Quilting can
'bee' fun:
exhibit at
Sheldon
1v Dentils EilerrneTer A
On display at Sheldon Art Gallery until October
13 are examples of Grandma's handiwork-quilts.
The extensive exhibit offers both antique and
contemporary examples of craft from Nebraska
collections.
The oldest quilts in the show are from the 1840s.
One was made en the shin enroute to the great
California gold rush via South America's Cape
Horn. '
From the 1880s are several, examples of the
crazy quilts. In crazy quilts no special pattern is
sought. Pieces are simply sewn together ran
domly. The majority of the examples in the show,
however, date from the early part of the 20th
century.
Since the quilts were handed down as heirlooms
much of their history and information about their
makers is known. .
Also on display is a quilt in the process of being
made. Visitors to the exhibit are invited to try their
hand at quilting and sewing on a piece. A member
of the Lincoln Quilters Guild will be available at ail
times to answer questions and discuss the
exhibits.
Other special exhibits now at the Gallery are
paintings by Clayton Pond and prints by Michael
Nuschwag. Pond is a pop artist whose works have
been exhibited nationally. The works displayed in
this show are "vibrant paintings of the artists
studio his bathroom, his kitchen and the like,"
according to Jon Nelson, assistant director of the
Nushwag is an assistant professor of art at UHL.J

Limelight on Mull shows lemon
Review by Chuck Sirinz
Make-a!l-the-money-you-can-on-an-artist
Department. Side One:
Martin Mull, a veteran of ETV's
Great American Dream Machine (with
his Midget Band), has found success
with his three releases, Martin Mull,
Martin Mull and his Fabulous Furniture
and Normal. He gets off on tangents on
these albums. The tangents are the
essence of his colorful images and, for
that matter, style. Mull tunes includes
"Dueling Tubas" (yes, it's just what
you think) and "Jesus Christ, Football
Star." It works.
Mull nuts, such as myself, are now
ripe for the picking. rApviously
unreleased album is the baifTJrte trabW
sprung, the prey is left holding a lemon.
In The Soop with Martin Mull was
recorded about a year before Mull's first
successful LP. Vanguard records didn't
think In The Soop was worth much.
They were probably right.
In The Soop also includes Les Daniels
and Ed Wise, whoever they are. They
seem to take the limelight on the record.
Mull's wonderful lyrics sound bland
when sung by a sweet voice. This album
needs Mull in the foreground with the
rest of those dudes dinging the
"Oooo-wahs."
Side two:
The Four Tops Anthoiogy comes into
the office. Oh, well. Take it home and
listen to it. Ho-hum.
Little did. I remember, truly remem
ber, the Four Tops. But it all came back,
usually in the form of "Oh, yeah, they
recorded that!"
The Four Tops can make you feel
words. In "Baby, I Need Your Loving,"
hear the first word in the line "Got . . .
to have all your loving" and you know
he means it. Quiet falls in the middle of
a feeling when suddenly the darkness
cracks with an anguished shout"
"Burnadette!"
"Arifriolv? isn't cfreat'throuah and
through. But then, few triple LPs are. It
has its share of junk and ripoffs, ("We
Gotta Get You a Woman," "MacArthur
Park").
The Four Tops Anthology is the best
of the barrage of Motown's last efforts
to make money on artists that have left
or are leaving them for greener labels
(ABC in thiacase). It is, therefore, a key
to past days and feelings ("Boy, I was at .
Scout camp when i first heard that,"
etc.). .
This is a good album to tape
discriminately, then sell.
