  • Entertainment 10 March 25, 1982 Metals National On Display Ihe Department of Art and the lectures. Concerts and Exhibitions Committee are co-sponsoring perhaps the most diverse and visual]) pleasing exhibit in the Western campus so far this year. The Metals National Invitational is presently on display in the Belk Art Gallery and will remain until April 14. Casting and jewelry crafting are usually considered the major uses of metal but upon entering the gallery one is immediate!) aware ol the various creative, personal. functional, and decorative aspects of the medium. Randy Jones provides the functional units with his Nutcrackers and Gavel, taking a machines! approach with brass and steel. He certainly reaches his goal of being a fine craftsman rather than an artist by producing highly polished tools one would never use I he vessel format of I.ynne Hull is highlighted with additional media for color variety without obscuring the fine surfaces of her spun aluminum and copper. Though utilitarian in design, Hull brings the functional into the realm of art. Amy Anthony and Thelma Coles both use line and flat surfaces as a basis for expression and provide interesting configurations through three-dimensional drawings. Coles' handling of silvery surfaces and space display an intriguing dichotomy of the austere and the fragile while Anthony's "untitled" works generally just take up space. The latter's The Untitled Drawing. however, is a pleasant blend of line and space. Giza II by Wendy MacGaw is an excellent blend of painted copper and tinted glass which effects a haunting monumentalitv far greater than the si/e of the work; an effect matched onlv in this exhibit by Carol Kumata's Locked River. Kumata's "River" allows its viewers a feeling of momentary diefication by giving them a section of nature's most time-worn spectacle in a compact metal- and-brick casing. Her smaller works depict the "wrappings" and Trappings of fiber materials in me.talic enclosures but integrating them so perfectly that one never overpowers the other: an excellent meshing of the soft and the hard, the vegetable and the mineral. Comic relief is offered in Bruce Metcalf's Metaphorical Desert as Cadillac-finned billboards struggle in the heated sands. His knack tor the poetically surreal is again evident in the serene turbulence of Vessel with a Cargo of Light and in Doorway Into Light where he includes even electricity as an intrigal part of the sculpture. A Woman and A Roof would be an excellent model for teaching the use ol steel girders to architecture students it the women were removed but has little value otherwise. Blue Dance Floor is a beautifully fluid work in plastic by Arm Davidson, but her other works seem to have been designed for a Rockefeller nursery, consisting of pink and blue cartoon-like shoes and other appliques On bowed planes. Martha Glowaeki utilizes a similar plane but uses etched copper plates and metalic grasses to create landscapes that exquisitely demonstrate that metal, too, is a creation of nature. Drawing, color, line, space perception and geometric shapes are all culminated in the "compositions" of Jo Anne Verdon. These five works are composed of five copper plates each forming three walls and the floor of five different rooms with a figure in various reclining positions in each room. However, each plate is coated with enamel adding both color and optical perspective from the simplest to the most complex. The anatomical detail of the figures combined with the crisp lines and decor of the barren cubicals display Verdon as the most well-rounded artist of the exhibit. Though her use of shape and materials is redundant from one piece to the next, each has a mood and emotion all its own. lori Van Houten of the Department of Art organized the Metals National Invitational and should be most heartily applauded for bringing such exemplary- exhibition to Western Carolina University. ^Elizabeth the Queen " To Open The fifth annual Josefina Niggli Theater Production of "Elizabeth the Queen" by Maxwell Anderson will be presented March 29 through April 3 at Western Carolina University.
