Current art lecture series explores mythology, fact Continuing its exploration into the myths and facts about the relationship between the popular media and art media to avant-garde artists and their audiences, the lecture series Art and Artists: New Directions 4 will entertain the opinions of Helen Mayer Harrison and Newton Harrison. The Harrisons will address the issue of survival with intelligence and originality in their lecture titled "On Method." The Harrisons believe that a work of art should engage you on as many levels as possible. They are the developers of a new school known as "The Ecological Arguments" and
will speak on the subject of method. Their "Arguments" have been transformed into words and images that have been exhibited prominently in Europe as well as in the United States. Their "Map Paintings" incorporate the hand drawn "texts" of their "Arguments." On March 15, June Wayne will speak on "The Creative Process: Artists, Carpenters and the Flat Earth Society." Special student rates and advance group reservations are available on a limited basis and can be made by calling the Palomar College Department at Continuing Education, extension 255.
Scandal and skullduggery are two of the principle elements in the Drama Department's upcoming production of Muriel Spark's Prime of Miss Jean Brodie. Adapted for the theater by Jay Allen, the play is based on Spark's best selling novel about a Scottish girl's school in the 1930's. The plot revolves around Brodie, an eccentric and dramatic instructor, and her inter-relationships with fellow faculty and students. Jealousy and conflict lace the story as two of Brodie's contemporaries, Louther and Lloyd vie for her attention and love. Maggie Smith won an Oscar award for best performance by an
actress in 1969 in her role as Brodie. The title role will be played by Sandy Rankin with Jim Matyunas as Lloyd and Stan McGrady in the role of Louther. Additional cast members include Robin Wooden, Theresa Armagno, Helen Hilden, Nancy Pinkerton, Alicia Pinkerton, Judy Gouveia, Van Hakes, Debbie Garcia, Lori Lewis and Dawn Sheppard.
