Father Tom ' s Art Exhibit The art work in the exhibit of Father Thomas Brown, O.F.M., shows a definite style which is per- sonal. Most of his paintings are done with a knife in a semi-abstract manner. The exhibit offers the college students as well as the Quincy community an oppor- tunity to view original works of art rather than copies. Father Thomas Brown, O.F.M., exhibits his Pieta, a single piece of sculptured mahog- any of Mary holding the dead Christ. Joan Gschwend and Charlotte Parker admire the two-faced, clay sculpture of Comedy-Tragedy. Father Tom shows Larry Brinks and Adele Hallgren his Tablet ' of drawings containing thirty works by pen drawing, conte, pastel and brush done while instructing his classes. 70

Students view the Last Supper, a prominent oil painting in the show, which demon- strates an original approach of the table arrangement. It reduces the meaning to a few symbols, most obvious being the chalice, the dish of bread, and the money bag in Judas ' hand. Rather than along a single wall, the art exhibit is displayed in a small labyrinth wherein the viewer is often surrounded by pieces of art. The life-size crucifix was sculptured from paper mache for the Quincy College Drama Department ' s production of Murder in the Cathedral.
