Gilleran (1921 - 2007)\, who was an art professor at Wayne S tate University from 1954 to 1989\, when he retired. Gilleran attended Cas s Tech High School (1939) in Detroit\, received his BA (1948) from the Col orado College in Colorado Springs and earned his MFA (1950) from Cranbrook Academy of Art\, where he studied with Zoltan Sepeshy and also taught for nearly a decade. During World War II\, Gilleran served in the Army Signal Corps as a draftsman while being stationed in India and China. The infl uential teacher and prolific artist participated in one of the first Ann A rbor Art Fairs and was the official portrait artist in its fourth year. Gi lleran exhibited up until the time of his death\, with one-person shows at the Scarab Club\, the Birmingham Bloomfield Art Center\, West Virginia St ate College and the Detroit Artists Market. Throughout his career\, Giller an received a number of prestigious awards\, including a Louis Comfort Tif fany Foundation fellowship. Gilleran's work illustrates his deep explora tion of a wide variety of modern artistic styles\, including Cubism\, Poin tillism\, Abstract Expressionism and Fauvism\, which he synthesized and us ed often to depict local subject matter. There is an energy created throug h Gilleran's unique color palette and adept draftsmanship\, and a deep emp athy in his sensitive portrayal of his subjects. Witty and optimistic\, Gilleran's passion for art was the driving force behind his talent and lov e for teaching. Richard Bilaitis\, professor emeritus and former chair of WSU's James Pearson Duffy Department of Art and Art History said\, "He liv ed\, ate and slept painting and drawing and inspired many students to choo se careers in the field." "His artwork and teaching were a continual sou rce of enjoyment\, satisfaction and pride\; it was his life\," Gilleran's wife\, Anne Crow Gilleran\, said. Two of his children followed in their fa ther's footsteps -- daughter Breon Gilleran is a sculptor and an assistant professor of art at Goucher College in Towson\, Maryland\, while son Pete r Gilleran is a painter and has taught high school art in the Detroit Publ ic School system. The exhibition serves as a special tribute to a prolif ic and accomplished Michigan artist who taught painting\, drawing and grap hic design at Wayne State University for 35 years.

Gilleran (1921 - 2007)\, who was an art professor at Wayne S tate University from 1954 to 1989\, when he retired. Gilleran attended Cas s Tech High School (1939) in Detroit\, received his BA (1948) from the Col orado College in Colorado Springs and earned his MFA (1950) from Cranbrook Academy of Art\, where he studied with Zoltan Sepeshy and also taught for nearly a decade. During World War II\, Gilleran served in the Army Signal Corps as a draftsman while being stationed in India and China. The infl uential teacher and prolific artist participated in one of the first Ann A rbor Art Fairs and was the official portrait artist in its fourth year. Gi lleran exhibited up until the time of his death\, with one-person shows at the Scarab Club\, the Birmingham Bloomfield Art Center\, West Virginia St ate College and the Detroit Artists Market. Throughout his career\, Giller an received a number of prestigious awards\, including a Louis Comfort Tif fany Foundation fellowship. Gilleran's work illustrates his deep explora tion of a wide variety of modern artistic styles\, including Cubism\, Poin tillism\, Abstract Expressionism and Fauvism\, which he synthesized and us ed often to depict local subject matter. There is an energy created throug h Gilleran's unique color palette and adept draftsmanship\, and a deep emp athy in his sensitive portrayal of his subjects. Witty and optimistic\, Gilleran's passion for art was the driving force behind his talent and lov e for teaching. Richard Bilaitis\, professor emeritus and former chair of WSU's James Pearson Duffy Department of Art and Art History said\, "He liv ed\, ate and slept painting and drawing and inspired many students to choo se careers in the field." "His artwork and teaching were a continual sou rce of enjoyment\, satisfaction and pride\; it was his life\," Gilleran's wife\, Anne Crow Gilleran\, said. Two of his children followed in their fa ther's footsteps -- daughter Breon Gilleran is a sculptor and an assistant professor of art at Goucher College in Towson\, Maryland\, while son Pete r Gilleran is a painter and has taught high school art in the Detroit Publ ic School system.

Inc lusive of much beyond automobiles\, this research-focused initiative explo res critical issues confronting innovations in transportation within the G reat Lakes region that are intertwined with Michigan and Canadian Industri es. Michigan and the region must confront numerous questions regarding inn ovation and change\, communities and economic development\, technology\, l abor\, and policy as the nation moves inexorably in the direction of devel oping and implementing more sustainable modes of transportation. We envi sion opportunities for research in the social and behavioral sciences\, te chnology-related sciences\, public policy\, business and economic developm ent\; urban transit\; technology innovations\; supply chain and logistics\ ; globalization\, in-sourcing\, and diversity\; and the rise of the servic e economy. We expect to develop both inter-institutional research programs that relate to these areas of inquiry\, and to provide knowledge-based in sights to policy makers across the region. To further explore the resear ch problems\, questions and issues that arise from the need to fundamental ly transform the transportation industry in the Great Lakes region\, we ar e convening a set of initial meetings with Wayne State University faculty whose research interests coincide or complement the areas identified above . These meetings will be on December 9\, 2009 and January 12\, 2010\, from 10 a.m. to 12 noon in 5057 Woodward\, room 6202. Registration is reques ted to assist us with meeting set-up.
