TWO THE MICHIGAN DAILY FRIDAY, Y 27,196 2 TWO THE MICHIGAN DAIIA FRIDAY, JULY 27, 1962 Artists Demonstrate Their Method, Media 'U' POLICY ON SPEAKERS: Protest, Rally Against Regents' Bylaw Smith Discusses, Shows Use of Oils By CYNTHIA NEU Artist Hughie Lee-Smith ex- plained and applied his philosophy of painting in a "Demonstration of Oil Painting" presented yesterday as part of the Tenth Annual Michigan Regional Art Exhibition and Conference. Smith classified himself as a representational painter. "I am in love with the image and with people," he said. "Action painting is so personal that it is impossible for anyone besides the painter to understand it," he said. On the other hand, "representational painting is pub- lic in character." Art Needs Nature In order for a painting to be valid, it must communicate with nature," he maintained. The re- lationship between man and man, and between man and his environ- ment is the subject of this com- munication. Smith explained that the micro- scope and telescope can give in-_ sights into particular realms of these relationships. However, "gen-v erally we are concerned with thec visual world as we see it and through symbols we can com- municate the emotion with whichv we see it. This is the purpose ofy art." In reference to realistic painters,s Smith said that they must com- pete with the camera, ,which iss most difficult. Regardless of ther type of painting that the painterq does, he must say something aboutc the world, he emphasized.a Indirect MethodV After the theoretical introduc.- tion, Smith described the steps' he uses in painting while demon- strating them. His general method, he said, is indirect, in which het separates the drawing and struc-I turing of the painting from theI application of color. First, he applied a total tone to the canvas, usually unber, with1 a large house painting brush, Quinlan Considers Watercolor Skills Although oil painting can re- fine surfaces and textures, water- color has a newness and excite- ment similar to drawing, Patricia Quinlan told the art exhibition and conference yesterday. While giving a "Watercolor Demonstration," Miss Quinlan, chairman of the art department at Mercy College in Detroit, dis- cussed some aspects of painting particular to the medium of water- color and described the steps she uses in painting. Miss Quinlan explained that the painters' surface is two-demen-' tional and he has a choice of utilizing it as a flat surface or introducing a third demension. Watercolor lends itself to the first of these choices, she said. Butterflies Taking butterflies as her sub- ject, she developed a work which she described as "contemporary" (often very abstract art), but still with a discernable subject. Miss Quinlan first sketched the basic lines with charcoal and then made them permanent with a . neutral color. She explained that s the paper can be either wet or Z dry, depending on the effect the painter is seeking. Painting "wet" e tends to give more texture. e The artist then must decide - whether the painting is to be t warn or cool and choose colors a, accordingly. Next, she established the main areas and negative -Daily-Michael de Gaetano OIL PAINTING-Two artists yesterday described their tech- niques they use in producing paintings. A painting by Hughie Smith, who spoke on oil painting, is owned and displayed (and pictured above) by the Michigan Union. which he uses to apply large areas of tone. Frightening Purity "It is frightening to have a virgin white canvas staring at you," he explained. This under- tone also gives the final painting some sort of unity. Smith said he often does land- scapes,' but works from sketches, rather than directly from nature. The subject he chose for the dem- onstration was a scene including a couple of buildings and some water. The second step is to define forms and elements of the painting in relation to the basic lines. "I try to establish a form as opposed to pure emotionalism," Smith said. He also uses "spotting" to relate parts of the canvas. Uside-Down Art "Every successful painting must have a successful structure, that is, formal validity," Smith said. To show this he turned the paint- ing upside down, showing the up- set in the balance of forms. The third step is the application of color. By color Smith referred to cool and warm colors and grey tones for relief. Smith explained that he uses a limited palette including ivory black, cobalt and untramarine blues, raw unber, yellow ochre, two shades each of cadnium yellow and cadnium red, and zinc white. "Every color value has to relate to other parts of the painting and to the total format," Smith said "In order to do this, he works throughout the canvas, which helps to maintain unity. While working further on th painting, Smith explained some of the principles involved in glaz- ing and other devises. He said thai he uses bristle brushes and is a "squinter." Squinting gives the artist a localized view of the paint. ing so that he can discern if each part contributes to the con- tinuity of the whole. One of Smith's works hangs ir the lobby of the Michigan Union. Smith's Work Smith's painting of a view of Palmer Field is one of the more well-known works on exhibit ir the Union Lobby. It shows a long view, across the tennis courts and looking ai Cousins Hall andidemonstrates the realism which the people at the Union thrive on. Union officials report that they receive a good many inquiries about the painting each year. The painting illustrates, as much as the lecture and display today, that the technique Smiti uses is effective and enjoyable for the viewer. All three steps-in- cluding the "tone" of the canvas, the definition of forms in the pic- ture, and lastly, the choice and application of colors-show up or his work of art. v f n f e s t e' e s planes. Urges Natural Art The final steps are to decide value relationships, such as light and dark, and to strengthen lines accordingly. Miss Quinlan urged painters to work from nature, although this does not mean "copying." The painter should understand his sub- ject and generally work from life, even if the final product is im- pressionistic or abstract. Although painting is approachedl in terms of individual expression, it must have unity as its essential element, she emphasized. Water Colors Useful The water colors come in two basic varieties, hard. small "cakes" and in tubes. The tube-variety, which gen- erally is more expensive than the cakes, resemble oil paints insofar as they are, a very flexible media. However, the "cake" forms can be made from the tubed type if a small amount is left to dry in the sun. PROF. FREDERICK SMITH ....math in nature Show s Uses OfRio.Math. By MICHAEL SATTINGER Numerous uses of mathematics in biology were demonstrated yes- terday by Prof. Frederick E. Smith of the zoology department in the last lecture of the summer math- ematics series. Prof. Smith began by empha- sizing that the biologist and the mathematician do not always see eye to eye. Borrow Models The biologist may begin by bor- rowing models from cognate fields, such as chemistry. Then certain substitutions are made to make the model applicable to the bio- logical situation. Adtuarial mathematics, used in calculating insurance risks and premiums, showsdup in the study of birth and death rates in a cell population. Molecular genetics borrows a great deal from information theory, Prof. Smith pointed out. The complete structure and formof a man is determined by 24 "phases" made of only four symbols. 24 Chromosomes These "phrases" are the chromo- somes which guide in reproduction. By decoding the chromosomes, their meaning can be discerned. Population ecology, which deals with the relationships between the growth of organisms and their environment, also uses informa- tion theory, he said. Computer programming is now being used by radiologists in the treatment of cancer. Computers allow the investigators to com- pare many aproaches to irradiat- ing a tumor in a comparitively short time and noting, charting and categorizing the results, Prof. Smith said. Checks Grids Topology is used in biology by making a grid, a representation by lines, of the frequency of one animal in an area and comparing it to the grid of another animal. Boys who chase butterflies in fields should study their physical sciences and mathematics, Prof. Smith said, for nature and math- ematical sciences are inseperable. However, not many biologists are equipped in mathematics, he said. "Groups of workers in a field will have to interdependent," Prof., Smith said, advising more inter- departmental studies and activity. (Continued from Page 1) Later that year the Regents re- ceived a request for permission for the use of Hill Aud. for addresses on the subject of national prepar- edness for war. The Regents grant- ed this request on the condition that speakers "preserve an atti- tude of strict neutrality in regard to the present European situation." In 1920, however, the ban on political speeches was not enforced and Congressman George Suther- land (R-Utah) gave the conserva- tive point of view on the League of Nations in a talk in Hill Aud. Daily Hails Effort The Daily editor hailed this as a{ "milestone of Michigan's forward mnarch" to decide "to give worthy scope to such addresses" and sug- geszed that the other side of the issue should also be discussed. But the Regents put a halt to this "for- ward march" and said they would again strictly enforce their policy. This was greeted by protest from students-who held rallies- and from faculty, who held that political discussion was essential on a university campus. On March 12, 1920, the Regents replied that the safest plan was to continue with "the present method" since difficulty would be encountered in deciding who should be allowed to speak. Everybody Agitated Students and faculty continued to agitate. The editor of The Daily wrote that the University was too great an institution of learning, too progressive and too eager for authoritative discussion to be "trammeled" by the sort of timid- ity that refused to change a policy because somebody could not divide "safe" speeches from "unsafe" speeches. Representatives of the Student Council met with the Regents in May to outline a more liberal speaker plan, but the Regents by a 5-2 vote passed a resolution that the policy remain "against the use of University buildings for parti- san political or sectarian discus- sion.' Burton Liberalizes Marion L. Burton was inaugur- ated University president in Oc- tober, 1920, and stressed in his address that in every place stu- dents meet, it should be possible to think together about public ques- tions. Public-mindedness was es- sential to a democracy, he main- tained, and criticism can be a constructive force. With encouragement from Pres- ident Burton, the Student Council for the third time petitioned the Regents, asking that lectures be permitted on any topic, with res- ervations similar to those today. The Student Council asked that the Regents constitute a commit- tee to review petitions for use of University facilities for lectures. After careful consideration, the Regents granted some of their re- quests, resolving: Regents' Policy "The use of Hill Aud. may be granted to student organizations for lectures or addresses by prom- inent men on topics of the day, un- der guarantee that during such ad- dresses there shall be no violation of recognized rules of hospitality, nor advocacy of the subversion of the government or of the state, and . . . such meeting shall be in spir- it, and expression, worthy of this University." The Regents set up the Commit- tee on Student Welfare, to review petitions for speeches. This com- mittee included the University President ex officio and the Stu- dent Council president. Continue Ban But the Regents still banned "political gatherings and political speeches." Three years later the banning of George Wickersham, president of the Non-Partisan Lsague of Nations Association, on grounds that a University building may be used for the propagation of poli- tical policies even by self-styled non-partisans, revived the issue. The local chapter of the Ameri- can Association of University Pro- fessors appointed a committee to investigate the situation. The stu- dents' Liberal Club denounced the han as "a flagrant violation of the purposes to which this institution is devoted." Ask Reconsideration Faculty, students and alumni sent a petition of reconsideration to the Regents, but the Regents held to their decision. Wicker- sham then spoke off-campus, to an overflow audience in the Con- gregational Church. As the years passed, the Uni- versity began to make a distinc- tion between public and private speeches of a political nature. Un- til 1949 public speeches were ban- ned, but partisan organizations like the University Democratic and Republican Clubs were allow- ed to bring in leaders from their own parties to speak to them at closed meetings. Big Red Scares Radicalism increased in the United States as the 1920's ended and the 1930's advanced. In 1935 a campus affiliate of the National Student League 'invited John Strachey, British Marxist econom- ist, to speak, but the University Lecture Committee banned him. However, despite the ban, he spoke off-campus before an over- flow crowd of more than 1,000. One month following this speech University President Alexander G. Ruthven issued a sharp warning that "perversive activities of a few professional agitators" would no longer be tolerated. He said at a Regents meeting that "no meet- ings will be permitted on the cam- pus or in University buildings without permission being obtained from University authorities" and he warned that students guilty of misconduct can expect disciplinary action. Rather Narrow "Persons responsible for organ- izing or conducting meetings con- trary to this rule will be dealt with promptly and vigorously," he said. With World War II, the campus community seemed to become too preoccupied to concern itself very much with the speaker policy is- sue or even with inviting speakers, except for speakers who discussed the war effort. After the war, campus organi- zations came back to life and be- gan inviting more speakers. However, both before and after the war, occasional major contro- versies sprang up when subversive speakers were banned. Dial 2-6264 FEATURE STARTS at 1-3-5-7 and '9:20 she- r $r...
