‘Summer ’85’
Multimedia art display to open tonight in Rudder Exhibit Hall
By MEG CADIGAN
Staff Writer
Summer ’85, a multimedia art
exhibit in Rudder Exhibit Hall of
ficially opens tonight at 7 p.m.
with a public reception. The ex
hibit will be on display through
Sept. 30.
All the works in the exhibit
were done this summer by mem
bers of the Texas A&M Art Pro
gram faculty.
The newly formed Texas A&M
Art Program is currently setting
up an art degree plan.
While giving an exhibit tour,
Joe Arredondo, coordinator of
University art exhibits, described
several artists’ work.
One work one exhibit is a vi-
deofilmoid made by Bill Jenks in
collaboration with Julia Hoerner.
The videofilmoid resembles a
group of slides, but actually “it’s a
series of transparencies made
from a continuous roll of film,
taken from a monitor, Arre
dondo said.
“Pretend there are 100 tele
visions stacked on top of each
other, and that’s what it rep
resents,” he said.
Jenks also has four videotapes
on display.
One of these, “The Garden,
too” is a 30 minute videotape that
shows a scene gradually chang
ing. Each frame of the videotape
is shown for one minute.
“Paintings seem to change ev
ery time you come in front of
them or if you look away and look
back you can see new things,” Ar
redondo said.
He said “The Garden, too”
really does change.
Arredondo also described art
ist Alan Stacell’s work.
“Hejust paints and paints,” Ar
redondo said. “For the most part,
Alan considerers his paintings
disposable.”
He said Stacell will paint on
both slides of a canvas and when
he has too many, he just drives
them to the dump.
Karen Hiller, a photographer,
is displaying a series ot cibach-
rome prints taken during a trip to
Mexico.
Cibachrome prints are essen
tially photographs made from
transparencies rather than neg
atives.
This process gives the artist
more control over the color, Ar
redondo said.
Some of the artists were avail
able during the tour to answer
questions and talk about their
work.
Joe Hutchinson, interim head
of the art program, said his paint
ings were illustrations of his sum
mer trip to Italy. He was teaching
art history as a part of the College
of Liberal Arts study abroad pro
gram.
He said his purpose in painting
this summer was “to try to illus
trate, as best as I possibly can,
what I see.”
Another painter and avid col
lector of color newspaper photo- .
graphs, Dick Davison, said he
doesn’t make a conscious attempt
to put symbolism in his work.
“Things are meaningful in a
sense, but more of a visual sense
than being able to say this stands
for that,” Davison said.

Get our new $49 software module
when you buy an HP-41.
It’s a deal that has no equal, for a calculator that has
no equal.
Our new HP-41 Advantage software module packs
12K of ROM. One and a half times the capacity of any
other HP-41 module. Large enough to hold the most
popular engineering, mathematical and financial pro
grams ever written for the HP-41.
You get comprehensive advanced matrix math func
tions, roots of equations and polynomials, integrations,
base conversion and logic functions, and time value of
money functions.
Our new module is also sub-programmable. So you
can quickly access just a portion of a program, or trans
fer that section to your own program.
And it’s even menu-driven. That eliminates overlays
and reduces the number of prompts.
In short, you get everything it’s going to take to help
you make the grade in everything from Linear Algebra
to Physics to Electronics to Statics and Dynamics.
The HP-41 is a deal all its own. Its operating
system is so advanced, it doesn’t need an “equals”
key. Little wonder it’s preferred by more engineers
than any other calculator.
This is a limited time offer. Call (800) FOR-
HPPC. Ask for Dept. 658B. We’ll instantly give
you the name of a dealer who has no equal.
Do it now. The phone call is free.
But our new module won’t be for long.
