Architecture Talk Given
The music of Bach and Handel and the German architecture of their time reflect the same artistic tendency, Thomas Schocken, associate professor of architecture, said in his talk about German baroque architecture to the German club yesterday.
The similarity between baroque architecture's free use of curved and contorted design and the music of these two composers results from a basic unity of the arts, he said.
German baroque architecture belongs to the Renaissance, both in name and in spirit, because the period before German baroque architecture, which began about 1700, showed little German architectural achievement.
The Thirty Years war prevented construction of buildings during the period before 1700, and most creative thought of this period was focused on abstract sciences, such as mathematics and physics, instead of practical sciences, such as architecture, he said.
Former Student Displays Art
The exhibit features weaving, silversmithing, copper enameling and jewelry work.
An exhibit by Wilbur Shaw, art teacher at Shawnie Mission High school and former University student, is now on display on the lower floor of the Museum of Art.
Mr. Shaw, a former resident of Winfield, received his Master's degree in art education from the University in 1954. Since his graduation, he has taught handicrafts at Shawnee Mission High school in Mission, Kan.
His exhibit is being shown in conjunction with the High School Art conference. Each year a Kansas art teacher is selected to exhibit his work at the conference.
Mr. Shaw will conduct a silver-
smithing workshop before the beginning of the University summer session. The workshop is sponsored by the design department, and is being given to help high school art teachers who do not have much silversmithing equipment at their schools. He will teach problems on what can be done with a minimum of equipment.
Americans drank an average of about 17 gallons of beer and other malt brews per person in a recent year, about four quarts of hard liquor and four quarts of wine.
