Salem Art Club To Show Work Of Rosenborg An exhibition of paintings by Ralph Rosenborg, including etch ings of Durham and New York City, will be sponsored by the Salem Art Club from Nov. 8 to Dec. 13. The display will be in the Art Gallery on the third floor of the Salem Library at the regular library hours. Mr. Rosenborg was born in New York City on June 9, 1913. He studied art privately with Henritte Reiss for six years. Since 1935 he has had 27 one man exhibitions. He has partici pated in more than 300 museum and gallery exhibitions in the United States, Europe and Mexico. Works Shown In New York Collections of the artist’s works are in the Museum of Modern Art in New York City and the Phillips Memorial Gallery in Washington, D. C. He is a member of the American Artist’s Congress and American Abstract Artists. Biographical sketches of Mr. Rosenborg are in “Who’s Who in American Art” and “Abstract and Surrealist Art in America.” Mr. Rosenborg defines painting as “an intensification of intuitive introspective instinctive effort.” The subject of art is felt and is honest and consistant with the ■artist’s inner tension during the time of painting, he says. All his paintings are abstract, representing the spirit of the sub ject. The spectator can not recog nize the scenes he depicts because his paintings are concerned more with the spirit of his subject than with a photographic likeness. Completely modern in all kinds of techniques, the artist experi ments with different textures and mediums using palet knives and glazing. By not limiting himself to the exterior world, but painting through his intuition, Mr. Rosen borg’s style is in the modern idiom. A Victini Am I ■'./'V By Nancy Proctor Editor’s note: This theme is an other entry in the freshman essay contest. “Exciting things happen if your hair shines like silk, gleams and shimmers like silk, feels tantaliz- ingly soft as silk.” On and on I read through the Seventeen magazine, searching for beauty hints such as this one for Drene shampoo. Finding myself taking in each word that increases my belief and hope in them, I compare one to the other, and plan on trying them the first chance I get. Why must I always fall victim to these and other adver tisements ? My strongest weakness in being susceptible to ads is in the beauty hints, such as glorifying shampoos, magic cosmetics, and miracle lip sticks. About two years ago I was trapped by just such a promising ad in Seventeen on a flavored type lipstick called “Mad”. The lipstick came in three shades: dark red, red and pink. The flavors were cherry, grape and strawberry. “Mad” was described so delightfully that I couldn’t re sist. I waited the arrival of this novelty for nearly three weeks. When it finally arrived I quickly tore off the wrappings, and with excited fingers I took the gold lip stick tube out of its box. The gold tube was decorated with a tiny red devil holding a pitch fork, and “Mad” was written in red letters across it. The lip stick looked dryed out in a dead, pinkish color. It smelled only faintly like strawberry but more like wax. I should have learned my lesson then about ordering things in magazines, but I didn’t. Since then I have sent off for products of soap and pearls. My weakness for advertisements has led me to buy things I didn’t need, yet I still fall victim to both magazine and billboard ads. As for billboards, contrary to some people’s ideas that billboards are harmful to drivers along the highways, I think they brighten the scenery in certain parts of the country. On a trip once when I passed through the swamp lands in South Carolina, I rode along hour after hour and saw only ,flatland$ ; and marshes. When I finally noticed a billboard for Coca-Colaj the wide spread smile of a pretty brunette girl glared out of the dreary mar shes at me. The romantic scene portrayed .on the billboard was “boy meets girl”. I found myself scheming and won dering if buying a Coca-Cola would help me meet a boy as handsome as the one, on the billboard. Naturally, I began to plan my next chance to buy a Cpca-Cqla. As my attention was distracted from the dreariness of the country side by other colorful billboards for such products as Sunbeam bread. Ford automobiles, and Shell gaso line, I began to enjoy my ride. I was completely unaware of how I am one of many victims of adver tisements ; and try as. I may, I am forever being lured by their at tractive illustrations and ji-ngRs. Salem Joins College Group Salem was one of the 25 -church related colleges to become charter members of the -North Carolina Foundation of Church Related Col leges, Inc., at an organizational meeting on Salem campus yester day morning.
