So many art exhibitions, particularly student shows, are mounted in Ann Arbor and then . so quickly disappear that they seem to have been reserved for the artists' themselves and for a few friends. By the time we become aware of them or get around to it. it is too late. So consider this an invitation --to a very short-lived affair. First-year Masters stud nts from Architecture and Design are exhibiting their work in the Assembly Hall of the Mich- igan Union today through Sa- turday. Hours are Thursday and Friday, 10 a.m. - 7 p.m., Sa- turday, 10 a.m. - 5 p.m. The Assembly Hall can be difficult to find, but if you go to the basement of the Union and head south you will locate it. The show offers a wide range of formal expressions-at first it seems a potpourri of discor- * dant statements - and yet very few of the major modes of recent years are represent- ed: there is no color field paint- ing, minimal or kinetic sculp- ture, earthworks or environ- DAILY OFFICIAL BiL ETIN mental proposals, no op or straight pop. Pop is there all right but partly digested by an appetite for abstraction or soc- ial criticism. It is with the latter emphasis that students have appropriated pop art and popular imagery since its first significant appearance about ten years ago. In this vein, several of the artists comment upon Vietnam, violence, and the American condition (the three by now all but synonymous). Vietnam is violence, violence is Vietnam, Vietnam is Amer- ica - this seems to be the message reiterated in Rita Mes- sanger's semi-abstract, techni- cally explorative silk screen and mixed comments upon our recent history. Vietnam is also the scene of John Harkobusic's photographs. Vietnamese peo- ple and villages and scenes of war are printed by means of old photographic techniques which give to them the air of the faded family album - there is a touchingly strained image of a young boy - or yield a subtly varied yet high- contrast abstraction, as in his solarized prints. A sense of violence, to body and spirit, also seems to be basic to the heraldic plaques of David R. MacDonald, offering images which metamorphose from flags to shields to helmets and gasmasks to plastic wombs from which spill forth the gen- erations still to come. T h e conditions of creation, growth, and aspiration are the themes of Sister Barbara Cervenka's watercolors and multi-part oil paintings of abstract and de- formed images. The human body, maimed or incomplete, is suggested also in W ill i a m Moore's sculpturally powerful image of wood and m o 1 d e d plastic. Along with bitter social crit- icism - and yet not always far removed from it - we find hu- mor and fantasy in generous proportions. Ralph Moore's or- gone-box-like Man I and his molded plastic relief of frogs offer bizarre references to the human condition. Donna Webb's ceramic, wood, and plastic sculp- tures of useless curiosities-soft vaguely sexual, unfunctional tools, beautifully chrome-glazed wedges of clay, and soft, plas- tic ropes emerging from a black box - offer striking examples of the surreal, fantasy-gener- ated imagery which, in one way or another, pervades the whole show.
