Staff Editorial f {O p e r a - B a l l e t I m p r e s s i v eOn Frida y, October 15,1 experienced m y firstencounter with ballet at the "Opera Ba llet." Atfirst I was skeptical about-going but I finallydecided to give i t a chance. To say the leas t , Iwas overwhelmingly pleased with the per

formance/It's a sham e that o thers have biased a t t i tudestowards the fine art of ballet, r.now firmly encourage th e dance departmen t to have more performances throughout the years to come.M adame B elova has m y s incere congratula tionson the fine performan ce g iven by the dan ce company . I j 1 \ f I fThe aes thet ic value of {ballet is one-that ispresently above m y creat ive com prehension. Toappreciate it fully, one must take a hard lookwithin the ~rt itself and form self interpretationsof not onl; its values but of its deepe r overallm eaning .The Mercyhurs t community)needs more exposure to the f ine a rts , such as bal le t . Bal le t is ahigh form of creativity which i> viewed by manypeople a t many different levels o f interpretation.It's time for the college com mu nity to wake upand take hold of th e fine a r t s , for their chances ofexposure la ter o n in life w ill m ore than likely-bel imited.For the fine arts overall I would have to saythat s tudents are very ignorant to what l iesbefore th em . We fail to realize that th e creativearts are a gate to our cul tural enrichment .Through this process of exposure to ballet, sculpt ing, paint ing, e tc . , a s tudent m ay not only find ahigh sense of cultural enlightenm ent bu t also enjoyment .The most interes t ing a t t r ibute of art is thateach individual can form! his or her own interpreta t ion of what has been viewed. Art takesus from a world of systematic computerizationwhere i t seems there is never enough t ime foranything. Art is like a mountain in that, whenwe're a t the bot tom we see only?what directlysurrounds us . YeUwhenfone is at the top of thatmountain, his perception, his whole outlook onthings, is broadened great ly . I I k ,The Mercyhurs t dance department and thec rea t ive a r t s division should be encouraged bythe college comm unity to continue their fine outputsof creative talent, for it is through art thatm an's horizons ar e forever growing.Oncef again my congratula t ions to MadameBelova and the M ercyhurs t D ance Company forfurther broadening m y o w n horizons.Chris V a n WagenenMerciad Staff
