Letters and threads Calligraphy has meticulous beauty
By KATHLEEN CONKEY
The exhibit opening tomorrow at the Student Union Activities Fine Arts Gallery is on Saturday, April 17th.
But those who are fascinated by subtle beauty will thoroughly enjoy the exhibit in the Kansas Union, "A Display of the Art and Typography featuring Hermann Hempf."
The most striking point of the SUA exhib is the meticulous attention that each artist has given to the details of letters. The viewer finds himself studying and enjoying the alphabet that he has always taken for granted.
The SUA includes pages of sheepskin books dating back to the 12th century, on loan from the Spencer Research Library; works by Lawrence calligrapher Ewilla Williams; and 30 pieces by Hermann Hall from Hallmark Cards of Kansas City.
Calligraphy is the art of writing beautifully. It died out after the printing press was invented but was rediscovered at the turn of the 20th century. In the past 20 years, calligraphy has been popularized by instruction manuals and special, ready-made pens.
Zapf is a German calligrapher and
typeface has created more than 60
types since he was born.
His works in the show date from the mid 1860s to the early 1970s and include several notable pieces.
Zap's lettering gives an initial impression that it is easy and gracefully executed, but a closer inspection reveals complex nuances; in thickness and style.
Three of the pieces are rough sketches that illustrate the steps he went through to build the sculpture.
Most of Zap's work on display is not noticeably colorful nor are any of the pieces too light. The colors are bright.
his work is entirely in the flowing grace of his lines.
The exhibit, on display in the gallery until Oct. 10, also includes a display of the tools and materials used in the process.
A twenty-minute film, "The Art of Hermann Zapp," will be shown next week. SUA has not yet announced where and when it will be shown.

Dyed fabrics make Spencer bazaar-like
By EVIE LAZZARINO
Reviewer
Visitors to the Helen Foresman Spencer Museum of Art usually feel a bit of a bite. Seventeenth century Dutch gentlemen leer at their husbands' itushed galleries. You feel small, solitary.
It's a comfortable selfitude, but you still asl if, well, as if you're in somebody else.
Now, however, with its first craft exhibit the elegant museum is showing off a more informal side of its personality. Children will enjoy it as much as the adults, and everybody's free to ask questions, learn about and get close to "The Dyer's Art."
As the doors to the Kress Gallery open, the fabrics make the gallery look like a bazar.
Exhultions designer Mark Roeyer and curator Bill Hennessey have done a very good job of explaining the meaning of the
mood to highlight the exhibit's various styles and techniques.
The exhibit includes more than 100 pieces, dating from a pre-Columbian poncho to a contemporary fabric that looks like an abstract painting.
Some of the oldest pieces are ancient tribal fabrics. Roeyer has displayed these in three-dimensional corner clusters, creating a layered effect. The tribal fabrics may originally have hung.
The contemporary pieces were displayed with equal care. A bold geometric patchwork by Ethel Stein, "Hanging," is framed in sleek, contemporary lucite.
Another contemporary work is Guntur Witt's silk batik hanging. It looks much like a canvas by Jackson Pollock, the abstract expressionist who launched a new technique by dripping and splashing paint down canvases.
This piece hangs from the ceiling,
surrounded by lots of breezy space.
Spencer's staff succeeded also in making the exhibit educational. The three dyers' techniques are given special explanation. They work with Kats, bats and plank hang along one wall.
Ikats are fabrics woven from resist-dyed fibers, batiks are fabrics patterned to resist dye by the application of water or other adhesives. These fabrics fold, dye-fabric, stitch-dye and tie-dye fabrics.
These explanations include small examples of fabric, pulled apart to show the stages of dying and the differences among the techniques.
Children also can get into the action in a workshop where they learn to tie-dye their T-shirts. The workshop, "Fabric Fantasia," will be offered on sept. 16 and oct. 23.
"The Dyer's Art" will remain at Spencer through Oct. 8—it definitely worth a visit. Spencer, we always knew you could be friendly.
