Spooner-Thayer Shows Abstract Art of Kann
A life-size portrait of Shirley Tholen, college sophomore, painted specially for the Seventy-fifth Anniversary celebration, is the high-light in the painting exhibit of Raymond Eastwood, associate professor of painting, now on display in Spooner-Thayer museum.
The portrait of Miss Tholen depicts the costumes that the girl guides will be wearing during the Anniversary celebration in June.
'Third Generation'
The portriat is entitled "Third Generation," since Miss Tholen is the third successive generation of her family to attend the University.
Eastwood also includes figure compositions and numerous striking paintings of the sand dunes near Provincetown, R. I. Eastwood, who spends his summers at Bridgeport, Conn., has painted many pictures of these dunes.
Abstract Paintings
In the north gallery of the museum are a number of abstract paintings by Frederick Kann, instructor of art at the Kansas City Art Institute.
Kann, who is also a musician, obtains his ideas for these abstract paintings while playing music. The paintings, which he does solely for his own amusement, are his ideas of what the music looks like.
In abstract painting, no restrictions are placed upon the painter, and he is free to use his imagination to any extent that he desires. The paintings by Kann are all remarkable abstract color designs.
Both exhibits will remain on display during May.
