j PAGE WGITT THE MICHIGAN DAILY SUNDAY, APRIL 28, 1957 .AI IW THE MCHIGN DALY SNDAY APRL .8 .9- MASTERPIECES BY MINATURE MICHELANGELOS: Children Show Artistic Talent DAILY OFFICIAL BULLETIN Miniature Michelangelos the world over are displaying their masterpieces in the Rackham gal- leries for the month of April. This exhibition of international children's art assembled by the' Department of Art is entitled "A Visual Survey of International Art Education," but is often referred to by its more popular name, "Im- ages, Signs and Symbols." It was set up in connection with the conference on art education held at the University the first of this month, and sponsored by the Museum of Modern Art. Two-hun- dred fifty works from 40 different countries are exhibited. Most Complete Exhibit Selected in an effort to get al comprehensive coss-section of the total collection, rather than for their artistic merit, these pieces represent the work of children from the ages of five to 18. Alex Picke. s, associato professor. in the College of Architecture and Design, who is in charge of the exhibition, says this is the most complete exhibit of this kind ever; to be shown in the United States. He explains that children repre- sent things that are large, things attractive in color, things repre- senting pleasurable associations, human beings for whom they feel emotion, and cows and dogs be- cause of their size and contrast in parts. Consistencies Noticed When the exhibit was put to- gether certain consistencies be- came apparent. It was noticed that younger children all over the world seem to be preoccupied with images: they represent what they would like to see or what they feel rather than carefully sketching in realistic details. As children mature the image seems to lose its importance and1 is repltced by more realistic forms such as signs and symbols. The adolescent is concerned with re- cording accurately the environ- ment in which he lives. He is likely to put a great deal of emphasis on technical proficiency. It is from these observations that the title "Images, Signs and Symbols" was derived.
