  • TUESDAY. OCTOBER 28,1975 Pros and Cons: THE WESTERN CAROLINIAN PAGE 7 Harrill's art work to be debated Allen Harrill's work is presently on display in the gallerj of the Belk Building, This shov has caused a great deal of controversy. There are many art majors that don't seem to understand these paintings. Tonight in the gallery there will be an open critique of the show. Bill Mclntyre (con) and Karl Hubbs (pro) will openly debate the show. The following are examples of the pro and con sides of the debate. If you have any opinions you would like to voice come tonight and give us some more insight on the matter. If you haven't seen the show this would be an excellent opportunity for you. Come tonight at 7:00 in the gallery of Belk. PRO: KARL D. HUBBS Allen Harrill is a 20th. century artist who is presently working with one of the major styles of the century (minimal art;. In his Banner Series he has taken simplified landscapes and repeated silhouettes in a vertical direction. He has limited his printed canvas to a bit less than one third of that, streched. Allen created a few difficulties in rendering an aesthetic series, by attempting to do a series in minimal art, while also attempting to simplify the painted image of the landscapes of the deserts. This show may be monotonous for the layman, however the idea behind a series is to develop an experiment. In attempting to develop an idea an artist may create many possible variations of the same theme. The layman has a difficult time truly appreciating this task, Then,too the artist may find many viable combinations which lead up to his masterpiece. Allen Harrill's show is an excellent show for the student artist as an example of theme variation. CON: BILL McINTY 1th Allen Harrill's paintings leave one with a sense of "wonder," You wonder where he might be hiding the rest of each painting. You wonder why he has been so highly touted by critics when his work is apparently- very simple, simple in fact to the point that it bores the viewer. One wonders most incredulously how he is able to sell nis works for prices up to 32,000. One critic has suggested that to appreciate a Harrill painting, one must lookatit for an extended period of time. After watching his 'Mesa Banner Series, Thematic Variation #8 in Blue" for twenty minutes, I was convinced there is nothing to the painting;that is,no idea.no suggestion of emotion (not even for emotion's sake), only the same line repeated over and over ad nauseum. One who finds significance or spiritual uplifts in this type of art has my admiration. He is the same type of person who can gain spiritual insight by watching a test pattern on television for hours and hours. "What peace of mind!" It has been said that these paintings leave more to the i- magination and therein, it is said, lies a virtue, By this same criterion, a statesman speaks well for his country by remaining silent. It simply is not true, If an artist wants to express something, he must be explicit, or at least, thoughtfully suggestive. Otherwise, he makes a WCU defeats Appalachian after series of hard losses Western Carolina University's volleyball team rallied Wednesday after a series of defeats to win a hard fought match over Appalachian State. Cross country FROM PAGE 6 elbow-poking crowd of 150 that took the starting gun. Rick Gehle finished 32nd and Tim Otten took 34th position. Gehle and Otten drew praise from WCU cross country coach Paul Jones—"They did an outstanding job. They really finished strong and hope to be .. back stronger next year." Jones tP is particularly pleased with the S progress of Otten, a freshman — this year. — "If we could have gotten z a stronger effort from our 5,6, Z and 7 men it would have been — a closer battle for fourth and ^ fifth place," Janes said. Ap- z palachian finished with 103 Z points, WCU, 139. Z ''But, everything considered, Z we did a good job," Jones said, Z "I'm not disappointed in the —, team effort." - The Cats have two meets re- ~ maining with the North Carolina Z Track Club and Barry College of ; Georgia. Jones wants to see ^ the team better its 6-1 record, z "The season's not over yet, Z we cant let down! We're on = the verge of an outstanding sea- ; son." Jones said. —, He pointed out that all of Z the Cat runners should be re- Z turning next year which can S only improve their chances of [■ another outstanding season. z 'The state meet was Knott's Z best time of the season," Jones = said. "He has been consistent Z and improving with each race," = Jones added, "I can't say enough z good things about the team, Z cere's good morale, they have Z rose to every challenge this Z year, except possibly with Ap- = Palachian (their only loss), = xhey just didn't get up for that _ one," The first two games of the mnch were very close with the first game going to Western 16- 14 and the second game taken by ASU 15-13. Considered as one of the top powers in the state, Appalachian was notable to stop the "Lady Cats" momentum and lost the third game and mc.tch by a blistering 5 to 15. "We had it last night and everything went right," coach Betty Peele explained. "Appalachian didn't play at its' best," she continued, "but even if they had I feel we couldn't have been stopped." "Defensively we tried for two blockers on each one of their spikers," coach Peele went on. "We generated an offense which we haven't done this year by picking up their serves with a good bump so ii could be set for a good spike," she explained, llllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllll Plagued by injuries the last few games, Western was able to utilize all its starters for "a super team effort", she continued. Starters this year include Bonnie Granville (Central Cabarrus High, Harrisburg), Judy Stroud (McDowell High), Brenda Halford (Enka High), Jane Arledge (Enka High), Julie Chlnlund (JBU. Reynolds, Winston-Salem), Janet Cheek (Brevard High), and Teri I-ock- hart (Central High, High Point). Western, having finished its dual match schedule, will again face ASU, Eastern Kentucky (regional champions last year) and other top powers in the state at the ASU Invitational Tournament Oct,31-Nov.l at Boone. Looking forward to a good tournament, "we should play better than we have if we stay healthy," coach Peele added, IllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllltJ THE RED BflrW </'blue ribbon bottles \ I £*5.70 case Paftfy ^applies 2,5 fccAR WASH-FREE VACCUMf >* ©« Phillips fcfe Setf seRotce <jas 7-11 FRI.-SAT.f IN WAYNESVILLE MAGAZINES WINE statement mat is too general to be effective. This, I fear, is the fault of most modern art and Harrill's "landscapes" are so general they may as well cease to be. The only possible merit one could find in these paintings would be in their design qualities.
