Post-World War II art will be on display at the Tarble Arts Center until Sunday, Jan. 20.

“Paintings from the Collections” is an exhibit of large scale paintings created after 1950, Michael Watts, director of the Tarble Arts Center, said Monday.

The exhibit debuted in Tarble on Dec. 7.

Watts said the featured artists are Alice Baber, Greg Huebner, Raoul Middleman, Carl Morris, Lane Raiser, Harriet Rex-Smith and Carl Shull.

Watts said that Shull is an Eastern alumnus and a former member of Eastern’s art department faculty.

“Shull was also a director of the Paul T. Sargent Gallery, Eastern’s art gallery before the Tarble Arts Center existed,” Watts said. “That gallery was located in the basement of Booth Library and debuted when Booth was built around 1950.”

Watts also mentioned that Baber is from the Kansas-Paris area and took extension classes at Eastern when she was a child.

“(Baber) is a talented abstract artist and she is fairly well-known,” he said.

Watts said that Morris attended the School of Art Institute in Chicago.

“(Morris’s) work is now popular on the west coast,” Watts said.

Watts said that Rex-Smith’s, Raiser’s and Huebner’s paintings were acquired from a previous art exhibition at Eastern.

“Those three paintings were part of the ‘6 for 1976’ exhibition,” Watts said.

“‘6 for 1976’ was an art exhibition at Eastern, celebrating the bicentennial year.”
