THE MICHIGAN DAILY WEDNESDAY, JUL ate Library Opening OF THE SURREALIST SCHOOL: jonal Cement Strike Visiting Russian Emigrant Teaches Modern A By ERNEST ZAPLITNY "Art has a life of its own; it. cannot be a part of politics," Boris. Margo said in explaining why he left his beloved Leningrad Acad- emy of Art in 1930. Margo, inventor of the cellocut process of art printing, ipainter,. sculptor and prolific writer on modern art, is now conducting a six-week course at the art school. Born in the Ukraine, he entered the Leningrad Academy in 1927 where he studied in Filanov's "An- alytical School of Art." Filanov was an inspiring teacher, Margo said, whose theory was based on a search for "form with- out preconceived ideas." 'Smallest Point' Margo described this as "start- ing from the smallest point, a {dot, to line, to form, to object, to subject." He named Filanov a pioneer of surrealism. Later surrealists, he said,, used the same technique in their ap- proach to this new art form. He spoke of his first few years at the Academy as an "adventur- ous period in modern art." Russia's young people--the intelligentsia- were eager for new forms of ex- pression in all fields. Before 1930, he, added, the Com- munist regime had not yet clamp-j ed down on all aspects of cultural freedom. But the proselytism of art into a facet of Marxist ideol- ogy began to be felt at about that time and he left that year. "Russia has no art at all now," he reflected sadly. Margo arrived in America in 1931 at the age of 27. He com- mented that he found an agree- able absence of a domineering influence in art here. "We are not bound by tradition," he said. "We learn from tradi- tion," he observed, "and by add- ing to it we create. That is why I believe this country will lead in art of the future." In 1932 he began experiments which led to, his development of the cellocut process, considered as the first innovation in fine art printing since the Renaissance contributions. Dissolve Plastic The process begins with plastic dissolved in acetone. The resulting varnish is poured into a rigid support where it can be textured, raised into relief, or working with tools. Printing plates are cast from the impressions. Cellocut can also be used in painting and sculpture. In paint- ing, Margo explained, the canvas _ ,,r;.
