SUMMARY:UA Museum of Art  Exhibition - \"The Machine Stops (or Inkjet My Foot!)\" 
DESCRIPTION:E.M. Forster's 1909 short story\, \"The Machine Stops\,\" describes a humanity threatened by its complete dependence upon the technology it created. Forgetting that it was the original creator of the \"Machine\,\" humankind grows to deify it\, to worship it\, and ultimately\, to follow it to its own demise. \"The Machine Stops (or Inkjet My Foot!)\" is a limited edition print portfolio inspired by Forster's short story. Using his prescient masterpiece as a point of reference\, the portfolio explores relationships between humanity and the technological world that is increasingly encompassing it. The intent is to present a collection of fine art prints contemplating the implications of technological progress through representational\, abstract and non-representational imagery. It showcases traditional hand lithography as a central medium while incorporating other such processes that accommodate the theme. Andrew Polk\, Organizer Kathryn Polk\, Co-organizer

SUMMARY:Cuneiform Exhibit and Lecture Series
DESCRIPTION:Special Collections at the University Libraries announces its newest exhibit\, \"Writings Out of Time\: The University of Arizona's Cuneiform Collection\,\" which examines the origins of early writing and literacy. Curated by Beth Alpert Nakhai\, professor of Judaic studies at the Arizona Center for Judaic Studies\, \"Writings Out of Time\" is a showcase of the Arizona State Museum's extraordinary archaeological holdings in Near Eastern antiquities.The exhibit and a fall lecture series will illuminate some of the world's first methods of writing. The cuneiform tablets on display - primarily records of business transactions - are from half a dozen sites in southern Iraq. The tablets date from 2100-1800 B.C. and are unquestionably the oldest archive of literary materials in the state of Arizona. Other objects in \"Writings Out of Time\" include engraved cylinder and stamp seals from Iraq and Egypt\, a piece of papyrus with demotic writing\, and Imperial Roman-era Egyptian lamps signed by their makers. One piece\, a unique stone slab with a bas-relief carving\, comes from the palace of the great Assyrian king Ashurbanipal (668-627 B.C.) in Nineveh\, northern Iraq.A special series of lectures focused on the theme \"The Roots of Literacy in the Ancient Near East\" will be held throughout the fall. Lecturers will include faculty from the UA and scholars from around the country. A schedule is available online.

SUMMARY:UA Museum of Art Exhibiton - Brian Stauffer's \"Hard Eyes\: Images of Empathy\"
DESCRIPTION:The University of Art's Museum of Art and Archive of Visual Arts present Brian Stauffer's \"Hard Eyes\: Images in Empathy.\"Stauffer's illustrations have appeared in The New York Times\, TIME\, The New Yorker\, The Nation\, The Village Voice\, Rolling Stone\, Esquire\, GQ and more than 300 other publications worldwide. A UA graduate\, Stauffer begins with hand drawn images and builds mixed media collages using traditional and digital processes\, painted elements and scanned found objects and surfaces. Stauffer was born and raised in Arizona and graduated with a bachelor of fine arts degree from the UA School of Art in 1989 with an emphasis in design. His body of work is a fine example of the philosophy of the program\, now called visual communication\, which approaches design and illustration as means of critical inquiry\, documentation\, interpretation\, expression and communication\, as well as powerful vehicles for social change.  In 2005\, The American Society of Magazine Editors named Brian's \"Worry\" cover for The Nation magazine \"One of the Top 40 Magazine Covers from the Past 40 Years.\" His images are in the permanent collections of the Museum of American Illustration in New York City\, The American Institute of Graphics Artists\, The Newseum of Washington\, D.C.\, and The Art Directors Club of New York.The museum is open Tuesday through Friday\, 9 a.m. to 5 p.m.\, Saturday and Sunday\, noon to 4 p.m. It is closed Mondays.   UAMA programs are generously supported by UAMA Partner benefactors I.

SUMMARY:\"Departure\" Exhibit
DESCRIPTION:Joseph Gross Gallery is pleased to announce the U.S. premiere of \"Departure\,\" a three-channel video installation by the artist duo Lin + Lam. Shot from the exploratory perspective of a moving car\, bicycle and trains\, the video travels through three postcolonial Asian cities\: Taipei\, Shanghai and Hanoi. The transformation of a road\, a bridge and railways parallels the cycle of construction and destruction that distinguish these sties of occupation.  The impact of modernization and foreign intervention on these urban environments is viewed through different modes of transporation.Lin + Lam's work takes shape in sculptural forms\, full-scale installations\, 16 mm film\, photography\, writing and performance. Since 2001\, they have developed projects that raise questions about nationalism and nationaly identity\, the contingency of memory and the haunting of daily life by the spectre of war\, militarism and socio-political inequities.  Inspired by a particular site\, historical incident or political issue\, their work emerges from the interrelation between current events and residues of the past.

Rodeos\, butterflies at Tucson Botanical Gardens and road trip scenes are some of the subjects on display. The Gallery is located at 715 N. Park Ave. Viewing hours are Monday through Friday\, 9 a.m. to 4\:30 p.m. This free exhibit runs from Oct. 19 through Dec. 11.

SUMMARY:\"Here - Standing Still\" Exhibit 
DESCRIPTION:\"Here - Standing Still\,\" an installation by Chika Matsuda\, explores the spatial tensions between people and their surrounding environments. The artist invites her audience to stand on a square plane of grass\, isolated by the muted floor\, and reflect in the moment. She wishes to demonstrate how \"the body becomes the path between the earth and the sky\, and elongates them infinitely.\" By allowing the viewer to confront nothing but himself or herself\, the viewer is confronted by an experiential tension and relation to nature.

SUMMARY:Steward Observatory Mirror Lab Tour
DESCRIPTION:A tour of the Mirror Lab on the University of Arizona campus offers a unique opportunity to experience the ground breaking work being done at our facility under the UA football stadium.  This tour will provide visitors with a behind the scenes look at cutting-edge optical technology and the revolutionary spin-casting processes involved in making giant telescope mirrors. Starting with the construction of the mold\, to spin-casting\, to grinding and polishing\, the final result is a lightweight mirror ready for transportation to a mountaintop observatory where it will peer into remote regions of the cosmos\, exploring the edges of the universe in an effort to answer a vast array of astronomical questions and make new discoveries.  The UA's Steward Observatory is the only place in the world where giant spin-cast telescope mirrors are produced. We look forward to showing you how this is done and how we are changing the way astronomers and telescopes explore the universe today and in the future.

SUMMARY:Architecture Lecture\: \"From the Prairies to the Antipodes to India\"
DESCRIPTION:Christopher Vernon will survey Walter and Marion Griffin's architecture and landscape architecture. After early work with Frank Lloyd Wright in their native Chicago\, the couple launched their collaborative practice in 1909. Winning an international competition for the design of Australia's capital city\, Canberra\, prompted their relocation \"down under\" in 1914. After more than two decades of successful practice in Australia\, the pair ended their careers with an array of projects in India. In his presentation\, Vernon will emphasise the cross-cultural transfer and transformation of the Griffins' design ideals and approach across the disparate \"worlds\" of the United States\, Australia and India.Vernon is an associate professor in the Faculty of Architecture\, Landscape and Visual Arts at the University of Western Australia. His scholarship focuses upon architecture and landscape as collective expressions of identity. More specifically\, he is a leading scholar on the lives and works of the Griffins\, lecturing and publishing widely on the subject. Vernon has also served on the Australian government's National Capital Authority\, an agency which ensures Canberra's ongoing development is sympathetic with the city's status as the national capital.
