ART CONTEST “A tiny, timid thing,” they called the atom! Now it proves capable of improve- ing or destroying all. Also misunderstood and underestimated are the powers of our emotions. The tiniest impulse may cause a crashing avalanche of feeling, making or breaking man’s potentialities. Art is primarily a relaxing outlet, where our heaving, fluid emotions assume shape, crystalize and harden to a purpose “I don’t understand art” . . . you say. Who does? Even the artist understands only his own works, whose hidden sug¬ gestions seem as everchanging as his emo¬ tions. That is why are is just . . . art. “I love art,” you say, because you try to understand it. By feeling its depth and studying its skillful craftsmanship, you appreciate its practical worth to you. We may not feel the full pulse of art’s warm heart, the flex of its powerful muscles and the pattern of its intricate mind, for we are still young, and emotionally incapable of grasping the full substance of it, in our hands. Art is individualistic expression of the mind through mechanical media. The artist himself dreams and hopes to transfer his restless emotions into your soul viat the senses. Directing these forms of self-ex¬ pression into specialization towards hu¬ manity’s universal or local use; that is society’s demand from the individual. At some time or other you may receive in¬ spiration and information from their mas¬ terpieces. Honestly judging a contest according to certain set standards, can present difficul¬ ties. Therefore, yur most profound grati¬ tude is extended to the judge: Miss Goerge, Art Supervisor of Winnipeg Schools, whose sympathetic encouragement and intelli¬ gent criticisms proved valuable to all con¬ cerned. Thanks, also, to Mr. Bailey, our gentle art teacher and art director of this Torch. And so, art, in St. John’s, marches on. SECOND PRIZE Carl Speigel Page Seventy-six Zenon Pohorecky.
