THE SUN, THURSDAY, OCTOBER 24, 1912. OF ART EXHIBITION Pcrnm. of (ho 3InrT)ovpll Club firoup Shows on Public View. rirrriiKs axd sculptuhk Sntnp Moinhprs of the Exhlbit inir Cotprio SpikI Spccl iiiciis of Kncli. If yon would clasp hands with youth, pi in tho M.icDowvll Club gallery at 108 Wet Klfiy-flfth street nnd look at tho w.irk of the eight young men who display thero. through tho next few days, somn e y paintings und pieces of sculpture. Whether you like what thoy show or n.it. you must feel tho Impact of a body of men who aro evidently not drifters liut aro imrxtiinr; their urt with u rush and a iirmsi Thin In in Itself a refreshing element, even tliotiRh tho paths along which they arc going aro not without familiar root print n hero and there, tho marks of tho fnllnWiTH of Claud" Monet and of tho so e.illcd ist -impressionists having led tho way for several of theso art pilgrim. I.lkn others of Matlsso's admirnrs, two contributors to this second group exhibition at tho MacDowell CIul) send both paintings and sculpture. This may bo a sign of artlstla Incontinence, or a proof of an art interest lieyong tho par ticular medium chosen as one's principal means of expression tako it which way you will, thero is something both vital nr.d ingratiating in tho effoct of thlsduol tn A- of utterance. One of tho l.ilinguists Is a sculptor who hns been learning tho languago of paint; the other is a man of tho brush who has taken up the modelling tools as an added nutlet for hU resources. The first is Arthur I,eo. His sculpture is rather eddly out of key with his painting, owing t'rhaps to tho influence of a training in the former that has made for a certain suavity, a balance 'of artistic forces, while the (minted decorations that ho sends have something of the primitive quality that is cherished by tho disciples of a cer tain section of tho post-impressionists. reaching a rawness of color in ono of the flower pieces that mokes tho canvas fairly resound. In tho achievement of Andrew Das- burg, tho other contributor of work in the two forms, there is seen tho out cropping of a consistent development in each. His paintings have Win smack of post-lnipre&ttionism, and his plaster head of Lucifer, modelled with rough force and designed to set the observer's teeth on edge by its contorted visaire. in the pku-tic equivalent of tho pictures. I ven tho most ardent advocates of this new school in art nutst admit that it is Mimetimes a bit. vociferous. And it is oltii just as mannorcu as any of the vicious outer schools; convention is al ways ready to mako tho unwary its own. hvery ono of this little coterie, formed simpiy tor tins urier exninitton, displays a personality det.pito the influences of ksulers that have gone before them. The wido ancle of tho lens of youth is a No in evidence in tho scone of their subjects. Here is one of them, Walter Henry Hooves, who paints nudes in a floral bower, a fountain in a city square. with nurso girls and babies; a warmly colored bit of outdoors showing a sanii cart being loaded with its substantial burden or a studio interior with just enoiich of the leaven of nnst-imnression. Ism in Its design and treatment to make P rresii ana vigorous without lielng rreax ish Kather painty, some of this work. but in tho main the result of definite ideas and a confident recording of them. .The note of confidence is after all ono to be proiwrly valued. It is found again In the pictures by l'aul itohland; It ratily sines from tho handsome canvas whose theme is a nude seated comfortably on the Moor and seen against a background of greens and blues. The painter was lully persuaded, it is easy to see. not only of the beauty and interest of his subject but of his own powers of con veying these to the observer. The last touch of conviction is imparted by the tiny red stone in the ring worn on tho model's right hand. Had tho treatment here been any less sure, this might have been cither affected or ineffective insteed of what it Is, frankly fimtiing, in just tne way tne painter must havo Intended. The placing and modollinc of this nudo are engaging. 'Die picture Is a little insistent, but it is none the worse for its genuine vigor and relf-assertion. Seen across the large nailery it takes its place as a canvas of distinct power. Krnm the same artist have come other pictures not to be overlooked. One of them, "Sand Dunes," a harmony of greens and grays, never sickly in color, is un usually well composed, the pattern being obtained by looking down from a height, upon the landscapo, which takes the form i.f a roughly circular design in its central th"me, i For color that Is both vital and refined look nt one of Oliver Chaffee's still life themes, the one with fruit and a table, with flowers stuck Into an open coffee pot. This warm, glowing piece of painting hns a touch of aristocracy in its choice of enter notes Not all of this painter's wo'k shown hero reaches this level. K'lt a man Is entitled to be placed on the I Lane of his best achievement. When one looks at work like that, of 'olin II Alger, with its heavy dots or strokes of pure color, It is easy to see that "ie Monet tradition has not passed too f r nto tho background amid tho clamor "f ti"wnr methods to command the ' "rlaiico of tho new generation. Mr. ' 'it paints with perhaps too consistent n r lowing of this manner, but it results .r i times in this little group or his m records worth setting down and .int to see. Walter H. Krnnkl and I.enpov Wright are the other is of this second of the MacDowell groups. .Wither Is n seeker for 'v In inothod of utterance, but a point of view, and Mr. Frank I, v In his "Peasant House," has " methiiig agreeable, even beautiful.
