The Nebraska Art "Association
show, comprised of both old and
contemporary paintings, is now
open in Merrill hall and mil con
tinue throughout March.
The show, now 62 years old,
began with the establishment of
the University art department. At
first it was named the Hayden
Art club show. "The Wise and
Foolish Virgin" was the first pic
ture exhibited in the history of
the art show.
. One of the early members of
the Hayden club, Frank Hall,
donated a trust fund to pur
chase new paintings each year.
"Now we can be proud of hav
ing one of the largest collec
tions of contemporary art in
the United Stales," explained
Duard (Lading, director of the
gallery. '
Three of the most famous paint
ings now on exhibit are "Woman
of the Crusification," "The Bridge"
and "In the Catskills," Laging
said.
"The Bridge" is by Kirchner, a
German expressionist, reputed
ly equal to the French expres
sionist, Van Gall, according to
Laging.
"In the Catskills" Is a 19th
century painting of Thomas
Big Seven Now Includes
New Competitive Sports
Bridge, table tennis, and chess
are the latest sports introduced
into Big Seven competition. ,
The Big Seven bridge, table ten
nis and chess tournament was
held at the University March 7
and 8.
The tourney, started In 1947
by the University, then included
only bridge. Table tennis was
added two years ago and chess
was included this year.
Kansas University, Kansas State,
Colorado and the University par
ticipated this year.
Kansas University won first
place in the chess division. The
winning team was composed of
Henry Georgi and Edgar Mari
hugh. Dean McKinnis and Pete Bar
glow composed the team sent by
Colorado, which won second place.
Victor Pupulos and Bill Steen
of the University won third.
In the bridge division, Colo
rado took first place and Kansas
State won second. The Colorado
team members also were the in
dividual high point winners.
They were: Mort Davis, Wlntoa
Parker, Bill Gates and Ralph
Stusrnd.
Kansas University won first
place with the University and
Colorado tying for second.
The Kansas team was composed
of Al Herrington, Churby Clowers
and Fred Chenx. They won 18
games and lost 9. The two second
place teams each won 13 and lost
14.
Eddie Sarkissian, Jerry Barrett
and MorU Solojoo were members
of the University's team.
The individual high point man
was George Ghahramanian of
Kansas State. He won nine games
and had no losses.
Kole ' painted In the Hudson
area.
To help familiarize beginning
art viewers with abstract works,
one gallery is arranged by com
parisons. This is a new feature
in Nebraska Art shows.
One painting by Jackson Pol
lock typefies the artists work
which is all done by dribbling
paint from the brush to the can
vas. .
Assembling a collection of these
modern paintings is no simple
task, Laging points out.
He spent several weens in
New York attending major art
shows and visiting artists In
their studios "shopping" for the
paintings. '
Weeks of planning and work
setting up the exhibit preceed
each yearly opening, Laging said.
Added to this year's snow is a
completely new lighting system.
Guided tours are onerea ail
groups who wish to see the ex
hibit. Laging encourages instruc
tors to send their classes to the
show.
