SUMMARY:Building the Gacaca Digital Archive
DESCRIPTION:UMSI welcomes guest speaker Jean-Damascène Gasanabo\, PhD\, former Director General of the Research and Documentation Center on Genocide at the Rwanda National Commission for the Fight against Genocide (CNLG). \nThe presentation will take place at the School of Information in North Quad Space 2435 and online. \nWatch online via Zoom \nAbstract\nAfter the 1994 Genocide against the Tutsi in Rwanda\, more than 130\,000 inmates were imprisoned and accused of genocide crimes. The country was operating through fire and blood! The judicial system was destroyed – judges and lawyers had been killed or exiled in neighboring countries. To judge the genocidaires\, the government decided to reintroduce the Traditional Jurisdictions Courts called Gacaca. This talk will emphasize what Gacaca did as a court and how it worked during the trials; the digitization process of the 45 million pages of Gacaca files; and the impact of the Gacaca files on society after the digitization. \nSponsored by the University of Michigan School of Information Data\, Archives\, and Information Seminar; African Studies Center; Museum Studies Program; Ethics\, Society and Computing; and Franklin Innovator Residency Fund. \nSpeaker bio \nWith a PhD in education from the University of Geneva\, I have substantial experience working with the United Nations\, international non-governmental organizations\, non-profit organizations\, and governments on projects related to equitable and sustainable education curricula. As the Director General of the Research and Documentation Center on Genocide at the Rwanda National Commission for the Fight against Genocide (CNLG)\, I managed and led research projects as well as designed\, implemented\, monitored\, and assessed projects related to the Genocide against the Tutsi. Key projects included the digitization of forty-five million pages and four thousand audio-visual materials from Rwanda’s Gacaca Courts\, the preservation of textiles at the Nyamata genocide memorial site\, the preservation of bodies at the Murambi genocide memorial site\, and the preservation of artifacts in six other national genocide memorial sites in Rwanda. Between 2013 and 2015\, I also participated in a team responsible for designing Rwanda’s new national education curriculum for history and civic education. I am currently a Consultant with the International Labour Organization (ILO) for their Accelerator Lab 8.7 Program\, which provides funding and support to international organizations with innovative solutions to tackle child labor\, forced labor\, and human trafficking.

SUMMARY:Genocide Ideology and Denial in Rwanda
DESCRIPTION:UMSI welcomes guest speaker Jean-Damascène Gasanabo\, PhD\, former Director General of the Research and Documentation Center on Genocide at the Rwanda National Commission for the Fight against Genocide (CNLG). \nThe presentation will take place at the School of Information in North Quad Space 2435 and online. \nPlease RSVP for lunch \nWatch online via Zoom \nAbstract\nDespite the unequivocal evidence that the 1994 Genocide against the Tutsi occurred in Rwanda\, some still endeavour to expunge that atrocity from historical records. All genocide starts with a destructive ideology and followed afterwards by denial. This talk will re-examine the concepts of genocide ideology and denial\, how they are linked and how they contributed to the killings of Tutsi from 1959 up to 1994. Available literature as well as recent cases will be thoroughly analyzed\, both at local and international level\, to understand different forms and trends of genocide ideology and denial\, with specific emphasis on the Rwandan case. \nSponsored by the University of Michigan School of Information Data\, Archives\, and Information Seminar; African Studies Center; Museum Studies Program; Ethics\, Society and Computing; and Franklin Innovator Residency Fund. \nSpeaker bio \nWith a PhD in education from the University of Geneva\, I have substantial experience working with the United Nations\, international non-governmental organizations\, non-profit organizations\, and governments on projects related to equitable and sustainable education curricula.

SUMMARY:Digitizing the Dodo: Three-Dimensional Digitization for Research and Public Outreach at the Oxford University Museum of Natural History
DESCRIPTION:Please join us for a Museums at Noon conversation! \nDigitizing the Dodo: Three-Dimensional Digitization for Research and Public Outreach at the Oxford University Museum of Natural History  \nPresenter:  Taylor West (PhD candidate\, Ecology & Evolutionary Biology) \nDate:  Friday\, December 2 \nTime:  12:00 pm \nLocation:  Online via Zoom (Meeting ID: 967 1734 9337 / Passcode 598980) \nThe Oxford University Museum of Natural History began a large redisplay project in April of this year\, with the goal of developing and installing 20 new permanent exhibits in the main court of the Museum. I traveled to Oxford University for my UM Museum Studies practicum to digitize these new displays using structured light scanning technology to create interactive\, 3-D models of the objects located within the new exhibits. This project aims to improve both public access to the OUMNH museum space and also begin a digital collection for researchers at Oxford University and beyond. \nMuseums@Noon_West

SUMMARY:Museum Collections: Considering Access & Transparency through Visible Storage
DESCRIPTION:In recent years\, museums have increasingly turned to open storage techniques to display parts of their collection which would otherwise not be on public view.  Though this approach still feels somewhat radical\, the concept of visible storage in museum practice started at the University of British Columbia’s Museum of Anthropology in the 1970’s and\, in the intervening decades\, has expanded and evolved with examples seen around the world.  Recently\, significant new “open storage” projects have appeared regularly\, notably the Depot Boijmans van Beuningen which opened in Rotterdam in 2021 and the Victoria & Albert’s new East Storehouse in Stratford\, east London\, slated to open in 2024.  The foundations for this decades-long trend are found in the impulse to democratize museums and to make available the depth and breadth of collections typically hidden away in museum vaults.  The increased transparency that visible storage brings to museums has been touted as one way to make collections more accessible to their communities. \nFor this conversation on open and visible storage in museums\, the University of Michigan’s Museum Studies Program is delighted to welcome Susan Rowley\, Director\, Museum of Anthropology\, University of British Columbia\, and Bridget Callahan\, Luce Foundation Center Program Coordinator\, Smithsonian Institution. Guided by these two museum professionals\, we will explore the history of “visible” collections storage and how technology and new considerations of democratized access have changed the design and use of museum holdings.  Questions of ethics\, equity\, standards of care\, and programming will also be addressed. \n  \nPanelists: \nBridget Callahan – Coordinator\, Luce Foundation Center Program\, Smithsonian Institution (Washington\, D.C.) \nSusan Rowley – Director\, Museum of Anthropology\, University of British Columbia (Vancouver\, Canada) \nModerator: \nDeirdre Hennebury\, Associate Director\, UM Museum Studies Program \n\nRegistration for this webinar is required. \n\nThis panel discussion will be presented online via Zoom and will feature real time captioning.  If you would like to request an ASL interpreter\, please email ummsp@umich.edu by November 1. \n\nVisible Storage and Museum Access_flyer

SUMMARY:Working with Contemporary Artists: A Workshop with Ferran Barenblit
DESCRIPTION:“Art is what makes life more interesting than art\,” said French artist Robert Filliou. He was right: working with contemporary artists is one of the most enriching activities that a professional or an organization can undertake. Whether in a museum\, other cultural institution\, or any public or private position\, working with artists will unleash interpretations and emotions. In a globally interconnected\, culturally diverse\, and increasingly complex world\, contemporary artists give voice to the varied and changing cultural landscape of identities\, values\, and beliefs. Their work is always at the crossroad of theory\, subjects\, concepts\, methods\, and materials. The increasing role of audiences can generate unexpected results that can benefit both individuals and communities. \nIn this workshop\, we will study the conceptual\, practical\, ethical\, legal\, and financial elements to consider when working with contemporary artists. We will also examine many successful (and a few unfortunate) examples that will help us to understand how art\, according to Yoko Ono\, makes us “walk a half an inch above ground.” \nThe workshop is open to students\, faculty\, and museum professionals. Please sign up here if you are planning to attend the workshop. Ferran Barenblit is an internationally recognized museum director and curator who has led three art museums in the last twenty years\, including MACBA Museum of Contemporary Art Barcelona (2015-2021). He is an expert with a deep understanding of the political and social complexities of art museums and the need to consider them as an essential catalyst for engaged citizenship. Ferran has worked with artists Christian Marclay\, Raqs Media Collective\, Forensic Architecture\, Akram Zaatari\, Andrea Fraser\, Jeremy Deller\, Teresa Margolles\, Rabih Mroué\, Halil Altindere\, Cristina Lucas\, Maria Eichhorn\, and Jiri Kowanda\, among many others. Since 2021\, Ferran has held the position of visiting professor at the University of Michigan. His current curatorial projects include the 16th Cuenca Biennial\, Ecuador (2023) and a major retrospective of the work of Ben Vautier (MUAC\, Mexico City\, 2022-2023).

SUMMARY:10 Questions for Henry Ford
DESCRIPTION:10 Questions for Henry Ford is a documentary art film that examines the controversial life and legacy of the world’s most famous industrialist. A carefully researched combination of historical fact and poetic imagining\, the film draws on newspaper interviews\, archival film\, oral histories\, and Henry Ford’s personal notebooks to contrast the popular Ford myth with a far more complicated reality. \nStarring acclaimed actor John Lepard as the lingering ghost of Henry Ford\, 10 Questions investigates Ford’s often sanitized place in American History\, and reveals disturbing parallels between the Age of Ford\, and our world today. \nPlease join us for a discussion of the film\, and of the issues it raises\, with filmmaker Andy Kirshner and a distinguished panel of scholars from the University of Michigan. \nThe panel event will be moderated by Professor Angela Dillard (History\, Afroamerican and African Studies)\, and will include Professors Kerstin Barndt (German\, Museum Studies)\, William Calvo-Quíros (American Culture\, Art & Design)\, and Deborah Dash Moore (History\, Judaic Studies.) There will also be an opportunity for questions from the audience. \nThe “10 Questions for Henry Ford” film can be viewed here. \n \n

SUMMARY:In Process: A Symposium in Honor of Ray Silverman
DESCRIPTION:Colleagues\, students\, and members of the community are invited to join in celebrating Ray Silverman’s retirement from his position as Professor of History of Art\, African Studies\, and Museum Studies with a two-day symposium at the University of Michigan in Ann Arbor. Inspired by Dr. Silverman’s seminal volume\, Museums as Process: Translating Local and Global Knowledges (Routledge 2014)\, the symposium invites discussion about methodologies\, challenges\, and benefits of undertaking scholarship\, museum work\, and creative production through collaboration and community engagement. We ask\, what does it mean for the process of collaboration to be an end in itself\, and how might this perspective shift values in the academy and beyond? \nThe program will begin on the afternoon of Friday\, September 30 and end late-afternoon on Saturday\, October 1\, 2022. It will be an in-person event taking place in the Helmut Stern Auditorium at the U-M Museum of Art (UMMA). \nSpeakers: \nKelly Askew\, University of Michigan\nDaniel Berhanemeskel\, artist\nDonald Buaku\, City of Houston\nGeoff Emberling\, University of Michigan\nRobert Glew\, Michigan State University\nErica Lehrer\, Concordia University\, Montreal\nAllison Martino\, Indiana University\nPrita Meier\, New York University\nDerek Peterson\, University of Michigan\nFranc Nunoo-Quarcoo\, University of Michigan\nHeran Sereke-Brhan\, DC Commission on the Arts & Humanities\nCarla Sinopoli\, University of New Mexico\nNeal Sobania\, Pacific Lutheran University \nThe complete symposium schedule can be viewed here. \nCo-sponsorship provided by the University of Michigan African Studies Center\, Museum of Art\, Museum of Natural History\, Museum Studies Program and the Departments of History of Art and Afroamerican and African Studies

SUMMARY:Engaging with Campus Collections - Digital Interpretation and Curation at UMMA & the Stearns Collection
DESCRIPTION:Museums@Noon – Friday\, April 15 at 12:00 pm \nEngaging with Campus Collections – Digital Interpretation and Curation at UMMA & the Stearns Collection \n  \nIsabelle Gillet\, PhD candidate in the History of Art \nMuting the Museum’s Omniscient Narrator\n\nWhy do we trust museum labels even when they sound like they were written by a disengaged but knowledgeable AI? Instead\, can we rely on an “I” to guide our eye through the galleries? This talk will reflect on an eighteen-month fellowship at the University of Michigan Museum of Art and focus on its main accomplishment: Insight. Insight is an online collection of essays\, curated to share insightful\, individual\, and informative responses to works from the museum’s collection. This research outreach project elevates museum interpretation with personal narratives and experiences. \n  \nChuyi Zhu\, PhD candidate in Ethnomusicology \nMuseums in the Pandemic: Virtual Exhibits\, Experience Design\, and Innovative Collaborations \nIn the presentation\, I will talk about two virtual exhibitions I worked on as an intern of the Stearns Collection of Musical Instruments at the University of Michigan. The first virtual exhibition\, which I planned\, designed\, and produced in 2021\, focuses exclusively on the UM Javanese Gamelan. The second exhibition\, which I helped curate in 2022\, focuses more generally on representing the entire Stearns Collection. In the talk\, I will also highlight our collaborations with CultureVerse\, a non-profit organization based in Ann Arbor\, and our use of Saganworks\, a digital tool and cyberspace that creates virtual reality rooms for multidimensional knowledge and visual storytelling. \n  \nRegister for this Zoom webinar. \n  \nGillet and Zhu_BrownBag

SUMMARY:“Proregress”: the allure of a word - Cuauhtémoc Medina
DESCRIPTION:“Proregress”: the allure of a word \nLooking back at the 12th Shanghai Biennale (2018-2019) with Cuauhtémoc Medina \nFriday\, March 25 from 4:00 – 5:30 pm \nModern Languages Building\, Room 1220 \n  \nThis lecture will discuss the curatorial strategies of the 12th Shanghai Biennale\, inspired by a neologism invented by E. E. Cummings in the 1930’s: “Proregress.”  Among other issues\, the presentation will discuss the strategies by which the curatorial team of the exhibition addressed the contemporary situation of the world based on the ambivalence of contemporary ideologies\, also considering the task of circumventing the intellectual and artistic controls of contemporary China. \nAdditional details can be found here. \nCuauhtémoc Lecture Poster \n  \nCo-sponsored by the Department of Romance Languages & Literatures\, Museum Studies Program\, and Penny W. Stamps School of Art & Design
