" Umbria" - a trio of sculptural forms stands near. the main entrance of the University Centre. Canadian sculptor Walter Redinger describes his cast fiberglass and cast concrete composition as " three units making a combined statement." The fiberglass units, " rest, lean and are bolted on and against the concrete forms creating visual relationship in multi-format The lower concrete area serves as a basic foundation with vary ing heights, angles and shapes, homogeneous with the fiberglass units." Umbria was se lected by the University Com足 mittee on Art Acquisitions, working with a committee from the School of Engineering. The art acquisitions committee oversees the Uni足 versity's art collection which now numbers more than. ~OO items and advises on the suitability of new additions to the collection. During 1974 and 1975 some 85 acquisitions were made. The Uni足 versity's art colle_ction IS the third largest univer足 sity collection in Ontario in terms of value.
