EXHIBITION

Aquatints and Soft Ground
Paintings Are Featured in
Black and White Modernistic Design
One of the features for "Lexington
Day" which is being held today is
the annual exhibition of work done
by the students in the department
of art which Is on display in the
Art Center. The exhibit is unusually versatile and well prepared
this year. Ranging from the linoleum block designs by freshmen
to etchings by advanced students,
the entire collection is well worth
the time of any visitor.
In the hall of the Art Center are
the linoleum block prints done by
the beginning students. There are
approximately a dozen of these
prints which are all original and
are all modeled from clasroom
scenes. The Art department has
been invited to send this display
to the Cambridge School for exhibition next year.
At the left end of the hall are a
group of soft ground and aquatint
designs produced by advanced student. They are made by hard
pencils through tissue paper and in
completion resemble pencil drawings
to a large degree. They are in
reality a type of etching, however,
and may be contracted with the
real etchings which hang near them.
In several cases there are etchings
and aquatints in the same design
hanging side by side providing a
lesson in visible contrast of the
works. One of the most favorable
aspects of the soft ground etrbmp
