| Summary: | Page 6 THE CONCORDIAN September 19, 1969 HE Offers Study Abroad Grants ft Exhibit Expands" Expression Selected works of 23 artists from the San Francisco Bay Area are on display Sept. 12-24 in the Humanities Center as the opening exhibit of the college's art calendar. The show, which was first presented in the gallery of the Box 125, Astor Station Boston, Massachusetts 02123 San Francisco Art Institute, em-phasizes the wide and unrestric-ted variety of media utilized by working artists today. Line drawings, pastels, water-colors, tempera, acrylics on board and paper, collage and vacuum-formed plastics are in-cluded in the exhibit. The exhibition is one of fin-ished products rather than of working sketches. The common denominator of the participating artists is the conviction that drawings serve as separate and unique means of expression which does not conflict with, but rather expands, the effect of their art in the light of their paintings and sculpture. The exhibit was initiated and developed by the San Francisco Art Institute Artists Committee, an advisory group of prominent Bay Area artists. Gallery hours will be from 1:00 to 5:00 p.m. daily, including Sun-days. It will also be open dur-ing special evening events in the building. Other works scheduled for the school year include a Con-cordia College Art Alumni Show opening Sept. 29; the California College of Arts and Crafts Grad-uate Painting Exhibit, Nov. 2-22. Pablo Picasso: Prints and Old Master Graphics, Jan. 8-23; War-rington Colescott: Etchings, Feb. 1-20; Norman Ackroyd: Aqua-tints, Mar. 8-23; Prints USA; and a Student Exhibition in April.

Plus the cream of softest lambs woo I, in shades to compliment one's entire wardrobe. It will be no surprise to our regular customers, but such architecture is typical, here. We're built that way.
