Lehi High School Receives Two Paintings to Add to Art Collection I.ehi High School has just secured two beautiful paintings by the noted western artist, Paul Salisbury as a special school project. Principal Lloyd B. Adamson reports this week. The paintings, now on display in the central hall at the school, will be hung permanently in the auditorium and library as part of the school's art collection. One of the paintings is a Wyoming scene entitled "On The Range," and the other portrays Navajos in the Natural Bridges country near Moab. Mr. Salisbury, who is recognized as one of the five leading painters of Western scenes in the nation, visited Lehi High School last year to view the art collection, parti cularly the paintings of Paul Evans which the school owns. At that time he expressed pleasure with the collection, stating that it is one of the finest in the state. He estimated the Evans collection as worth .thousands of dollars. At that visit, Mr. Salisbury offered the school a wonderful opportunity to secure two of his masterpieces, which are much in demand by art dealers and patrons. He agreed to sell one to the school at wholesale price and give the school another free of charge. A movement was started immediately to raise the necessary funds to secure the paintings. The school is using funds left by the classes of '48. '49 and '50 io purcnase me painungs, ana Mr. Adamson said a show will probably be held to raise the balance; needed. Selection of the painting for th school was made by the School Art Committee, composed of Reed C. Newbold, Miss Norine Fox, and Mrs. Jean C. Jackson of the faculty, plus members of the Student Council. Mr. Adamson says the school now owns about 50 fine paintings, all of which have been recorded in the school and catalogued library. Many are by Utah and former Lehi artists who gained fame in the art world. He said the paintings provide a wonderful cultural background for the students, and the collecting will continue to grow in coming years. |
