Highlights
There will be a free public symposium on Freedom and Culture in the Soviet
Union, April 18-23. Noted Russian humanist and sculptor Ernst Neizvestny
will join five other authorities to discuss the reciprocal relationship between
political freedom and cultural development in the Soviet Union. They will
focus on the evolution of Soviet cinema under the aesthetics of "social
realism." The UO symposium will include seven lectures, five films and
numerous opportunities for discussion. See our calendar for the daily schedule.
The UO Museum of Art invites you to an opening reception, 2-4 pm, April 17.
EARTH WEEK 1983, a student-sponsored series of events at the University,
will feature films and lectures on environmental issues plus a "clean-up the Mill
Race" campaign. This celebration, April 16-22, will host several noted authors
and activists: Nick Allen, editor of Diet for a Small Planet, "soft energy" ac
tivists Amory and Hunter Lovins, Norman Soloman, investigative reporter,
Ernest Callenbach, author of Ectopia, journalist Paul Loeb, and more.
Also featured will be the controversial film "Acid Rain from heaven;" pro
duced by the Canadian Film Board. This documentary, about toxic chemicals
from U.S. steel plants mixing with rain to form an acidic solution, has been
declared "foreign propaganda" and anyone showing this film must register
with the Department of Justice!
There will also be a photography competition, the purpose of which is to
compose a visual background of photographs to reinforce Earth Week. The
prints will be judged on how well they relate to the theme as well as photo
graphic merit.
This celebration is full of exciting events. Check the calendar under Earth
Week for complete listings.
