India: A Light Within

The bodily experience - textures, sights, sounds, and smells - of life in Calcutta in 2007 are evoked through the photography of award-winning Carnegie-Mellon faculty member Charlee Brodsky, and the prose and poetry of writers Zilka Joseph and Neema Bilpin Avashi. These contemporary photos and meditations are juxtaposed with a series of photos, "The Dance of Hands," which captures the expressive range of hand "mudras" in the ancient art of Odissi dance. Renowned dance master Sreyashi Dey performs Odissi dance live in the Duderstadt Center Gallery on Friday, October 30 at 6:30 p.m.

The exhibit runs now through November 9 in the Gallery. The Gallery is open from 12-6 p.m. Monday through Friday.

Bioartography

The U-M Center for Organogenesis unites scientists from many fields who work together to study organ growth, function and disease. The goal of these studies is to use what is learned to design new and effective ways to treat disease and repair damaged organs. In the course of this work, the microscope and special stains or "colors" are used to look at tissues for changes that could affect our health. These tiny biological structures that are studied are often beautiful and are presented as a fascinating combination of art and science.

The Bioartography exhibit is being held in the Duderstadt Center Gallery through October 19. It is open Monday through Friday from 12-6 p.m.
