Robinson Hall Exhibition Gallery Being Remodeled

Greek, Roman Architectural Forms Will Be Broken Up

NO WRITER ATTRIBUTED

Breaking up models of Greek and Roman architectural forms started yesterday in the two-story exhibition gallery of Robinson Hall. This is the first part of a reconstruction program designed by Joseph F. Hudnut '09, Dean of the Architectural School.

The casts, some of which are over 50 feet high, include a model of the portal of the Temple of the Vesta at Tivoli built in 72 B.C., and the columns of the arch of Constantine, installed when Robinson was built in 1901.

The hall is to be made into an exhibition gallery with modern cases and stands. Plans are under way for three to six weeks exhibitions of photographs, models, and drawings of contemporary architecture and allied arts, keeping the school in constant contact with developments in Europe and the United States.
