Continued from Page 1 equivalent of all other privileges,” Neizvestny noted. Avoiding the phrase “dissident-artist,” Neizvestny saw himself as a “dissident person” while creating his controversial works of art in the Soviet Union. He created his massive sculptures and paintings to portray among other themes, universal suffer ing and the conflicting “duelism” he views in human existence. His works were never intended to be political. However, unlike Americans, the Soviet govern ment often regards the role of the artist as all-powerful. The artist is seen as nothing less than a powerful magician or prophet who must be stifled if he does not help implement party policies, according to Neizvestny. Now a new member of American art circles, Neizvestny will be sharing his knowledge and expertise with the students and people of Oregon spring term. As humanist in residence and visiting lecturer, Neizvestny will teach a class at the Univer sity on “Synthesis in Russian Culture” as well as work on his life-long project the “Tree of Life,” a tribute to human creativity. When asked how the government of Yuri Andropov will respond to artists who won’t create art in line with party policy, Neizvestny recall ed that during his years in Moscow, several of his artist friends were used in propagan da attempts to “liberalize” the image of Andropov who was then head of the K.G.B. Denouncing such moves as deliberate attempts to “liberalize the policeman,’’ Neizvestny maintained that the propaganda fools no one and does nothing to change the repression of Soviet artists. “Even if Andropov does appreciate art, you have to remember that Himmler used to play classical music on the violin.” Five finalists named in search for University vice president University News Bureau Five finalists have been selected for the position of vice president of administra tion at the University.
