sharing\, having a treated spouse leads to a secondary spouse having an absolute gap that is 10-12pp lower\; that is\, the spillovers are almost half as large as the treatment impact on the first-interviewed spouse. These spillovers are larger when both spouses agree that the first spouse is more financially knowledgeable. Interestingly\, there is less information sharing among couples who disagree on their marital satisfaction. Finally\, they investigate whether information provision helps couples in joint decision making\, and find some suggestive evidence that providing information to both spouses improves alignment of expected retirement plans for a given spouse.\n\nBasit Zafar is an applied microeconomist. His research is focused on labor economics\, economics of education\, and household finance. Specifically\, his work seeks to understand how individuals make decisions under uncertainty. Professor Zafar’s research employs a disparate set of empirical methods and techniques\, including the use of subjective expectations data and experimental data.\n\nJoin us in person at ISR (Thompson Street) Room 1430.\n\nOr online: Join Zoom Meeting\nhttps://umich.zoom.us/j/95418610585?pwd=Z0cvdkF1T0R2cG1lRDEvVmlnbVdlZz09\n\nMeeting ID: 954 1861 0585\nPasscode: 818420\nOne tap mobile\n+13017158592\,\,95418610585# US (Washington DC)\n+13092053325\,\,95418610585# US\n\nDial by your location\n+1 301 715 8592 US (Washington DC)\n+1 309 205 3325 US\n+1 312 626 6799 US (Chicago)\n+1 646 876 9923 US (New York)\n+1 646 931 3860 US\n+1 564 217 2000 US\n+1 669 444 9171 US\n+1 669 900 6833 US (San Jose)\n+1 719 359 4580 US\n+1 253 215 8782 US (Tacoma)\n+1 346 248 7799 US (Houston)\n+1 386 347 5053 US\n+1 647 374 4685 Canada\n+1 647 558 0588 Canada\n+1 778 907 2071 Canada\n+1 780 666 0144 Canada\n+1 204 272 7920 Canada\n+1 438 809 7799 Canada\n+1 587 328 1099 Canada\nMeeting ID: 954 1861 0585\nFind your local number: https://umich.zoom.us/u/aCRAyuQaT\n\nJoin by SIP\n95418610585@zoomcrc.com\n\nJoin by H.323\n162.255.37.11 (US West)\n162.255.36.11 (US East)\n115.114.131.7 (India Mumbai)\n115.114.115.7 (India Hyderabad)\n213.19.144.110 (Amsterdam Netherlands)\n213.244.140.110 (Germany)\n103.122.166.55 (Australia Sydney)\n103.122.167.55 (Australia Melbourne)\n149.137.40.110 (Singapore)\n64.211.144.160 (Brazil)\n149.137.68.253 (Mexico)\n69.174.57.160 (Canada Toronto)\n65.39.152.160 (Canada Vancouver)\n207.226.132.110 (Japan Tokyo)\n149.137.24.110 (Japan Osaka)\nMeeting ID: 954 1861 0585\nPasscode: 818420 UID:119162-21842285@events.umich.edu URL:https://events.umich.edu/event/119162 CLASS:PUBLIC STATUS:CONFIRMED CATEGORIES:Economics,Microeconomics,Population Studies Center,Social Sciences,Sociology LOCATION:Institute For Social Research - 1430 CONTACT: END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20231214T123048 DTSTART;TZID=America/Detroit:20240304T120000 DTEND;TZID=America/Detroit:20240304T160000 SUMMARY:Exhibition:The Art of Resistance in Early America DESCRIPTION:The exhibition addresses the theme of the LSA Fall 2023 semester at the University of Michigan: \"Arts & Resistance.\" This exhibit asks us to think about resistance in different settings\, and in different forms.

A Zoom option is also provided.\n\nSeminar Description:\n\nOver the past few decades\, atomic-\, molecular-\, and optical (AMO) physics has seen remarkable advances in manipulating individual quantum systems\, such as atoms and photons. State-of-the-art techniques can precisely trap\, arrange\, and manipulate arrays of hundreds of individual atoms with light. This significantly advances our ability to investigate complex many-body quantum effects in well-controlled environments.\n\nIn this talk\, I will present our recent work that utilizes atom arrays to unveil and study intriguing quantum phenomena. The first part will focus on the dissipative many-body dynamics that arise when atoms within these arrays interact via photon-mediated long-range dipole-dipole interactions. This gives rise to phenomena like super- and subradiance\, where photon emission from the array is either significantly enhanced or diminished due to collective effects. I will first illustrate the dynamics in cases where interactions within the array are mediated by just a single photon\, shedding light on key mechanisms for quantum transport in geometries inspired by biological compounds. Then\, I will present our results in the more complex multi-excitation regime\, elucidating some core characteristics of superradiance for large system sizes.\n\nI will then shift focus to how atom arrays can be used as programmable quantum simulators\, when atoms are excited to strongly interacting Rydberg states. I will introduce a toolbox for simulating quantum chemistry problems\, using hardware-optimized control sequences to accurately realize the time evolution of complex spin Hamiltonians. Additionally\, I will discuss a method for extracting chemically relevant data from snapshot measurements taken at different times.

I present two studies which incorporate our long-standing cultural capacity to develop hypotheses of human behavior in the context of cooperation and conflict. The first study will illustrate how competition between culturally differentiated populations\, i.e. cultural group selection\, structures the social scale of cooperation in transient interactions with strangers. The second study shows how certain features of combat-related psychological stress can be explained as a psychological adaptation to culturally-structured normative landscapes. Data for these studies were collected in pastoral communities living in northwest Kenya.

Drawing on examples from throughout the region\, this talk shows how the influence of these bitexts extended well beyond the Buddhist sphere\, shaping the study of grammar\, literature\, and the sciences across early modern Southeast Asia. Bitexts not only facilitated the study of South Asian thought\, but built a platform for Southeast Asians to compose in a fresh\, cosmopolitan idiom that afforded the circulation of ideas across a diverse set of vernacular tongues. Taking a glocal perspective—at the intersection of local and global forces—on these modes of reading\, writing\, and performance allows us to appreciate how Southeast Asian intellectuals made a distinct and enduring contribution to the history of translation.

A precise understanding of neutrino-nucleon cross sections is needed in order to properly interpret these measurements in current and future experiments. To fill this need\, the MicroBooNE experiment has developed an expansive cross section measurement program using its liquid argon time projection chamber detector located at Fermilab National Accelerator Laboratory. The detector\, coupled with topographical event reconstruction techniques\, provides MeV-level detection threshold calorimetry and mm-resolution three-dimensional images of neutrino interactions\, enabling detailed studies of neutrino-nucleon reaction products.\n\nThe analysis featured in this talk is a set of differential cross section measurements made simultaneously for final states with and without protons for the inclusive muon neutrino charged current interaction channel. The cross section results are compared to predictions from a number of commonly used neutrino event generators. These comparisons reveal severe mismodeling of final states without protons\, possibly from insufficient treatment of final state interactions involving the hadronic reaction products as they exit the nucleus. In their entirety\, these measurements represent the most detailed examination of inclusive muon neutrino-argon cross sections to date.

In the case of an elliptic curve E over Q\, the degrees of parameterizations of E by different Shimura curves are related to each other through Tamagawa numbers.

Seeing European Developmentalism: The Transition from Colonial Rule to Foreign Aid Across European Media DESCRIPTION:By reviewing a series of newsreels and films against a backdrop of German and European foreign policy\, this talk will explore the media representation of the European colonial project after World War II. Halle seeks to chart out how in the post-war era\, and in the transition from direct colonial control to neo-colonial entanglement\, a new developmental model emerged: Lebensraum and Mission civilisatrice gave way to development aid and humanitarian relief.\n \n The decolonization process is violent and partisan but given the “success” of the anticolonial forces\, decolonization must generate a new relation to the former colonies for a “post-colonial era” to be possible. Thus\, Halle will review how depictions of anti-colonial violence and pacification gave way to a depiction of development aid. Such developmentalism\, Halle argues\, continues to shape German and EU relations to the present. He will map out the difficult path from a colonial gaze to an eye-level cooperation that is ostensibly the goal of current EU foreign policy and investment.\n \n \n Randall Halle is the Klaus W. Jonas Professor of German Film and Cultural Studies at the University of Pittsburgh. He directs the European Studies Center/Jean Monnet European Union Center of Excellence at Pitt\, as well as the Critical European Culture Studies PhD Program. His essays have appeared in journals such as *EuropeNow\, The International Journal of Cultural Policy*\, and *New German Critique*. He is the author of\, among others\, *German Film after Germany: Toward a Transnational Aesthetic* (University of Illinois Press\, 2008)\, *The Europeanization of Cinema: Interzones and Imaginative Communities* (University of Illinois Press\, 2014)\, and *Visual Alterity: Seeing Difference in Cinema* (University of Illinois Press\, 2021). His research is focused now on Europe’s Moving Images.\n \nIf there is anything we can do to make this event accessible to you\, please contact us.

We will show that the quasi-symmetric (symmetric) functions can be made into a (cocommutative) combinatorial Hopf algebra and that it is the terminal object in the category of (cocommutative) combinatorial Hopf algebras. We will give examples of combinatorial Hopf algebras naturally arising from combinatorics and an application of this result to the study of affine Stanley symmetric functions.

This paper investigates whether a low-capacity state can increase its tax revenue by optimally assigning its tax collectors. We study the two-stage random assignment of property tax collectors into teams and to neighborhoods in a large Congolese city. The optimal assignment involves positive assortative matching on both dimensions: high (low) ability collectors should be paired together\, and high (low) ability teams should be paired with high (low) payment propensity households. Positive assortative matching stems from complementarities in collector-to-collector and collector-to-household match types. We provide evidence that these complementarities reflect in part high-ability collectors exerting greater effort when matched with other high-ability collectors. According to our estimates\, implementing the optimal assignment would increase tax compliance by 2.94 percentage points and revenue by 26% relative to the status quo (random) assignment. Alternative policies\, such as replacing low-ability collectors with new ones of average ability or increasing collectors’ performance wages\, are likely incapable of achieving a similar revenue increase.\n\nThis talk is presented by the Public Finance Seminar\, sponsored in part by the Department of Economics with generous gifts given through the Elizalde-Winikates Family Fund in Economics and the Economics Strategic Fund.

Rhythm—their ingenious application of it\, and their clear mastery of it—has made Lúnasa one of the most influential and innovative bands performing Irish instrumental music today. What Lúnasa has accomplished in their decade-and-a-half career has deep precedents in jazz and progressive bluegrass\, and has made them unique in Celtic circles. Lúnasa welds the ancient soul of traditional instrumental Irish music to a new rhythmic framework\, one which breaks down the barrier between soloist and accompanist and creates a dynamic polyphony that preserves the dignity of their sources while placing the band firmly in the modern age. From day one\, the double bass of Trevor Hutchinson (formerly of The Waterboys) has been the band's fulcrum. The presence of more young Irish bands featuring the double bass—a relative stranger to the genre—is just one example of how Lúnasa's powerful sound has shaped and continues to shape the development of Irish music today.\n\nPlease visit https://mutotix.umich.edu/4372/4373 for more detail.

Modernist Glass from the Polish Past DESCRIPTION:The glass in this rare collection represents the work of renowned Polish glass artists and designers created between 1960 and 1980. Known as Polskie szkło artystyczne (Polish art glass)\, the works were produced in glass factories in southern Poland and are a feature of many homes throughout Central Europe. The glass masters were trained in schools of art and design and many achieved international fame during their lifetimes. \n\nThe collectors\, Endi Poskovic and his wife Julie Anne Visco\, began acquiring the glass in 2015-16 while Endi was a Fulbright Scholar and Visiting Professor at the Jan Matejko Academy of Fine Arts in Kraków. Scouring flea markets\, antique shops\, and websites\, they continue to acquire pieces and build the collection to this day. We are grateful to them for making this remarkable exhibit possible at CCPS and WCEE.\n\nOrganized by the Copernicus Center for Polish Studies\, this exhibition is co-sponsored by the Penny W. Stamps School of Art & Design and Weiser Center for Europe and Eurasia.\n\nLearn more about the exhibition and the artists at https://myumi.ch/8eVrM\n\nThe exhibit opens on September 15\, 2023 in 1010 Weiser Hall\, 500 Church Street\, Ann Arbor.

Camera as Passport: The Ship of Photographers DESCRIPTION:Starting in 1933 when Hitler and the Nazis came to power\, a cadre of European Jews—German\, Polish\, Hungarian\, Austrian\, French—discovered that a camera could be their passport\, first out of Germany and then out of Europe. Some of these women and men had been planning one type of career—lawyer\, journalist\, painter\, musician—but then realized that they needed to find another way to earn a living. Taking photographs presented a sufficiently malleable opportunity that not only allowed them to leave Germany and then Europe but also to have a means to sustain themselves in foreign countries where they did not necessarily speak the language.\n \n They did\, however\, mobilize the visual language of photography. For a number of these figures\, forced migration became an asset during the golden age of photojournalism wherein their portable services were employed to supply picture stories on the move and around the world. Many of these Jews became influential photographers\, shaping how their contemporaries saw the world. Looking back on their work\, we can see how they have influenced our understanding of the modern world even as we can recognize their photographs as a significant component of modern Jewish visual culture.\n \n Of the dozens of photographers who fled Europe\, eight escaped on a single ship. The S. S. Winnipeg sailed from Marseille\, France on May 7\, 1941. Germany had already conquered both eastern and western Europe and was poised to invade the Soviet Union. The United States was not yet in the war. Among the 750 refugees aboard were photographers from Hungary\, Belgium\, France\, and Germany: Ilse Bing\, Josef Breitenbach\, Boris Lipnitsky\, Charles Leirens\, Yolla Niclas\, Fred Stein\, Monie Tannen\, and Ylla (Camilla Henriette Koffler). During lifeboat drills\, they discovered each other. Some of them narrowly escaped Vichy France under the auspices of the American journalist Varian Fry and the New York-based Emergency Rescue Committee that helped so many Jewish and anti-Fascist artists get out of Europe in the nick of time.\n \n This exhibit introduces the University of Michigan to this intrepid group as exemplary case studies of the wide range of European photographers who used their cameras as passports to other worlds. It focuses first on their European experiences pre-emigration before turning to their escape from Europe on the S. S. Winnipeg (with three of them taking photos on board the ship). The exhibit concludes with examples of some of their initial photographic reactions to the new world\, seeing it through European eyes.\n \nIf there is anything we can do to make this event accessible to you\, please contact us. Please be aware that advance notice is necessary as some accommodations may require more time for the university to arrange.

Its youth group organizers aimed to bolster Palestinian unity across the systemic barriers — colonial divides\, military checkpoints\, walls\, etc. — that fragment the lives of people living in Palestine. \n\nSouq Stories: Gaza Lives brings us to present-day Gaza\, sharing the stories of\, and images captured by\, young journalists and photographers who have continued to document the realities of life in Palestine. It also honors one among them\, Fouad Abu Khammash\, who was killed in January 2024 in an Israeli bomb attack on Gaza.\n\n< The exhibit includes images of people suffering the aftermath of the ongoing violence. >\n\nThis exhibit was curated by Souq Stories team members Shareef Sarhan and Waed Abbas in partnership with U-M students Amir Marshi\, Zainab Hakim\, Mariam Odeh\, and Vivian M.

Both Malallah and Karim were significantly influenced by their mentors during and after their training in Iraq\, and continue to share their work and ideas with a new generation today.\n\nIn the United States\, Iraq is typically spoken about in a passive position: colonized\, under despotic rule\, occupied. Post-occupied. Through connections between mentors and students\, and students who became mentors to new students\, Iraqi artists have been a force for anti-colonialism\, claiming their heritage and its future for themselves.\n\nView the exhibit Monday-Friday in the Fine Arts Library\, Tappan Hall\, 855 S.

Pinto (School of Social Work) invites audiences to take part in an exhibition that examines his embodied gender states based on his intersecting childhood traumas and life experiences. In \"My Gender States\,\" Pinto shares his deep and abiding grief related to the childhood death of his sister and the subsequent gender embodiments that ensued stemming from the belief that he was his deceased sister. \n\nUsing autoethnography\, Pinto created a one-person play (\"Marília\,\" 2015) and site-specific installation performance (\"The Realm of the Dead\,\" 2022). These works explore the intersecting and shaping layers of childhood traumas\, gender states\, and his life experience—a story of the struggles\, fears\, and accomplishments he experienced as an immigrant to the United States. In \"Realm\,\" audiences circulated around 25 assemblage sculptures created from vintage suitcases and trunks that evoked the cemetery where Pinto’s sister was buried and the literal and figurative baggage that he\, a queer immigrant\, carried with him. \"My Gender States\" is a selection of materials\, images\, and texts from \"Marília\" and \"Realm\" curated to more closely examine the themes of gender and sexuality in these works. Collected are portrayals of Pinto’s gender states\, gender confusion\, gender embodiments\, gender doubt\, and reactions to gender stigma. \n\nRogério M. Pinto (Brazilian\, American\, b. 1965\, Belo Horizonte\, Brazil) is a University Diversity Social Transformation Professor\; Berit Ingersoll-Dayton Collegiate Professor of Social Work\; and Professor of Theatre and Drama\, School of Music\, Theatre & Dance\, at the University of Michigan. Pinto uses art-based methods to conduct community-engaged research in the United States and Brazil.\n\nThe photographs used in \"My Gender States\" are by Emerson Granillo (American\, b. 1987)\; David Newton (American\, b. 1993)\; and Nicholas Williams (American\, b. 1994). The \"Realm\" assemblages featured in \"My Gender States\" were conceived by Pinto and designed by him\, in collaboration with Sarah Tanner. \n\n\"My Gender States\" is on display in the Lane Hall Exhibit Space (first floor\, 204 S State St) from January 23\, to August 13\, 2024. The exhibit is free and open to the public\, M-F\, 9am-4pm.\n\nHosted by the Institute for Research on Women and Gender and the Women’s and Gender Studies Department.

Unlike previous U-M Library exhibits that focused on the artist at work\, this display shows him in informal and familial environments\, revealing a depth and complexity of character that are often overshadowed by his fame and professional achievements. The photographs and documents displayed showcase a variety of emotional tones — warmth\, humor\, tenderness\, and passion. Candid and relaxed more than posed\, they are similar to most people's pictures in old family albums.\n\nCulled from the Orson Welles-Beatrice Welles materials that are part of the Mavericks & Makers collection within the U-M Library’s Special Collections Research Center\, each photo or letter tells a story of a connection Welles held dearly. The materials included are from two periods: the late 1920s and early 1930s\, when Welles was a teenager\, and the mid-1950s to early 1960s\, during the early years of his marriage to his third wife\, Paola Mori. \n\nIt should be noted that Welles’s personal life was messy at best. Other collections housed at U-M that include personal materials related to Welles document his first and second marriages\, including the Welles-Feder Collection and the Wilson-Welles Collection. The items on display here were saved by his third and final child\, Beatrice Welles\, and reflect her childhood memories of her parents.\n\nThe exhibit is available during Hatcher Gallery Exhibit Room hours (https://umlib.us/hatchergalleryexhibits).

Whether designing furniture or developing the ideas for sculpture\, the process has always been the same. Ideas begin as\nscribbled images that are then stretched and refined with CAD software. At its core\, much of the work studies the manipulation of simple geometry. Dunn looks at the form from different forced perspectives – exploding\, augmenting\, slicing\, repeating\, and lighting. This body of work is a study of perception\, sympathy\, hierarchy\, and reality. The “We Are Virus” series is an adaptation from an initial design where it continued to evolve and adapt through manipulation of parts and scale.\n\nPeter Dunn received his BFA from Wayne State University and MFA from University of Michigan.

Even if all emissions ceased tomorrow\, atmospheric CO2 levels are already dangerously high and the climate would keep warming before it eventually stabilizes. We have to reduce or “capture” legacy CO2 to avert disaster. As the International Panel on Climate Change stated\, the *only* way we can meet our climate goal is to use carbon capture in our climate change fighting tool kit. \n\nMany of the products that we use every day are made with carbon. Treating legacy CO2 as a resource with economic value rather than a pollutant allows us to generate revenue while also fighting climate change. \n\nHowever\, not all uses or types of captured CO2 are equal in terms of environmental or economic benefits. This exhibit includes a video game that helps explain the pros and cons associated with different methods and applications of carbon capture. \n\nAdditionally\, it also provides examples of two types of carbon removal\, an interactive block activity\, and sample products made from captured CO2.

The works on view in this exhibition\, all brought into the Museum between 2019 and the present\, shows how institutions like UMMA are becoming more permeable to societal challenges\, and more nimble in responding to them in service to all in their communities. In this exhibition you will find works that reflect on how global migrations\, race\, gender\, and ecological change shape the way we engage with the world and inform our visions for the future.\n \nThis collection of artistic engagements with issues give us tools to envision who we want to be as individuals\, as a museum\, and as a society\, connected to one another across space and experience.\n \nSo gather here to take in these latest works of art brought here for you. Gather here to be engulfed in their forms and meanings\, to discuss their takes\, to learn\, to disagree. Gather to relax\, make a friend\, drink a coffee\, finish the daily Wordle.

Written across the walls above and around the memorial\, a statement proclaims Anishinaabe rights to the land we stand on: “You are on Anishinaabe Land.”  \n \nPresented alongside are paintings of imagined decolonized landscapes and a symbolic cache of provisions. Future Cache implicitly asks those who have benefited from the legacies of colonization to consider where they stand and where to go from here and seeks to foster a sense of belonging for displaced Indigenous peoples fighting for restitution.\n\nSpecial thanks to the Cheboiganing (Burt Lake) Band of Ottawa and Chippewa Indians\, Margaret Noodin\, and Richard A.

DESCRIPTION:Care in Uncertain Times\n \nAs crises of public health\, economic instability\, authoritarian regimes\, racial injustice\, and climate change spread around the globe\, millions are experiencing distress\, conflict\, uncertainty\, and vulnerability. This troubling combination of experiences is nothing new for Cambodians. Between 1975-1979\, when the Khmer Rouge ruled Cambodia\, about a quarter of the country’s populations died of infectious diseases\, weapon wounds\, and malnutrition.\n \nThis exhibition brings together more than 80 works of art spanning a millennium to present how the visual culture of Cambodia and its diaspora has evolved in the face of cultural upheaval. Showcasing works from worldwide collections\, including those from some of the foremost members of the Cambodian contemporary art scene\, Angkor Complex allows viewers to encounter the still-fresh scars of a genocide and critically appreciate the strategies evolved to nurture resilience in trying times.\n\nLead support for this exhibition is provided by the U-M Office of the Provost\, U-M Office of the President\, National Endowment for the Arts\, Michigan Arts and Culture Council\, Eleanor Noyes Crumpacker Endowment Fund\, and U-M Ross School of Business.\n  UID:114750-21833442@events.umich.edu URL:https://events.umich.edu/event/114750 CLASS:PUBLIC STATUS:CONFIRMED CATEGORIES:Art,Culture,Exhibition,Museum,Public Health,UMMA LOCATION:Museum of Art - A.

The exhibition demonstrates some of the diverse and creative ways art plays a central role in learning across the disciplines. It also asks us to consider what we can learn from art objects across an infinite variety of specialties and subject matter.\n \nAs classes begin in Fall of 2021\, you’ll be able to use these pages to explore the collections designed for each course\, dive into the works themselves\, and hear from the professors and students about how they are engaging with art and objects in new ways.

Choices about which artists you see in our galleries\, choices about what relevant facts we share about the works\, and choices about what - out of an infinite number of options - we don’t say about them.\n \nPieces in this exhibition were made at a time when the world came to be shaped by the ideologies of colonial expansion and Western domination. And yet\, that history and the stories of those marginalized do not readily appear in the still lives and portraits on display here. By grappling with what is visible and what remains hidden\, we are forced to examine whose stories and histories are prioritized and why.  \n \nIn this online exhibition\, you can explore our efforts to deeply question the Museum’s collection and our own past complicity in favoring colonial voices. In the Museum gallery\, which will open in early 2021\, you’ll be able to experience the changes we’re making to the physical space to highlight a more honest version of European and American history. \n \nBy challenging our own practice\, and continuing to add to what we know and what we write about the works we display\, UMMA tells a more complex and more complete story of this nation - one that unsettles\, and fails to settle for\, simple narratives. \n \n“Invisible things are not necessarily ‘not there’.... Certain absences are so stressed\, so ornate\, so planned\, they call attention to themselves\; arrest us with intentionality and purpose\, like neighborhoods that are defined by the population held away from them.” \n \n— Toni Morrison\n\nLead support for Unsettling Histories: Legacies of Slavery and Colonialism is provided by the University of Michigan Office of the Provost\, the U-M Arts Initiative\, and the Susan and Richard Gutow Endowed Fund.\n  UID:84303-21621225@events.umich.edu URL:https://events.umich.edu/event/84303 CLASS:PUBLIC STATUS:CONFIRMED CATEGORIES:Art,European,Exhibition,History,Museum,UMMA LOCATION:Museum of Art - European and American Decorative Art CONTACT: END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20240229T144721 DTSTART;TZID=America/Detroit:20240305T113000 DTEND;TZID=America/Detroit:20240305T123000 SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:BIBC/ChE Faculty Candidate Seminar DESCRIPTION:Please join us on March 5th for a seminar from the ChE/BIBC Faculty Candidate Dr. Hailing Shi.

Zoom registration at https://myumi.ch/p7nwq\n\nSomething very strange seems to have happened a long time ago in a far-off land: a fortune-telling book was made the basis of a philosophical tradition. How did this system of prognostication come to be viewed as the ultimate authority in matters of cosmology\, metaphysics\, politics and ethics? With what consequences\, and on what premises? How does this differ from traditions that take a different bit of their seemingly obsolete cultural technology—mythological narrative—as their touchpoint for developing philosophical thought? These will be our topics in this talk.\n \n Brook A. Ziporyn is a scholar of ancient and medieval Chinese religion and philosophy. He received his BA in East Asian Languages and Civilizations from the University of Chicago\, and his PhD from the University of Michigan. Prior to joining the Divinity School faculty\, he has taught Chinese philosophy and religion at the University of Michigan (Department of Asian Languages and Cultures)\, Northwestern University (Department of Religion and Department of Philosophy)\, Harvard University (Department of East Asian Literature and Civilization) and the National University of Singapore (Department of Philosophy).\n \n Dr. Ziporyn is the author of \"Evil And/Or/As the Good: Omnicentric Holism\, Intersubjectivity and Value Paradox in Tiantai Buddhist Thought\" (Harvard\, 2000)\, \"The Penumbra Unbound: The Neo-Taoist Philosophy of Guo Xiang\" (SUNY Press\, 2003)\, \"Being and Ambiguity: Philosophical Experiments With Tiantai Buddhism\" (Open Court\, 2004)\; \"Zhuangzi: The Essential Writings with Selections from Traditional Commentaries\" (Hackett\, 2009)\; \"Ironies of Oneness and Difference: Coherence in Early Chinese Thought\; Prolegomena to the Study of Li\" (SUNY Press\, 2012)\; and \"Beyond Oneness and Difference: Li and Coherence in Chinese Buddhist Thought and its Antecedents\" (SUNY\n Press\, 2013). His seventh book\, \"Emptiness and Omnipresence: An Essential Introduction to Tiantai Buddhism\,\" was published by Indiana University Press in 2016. He is currently working on a cross-cultural inquiry into the themes of death\, time and perception\, tentatively entitled \"Against Being Here Now\,\" as well as a book-length exposition of atheism as a form of religious and mystical experience in the intellectual histories of Europe\, India and China. His translation of \"Zhuangzi: The Complete Writings\" was published by Hackett in 2020\, and his translation of the \"Daodejing\" will be published by Liveright Books and the Norton Library in 2022.\n \nIf there is anything we can do to make this event accessible to you\, please contact us.

In humans\, two catalytically active ADARs\, ADAR1 and ADAR2\, perform this A-to-I editing reaction. The growing field of nucleotide base editing has highlighted ADARs as promising therapeutic agents while multiple studies have also identified ADAR1’s role in innate immunity and cancer. This presentation will introduce ADARs and A to I RNA editing along with a description of biochemical and structural studies that have advanced our understanding of ADARs’ reactivity and selectivity. In addition\, I will describe how high throughput screening and chemical modifications can be used to optimize guide RNAs that can recruit ADARs for the correction of disease-causing mutations at the RNA level.

It is the study of manifolds whose curvature obeys certain properties (dictated by the Einstein equations)\, and also of various quantities of interest on these manifolds. These quantities usually have physically significant interpretations\, and it is interesting to study how these quantities are affected by the underlying spacetime curvature. Since GR is a nonlinear theory\, the quantities themselves also influence the underlying curvature. This talk will be an introduction to the mathematical side of GR\, viewed from the lens of differential geometry and analysis.

Island and Empire: How Civil War in Crete Mobilized the Ottoman World DESCRIPTION:In the 1890s\, conflict erupted on the Ottoman island of Crete\, exposing competing claims of sovereignty between Greece and the Ottoman Empire. The island was of tremendous geostrategic value\, boasting one of the deepest natural harbors in the Mediterranean\, and the conflict quickly gained international dimensions with an unprecedented collective military intervention by six European powers.\n \n In this lecture\, Uğur Zekeriya Peçe analyzes the troubled history of Crete on the eve of the twentieth century by narrating a connected history of international intervention\, mass displacement\, and popular mobilization. The conflict on Crete drove a wedge between the island's Muslims and Christians\, quickly acquiring a character of civil war and unleashing a humanitarian catastrophe with the displacement of more than seventy-thousand Muslims. By exploring both the emergence and legacies of violence\, this talk demonstrates how Cretan refugees became the engine of protest across the empire from Salonica to Libya\, sending ripples farther afield beyond imperial borders. As Dr. Peçe shows\, the local history of one island tells us a broader story about the end of a whole empire.\n\nCkick here to register for the virtual event: http://bit.ly/490IFhw UID:118779-21841595@events.umich.edu URL:https://events.umich.edu/event/118779 CLASS:PUBLIC STATUS:CONFIRMED CATEGORIES:Area Studies,center for middle eastern and north african studies,Lecture,Middle East Studies,Virtual LOCATION:Off Campus Location CONTACT: END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20240220T161821 DTSTART;TZID=America/Detroit:20240305T173000 DTEND;TZID=America/Detroit:20240305T190000 SUMMARY:Careers / Jobs:IMC Trading - Corporate Information Session DESCRIPTION:Majors: Computer Engineering\, Computer Science\, Data Science\, Electrical Engineering\n\nPositions: Intern\, Full-time\n\nDegrees: Bachelors\, Masters\n\nResumes collected\n\nCompany overview - who we are\, what we do\, what it is like to work here\, insights into technology + trading.\n\nIMC is as much a technology firm as a trading house.

The glass masters were trained in schools of art and design and many achieved international fame during their lifetimes. \n\nThe collectors\, Endi Poskovic and his wife Julie Anne Visco\, began acquiring the glass in 2015-16 while Endi was a Fulbright Scholar and Visiting Professor at the Jan Matejko Academy of Fine Arts in Kraków.

Camera as Passport: The Ship of Photographers DESCRIPTION:Starting in 1933 when Hitler and the Nazis came to power\, a cadre of European Jews—German\, Polish\, Hungarian\, Austrian\, French—discovered that a camera could be their passport\, first out of Germany and then out of Europe. Some of these women and men had been planning one type of career—lawyer\, journalist\, painter\, musician—but then realized that they needed to find another way to earn a living. Taking photographs presented a sufficiently malleable opportunity that not only allowed them to leave Germany and then Europe but also to have a means to sustain themselves in foreign countries where they did not necessarily speak the language.\n \n They did\, however\, mobilize the visual language of photography. For a number of these figures\, forced migration became an asset during the golden age of photojournalism wherein their portable services were employed to supply picture stories on the move and around the world. Many of these Jews became influential photographers\, shaping how their contemporaries saw the world. Looking back on their work\, we can see how they have influenced our understanding of the modern world even as we can recognize their photographs as a significant component of modern Jewish visual culture.\n \n Of the dozens of photographers who fled Europe\, eight escaped on a single ship. The S. S. Winnipeg sailed from Marseille\, France on May 7\, 1941. Germany had already conquered both eastern and western Europe and was poised to invade the Soviet Union. The United States was not yet in the war. Among the 750 refugees aboard were photographers from Hungary\, Belgium\, France\, and Germany: Ilse Bing\, Josef Breitenbach\, Boris Lipnitsky\, Charles Leirens\, Yolla Niclas\, Fred Stein\, Monie Tannen\, and Ylla (Camilla Henriette Koffler). During lifeboat drills\, they discovered each other. Some of them narrowly escaped Vichy France under the auspices of the American journalist Varian Fry and the New York-based Emergency Rescue Committee that helped so many Jewish and anti-Fascist artists get out of Europe in the nick of time.\n \n This exhibit introduces the University of Michigan to this intrepid group as exemplary case studies of the wide range of European photographers who used their cameras as passports to other worlds. It focuses first on their European experiences pre-emigration before turning to their escape from Europe on the S. S. Winnipeg (with three of them taking photos on board the ship). The exhibit concludes with examples of some of their initial photographic reactions to the new world\, seeing it through European eyes.\n \nIf there is anything we can do to make this event accessible to you\, please contact us. Please be aware that advance notice is necessary as some accommodations may require more time for the university to arrange.

Pinto (School of Social Work) invites audiences to take part in an exhibition that examines his embodied gender states based on his intersecting childhood traumas and life experiences. In \"My Gender States\,\" Pinto shares his deep and abiding grief related to the childhood death of his sister and the subsequent gender embodiments that ensued stemming from the belief that he was his deceased sister. \n\nUsing autoethnography\, Pinto created a one-person play (\"Marília\,\" 2015) and site-specific installation performance (\"The Realm of the Dead\,\" 2022). These works explore the intersecting and shaping layers of childhood traumas\, gender states\, and his life experience—a story of the struggles\, fears\, and accomplishments he experienced as an immigrant to the United States. In \"Realm\,\" audiences circulated around 25 assemblage sculptures created from vintage suitcases and trunks that evoked the cemetery where Pinto’s sister was buried and the literal and figurative baggage that he\, a queer immigrant\, carried with him. \"My Gender States\" is a selection of materials\, images\, and texts from \"Marília\" and \"Realm\" curated to more closely examine the themes of gender and sexuality in these works. Collected are portrayals of Pinto’s gender states\, gender confusion\, gender embodiments\, gender doubt\, and reactions to gender stigma. \n\nRogério M. Pinto (Brazilian\, American\, b. 1965\, Belo Horizonte\, Brazil) is a University Diversity Social Transformation Professor\; Berit Ingersoll-Dayton Collegiate Professor of Social Work\; and Professor of Theatre and Drama\, School of Music\, Theatre & Dance\, at the University of Michigan. Pinto uses art-based methods to conduct community-engaged research in the United States and Brazil.\n\nThe photographs used in \"My Gender States\" are by Emerson Granillo (American\, b. 1987)\; David Newton (American\, b. 1993)\; and Nicholas Williams (American\, b. 1994). The \"Realm\" assemblages featured in \"My Gender States\" were conceived by Pinto and designed by him\, in collaboration with Sarah Tanner. \n\n\"My Gender States\" is on display in the Lane Hall Exhibit Space (first floor\, 204 S State St) from January 23\, to August 13\, 2024. The exhibit is free and open to the public\, M-F\, 9am-4pm.\n\nHosted by the Institute for Research on Women and Gender and the Women’s and Gender Studies Department.

Unlike previous U-M Library exhibits that focused on the artist at work\, this display shows him in informal and familial environments\, revealing a depth and complexity of character that are often overshadowed by his fame and professional achievements. The photographs and documents displayed showcase a variety of emotional tones — warmth\, humor\, tenderness\, and passion. Candid and relaxed more than posed\, they are similar to most people's pictures in old family albums.\n\nCulled from the Orson Welles-Beatrice Welles materials that are part of the Mavericks & Makers collection within the U-M Library’s Special Collections Research Center\, each photo or letter tells a story of a connection Welles held dearly. The materials included are from two periods: the late 1920s and early 1930s\, when Welles was a teenager\, and the mid-1950s to early 1960s\, during the early years of his marriage to his third wife\, Paola Mori. \n\nIt should be noted that Welles’s personal life was messy at best. Other collections housed at U-M that include personal materials related to Welles document his first and second marriages\, including the Welles-Feder Collection and the Wilson-Welles Collection. The items on display here were saved by his third and final child\, Beatrice Welles\, and reflect her childhood memories of her parents.\n\nThe exhibit is available during Hatcher Gallery Exhibit Room hours (https://umlib.us/hatchergalleryexhibits).

Whether designing furniture or developing the ideas for sculpture\, the process has always been the same. Ideas begin as\nscribbled images that are then stretched and refined with CAD software. At its core\, much of the work studies the manipulation of simple geometry. Dunn looks at the form from different forced perspectives – exploding\, augmenting\, slicing\, repeating\, and lighting. This body of work is a study of perception\, sympathy\, hierarchy\, and reality. The “We Are Virus” series is an adaptation from an initial design where it continued to evolve and adapt through manipulation of parts and scale.\n\nPeter Dunn received his BFA from Wayne State University and MFA from University of Michigan.

Even if all emissions ceased tomorrow\, atmospheric CO2 levels are already dangerously high and the climate would keep warming before it eventually stabilizes. We have to reduce or “capture” legacy CO2 to avert disaster. As the International Panel on Climate Change stated\, the *only* way we can meet our climate goal is to use carbon capture in our climate change fighting tool kit. \n\nMany of the products that we use every day are made with carbon. Treating legacy CO2 as a resource with economic value rather than a pollutant allows us to generate revenue while also fighting climate change. \n\nHowever\, not all uses or types of captured CO2 are equal in terms of environmental or economic benefits. This exhibit includes a video game that helps explain the pros and cons associated with different methods and applications of carbon capture. \n\nAdditionally\, it also provides examples of two types of carbon removal\, an interactive block activity\, and sample products made from captured CO2.

We will describe two stability phenomena that the (co)homology of these families of groups (indexed by the number n of punctures) exhibit. When the surface has non-empty boundary\, the `puncture' homological stability of the family of mapping class groups is closely related with the representation stability of the sequence of homology groups of the pure mapping class groups. If time permits\, we will explain this relation and how it could be used to obtain new results.

The works on view in this exhibition\, all brought into the Museum between 2019 and the present\, shows how institutions like UMMA are becoming more permeable to societal challenges\, and more nimble in responding to them in service to all in their communities. In this exhibition you will find works that reflect on how global migrations\, race\, gender\, and ecological change shape the way we engage with the world and inform our visions for the future.\n \nThis collection of artistic engagements with issues give us tools to envision who we want to be as individuals\, as a museum\, and as a society\, connected to one another across space and experience.\n \nSo gather here to take in these latest works of art brought here for you. Gather here to be engulfed in their forms and meanings\, to discuss their takes\, to learn\, to disagree. Gather to relax\, make a friend\, drink a coffee\, finish the daily Wordle.

Written across the walls above and around the memorial\, a statement proclaims Anishinaabe rights to the land we stand on: “You are on Anishinaabe Land.”  \n \nPresented alongside are paintings of imagined decolonized landscapes and a symbolic cache of provisions. Future Cache implicitly asks those who have benefited from the legacies of colonization to consider where they stand and where to go from here and seeks to foster a sense of belonging for displaced Indigenous peoples fighting for restitution.\n\nSpecial thanks to the Cheboiganing (Burt Lake) Band of Ottawa and Chippewa Indians\, Margaret Noodin\, and Richard A.

DESCRIPTION:Care in Uncertain Times\n \nAs crises of public health\, economic instability\, authoritarian regimes\, racial injustice\, and climate change spread around the globe\, millions are experiencing distress\, conflict\, uncertainty\, and vulnerability. This troubling combination of experiences is nothing new for Cambodians. Between 1975-1979\, when the Khmer Rouge ruled Cambodia\, about a quarter of the country’s populations died of infectious diseases\, weapon wounds\, and malnutrition.\n \nThis exhibition brings together more than 80 works of art spanning a millennium to present how the visual culture of Cambodia and its diaspora has evolved in the face of cultural upheaval. Showcasing works from worldwide collections\, including those from some of the foremost members of the Cambodian contemporary art scene\, Angkor Complex allows viewers to encounter the still-fresh scars of a genocide and critically appreciate the strategies evolved to nurture resilience in trying times.\n\nLead support for this exhibition is provided by the U-M Office of the Provost\, U-M Office of the President\, National Endowment for the Arts\, Michigan Arts and Culture Council\, Eleanor Noyes Crumpacker Endowment Fund\, and U-M Ross School of Business.\n  UID:114750-21833443@events.umich.edu URL:https://events.umich.edu/event/114750 CLASS:PUBLIC STATUS:CONFIRMED CATEGORIES:Art,Culture,Exhibition,Museum,Public Health,UMMA LOCATION:Museum of Art - A.

Collected for each course are objects that address the nature of materiality\, time\, and human interaction in relation to our environments\, our wars\, our relationships\, and our eccentricities. \n \nWorking in collaboration with University faculty\, the works in this exhibition were selected for their capacity to provoke engagement with the guiding questions and themes of their specific courses\, while also offering students inspiration for research and art projects in their areas of study. The exhibition demonstrates some of the diverse and creative ways art plays a central role in learning across the disciplines. It also asks us to consider what we can learn from art objects across an infinite variety of specialties and subject matter.\n \nAs classes begin in Fall of 2021\, you’ll be able to use these pages to explore the collections designed for each course\, dive into the works themselves\, and hear from the professors and students about how they are engaging with art and objects in new ways. Who knows\, maybe you’ll learn something surprising along the way\, too.\n\nLead support for this exhibition is provided by the University of Michigan Office of the Provost\, Erica Gervais Pappendick and Ted Pappendick\, and the Eleanor Noyes Crumpacker Endowment Fund\, and the Oakriver Foundation.\n  UID:86001-21795828@events.umich.edu URL:https://events.umich.edu/event/86001 CLASS:PUBLIC STATUS:CONFIRMED CATEGORIES:Art,Exhibition,Faculty,Museum,Nature,Research,UMMA LOCATION:Museum of Art - Eleanor Noyes Crumpacker Gallery CONTACT: END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20240130T121551 DTSTART;TZID=America/Detroit:20240306T110000 DTEND;TZID=America/Detroit:20240306T170000 SUMMARY:Exhibition:Unsettling Histories: Legacies of Slavery and Colonialism DESCRIPTION:Organized as a response to the Museum’s recent acquisition of Titus Kaphar’s Flay (James Madison)\, this upcoming reinstallation of one of our most prominent gallery spaces forces us to grapple with our collection of European and American art\, 1650-1850.\n \nIn recent times\, growing public awareness of the continued reverberations of the legacy of slavery and colonization has challenged museums to examine the uncomfortable histories contained in our collections\, and challenged the public to probe the choices we make about those stories. Choices about which artists you see in our galleries\, choices about what relevant facts we share about the works\, and choices about what - out of an infinite number of options - we don’t say about them.\n \nPieces in this exhibition were made at a time when the world came to be shaped by the ideologies of colonial expansion and Western domination. And yet\, that history and the stories of those marginalized do not readily appear in the still lives and portraits on display here. By grappling with what is visible and what remains hidden\, we are forced to examine whose stories and histories are prioritized and why.  \n \nIn this online exhibition\, you can explore our efforts to deeply question the Museum’s collection and our own past complicity in favoring colonial voices. In the Museum gallery\, which will open in early 2021\, you’ll be able to experience the changes we’re making to the physical space to highlight a more honest version of European and American history. \n \nBy challenging our own practice\, and continuing to add to what we know and what we write about the works we display\, UMMA tells a more complex and more complete story of this nation - one that unsettles\, and fails to settle for\, simple narratives. \n \n“Invisible things are not necessarily ‘not there’.... Certain absences are so stressed\, so ornate\, so planned\, they call attention to themselves\; arrest us with intentionality and purpose\, like neighborhoods that are defined by the population held away from them.” \n \n— Toni Morrison\n\nLead support for Unsettling Histories: Legacies of Slavery and Colonialism is provided by the University of Michigan Office of the Provost\, the U-M Arts Initiative\, and the Susan and Richard Gutow Endowed Fund.\n  UID:84303-21621226@events.umich.edu URL:https://events.umich.edu/event/84303 CLASS:PUBLIC STATUS:CONFIRMED CATEGORIES:Art,European,Exhibition,History,Museum,UMMA LOCATION:Museum of Art - European and American Decorative Art CONTACT: END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20240321T063157 DTSTART;TZID=America/Detroit:20240306T110000 DTEND;TZID=America/Detroit:20240306T140000 SUMMARY:Careers / Jobs:VIRTUAL INFORMATION SESSION- Wednesday March 6th- CRC and CRAs DESCRIPTION:Virtual Information Session: Clinical Research Assistant and Clinical Research Coordinators - Wednesday\, March 6TH- 11:00 am-2:00 pm (EST)\n\n \nPlease join us for a virtual information session for Clinical Research Assistants and Clinical Research Coordinators.\n\n \n\nYou will meet with our research recruiters to learn about the opportunities available within the Research Institute at CHOP.\n\n \nPlease note that this event is specifically geared toward individuals with experience in clinical trials and an understanding of the IRB process\, patient recruitment\, data management\, and multi-study/multi-site collaboration.\n\n\nLearn why CHOP isa great place to work. \n\n\n\n* a calendar invite with a link to log in will be sent before the event\n\n UID:119147-21842264@events.umich.edu URL:https://events.umich.edu/event/119147 CLASS:PUBLIC STATUS:CONFIRMED CATEGORIES: LOCATION: CONTACT: END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20240122T134342 DTSTART;TZID=America/Detroit:20240306T120000 DTEND;TZID=America/Detroit:20240306T130000 SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Building Your Pre-Health Target School List DESCRIPTION:\"Building Your Pre-Health Target School List\" aims to engage pre-health students in a collaborative and hands-on experience to create a personalized and well-researched list of potential medical schools.

Possibly dating to the 6th century CE\, this Christian protective object—perforated at the top and thus meant to be suspended around the neck or on a wall—depicts a saint on horseback spearing a quadruped with a female face and long hair. This hybrid creature most likely depicts the Byzantine she-demon Gello\, the attacker of pregnant women and newborns. \n\nGello\, however\, has a long history both before and after the 6th century. Her precursors include the Jewish she-demon Lilith\, who likewise appears in talismans that were worn by puerperant women\, and her most widespread successor in Islamic lands is the she-demon Tabi‘a or Umm Sibyan (“The Mother of Children”)\, a figure that is often invoked in Islamic apotropaic incantations (*ruqya*)\, as well as depicted in printed talismans and treatises on demonology. This talk aims to explore and pinpoint the she-demon’s trajectory in the three Abrahamic faiths\, along with their associated amuletic cultures during the premodern era.

The Terra case highlights the limitations of private money creation. We show that the system’s complexity made it difficult even for insiders to accurately assess the buildup of risk and adjust system parameters accordingly. Decentralized governance mechanisms added inefficiencies to the system and further exacerbated the instability. We document that although all investors had access to the Terra blockchain\, it did not create a level playing field for all investors. Wealthier and more sophisticated investors processed information more efficiently\, ran more decisively\, and realized much smaller losses. Our results show that in the presence of complexity\, the blockchain transparency may not only fail to create an equal footing for all investors\, but can also exacerbate the asymmetry between sophisticated and unsophisticated investors.\n\nThis talk is presented by the Macroeconomics Seminar\, sponsored by the Department of Economics with generous gifts given through the Michael Beauregard Fund for Macroeconomics and the Economics Strategic Fund.

We will begin by defining Hasse-Weil L-functions from a point-counting perspective\, before seeing how we can think of them as arising from Galois representations. To see how these constructions might be related to automorphic representations\, we will begin by considering the relationship between elliptic curves and cuspidal Hecke eigenforms described by the modularity theorem. We will then think about how to define L-functions for automorphic representations more generally\, and how they may relate to Hasse-Weil L-functions. Finally\, we will use Langlands’ formalism around L-functions of automorphic representations to think about a relationship between automorphic representations of different groups\, as formulated in the functoriality conjecture.

Higher education and intellectualism have been under attack in the current climate\, posing threats to academic freedom and leading toward a chilling effect within education. These efforts are being framed as measures to prevent the teaching of “divisive concepts\,” which\, in effect\, are topics that name and seek to address societal inequities and to improve the greater human condition and have led to the dismantling of diversity\, equity\, and inclusion (DEI) efforts\, book and teaching bans\, and discipline or termination of individuals who engage in this work. The codifying of such efforts presents clear and immediate challenges to academic freedom\, education\, and society writ large. In this conversation\, panelists will discuss anti-intellectualism and anti-DEI through a historical and contemporary lens. Panelists will also discuss how such efforts seek to disrupt progress gained by the enactment of DEI efforts. Finally\, panelists will offer insights on navigating these challenges and their chilling effects within higher education and beyond.\n\n\nSPEAKERS\n\nElizabeth R.

These extreme states of matter are present in diverse systems from inertial fusion targets to the hearts of stars. Measuring the precise conditions of these plasmas and predicting their atomic-scale properties play a key role in understanding system-scale behavior. This talk introduces X-ray spectroscopy\, a powerful measurement technique that can identify the elemental composition of a plasma\, constrain its temperature and density\, and signal extreme magnetic and electric fields. It will also show how X-ray spectroscopy can help refine the designs of inertial fusion targets and increase our understanding of main sequence and white dwarf stars.\n\nAbout the Speaker: \nStephanie Hansen is a Senior Scientist in the Pulsed Power Science Center of Sandia National Laboratories. She studies the atomic-scale behavior of atoms in extreme environments and develops atomic\, spectroscopic\, equation-of-state\, and transport models to help predict and diagnose the behavior of high energy-density plasmas. She is the author and developer of the SCRAM non-LTE spectroscopic modeling code and MUZE\, a self-consistent field code used for equation-of-state\, scattering\, and transport calculations. Hansen was awarded an early-career grant from DOE to study material in non-equilibrium conditions in 2015\, received the Presidential Early Career Award for Scientists and Engineers in 2017\, and was elected a Fellow of the American Physical Society’s Division of Plasma Physics in 2019. She holds degrees in Physics and Philosophy from the University of Nevada\, Reno and has been a Visiting Associate Professor at Cornell University since 2012.\n\nThis is a hybrid event.

Foundational results of Drezet and Le Potier from the 1980s show that on the projective plane exceptional bundles have a deep and elaborate relationship with stable bundles in general. In this talk I will explore how these results in some ways extend and in other ways fail to extend to three-dimensional projective space\, and discuss several interesting open problems concerning exceptional bundles.

However\, our understanding of the impact of regulatory DNA variation is severely limited by the difficulty of precisely assigning the functional contribution of individual nucleotides to phenotypic outcomes. My talk will focus of on my groups efforts to systematically map human regulatory DNA and make use naturally occurring human genetic variation across large cohorts of distinct individuals and cell-types to gain mechanistic insights into regulatory DNA function.\n\nShort Bio:\n\nMy group focuses on the development of both experimental and computation approaches better understand the structural and functional architecture of genome-encoded regulatory programs and building tools to manipulate the non-coding genome for therapeutic purposes. Major areas of my ongoing research include (i) development of both molecular and computation tools for the per-nucleotide mapping of the structure and function within individual regulatory elements\, (ii) defining the link between human regulatory genetic variation and trait variation to gain mechanistic insights into how genes are normally regulated and disregulated in disease\, and (iii) characterizing and decoding regulatory DNA elements that encode cell-identity and differentiation programs. I obtained my BSc in Genetics and Computer Science at the University of Wisconsin\, and my PhD at the University of Washington-Seattle. In 2006\, I became one of the founding investigators at the non-profit Altius Institute of Biomedical Sciences located in Seattle\, WA.\n\nhttps://umich-health.zoom.us/j/93929606089?pwd=SHh6R1FOQm8xMThRemdxTEFMWWpVdz09 UID:119340-21842588@events.umich.edu URL:https://events.umich.edu/event/119340 CLASS:PUBLIC STATUS:CONFIRMED CATEGORIES:Basic Science,Biology,Biomedical Engineering,Biosciences,Cardiovascular,Chemistry,Discussion,Education,Electrical Engineering and Computer Science,Engineering,Free,Graduate Students,Human Genetics,Information and Technology,Learning Health Systems,Lecture,Life Science,Mathematics,Medicine,Michigan Engineering,Pediatrics,Physics,Precision Health,Public Health,Research,Science,seminar,Structural Biology,Talk LOCATION:Palmer Commons - Forum Hall (and Room 1122 at NCRC #520) CONTACT: END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20240227T151454 DTSTART;TZID=America/Detroit:20240306T160000 DTEND;TZID=America/Detroit:20240306T173000 SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Geom/Top RTG Seminar: On classifying spaces of mapping class groups DESCRIPTION:Given a discrete group G and a family F of subgroups of G there is a G-CW complex that classifies G-CW complexes with isotropy contained in the family F. Such space is unique up to G-equivariant homotopy and is often called the classifying space of G for the family F. For the trivial family it is the universal cover of a K(G\,1) space\, and more generally\, classifying spaces for families play an important role in the classification of manifolds with a given fundamental group G. In this talk\, we will introduce these notions and survey what is known about classifying spaces for some families of subgroups of the mapping class group of an orientable surface of finite type. Time permitting\, we will discuss recent joint work with Porfirio León Álvarez and Luis Jorge Sánchez Saldaña in this topic.

The Criterion Collection describes Radford’s 1984 as “The definitive film adaptation of George Orwell’s prophetic literary classic\, starring John Hurt and Richard Burton. This masterly adaptation of George Orwell’s chilling parable about totalitarian oppression gives harrowing cinematic expression to the book’s prophetic dystopia. In a rubble-strewn surveillance state where an endless overseas war props up the repressive regime of the all-seeing Big Brother\, and all dissent is promptly squashed\, a profoundly alienated citizen\, Winston Smith (thrillingly played by John Hurt)\, risks everything for an illicit affair with the rebellious Julia (Suzanna Hamilton)\, defiantly asserting his humanity in the face of soul-crushing conformity. Through vividly grim production design and expressionistically desaturated cinematography by Roger Deakins\, Michael Radford’s 1984 conjures a bleak vision of postwar Britain as fascistic nightmare — a world all too recognizable as our own.\"\n\nA discussion of the film\, featuring U-M faculty\, will accompany the screening.\n\nEvent Website: https://safecomputing.umich.edu/events/Privacy-at-Michigan/1984-40th-anniversary-screening\n\nMichigan Theater: http://michtheater.org/ UID:118821-21841772@events.umich.edu URL:https://events.umich.edu/event/118821 CLASS:PUBLIC STATUS:CONFIRMED CATEGORIES:Ai Literacy,Alumni,Artificial Intelligence,Big Tech,cyber security,Data,Digital Culture,digital technology,Discussion,Ethics,Faculty,Film,Free,Human Rights\, Sustainability\, Social Impact,information and technology,information law,information policy,information science,information technology,Media,michigan it,privacy,Social Impact,Social Justice,Sociology,Staff,technology,Undergraduate LOCATION:Off Campus Location CONTACT: END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20240222T150341 DTSTART;TZID=America/Detroit:20240306T173000 DTEND;TZID=America/Detroit:20240306T190000 SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:Panel on Innovations in Nonprofit Fundraising DESCRIPTION:The University of Michigan Nonprofit Board Fellowship Program welcomes you to a dynamic panel discussion with local nonprofit leaders discussing the latest trends and innovations in fundraising.

He's shared the stage with artists as diverse as James Taylor\, Ani DiFranco\, Edwin McCain\, Martin Sexton\, Emmylou Harris and Ryan Adams\, and he's known for his passionate live sets and powerful command of both piano and guitar. Seth is adept at both personal acoustic songs and big pop melodies\, and his music ranges from introspective to political in songs that\, Seth says\, \"are bound together by the awareness that our world is a fragile place that is all the more magical for it.\" Of his new album\, “Everything\,” Seth says\, “The earth speaks to us in a myriad of ways—through ice cores\, through uplift and erosion\, through tree rings—languages we have the potential to restore our literacy in.: Reconnecting with these quiet messages has set Seth\, an avid mushroom forager and a Grammy-nominated artist from western Massachusetts\, on a path of channeling nature’s longing for communion with humanity into song. His new album is a collection of eight songs inviting us to imagine a future in which humans and the planet are re-aligned into mutual restoration.\n\nAsk about the new generation of social justice music-makers \,and Crys Matthews will be mentioned. A southeastern North Carolina native who now calls Washington\, D.C.\, home\, Crys has been compared to everyone from Toshi Reagon to Tracy Chapman and Ruthie Foster. Equally at home in an acoustic listening room as she is on stage at large music festivals\, Crys quickly gathered a loyal following on the East Coast playing such prestigious venues as the Sundance Film Festival\, The Birchmere\, The Hamilton\, and Jammin’ Java. A prolific lyricist\, Crys blends Americana\, folk\, jazz\, blues\, bluegrass\, and funk into a bold\, complex performance steeped in traditional melodies punctuated by honest\, original lyrics. “I believe in hope\,” Crys says. “As a social-justice songwriter\, it is my duty to keep breathing that hope and encouragement into the people who listen to my music.” \n\nPlease visit https://mutotix.umich.edu/4559/4560 for more detail.

Modernist Glass from the Polish Past DESCRIPTION:The glass in this rare collection represents the work of renowned Polish glass artists and designers created between 1960 and 1980. Known as Polskie szkło artystyczne (Polish art glass)\, the works were produced in glass factories in southern Poland and are a feature of many homes throughout Central Europe. The glass masters were trained in schools of art and design and many achieved international fame during their lifetimes. \n\nThe collectors\, Endi Poskovic and his wife Julie Anne Visco\, began acquiring the glass in 2015-16 while Endi was a Fulbright Scholar and Visiting Professor at the Jan Matejko Academy of Fine Arts in Kraków. Scouring flea markets\, antique shops\, and websites\, they continue to acquire pieces and build the collection to this day. We are grateful to them for making this remarkable exhibit possible at CCPS and WCEE.\n\nOrganized by the Copernicus Center for Polish Studies\, this exhibition is co-sponsored by the Penny W.

Camera as Passport: The Ship of Photographers DESCRIPTION:Starting in 1933 when Hitler and the Nazis came to power\, a cadre of European Jews—German\, Polish\, Hungarian\, Austrian\, French—discovered that a camera could be their passport\, first out of Germany and then out of Europe. Some of these women and men had been planning one type of career—lawyer\, journalist\, painter\, musician—but then realized that they needed to find another way to earn a living. Taking photographs presented a sufficiently malleable opportunity that not only allowed them to leave Germany and then Europe but also to have a means to sustain themselves in foreign countries where they did not necessarily speak the language.\n \n They did\, however\, mobilize the visual language of photography. For a number of these figures\, forced migration became an asset during the golden age of photojournalism wherein their portable services were employed to supply picture stories on the move and around the world. Many of these Jews became influential photographers\, shaping how their contemporaries saw the world. Looking back on their work\, we can see how they have influenced our understanding of the modern world even as we can recognize their photographs as a significant component of modern Jewish visual culture.\n \n Of the dozens of photographers who fled Europe\, eight escaped on a single ship. The S. S. Winnipeg sailed from Marseille\, France on May 7\, 1941. Germany had already conquered both eastern and western Europe and was poised to invade the Soviet Union. The United States was not yet in the war. Among the 750 refugees aboard were photographers from Hungary\, Belgium\, France\, and Germany: Ilse Bing\, Josef Breitenbach\, Boris Lipnitsky\, Charles Leirens\, Yolla Niclas\, Fred Stein\, Monie Tannen\, and Ylla (Camilla Henriette Koffler). During lifeboat drills\, they discovered each other. Some of them narrowly escaped Vichy France under the auspices of the American journalist Varian Fry and the New York-based Emergency Rescue Committee that helped so many Jewish and anti-Fascist artists get out of Europe in the nick of time.\n \n This exhibit introduces the University of Michigan to this intrepid group as exemplary case studies of the wide range of European photographers who used their cameras as passports to other worlds. It focuses first on their European experiences pre-emigration before turning to their escape from Europe on the S. S. Winnipeg (with three of them taking photos on board the ship). The exhibit concludes with examples of some of their initial photographic reactions to the new world\, seeing it through European eyes.\n \nIf there is anything we can do to make this event accessible to you\, please contact us. Please be aware that advance notice is necessary as some accommodations may require more time for the university to arrange.

In this exhibit\, internationally renowned Filipino artist Cian Dayrit acts as a counter-cartographer\, reclaiming mapmaking as an emancipatory activity.\n\nDayrit’s artworks\, embroidered on textiles or painted over collages of colonial-era maps\, plot the extraction of natural resources\, land grabbing\, and dispossession and displacement in his native Philippines. At the same time\, their resistant lines summon new imaginaries out of the overlaps between places and memories.\n\nDayrit’s practice is critically and practically informed by the narratives of Filipino communities. Items exhibited alongside his artwork are the result of map-drawing workshops the artist has convened with rural\, urban\, and indigenous communities across the Philippines. Propositions to Progress invites you to engage in the collaborative endeavor to activate alternative territories from the ground up.\n\nCian Dayrit is an interdisciplinary artist exploring colonialism and ethnography\, archaeology\, history\, and mythology. Dayrit subverts the language of the state\, museum\, and military to visualize the contradictions on which these institutions are built. He studied at the University of the Philippines.

Through connections between mentors and students\, and students who became mentors to new students\, Iraqi artists have been a force for anti-colonialism\, claiming their heritage and its future for themselves.\n\nView the exhibit Monday-Friday in the Fine Arts Library\, Tappan Hall\, 855 S.

Pinto (School of Social Work) invites audiences to take part in an exhibition that examines his embodied gender states based on his intersecting childhood traumas and life experiences. In \"My Gender States\,\" Pinto shares his deep and abiding grief related to the childhood death of his sister and the subsequent gender embodiments that ensued stemming from the belief that he was his deceased sister. \n\nUsing autoethnography\, Pinto created a one-person play (\"Marília\,\" 2015) and site-specific installation performance (\"The Realm of the Dead\,\" 2022). These works explore the intersecting and shaping layers of childhood traumas\, gender states\, and his life experience—a story of the struggles\, fears\, and accomplishments he experienced as an immigrant to the United States. In \"Realm\,\" audiences circulated around 25 assemblage sculptures created from vintage suitcases and trunks that evoked the cemetery where Pinto’s sister was buried and the literal and figurative baggage that he\, a queer immigrant\, carried with him. \"My Gender States\" is a selection of materials\, images\, and texts from \"Marília\" and \"Realm\" curated to more closely examine the themes of gender and sexuality in these works. Collected are portrayals of Pinto’s gender states\, gender confusion\, gender embodiments\, gender doubt\, and reactions to gender stigma. \n\nRogério M. Pinto (Brazilian\, American\, b. 1965\, Belo Horizonte\, Brazil) is a University Diversity Social Transformation Professor\; Berit Ingersoll-Dayton Collegiate Professor of Social Work\; and Professor of Theatre and Drama\, School of Music\, Theatre & Dance\, at the University of Michigan. Pinto uses art-based methods to conduct community-engaged research in the United States and Brazil.\n\nThe photographs used in \"My Gender States\" are by Emerson Granillo (American\, b. 1987)\; David Newton (American\, b. 1993)\; and Nicholas Williams (American\, b. 1994). The \"Realm\" assemblages featured in \"My Gender States\" were conceived by Pinto and designed by him\, in collaboration with Sarah Tanner. \n\n\"My Gender States\" is on display in the Lane Hall Exhibit Space (first floor\, 204 S State St) from January 23\, to August 13\, 2024. The exhibit is free and open to the public\, M-F\, 9am-4pm.\n\nHosted by the Institute for Research on Women and Gender and the Women’s and Gender Studies Department.

Unlike previous U-M Library exhibits that focused on the artist at work\, this display shows him in informal and familial environments\, revealing a depth and complexity of character that are often overshadowed by his fame and professional achievements. The photographs and documents displayed showcase a variety of emotional tones — warmth\, humor\, tenderness\, and passion. Candid and relaxed more than posed\, they are similar to most people's pictures in old family albums.\n\nCulled from the Orson Welles-Beatrice Welles materials that are part of the Mavericks & Makers collection within the U-M Library’s Special Collections Research Center\, each photo or letter tells a story of a connection Welles held dearly. The materials included are from two periods: the late 1920s and early 1930s\, when Welles was a teenager\, and the mid-1950s to early 1960s\, during the early years of his marriage to his third wife\, Paola Mori. \n\nIt should be noted that Welles’s personal life was messy at best. Other collections housed at U-M that include personal materials related to Welles document his first and second marriages\, including the Welles-Feder Collection and the Wilson-Welles Collection. The items on display here were saved by his third and final child\, Beatrice Welles\, and reflect her childhood memories of her parents.\n\nThe exhibit is available during Hatcher Gallery Exhibit Room hours (https://umlib.us/hatchergalleryexhibits).

Whether designing furniture or developing the ideas for sculpture\, the process has always been the same. Ideas begin as\nscribbled images that are then stretched and refined with CAD software. At its core\, much of the work studies the manipulation of simple geometry. Dunn looks at the form from different forced perspectives – exploding\, augmenting\, slicing\, repeating\, and lighting. This body of work is a study of perception\, sympathy\, hierarchy\, and reality. The “We Are Virus” series is an adaptation from an initial design where it continued to evolve and adapt through manipulation of parts and scale.\n\nPeter Dunn received his BFA from Wayne State University and MFA from University of Michigan.

The works on view in this exhibition\, all brought into the Museum between 2019 and the present\, shows how institutions like UMMA are becoming more permeable to societal challenges\, and more nimble in responding to them in service to all in their communities. In this exhibition you will find works that reflect on how global migrations\, race\, gender\, and ecological change shape the way we engage with the world and inform our visions for the future.\n \nThis collection of artistic engagements with issues give us tools to envision who we want to be as individuals\, as a museum\, and as a society\, connected to one another across space and experience.\n \nSo gather here to take in these latest works of art brought here for you. Gather here to be engulfed in their forms and meanings\, to discuss their takes\, to learn\, to disagree. Gather to relax\, make a friend\, drink a coffee\, finish the daily Wordle.

Written across the walls above and around the memorial\, a statement proclaims Anishinaabe rights to the land we stand on: “You are on Anishinaabe Land.”  \n \nPresented alongside are paintings of imagined decolonized landscapes and a symbolic cache of provisions. Future Cache implicitly asks those who have benefited from the legacies of colonization to consider where they stand and where to go from here and seeks to foster a sense of belonging for displaced Indigenous peoples fighting for restitution.\n\nSpecial thanks to the Cheboiganing (Burt Lake) Band of Ottawa and Chippewa Indians\, Margaret Noodin\, and Richard A.

DESCRIPTION:Care in Uncertain Times\n \nAs crises of public health\, economic instability\, authoritarian regimes\, racial injustice\, and climate change spread around the globe\, millions are experiencing distress\, conflict\, uncertainty\, and vulnerability. This troubling combination of experiences is nothing new for Cambodians. Between 1975-1979\, when the Khmer Rouge ruled Cambodia\, about a quarter of the country’s populations died of infectious diseases\, weapon wounds\, and malnutrition.\n \nThis exhibition brings together more than 80 works of art spanning a millennium to present how the visual culture of Cambodia and its diaspora has evolved in the face of cultural upheaval. Showcasing works from worldwide collections\, including those from some of the foremost members of the Cambodian contemporary art scene\, Angkor Complex allows viewers to encounter the still-fresh scars of a genocide and critically appreciate the strategies evolved to nurture resilience in trying times.\n\nLead support for this exhibition is provided by the U-M Office of the Provost\, U-M Office of the President\, National Endowment for the Arts\, Michigan Arts and Culture Council\, Eleanor Noyes Crumpacker Endowment Fund\, and U-M Ross School of Business.\n  UID:114750-21833444@events.umich.edu URL:https://events.umich.edu/event/114750 CLASS:PUBLIC STATUS:CONFIRMED CATEGORIES:Art,Culture,Exhibition,Museum,Public Health,UMMA LOCATION:Museum of Art - A.

Collected for each course are objects that address the nature of materiality\, time\, and human interaction in relation to our environments\, our wars\, our relationships\, and our eccentricities. \n \nWorking in collaboration with University faculty\, the works in this exhibition were selected for their capacity to provoke engagement with the guiding questions and themes of their specific courses\, while also offering students inspiration for research and art projects in their areas of study. The exhibition demonstrates some of the diverse and creative ways art plays a central role in learning across the disciplines. It also asks us to consider what we can learn from art objects across an infinite variety of specialties and subject matter.\n \nAs classes begin in Fall of 2021\, you’ll be able to use these pages to explore the collections designed for each course\, dive into the works themselves\, and hear from the professors and students about how they are engaging with art and objects in new ways.

Even if all emissions ceased tomorrow\, atmospheric CO2 levels are already dangerously high and the climate would keep warming before it eventually stabilizes. We have to reduce or “capture” legacy CO2 to avert disaster. As the International Panel on Climate Change stated\, the *only* way we can meet our climate goal is to use carbon capture in our climate change fighting tool kit. \n\nMany of the products that we use every day are made with carbon. Treating legacy CO2 as a resource with economic value rather than a pollutant allows us to generate revenue while also fighting climate change. \n\nHowever\, not all uses or types of captured CO2 are equal in terms of environmental or economic benefits. This exhibit includes a video game that helps explain the pros and cons associated with different methods and applications of carbon capture. \n\nAdditionally\, it also provides examples of two types of carbon removal\, an interactive block activity\, and sample products made from captured CO2.

Choices about which artists you see in our galleries\, choices about what relevant facts we share about the works\, and choices about what - out of an infinite number of options - we don’t say about them.\n \nPieces in this exhibition were made at a time when the world came to be shaped by the ideologies of colonial expansion and Western domination. And yet\, that history and the stories of those marginalized do not readily appear in the still lives and portraits on display here. By grappling with what is visible and what remains hidden\, we are forced to examine whose stories and histories are prioritized and why.  \n \nIn this online exhibition\, you can explore our efforts to deeply question the Museum’s collection and our own past complicity in favoring colonial voices. In the Museum gallery\, which will open in early 2021\, you’ll be able to experience the changes we’re making to the physical space to highlight a more honest version of European and American history. \n \nBy challenging our own practice\, and continuing to add to what we know and what we write about the works we display\, UMMA tells a more complex and more complete story of this nation - one that unsettles\, and fails to settle for\, simple narratives. \n \n“Invisible things are not necessarily ‘not there’.... Certain absences are so stressed\, so ornate\, so planned\, they call attention to themselves\; arrest us with intentionality and purpose\, like neighborhoods that are defined by the population held away from them.” \n \n— Toni Morrison\n\nLead support for Unsettling Histories: Legacies of Slavery and Colonialism is provided by the University of Michigan Office of the Provost\, the U-M Arts Initiative\, and the Susan and Richard Gutow Endowed Fund.\n  UID:84303-21621227@events.umich.edu URL:https://events.umich.edu/event/84303 CLASS:PUBLIC STATUS:CONFIRMED CATEGORIES:Art,European,Exhibition,History,Museum,UMMA LOCATION:Museum of Art - European and American Decorative Art CONTACT: END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20240228T141012 DTSTART;TZID=America/Detroit:20240307T110000 DTEND;TZID=America/Detroit:20240307T120000 SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Quantum Research Institute Seminar | Quantum Optical Interconnects DESCRIPTION:Marko Lončar\, Tiantsai Lin Professor of Electrical Engineering at Harvard's School of Engineering and Applied Sciences (SEAS)\, will be presenting \"Quantum Optical Interconnects\" as part of the Quantum Research Institute's winter seminar series from 11am - noon in the Henderson Room (3rd floor) at the Michigan League. A Zoom option is also provided.\n\nSeminar Description:\nOptically active and highly coherent emitters in solids are a promising platform for a wide variety of quantum information applications\, particularly quantum memory and other quantum networking tasks. Rare-earth atoms\, in addition to having record long coherence times\, have the added benefit that they can be hosted in a wide range of solid-state materials. We can thus target particular materials (and choose particular rare-earth species and isotopes) that enable certain application-specific functionalities. I will give an overview of this promising field and discuss several ongoing projects with rare-earth atoms in different host materials and configurations. This includes efforts to identify and grow new materials with rare-earth atoms at stoichiometric concentrations in order to reduce disorder-induced inhomogeneous broadening\, as well as photonic integration of rare-earth doped samples to increase the light-atom interaction for practical quantum devices.

The conversation explores SWF’s practice of re-mapping cities’ resources at its Communiversity to create true Common Wealth – the spaces\, structures\, networks\, resources\, and opportunities essential to mending the urban fabric\, healing communities\, and equipping our neighborhoods to thrive\, rather than merely survive. The talk invites us to imagine: “What if??? What if…. neighborhood development took place on a human scale\, fueled by the critical connections that cultivate the relationships and collective commitment to do the necessary work?”\n\nAbout Emmanuel Pratt\nEmmanuel Pratt is an Urban Designer\, Artist\, and MacArthur Fellow. He is the co-founder and Executive Director of Sweet Water Foundation. Emmanuel’s praxis is rooted in decades of work that interrogates the cross-sectionality of architecture\, urban planning\, agroecology\, and human development. His work builds upon and moves beyond the theory of Communicative Action towards the creation of a new paradigm of Regenerative Neighborhood Development (RND). Emmanuel was a Harvard GSD Loeb Fellow in 2017\, a 2019 Joyce Award recipient\, and a 2019 MacArthur Fellow.\n\nThe Douglas S. Kelbaugh Lecture is generously funded through an endowed fund given by Douglas Kelbaugh and Kathleen Nolan to support an annual public lecture on the topic of urban design. The contributions of Douglas Kelbaugh\, FAIA\, FCNU\, professor emeritus of architecture and urban and regional planning and dean emeritus of Taubman College\, to the field of sustainable architecture and urban planning\, the Taubman College community\, cities\, and the education of students will continue to create a positive impact in the world for years to come\, including through the annual Kelbaugh Lecture.

I develop a theory that implies that the effect should be small on impact—raising only the wages of workers bound by the minimum wage—and grow over time. Guided by my theory\, I present evidence that these dynamic effects are present and powerful. Estimated at the national and state levels\, I show that minimum wages—together with supply and demand—play a central role in shaping the evolution of the U.S. college premium and that the elasticity of the college premium to the minimum wage is small on impact and grows dramatically over time. To verify my theory’s mechanisms\, I additionally document the dynamic impact of the minimum wage over the full wage distribution: on impact\, wages rise only for the lowest centiles (consistent with the literature) but over time this effect spills over up the wage distribution (consistent with my theory and my empirical results on the college premium). On the basis of these results\, I conclude that the minimum wage plays a central role in shaping the U.S. college premium and its variation across states\, in spite of relatively small effects on impact.\n\nThis talk is presented by the Labor Economics Seminar\, sponsored in part by the Department of Economics with generous gifts given through the Abraham and Thelma Zwerdling Labor Economics Program.\n\nThis talk is presented by the International Economics Seminar\, sponsored by the Department of Economics with generous gifts given through the Economics Strategic Fund.

Phylogenetic comparative methods have emerged as one way to study this questions at the broadest\, macroevolutionary scales. However\, finding the right balance of model realism\, complexity\, and statistical power has proved to be a major challenge to making robust inferences. Here\, I will show work in my lab that seeks to address this challenge by reframing macroevolutionary questions away from questions about rate variation\, and to instead focus on how we define and measure characters themselves. I will argue that this reframing enables new links to biological knowledge and data that provide needed constraints on our models and enable new insights into the causes and consequences of macroevolutionary change.\n\nWebsite: uyedalab.com UID:117489-21839375@events.umich.edu URL:https://events.umich.edu/event/117489 CLASS:PUBLIC STATUS:CONFIRMED CATEGORIES:AEM Featured,Biology,Biosciences,Bsbsigns,department of ecology and evolutionary biology,ecology,Ecology & Biology,Ecology And Evolutionary Biology,eeb,Herbarium,Zoology LOCATION:Biological Sciences Building - 1010 CONTACT: END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20240131T163003 DTSTART;TZID=America/Detroit:20240307T150000 DTEND;TZID=America/Detroit:20240307T170000 SUMMARY:Social / Informal Gathering:Hopwood Tea DESCRIPTION:All are welcome for tea\, coffee\, and light refreshments at the weekly tea in the Hopwood Room.

The first story is how biophysical cues dictate the formation and maintenance of dense connective tissues. This work includes how muscle loading during embryogenesis dictates the growth of tissues in the knee joint and how cell contractility regulates cell fate and tissue homeostasis. The second story\, which started with a serendipitous discovery during my graduate studies\, is focused on how the hedgehog signaling pathway is a master regulator of fibrocartilage formation during enthesis development and tendon-to-bone repair in adults.\n\nBio:\nI obtained my undergraduate degree in Materials Science and Engineering with a specialization in Biomaterials from the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign in 2005. I completed my PhD in the Functional Tissue Engineering laboratory under the direction of Dr. David Butler at the University of Cincinnati in 2011. After postdoctoral training in musculoskeletal biology with Dr. David Rowe at UConn Health\, I moved to the University of Pennsylvania in 2017\, where I developed an independent research program in the McKay Orthopaedic Research Laboratory.\n\nMy lab’s primary research goals are directed towards understanding the genetic\, cellular\, and mechanical mechanisms that regulate normal development\, disease\, and repair of joint tissues. I am particularly interested in identifying markers that define resident progenitors vs. mature cell types and the environmental cues (molecular and mechanical) that regulate their differentiation. I was awarded a K99/R00 grant in 2015 to define the tendon cell lineage and pathways that regulate tenogenesis\, which led to our current work investigating the role of hedgehog signaling in tendon-to-bone repair and developing novel drug delivery systems targeting this pathway to improve repair outcomes. My lab also examines how mechanical forces impact the formation and maintenance of dense connective tissues\, which have resulted in a recent publication in PNAS and the formation of the Penn Achilles Tendinopathy Center of Research Translation (PAT-CORT). In 2024\, I was awarded the Kappa Delta Young Investigator Award from the AAOS for this work. Ultimately\, the long-term goals of my lab are directed towards translating these mechanistic studies to novel therapeutic strategies.\n\nZoom:\nhttps://umich.zoom.us/j/94801149707 UID:119421-21842743@events.umich.edu URL:https://events.umich.edu/event/119421 CLASS:PUBLIC STATUS:CONFIRMED CATEGORIES:Biology,biomedical,biomedical engineering,Bioninterfaces,Biosciences,Biotechnology,bme,engineer,engineering,Michigan Engineering,seminar LOCATION:Electrical Engineering and Computer Science Building - 1311 CONTACT: END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20240228T134334 DTSTART;TZID=America/Detroit:20240307T153000 DTEND;TZID=America/Detroit:20240307T162000 SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:Department of Astronomy 2023-2024 Colloquium Series Presents: DESCRIPTION:\"Probing Exoplanets at the Diffraction Limit with Fiber-fed High-resolution Infrared Spectroscopy\"\n\nIn this presentation\, I will highlight recent discoveries made possible by the Keck Planet Imager and Characterizer (KPIC) at the W. M. Keck Observatory. KPIC's pioneering single-mode fiber-fed architecture\, seamlessly integrating the Keck II adaptive optics system with the NIRSPEC infrared high-resolution spectrograph\, has allowed us to delve into the chemodynamics of exoplanets and brown dwarf companions at close separations.\n\nUtilizing KPIC\, we have collected 30 R=35\,000 K-band spectra of low-mass companions\, providing new insights into their spins\, orbits\, and chemical compositions\, including their carbon-to-oxygen ratio\, metallicity\, and isotopologues. These measurements provide valuable new perspectives on their formation processes through dynamics and chemistry. Furthermore\, I will discuss preliminary findings from our ongoing survey for exo-satellites around specific targets within our sample\, offering tantalizing prospects for further exploration.\n\nKPIC's achievements have set the stage for future instruments such as Keck-HISPEC and TMT-MODHIS\, poised to deliver even more refined spectroscopic capabilities for studying directly imaged exoplanets\, as well as close-in and transiting planets\, along with precise radial velocity measurements.

We ask whether household welfare is improved from a universal anti-poverty program\, rather than a program targeted at only the poorest. In order to answer this question\, we will use a clustered Randomized Control Trial of a universal anti-poverty program with nearly 4\,000 households across 335 highly impoverished villages in rural Uganda. The program we consider\, provided to everyone in eligible communities\, offers a package of support including agricultural and livestock inputs and training\; health education and entrepreneurship support. We examine the effects of the programme 2-3 years after its start\, finding large positive effects throughout the distribution\, with average incomes increasing 25%\, wealth increasing 36% and consumption increasing 10%. There are also large positive impacts on a range of social welfare measures\, including physical and mental health\, hunger and nutrition and community engagement. At a cost of only 280 USD PPP per household\, this program is a cost-effective and scalable way to alleviate extreme poverty. \n\nThis talk is presented by the Economic Development Seminar\, sponsored in part by the Department of Economics through a generous gift given by Jay and Beth Rakow.

I'll discuss the structure of these spacetimes and demonstrate\, via the analysis of a simple ODE\, that they can also exhibit the formation of naked singularities\, singularities visible from infinity\, accompanying the black hole provided only that the null dust accumulates slowly. More pointedly\, I'll demonstrate that there is a sense in which the emergence of naked singularities is generic within this class of spacetimes.

A significant challenge to achieving this goal is the fundamental difference in the excited-state properties of first-row metal complexes as compared to their second- and third-row congeners subsequent to light absorption. Our group has been working on understanding the origins of this difference in an effort to develop design principles that will assist in overcoming these intrinsic challenges and develop new paradigms for the creation of photo-active first-row chromophores for applications in solar energy conversion strategies as well as photoredox catalysis.\n\nThis presentation will provide a brief survey of the work we have been engaged in over the past several years employing a combination of synthetic chemistry and ultrafast spectroscopy. Our primary focus has been on compounds involving metals with a d6 valence electronic configuration. In the case of Fe(II)\, leveraging information from vibronic coherence was found to provide what amounts to a roadmap for effective synthetic design to lengthen the lifetime of MLCT excited states\, whereas the excited-state redox activity of Co(III)-based ligand-field excited states coupled with dynamics occurring in the Marcus inverted region enabled previously unforeseen applications in photoredox catalysis. Future directions envisioned for this line of research will also be discussed.

He began his career as a printer’s apprentice with Juan Pascoe at his renowned letterpress studio Taller Martin Pescador (Kingfisher Workshop) in Tacámbaro\, Michoacán. At the age of 21\, Rodríguez immigrated to Los Angeles and became a printmaker at Self Help Graphics. He co-founded La Mano Press in 2002 in Los Angeles before relocating to Michoacán in 2008\, where he co-founded La Mano Gráfica\, a gallery and craft store. Rodríguez directs the Library of Illustrated Books (Biblioteca del Libro Ilustrado\, BLI)\, where his many public projects include The Bibliográfico\, a 1977 Toyota converted into a traveling library\, and the Graficomovil\, a 1948 delivery truck converted into a gallery and printmaking studio. \nRodríguez is known for his linocut prints as well as his mural-sized prints and for his vehicles. Influenced by both European medieval woodcuts and Mexican cultural symbolism developed by artists like José Guadalupe Posada\, Rodríguez’s style emphasizes simplicity\, clarity\, and imbued with a personal narrative. His images come from contemporary icons like American cartoons and Mexican culture\, mythology and surrealism. A poet at heart\, Rodríguez uses the physicality of the printmaking process to write stories in images. His work has been exhibited internationally and is in the collections of many public institutions\, including the Seattle Art Museum\, Los Angeles County Museum of Art\, Hammer Museum\, Petersen Automotive Museum\, Library of Congress\, Phoenix Art Museum and Museo José Guadalupe Posada. A retrospective look of his works can be seen in the book American Dream.\n\"Rodríguez’s new works emphasize some of his best-loved figures – skeletons\, devils\, animals\, children\, and the royalty of Michoacán – in acts of celebration\, seduction\, and play. He captures a multitude of experiences within one moment and one image. Entire scenes of a play\, entire poems\, unfold in stark black lines.\" - Paige McCray\, Davidson Galleries\nRodriguez’s talk will cover his journey from his beginnings in rural Mexico to his experience crossing the US border\, becoming part of the Chicano Art and Mexican printmaking scene\, his rise to recognition and giving back to his community.

These six solos are accompanied here by original visual art inspired by each movement of Bach’s music. The original program is divided into three parts averaging about 45 minutes\; the total experience including intermissions is just under three hours. Today’s performance at SMTD is an excerpt\, anticipated as 90 minutes in length (about half the length of the total cycle).\n\n\"Inspired by each of Bach’s 27 movements\, I have created 27 pastel paintings using a mixture of soft pastels\, hard pastels\, sanded paper\, and alcohol. During the performance\, each piece is projected during its corresponding musical movement... Bach’s musical motives\, characters\, key areas\, compositional structures\, and hidden messages all serve as generative sources in this series. I conceive of each work as an entry in a 'musician’s sketchbook\,' this exhibit serving as a way of sharing my musical interpretive process rather than asserting any professional identity as a visual artist.\"\n– Nicholas DiEugenio\, January 2024\n\nPresented by the Department of Strings and the Stearns Collection of Musical Instruments\, with support from the Sally Fleming Master Class Fund.\n\nABOUT THE GUEST ARTIST\n\nViolinist NICHOLAS DIEUGENIO has been heralded for his “excellent...evocative” playing (*The New York Times*)\, full of “rapturous poetry” (*American Record Guide*). Nicholas is in-demand as a soloist\, chamber musician\, and ensemble leader\, creating powerful shared experiences in music ranging from early baroque to contemporary commissions. \n\nA core member of the Sebastians\, a period group hailed as “topnotch” by the *New Yorker* and “sharp-edged and engaging” by the *New York Times*\, Nicholas also performs and records with pianist and wife Mimi Solomon. Their award-winning duo project “Unraveling Beethoven” comprises a full cycle of the Beethoven violin sonatas along with response works from composers Tonia Ko\, Robert Honstein\, Jesse Jones\, Allen Anderson\, and D.K. Garner.\n\nHis Musica omnia recording of the complete Schumann violin sonatas with Chi-Chen Wu on fortepiano was named one of the Top 10 albums of 2015 by *The Big City*. His August 2017 release on the New Focus label with Mimi Solomon\, critically lauded as “a touching\, committed tribute” (*I Care If You Listen*)\, is an homage to the late Pulitzer Prize-winner Steven Stucky. The disc features Stucky’s Sonata for violin and piano\, two new works by Stucky’s students Jesse Jones and Tonia Ko\, and the previously unrecorded Violin Sonata of Robert Palmer.\n\nA two-time prize-winner at the prestigious Fischoff competition\, Nicholas is passionately committed to collaboration\, and has performed chamber music with Laurie Smukler\, Joel Krosnick\, Joseph Lin\, Peter Salaff\, and Ani Kavafian\, as well as members of the Meta4 Quartet. As a baroque and classical violinist\, he has performed with violinists Ingrid Matthews and Aislinn Nosky\, as well as members of Tafelmusik\, the Freiburg Baroque Orchestra\, Philharmonia Baroque\, and Orchestra of the Age of Enlightenment. He has also performed as guest Principal Second Violinist with the Saint Paul Chamber Orchestra. Nicholas is an alumnus of the Kneisel Hall Chamber Music Festival\, where he was deeply influenced by the musicianship of pianist Seymour Lipkin. At the same time\, Nicholas also strives to incorporate musical elements from some of his favorite rock icons such as Jimi Hendrix\, Anthony Kiedis\, and Thom Yorke. \n\nRooted in a deeply compassionate approach to teaching\, Nicholas is currently Associate Professor of Violin at UNC Chapel Hill\, and is co-artistic director of MYCO\, a non-profit chamber music organization for middle and high school students. Formerly Assistant Professor of Violin at the Ithaca College School of Music\, Nicholas continues as a faculty member of the Kinhaven Music School in Vermont during the summers. Nicholas holds degrees from the Cleveland Institute of Music (B.M\, M.M) and the Yale School of Music (D.M.A.\, A.D.)\, and he performs on a baroque violin made by Karl Dennis in 2011\, and also on an 1835 violin made by J.B. Vuillaume. \n\nwww.nicholasdieugenio.com \nFollow on IG and TikTok @dieu_violin UID:118783-21841611@events.umich.edu URL:https://events.umich.edu/event/118783 CLASS:PUBLIC STATUS:CONFIRMED CATEGORIES: LOCATION:Earl V.

Modernist Glass from the Polish Past DESCRIPTION:The glass in this rare collection represents the work of renowned Polish glass artists and designers created between 1960 and 1980. Known as Polskie szkło artystyczne (Polish art glass)\, the works were produced in glass factories in southern Poland and are a feature of many homes throughout Central Europe. The glass masters were trained in schools of art and design and many achieved international fame during their lifetimes. \n\nThe collectors\, Endi Poskovic and his wife Julie Anne Visco\, began acquiring the glass in 2015-16 while Endi was a Fulbright Scholar and Visiting Professor at the Jan Matejko Academy of Fine Arts in Kraków. Scouring flea markets\, antique shops\, and websites\, they continue to acquire pieces and build the collection to this day. We are grateful to them for making this remarkable exhibit possible at CCPS and WCEE.\n\nOrganized by the Copernicus Center for Polish Studies\, this exhibition is co-sponsored by the Penny W.

Camera as Passport: The Ship of Photographers DESCRIPTION:Starting in 1933 when Hitler and the Nazis came to power\, a cadre of European Jews—German\, Polish\, Hungarian\, Austrian\, French—discovered that a camera could be their passport\, first out of Germany and then out of Europe. Some of these women and men had been planning one type of career—lawyer\, journalist\, painter\, musician—but then realized that they needed to find another way to earn a living. Taking photographs presented a sufficiently malleable opportunity that not only allowed them to leave Germany and then Europe but also to have a means to sustain themselves in foreign countries where they did not necessarily speak the language.\n \n They did\, however\, mobilize the visual language of photography. For a number of these figures\, forced migration became an asset during the golden age of photojournalism wherein their portable services were employed to supply picture stories on the move and around the world. Many of these Jews became influential photographers\, shaping how their contemporaries saw the world. Looking back on their work\, we can see how they have influenced our understanding of the modern world even as we can recognize their photographs as a significant component of modern Jewish visual culture.\n \n Of the dozens of photographers who fled Europe\, eight escaped on a single ship. The S. S. Winnipeg sailed from Marseille\, France on May 7\, 1941. Germany had already conquered both eastern and western Europe and was poised to invade the Soviet Union. The United States was not yet in the war. Among the 750 refugees aboard were photographers from Hungary\, Belgium\, France\, and Germany: Ilse Bing\, Josef Breitenbach\, Boris Lipnitsky\, Charles Leirens\, Yolla Niclas\, Fred Stein\, Monie Tannen\, and Ylla (Camilla Henriette Koffler). During lifeboat drills\, they discovered each other. Some of them narrowly escaped Vichy France under the auspices of the American journalist Varian Fry and the New York-based Emergency Rescue Committee that helped so many Jewish and anti-Fascist artists get out of Europe in the nick of time.\n \n This exhibit introduces the University of Michigan to this intrepid group as exemplary case studies of the wide range of European photographers who used their cameras as passports to other worlds. It focuses first on their European experiences pre-emigration before turning to their escape from Europe on the S. S. Winnipeg (with three of them taking photos on board the ship). The exhibit concludes with examples of some of their initial photographic reactions to the new world\, seeing it through European eyes.\n \nIf there is anything we can do to make this event accessible to you\, please contact us. Please be aware that advance notice is necessary as some accommodations may require more time for the university to arrange.

In this exhibit\, internationally renowned Filipino artist Cian Dayrit acts as a counter-cartographer\, reclaiming mapmaking as an emancipatory activity.\n\nDayrit’s artworks\, embroidered on textiles or painted over collages of colonial-era maps\, plot the extraction of natural resources\, land grabbing\, and dispossession and displacement in his native Philippines. At the same time\, their resistant lines summon new imaginaries out of the overlaps between places and memories.\n\nDayrit’s practice is critically and practically informed by the narratives of Filipino communities. Items exhibited alongside his artwork are the result of map-drawing workshops the artist has convened with rural\, urban\, and indigenous communities across the Philippines. Propositions to Progress invites you to engage in the collaborative endeavor to activate alternative territories from the ground up.\n\nCian Dayrit is an interdisciplinary artist exploring colonialism and ethnography\, archaeology\, history\, and mythology. Dayrit subverts the language of the state\, museum\, and military to visualize the contradictions on which these institutions are built. He studied at the University of the Philippines.

It also honors one among them\, Fouad Abu Khammash\, who was killed in January 2024 in an Israeli bomb attack on Gaza.\n\n< The exhibit includes images of people suffering the aftermath of the ongoing violence. >\n\nThis exhibit was curated by Souq Stories team members Shareef Sarhan and Waed Abbas in partnership with U-M students Amir Marshi\, Zainab Hakim\, Mariam Odeh\, and Vivian M. Nguyen. It’s offered in conjunction with this year’s Palestine Awareness Week\, an annual series of educational events related to Palestinian history\, culture\, and politics. Presented in association with Insaniyyat: Society of Palestinian Anthropologists.

We hope to bring together a diverse set of critical interests and disciplines on a terrain where death and precarious (after)lives lay bare the politics of exclusion\, the erosion of memory\, and the ethical responsibilities that confront us in the face of current crises. Our graduate student-organized conference aims to foster interdisciplinary dialogues\; we welcome researchers\, independent scholars\, and artists to join us in exploring death\, rebirth\, and the in-between.\n\nFor our 28th annual conference\, the Comparative Literature Intra-student Faculty Forum (CLIFF) invites 15 minute presentations based in literary analysis\, critical theory\, history\, politics\, anthropology\, translation studies\, and interdisciplinary work. These presentations may take the form of academic papers\, creative work\, performance\, and/or visual media. \n\nWe are very pleased to announce that this year’s keynote speaker will be Dr. Luciana Chamorro\, professor of Anthropology at the University of Michigan. Dr. Chamorro is a socio-cultural anthropologist studying revolution and its afterlives in the Central American region and its diasporas. Her work includes research on political revolution and violence\, desire and affect\, generational difference\, states of exception\, and feminist and queer imaginaries of the future. \n\nIf you are planning to attend this event and need accommodations\, please notify the organizers by February 22\, 2024\, so that proper arrangements can be made. The organizers can be contacted at cliff.complit@umich.edu.\n\nOur conference is entirely organized by graduate students in the University of Michigan's Department of Comparative Literature. This year's organizing members are Arianna Afsari\, CC Barrick\, Delsa Lopez\, and Sanjana Ramanathan.

Both Malallah and Karim were significantly influenced by their mentors during and after their training in Iraq\, and continue to share their work and ideas with a new generation today.\n\nIn the United States\, Iraq is typically spoken about in a passive position: colonized\, under despotic rule\, occupied. Post-occupied. Through connections between mentors and students\, and students who became mentors to new students\, Iraqi artists have been a force for anti-colonialism\, claiming their heritage and its future for themselves.\n\nView the exhibit Monday-Friday in the Fine Arts Library\, Tappan Hall\, 855 S.

Pinto (School of Social Work) invites audiences to take part in an exhibition that examines his embodied gender states based on his intersecting childhood traumas and life experiences. In \"My Gender States\,\" Pinto shares his deep and abiding grief related to the childhood death of his sister and the subsequent gender embodiments that ensued stemming from the belief that he was his deceased sister. \n\nUsing autoethnography\, Pinto created a one-person play (\"Marília\,\" 2015) and site-specific installation performance (\"The Realm of the Dead\,\" 2022). These works explore the intersecting and shaping layers of childhood traumas\, gender states\, and his life experience—a story of the struggles\, fears\, and accomplishments he experienced as an immigrant to the United States. In \"Realm\,\" audiences circulated around 25 assemblage sculptures created from vintage suitcases and trunks that evoked the cemetery where Pinto’s sister was buried and the literal and figurative baggage that he\, a queer immigrant\, carried with him. \"My Gender States\" is a selection of materials\, images\, and texts from \"Marília\" and \"Realm\" curated to more closely examine the themes of gender and sexuality in these works. Collected are portrayals of Pinto’s gender states\, gender confusion\, gender embodiments\, gender doubt\, and reactions to gender stigma. \n\nRogério M. Pinto (Brazilian\, American\, b. 1965\, Belo Horizonte\, Brazil) is a University Diversity Social Transformation Professor\; Berit Ingersoll-Dayton Collegiate Professor of Social Work\; and Professor of Theatre and Drama\, School of Music\, Theatre & Dance\, at the University of Michigan. Pinto uses art-based methods to conduct community-engaged research in the United States and Brazil.\n\nThe photographs used in \"My Gender States\" are by Emerson Granillo (American\, b. 1987)\; David Newton (American\, b. 1993)\; and Nicholas Williams (American\, b. 1994). The \"Realm\" assemblages featured in \"My Gender States\" were conceived by Pinto and designed by him\, in collaboration with Sarah Tanner. \n\n\"My Gender States\" is on display in the Lane Hall Exhibit Space (first floor\, 204 S State St) from January 23\, to August 13\, 2024. The exhibit is free and open to the public\, M-F\, 9am-4pm.\n\nHosted by the Institute for Research on Women and Gender and the Women’s and Gender Studies Department.

Unlike previous U-M Library exhibits that focused on the artist at work\, this display shows him in informal and familial environments\, revealing a depth and complexity of character that are often overshadowed by his fame and professional achievements. The photographs and documents displayed showcase a variety of emotional tones — warmth\, humor\, tenderness\, and passion. Candid and relaxed more than posed\, they are similar to most people's pictures in old family albums.\n\nCulled from the Orson Welles-Beatrice Welles materials that are part of the Mavericks & Makers collection within the U-M Library’s Special Collections Research Center\, each photo or letter tells a story of a connection Welles held dearly. The materials included are from two periods: the late 1920s and early 1930s\, when Welles was a teenager\, and the mid-1950s to early 1960s\, during the early years of his marriage to his third wife\, Paola Mori. \n\nIt should be noted that Welles’s personal life was messy at best. Other collections housed at U-M that include personal materials related to Welles document his first and second marriages\, including the Welles-Feder Collection and the Wilson-Welles Collection. The items on display here were saved by his third and final child\, Beatrice Welles\, and reflect her childhood memories of her parents.\n\nThe exhibit is available during Hatcher Gallery Exhibit Room hours (https://umlib.us/hatchergalleryexhibits).

Whether designing furniture or developing the ideas for sculpture\, the process has always been the same. Ideas begin as\nscribbled images that are then stretched and refined with CAD software. At its core\, much of the work studies the manipulation of simple geometry. Dunn looks at the form from different forced perspectives – exploding\, augmenting\, slicing\, repeating\, and lighting. This body of work is a study of perception\, sympathy\, hierarchy\, and reality. The “We Are Virus” series is an adaptation from an initial design where it continued to evolve and adapt through manipulation of parts and scale.\n\nPeter Dunn received his BFA from Wayne State University and MFA from University of Michigan. He currently serves on faculty at College for Creative Studies UID:116532-21837330@events.umich.edu URL:https://events.umich.edu/event/116532 CLASS:PUBLIC STATUS:CONFIRMED CATEGORIES:Alumni,Art,Culture,Detroit,Exhibition,Humanities,Visual Arts LOCATION:North Campus Research Complex Building 18 - Rotunda Gallery CONTACT: END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20240221T153457 DTSTART;TZID=America/Detroit:20240308T090000 DTEND;TZID=America/Detroit:20240308T100000 SUMMARY:Presentation:Psychology Methods Hour: \"Illustrating a Critical Quantitative approach to measurement with MIMIC models\" DESCRIPTION:The emerging Critical Quantitative (Crit Quant) perspective is anchored by five guiding principles (i.e.\, foundation\, goals\, parity\, subjectivity\, and self-reflexivity) to mitigate racism and advance social justice. Within this broader methodological perspective\, sound measurement is foundational to the quantitative enterprise. Despite the problematic history of measurement\, it can be repurposed for critical and equitable ends. MIMIC (Multiple Indicator and Multiple Causes) models are a measurement strategy to simply and efficiently test whether a measure means the same thing and can be measured in the same way across groups (e.g.\, racial/ethnic and/or gender groups). This talk considers the affordances and limitations of MIMICs for critical quantitative methods\, by detecting and mitigating racial\, ethnic\, gendered\, and other forms of bias in items and in measures. Discussion topics will include the affordances of Crit Quant vs QuantCRiT (Quantitative Critical Race Theory) and how Crit Quant and MIMICs do (and don't) detect racism in psychological and social science measures.

Language Revitalization and Resurgence: The Case of Modern Armenian DESCRIPTION:13th Annual International Graduate Student Workshop in Armenian Studies\nLanguage Revitalization and Resurgence: The Case of Modern Armenian\nMarch 8-9\, 2024\nWeiser Hall 1010 / Zoom: 917 6925 4957\n\nOver the years\, the Center for Armenian Studies has fostered dialogue with graduate students around the globe through our annual graduate student workshops. Together with our faculty\, graduate students\, and visiting and post-doctoral fellows we have pushed scholarship in Armenian Studies in new directions through our collective efforts. \n\nThe Thirteenth Annual International Graduate Student Workshop will focus on various issues related to the modern Armenian language. Since the collapse of the Soviet Union and the establishment of Armenian independence\, de-Russification processes have allowed Eastern Armenian to gain an increasing presence in a variety of public institutions in the Republic of Armenia. At the same time\, the future of the many regional dialects of Armenia and Artsakh (Nagorno-Karabakh) remains uncertain\, in light of both the globalizing modern media environment and the region’s political precarity. In the diaspora\, Western Armenian has been in crisis mode\, even being declared an endangered language by UNESCO. Yet this crisis has also coincided with\, or even itself engendered\, somewhat of a resurgence\, as diaspora communities continue to search for innovative ways to make Western Armenian an everyday part of individuals’ lives. In both the Republic of Armenia and the diaspora\, different varieties of Armenian are constantly coming into contact with one another as well as with foreign languages such as English\, Russian\, and French. What effects have these circumstances had on Armenian and its speakers\, and what will be the future trajectory of the language? How has the linguistic landscape of the Republic of Armenian been affected by recent and ongoing sociopolitical upheavals? What are some of the novel methodologies being used to promote the maintenance and flourishing of Western Armenian\, and to what extent have these been successful? How are teachers of Armenian - both Eastern and Western - responding to this new transcultural moment that the language finds itself in? These are only some of the questions we hope to inform our discussion.\n\n\n*Friday\, March 8\, 2024*\n\n9:45 AM - 10:00 AM | Opening Remarks \nArakel Minassian (University of Michigan) Emma Portugal (University of Michigan) Gottfried Hagen (University of Michigan)\n\n10:00 AM - 12:00 PM | Panel I: Roots of Modern Armenian Literary Languages\nModerator: Jennifer Manoukian (University of California\, Irvine)\n\nEmma Avagyan (University of Michigan)\n Printed Perspectives: The Role of Periodicals in Armenian Language Evolution\n\nAram Ghoogasian (Princeton University)\nNew Tongues: The Armenian Language Question\, 1840s–1860s\n\nRoza Armen Melkumyan (National Academy of Sciences of the Republic of Armenia)\nLiterary-cultural significance of Van dialect in Gurgen Mahari's \"Burning Orchards\"\n\n12:00 PM - 1:00 PM | Lunch for Workshop Participants\n\n1:00 PM - 2:30 PM | Panel II: Eastern Armenian Dialects Today\nModerator: Michael Pifer (University of Michigan)\n\nHripsime Hrayr Khachatryan (Pázmány Péter Catholic University\, Budapest)\nThe Roots of Hadrut: Preserving the Hadrut Regional Dialect as a Critical Component of Armenian Identity\n\nEmma Portugal (University of Michigan)\nExamining the Maintenance of Dialect Features in Colloquial Urban ArmenianSpeech via Variationist Analysis of Vowels in Gavar\, Armenia\n\n2:30 PM - 2:45 PM | Break\n\n2:45 PM - 4:15 PM | Panel III: Contemporary Armenian Language Teaching and Research\nModerator: Talar Chahinian (University of California\, Irvine)\n\nAlexia Hatun (University of California\, Los Angeles)\nThe “Creative Literacy” Approach to Armenian Language Instruction: A Theoretical Analysis)\n\nAlexia Hatun (University of California\, Los Angeles) & Annika Topelian (University of Hawaiʻi at Mānoa)\nA Meta-Analysis of Contemporary Research in Armenian Linguistics: Presenting a New Research Initiative\n\n4:15 PM - 4:30 PM | Break\n\n4:30 PM - 6:00 PM | Keynote Lecture I\nShushan Karapetian (University of Southern California)\nFrom 'Linguistic Compartmentalization' to 'Language and Masculinity': The Evolution of an Idea\n\n*Saturday\, March 9. 2024*\n\n10:00 AM - 12:00 PM | Panel IV: Western Armenian: Past\, Present\, Future\nModerator: Ben Fortson (University of Michigan)\n\nAnnika Topelian (University of Hawaiʻi at Mānoa)\nWord Order Properties of Declaratives and Wh-Questions in Adult (Heritage) Western Armenian\n\nArthur Ipek (City University of New York)\nThe Task of the Lexicographer: A Multidisciplinary Approach to Comparative Lexicography and the Case of Western Armenian\n\nGeorge Balabanian (University of Pennsylvania)\nThe Development and Spread of Western Armenian Dialects\n\n12:00 PM - 1:30 PM | Lunch\n\n1:30 PM - 3:30 PM | Panel V: Armenian(s) in the Diaspora\nModerator: Shushan Karapetian (University of Southern California)\n\nJulianne Kapner (University of California\, Berkeley)\nIntroducing the Armenian Language in the Bay Area Project\n\nInessa Arustamyan (Pázmány Péter Catholic University\, Budapest)\nOne Language\, Many Voices: Interactions between Eastern and Western Armenian in Budapest\n\nSetrag Hovsepian (Arizona State University)\nAn Armenian School in Damascus - A Study of Visual Anthropology and Language Maintenance\n\n3:30 PM - 4:00 PM | Break\n\n4:00 PM - 5: 30 PM | Keynote Lecture II\nTalar Chahinian (University of California\, Irvine)\nKeeping Up With the Armenians: Contact Zones and Language Mobility in the Armenian World Today\n\nRegister here: https://umich.zoom.us/j/91769254957\n\nCosponsors: Department of Comparative Literature and Department of Linguistics\, Office of Research\, College of Literature\, Science\, and the Arts\n\nIf there is anything we can do to make this event accessible to you\, please contact armenianstudies@umich.edu.

Future Cache implicitly asks those who have benefited from the legacies of colonization to consider where they stand and where to go from here and seeks to foster a sense of belonging for displaced Indigenous peoples fighting for restitution.\n\nSpecial thanks to the Cheboiganing (Burt Lake) Band of Ottawa and Chippewa Indians\, Margaret Noodin\, and Richard A.

DESCRIPTION:Care in Uncertain Times\n \nAs crises of public health\, economic instability\, authoritarian regimes\, racial injustice\, and climate change spread around the globe\, millions are experiencing distress\, conflict\, uncertainty\, and vulnerability. This troubling combination of experiences is nothing new for Cambodians. Between 1975-1979\, when the Khmer Rouge ruled Cambodia\, about a quarter of the country’s populations died of infectious diseases\, weapon wounds\, and malnutrition.\n \nThis exhibition brings together more than 80 works of art spanning a millennium to present how the visual culture of Cambodia and its diaspora has evolved in the face of cultural upheaval. Showcasing works from worldwide collections\, including those from some of the foremost members of the Cambodian contemporary art scene\, Angkor Complex allows viewers to encounter the still-fresh scars of a genocide and critically appreciate the strategies evolved to nurture resilience in trying times.\n\nLead support for this exhibition is provided by the U-M Office of the Provost\, U-M Office of the President\, National Endowment for the Arts\, Michigan Arts and Culture Council\, Eleanor Noyes Crumpacker Endowment Fund\, and U-M Ross School of Business.\n  UID:114750-21833445@events.umich.edu URL:https://events.umich.edu/event/114750 CLASS:PUBLIC STATUS:CONFIRMED CATEGORIES:Art,Culture,Exhibition,Museum,Public Health,UMMA LOCATION:Museum of Art - A.

Collected for each course are objects that address the nature of materiality\, time\, and human interaction in relation to our environments\, our wars\, our relationships\, and our eccentricities. \n \nWorking in collaboration with University faculty\, the works in this exhibition were selected for their capacity to provoke engagement with the guiding questions and themes of their specific courses\, while also offering students inspiration for research and art projects in their areas of study. The exhibition demonstrates some of the diverse and creative ways art plays a central role in learning across the disciplines. It also asks us to consider what we can learn from art objects across an infinite variety of specialties and subject matter.\n \nAs classes begin in Fall of 2021\, you’ll be able to use these pages to explore the collections designed for each course\, dive into the works themselves\, and hear from the professors and students about how they are engaging with art and objects in new ways. Who knows\, maybe you’ll learn something surprising along the way\, too.\n\nLead support for this exhibition is provided by the University of Michigan Office of the Provost\, Erica Gervais Pappendick and Ted Pappendick\, and the Eleanor Noyes Crumpacker Endowment Fund\, and the Oakriver Foundation.\n  UID:86001-21795830@events.umich.edu URL:https://events.umich.edu/event/86001 CLASS:PUBLIC STATUS:CONFIRMED CATEGORIES:Art,Exhibition,Faculty,Museum,Nature,Research,UMMA LOCATION:Museum of Art - Eleanor Noyes Crumpacker Gallery CONTACT: END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20240208T102318 DTSTART;TZID=America/Detroit:20240308T100000 DTEND;TZID=America/Detroit:20240308T110000 SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Department Seminar Series: Éric Moulines\, Professor\, Department of Statistics\, Ecole Polytechnique DESCRIPTION:Abstract: The interest in using Denoising Diffusion Models (DDM) as priors for solving Bayesian inverse problems has increased rapidly in recent time. However\, sampling from the resulting posterior distribution is a challenge. To address this problem\, previous works have proposed approximations to skew the drift term of the diffusion. In this work\, we take a different approach and utilize the specific structure of the DDM prior to define a set of intermediate and simpler posterior sampling problems\, resulting in a lower approximation error compared to previous methods. We empirically demonstrate the reconstruction capability of our method for general linear inverse problems on the basis of synthetic examples and various image restoration tasks.

Even if all emissions ceased tomorrow\, atmospheric CO2 levels are already dangerously high and the climate would keep warming before it eventually stabilizes. We have to reduce or “capture” legacy CO2 to avert disaster. As the International Panel on Climate Change stated\, the *only* way we can meet our climate goal is to use carbon capture in our climate change fighting tool kit. \n\nMany of the products that we use every day are made with carbon. Treating legacy CO2 as a resource with economic value rather than a pollutant allows us to generate revenue while also fighting climate change. \n\nHowever\, not all uses or types of captured CO2 are equal in terms of environmental or economic benefits. This exhibit includes a video game that helps explain the pros and cons associated with different methods and applications of carbon capture. \n\nAdditionally\, it also provides examples of two types of carbon removal\, an interactive block activity\, and sample products made from captured CO2.

Choices about which artists you see in our galleries\, choices about what relevant facts we share about the works\, and choices about what - out of an infinite number of options - we don’t say about them.\n \nPieces in this exhibition were made at a time when the world came to be shaped by the ideologies of colonial expansion and Western domination. And yet\, that history and the stories of those marginalized do not readily appear in the still lives and portraits on display here. By grappling with what is visible and what remains hidden\, we are forced to examine whose stories and histories are prioritized and why.  \n \nIn this online exhibition\, you can explore our efforts to deeply question the Museum’s collection and our own past complicity in favoring colonial voices. In the Museum gallery\, which will open in early 2021\, you’ll be able to experience the changes we’re making to the physical space to highlight a more honest version of European and American history. \n \nBy challenging our own practice\, and continuing to add to what we know and what we write about the works we display\, UMMA tells a more complex and more complete story of this nation - one that unsettles\, and fails to settle for\, simple narratives. \n \n“Invisible things are not necessarily ‘not there’....

Consumers make inferences from previously searched objects to unsearched objects that are nearby in attribute space\, generating path dependence in search sequences. The estimated model rationalizes patterns in data on online consumer search paths: search tends to converge to the chosen product in attribute space\, and consumers take larger steps away from rarely purchased products. Eliminating spatial learning reduces consumer welfare by 13%: cross-product inferences allow consumers to locate better products in a shorter time. Spatial learning has important implications for product recommendations on retail platforms. We show that consumer welfare can be reduced by unrepresentative product recommendations and that consumer-optimal product recommendations depend both on consumer learning and competition between platforms.\n\nThis talk is presented by the Applied Microeconomics/Industrial Organization Seminar\, sponsored by the Department of Economics with generous gifts given through the Jean Coven Speakers Fund in Economics and the Economics Strategic Fund.

Weber\, Jr. 
Distinguished Lecture in Environmental and Energy Sustainability DESCRIPTION:\"Emerging Basic Science Questions Regarding Water Transport in Polymers for Water Purification\, Resource Recovery\, and Energy Applications\"\n\nJoin us in honor of Dr. Weber's remarkable 46-year legacy at the University of Michigan\, where his impact as a scientist\, educator\, and mentor truly shaped the field of environmental engineering. Celebrated as one of the \"One Hundred Engineers of the Modern Era\" by the American Institute of Chemical Engineers\, his esteemed career is an inspiration to us all. Don't miss this opportunity to connect at the lecture that continues his tradition of excellence and innovation and encourage your students to do the same! \n\nAbstract:\nThis presentation will focus on a foundational question regarding the transport mechanism of small molecules through polymers for liquid separations\, specifically water transport through membranes being used or considered for use in\, for example\, desalination\, resource recovery\, and fuel cell membranes. Historically\, the transport of small molecules\, such as gases\, water\, ions\, organic solutes\, etc. through dense membranes that do not have fixed\, permanent pores spanning the membrane\, is described by the solution-diffusion model. In this model\, small molecules partition from a contiguous fluid phase into the membrane\, and the membrane/fluid interface is at thermodynamic equilibrium\, so equilibrium partitioning of solutes into membranes can be modeled using the machinery of thermodynamics. The rate limiting step for transport in virtually all membranes is the diffusion of the small molecules through the membrane\, typically drive by a concentration gradient\, electric field\, or both. Water will permeate through a membrane under the influence of a hydrostatic pressure difference. That is\, a membrane exposed to a high hydrostatic pressure on one side and a low hydrostatic pressure on the other will permeate water from the high pressure to low pressure side of the membrane. This phenomenon is commonly observed in\, for example\, desalination membranes\, such as reverse osmosis membranes. The solution-diffusion model uses thermodynamic principles to link the pressure difference across the membrane to a concentration gradient in the membrane\, with water permeation occurring because of Fickian diffusion of water down its concentration gradient in the membrane.\n\nIn the past few years\, studies have been published purporting to demonstrate that\, in fact\, water transport through such membranes is governed by a pore flow model\, where water transport is presumed to occur via a network of interconnected\, water-filled subnanometer channels or pores\, with water flowing through the pores due to the imposed hydrostatic pressure difference across the membrane. Such pores are presumed to be too small to observe directly by any known technique\, so evidence for this hypothesis comes indirectly from (primarily) water transport data and computer simulations.\n\nA dispositive distinguishing feature between the solution-diffusion and pore flow models is the existence of a water concentration gradient inside a membrane subjected to a hydrostatic pressure gradient. In the solution-diffusion mechanism\, the hydrostatic pressure difference across the membrane induces a water concentration gradient inside the membrane\, and in the pore flow model\, no such concentration gradient would be observed. Therefore\, we have conducted experimental studies to directly measure the water concentration as a function of distance through a series of polymer membranes\, including cellulose acetate\, Nafion\, and crosslinked hydrogels based on poly(ethylene oxide) under hydrostatic pressure differences as high as 200 bar or more. Our studies show distinct concentration gradients in all of the membrane materials considered\, with the flux and concentration gradients well-described by Fick’s law of diffusion and conventional solution thermodynamics.\n\nSpeaker Bio: \nBenny Freeman is the William J.

A Zoom option is also provided.\n\nSeminar Description:\nMinimizing the energy of a many-body system is a fundamental problem in many fields. Although we hope a quantum computer can help us solve this problem better than classical computers\, we have a very limited understanding of where a quantum advantage may be found. In this talk\, I will present some recent theoretical advances that shed light on quantum advantages in this domain. First\, I describe rigorous analyses of the Quantum Approximate Optimization Algorithm applied to minimize energies of classical spin glasses. For certain families of spin glasses\, we find the QAOA has a quantum advantage over the best known classical algorithms. Second\, we study the problem of finding a local minimum of the energy of quantum systems. While local minima are much easier to find than ground states\, we show that finding a local minimum under thermal perturbations is computationally hard for classical computers\, but easy for quantum computers.

Unlike crystalline materials\, the packing structure in a disordered material is often hard to describe mathematically\, which prohibits us from understanding the deformation from a structure-property point of view. In this presentation\, I will first present experimental results of the deformation of a layer of granular particles floating at an air-oil interface\, through which I can demonstrate the elasto-plastic nature of deformation in the quasi-static regime. Based on the experimental results\, a machine learning-based modeling framework was developed based on the interplay between elasticity\, packing structure\, and quasi-localized rearrangements of particles. The model can capture a ductile-to-brittle transition observed in the experimental system due to the change of particle properties.\n\nIn the second part of the talk\, I will demonstrate the implications of the complex mechanical behaviors of granular materials for locomotion. In this problem\, granular matter can be considered as a soft and yielding medium that interacts with a deforming body. I will show experimentally that a scallop-like swimmer with reciprocally flapping wings generates locomotion in granular matter\, which is often not possible in Newtonian liquids at low Reynolds numbers. We use X-ray imaging and discrete element method simulations to reveal the microscopic picture of how the wings interact with surrounding particles. The locomotion is enabled by a prolonged hysteresis in the material response that originates from a combination of jamming-induced material rigidity and plastic deformation of the free surface. Cooperative effects are observed when the two wings are in close proximity\, which potentially involves interaction of zones with jammed particles as well as heap building on the free surface.\n\nContact: Silas Alben UID:114767-21833582@events.umich.edu URL:https://events.umich.edu/event/114767 CLASS:PUBLIC STATUS:CONFIRMED CATEGORIES:Mathematics LOCATION:East Hall - 1084 CONTACT: END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20240304T001005 DTSTART;TZID=America/Detroit:20240308T150000 DTEND;TZID=America/Detroit:20240308T160000 SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Compactification of the Hurwitz Scheme DESCRIPTION:We are motivated by the following problem: which curves are d-sheeted covering spaces of the projective line? We discuss the moduli space of d-sheeted coverings\, the *Hurwitz Scheme\,* together with a particular compactification due to Mumford and Harris. This compactification\, and its relationship to the compactification of the moduli space of genus g curves\, allows us to use graph-theoretic tools to help determine whether certain general curves are d-sheeted coverings of P^1.

We also have plausible candidates for UV physics that reconciles General Relativity with Quantum Mechanics. But there is also Bad News: Decoupling - which beautifully explains why low-energy measurements are largely insensitive to UV details - seems a central organizing feature of Nature that thwarts the extraction of fundamental insights about UV physics from astrophysical or cosmological observations. This talk argues that all is not lost because some UV features can penetrate the decoupling barrier in interesting ways. In particular generic accidental symmetries can robustly point to the existence of scalars in the low-energy effective theory (and these are not just axions). Normally we are taught that naturalness arguments preclude these scalars from being light enough or too weakly coupled to be important for tests of gravity\, but I argue that the additional information that the observed Dark Energy is so small puts us in a regime where some scalars are pseudo-dilatons (ie naturally light with Brans-Dicke couplings to matter). The question of why these scalars are not already detected motivates more detailed studies of whether screening mechanisms exist that could have hidden them from present-day tests of gravity. Crucially they must do so in a way consistent with other properties of UV completions of gravity (in a way that standard screening mechanisms - like Chameleons - are not). The talk describes new proposals for such UV-consistent screening mechanisms and why they thread a blind spot in current theoretical approaches to testing gravity. If time permits I will also explore other implications these models might have\, including possible relevance to other problems like the Hubble tension.

These tori cover almost all of the cluster variety\, but not quite all of it\; the \"deep locus\" is the part of the cluster variety which is not in any cluster torus. In joint work with Marco Castronovo\, Mikhail Gorsky and José Simental Rodríguez\, we conjecture a description of the deep locus\, and prove it for braid varieties on 2 and 3 strands. In this talk\, I will explain our conjecture\, and I will make clear what combinatorial problem we'd need to solve in order to prove this result for all braid varieties. I will not assume that the audience has seen cluster varieties or braid varieties before and\, indeed\, I hope that this talk will serve as a good introduction to those topics.

In my talk I will describe a new method for modeling joints that allows for testing of hypotheses about articular cartilage morphology in extinct taxa. Our case study examines the left elbow of the sauropod dinosaur Dreadnoughtus schrani using articular cartilage reconstructions constrained by extant phylogenetic bracketing (EPB). EPB investigations of alligator and chicken articular cartilage revealed the presence of a spherical anterior projection of cartilage on the distal humerus which articulates with the radius during flexion. Importantly\, this shape does not directly mirror the underlying bone. I will present the results of multibody dynamic modeling of three alternative cartilage reconstructions based on these EPB findings which differ in mediolateral placement of a cartilage sphere and its anteroposterior thickness\, encompassing a range of possibilities for the condition in Dreadnoughtus. Each model\, include of two EPB taxa\, produced distinct results that were generally similar\, supporting this modeling methodology. Based on these findings\, we predict that Dreadnoughtus\, and presumably other extinct archosaurs\, had a spherical projection of cartilage on the anterior face of the distal end of the humerus for articulation with the radius. Future studies applying these methods within a quantitative hypothesis-testing framework can advance the field of paleobiology by testing hypotheses relating shape and kinematics that are not possible with prescribed joint motions.

We apologize for any inconvenience.\n\nOn March 29\, 2023\, the Delhi Art Gallery (DAG) announced its purchase of the modernist painter Jamini Roy’s house as India’s first professionally run private single artist museum—the Jamini Roy House Museum. Contrary to this statement by the DAG\, the conversion of artists’ homes into museums has a longer history in India.\n \n But more significantly\, the announcement is a helpful reminder that the history of the house museum remains largely unexplored in the context of South Asia. If the Industrial Revolution\, the rise of the modern state\, and colonial conquests gradually lent new value to the private homes of illustrious figures as publicly accessible sites for the acquisition and display of various kinds of collections in Europe and the United States\, the reanimation of the house as a museum is tied to the decline of colonialism and the articulation of nationalisms in South Asia. In a departure from the imaginary of the historic house or personal collection that anchors dominant accounts of the European and/or American house museum\, the conversion of homes of Indian royal\, literary\, political\, and cinematic icons into museums is often centered on memorializing the public life and authority of the deceased individual. Here\, their domestic space and effects are represented as a site of reverence with recourse to religious and secular modes of exhibition\, which speaks to the museum’s place in an expanded field of South Asian visual culture and public remembrance.\n \n By attending to the layered histories and varied modes of display that characterize particular “memorial homes” and other houses as museums in India\, this talk will undertake a processual engagement with the houseness of the house museum\, highlighting its potential to illuminate the densities of the relationship between museums and public culture in postcolonial South Asia.\n \n Tankha is an art historian of modern and contemporary South Asia. His research is focused on the relationship between aesthetics\, politics\, and postcolonialism in India. In his current book project\, tentatively titled “Nagaland and the Art of Indigenous Presence in Postcolonial South Asia\,” he explores the slippage that craft objects\, memorial monuments\, and house museums perform across ritual and secular domains of practice\, the tensions that characterize this border-crossing\, and what that tells us about the contemporaneity of art and the political significance of the aesthetic in the Indigenously-inhabited\, predominantly Christian\, and contested state of Nagaland in northeast India.\n \n His research and teaching draw on his graduate studies in art history and anthropology\, ethnographic research on museums\, archival research on photography and modern and contemporary art in India\, and teaching in universities and independent educational institutions in India\, the University of Toronto\, and Yale University.\n \n His work has appeared in Marg\, Trans Asia Photography\, Lalit Kala Contemporary\, IIC Quarterly\, and in the books\, The Artful Pose: Early Studio Photography in Mumbai c.1855-1940 (Mapin Publishing\, 2010) and No Touching\, No Spitting\, No Praying: the museum in South Asia\, edited by Saloni Mathur & Kavita Singh (Routledge\, 2015).\n \n Made possible with the generous support of the Title VI grant from the U.S. Department of Education.

Steady.

Steady. Still.* is a diverse 60-minute show with original lighting design by Mary Cole. \n\nFree tickets are available at the door starting one hour before the performance. Doors open at 7:30 and the show starts promptly at 8pm with no intermission. This performance is made possible through generous support from University of Michigan-Ann Arbor’s School of Music\, Theatre & Dance.\n\nKiana “KC” Cook will present a work on her identity development as a mixed-race child turned woman entitled\, *Steady Searchin’ for My Halo*. Scott Crandall’s *Cousin Lizzie’s First Birthday* is an experiment in how to lengthen and shrink the distance between performer and audience\, and between the audience members from each other. Leah Crosby’s *Tenderizing* uses junk shop technology to tell stories about learning how to be taken care of. It is an illustrated podcast\, it is a puppet show… It is basically a really emo powerpoint presentation. Ginny Jiang’s piece is filled with seemingly ridiculous\, abnormal\, unsafe\, wary\, probing actions which hint at the character of a person's body and movements. Inspired by acts of self-navigation and resistance\, Ginny delves into the wilderness of thought and the meaning of wild\, free-growing vitality through the power of vision and figuration. Timothy Tsang is debuting a solo as a tribute to the memory of Brian Anthony Moczygemba.\n\nAccessibility: ADA accessible\nContent Rating: PG-13 for mild language\n\nABOUT THE ARTISTS\n \nKIANA “KC” COOK is a multidisciplinary artist\, cultural producer\, and practitioner of street and social dance forms from the African diaspora.

They are a daydream creator interested in the empathetic potential of fantasy\, the use of play and pleasure\, the activation of public spaces\, and designing participatory events. With cheeky humor and a flair for the devastating\, they use audio\, performance\, and games to make work that is hilariously sad. They are an MFA candidate at the Penny Stamps School of Art and Design.\n \nLINGJING (GINNY) JIANG is a site-oriented artist\, educator\, filmmaker\, choreographer and dancer\, MFA student at the University of Michigan.

After a decade in Shanghai\, he returned to the Chicago suburbs to complete high school and obtained his BA in Dance from Columbia College Chicago. Many of Tsang’s choreographic endeavors since have centered around inquiries into identity\, contributing to a deeper connection with cultural narratives that shape his identity as a queer Chinese-American artist. Currently\, Tsang is a graduate student at the University of Michigan\, focusing his studies on exploring the intersections between cultures\, identities\, and dance\, with the goal of further developing a multidisciplinary practice and refining his voice as a Queer Chinese-American artist.

We are excited to start off Astronomy night with a feature talk from U-M Astronomy Professor Emily Rauscher called Weird and Wacky Weather on Extrasolar Worlds.\n\nMany of the exoplanets that have been found orbiting around nearby stars have atmospheres completely unlike any in our Solar System. The most extreme examples have supersonic winds\, clouds made of mineral and metallic dust\, and even electrical currents flowing through the gas. Prof. Rauscher will discuss how we learn about these extreme examples of weather\, from both observations and computer models.\n\nTalk begins at 8PM and will be followed by tours at 8:30PM through the historic Detroit Observatory and\, if weather permits\, night sky observing through the historic Fitz Telescope.\n\nYou may purchase a ticket for either the talk plus telescope observing or just for telescope observing.
