catures and cartoons drawn by
some of the world’s greatest artists.
These drawings were submitted for
use in newspapers and magazines to
earn money or make political pro-
tests. Some were intended for pri-
vate eyes only, as the artists
sketched them for themselves or
their friends. Although these satiri-
cal works may not be regarded as
the greatest done by the artists,
they served to amuse, enlighten,
and, often, to increase the social
awareness of those who viewed
them. Among the 19th and 20th
century masters represented in this
exhibit are Manet, Gauguin, Monet,
Pissarro and Toulouse-Lautrec.
“The Art of Satire’’ appears in the
Sordoni Art Gallery through a grant
given in honor of Dr. Roy E.
Morgan. The exhibition will be open
Mondays through Fridays, noon to 5
p.m. and Thursday evenings until 9
p.m., Saturdays 10 a.m. to 5 p.m.
and Sundays 1 to 5 p.m. For further
