Rentable Art at McMaster Aims to Foster Appreciation
McMaster University plans to loan colored reproductions of famous paintings to students for two weeks at ten cents. Prof Leater Longman, head of fine arts, says the fee acts as a guarantee of interest to encourage careful study rather than casual borrowing. The current exhibit includes 75 framed works from 17th and 18th century masters plus cubist and impressionist pieces from English French Italian and Spanish artists. Canadian reproductions are not included. The idea originated with a Brown University colleague two years ago.
