Sepeshy Criticizes Eilshemius' Work In First Exhibition By LOUISE MARS Discussing the work of Louis Mich- el Eilshemius in the first exhibition of the Ann Arbor Art Association of the year held in the Alumni Me- morial Hall, Zolton Sepeshy of the Cranbrook Academy of Art recently declared the artist a charming minor painter. Mr. Eilshemius has been called typically American, a master of the medium and a truly great artist, but Mr. Sepeshy declared that he could see no call for these titles. The critic said that the painter's fault lies in a poor sense of color value, showing a lack of substance and structure. "A painter must discover some- thing, and Louis Michel Eilshemius has failed to do this," the speaker continued. Even in comparison with contemporary artists, as well as the great master, Mr. Eilshemius is un- favorable. The gallery talk by Zolton Sepeshy marked the final day of this por- tion of the exhibition. The next display will be from the collection of J. B. Neuman and will be on exhibit Nov. 4 at Alumni Memorial Hall. Donaldson To Deliver Cultural Lecture Today Prof. Bruce M. Donaldson, chairman of the division of fine arts, will deliver the fifth in the series of Orientation lectures at 5 p.m. today in the Lydia Men- delssohn Theater. This lecture will be the second in the series of cultural addresses, presenting op- portunities, both curricular and extra-curricular, in the fields of music, art and drama. Student orientation advisers are reminded that their criticisms of the orientation period are due before the lecture today in Miss Ethel McCormick's office. AN EXCLUSIVE FEATURE!
