MSC Art Exhibit Features
Work Of Two Professors
An art exhibit featuring the
works of two Southwestern Uni
versity professors is now being
displayed in the Memorial Student
Center.
Media exhibited include oils,
drawings, prints (four-color litho
graphs), sculpture and furniture.
The public is invited to view these
works on display until Jan. 31.
The artists are Robert L. Lan
caster, head of the art department,
and Neal T. Putnam, assistant pro
fessor.
Many of Lancaster’s works are
included in pi'ivate collections. His
special areas are sculpture and
design. He has been commissioned
to do sculpture for various insti
tutions and individuals.
Lancaster was one of several
artists to help decorate the $2-
million Golden Age Center in San
Antonio. His contribution to the
Center was a seven-foot, three-ton
sculpture in Austin cream lime
stone depicting three children
clinging to a big figure which could
represent a parent.
His sculpture and paintings have
been included in numerous shows
throughout the country.
Putnam’s work has won the M.
Grumbacher prize for graphic arts
at the eighth annual Audubon
Artists Exhibition in New York
in 1950 and the grand award in
the 1951 New Mexico State Fair.
A former commercial artist, Put
nam’s major areas are painting
and graphic arts. His works also
have been widely displayed
throughout the nation.
The exhibit is sponsored by the
MSC Creative Arts Committee.
