Page Two THE MICHIGAN DAILY Friday, February 21, 1S art Viewing Manet through Spanish eyes By WALTER THOMPSON and BETH GENNE The Edouard Manet exhibit, currently being held at the University Art Museum, offers an un- usual opportunity to see this artist work in a medium where he has unfortunately received little' publicity. Included in this impressive showing - the first major graphics show h e 1 d by the Uni- versity Museum - are etchings, lithographs and watercolors gathered from collections both here and abroad. Throughout most of the 1860's and early 1870's, Manet was strongly attracted to Spanish art and culture - partially as a result of a wave of popular enthusiasm for things Spanish which swept the Paris of his time and partially because of his own affinity for earlier Spanish masters. His subjects range from then contemporary Span- ish political events based on actual photographs and witnesses accounts (The Execution of the Emperor Maximilian) to Spanish entertainers such as Lola de Valence who were the rage of Paris and the inspiration for other artists as well. (The poet Baudelaire attended all her perform- ances and dedicated a poem to Manet's painting of her.) In shaping his compositions, Manet was im- pressed by the Spaniards Velasquez and Goya al- though it is clear that the artist showed a strong inclination to invent his own means of expres- sion. This combination enlivened the surface of his palate with the widest possible range of tex- tural and linear qualities., One of the finest pieces in the show, Au Prado demonstrates only one of Manet's many ap- proaches to the medium. Fashionable ladies' of Madrid are rendered in marvelous deep blacks and flat decorative silhouettes - a style which indicated Manet's revolutionary approach to form. The exhibition was prepared by Prof. Joel Isaacson of the art history department.

Gov. Ronald Reagan, an ex-of- ficio regent, is expected to attend the meeting. There has been speculation that the regents are unhappy with Chancellor Roger Heyns' handling of the disorders and that his job may be in danger. Under the leadership of the Third World Liberation F r o n t, students have been on strike since Jan. 22. They are demanding . creation of a college of ethnic studies, recruitment of more non- white university employes, and admission of more non-white stu- dents. In Sacramento, Reagan said stu- dent and faculty dissidents w e r e waging guerrilla warfare, and the Dnly solution was to "eliminate them." Meanwhile, in Chicago, more than 100 black students at Roose- velt University stormed the presi- dent's office yesterday, shouting demands for a black studies pro- gram and amnesty for five ex- pelled students. A task force of police ushered the protesters from the office without incident. No arrests were made. University President Rolf Weil told the demonstrators no decision could be made on their demands at this time. At Oberlin College in Ohio, sev- eral hundred demonstrators block- ed tle return of military recruit- ers, then marched on the admin- istration building. The protests started with op- position to Marine Corps repre- sentatives who were prevented from entering the student place- ment center and had to use a substitute office. Finally, they were asked by uni- versity officials to leave the cam- pus. A nine-hour sit-in by 20 black' students at Clark University in Worcester, Mass., ended last night when faculty and students pledged financial support of one of the protesters' seven demands and the. demonstrators w e r e promisedl amnesty. Clark President Frederick H. Jackson said he told the demon- strators he would grant amnesty if they vacated the administration building by this morning. Several hundred students con- tinued a polite sitin at the Uni- versity of Pennsylvania's college hall yesterday as they waited for Penn's board of trustees to nego- tiate demands regarding the uni- versity's relationship with its West Philadelphia community.

Stadtfeld later admitted that Sponberg had been informed about the lock-in before the arrests were made. The governor's office in Lansing denied reports that police were sent onto campus at the request of Gov. William Milliken. Sponberg refused to meet with the press. Stadtfeld, issued a brief statement announcing a meeting between administrators, represen- tatives of the black students, and representatives of the Human Re- lations Commission at 9 a.m. this morning. The group will discuss the "feasibility of implementing those' demands which are consistent with the aims and goals of the university," the statement said. 3020 Washtenaw, Ph. 434-1782 Between Ypsilanti & Ann Arbor NOW SHOWING Feature Wed., Sat., Sun. 1:30-3:45-6:15-8:30 Mon., Tues., Thurs., Fri. 7:00-9:00 JOIN-IN tHE DISNEY FUN-IN!
