Colby College in Waterville, Maine opened its new Art and Music Center with an Inaugural Exhibition on October 18. At that time the Center was dedicated to Colby's retiring president, Dr. J. Seelye Bixler. Included in the exhibition were more than two hundred items from the college's permanent collection or on extended loan. Recent gifts accounted for the greater part of this total, and these came as a result of the efforts of the Friends of Art at Colby, an organization formed last spring to improve and enlarge the permanent collection at Colby. Notable among the acquisitions is a large bronze by William Zorach entitled Mother and Child which has been placed outdoors in the Montague Sculpture Court adjacent to the gallery. Other sculptures recently acquired are works by Chaim Gross, Lewis Iselin and Sidney Simon. Prints by Adolf Dehn, Lawrence Beall Smith, Clare Leighton, paintings by Karl Zerbe, Philip Elliott, Milton Avery and Kenneth Callahan have been donated within the last year.
10月18日,缅因州沃特维尔的科尔比学院开设了新的艺术和音乐中心,并举行了首届展览。当时,该中心是为了纪念即将退休的科尔比校长J. Seelye Bixler博士而设立的。这次展览包括了200多件来自学院永久收藏或延期借阅的物品。最近的捐赠占了这一总数的大部分,这是科尔比艺术之友(Friends of Art at Colby)努力的结果,该组织于去年春天成立,旨在改善和扩大科尔比的永久收藏。值得注意的是,威廉·佐拉赫(William Zorach)的一件名为“母亲与孩子”的大型青铜雕塑被放置在与画廊相邻的蒙塔古雕塑庭院的户外。最近获得的其他雕塑作品是Chaim Gross, Lewis Iselin和Sidney Simon的作品。阿道夫·德恩、劳伦斯·比尔·史密斯、克莱尔·莱顿的版画、卡尔·泽布、菲利普·埃利奥特、米尔顿·艾弗里和肯尼斯·卡拉汉的画作在去年都得到了捐赠。

This paper attempts a definitive analysis of the function in liberal education of the study of the fine arts, i.e., the arts of free expression, including literature, painting and sculpture, the theatre arts, music, and dance. It is concerned not with the specific content or subject matter of these studies, but with the qualities of character and personality which are encouraged by the study of the fine arts, in contrast to those developed by science and technology. It demonstrates that liberal education is incomplete when the fine arts are omitted, and that the personality of the student is then correspondingly impoverished in several ways.

The topic under consideration asks a vital question: how can higher standards in college art teaching be achieved? The answer to this question is not simple: art is as complex (or simple) as the individual who creates it; the problems of teaching are involved and complex. The idea of a professional level of attainment in art, which the professional's role suggests, poses a serious dilemma between what to teach and how to teach, a dilemma so serious that the antagonism between the professional artist and the art educator in many art departments has reached such major proportions as to seriously jeopardize the effectiveness of the departments. The topic under consideration, in other words, can be reworded to ask the question: what is the relationship between the role of the professional artist and the role of the art educator?
