That’s the first expression I had when I visited the Wiezenblatt Gallery, But soon after looking around for a few moments I realized that they weren’t just pictures out of some cheap porn flic. According to Jeff Burden, the artist responsible for the artwork, many different styles were tastefully used to create the effect of dreams, fantasy, and reality.” Burden used many sorts of resources to create the blended images that helped express what he felt, or wanted the viewer to feel. Computers were used, some black and white, and some color, and graphite was also used in other pictures. Not all of Burden’s pictures are of naked women, but that seems to be a common theme. He used the woman as one representation of natural beauty. and blended it together with the flowing overall beauty of the entire picture to appeal to as many people as possible. A question that one may ask him\herself is; “Why are these pictures in such a fine Baptist institution?” Well, maybe society today is beginning to accept all forms of art as nothing but what it was meant to be, art. It’s good to know that our school is not overbearingly protective and respects all points of view whether it may or may not agree with it. After all, art is meant to be viewed and appreciated, not judged and then interpreted for others. : «■ ■M PAGES SPORTS PAGE 2 Amy Webb's Spiders Webb PAGE 4 Arts
