Ongoing through Thursday, May 31, 2012

The Mind's Eye is an exhibit of Myron McGhee's photographs of Tibetan monks painting sand mandalas at Emory University in Atlanta, Georgia.

While the monks focus their attention on the artistic elements of creating the sand mandala, they also devote their minds to meditation for the healing of the earth. Observing their sacred practice, our eyes are drawn to the exquisite beauty of their art, and our minds are inspired by their religious devotion.

This collection of photographs will be on exhibit at various venues on Emory's campus throughout the 2011-2012 academic year. The exhibit is curated by Juana Clem McGhee and made possible through generous support from the university and other organizations in the Atlanta area.

January 21–April 15, 2012

Emory Visual Arts Gallery

Planned in consultation with Jacquelynn Baas, author of Smile of the Buddha: Eastern Philosophy and Western Art from Monet to Today, this exhibit brings together contemporary artists who explore the mandala form as artistic expression and as a tool for transformation and balance in our complex world. This exploration takes many forms, from redrafting traditional visual depictions to the use of new materials, to the performance body participating in the mandala form.

A mandala by New York artist and Morehouse College alumnus Sanford Biggers forms the centerpiece of the gallery, providing a dynamic space for music and dance. Surrounding this performance space are the works of artists Don Cooper, Faith McClure, Christopher McNulty, Andra Samelson, King Thackston, and Marcia Vaitsman. From transcendent abstracts to repetitive patterns, the multi-media works by these artists use the mandala and its residual power to address today’s physical, cultural, environmental, and cosmological issues.

Spring 2012 Lobby Hosting Program

04 Feb 2012 05:00:00 GMT

New Admission Building , 1390 Oxford Road NE , Atlanta, GA 30322
Ongoing through Saturday, April 28, 2012

Emory Alumni Lobby Hosting program
Every Saturday during the Spring 2012 semester
The Alumni Lobby Hosting program is a new program that allows prospective students and parents who are visiting campus on a Saturday morning to speak directly with alumni about their experiences both during and after college. The program's goal is to give prospective students and parents a better connection to the University, as well as provide an outlet for questions that an admission representative or tour guide may not be able to answer.
The program consists of a "busy" season from February through April at which time many high school juniors and seniors are visiting schools. During this peak time, three to five alumni lobby hosts will be present at every Saturday session.
The Alumni Lobby Hosts are generally young alumni, having graduated within the past 5 years, but all interested alumni volunteers are welcome. Recent graduates allow for a unique perspective on job-hunting and life post-college, while remaining relevant to prospective students.
Please review the following Saturday availabilities and select several Saturday shifts to serve as a Lobby Host. If you should have additional questions about the Lobby Hosting program or the Saturday schedule, please contact Alexis Kim 07B at alexiskkim@gmail.com.

Scholar’s Seminar on Modernism

12 Feb 2012 14:00:00 GMT

Reception Hall, Michael C. Carlos Museum
571 South Kilgo Circle
Atlanta, GA 30322
Sunday, February 12, 2012, 9 a.m. – 4 p.m.

What was Modernism? Was it a style, an ideal, a politics, a form of life or none of these things? And what about its central concepts like authorship, realism, truth, teleology, medium specificity, and expression? With the growing sense that Postmodernism is in decline, we might begin to get a clearer sense of what Modernism was and what its aims were. This symposium asks whether Modernism is dead for good (and for the best), or whether its death was announced prematurely.

Discussion format: Nell Andrew (UGA), Todd Cronan (Emory), Lisa Florman (Ohio State), Elizabeth Goodstein (Emory), Sarah Hamill (Oberlin), Gordon Hughes (Rice), Dalia Judowitz (Emory), Andrew Mitchell (Emory), Charles Palermo (William and Mary), Michael Schreyach (Trinity), and others.

Seminar discussion will revolve around pre-circulated papers. If you would like to take part in the seminar discussion, please contact Todd Cronan in advance of the event at todd.cronan@emory.edu

Held in conjunction with "Embodied Seeing: Modernist Works on Paper, 1890-1962" at the Michael C. Carlos Museum. On View in the John Howett Works on Paper Gallery from Feb. 4 - May 20, 2012.

It is the special character of works on paper that they are scaled to the human body. Whether it is a woodcut, lithograph, drawing, or a printed book, these media address the body in a different way from painting, sculpture, or cinema. The eleven books and works of art exhibited in Embodied Seeing: Modernist Works on Paper, 1890-1962 carry a sense of intimacy that is related to the touch of the hand and to the seated body. Works like Vasily Kandinsky’s woodcut Schwarzer Fleck or Henri Matisse’s illustrated collection, Poèmes de Charles d’Orléans, are not meant to be viewed or read in traditional ways. They solicit many of the feelings associated with the intimacy of reading, but at the same time frustrate any effort to approach them as texts to be read or stories to be told. Rather, we look at these works, we see them, and we respond to them as visual phenomena of a highly sophisticated order. All of the books and works of art in this exhibition are from the permanent collection of Works on Paper at the Michael C. Carlos Museum and Manuscript, Archives, and Rare Books Library of Emory University.

"To Happiness and Beyond: Are You Flourishing in Life?"
featuring

Corey Keyes
Associate Professor of Sociology

Is happiness a warm blanket, or is it a prescription for a longer life with greatly reduced mental illness and cardiovascular disease? Emory University's Associate Professor of Sociology Corey Keyes will explore this concept, share his research and entertain discussion on February 12, 2012 at the Emory Alumni Association's Faculty Within Your Reach program at the Orlando Museum of Art. Keyes notes that adopting happiness is simply the first step toward flourishing in life.

With the right ratio of positive to negative, we flourish, which Keyes' research has revealed is a far more secure and higher state than "happiness." The majority of us would answer that we feel happy. Says Keyes, "With that, you might say that the whole world is high on life, but when you look at the flourishing criteria, those numbers drop by half."

Are you flourishing? Come learn about flourishing, why it is better than simply feeling happy, and how this approach to life is intimately connected to solving some of society's biggest problems, not the least of which is mental illness, premature mortality, and cardiovascular disease.

Deng Xiaoping and His Opening to the World

13 Feb 2012 21:30:00 GMT

Joseph W. Jones Room
Robert W. Woodruff Library
Emory University
540 Asbury Circle
Atlanta, Georgia 30322-2870
Monday, February 13, 2012, 4:30 – 5:30 p.m.

Ezra Vogel, renowned scholar of modern Japan and China, will deliver a public lecture at Emory University on Monday, February 13 as part of The Halle Institute's spring 2012 China Speaker Series.

Vogel will discuss the legacy of Deng Xiaoping, who, unlike Chairman Mao, lived abroad before coming to power. He lived in France from 1920-1925 and then spent a year in the Soviet Union. As secretary general of the Communist Party for over a decade, he had broad experiences in meeting leaders of the communist party of other countries. From 1973-75, under the guidance of Zhou Enlai, he was the leading Chinese official meeting leaders of foreign countries. By the time he came to power in 1978, he had formed the basis of deeper relations with Europe, Japan, and the United States. During his leadership (1978-1992), China expanded its relationship with western countries, and he mended relations with the Soviet Union. His approach to foreign relations can be illustrated by his relations with world leaders whom he met during this period.

Vogel is Henry Ford II Professor of the Social Sciences Emeritus at Harvard University. He was professor at Harvard from 1967 until his retirement in 2000. He succeeded John Fairbank to be the second director of Harvard's East Asia Research Center and was founding director of its Asia Center.

This event is free and open to the public, but guests should register to attend by Friday, February 10.

Carlos Museum, Board Room
Monday, February 13, 2012, 7:30 – 9 p.m.

Tricky Titans, bundles of nymphs, and a revolving-door account of divine succession fill the thousand-plus lines of Hesiod’s Theogony, a mythical account of how the world came to be— and how a poet got his voice. Led by Dr. Sandra Blakely, Associate Professor in the Classics Department, readers will dive into the poetry and mythology of this late eighth-century BC poem, considering its historical context and Near Eastern influences; the ritual realities and local cults of the gods; and contemporary hypotheses for the meaning of the poem, preserved from the earliest boundary of the Greek literary tradition. Registration is required by calling 404.727.6118.
Fee: $25 for Carlos members; $35 for non-members and includes the cost of the book.

July 9, 2011 marked the independence of South Sudan and the completion of the 2005 Comprehensive Peace Agreement between the Republic of Sudan and the Sudan People’s Liberation Movement/Army. Six months later conflict in the region continues. Since independence tensions along the Sudan and South Sudan border remain high and regional security is threatened by communal clashes within the South as well as ongoing conflicts about oil revenue. In light of these unfolding events, the Institute for Developing Nations and The Carter Center's Conflict Resolution Program have assembled a group of experts to provide international and regional perspectives on Sudan and South Sudan's ongoing peace processes.

Lecture: The Dark Side: A History of Violence in Tibetan Buddhism

16 Feb 2012 00:30:00 GMT

Carlos Museum, Reception Hall
Wednesday, February 15, 2012, 7:30 – 8:30 p.m.

Jacob Dalton, Assistant Professor of South Asian Studies at the University of California, Berkeley discusses wrathful deities in Tibetan Buddhism in a lecture titled The Dark Side: A History of Violence in Tibetan Buddhism.
From images of peaceful monks meditating on mountainsides, to the Dalai Lama teaching compassion toward Tibet's Chinese oppressors, Tibetan Buddhism is widely portrayed as a religion of non-violence. Yet a closer look at the art of Tibet reveals quite another image. Witness the demonic beings dancing upon corpses, the skulls filled with blood, the fearsome weapons; this is a far more complex and ambivalent tradition than many imagine, one that at once condemns and embraces violence. In this talk, Dalton traces the history of Tibet's ambivalent relationship to violence. By focusing on three vignettes, drawn from Tibetan myth, history, and geography, he explores the disconcerting similarities between evil demons and the wrathful buddhas that tame them, great Buddhist masters' expressions of anxiety over their involvements in violent ritual practice, and the strangely divided relationship Tibetans have with their border regions.

Sweet Smell of Success (1957)

White Hall 208
301 Downman Drive
Atlanta, GA 30322
Wednesday, February 15, 2012, 7:30 p.m.

"Sweet Smell of Success" (Alexander Mackendrick; Hill-Hecht-Lancaster/UA, 1957) (1.66:1, 96 min.) Written by Clifford Odets and Ernest Lehman; music by Elmer Bernstein and the Chico Hamilton Quartet; starring Burt Lancaster and Tony Curtis. Cinematography by James Wong Howe.

"Sweet Smell of Success" was dubbed by one period reviewer “one of the most cynical movies ever made.” The steely stillness of Burt Lancaster’s performance as the Walter Winchell-based columnist J.J. Hunsecker may have justly earned him a place in AFI’s top 50 movie villains but Tony Curtis’ endlessly ingratiating and deliciously craven press agent Sidney Falco is the heart of this black-hearted movie: That is, if you don’t count Howe’s rendering of New York City itself. Voted onto the National Film Registry in 1993.

2012 Undergraduate Business School Leadership Conference (UBSLC)

16 Feb 2012 05:00:00 GMT

Goizueta Business School, 1300 Clifton Road, Atlanta, GA 30322
Thursday, February 16 – Saturday, February 18, 2012

Twelve years ago a group of dedicated BBA student leaders from Emory University’s Goizueta Business School sought to create a collaborative forum for student leaders from the top universities around the world. Their efforts resulted in the first Undergraduate Business School Leadership Conference (UBSLC) and the first dynamic educational platform of its kind. The annual conference continues to expose undergraduate students to leading business thinkers and practitioners, invaluable workshops in leadership development, cases and other interactive exercises. Annual conference participants come from countries such as Italy, France, Ireland, England, Chile, and Singapore. During the two-and-a-half day event, participants not only develop heightened leadership skills and insights but also build a social network with the world’s most promising future business professionals. Our goal is to empower students with the necessary skills to return to their home schools and make a significant positive impact on their own student body.
The 2012 UBSLC
The upcoming 2012 UBSLC is tentatively taking place February 16 to February 18, 2012. We look forward to this year’s conference as it continues to serve as an educational and inspirational cornerstone for a select group of emerging business leaders throughout the globe.

The Arab Spring: Between the Freedom of the Future and the Shackles of the Past

17 Feb 2012 21:30:00 GMT

Winship Ballroom, Dobbs University Center
Emory University
605 Asbury Circle
Atlanta, GA 30322
Friday, February 17, 2012, 4:30 – 5:30 p.m.

As part of the Halle Speaker Series, Al-Jazeera Washington Bureau Chief Abderrahim Foukara will deliver a public lecture about the Arab Spring at Emory University on February 17.

Until recently, anyone suggesting that an Arab country such as Egypt would be ruled by anyone other than the now-deposed Mubarak or his son Gamal would have been labeled either a lunatic or a believer in miracles. The so-called Arab Spring has delivered some miracles in some places, though it has also been nothing short of a painful and bloody labor of freedom in others. So, how much fruit will the Arab Spring's tree ultimately yield?

This event is free, but guests should register online by Thursday, February 16.

Visitor parking is available in the Fishburne deck.

1700 North Decatur Rd.
Atlanta, GA 30322
Friday, February 17, 2012, 8 p.m.

The collaboration between Kronos Quartet and the Alim Qasimov Ensemble produces powerful pieces drawn from the repertoire of Azerbaijani ashiqs—oral-tradition singer-songwriters whose song texts portray, often with wry humor and searing irony, the power of love and the pain of separation. The legendary singer Alim Qasimov is called “one of the most thrilling, unashamedly emotional performers on the planet” (Robin Denselow, the "Guardian").

Emory Alumni Tour of the Baltimore Basilica

18 Feb 2012 16:00:00 GMT

Baltimore Basilica , 409 Cathedral Street , Baltimore, MD 21201 , baltimorebasilica.org
Saturday, February 18, 2012, 11 a.m. – 1:30 p.m.

Join the Emory community in Baltimore for a private, educational tour of the newly renovated Baltimore Basilica. America’s First Cathedral, built from 1806-1821, is one of Baltimore’s beloved cultural institutions, offering its visitors stunning architecture and artwork. This docent-led, 45-minute tour is a fascinating look at this National Historic Landmark and open to all ages.

The Basilica truly has something for everyone. History buffs can pore over the letters between various United States presidents and archbishops housed in this National Historic Landmark. Architecure aficionados will appreciate Benjamin Latrobe's neoclassical design, a first for American churches. Art lovers will enjoy the previously hidden frescos of Gospel writers discovered during the recent renovation.

Following the tour, the chapter president, Adam Rothwell 96C, invites all guests to join him for a group lunch at nearby restaurants, Indigma or Ban Thai.

Suggested donations for the Baltimore Basilica tour is $3 per person and the optional lunch following the tour is dutch-treat.

Millions have visited the Basilica over the past 200 years (including Mother Teresa!), but this exclusive tour is only for Emory alumni, parents and friends. Reserve your spot today!

Lecture - "In Defense of Substantive Public Health Ethics"

21 Feb 2012 21:30:00 GMT

Tuesday, February 21, 2012, 4:30 p.m.

Work relating to public health ethics has exploded over the last ten years. Does this explosion merely represent adding a new set of public health topics (e.g., quarantine, isolation, contact tracing, banning smoking in public places, banning trans-fat in food, etc.) to the issues that medical ethics and bioethics address? Against this narrow interpretation of public health ethics, Dr. Dawson will argue that public health ethics demands its own approach built upon the recognition of public health activity as a distinctive kind of practice with a distinct set of aims, methods and values. Examples from both communicable and non-communicable disease interventions will illustrate the challenges facing the emerging field of public health ethics.

ANA InterContinental Tokyo, 1-12-33, Akasaka, Minato-ku, Tokyo 107-0052
Tuesday, February 21, 2012, 7 – 9 p.m.

oin Emory alumni for a presentation and networking reception with Dr. Stuart Zola, PhD, Emory University on Alzheimer's and Parkinson's disease.

As one of the nation's leading neuroscientists, Stuart Zola has contributed valuable insights into how the brain organizes memory and how this relates to memory problems such as amnesia. He also is regarded as a leader in the movement to better communicate science and research to the public.

Dr. Zola's own research focuses on memory, its formation, consolidation and retrieval. His work has contributed significant insights into the memory loss in humans that results from head trauma and characterizes progressive diseases such as Alzheimer's. His research also has provided knowledge about less severe memory problems that often accompany depression, chronic stress and normal aging.

Carlos Reads Book Club reads The Ramayana

22 Feb 2012 00:30:00 GMT

Carlos Museum, Board Room
Tuesday, February 21, 2012, 7:30 – 9 p.m.

Emory scholars Joyce Flueckiger and Narayan Rao lead readers through The Ramayana.
One of India's two major pan-Indian epics, the Ramayana has had a long and sustained history in the development of civilizational values in South Asia. The Ramayana has multiple regional language versions, both literary and oral, in addition to a number of literary forms in Sanskrit itself. It's popularity and influence cannot be over estimated. Its characters are larger than life, occupy an imagined timeless past, and at the same time, they are household names, as familiar as next door neighbors speaking to the present. Episodes from the Ramayana are represented in every conceivable medium: poetry, drama, dance, song, sculpture, painting and film. Since the text of the full Ramayana is too long for our book group, Drs. Joyce Flueckiger and Narayan Rao will lead readers through a retelling of the epic, particular episodes from various regional language version, and an examination of visual representations of these episodes. Registration is required by calling 404.727.6118. Fee: $35 for Carlos members; $50 for non-members and includes the cost of the book.

"By wisdom a house is built, and by understanding it is established" (Proverbs 24:3): The Archaeology of Destruction and Household

22 Feb 2012 00:30:00 GMT

Michael C. Carlos Museum, Reception Hall
Tuesday, February 21, 2012, 7:30 – 9 p.m.

Dr. James W. Hardin is Associate Professor and Middle Eastern Archaeologist in the Department of Anthropology and Middle Eastern Cultures at Mississippi State University

The presentation will focus on the reconstruction of household organization in Judah during the Iron II (ca. 8th century BCE). It centers in particular on one
"4-room type house" excavated at Tell Halif in southern Israel by the Lahav Research Project during the summers of 1992, 1993, and 1999. This house was preserved well in a destruction stratum that eclipsed the site at the end of the eighth century BCE. The excellently preserved materials and their meticulous collection, including micro-artifacts, provide an excellent opportunity to examine post-depositional processes, activity area identification and organization, and what these mean for understanding the organization of broader household and its relationship to other spheres in Judahite society. When these data are compared with ethnographic data and historical data (both biblical and extra-biblical) they can be very telling regarding life in the southwest border region of Judah during the years of Assyrian activity in the region.

The lecture is sponsored by the Program
in Mediterranean Archaeology, the
Department of Middle Eastern and South Asian Studies, the Tam Institute for Jewish Studies, and the Michael C. Carlos Museum. The event is free and open to the public.

China's International Identities: Coping with a Conflicted Rising Power

22 Feb 2012 21:30:00 GMT

Joseph W. Jones Room
Robert W. Woodruff Library
Emory University
540 Asbury Circle
Atlanta, Georgia 30322-2870
Wednesday, February 22, 2012, 4:30 – 5:30 p.m.

As the world’s most important rising power, many wonder: what kind of role will China take on the international stage? While a number of factors will influence the answer to this question, China’s own conceptions of itself and its global responsibilities will be a major determining factor. In this lecture, Professor David Shambaugh will explore the domestic discourse in China concerning its international identities—and will link these to alternative foreign policy postures that Beijing assumes on the world stage.

David Shambaugh is professor of political science and international affairs in the Elliott School of International Affairs and director of the China Policy Program at The George Washington University. He is also a nonresident senior fellow in the Foreign Policy Studies Program and Center for Northeast Asian Policy Studies at The Brookings Institution. Shambaugh is an internationally recognized authority on China’s domestic politics, foreign relations, military and security, and the international relations of Asia.

This event is free and open to the public, but guests should register by Tuesday, February 21.

Faculty Within Your Reach: Atlanta
"To Happiness and Beyond: Are you Flourishing in Life?"

Co-hosted with the Emory University Emeritus College

featuring

John Dunne Corey Keyes
Associate Professor of Religion Associate Professor of Sociology

Is flourishing a prescription for a longer life with greatly reduced mental illness and cardiovascular disease? How does mindfulness contribute to flourishing?
Emory University's Associate Professor of Religion John Dunne and Associate Professor of Sociology Corey Keyes will explore this concept, share their research and entertain discussion on Wednesday, February 22, 2012 at the Emory Alumni Association's Faculty Within Your Reach program at the Miller-Ward Alumni House at Emory University.
Keyes notes that adopting happiness is simply the first step toward flourishing in life, while Dunne points out that flourishing is an age-old concept with important resonance for our time.
With the right ratio of positive to negative, we flourish, which Keyes' research has revealed is a far more secure and higher state than "happiness." The majority of us would answer that we feel happy. Says Keyes, "With that, you might say that the whole world is high on life, but when you look at the flourishing criteria, those numbers drop by half."
As co-founder of the Collaborative for Contemplative, Dunne’s research focuses on Buddhist philosophy and contemplative practice and how they relate to cognitive science. “Concrete steps toward flourishing can be taken by adopting techniques such as mindfulness,” he explains.
Are you flourishing? Come learn about flourishing, why it is better than simply feeling happy, and how this approach to life is intimately connected to solving some of society's biggest problems.

Wednesday, February 22, 2012

6:30 p.m.: Networking and hors d'oeuvres reception

T-Men (1947)

23 Feb 2012 00:30:00 GMT

White Hall 205
301 Downman Drive
Atlanta, GA 30322
Wednesday, February 22, 2012, 7:30 p.m.

"T-Men" (Anthony Mann, Eagle-Lion, 1947) (1.37:1, 92 min.) Produced by Aubrey Schenck; written by John Higgins and Virginia Kellogg; starring Dennis O’Keefe, Wallace Ford and Alfred Ryder. Cinematography by John Alton. Preserved by the Library of Congress.

The first of five films to team Mann and Alton, this low budget, “case-file” crime drama became a major hit for the young Eagle-Lion studio. Though initially received as a new high in location-based realism, today Alton’s low-key lighting effects virtually define film noir visuals at their most stylized, expressionistic extreme.

Lecture: Dancing at the Solstice: The Maidens on the Acanthus Column at Delphi.

24 Feb 2012 00:30:00 GMT

Carlos Museum, Reception Hall
Thursday, February 23, 2012, 7:30 – 8:30 p.m.

Gloria Ferrari Pinney, Professor Emeritus of Classical Archaeology and Art at Harvard University delivers the annual Phi Beta Kappa Lecture, Dancing at the Solstice: The Maidens on the Acanthus Column at Delphi.

In the 330s BCE the Athenians dedicated to Pythian Apollo at Delphi an extraordinary monument: a gigantic column wrapped in acanthus leaves, on top of which are three dancing maidens who hold aloft over their heads a large bronze tripod. Why this and why now? The years are a particularly dramatic period in Athenian history, one that opens in 338 with the crushing defeat of the Athenian and Boeotian forces at Chaeronea and the prospect of a Macedonian invasion. Nearly 120 years since its discovery, the meaning of the Column and the occasion for its dedication remain hotly debated topics. This lecture traces the disparate elements of this assemblage to parallels in visual and poetic imagery and identifies in it a representation of a cosmic landmark that is relevant to both Helios Apollo and to its Athenian sponsors.
This program is co-sponsored by the Program in Mediterranean Archaeology, Ancient Mediterranean Studies, and the Department of Classics, and the Carlos Museum.

Maggiano's Buckhead, 3368 Peachtree Road Northeast, Atlanta, GA
Friday, February 24, 2012, 7:30 – 9 a.m.

Can the breakfast you eat today affect the health of your grandchildren? Predictive health is revolutionizing health care, and it is the hot topic of Emory College’s second networking breakfast, at Maggiano’s in Buckhead. First, fill your plate with a healthy breakfast and a heaping portion of networking—mix and mingle with fellow alumni and chat with the movers and shakers of the current student community over complimentary breakfast. Then Professor Michele Lampl, Director of the Emory Center for the Study of Human Health, will present a brief discussion, “Predictive or Predestined? : The 100 Years Approach to Health,” explaining this new phenomenon in health care and what it means for your health today.

Dr. Michelle Lampl:

Dr. Lampl is a physician scientist with research focused on human growth and development. Her landmark work established the saltatory nature of growth - confirming that humans grow in 'spurts' versus a continuous, uninterrupted pattern.

In 2011, Dr. Lampl launched a multidisciplinary cross- university Center for the Study of Human Health. The unique College programs deliver curricula in which faculty and professional leaders from the university and beyond deliver leading-edge experience on the issues and opportunities facing health today.

Sunday, February 26, 2012, 12 – 5 p.m.

Kimberly Carmody from Urban River Arts in New York and museum volunteers will be on hand to help participants of all ages create a giant mandala from natural and recyclable materials.

Then visitors will create the colors and textures of the mandala by filling the sections with found and re-purposed materials. Once it is finished, participants will participate in a dismantling ceremony where they may take and reuse and recycle the materials. This is a drop-in event. Visitors may come for any length of time between noon and 5 pm.

This event is co-sponsored by the Emory Office of Sustainability Initiatives.

Communicating Space: Framing Communication and Urbanism in Bombay

28 Feb 2012 21:00:00 GMT

Callaway Center, Room S-319
Tuesday, February 28, 2012, 4 – 5:30 p.m.

Kush Patel, PhD Candidate in Architecture, The University of Michigan, Ann Arbor

Recent times have witnessed a resurgence of architecture and urban scholarship on the social makings of cities, particularly involving issues of plurality and social inclusivity. Engaging politics and policies, this scholarship has pushed the architectural and aesthetic understanding of space beyond its commonly accepted view as a designed object. Continuing along this critical spatial trajectory, this talk will focus attention on the relationship between space and communication. Specifically, the presentation will juxtapose distinct narratives on Bombay, and bring previously-unrelated perspectives on the city and its spatial practices together in a conversation. By contrasting various expectations, the paper will illustrate the many ways in which the relationship between space and communication at once re-frames questions of voice and
difference, and speaks to multiple urbanisms in Bombay. Throughout, the presentation will explore the notion of communication as a form of action that influences, inspires, and defines practice.

Carlos Reads Book Club reads The Ramayana

29 Feb 2012 00:30:00 GMT

Carlos Museum, Board Room
Tuesday, February 28, 2012, 7:30 – 9 p.m.

One of India's two major pan-Indian epics, the Ramayana has had a long and sustained history in the development of civilizational values in South Asia. The Ramayana has multiple regional language versions, both literary and oral, in addition to a number of literary forms in Sanskrit itself. It's popularity and influence cannot be over estimated. Its characters are larger than life, occupy an imagined timeless past, and at the same time, they are household names, as familiar as next door neighbors speaking to the present. Episodes from the Ramayana are represented in every conceivable medium: poetry, drama, dance, song, sculpture, painting and film. Since the text of the full Ramayana is too long for our book group, Drs. Joyce Flueckiger and Narayan Rao will lead readers through a retelling of the epic, particular episodes from various regional language version, and an examination of visual representations of these episodes. Registration is required by calling 404.727.6118. Fee: $35 for Carlos members; $50 for non-members and includes the cost of the book.

Conversation with Emory's Bobbi Patterson & NY Times columnist Rob Walker

01 Mar 2012 00:30:00 GMT

Carlos Museum, Reception Hall
Wednesday, February 29, 2012, 7:30 – 8:30 p.m.

Rob Walker is the former Consumed columnist for the New York Times Magazine, the author of Buying In: The Secret Dialogue Between What We Buy and Who We Are, and the founder of The Unconsumption Project. In an informal conversation, Mr. Walker and Bobbi Patterson of Emory’s Department of Religion, will discuss one of the Four Noble Truths of Buddhism—that suffering is caused by desire—and the complexity of navigating a culture in which “desire” is manufactured by product designers and advertising agencies, and driven by our own consumerism.

This program is co-sponsored by Emory’s Office of Sustainability Initiatives.

“The most trenchant psychoanalyst of our consumer selves is Rob Walker. ‘Buying In’ is a fresh and fascinating exploration of the places where material culture and identity intersect.” – Michael Pollan."

Lecture - "Escaping Melodramas: The U.S. STD 1946-48 Experiments in Guatemala and their Aftermath"

01 Mar 2012 22:00:00 GMT

Thursday, March 1, 2012, 5 p.m.

Synopsis: Between 1946 and 1948, the U.S. Public Health Service conducted human subject experiments in Guatemala that involved the use of diseased sex workers, inoculation of unsuspecting subjects with bacterial inoculum, and failure to treat participants when infection followed. The results of the study were never published and the study was unknown until historian of medicine Susan M. Reverby unexpectedly discovered records of the study among the PI's papers at the University of Pittsburgh. In this lecture, Reverby will discuss how she found the papers, brought them to the attention of the CDC, and witnessed the aftermath--apologies at the federal level and the swift investigation by the Presidential Commission for the Study of Bioethical Issues, of which the Vice Chair is Emory President James W. Wagner.

Susan M. Reverby, Ph.D.: Escaping Melodramas: The U.S. STD 1946-48 Experiments in Guatemala and their Aftermath

01 Mar 2012 22:00:00 GMT

SOM 120
Thursday, March 1, 2012, 5 – 7 p.m.

Between 1946 and 1948, the U.S. Public Health Service conducted human subject experiments in Guatemala that involved the use of diseased sex workers, inoculation of unsuspecting subjects with bacterial inoculum, and failure to treat participants when infection followed. The results of the study were never published and the study was unknown until historian of medicine Susan M. Reverby unexpectedly discovered records of the study among the PI's papers at the University of Pittsburgh. In this lecture, Reverby will discuss how she found the papers, brought them to the attention of the CDC, and witnessed the aftermath--apologies at the federal level and the swift investigation by the Presidential Commission for the Study of Bioethical Issues, of which the Vice Chair is Emory President James W. Wagner.

Reverby will reflect on the cultural processes that create narratives of melodrama through which society views scientific endeavors and especially its ethical missteps. The daughter of a cardiologist and microbiologist and the first hire in Women’s Studies at Wellesley, Reverby has nearly 30 years of teaching and scholarship on which to base her carefully researched and reasoned thoughts about what the Guatemala study may mean for how we consider research ethics in America today.

Reverby was previously best known for her articles and books on the PHS "Tuskegee Syphilis Study” (1932-72), which has become a central metaphor for distrust of the American health care system and research. A full academic biography will be made available at the lecture. Registration is not required.

Since that time, Emory University has become one of the leaders in the country for LGBT access and inclusion as seen by the recent five-star rating by the LGBT Friendly Campus Climate Index and the remarkable one-year improvements Emory Healthcare achieved on Healthcare Equality Index.

The 20th Annual Pride Awards will celebrate the many accomplishments of the last year as well as the leaders of the last 20 years. A special recognition of the 20 Change Agents will be one of many highlights of the evening.

In addition to the Pride Awards, the OUTLaws, Emory University School of Law’s LGBT student group, will host a special reception prior to the Pride Awards. While this is a reception for Emory Law Alumni, everyone is welcome to attend.

6:00 p.m. Emory OUTLaws Pride Awards Reception—Faculty Lounge, Room 575
7:00 p.m. Pride Awards Reception—Hunter Atrium
7:30 p.m. Pride Awards—Tull Auditorium

Carlos Reads Book Club reads The Ramayana

07 Mar 2012 00:30:00 GMT

Carlos Museum, Board Room
Tuesday, March 6, 2012, 7:30 – 9 p.m.

One of India's two major pan-Indian epics, the Ramayana has had a long and sustained history in the development of civilizational values in South Asia. The Ramayana has multiple regional language versions, both literary and oral, in addition to a number of literary forms in Sanskrit itself. It's popularity and influence cannot be over estimated. Its characters are larger than life, occupy an imagined timeless past, and at the same time, they are household names, as familiar as next door neighbors speaking to the present. Episodes from the Ramayana are represented in every conceivable medium: poetry, drama, dance, song, sculpture, painting and film. Since the text of the full Ramayana is too long for our book group, Drs. Joyce Flueckiger and Narayan Rao will lead readers through a retelling of the epic, particular episodes from various regional language version, and an examination of visual representations of these episodes. Registration is required by calling 404.727.6118. Fee: $35 for Carlos members; $50 for non-members and includes the cost of the book.

Lecture - "Open Wound: The Tragic Obsession of Dr. William Beaumont"

07 Mar 2012 21:00:00 GMT

Wednesday, March 7, 2012, 4 p.m.

Jason Karlawish will read from and discuss his recently published
novel "Open Wound: The Tragic Obsession of Dr. William Beaumont." Based on true events along the 19th century American frontier, Open Wound artfully fictionalizes the complex, lifelong relationship between Dr. Beaumont and his famous patient Alexis St. Martin, a young fur trapper whose shotgun injury never completely healed, leaving a hole into his stomach. Eager to rise up from his humble origins and insecure about his rural medical apprenticeship, Beaumont seized the opportunity to experiment on his patient to establish his legitimacy as an elite physician and secure his prosperity. Beaumont personifies the best and worst aspects of American ambition and power.

The author is a physician and researcher at the University of Pennsylvania.

"Baby Doll" (Elia Kazan; Warner Bros., 1956) (1.66:1, 114 min.) Produced by Elia Kazan; screenplay by Tennessee Williams; starring Karl Malden, Carroll Baker, Eli Wallach. Cinematography by Boris Kaufman. Preservation funded by The Film Foundation. Print courtesy of UCLA Film and Television Archives.

This Tennessee Williams-scripted, Elia Kazan-directed black comedy-drama sensation (Variety wanted to know how it got past the Code) made overnight film stars out of Baker and Wallach in their first starring roles as a teenage Mississippi Delta bride still sleeping in a crib and her would-be seducer. Williams, Baker and supporting actress Mildred Dunnock all earned Academy Award nominations, as did Boris Kaufman’s cinematography.

Understanding Biblical Women: The Contributions of Archaeology and Ethnography

08 Mar 2012 00:30:00 GMT

Michael C. Carlos Museum, Reception Hall
Wednesday, March 7, 2012, 7:30 – 9 p.m.

Jennie Ebeling, Associate Professor of Archaeology, Department of Archaeology and Art History, The University of Evansville, Indiana

In this presentation I will focus on two important sources of information for
reconstructing women’s activities during the Iron Age (ca. 1200-586 BCE):
archaeological remains from households in ancient Israel and Judah and
ethnographic accounts from late 19th-early 20th century Palestine. I will begin by reviewing the accounts of bread baking in the Hebrew Bible; according to the biblical writers, everyday cooking activities in domestic contexts were performed by women, while bread baking in more specialized contexts – like the Jerusalem Temple – was done by men. I will then describe the process of transforming grain into bread during the Iron Age and examine the archaeological correlates for these activities. Ethnographic data, including late 19th-early 20th century photographs and accounts by pilgrims, western anthropologists, and local authors, reveal the gendered aspects of traditional cooking activities; this information will be used to suggest women’s control of bread baking in antiquity. I will conclude by describing how women’s lives may have been impacted by the professionalization of bread production by men in ancient times and in early 20th century Palestine and Transjordan.

The lecture is sponsored by the Program in Mediterranean Archaeology, the Department of Middle Eastern and South Asian Studies, the Tam Institute for Jewish Studies, and the Michael C. Carlos Museum. The event is free and open to the public.

Laszlo-Excalibur Lecture

21 Mar 2012 23:30:00 GMT

Carlos Museum, Reception Hall
Wednesday, March 21, 2012, 7:30 – 8:30 p.m.

Jeffrey Hurwit, Professor of Art History and Classics at the University of Oregon, delivers this year’s Laszlo-Excalibur Lecture titled The Shipwreck of Odysseus: Problems of Myth and Narrative in Late Geometric Art.

In this talk, Professor Hurwit, focusing on a well-known eighth-century BCE vase-painting that may show the Shipwreck of Odysseus, defends the now controversial premise that myth was the subject of some Late Geometric Greek artists. He also suggests that the most important thing we can do with a Late Geometric scene is not to assign it to one of the standard categories of “myth” or “genre” or “the generalized heroic,” but to new categories that transcend those distinctions. He emphasizes the exceptionalism, variety, and originality of Late Geometric imagery and the Late Geometric artist’s interest in the description of both the heroic and real worlds.

The John Laszlo, M.D., Excalibur Lecture was established through the generosity of Dr. Laszlo's family and friends in honor of his retirement from the American Cancer Society.

Gates of Silence

Dance Studio, Schwartz Center for Performing Arts
1700 North Decatur Rd
Atlanta, GA 30322
Friday, March 23, 2012, 7 p.m.

Composer and singer Susan Botti performs her original chamber work
“Gates of Silence” with Vanderbilt University’s Blakemore Trio.

“Gates of Silence” connects three independent pieces, inspired by Virgil's “Aeneid.” Each is a passage that echoes with relevance today—in our fallen cities, in our physical passages, and in our personal interactions with each other and with our destinies. There is a reiterated rhythm of loss, but also one of renewal, hope and continuation.

The final passage sets poetry by National Book Award finalist, Linda Gregerson. She was awarded the Pushcart Prize for her poem “Dido Refuses to Speak,” commissioned by Botti for “Gates of Silence.”

Susan Botti is a Coca-Cola Artist in Residence at Emory University.

This event is sponsored by the Coca-Cola Artists in Residence program, MetLife Creative Connections program, the Emory College Hightower Fund, the Center for Creativity & Arts, the Michael C. Carlos Museum, and the departments of English, Music, Theater and Dance.

"Life and Death in the Pyramid Age:
The Old Kingdom Mummy at Emory University"

with

Peter Lacovara
Senior Curator of Ancient Egyptian, Nubian, and Near Eastern Art
Michael C. Carlos Museum of Emory University

No matter how far you live from campus or how long you've been away from it, the EAA brings Emory to you through its Faculty Within Your Reach program. This initiative encourages not just lifelong learning, but also lifelong connection to the University's unparalleled academic excellence. On Saturday, March 24, 2012, Michael C. Carlos Museum's Senior Curator of Ancient Eqyptian, Nubian, and Near Eastern Art, Peter Lacovara, will be in Orange County to give his lecture, "Life and Death in the Pyramid Age: The Old Kingdom Mummy at Emory University."

Lacovara is one of this country's foremost experts in Egyptology. His fieldwork includes site supervision at locations such as the Valley of the Kings at Thebes and the Sphinx/Isis Temple, among others. Since Lacovara came to the Carlos Museum nearly nine years ago, Emory has become one of the south's leading centers for ancient Egyptian and Near Eastern art. In 1999, Lacovara was the driving force behind the Carlos Museum's acquisition of a large collection of ancient Egyptian materials from a small museum in Niagara Falls, Ontario. Included in that collection was a mummy believed to be Ramesses I, the patriarch of one of ancient Egypt's greatest dynasties. In 2003, when a delegation led by Lacovara and museum Director Bonnie Speed returned the pharaoh to Egypt and residence at the Luxor Museum, the University earned the thanks of a grateful Egyptian nation.

Garth Tissol of Emory's Department of Classics leads readers through the Aeneid, Virgil's epic on the origins of Rome. We will follow the hero Aeneas as he discovers his own destiny and that of the Roman people. Leaving the flames of Troy, he leads his followers in wandering the sea, entangles himself in a tragic love affair with Dido, queen of Carthage, visits the underworld, and, arriving in Italy at last, battles with its inhabitants. We will read the Aeneid in the translation of Robert Fitzgerald, which admirably captures the excitement and pathos of the original. Fee: $35 for Carlos members; $50 for non-members and includes the cost of the book.

Black Narcissus (1947)

28 Mar 2012 23:30:00 GMT

White Hall 208
301 Downman Drive
Atlanta, GA 30322
Wednesday, March 28, 2012, 7:30 p.m.

"Black Narcissus" (Michael Powell and Emeric Pressburger; The Archers, 1947) (1.37:1, 100 min.) Produced by Powell & Pressburger; written by Powell and Pressburger from the novel by Rumer Godden; starring Deborah Kerr, Flora Robson, Kathleen Byron, David Farrar, Sabu and Jean Simmons. Cinematography by Jack Cardiff.

This India set-film about a group of nuns unprepared for the overripe sensuousness engulfing their isolated mountain convent, was shot entirely in Britain’s Pinewood Studios and the garden of a retired army officer in West Sussex that contained the appropriate foliage. Director Powell felt that this was the only way to achieve the complete unity in visual design that he envisioned. The results were spectacular, with the film earning Alfred Junge a pair of Academy Awards for color art direction and set design as well as one for Jack Cardiff’s color cinematography.
