PAGE SIX 1972 Art show IS something different by Cindy Thayer . One place on the campus to find something dif- ferent every month is the art gallery. During the month of February, the gallery has been sponsoring' a crafts show, with articles contributed by various craftsmen in the Baltimore area. From massive macrame wall hangings to plastics, ceramics, and jewelry, the gallery is filled with a variety of unique designs. Many kids on campus have tried to make belts and chokers from macrame, but the gallery has examples of other things made possible by this same craft. Those interested in macrame should see the huge wall hangings, the handbag, and the mobiles. Another popular craft on campus is em- broidery. This also can be found in the gallery, on pillows and handbags. Some handwoven fabrics of many colors, some with messages and some purely for decoration, are also interesting to see. A glass case contains original jewelry made by Nancy and Dick Ackler,' who are designer- craftsmen in Baltimore. The pins, necklaces, earrings, and cuff links demonstrate different designs possible in the combination of silver and wood. There is also jewelry by Roy Fender, an art professor here at Western Maryland. One can also find pottery arid ceramics in the gallery. Some of the ceramics have been in- terestingly combined with a soft fuzzy material, (SOMETHING OIFFERENT) establishing a distinct difference between the soft and hard media. There is a green and pink plastic chess set and a pink plastic candy and cigarette set, both by the same artist. Seeing them is the only way to realize their originality, because a description could not give the full effect. Some pictures are made by batik, which is "a wax-resist method of dying cloth into a pattern of colors." D. Mudgett has created interesting lines with batik in his "Vanishing Skipjacks." Many of the articles on display are for sale and the prices are listed. The display will be there for a little more than week so don't let this week pass without stopping by' the gallery to take a look.
