  • AMANDA MEANS: LIGHT YEARS
  • Location: > See description for location
  • Contact: > See Description for contact information
  • Description: University of Massachusetts Dartmouth is delighted to host a career survey of the work of renowned U.S. artist Amanda Means at the University Art Gallery in Star Store Campus, Downtown New Bedford. For over forty years, Amanda Means has created a body of work that has pushed the boundaries of the photographic medium with her celebrated Leaf, Flower, Water Glass, and Light Bulb series of images. Means has been a darkroom innovator throughout her career: adapting a 19th century camera for use as an enlarger, photographing objects without the use of negatives, working with a large-format Polaroid camera, and creating a series of remarkable abstracts working only with light and photographic materials. The artist's darkroom alchemy was cited by the Guggenheim Foundation in awarding Means their prestigious Fellowship in 2017 for her contribution to contemporary photography. Our survey exhibition, Means' first retrospective, includes examples of work from all phases of her career. Alongside key pieces from her color Polaroid Light Bulb and silver gelatin Water Glass works, we are excited to be showing some of the artist's early prints and works on paper, as well as important examples of her black and white Flower and Light Bulb works. This affords a unique opportunity to view Means' most celebrated images in the broader context of her overall practice. Amanda Means is a graduate of Cornell University and SUNY Buffalo, and is a 2017 Guggenheim Fellow, awarded for her contribution to contemporary photography. She has exhibited widely in the U.S. and abroad, and her work is included in numerous collections including the Whitney Museum of American Art; the San Francisco Museum of Modern Art; the Los Angeles County Museum of Art; the Museum of Fine Arts in Boston; the MIT List Visual Arts Center; the Albright-Knox Art Gallery, Buffalo, N.Y.; and the Nicola Erni Collection, Switzerland. The artist is represented by JHB Gallery, New York, and lives and works in Beacon, New York.

  • Can you see us now? A Diversity, Equity, & Inclusivity Ceramics Symposium
  • Location: CVPA: College of Visual and Performing Arts , 285 Old Westport Road, Dartmouth, MA
  • Cost: Free
  • Contact: > See Description for contact information
  • Description: Artists Highlight Legacy of Colonialism in 2-Day Symposium The University of Massachusetts Dartmouth Ceramics Club is proud to present: Can you see us now? A Diversity, Equity, & Inclusivity Ceramics Symposium, October 12th and 13th. Three contemporary artists, Natalia Arbelaez, Leila Babirye, and Courtney M. Leonard will create and discuss their investigations of ancestral origin, personal identity, and the legacy of colonization. All three artists will demonstrate their techniques, present slide lectures of their work, and participate in a panel discussion. Demonstrations will take place in the tents behind the CVPA building at the main campus. The artists will present their slide lectures and participate in a panel discussion, moderated by Dr. Pamela Karimi, in the Grand Reading Room, 122, in the Claire T. Carney library. We will have an open dialogue about making personal ceramic work, issues facing today's and future generations of BIPOC-LGBTQ artists and encouraging critical discourse and sharing the issues and challenges of being a BIPOC-LGBTQ artist and interfacing with systems such as art institutions, including academia. This is a free event! Don't miss out on this unique opportunity! Everyone is welcome and encouraged to attend! SCHEDULE TUESDAY, OCTOBER 12 9:00-12:30 Artist Demonstrations in tents behind the CVPA 12:30-1:30 Lunch break on site 1:30-3:30 Artist Demonstrations in tents behind the CVPA 3:30-5:00 Artist Slide Presentations in the Library's Grand Reading Room, 122 WEDNESDAY, OCTOBER 13 9:00-12:30 Artist Demonstrations in tents behind the CVPA 12:30-1:30 Lunch break on site 1:30-3:30 Artists Panel Discussion in the Library's Grand Reading Room, 122 Symposium concludes ABOUT THE ARTISTS Natalia Arbelaez is a Columbian American artist, born and raised in Miami, Florida, to immigrant parents. Her terracotta sculptures often involve figures interacting with one another or conveying emotion with their facial expressions. She draws from her Colombian family's immigration story to tell a larger cultural history of hybridization that is a result of migration. Leilah Babirye was forced to flee Uganda when she was outed as a lesbian by a local newspaper. She sought asylum in the United States, when she was threatened by her country's virulent homophobic laws. Babirye's work often amplifies the disparity between the patriarchal systems of British colonialization and the matriarchal clan systems of historical Uganda. In addition to clay, she uses wood and found objects, including debris found on the streets. Courtney M. Leonard is an artist and filmmaker, of the Shinnecock nation, which occupied the territory between Long Island and Connecticut. Leonard's work is an exploration and documentation of historical ties to place and sustainability. In collaboration with national and international museums, cultural institutions, and indigenous communities, Leonard's practice investigates narratives of cultural viability as a reflection of environmental record. For more information, please contact Elizabeth K. Alvarez at ekaplan@umassd.edu This event is sponsored by the Frederick Douglass Unity House, The Office of Diversity, Equity and Inclusivity, and the College of Visual and Performing Arts.

  • Description: The School for Marine Science and Technology Department of Fisheries Oceanography Seminar Announcement "Exploring the use of seabirds as dynamic ocean management tools to mitigate entanglement risk to large whales" Tammy Silva Volgenau Fellow National Marine Sanctuary Foundation Wednesday, October 13, 2021 2:30 pm to 3:30 pm SMAST East, Rooms 101/102 Also Via Zoom Abstract: Entanglement in fishing gear is a serious conservation concern for large whales. U.S. management actions to reduce entanglement-related serious injury and mortality have been mostly ineffective, resulting in continual negotiations and escalating conflict between stakeholder user groups attempting to balance ecological and economic values. Many management measures have been ineffective partially due to static protection schemes that fail to account for distribution shifts of highly mobile animals and human users that are responding to dynamic ocean conditions. Large whale conservation would benefit from dynamic ocean management, but few tools exist to inform dynamic approaches. Seabirds are documented ecological indicators, are often found foraging in association with whales, and can be tagged at lower cost and in higher numbers than whales. Here, we explore the use of satellite-tagged seabirds (great shearwaters, Ardenna gravis) as dynamic ocean management tools for near real-time identification of habitats where large whales aggregate and may overlap with fisheries. We examine spatial overlap between satellite-tagged great shearwaters, humpback (Megaptera novaeangliae) and North Atlantic right (Eubalaena glacialis) whales over several spatial and temporal scales using multiple datasets. Lastly, we discuss implications and future work that may help operationalize dynamic management to more strategically mitigate entanglement impacts to large whales. ******************************************************************************** Zoom Link https://umassd.zoom.us/j/93758230260?pwd=OHJ5UDloQkZZaCtXcTlBNlR6Qm0rQT09 Meeting ID: 937 5823 0260 Passcode: 426839 One tap mobile +13017158592,,93758230260#,,,,*426839# US (Washington DC) +13126266799,,93758230260#,,,,*426839# US (Chicago) Dial by your location +1 301 715 8592 US (Washington DC) +1 312 626 6799 US (Chicago) +1 646 876 9923 US (New York) +1 253 215 8782 US (Tacoma) +1 346 248 7799 US (Houston) +1 669 900 6833 US (San Jose) Find your local number: https://umassd.zoom.us/u/acosTPRs4V ******************************************************************************** For additional information, please contact Sue Silva at s1silva@umassd.edu

  • AMANDA MEANS: LIGHT YEARS
  • Location: > See description for location
  • Contact: > See Description for contact information
  • Description: University of Massachusetts Dartmouth is delighted to host a career survey of the work of renowned U.S. artist Amanda Means at the University Art Gallery in Star Store Campus, Downtown New Bedford. For over forty years, Amanda Means has created a body of work that has pushed the boundaries of the photographic medium with her celebrated Leaf, Flower, Water Glass, and Light Bulb series of images. Means has been a darkroom innovator throughout her career: adapting a 19th century camera for use as an enlarger, photographing objects without the use of negatives, working with a large-format Polaroid camera, and creating a series of remarkable abstracts working only with light and photographic materials. The artist's darkroom alchemy was cited by the Guggenheim Foundation in awarding Means their prestigious Fellowship in 2017 for her contribution to contemporary photography. Our survey exhibition, Means' first retrospective, includes examples of work from all phases of her career. Alongside key pieces from her color Polaroid Light Bulb and silver gelatin Water Glass works, we are excited to be showing some of the artist's early prints and works on paper, as well as important examples of her black and white Flower and Light Bulb works. This affords a unique opportunity to view Means' most celebrated images in the broader context of her overall practice. Amanda Means is a graduate of Cornell University and SUNY Buffalo, and is a 2017 Guggenheim Fellow, awarded for her contribution to contemporary photography. She has exhibited widely in the U.S. and abroad, and her work is included in numerous collections including the Whitney Museum of American Art; the San Francisco Museum of Modern Art; the Los Angeles County Museum of Art; the Museum of Fine Arts in Boston; the MIT List Visual Arts Center; the Albright-Knox Art Gallery, Buffalo, N.Y.; and the Nicola Erni Collection, Switzerland. The artist is represented by JHB Gallery, New York, and lives and works in Beacon, New York.

  • Location: > See description for location
  • Contact: Office of Faculty Development
  • Description: Presenter: Shouhong Wang The COVID-19 pandemic forced the majority of face-to-face courses in higher education to be offered online. As courses in business education do not rely on physical labs and instruments, many business courses were transformed from face-to-face courses into online courses. This paper presents a theoretical framework of the transition from face-to-face to online modality, covering design, implementation, and assessment. It describes the process and challenges of the transition, presents the findings based on information collected and analyzed through personal actions, and discusses further reflection. This event is open to UMassD faculty participants. To register and received the zoom link and passcode, please email Ellen Mandly at emandly@umassd.edu.

Some of the key benefits of the Interactive Student Notebook include assisting students in effectively organizing and interacting with notes (instructional and reading content); allowing students greater latitude in demonstrating understanding of subject matter and in relating the subject to experiences; breaking down disciplinary boundaries so that connections are made between courses; allowing instructors greater insight into how students are making meaning; deepening dialogic interaction between student/instructor and the student and peers; and inciting joy in the process of learning. This workshop is open to all faculty and graduate student instructors. To register, please contact Ellen Mandly at emandly@umassd.edu. Please indicate your preference for in-person or virtual participation when registering. Individually wrapped lunches, which can be enjoyed during the workshop or taken "to go," will be provided for in-person participants.

  • AMANDA MEANS: LIGHT YEARS
  • Location: > See description for location
  • Contact: > See Description for contact information
  • Description: University of Massachusetts Dartmouth is delighted to host a career survey of the work of renowned U.S. artist Amanda Means at the University Art Gallery in Star Store Campus, Downtown New Bedford. For over forty years, Amanda Means has created a body of work that has pushed the boundaries of the photographic medium with her celebrated Leaf, Flower, Water Glass, and Light Bulb series of images. Means has been a darkroom innovator throughout her career: adapting a 19th century camera for use as an enlarger, photographing objects without the use of negatives, working with a large-format Polaroid camera, and creating a series of remarkable abstracts working only with light and photographic materials. The artist's darkroom alchemy was cited by the Guggenheim Foundation in awarding Means their prestigious Fellowship in 2017 for her contribution to contemporary photography. Our survey exhibition, Means' first retrospective, includes examples of work from all phases of her career. Alongside key pieces from her color Polaroid Light Bulb and silver gelatin Water Glass works, we are excited to be showing some of the artist's early prints and works on paper, as well as important examples of her black and white Flower and Light Bulb works. This affords a unique opportunity to view Means' most celebrated images in the broader context of her overall practice. Amanda Means is a graduate of Cornell University and SUNY Buffalo, and is a 2017 Guggenheim Fellow, awarded for her contribution to contemporary photography. She has exhibited widely in the U.S. and abroad, and her work is included in numerous collections including the Whitney Museum of American Art; the San Francisco Museum of Modern Art; the Los Angeles County Museum of Art; the Museum of Fine Arts in Boston; the MIT List Visual Arts Center; the Albright-Knox Art Gallery, Buffalo, N.Y.; and the Nicola Erni Collection, Switzerland. The artist is represented by JHB Gallery, New York, and lives and works in Beacon, New York.
