CURRENT   EVENTS 


An  exhibition  which  includes  over  one  hun- 
dred works  produced  by  as  many  artists,  rang- 
ing in  age  from  their  early  twenties  to  their 
early  seventies,  covers  a  lot  of  ground.  We  are 
looking  at  the  results  of  a  cultural  develop- 
ment which  has  occupied  two  full  generations, 
and  there  are  voices  here  which  are  speaking 
in  totally  different  languages.  You  cannot 
expect  to  find  a  common  basis  for  all  of  these 
works,  and  you  cannot  judge  them  by  a  com- 
mon standard.  To  the  critic  who  is  inter- 
ested in  the  evolution  of  style,  some  of  the 
contrasts  and  confrontations  which  are  the 
result  of  chronology  are  bound  to  arouse  se- 
rious problems  of  definition,  analysis,  and 
evaluation. 

The  present  exhibition  includes  a  far 
greater  proportion  of  work  by  young  artists 
than  by  old  ones.  This  in  itself  is  symp- 
tomatic of  our  times  and  is  as  it  should  be. 
Those  of  us  who  were  responsible  for  the 
selection  of  the  works  were  guided  by  two 
principal  considerations.  We  hoped  to  include 
examples  of  as  many  of  the  major  directions 


in  which  American  artists  are  travehng  today 
as  possible,  and  we  tried  at  all  times  to  be 
guided  by  a  sense  of  quality:  that  is,  we 
hoped  that  each  work  we  selected  successfully 
accomplished  what  it  set  out  to  do.  Of  course 
there  were  disappointments,  and  there  may  be 
certain  significant  directions  which  are  not 
properly  represented.  The  sense  of  quality  is 
a  very  personal  thing,  and  you  as  a  spectator 
will  undoubtedly  criticize  the  critics  as  you 
make  your  own  evaluations  jmd  judgments. 

Many  years  ago  the  German  art  critic  Wil- 
helm  Finder  wrote  a  perceptive  though  hardly 
definitive  little  book  called  Das  Problem  der 
Generation  in  which  he  argued  that  the  pre- 
cise date  of  one's  birth  had  a  profound  in- 
fluence on  all  subsequent  developments  within 
the  individual.  This  is  obvious  and  of  course 
true,  but  the  implications  of  Finder's  general- 
izations have  not  often  been  precisely  studied 
in  relation  to  specific  works  of  art.  Perhaps  if 
we  look  at  the  110  works  in  this  exhibition 
chronologically  (not  by  date  of  execution,  but 
by  artist's  birthdate),  we  shall  be  able  to  un- 


derstand  some  of  the  developments  we  have 
lived  through  in  a  way  that  will  give  meaning 
to  forms  which  by  themselves,  isolated  and 
unrelated  to  others,  seem  at  first  inexplicable. 
It  will  also  bring  us  face  to  face  with  a  cultural 
problem  which  is  not  often  realized  by  the 
very  young,  but  is  very  much  an  issue  with 
many  others:  the  problem  of  the  aging  in- 
novator. What  happens  to  the  artist  who  finds 
himself  turning  into  a  contemporary  old 
master?  Once  an  influence  on  others,  a  pace- 
setter, an  "original,"  he  suddenly  finds  his 
younger  contemporaries  striking  out  in  totally 
different  directions,  unsympathetic  or  (worse) 
simply  not  interested  in  what  he  has  to  say.  A 
few  creative  spirits  seem  themselves  to  be  age- 
less and  to  live  completely  within  the  terms 
of  changing  times;  a  few  seem  not  to  be  both- 
ered by  changing  standards  and  are  able  to 
work  consistently  within  boundaries  they  early 
established  for  themselves.  But  many  others 
are  genuinely  disturbed  when  they  find  that 
they  no  longer  speak  a  Ijuiguage  which  is  un- 
derstood by  their  younger  contemporaries. 
This  is  one  reason  why  the  whole  field  of  edu- 
cation in  the  creative  arts  is  in  such  a  difficult 
state  at  the  present  moment.  Artists  can  learn 
in  a  variety  of  ways,  but  whether  it  is  any 
longer  possible  for  them  to  teach  remains  a 
question. 

The  gap  between  the  generations  is  one  of 
many  evidences  which  we  see  in  modem  cul- 
ture resulting  from  the  disintegration  of  a  con- 
tinuing sense  of  tradition.  Up  until  the  period 
of  World  War  I  a  basic  and  continuous  cul- 
tural tradition  informed  almost  every  aspect 
of  western   civilization.    Even  developments 


which    were    revolutionary    were    inevitably  " 
linked  to  what  had  gone  before  in  specific 
evolutionary  ways.  In  the  field  of  the  fine  arts, 
an  appreciation  of  craftsmanship  provided  afl 
basis  for  development,  even  when  everything 
else  changed.    But  today,  we  are  more  and 
more  made  aware  of  the  fact  that  the  cultural 
values  of  the  past  have  not  been  transmitted 
to  young  people  in  the  same  sense.    These 
values  are  probably  better  known  than  they  ' 
ever  were  before  (through  books,  reproduc- 
tions, museums),  but  they  remain  detached 
and  unused.   It  seems  more  and  more  impos- 
sible to  build  upon  the  past,  to  start  at  the 
point  where  someone  else  left  off.  Many  recent 
developments  seem  rootless.  Oskar  Kokoschka  . 
speaks  of  young  people  today  as  "entering  on 
life  with  empty  hands." 

The  kind  of  thinking,  seemg,  and  execution 
which  is  evident  in  works  created  by  artists 
who  are  thirty-five  years  old  or  younger  is  not 
like  that  of  artists  bom  in  the  1920's  or  earlier. 
While  there  are,  of  course,  an  enormous  num- 
ber of  different  ways  of  approaching  the  prob- 
lem of  creating  a  valid  expression  for  our 
times,  it  is  not  impossible  to  see  certain  recur- 
ring themes  and  attitudes  which  reveal  them- 
selves in  different  ways. 

For  one  thing,  there  is  a  mood  of  detach- 
ment about  much  recent  work.  The  excite- 
ment of  the  manipulation  of  the  material  for 
its  own  sake  becomes  more  and  more  a  mark 
of  maturity  or  old  age.  Precise  surfaces  and 
the  use  of  mechanistic  forms  and  methods  are 
frequent.  There  is  a  sense  of  calculation,  an 
avoidance  of  the  attitude  that  the  work  almost 
formed  itself  without  the  artists  knowing  what 


was  happening  —  an  attitude  frequently  ex- 
pressed by  artists  a  few  years  ago.  Many  of 
these  young  artists  know  exactly  what  they 
intend  to  do,  and  follow  a  precisely  deter- 
mined pattern  of  decisions.  There  is  a  substi- 
tution of  a  new  kind  of  discipline  for  the 
reliance  on  intuition  and  the  accidental  which 
prevailed  until  recendy. 

This  youthful  mood  of  detachment  may 
find  its  expression  in  sharply  opposing  ways. 
On  the  one  hand,  it  is  seen  in  the  intense 
concentration  of  certain  artists  upon  the  most 
minutely  observed  details  of  physical  reality, 
with  apparently  entire  emphasis  on  material 
forms  which  are  outside  of  the  artist  himself, 
and  a  deliberate  avoidance  of  "interpreta- 
tion." Often,  however,  these  analytical  ob- 
servations are  unrelated  one  to  another  and 
deliberately  avoid  adding  up  to  a  cumulative 
or  unified  whole.  At  the  opposite  end  of  the 
scale  is  the  kind  of  detachment  which  reveals 
itself  in  works  which  have  simply  avoided 
almost  all  of  the  pictorial  and  spatial  problems 
which  largely  determined  the  formal  structure 
and  content  of  works  of  art  in  the  past  — 
pictures  without  illusion  and  without  expres- 
sion, works  which  (in  the  conventional  sense) 
are  deliberately  empty  and  undifferentiated, 
lacking  individual  handwriting.  Is  this  an 
escape  from  the  troubling  complexities  of 
actual  life,  or  is  it  a  return  to  great  elemental 
basic  forms  —  a  sort  of  visual  id?  Whatever 
the  ultimate  significance  of  these  opposing 
kinds  of  detachment  may  be,  they  cannot  be 
judged  by  standards  which  applied  in  earlier 
cultural  situations.  The  kind  of  descriptive 
figural  image    in  these  new  works  cannot  be 


measured  by  norms  which  were  appropriate 
to  impressionism  any  more  than  can  the  mys- 
terious emptiness  of  other  works  be  measured 
by  classical  standards. 

It  is  not  always  easy  to  see  what  is  cause, 
what  is  effect.  Is  the  gulf  which  exists  between 
young  artists  and  old  artists  today  the  result  of 
the  loss  of  tradition,  or  has  this  loss,  this  root- 
lessness,  been  itself  the  reason  for  discarding 
traditional  forms  and  methods?  Young  artists 
may  indeed  enter  on  life  with  empty  hands, 
but  their  hands  do  not  remain  empty  long.  If 
they  no  longer  grasp  the  past  as  the  material 
out  of  which  to  build  the  present,  they  grasp 
other  materials.  Two  things  in  particular  have 
taken  the  place  of  tradition  in  the  evolution  of 
the  art  of  our  times.  One  of  these  is  the  artist's 
own  deepest  inherent  personality,  and  he  has 
sometimes  become  engrossed  in  himself  as  was 
seldom  done  in  the  past.  He  has  discovered 
the  universe  within  and  has  turned  away  from 
that  other  universe  of  which  he  is  himself  a 
part.  The  other  new  emphasis  has  come  from 
his  preoccupation,  his  involvement,  with  that 
extension  of  himself,  the  man-made  products 
of  an  industrial  society.  The  world  of  nature 
retreats  as  the  world  of  man  advances.  The 
raw  material  of  art  today  is  the  hidden  inner 
spirit  of  the  individual  man  on  the  one  side, 
and  the  mechanized,  industrialized  environ- 
ment which  man  has  built  for  himself  in  the 
later  twentieth  century  on  the  other. 

Among  the  qualities  of  "young"  art  are  the 
following :  descriptive  realism  devoid  of  judg- 
ment, photographic  vision,  precisianism,  the 
influence  of  engineering,  interest  in  actual 
physical  motion  and  in  actual  light,  a  realiza- 


tjon  of  the  significance  of  emptiness,  emphasis 
on  pure  geometric  form,  the  big  scale  of 
simple  undifferentiated  images,  the  eradica- 
tion of  firm  boundaries  between  different  art 
forms,  the  avoidance  of  self-expression  and 
self-realization,  the  use  of  commercial  or  ad- 
vertising imagery.  In  one  way,  this  last  char- 
acteristic (which  led  to  pop  art)  links  up 
more  strongly  with  some  styles  of  the  past, 
because  it  is  marked  by  a  kind  of  enthusiasm 
and  involvement  which  is  often  lacking  in  the 
other  qualities  which  have  been  enumerated. 
These  add  up  to  an  attitude  and  a  method 
which  differ  at  almost  every  point  from  the 
mature  art  of  the  abstract  expressionist  gener- 
ation, which  must  now  adjust  itself  to  a  situa- 
tion in  which  it  has  been  turned  into  a  con- 
servative older  group. 

One  important  element  which  separates  the 
generations  is  the  attitude  toward  and  the  use 
of  materials.  Painters  used  to  be  people  who 
brushed  oil  paints  on  canvas,  or  who  stained 
paper  with  water  colors,  just  as  sculptors  used 
to  be  people  who  carved  wood  or  stone,  or 
modeled  clay  to  be  cast  in  bronze.  Traditional 
materials  and  time-honored  techniques  are 
now  combined  in  new  ways,  or  are  frequently 
abandoned  by  young  artists,  who  no  longer 
find  them  adequate  for  expressing  the  forms 
and  ideas  with  which  they  are  concerned. 

Materials  and  techniques  which  were  de- 
veloped primarily  for  industrial  use  have  been 
redirected  into  powerful  and  expressive  chan- 
nels. Most  of  these  processes  were  developed 
in  order  to  speed  up  mass  production,  to  re- 
duce costs,  to  do  away  with  laborious  long- 
term  hand  methods,  or  to  satisfy  a  vast  con- 


sumer market  which  demands  goods  of 
constantly  novel  design  and  of  identical 
standardized  quality.  Are  these  same  demands 
now  determining  factors  in  the  production  of 
works  of  art?  Certainly  many  young  artists 
are  impatient,  unwilling  to  undergo  the  long 
and  laborious  kind  of  training  of  technical 
craftsmanship  which  was  traditionally  a  signif- 
icant part  of  their  education.  Individual  ex- 
pression more  and  more  becomes  equated 
with  swiftness  of  execution,  and  it  is  not  only 
the  expense  of  such  time-honored  techniques 
as  bronze  casting  and  stone  carving,  but  akc 
the  comparative  ease  of  execution  in  nevs 
materials,  which  lead  the  artist  joyously  to 
experiment  with  every  new  material  and 
method  offered  him.  ■ 

Colors  produced  for  industrial  purposes  dr\ 
rapidly  without  changing  their  essential  char- 
acter. Plastic  paints  and  acrylic  and  vinyl 
resins  offer  many  possibilities  which  were  not 
available  to  the  painter  of  the  past,  such  as 
impastos  which  do  not  crack  and  a  choice  be-l 
tween  mat  or  glossy  surfaces.  New  plastii 
materials  like  polyethylene,  polyvinyl,  poly- 
ester resin,  plexiglas,  and  fiberglas  invite  all 
sorts  of  experiments  and  suggest  the  increasing 
use  of  polychromy  in  sculpture.  Sculpture  is  no 
longer  almost  entirely  a  matter  of  carving  or 
modeling  or  casting:  the  use  of  wire  screen 
ing,  of  cutting  and  fitting,  of  welding,  of 
assembling,  of  materials  like  aluminum,  mag- 
nesium, and  stainless  or  structural  steel,  lead 
to  new  forms  and  new  feelings. 

Is  a  two-dimensional  rectangular  object 
made  out  of  metal  a  piece  of  sculpture?  It 
is  certainly  not  a  painting.  The  fact  is  that  the 


lines  of  demarcation  between  art  forms  be- 
come indistinct.  More  and  more  we  are  un- 
able to  distinguish  between  painting  and 
sculpture,  just  as  every  print  technique  may 
now  be  used  in  a  single  plate.  Craftsmanship, 
which  used  to  be  a  manual  skill,  increasingly 
becomes  an  appropriate  use  of  industrial  ma- 
terials and  mechanical  methods. 

The  immaculate  metallic  planes  of  Max 
Finkelstein,  with  their  startling  opposition  of 
visual  surface  effects,  suggest  some  of  the  new 
possibilities,  just  as  the  animated  mechanical 
beings  of  Enrique  Castro-Cid  seem  now  like 
an  inevitable  expression  of  the  contemporary 
human  condition.  Is  there  such  a  thing  as 
machine  art?  The  flashing  lights  of  Howard 
Jones,  controlled  by  the  precision  of  com- 
puter programming,  seem  to  promise  that  a 
whole  new  field  of  expression  is  opening  up 
for  us.  Sometimes  it  is  in  the  form  of  a  precise 
but  unidentified  functional  object,  as  in  the 
careful  constructions  of  such  artists  as  Richard 
Randall,  or  in  the  use  of  utilitarian  objects  for 
expressive  purposes,  as  in  the  nail  composi- 
tions of  Robert  Seyle,  that  we  see  new  direc- 
tions. John  Willenbecher's  superbly  executed 
boxes  describe  inexplicable  activities;  they 
open  up  into  astronomical  proportions.  John 
Freeman's  work  is  more  than  a  triumph  of 
cabinet-making:  it  is  also  a  portent,  a  prod- 
igy; it  has  a  strangely  prophetic  character. 
Forms  which  seem  to  have  been  designed  for 
the  most  specific  kinds  of  functional  activity 
mysteriously  conceal  what  that  function  may 
be.  The  machine  becomes  an  instrument  of 
contemplation,  of  allusion,  rather  than  of  use. 

Three-dimensional  primary  forms,  of  aus- 


tere geometric  design,  become  increasingly 
prominent.  These  may  be  complex,  like  the 
work  of  Lillian  Floreheim,  fashioned  of  several 
diflfcrent  materials,  or  stripped  to  boxlike  se- 
verity, as  is  the  work  of  Vasa.  Certainly  there 
are  new  possibilties  in  the  field  of  truly  archi- 
tectural design,  as  Gerald  Laing  and  Craig 
Kauffman  show  us.  The  big  scale  and  aggres- 
sive positivism  of  Richard  Van  Buren  strike 
us  as  an  authoritative  proclamation  when  we 
compare  it  with  the  shifting,  vagrant,  impul- 
sive, tentative  statements  of  some  artists  of  an 
earlier  generation,  whose  works  were  con- 
structed on  the  trial-and-error  principal.  The 
works  of  many  young  artists  may  indeed  be  in 
error  (only  time  can  tell  this),  but  they  are 
not  trials. 

The  tendency  toward  impersonality  reaches 
its  climax  in  the  style  to  which  Jules  Langs- 
ner  gave  the  name  of  hard-edge  painting. 
Some  artists,  like  John  McLaughlin,  expressed 
themselves  naturally  this  way  many  years  ago 
(he  is  one  of  the  older  artists  in  the  exhibi- 
tion ) ,  but  such  pioneers  were  for  a  long  time 
largely  eclipsed  by  their  contemporaries  who 
glorified  the  impetuosity  of  highly  individual- 
ized performance.  Now  such  a  visual  lan- 
guage —  cool,  controlled,  direct,  avoiding 
suggestion  and  illusion  —  seems  an  inevitable 
and  natural  characteristic  of  a  generation 
which  contains  important  elements  which 
have  deliberately  detached  themselves  from 
an  outpouring  of  personal  emotion.  Geometric 
plans,  as  in  the  work  of  Will  Insley  and  Dean 
Fleming,  remain  completely  systematic  and 
are  unrelated  to  the  shifting  quality  of  visual 
impressions.  On  the  other  hand,  that  it  is  not 


impossible  to  apply  such  a  disciplined  manner 
to  recognizable  material  is  demonstrated  by 
George  Mueller,  whose  architectural  themes 
suggest  a  kind  of  flat  symbolic  perspective  — 
a  new  way  of  implying,  rather  than  of  realiz- 
ing, space.  The  architectural  quality  of  such 
work  is  obvious  and  understandable.  Some- 
times it  is  entirely  specific,  as  in  Thomas 
Akawie,  who  develops  the  actual  ground  plans 
of  Medieval  and  Renaissance  buildings  into 
splendid  abstract  patterns;  sometimes  it  is 
reduced  to  a  kind  of  engineering  drawing,  as 
in  the  work  of  Arakawa,  who  seems  to  pre- 
sent us  with  directions  for  the  construction  of 
monumental  structures  which  conceal  their 
character.  The  bold  directness  of  Edwin  Ruda 
and  Kenneth  Noland  go  off  in  one  direction; 
the  greater  surface  refinement  of  Herbert 
Bayer  in  another;  and  it  is  understandable 
that  such  an  ordered  and  tightly  controlled 
style  should  experiment  with  startling  color 
relationships  for  visual  optical  stimulation,  as 
with  Miriam  Schapiro. 

There  is  a  special  group  of  young  precision- 
ists,  who  express  themselves  with  immaculate 
surfaces  and  a  studied  avoidance  of  impulse 
or  accident.  Everything  is  calculated,  orderly, 
almost  untouched  and  untouchable.  Much 
of  the  purely  geometric  work  is  of  thb  nature, 
as  are  the  vibrating  color  compositions  of  the 
op  artists,  but  this  mode  is  found  in  repre- 
sentational work  as  well.  Peter  Dechar  con- 
centrates upon  the  swelling  forms  of  fruits, 
removing  them  from  all  sense  of  environment, 
taking  them  out  of  context,  and  giving  them 
an  unexpected  and  startling  sense  of  grand 
scale.  Lowell  Nesbitt  observes  the  sterile  forms 


of  nineteenth-century  architecture,  and  ere 
ates  disturbingly  empty  but  grandiose  images 
of  structural  power.  We  have  seen  the  archi- 
tectural motif  handled  in  the  past  with 
romantic  or  sociological  or  purely  formal  as- 
sociations, but  we  now  see  it  in  a  new  kind  of 
isolation.  Much  recent  representational  work 
detaches  the  objects  represented  from  their  ex 
pected  surroundings,  reduces  the  overtones  wc 
are  accustomed  to,  and  stresses  a  kind  of 
stripped  purity.  Even  such  a  timely  militar) 
motif  as  that  seen  in  the  work  of  Sam  Rich- 
ardson is  presented  impersonally.  Barbro 
Ostlihn  turns  a  pattern  of  geometric  cubes 
into  a  monumental  structure  of  great  stability 
and  cumulative  effect.  That  such  work  may 
mark  the  continuation  of  long-established  tra- 
ditions is  shown  by  the  still-life  composition.' 
of  Paul  Cadmus. 

A  striking  development  of  the  mechanistic 
side  of  recent  art  is  the  greater  and  greater 
emphasis  upon  actual  physical  movement. 
We  can  no  longer  think  of  the  work  of  art  ^a- 
static,  or  as  suggesting  movement  by  symbolit 
images  or  by  relying  upon  the  physical  move- 
ment of  the  spectator  to  bring  it  to  life.  Ever 
since  the  mobiles  of  Alexander  Calder  an- . 
nounced  exciting  possibilities,  artists  have  in-" 
creasingly  designed  works  which  actually  arc 
in  motion  as  the  result  of  natural  forces  (air 
currents,  gravity,  magnetism),  or  by  motoriza- 
tion. A  monumental  development  of  the  di- 
rection started  by  Calder  is  seen  in  the  work 
of  Jerome  Kirk;  the  shifting  color  films  of 
Fletcher  Benton  are  completed  by  continuous 
motion;  while  magnetic  and  gravitational  re- 
sources are  relied  upon  by  Alberto  Collie  and 


i 


Ronald  Mallory.  Actual  light  rather  than  sym- 
bolic light,  too,  becomes  an  element  in  recent 
design.  The  flashing  compositions  of  Howard 
Jones  and  Gregorio  Vardanega,  with  seem- 
ingly infinite  possible  combinations,  and  the 
moving  color  areas  of  Palatnik  are  engrossing 
ways  of  handling  such  materials.  The  end- 
lessly fascinating  movement  of  matter,  never 
repeating  itself,  is  a  prime  element;  All  of 
these  experiments  suggest  that  a  new  concept 
of  realism  is  now  prevalent.  We  now  realize 
that  cdl  so-called  realism  in  the  past  was  sym- 
bol, was  illusion:  many  contemporary  artists 
are  unwilling  to  deal  with  such  intangibles, 
and  find  that  they  must  handle  the  actual  stuff 
of  physical  existence. 

The  desire  to  present  a  complete  and  self- 
contained  experience  in  the  individual  work 
of  art  has  led  to  a  new  kind  of  unity  in  many 
recent  works.  This  is  seen  in  one  way  by  the 
exclusion  of  illusions  and  associations,  and  in 
another  by  a  very  conscious  breaking  down  of 
the  barriers  which  separate  the  various  art 
forms.  Many  young  artists  obviously  do  not 
think  of  themselves  as  painters  or  as  sculptors, 
but  as  designers  in  a  total  sense.  Two-  and 
three-dimensional  design  merge.  For  the  first 
time  since  the  neoclassic  style  placed  a  pall  of 
whiteness  upon  pure  marble  surfaces,  and 
color  variations  were  excluded  from  metal 
forms,  the  designer  and  constructor  of  three- 
dimensional  forms  thinks  naturally  in  terms 
of  color.  Canvas  is  no  longer  a  flat  plane 
clinging  to  the  wall,  but  it  projects  into  space, 
proclaiming  the  new  tangibility  of  actual  ex- 
perience. Whether  the  shaped  canvas  remains 
colorless,  as  in  the  work  of  Herbert  George,  or 


is  as  fully  developed  in  color  as  was  the  tra- 
ditional picture  plane,  as  in  the  geometric 
compositions  of  Charles  Hinman,  it  forces  the 
spectator  into  a  new  kind  of  relationship  with 
itself.  Actual  space  relationships,  as  in  recent 
works  by  James  Jarvaise,  take  the  place  of 
the  kind  of  perspective  which  used  to  mean 
space  to  us.  It  is  interesting  to  see  such  a  com- 
pletely painter-like  artist  as  Samuel  Adler  re- 
sponding to  new  impulses,  and  reexpressing 
his  personal  style  in  a  form  of  construction 
which  is  as  much  sculpture  as  it  is  painting. 
Combinations  of  metal,  wood,  and  paint  bring 
surface  and  shape  into  new  and  exciting  rela- 
tionships, as  in  the  work  of  Arlo  Acton. 

Our  mechanistic  world  has  affected  our 
vision  profoundly.  We  no  longer  see  our  sur- 
roundings, for  instance,  as  our  ancestors  saw 
them  before  the  invention  of  photography  and 
the  development  of  all  kinds  of  cheap  and 
swift  methods  of  reproduction  bombarded  us 
with  pictorial  images  which  are  quite  differ- 
ent from  those  which  reach  us  directly 
through  our  own  built-in  physical  equipment. 
While  it  is  not  impossible  for  us  to  recapture, 
to  cultivate,  the  kind  of  actual  vision  which 
was  behind  many  of  the  great  artistic  styles  of 
the  past,  it  often  requires  a  conscious  effort 
to  do  so.  The  organic  perspective  vision  of  the 
Renaissance,  for  instance,  is  no  longer  able 
to  cope  with  the  physical  apprehension  or  the 
mental  concept  of  space  today,  just  as  it  is  not 
easy  or  natural  for  us  to  see  elements  of  nature 
with  the  kind  of  vision  which  the  romantic 
period  possessed.  The  influence  of  mechaniza- 
tion on  art  is  not  simply  the  result  of  the  in- 
vention and  the  use  of  new  materials,  or  the 


discovery  of  new  worlds  of  subject  matter,  but 
it  has  ako  affected  the  artist  within  himself 
in  ways  which  are  both  physical  and  psycho- 
logical. 

An  obvious  evidence  of  this  is  the  way  in 
which  many  young  artists  today  use  the  photo- 
graph with  an  honesty  and  a  directness  which 
has  led  to  certain  remarkable  results.  From 
its  very  origin  the  photograph  had  a  profound 
influence  on  the  so-called  "fine  arts,"  but 
for  a  long  time  it  was  an  influence  which  was 
not  really  admitted  by  the  artist  —  it  was 
something  hidden,  a  secret.  After  an  initial 
phase  in  which  certain  nineteenth-century 
artists  attempted  to  turn  themselves  into  ma- 
chines and  to  rival  the  camera  on  its  own 
terms,  the  tendency  was  to  use  the  photograph 
as  a  sort  of  automatic  sketchbook,  recording 
motifs  and  materials  which  the  artist  then 
reworked  in  his  own  manner.  He  generally 
attempted  (perhaps  unconsciously)  to  dis- 
guise this  dependence  and  to  preserve  a  kind 
of  fiction  that  nothing  had  come  between  him 
and  the  world  of  nature  from  which  he  was 
drawing  his  themes. 

But  today  a  great  deal  has  come  between 
the  artist  and  the  world  of  nature.  He  sees 
this  world  in  terms  which  are  highly  self- 
conscious,  but  at  the  same  time  he  is  acutely 
aware  of  a  total  society.  In  many  cases,  he 
sees  it  at  second  hand  rather  than  as  a  direct 
experience.  This  is  why  we  see  an  increasing 
number  of  young  artists  who  present  us  with 
realistic  compositions  which  are  obviously 
founded  on  the  mechanical  vision  of  the  snap- 
shot, with  its  precison  of  silhouette,  its  frequent 
blurring  of  interior  detail,  its  arbitrary  cutting 


off  of  essential  forms  at  the  picture's  edge,  its 
reliance  upon  tone  and  value  rather  than  on 
color  for  its  quality.  The  photograph  becomes 
not  something  to  provide  raw  material  for  the 
artist,  not  an  aide-memoire,  but  a  dominant 
form,  a  kind  of  primary  vision,  which  com- 
pletely controls  the  final  result. 

One  characteristic  of  the  photographi( 
image,  particularly  of  the  product  of  the  new> 
photographer  or  the  snapshot  of  the  amateur, 
is  its  sense  of  arrested  motion  —  the  figure  in 
violent  action  which  has  been  suddenly  frozen. 
This  is  quite  a  different  kind  of  visual  move- 
ment from  that  which  impressionism  created, 
with  its  merging  of  form  and  atmosphere,  or 
from  that  which  the  expressionists  developed, 
with  an  almost  physical  impulse  within  the 
material  form  of  the  work  itself.  It  does  not 
allow  the  spectator  to  experience  the  kind  of 
empathy  which  many  earlier  forms  suggested. 
But  it  is  the  sort  of  motion-image  with  which 
we  are  familiar  in  newspapers  and  other  pop- 
ular publications,  and  has  become  the  stock- 
in-trade  of  much  advertising  art.  Some  inter- 
esting things  have  happened  to  it  in  the  hands 
of  artists  who  are  exploiting  it  for  larger 
purposes  than  those  prevalent  in  mass  com- 
munications media. 

The  petrified  snapshot  image  of  movement 
can  be  curiously  ambiguous  and  deceptive. 
The  combination  of  precise  description  and 
enigmatic  meaning  is  something  which  seems 
to  offer  distinct  possibilities  to  younger  artists 
today.  A  figure  in  shadow  may  be  presented 
with  great  exactness,  and  yet  leave  us  with  the 
mysterious  quality  of  the  silhouette,  which 
does  not  tell  us  whether  we  are  looking  at  the 


front  or  the  back  of  the  basic  form.  The  pho- 
tographer generally  takes  more  than  one  shot 
of  a  single  subject,  and  this  accords  well  with 
the  tendency  so  many  artists  have  now  of 
working  in  sets,  of  reexpressing  the  same 
image  again  and  again  with  certain  variations. 
It  relates,  too,  to  the  use  of  the  multiple  image 
in  a  single  work:  not  the  multiple  image  in 
superimposed  evolutionary  movement,  as  it 
was  long  ago  seen  in  futurism,  but  rather  the 
successive  frames  of  a  motion  picture  which 
has  been  arrested.  No  painter  has  more  inter- 
estingly exploited  the  photographic  possibil- 
ities of  contemporary  vision  than  has  Robert 
Harvey.  In  design,  in  composition,  in  color, 
his  work  is  an  exacting  realization  of  man 
and  nature  seen  through  the  mechanical  lens, 
rather  than  through  the  eye  and  mind  of  the 
artist. 

A  notable  characteristic  of  the  kind  of 
photographic  vision  which  is  now  encountered 
so  frequently  in  American  painting  is  the  com- 
bination of  extremely  active  forms,  which  may 
even  approach  violence,  with  an  almost  com- 
pletely impersonal  handling  of  the  medium 
itself.  The  disengagement  of  the  artist  is  con- 
tinually encountered.  Where  once  he  ex- 
pressed himself,  achieved  the  ultimate  in 
identification  with  the  creative  act  by  com- 
plete involvement  with  the  medium,  active 
or  violent  representational  themes  are  now 
couched  in  terms  which  studiously  avoid  the 
personal  handwriting  of  the  artist:  surfaces 
are  smooth  and  undifferentiated,  the  brush- 
stroke invisible.  Photographic  vision,  which 
records  coldly  and  mechanically  the  most  in- 
tensely active  and  personal  acts,  has  a  strong 


appeal  to  many  artists  today.  Kendall  Shaw's 
silhouetted  athletes  (probably  derived  from 
news  photos  from  the  sports  pages)  are  ex- 
amples. The  fluent  outline  undulates  with 
sensitive  movement,  but  the  blank  surfaces 
and  completely  impersonal  handling  studi- 
ously avoid  all  expression  of  a  personal  in- 
volvement of  the  artist  with  the  theme.  One 
almost  has  to  go  back  to  certain  types  of  nine- 
teenth-century academic  painting  for  parallels, 
though  the  utter  avoidance  of  sentimentality 
or  romanticism  completely  separates  the  two 
styles. 

Wayne  Thiebaud's  figures  pose  stiffly  and 
self-consciously  against  an  absolutely  neutral 
background.  Direct  reliance  on  the  photo- 
graph is  interestingly  handled  in  Noel  Ma- 
haffey's  painting,  in  which  the  actual  photos 
become  an  element  of  collage  in  the  final 
work.  The  painter  has  not  worked  from  the 
living  models,  but  obviously  and  frankly  from 
a  series  of  photographs  which  become  them- 
selves part  of  the  completed  work.  He  allows 
us  in  this  case  to  see  what  his  process  of  selec- 
tion has  been,  as  he  takes  an  attitude  or  ges- 
ture from  one  exposure,  and  combines  this 
with  others  from  still  other  films.  Is  there 
some  significance  in  the  fact  that  the  creator 
of  this  timely  painting  is  the  youngest  artist  in 
the  exhibition? 

Another  notable  characteristic  of  the  snap- 
shot (particularly  when  produced  by  amateur 
photographers)  is  the  way  in  which  forms  are 
suddenly  and  often  unexpectedly  cut  off  by 
the  edge,  sliced  through  in  exactly  those  areas 
which  the  conventional  academic  artist  of  the 
past  would  have  taken  care  to  center  or  to 


surround  with  a  "proper"  amount  of  space. 
Philip  Pearlstein's  figures,  their  heads  or 
shoulders  abruptly  and  unexpectedly  termi- 
nated by  the  frame,  are  examples.  This  artist 
illustrates  still  another  aspect  of  photographic 
vision:  the  striking  differences  in  scale  be- 
tween those  parts  of  the  body  which  are  closest 
to  the  lens  and  those  which  are  farthest 
away.  Such  disparities  were  generally  mini- 
mized in  conventional  figure  construction  in 
the  past.  Intense  observation  of  detail  and 
indifference  to  or  actual  avoidance  of  a  sense 
of  total  unity  are  characteristics  of  many  con- 
temporary works  —  and  not  oiJy  in  the  world 
of  art. 

There  are  other,  and  increasing,  uses  of  the 
multiple  image:  the  same  figure  or  form  in 
successive  stages  of  movement,  or  from  alter- 
nate points  of  view.  The  former  is  exempli- 
fied by  Gerald  Gooch,  the  latter  by  Andy 
Warhol.  The  superimposition  of  one  image 
upon  another  is  avoided;  instead,  we  read  a 
sequence  in  successive  stages.  Has  not  the 
comic  strip  kind  of  narrative  contributed  to 
this  kind  of  presentation?  Gooch  shows  the 
active  figure  in  a  sequence  of  movement,  and 
cleverly  divides  one  image  from  another  by 
actual  physical  separation.  Warhol,  in  his 
"made-to-order"  pictures,  assembles  standard 
images  with  certain  individual  variations. 
Both  artists  avoid  intruding  themselves  into 
the  fabrication  of  their  work. 

Joe  Raffaele's  paintings  are  in  many  ways 
extraordinarily  complete  expressions  of  some 
of  the  major  qualities  and  characteristics  of 
the  new  kinds  of  vision.  There  is  intense  and 
probing  observation  of  fragments:   figures  are 


seen  only  in  imexplained  parts  rather  than  a> 
wholes.  There  seems  to  be  no  logical  relation- 
ship between  these  penetratingly  observed  de- 
tails; not  only  are  they  unrelated  to  each 
other  in  theme  and  in  scale,  but  they  are 
placed  against  a  completely  neutral  back- 
ground which  denies  to  them  any  under- 
standable or  fixed  place  in  the  world  of  spac( 
and  time.  There  is  a  tense  emphasis  on  phys- 
ical pain  which  often  makes  the  spectator 
cringe;  there  is  a  strong  undercurrent  of  sexu- 
ality in  actions  and  images.  There  is  a  perfectly 
frank  utilization  of  the  kind  of  mechanized 
vision  with  which  the  photograph  has  made 
us  completely  famiUar,  and  which  has  ver)' 
largely  taken  the  place  of  direct  observation 
of  nature.  There  is  seemingly  little  desire  for 
"self-expression,"  which  for  so  long  was  con- 
sidered an  essential  element  of  artistic  cre- 
ation. There  is  a  desire  to  startle  and  perhaps 
to  shock  the  spectator  in  an  immediate  and 
personal  way,  but  at  the  same  time  the  artist 
conceals  himself  behind  a  sort  of  mechanical 
and  impersonal  glibness. 

These  are  all  characteristics  which  are 
painfully  evident  in  the  events  which  are  daily 
presented  to  us  in  the  newspaper,  the  radio, 
the  TV,  and  which  are  particularly  evident 
in  advertising  art.  We  know  an  enormous 
amount  about  detailed  events,  and  remain 
woefully  ignorant  of  the  significance  behind 
them.  We  feel  isolated  in  the  midst  of  con- 
stantly increasing  physical  contacts.  People 
become  things;  pure  sensation  takes  the  place 
of  contemplation  or  judgment.  Of  course  the 
artist  is  sensitive  to  these  currents  in  our  cul- 
ture, and  it  is  inevitable  that  he  should  seek 


expressive  ways  of  embodying  them.  There 
are  qualities  in  our  present  situation  which 
demand  a  new  vocabulary  for  their  expression. 

One  category  of  "young"  art  which  has 
been  most  difficult  for  an  older  generation  to 
understand  (let  alone  to  accept)  is  the  kind 
of  work  which  excludes  almost  everything 
which  has  been  most  precious  in  the  past  — 
not  only  the  exclusion  of  subject  and  content, 
but  also  the  exclusion  of  form  in  its  classical 
sense  of  compositions  made  up  of  parts  one 
related  to  another,  as  well  as  apparendy  the 
exclusion  of  self-expression  in  any  individual 
sense.  For  at  least  ten  years  there  has  been  a 
group  of  artists  who  have  turned  away  from 
the  sort  of  work  which  we  have  ordinarily 
thought  of  as  self-expression  —  that  is,  if  we 
equate  this  term  with  highly  individualistic 
ways  of  handling  the  media,  much  of  it  devel- 
oped along  intuitive  lines,  utilizing  the  often 
exciting  effects  of  the  "happy  accident."  This 
has  been  an  alternative  to  the  abstract  expres- 
sionism which  seemed  adequately  to  express 
the  mood  of  artists  in  the  period  immediately 
following  World  War  II.  We  have  seen,  in- 
stead of  the  briUiant,  loose  handling  and 
almost  unconscious  symbolism  of  the  abstract 
expressionists,  the  suppression  of  modeling,  the 
elimination  of  textural  variation,  the  limita- 
tion of  color  contrasts.  This  is  a  tendency 
which  has  steadily  increased  and  has  drawn 
more  and  more  artists  into  its  orbit.  It  is  now 
a  major  element  in  the  art  of  our  times. 

We  encounter  more  and  more  works  in 
which  the  entire  work  is  a  unit,  rather  than 
an  organization  of  separate  units  each  with  its 
own  character  and  individuality.    Forms  ex- 


tend throughout  the  entire  composition,  often 
with  the  suggestion  that  they  continue  on  into 
surrounding  space.  Works  which  involve 
only  a  single  form  or  a  single  undifferentiated 
color  are  seen  increasingly.  Some  of  them  are 
not  without  a  strange  kind  of  emotional  im- 
pact, but  it  becomes  increasingly  difficult  to 
define  what  precise  emotion  is  stimulated. 
Whereas  abstract  expressionist  art  frequently 
seemed  obscure  because  of  the  highly  personal 
kind  of  imagery  or  symbolism  which  the  artist 
used,  the  obscurity  of  this  more  recent  devel- 
opment is  frequently  combined  with  the  most 
exacting  clarity  of  form.  Sharpness  of  mate- 
rial definition  and  clarity  of  meaning  (or  con- 
tent) are  not  necessarily  related. 

One  result  of  this  attitude  is  that  we  see  an 
increasing  emphasis  on  the  work  of  art  for 
itself,  rather  than  on  the  artist  as  a  unique 
human  being.  The  excitement  of  process  be- 
gins to  pall;  the  dictum  that  art  is  "becoming" 
rather  than  "being"  sudderdy  seems  a  little 
old-fashioned.  The  possibility  that  art  may  be 
a  mirror  of  the  absolute  rather  than  a  kind  of 
therapeutic  activity  on  the  part  of  certain 
highly  charged  individuals  is  something  to  be 
seriously  considered. 

What  does  such  art  mean?  The  meaning 
lies  in  the  very  presence  of  the  work  of  art, 
not  in  what  it  suggests  or  what  it  symbolizes. 
Such  catch  words  as  "primary  forms,"  "sys- 
temic painting,"  "minimal  art,"  emerge  in 
an  attempt  to  establish  some  kind  of  category 
for  such  works  as  have  turned  away  from 
the  violence,  the  intensity,  the  life-within- 
the-medium  of  what  may  be  the  final  phase 
of  abstract  expressionism.    Some  critics  have 


seen  in  this  a  return  to  classicism,  though  a 
classicism  which  is  certainly  devoid  of  historic 
overtones. 

Two  kinds  of  adverse  criticism  are  fre- 
quently launched  against  such  work.  It  is  an 
art  of  "nothingness,"  we  are  sometimes  told, 
and  it  is  an  art  which  denies  the  kind  of 
personal  and  aesthetic  self-expression  which 
for  a  long  time  has  been  considered  one  of  the 
great  values  of  art. 

There  are  certainly  works  being  produced 
today  which  seem  to  many  of  us  devoid  of 
meaning  and  which  also  seem  to  tell  us  very 
little  about  their  creators.  But  the  hangers-on 
of  every  historic  style  in  times  past  produced 
works  which  in  any  true  or  significant  sense 
seem  to  us  meaningless,  and  there  were  artists 
in  the  past  who  expressed,  not  themselves,  but 
lessons  learned  by  rote  from  more  potent 
sources.  We  must  judge  every  movement  by 
its  successes,  not  by  its  failures.  And  it  is  by 
no  means  impossible  that  we  are  at  this  stage 
seeing  the  emergence  of  a  kind  of  aesthetic 
thinking  which  is  not  only  in  tune  with  the 
unique  conditions  of  our  moment  in  history, 
but  also  capable  of  expressions  of  significance 
and  truth.  I  think  we  must  accept  the  fact 
that  singleness  of  purpose  and  the  unity  of 
imagery  (even  to  the  extent  of  undifferen- 
tiated forms,  colors,  or  textures)  are  not  neces- 
sarily and  always  a  negation  of  meaning,  an 
acceptance  of  nothingness.  The  infinite  exists 
within  the  single  unit  as  well  as  within  com- 
plex proliferations  of  multiple  units. 

There  is  a  stripping  away  of  everything 
which  might  be  considered  extraneous.  Such 
young  painters  as  Brice  Marden  and  Donald 


Kaufman  present  us  with  works  which  in  one 
sense  are  devoid  of  illusion  or  suggestion, 
which  every  trace  of  "illustration"  has  beet 
rejected.  We  see  these  very  much  as  we  se 
isolated  objects  of  the  natural  world.  They 
negate  shape,  subject,  and  form.  Sometime 
the  pure  field  of  color  is  handled  with  greater 
surface  variation,  as  in  the  paintings  of  Jules 
Olitski  and  Vic  Smith,  but  remains  a  singu- 
larly concentrated  expression. 

The  traditionalist,  whether  he  be  creator  or 
spectator,  will  of  course  ask  how  far  it  is  pos- 
sible to  carry  an  aesthetic  philosophy  which 
rejects  more  and  more  contacts  with  the  ex- 
ternal world  at  the  same  time  that  it  avoids 
the  kind  of  self-realization  which  for  at  least  a 
century  has  been  basic  to  modem  art.  When 
we  encounter  works  which  present  us  with  the 
frames  of  elaborate  medieval  triptychs  con- 
taining panels  painted  in  absolutely  undifTer- 
entiated  flat  colors,  or  when  we  see  the  work 
of  artists  who  are  now  showing  completely 
empty  frames,  we  are  forced  to  wonder 
whether  we  are  witnessing  the  end  of  art  as  it 
has  been  known  in  the  past.  It  is  quite  pos- 
sible for  works  which  contain  no  trace  of 
obvious  symbolism  to  be  themselves  symbols, 
and  it  may  be  that  the  austere  avoidance  of 
involvement  which  such  works  suggest  is  aii 
inevitable  expression  of  some  of  the  character- 
istic qualities  of  our  times.  The  paradox  lies 
in  the  fact  that  while  we  accept  the  fact  that 
we  begin  once  again  to  concentrate  on  the 
work  of  art  as  such,  instead  of  on  the  imique 
personality  of  the  artist  as  a  specific  human 
being,  the  work  may  lose  exactly  those  quali- 


ties  which  have,  in  the  past,  made  the  study  of 
works  of  art  a  life-enhancing  occupation. 

Where  does  this  leave  the  kind  of  painting 
which  is  generally  called  abstract  expression- 
ism or  action  painting?  For  twenty  years  this 
has  been  a  powerful  and  pervasive  movement 
in  American  art.  It  has  had  a  profound  influ- 
ence on  art  education,  and  it  is  possible  that  it 
will  find  its  final  fortress  in  the  schools,  which 
do  not  easily  give  up  a  point  of  view  which  has 
been  basic  to  educational  philosophy  for  a 
generation.  The  leading  artists  who  pioneered 
this  effort  are  now  men  and  women  in  their 
late  forties  and  fifties  or  early  sixties;  this  is 
a  style  which  has  reached  full  maturity  and 
which  is  now  seen  as  a  generally  conservative 
element.  Not  many  artists  in  their  thirties, 
and  till  fewer  in  their  twenties,  find  the  ab- 
stract expressionist  idiom  congenial  —  or  at 
any  rate,  they  seem  unable  to  use  this  lan- 
guage with  the  energy  and  inventiveness  of 
their  older  contemporaries.  Such  artists  as 
Kenzo  Okada,  Willem  de  Kooning,  Philip 
Guston,  William  Kienbusch,  and  Friedel  Dzu- 
bas  are  now  seen  as  having  a  kind  of  old 
masterish  aura  which  sits  a  bit  uneasily  on 
their  shoulders. 

But  many  artists  refuse  to  see  man  as  a 
machine,  and  are  unwilling  to  resign  from 
humanistic  contacts.  They  continue  to  be  in- 
volved with  man  as  a  complex  physical  form 
and  as  the  great  enduring  motif  for  the  ex- 
pression of  the  individual  personal  problem. 
Such  painters  as  Morris  Broderson  and  Ben 
Kamahira  are,  at  first  glance,  deceptively  old- 
fashioned,  with  their  scrupulous  regard  for  the 
external  realities  of  material  experience,  but 


their  art  turns  out  to  be  surprisingly  symbolic, 
full  of  ambiguous  undefined  references,  almost 
demanding  that  the  individual  work  be  placed 
in  an  actual  sequence,  opposed  to  the  now 
popular  policy  of  complete  independence  of 
the  individual  work  of  art.  Broderson's  paint- 
ing is  one  of  a  lengthy  and  ambitious  series 
which  explores  and  expresses  a  significant 
theme  from  many  difTerent  points  of  view; 
in  a  sense,  it  is  literary,  just  as  was  much  of 
the  great  church  art  of  the  past.  Other 
humanist  artists  see  the  great  image  in  more 
fluent  terms :  the  rich  illusionism  of  Jack  Le- 
vine,  the  powerful  emergence  of  the  figure 
from  within  the  medium  of  Nathan  OUveira. 
A  joyful,  healthy,  rich  mingling  of  figures  and 
enveloping  nature  characterizes  the  paintings 
of  Morton  Kaisch,  and  it  is  reassuring  to  see 
the  refinement  and  control  of  Isabel  Bishop  in 
a  work  of  singular  charm,  or  the  fine  simplic- 
ity of  Fairfield  Porter.  The  expressionistic 
tradition,  in  which  the  figure  is  intensified 
and  enriched  but  without  losing  contact  with 
the  motif  outside  of  the  artist's  own  mind,  is 
powerfully  handled  by  Abraham  Rattner  and 
with  boisterous  vigor  by  Lee  Savage.  John 
Paul  Jones  romantically  merges  the  figure 
with  a  consuming  landscape,  while  Robert 
Bechtle  hides  it  in  precise  shadowy  space. 
That  it  is  still  possible  to  deal  with  the  theme 
with  old-time  bravura  and  brilliance  is  seen 
in  the  recent  work  of  Paul  Georges,  an  aston- 
ishing recrudescence. 

Surely  it  is  significant  that  the  motif  of  the 
human  figure  missing  from  an  environment 
which  implies  that  it  is  present  emerges  in  a 
time  like  ours.  This  is  encountered  in  the  most 


direct  and  dramatic  way  in  the  work  of  John 
Battenberg,  whose  extraordinar)'  compositions 
of  military  uniforms  in  poses  of  vehement  ac- 
tivity astonish  us  by  their  actual  emptiness. 
Here  are  garments  which  are  molded  into 
movement  in  a  highly  personal  way,  but  the 
individual  is  not  there.  More  and  more  we 
seem  to  concentrate  upon  disembodied  action, 
rather  than  upon  individual  initiative  and 
realization,  or  rather  than  upon  personal  con- 
frontation. Nor  it  is  lacking  in  significance 
that  Battenberg's  uniforms  belong  to  the 
period  of  World  War  I  and  not  to  the  pres- 
ent; a  haunting  and  a  haunted  quality  has 
brought  these  remnants  of  a  violent  past  into 
a  ghostly  kind  of  energetic  but  impersonal  life. 
Harold  Tovish  also  deals  with  man  as  a  miss- 
ing element  —  a  negative  form,  an  impression 
of  a  reality  which  has  vanished. 

One  result  of  the  space  age  has  been,  in 
many  works,  the  abandonment  of  the  tradi- 
tional sense  of  gravity  as  the  controlling  and 
determining  factor  of  composition.  The  art 
of  the  past  was  based  on  the  idea  that  all 
forms  in  space  were  related  in  a  gravitational 
sense  to  the  earth's  surface,  and  proportions 
and  relationships  were  developed  instinctively 
by  the  artist  on  this  premise.  Today  we  are 
no  longer  earth-bound,  and  the  traditional 
pull  toward  that  part  of  the  material  universe 
we  happen  to  inhabit  no  longer  strikes  us  as 
the  only  or  the  inevitable  way  of  ordering  the 
shapes  and  the  relationships  with  which  the 
artist  deals.  The  reaUty  of  man  moving 
weightlessly  in  the  infinite  space  of  a  universe 
which  is  not  only  vastly  larger  than  that  con- 
ceived by  mankind  in  ancient  times,  but  into 


which  he  has  himself  actually  penetrated,  h 
not  been  without  effect  on  the  artist, 
may  be  an  obvious  theme  in  itself,  as  we  see  i 
Sam  Richardson's  astronaut  lifting  off,  but  ij 
will  also  reveal  itself  in  the  figural  images 
George  Cohen,  which  move  in  large  diagon 
directions  in  opposition  to  the  picture  fram( 
and  to  any  implication  of  a  stationary  horizon, 
The  motif  of  the  falling  man  has  been  develi 
oped  with  symbolic  power  by  Ernest  Trovai 
often  this  repeated  image  moves  in  circular 
arrangements  which  make  it  impossible  for  us 
to  say  that  the  work  has  a  top  or  a  bottom. 
The  isolation  of  realistically  descriptive  details 
torn  out  of  context  and  floating  in  a  kind  of 
negative  blankness  in  Joe  RafTaele's  work  are 
further  examples  of  a  space  sense  which  has 
abandoned  all  traces  of  formal  perspective  as 
a  control.  The  violently  foreshortened  figures 
of  Richard  Lytle  destroy  any  sense  of  the  pic- 
ture plane.  John  Hultberg's  dramatic  dis- 
tances sweep  into  deep  but  still  architectural 
space,  but  seem  to  detach  themselves  from  a 
stable  frame. 

Not  unrelated  to  this  feeling  of  forms  freed 
from  the  controls  of  classical  space  and  the  re- 
straints this  imposes  is  the  increasing  tendency 
to  avoid  the  pure  rectangle  as  the  almost  in- 
evitable and  invariable  shape  for  a  work  of 
two-dimensional  art,  or  else  to  swing  it  around 
so  that  it  is  seen  on  a  diagonal  axis.  Diamond 
shapes  or  lozenges  acquire  a  new  potency,  just 
as  it  no  longer  seems  possible  to  avoid  actual^ 
physical  space  relationships  in  many  com^ 
positions. 

The  kind  of  involvement  with  the  smashing 
visual  images  of  commerce  and  advertising 


d 

I 


and  mass  appeal  which,  a  few  years  ago,  led 
to  the  development  of  pop  art,  is  no  longer  as 
widespread  as  it  was.  The  pop  artists  opened 
our  eyes  to  expressive  and  sjinbolic  possibil- 
ities in  terms  whose  banality  and  obviousness 
was  a  part  of  their  power;  though,  on  the 
whole,  this  movement  seems  to  have  lost  the 
forward  impulse  it  once  had.  But  there  is  still 
work  coming  out  of  this  aspect  of  the  raw 
material  of  art  which  impresses  us  with  its 
authority.  Robert  Indiana's  work  has  now 
reached  a  stage  of  almost  classic  distinction; 
no  one  else  has  been  able  to  glorify  the  sign, 
the  signal,  the  stencil,  to  the  extent  that  he 
has.  The  vast  billboard  details  of  James 
Rosenquist,  often  frighteningly  unrelated  one 
to  another,  continue  to  overwhelm  us.  Andy 
Warhol's  mechanical  reproductions  of  familiar 
images  beat  a  kind  of  cumulative  tattoo  on 
our  sensibilities  and  make  an  effect  through 
sheer  repetition.  Here  it  is  the  sensibility  of 
the  spectator,  not  of  the  creator,  which  is 
brought  into  play.  Such  popular  images  as 
fashion  models,  children's  toys,  comic  strip 
figures,  appear  as  sources  in  works  by  Ronald 
Kitaj,  Robert  Nelson,  and  Larry  Rivers. 
There  is  a  hearty,  good-natured,  mindless 
enthusiasm  in  the  work  of  Roy  Schnackenberg 
which  makes  one  feel  good.  A  strange  min- 
gling of  the  ordinary  and  the  exotic,  the  near 
and  the  far,  removes  the  work  of  Frank  Gallo 
from  any  of  the  obvious  categories  in  which 
we  are  inclined  to  place  it. 

Another  groups  of  artists,  instead  of  delving 
within  their  own  individual  personalities,  or 
measuring  the  infinite  in  one  way  or  another, 
or  submitting  themselves  to  the  restraints  of 
formal  systems,  seems  to  probe  into  the  phys- 


ical reality  of  matter.  There  is  something 
organic,  even  visceral,  about  some  recent 
imagery.  It  penetrates  beneath  surface  ap- 
pearances, and  reveals  a  kind  of  life  which  is 
intense,  even  though  it  does  not  involve  the 
specific  individuality  of  either  the  artist  or 
some  animate  being  separate  from  him.  Some- 
times, as  in  the  sculpture  of  Roger  Bolomey, 
it  is  raw  nature,  unshaped  in  any  overt  way, 
with  which  we  seem  to  come  to  grips  —  there 
is  something  geological,  pre-human,  about  this 
artist's  work.  Daniel  Shapiro  creates  forms 
which  are  turgid,  expanded  or  inflated  by 
some  organic  impulse  which  works  from  with- 
in out  to  the  surface.  Deborah  Remington's 
precise  abstract  paintings  delicately  define 
structural,  almost  evolutionary,  kinds  of  rela- 
tionships, while  patterns  of  growth  are  traced 
in  the  proliferating  plastic  forms  of  William 
Dubin.  Sometimes  the  eternal  renewal  of 
organic  life  is  suggested  by  the  world-egg 
which  Louis  Schanker  confines  within  archi- 
tectural boundaries;  sometimes  it  is  expressed 
in  recognizable  anatomical  form,  as  in  the 
strange  figures  of  Richard  Boyce,  which  com- 
bine monumental  proportions  with  intense  in- 
ternal activity  and  a  curious  floating  lightness. 
What  will  happen  next?  The  thing  that 
never  ceases  to  interest  us  is  that  we  do  not 
really  know.  The  creation  of  works  of  art  is 
not  part  of  a  predetermined  plan.  It  develops 
through  the  unique  confrontation  of  a  specific 
individual  and  a  particular  combination  of 
events  and  situations.  It  is  often  a  surprise. 
Whether  there  are  seminal  works  by  young 
artists  in  the  present  exhibition  which  may 
direct  the  course  of  the  future  only  time  can 
tell.  Allen  S.  Weller

canvas,  76x50.    Stable  Gallery,  New  York. 

"My  work  is  primarily  about  the  things  pic- 
tured in  it.  Their  description  is  objective  and 
their  presence  detached.  They  are  homeless,  yet 
independent  and  self-contained.  Before  anything 
else,  they  are  what  they  are.  If  nostalgia  is 
stirred  within  the  viewer,  it  will  have  more  to  do 
with  the  viewer  than  with  the  images  them- 
selves." (Courtesy  of  Art  in  America,  Vol.  LIV, 
No.  4,  1966,  p.  34.)

Aluminum,  58'/i  x  30  x  1 12.  Royal  Marks  Gal- 
lery, New  York. 

"My  concern  in  sculpture  has  been  to  control 
idea  and  mass  in  a  form  involving  the  observer 
as  a  participant  by  reflecting  man's  idea  devel- 
opments. Areas  of  the  unknown  today  are  fron- 
tiers symbolized  by  programmed  machines  and 
orbiting  hardware. 

"The  artist  in  our  past  could  reflect  his  time 
in  a  more  objective  manner  with  emphasis  on 
the  strength  of  the  individual.  Today  sculpture 
is  very  time  and  environment  conscious  with 
masses  which  not  only  displace  a  given  area  of 
space,  but  involve  the  observer  with  his  own 
emotions." 

Duayne  Hatchett  was  born  in  Shawnee,  Okla-

"There  is  no  one  answer  to  my  work,  for  I 
work  consciously  and  unconsciously  with  dif- 
ferent ends  in  mind.  For  me  to  discuss  what  is 
happening  in  my  work  would  destroy  my  goal 
as  an  artist.  Each  person  should  be  able  to  find 
something  in  the  work  for  himself.  Hopefully 
each  viewer  will  see  a  story  or  an  entire  new 
thing  by  projecting  his  imagination  into  the 
work."

JOHN  HULTBERG,  Great  Glass  Roof,  1965. 
Oil  on  canvas,  36  x  48.  Martha  Jackson  Gallery, 
New  York.   (1957,  1959,  1961) 

".  .  .  Why  do  v\e  strive  to  communicate  by 
searching  for  the  bizarre  and  trivial,  instead  of 
aiming  for  the  center,  for  the  melodies  which  are 
waiting  for  us  to  invent?  AVe  look  at  art  as  we 
look  at  science,  noising  about  each  extravagance 
as  progress  toward  a  desired  though  unknown 
goal;  yet  these  novelties  never  quench  our  ennui. 

"If  my  painting  appears  repetitive,  lacking  in 
inventive  variations  or  wide  connotations,  perhaps 
this  is  because  I  want  some  kind  of  icon-like  sta- 
bility instead.  As  the  plague  of  despair  and  dis- 
honor spreads  I  find  it  necessaiy  to  retrench 
instead  of  seeking  new  escapes.  Standing  in  the 
midst  of  this  sickness  I  hold  on  to  painting.  It's 
too  late  to  expect  solace  from  the  conceits  of  the 
surrealists  or  the  laboratory  work  of  the  abstrac- 
tionists. In  this  grim  time  of  transition,  when  we 
are  balanced  between  destruction  and  hope,  we 
deserve  that  which  can  comfort  and  warm  us, 
make  us  whole  again.  I  want  to  gather  together 
those  scattered  insights  that  modern  art  has  un- 
covered and  burn  them  in  an  eclectic  bonfire  in 
this  frozen  desert.  In  these  somber  embers  per- 
haps I  may  be  allowed  to  glimpse  once  more  the 
poetry-  and  romance  I  felt  as  a  child.  Now  that 
the  values  of  the  outside  world  have  become 
meaningless  for  me  I  rejoice  that  I  find  in  paint- 
ing a  way  to  create  my  own  earth." 

John  Hultberg  was  born  in  Berkeley,  California, 
in  1922.  He  attended  Fresno  State  College,  where 
he  received  his  B.A.  degree  in  1943,  and  the  Art

geles. 

"For  me  painting  and  sculpture  are  combined. 
Shades  and  shadows  are  not  important.  I  am 
achieving  plasticity  and  illusion  of  form  by 
painting. 

"I  am  working  with  mechanically  applied  in- 
dustrial finishes,  because  no  classical  medium  can 
give  me  the  fine  surface.  Through  this  process  I 
am  eliminating  the  presence  of  the  artist  in  his 
work,  leaving  only  the  idea  and  the  concept  to 
be  experienced  by  the  observer  without  other 
distractions."  (Courtesy  of  Art  in  America,  Vol. 
LIV,  No.  4,  1966,  p.  61.) 

"Beginning  with  the  flat  two-dimensional  sur- 
face of  the  conventional  hard-edge  painting,  I 
extended  and  projected  the  forms,  as  delineated 
by  the  colors,  into  three-dimensional  construc- 
tions. At  first  these  constructions  were  pure  box 
forms.  Later  they  became  more  complex.  In 
contrast  to  ordinary  sculpture  however,  shade 
and  shadows  were  not  important.  In  these  three- 
dimensional  works  I  succeeded  in  achieving  the 
illusion  of  several  pieces  in  one  by  painting  and 
contrasting  forms  on  the  surfaces. 

"I  am  now  seeking  to  liberate  the  various  in- 
dividual sections  of  color  from  the  common  flat 
surface  of  the  painting  and  the  surfaces  of  my 
three-dimensional  constructions.  Lifting  these 
colors  into  space  and  exposing  them  to  the  light 
in  different  angles  introduces  a  new  dimension  in 
my  work.  Projected  thus  into  space  and  freed 
from  their  unchanging  environmental  limitations, 
these  colors  acquire  new  values  which  suggest,  if 
not  dictate,  the  angles  and  the  dimensions  of  the 
basic  forms  which  carry  them.  The  forms,  in 
turn,  vary  the  values  and  intensities  of  the  colors."

William  Coblentz,  San  Francisco.  The  Hansen 
Galleries,  San  Francisco. 

"This  painting  is  one  of  a  series  that  developed 
during  the  course  of  several  years  from  a  more 
traditional  use  of  collage.  Though  most  collage 
material  is  now  overpainted,  certain  attitudes  in- 
herent in  its  use  remain :  emphasis  on  the  physi- 
cal presence  of  the  material  and  an  identity  of 
particular  areas  characterized  by  consistent  color 
or  te.xture  and  the  reinforcing  of  outline.  Con- 
ditioned by  these  attitudes,  sections  of  the  paint- 
ing are  attached  physically  to  one  another  much 
as  though  they  were  sculptural  forms."

Polyurcthane,  84x132.  Royal  Marks  Gallery, 
New  York. 

"My  work  usually  pertains  to  natural  element.s, 
to  moments  and  happenings  as  they  take  place 
in  nature,  to  a  kind  of  life  process.  The  material 
I  use  is  to  some  extent  self-creating;  after  giving 
basic  form  to  the  work,  I  watch  the  surface  flow 
and  allow  it  to  set  as  if  arrested  in  its  own  crea- 
tion. This  combination  of  creating  form  and 
activating  a  sort  of  life  process  over  it  is  mean- 
ingful to  me,  and  I  hope  it  results  in  works  that 
are  meaningful  to  others."

SUNG  AVOO  CHUN,  Mandala  Tradition  #1', 
1964.  Oil  on  canvas,  59  x  44.  Bollcs  Gallery,  San 
Francisco.    (1961,  1963) 

"During  the  last  few  years,  the  Mandala  be- 
came the  most  frequent  subject  for  my  paintings. 

"The  Mandala  is  the  pictorial  bible  of  the 
ancient  Buddhism,  and  it  also  represents  the 
eternal  Universe.  But  most  of  all,  it  symbolizes 
the  state  of  mind  of  an  individual:  the  state  of 
mind  where  one  could  achieve  the  ab.solute  and 
the  eternal  tranquility. 

"It  is  my  belief  that,  while  paintings  are  de- 
veloped, it  produces  a  personalized  atmosphere, 
a  reality  which  exists  primarily  in  the  mind  of 
the  painter,  and  for  this  reason,  I  deeply  believe 
in  the  significance  of  the  Mandala. 

".\nd  it  is  my  belief  that  Mandala  could  best 
be  expressed  through  the  way  of  Nature,  since 
to  synthesize  the  state  of  mind  is  the  root  of 
creativity,  and  as  a  result,  the  painting  would 
have  simplicity  of  forms,  and  also  a  complex 
meaning. 

"Symbolically,  the  nature  simplifies  in  order 
to  express  the  complex  meaning  and  expressions."

ED\VIN  RUDA,  Blake's  Eye  IJ,  1966.  Acrylic 
on  canvas,  84  x  73.  Park  Place  Gallery,  New 
York. 

"The  curtain  hasn't  fallen  on  twentieth-century 
art.  It's  just  that  the  backdrop  is  different.  Some- 
where along  the  line  the  sunset  disappeared  and 
all  I  could  make  out  was  a  set  of  gleaming  teeth 
and  a  bakcd-cnamel  Chrysler  ten  times  the  hu- 
man scale. 

"It's  not  .so  much  a  question  of  which  side 
you're  on.  When  radio  waves  jump  through  your 
head  and  you're  zooming  down  the  freeway, 
choosing  sides  is  pretty  irrelevant. 

"Though  I  sometimes  wonder  if  things  really 
have  changed  much  since  the  days  of  Li  Po. 
Perhaps  it's  only  that  nature  looks  different  now, 
like  molecules  instead  of  leaves. 

"If  you  can  see  through  the  air  pollution  and 
traffic,  chances  are  you  will  find  a  few  diehards 
hanging  on  as  always,  thinking  about  art  all  the 
time  and  making  it  the  best  way  they  know  how." 

Edwin  Ruda  was  born  in  New  York,  New  York, 
in  1922.  He  received  his  B.S.  degree  from  Cornell

ROBERT  A.  NELSON,  Andrew  Jackson  with 
Ray  Gun,  1966.  Oil,  collage,  and  construction  on 
canvas,  64  x  50.   Banfer  Gallery,  Inc.,  New  York. 

"My  work  is  given  over  to  compositions  and 
portraits  which  are  essentially  federal  icons.  Fig- 
ures from  the  broad  .American  past,  but  most 
specifically  the  nineteenth  centur\',  become  the 
trigger  mechanisms  which  dictate  my  oil  and  con- 
struction art  forms.  The  nostalgia  and  the  heroics 
which  cloak  both  good  and  evil  figures  found  in 
the  wash  of  early  Americana  form  the  climate 
from  which  my  work  evolves.  The  images  of 
Washington  and  Lincoln,  .-Xnnie  Oakley  and 
George  .'\rmstrong  Custer,  Billy  the  Kid  and  Sam 
Bass,  Grant  and  Lee,  or  Lindbergh  and  Dillinger 
are  the  foundations  for  shape,  color,  and  organi- 
zation. The  elements  of  space  and  collage,  plexi- 
glas  and  voice  bubble,  line  and  color,  and  the 
monumentality  of  physical  dimensions  are  de- 
vices which  shape  a  suitable  stage  upon  which  the 
figures  of  history,  both  real  and  legendary,  per- 
form. In  some  ways  my  work  is  most  probably 
out  of  context  with  the  grand  modern  movements 
of  the  middle  twentieth  century:  it  may  be  shot 
through  with  the  last  dying  vestiges  of  sur- 
realism, cheap  illustration,  and  the  qualities  of 
calendar  and  tobacco  can  advertisement;  it  may 
be  limited  to  old-fashioned  glaze  techniques  and 
hard-line  drawing;  yet,  it  becomes  a  method  of 
speaking  which  allows  me  to  resurrect  in  solid 
form  the  multi-purposed  ghosts  and  shades  from 
the  main  halls  and  side  cubicles  of  .American  his- 
torical time.  I  am  a  visual  mercenar\-  in  the  pay 
of  the  Cheyenne  chieftains,  of  the  Civ'il  ^Var  foot 
soldiers,  of  the  aviators  who  fought  for  the  skies 
in  the  France  of  1916-18,  and  of  the  great  march 
of  political  leaders  from  the  eve  of  the  American 
Revolution  to  the  middle  years  of  prohibition.  I 
am  satisfied  with  my  imaginative  documentary 
position  —  I  would  trade  it  for  no  other."

WILLIAM  KIENBUSCH,  Winter,  1966.  Casein 
on  board,  29  x  43%.  Kraushaar  Galleries,  New 
York.    (1965) 

"My  picture,  JVinter,  is  just  that,  a  personal 
evocation  of  winter  in  downcast  Maine.  In  fact, 
it  was  not  only  winter,  it  was  a  blizzard.  It  took 
me  an  hour  and  more  to  walk  a  half  mile  to  the 
post  office  and  back  to  my  friends'  house,  and  I 
shall  never  forget  the  total  whiteness,  the  freez- 
ing cold,  and  the  cutting  cruelty  of  the  snow.  In 
recent  years  I  find  myself,  more  and  more,  sacri- 
ficing everything  to  a  lyric  equivalent  of  the 
mood." 

William  Kienbusch  was  born  in  New  York, 
New  York,  in  1914.  He  majored  in  Fine  Arts  at

Students  League  of  New  York,  1936-37.  He 
studied  with  Henry  Varnum  Poor  at  the  Colorado 
Springs  Fine  Arts  Center;  at  Colarossi's  and  with 
Abraham  Rattner  in  Paris;  with  Anton  Refrcgier 
and  Stuart  Davis  in  New  York.  Mr.  Kienbusch 
received  a  John  Simon  Guggenheim  Memorial 
Foundation  fellowship  in  1958.  Presently  he  is 
an  instructor  at  The  Brooklyn  Museum  Art 
School  and  lives  in  New  York,  N.Y. 

Mr.  Kienbusch  has  won  awards  from  The

"My  pictures  are  constructed  from  fragments, 
some  found,  some  prepared.  They  derive  from, 
or  reflect,  a  complex  visual  environment  which 
includes  increasingly  the  documents,  records, 
forms,  indices,  etc.  that  circumscribe  contempo- 
rary life.  I  intend,  without  embarrassment,  the 
images  I  create  to  be  beautiful  things.  The  image 
of  chaos  need  not  itself  be  chaotic."

1966.  Acrylic  on  masonite,  72x48.  Berkeley 
Gallery,  San  Francisco,  and  David  Stuart  Gal- 
leries, Los  Angeles.   ( 1965 ) 

"I  would  like  to  attempt  to  make  a  statement 
about  my  current  work  even  though  I  am  rather 
unskilled  verbally.  Perhaps  some  background 
would  help.  My  first  four  years  of  university 
training  were  spent  studying  art  history.  During 
this  period  I  planned  to  teach  in  the  field,  .^fter 
graduation,  my  wife  and  I  went  to  Europe, 
orienting  our  trip  around  traveling  to  and  view- 
ing the  great  architectural  monuments  of  Western 
Europe.  At  that  time,  floor  plans  seemed  a 
necessary  evil  toward  the  understanding  of  the 
spatial  relationships  and  organization  of  churches. 
It  did  not  occur  to  me  then  that  they  would 
some  day  be  used  as  material  for  paintings.  Some 
seven  years  later,  after  enjoying  painting  in  many 
styles,  I  now  find  my  European  experience,  my 
art  history,  coming  into  the  painting  that  I  am 
doing. 

"I  try  to  transcend  the  blunt  matter-of-fact 
quality  of  the  original  church  diagram.  My  ap- 
proach is  romantic.  1  have  simultaneous  desires 
for  mystery  and  order.  For  me  these  paintings 
are  multi-valued.  The  choice  of  the  church  is 
important.  Either  I  have  been  to  the  church  and 
have  had  some  rich  experience  therein,  or  I  have 
a  fantasy  of  wanting  to  go  there.  Some  of  my 
paintings  are  trips  to  these  places;  some  have  a 
memoir  quality.  Most  often  I  feel  it  necessary 
to  change  the  formal  relationships  of  the  church 
parts.  I  think  of  the  spray  technique  as  a  means 
of  enlarging  the  space  of  the  church,  adding 
light,  even  filling  the  chapels  with  neon  gases  or 
artificial  aromas.  Some  of  the  paintings  are 
mental  landscapes  or  urban  landscapes.  Some 
have  erotic  connotations.  They  always  appear 
anthropomorphic  to  me.  Some  are  just  my  idea 
of  how  a  particular  church  is.  Some  may  be 
machines,  women,  hospitals,  or  formal  gardens. 
It  is  unnecessary  for  the  viewer  to  know  the 
original  church  or  plan  as  that  is  a  different  sort 
of  art  history-."

Acr>lic  on  canvas,  49  x  33.  Arleigh  Gallery,  .San 
Francisco. 

"These  recent  acrylic  paintings  are  expressions 
of  persistent  symbols  derived  from  organic  forms, 
and  particularly  from  human  anatomy.  My  con- 
scious concerns  are  with  myth,  mystery,  and 
magic.  These  concerns  stimulate  the  shapes; 
chance  and  the  unconscious  determine  their  posi- 
tions and  movements."

"If  you  take  Nature  solely  as  a  series  of  con- 
nections, it  falls  naturally  into  a  diagrammatic 
form. 

"In  order  to  begin,  make  a  sketch  of  Nature 
by  translating  it  into  a  'language.'  From  these 
words,  make  a  diagram  of  the  visible  world.  This 
is  part  (A). 

"Part  (B)  consists  of  a  working  diagram  of  the 
invisible  world. 

"Part  (C)  is  a  diagram  to  determine  the  many 
and  varied  connections  between  (A)  and  (B). 

"The  last  and  most  important  connection  is 
that  of  equalitv  (  =  ). 

"Then,   I   hope:     (A)  +  (B)  =  (C)."

"My  position  is  based  on  the  assumption  that 
extended  perception  arises  from  response  to  the 
relatedness  of  experience. 

"The  stark,  voidal  simplicity  of  these  composi- 
tions is  designed  to  create  a  climate  of  uncom- 
promised  freedoin,  beyond  the  insistence  of  the 
particular.  Thus,  the  neutral  structure,  devoid 
of  the  objectivism  of  the  self-cxpressionistic  de- 
vice, indicates  that  cognition  of  the  interdepen- 
dence of  experience  is  essential  to  its  meaning. 

"We  must  agree  that  the  parts  constitute  the 
whole.  Aesthetic  wholeness,  within  the  context 
of  epistemology,  is  intuitive  grasp  of  the  signifi- 
cance of  total  experience." 

John  McLaughlin  was  born  in  Sharon,  Massa- 
chusetts, in  1898.  As  an  artist  he  is  self-taught 
and  since  1946  has  devoted  his  time  to  painting.

Background,  1966.  Oil  with  plexiglas  cast  figure, 
76  X  64  X  4.  Main  Street  Galleries,  Chicago. 
(1965) 

"When  the  demands  of  food  and  shelter  are  no 
longer  a  pressing  need,  and  the  static  of  Everyday 
is  cleared,  Man  is  left  with  himself.  Faced  with 
the  oppressive  reality  of  his  own  fallibility,  his 
own  mortality,  and  the  absolute  isolation  in  which 
he  must  endure  them,  he  can  flee  into  dogma, 
habit,  insanity,  or  physical  suicide;  or  he  may 
choose  to  live  his  life  in  defiance  of  fate. 

"To  live  that  life  of  defiance  and  to  bridge  that 
terrible  isolation  by  giving  form  and  dimension  to 
the  universality  of  Man's  experience  is  the  part  of 
the  artist.  He  must  express,  in  whatever  medium 
he  is  most  skilled,  what  it  is  to  be  a  human  being. 
The  hope  is  that  others  might  be  enriched  by  this 
common  bond  just  as  he  was  by  the  work  of 
those  artists  who  preceded  him. 

"I  make  pictures.  These  pictures,  when  success- 
ful, contain  a  sense  of  order,  of  independence  — 
and  some  highly  arbitrary  reflections  of  this  par- 
ticular point  in  history.  I  feel  that  the  method  by 
which  I  make  these  pictures  is  of  little  impor- 
tance; that  the  picture,  once  finished,  must  speak 
for  itself." 

Roy  Schnackenberg  was  born  in  Chicago,  Illi- 
nois, in  1934.  He  attended  Miami  University, 
Oxford,  Ohio,  where  he  received  a  B.F..'\.  degree

Street  Galleries,  Chicago. 

"Does  the  artist  paint  a  picture  of  the  chaos 
in  the  world  around  him  or  docs  he  herald  the 
possible  destruction  of  the  world  to  come  or  does 
he  express  his  own  innermost  self?  Probably  all 
three.  But  ni)'  world,  though  it  may  be  wishful, 
is  an  orderly  world  and  while  the  inventions  of 
the  twentieth  century  inay  have  brought  about 
destruction  and  chaos,  they  have  also  made  pos- 
sible the  use  of  machinery  and  the  development 
of  synthetic  materials. 

"These  materials  have  a  fascination  for  me  and 
because  their  nature  demands  the  use  of  geo- 
metric forms  they  satisfy  my  own  need  for  order 
and  serenity.  Whether  this  is  blindness  or  proph- 
ecy, only  a  distant  future  can  tell." 

Lillian  Florsheim  was  born  in  New  Orleans, 
Louisiana.  She  studied  painting  with  Henry 
Hensche,  Provincetown,  1946-47;  Rudolph 
W'eisenborn,  Chicago,  1948-50;  and  with  George 
Buehr,  Chicago,  1948-54.  In  1951  she  studied 
sculpture  at  the  Institute  of  Design,  Illinois  In- 
stitute of  Technology,  Chicago.  Miss  Florsheim 
lives  in  Chicago,  Illinois. 

A  special  exhibition  of  Miss  Florsheim's  work 
was  held  at  the  Main  Street  Galleries,  Chicago,

Unique  Bronze,  14".  Felix  Landau  Gallery,  Los 
Angeles.    (1955,  1965) 

'"I  am  obsessed  with  the  struggle  both  for  and 
against  time,  and  so  am  concerned  with  the  en- 
during quality  of  certain  formal  ideas  and  the 
permanence  of  the  most  traditional  sculptural 
media.  Not  paradoxically,  the  same  concern  has 
invoK'ed  my  work  with  the  body  of  m)th  which 
deals  with  the  changing  of  form  and  with  the 
form  of  myth  which  changes  according  to  the 
needs  of  the  culture  in  which  it  finds  itself 
recognized." 

Richard  Boyce  was  born  in  New  York,  New 
York,  in  1920.  He  studied  painting  at  The  School

GRACE  HARTIGAN,  Mistral.  1964.  Oil  on 
canvas,  60  x  68,  Martha  Jackson  Gallciv,  New 
York.    (1963) 

"I  have  become  increasingly  aware  of  what  1 
must  do.  Gide  said  an  artist  should  want  only 
one  thing  and  want  it  constantly.  I  want  an  art 
that  is  not  'abstract'  and  not  'realistic'  I  cannot 
describe  the  look  of  this  art,  but  I  think  I  will 
know  it  when  I  see  it. 

"I  have  found  my  'subject';  it  concerns  that 
which  is  vulgar  and  vital  in  American  modern 
life,  and  the  possibilities  of  its  transcendence  into 
the  beautiful.  I  do  not  wish  to  describe  my 
subject  matter  or  to  reflect  upon  it.  I  want  to 
distill  it  until  I  have  its  essence,  then  the  rawness 
must  be  resolved  into  form  and  unity;  without 
the  'rage  for  order'  how  can  there  be  art?" 

Grace  Hartigan  was  born  in  Newark,  New 
Jersey,  in  1922.  She  studied  in  New  York  with 
Isaac  Lane  Muse,  and  has  traveled  in  Europe

lic on  shaped  canvas,  67  x  60  x  9.  Richard  Feigen 
Galler}-,  New  York  &  Chicago. 

"Part  of  the  goal  is  to  reduce  expression  to  the 
most  essential  terms.  The  further  the  reduction, 
the  fewer  the  decisions,  the  more  important  each 
one  is  relative  to  the  other. 

".Another  part  of  the  goal  is  that  style  be  broad 
enough  to  include  all  of  one's  artistic  interests. 

"My  painting  begins  with  an  idea  of  how  the 
object  may  be  constructed  and  the  notion  that 
the  structure  can  be  beautiful  in  itself. 

"Particularly  important  is  the  taut  membrane- 
like quality  of  the  stretched  canvas,  and  that  the 
can\as  partially  hides  the  structure.  The  screen 
of  the  convoluted  surface  of  the  painting  suggests 
a  special  relationship  not  easily  defined  in  terms 
of  geometr\'."  (Courtesy  of  Art  in  America,  Vol. 
LIV,  No.  4,  1966,  p.  36.)

MAX  FINKELSTEIN,  Square  Plus  200,  1966. 
Aluminum  construction,  34'/4  x  36  x  2.  Herbert 
Palmer  Gallery,  Los  Angeles. 

"The  esthetics  of  precision  is  part  of  my  way. 
I  like  to  take  'cold'  metals  like  aluminum  and 
make  a  thing  of  warmth  and  beauty.  My  forms 
are  part  of  the  times.  The  computer,  sophisti- 
cated machinery,  automation,  etc.,  suggest  the 
work.  I  prefer  sculpture  to  painting  because,  for 
me,  it  is  closer  to  modem  technolog)'  and  more 
enduring. 

"I  have  worked  with  metals  for  many  years, 
mostly  as  a  machinist  from  blue  prints.  The  idea 
of  working  with  metal,  unrestricted  and  indepen- 
dently as  an  artist,  is  the  basis  of  my  art  interest. 

"I  am  looking  for  an  essential  pure  image  that 
is  obviously  derived  from  modern  materials  and 
applications. 

"To  me  aluminum  has  almost  all  the  proper- 
ties that  epitomize  our  times;  it  has  the  poetry 
of  space,  the  computer,  the  new  industr)-  and 
mass  product.  My  work  is  not  a  multiple  pro- 
duction, though  it  has  many  similar  parts.  It  is 
not  mass-produced,  though  it  is  mass-derived.  It 
is  intuitive  development  of  unitized  images. 

"I  use  a  module  in  common  « ith  industry  — 
squares,  rectangles,  hexagons,  and  circles,  and 
the  negative  remaining  space. 

"Each  unit  of  construction  is  carefully  ma- 
chined with  a  surface  of  my  own  design.  The 
rea.sons  for  this,  aside  from  fascinating  textur- 
ologies,  are  that  these  machined  surfaces  refract 
light,  'project'  colors  and  add  a  dynamic  dimen- 
sion. Also  machining  the  surfaces  of  the  com- 
ponent units  gives  me  an  infinite  number  of 
combinations  and  possibilities  that  would  not  be 
attainable  with  simply  cut  reflective  areas."

ation. 1966.  Oil  on  canvas,  36x50.  Martha 
Jackson  Gallery,  New  York.    (1959,  1961,  1965) 

"Candle  lisht,  sunlight,  these  shaped  the  direc- 
tion in  which  the  accustomed  eye  saw  its  reality 
and  created  an  illusion  of  sculptural  dimension. 
And  now.  We  see  and  perceive  differently,  even 
though  we  may  continue  to  be  accustomed  in 
our  mind's  eye  to  see  as  they  saw.  Our  light 
world  is  caught  in  refraction,  interpcnetration. 
.Sometimes  wc  really  wonder  if  we  are  seeing 
what  we  are.  We  perceive  the  .swift  familiar 
shifting  and  changing  before  our  eyes  in  the 
motion  of  our  time  and  this  is  our  inscrutable. 
We  do  not  see  all  there  is  to  see  rather  what  we 
can  perceive.  We  also  move  through  tempera- 
ture zones  that  contrast  as  violently  and  subtly  as 
the  areas  of  unnatural  light,  with  their  own 
silences,  their  own  sounds  which  bathe  us  as  we 
are  caught  in  llieir  multiple  reflections.  We  are 
caught  up  in  ambiguity  —  the  adventure  being 
to  distinguish  the  real  universe  of  ourselves  from 
the  other  one  we  reel  through;  the  chasms  of 
light  outside  ourselv-es  which  catch  our  own  inner 
light  projecting  from  us  in  forms  unseen,  pres- 
ences, radiations,  invisible  but  felt  gestures. 
Goethe,  with  all  his  awareness,  as  he  said  it, 
when  speaking  about  the  unfathomable  before 
which  he  too  resigns  himself  is  yet  revealed  to 
him  in  the  world  of  phenomena,  not  the  absolute 
itself,  but  the  mirrored  reflection  of  its  majestic 
remoteness."  (Extract  from  /(  h,  New  York,

"My  unusual  use  of  nails  and  wood  is  not  the 
result  of  any  particular  effort  to  be  different  or 
unique.  It  is  rather  the  natural  outgrowth  of  my 
previous  experience  in  the  carpentry  trade,  where 
I  gained  facility  in  handling  the  materials.  I 
also  learned  to  respect  these  humble  materials  for 
their  honest,  simple,  yet  powerful  qualities.  I 
feel  that  as  an  artist  I  should  use  these  materials 
in  a  way  that  will  enhance  their  qualities. 

"I  am  not  trying  to  communicate  any  precon- 
ceived thought  or  feeling.  I  want  my  work  to 
reveal  in  itself  certain  basic  principles  of  honesty 
and  integrity  —  to  me  the  foundation  of  all 
fine  art."

FRANK  GALLO,  Love  Object,  1966.  Epoxy 
resin  reinforced  with  fiber  glass  and  wood,  57  x  28. 
Lent  by  Mr.  Frank  Gallo,  Urbana,  Illinois.  Gil- 
man  Galleries,  Chicago.    (1965) 

"I  don't  believe  in  art;  I  am  not  even 
interested  in  art.  I  keep  my  work  free  of  esthetic 
judgments.  For  me,  postures  of  the  human  figure 
are  potentially  expressive.  There  is  so  much 
concerning  the  figure  that  is  heretofore  unex- 
amined, unfelt,  and  unimagined.  Perhaps  it 
seems  mundane  to  most  artists,  but  to  me,  a 
celebration  of  the  ordinary,  a  passion  for  the 
commonplace  or  subtleties  of  the  incidental  are 
grave  concerns.  There  arc  no  noble  subjects.  If 
I  were  to  do  a  figure  of  Jesus,  I  would  probably 
see  him  as  Nikos  Kazantzakis  did,  first  as  a  timid 
epileptic. 

'T  recognize  that  art  is  residual,  noncultural 
and  nonvital.  If  art  is  ever  to  be  vital  again,  it 
will  have  to  be  as  a  diflferent  form  with  a  dif- 
ferent name,  unknown  to  the  artists."  (Courtesy

canvas,  48  x  60.  Gordon  Woodside  Gallery,  San 
Francisco. 

"Two  Figuration  talks  about  my  interest  in 
girlie  pictures,  both  the  two-bit  peep  show  variety 
as  seen  in  amusement  emporiums  and  the  kind 
that  I  dig  in  paintings  such  as  Courbet,  Picasso, 
etc.  The  planes  running  in  opposition  to  the 
canvas  rectangle  give  it  a  movie  screen  effect  as 
do  the  colors  employed.  I  enjoyed  making  this 
painting  and  now  enjoy  looking  at  it."

SAMUEL  M.  ADLER,  Construction  with  5 
Figures,  1966.  Wood  and  oil,  40  x  78  x  4%.  Lent 
by  Mr.  Samuel  M.  Adler,  New  York.  (1950, 
1951,  1952,  1953,  1955,  1957,  1959,  1961,  1963, 
1965) 

"For  years  I  had  loyed  with  the  idea  of  try- 
ing my  hand  at  sculpture,  but  my  involvement 
with  paintings  and  collage  made  it  difficult  for 
me  to  tear  myself  away  for  a  new  and  untried 
venture  —  lack  of  courage,  too,  may  have  played 
a  part. 

"After  my  last  collage  show,  however,  the  idea 
really  took  hold  —  it  seemed  a  logical  step  for- 
ward, and  I  took  the  plunge. 

"It  proved  a  difficult  and  completely  fasci- 
nating challenge  and  I  set  about  perfecting  the 
necessary  technique. 

"My  piece  Construction  with  5  Figures  is  but 
one  of  a  number  now  ready  for  exhibition  and  I 
can  only  hope  that  I  have  added  somewhat  to 
the  general  dimension  of  my  former  work." 

Samuel  Adler  was  born  in  New  York,  New 
York,  in  1898.  He  was  admitted  to  the  National 
Academy  of  Design  by  special  dispensation  at

to  both  music  and  painting,  supporting  himself 
as  a  violinist  until  1927  when  he  turned  to  paint- 
ing as  a  full-time  profession.  Mr.  Adler  taught 
drawing  and  painting  privately  from  1936  to 
1950.  He  was  Visiting  Professor  of  Art  at  the

Visiting  Professor  of  Art  and  Associate  Member 
of  the  Center  for  Advanced  Study,  University  of 
Illinois,  Urbana,  1964.  In  1965  as  the  Artist 
in  Residence  at  the  University  of  Notre  Dame, 
Indiana,  he  received  a  Ford  Foundation  grant.

W.  LEE  SAVAGE,  Automobile,  1966.  Oil  on  can- 
vas, 60  X  60.    Krasner  Gallery,  New  York. 

"Most  of  the  time  during  the  past  seven  years 
I  have  labored  fairly  happily  in  the  soap  pits  of 
Madison  Avenue  to  pay  for  the  privacy  of  my 
picture  making.  In  that  seven  years  I  was  able 
to  isolate  in  my  paintings  some  of  the  inklings 
that  were  inside  me  and  to  make  explicit  to 
myself  (and  to  some  others)  what  my  entrails 
were  capable  of.  I  had  freed  myself  somewhat 
from  an  external  authority  and  was  able  to 
grapple  with  some  of  the  responsible  internal 
absurdities  that  make  painting  worthwhile. 
Whether  the  paintings  themselves  are  in  fashion 
or  out  of  fashion,  I  found  out,  is  completely 
beside  the  point.  I  found  out  also  that  the 
critical  authority  is  a  happy  bunch  of  flies  kick- 
ing around  in  an  aesthetic  marmalade  and  that 
posterity  can  sometimes  be  a  liar.  I  realized  that 
what  once  had  been  in  me  an  enormous  responsi- 
bility to  -BE  A  PAINTER"  had  changed  in  that 
seven  years  to  an  inward  responsibility  to  simply 
paint  my  own  pictures.  The  pictures  improved; 
the  absurdities  were  my  own.  I  had  found  at 
least  some  of  my  responsibilities. 

"I  paint  for  the  same  reason  I  splash  in  the 
bathtub.  Like  splashing  you  don't  have  to  do  it 
if  you  don't  want  to;  nobody  asked  you  to  paint. 
You  just  do,  knowing  that  the  only  thing  that 
is  important  is  that  which  is  inherent  in  the 
painting  itself.  The  artist  has  the  moral  cre- 
ative responsibility  to  make  the  painting  that  he 
is  presently  working  on  be  the  greatest  picture 
that  has  ever  been  painted.  The  struggle  is  in- 
ternal. Grappling  creatively  with  externals  is 
commercial  art  (or  bad  art).  Commercial  art 
is  only  the  choice  of  solution;   the  solving  of  a 


given  external  problem.  Fine  art  is  the  choice 
of  problem  AND  the  choice  of  solution.  The 
artist  must  isolate  the  problem  from  an  infinity 
of  problems  and  then  solve  it  from  an  infinity 
of  solutions.  The  problem  he  isolates  is  his  re- 
sponsibility (and  his  style)  and  the  solution  of 
that  problem  is  his  art.  The  absurdity  of  art  is 
that  it  is  worthless,  i.e.,  priceless.  I  am  committed 
to  my  responsibilities  and  involved  with  its  ab- 
surdities. .  .  ."

ler)', Los  Angeles. 

"Sunday  afternoons,  first  by  myself,  later  with 
Lilo  Raymond,  a  photographer  friend,  I  explored 
the  empty  streets  of  South  Broadway  from  14th 
Street  to  the  Battery.  I  was  very  moved  by  the 
mysterious  beauty  and  sense  of  presence  that  these 
1870-90's  loft  buildings  have.  This  led  to  a  photo- 
graphic essay  as  'sketches"  for  an  architectural 
series  of  paintings. 

"The  frontality  and  symmetry  of  the  images, 
and  the  fact  that  they  are  pressed  so  close  to  the 
picture  plane,  give  the  paintings  an  iconic  quality. 
This  explains  to  a  great  extent  their  stability, 
poise,  and  presence. 

"Like  bas-relief  sculpture  or  like  certain  Ren- 
aissance sculpture  designed  to  be  seen  in  niches, 
my  images  imply  depth  but  remain  strongly  two- 
dimensional.  One  feels  that  true  depth  exists 
behind  these  paintings  —  possibly  in  front  —  bul 
if  these  forms  were  viewed  from  the  side  they 
would  evaporate.   Any  .sense  of  spaciousness  must 


certainly  be  derived  from  the  image  itself."

1966,  p.  47.)

"Any  statement  about  my  work  at  this  time 
would  be  in  the  nature  of  a  non-statement.  I  am 
more  e.xcited  about  kinetics  than  anything  Lve 
done.  I  feel  that  we  are  at  the  beginning  of 
something  that  is  going  to  be  tremendous.  Where 
it  will  go  I  don"t  know,  but  I  do  know  that  as  I 
make  more  discoveries  of  relationships  between 
form,  motion  and  color  my  excitement  intensifies. 
Right  now  I  have  plans  for  doing  a  kinetic  wall 
to  be  activated  and  viewed  from  both  sides."

DEBORAH  REMINGTON,  Canyon,  1964.  Oil 
on  canvas,  49  x  44',2.    Bykert  Gallery,  New  York. 

"I  do  not  approach  my  work  with  any  com- 
plete structural  preconceptions,  but  believe  in 
allowing  each  painting  to  develop  and  adjust  as 
I  work.  Still,  I  find  the  forms  I  invent  con- 
tinually reflected  in  the  external  world,  and  must 
believe  that  the  opposition  and  attraction  im- 
plicit between  them  mirror  something  which  per- 
vades all  life,  artistic,  biological,  and  intellectual. 
It  is  the  tension  between  male  and  female,  be- 
tween order  and  chance,  between  dissonance  and

NIC  SMITH,  Albiitro.u  II,  1966.  Acrylic  aiitl  oil 
pastel  on  canvas,  68x65',.'.  Comara  Ciallcry,  Los 
.\ngelcs. 

"If  the  paintings  of  my  youth  can  fairly  be  said 
to  reveal  an  awareness  of  becoming,  then  it  may 
be  no  less  fair  to  note  that  it  now  seems  necessary 
to  express  an  awareness  of  being. 

"Like  a  gyroscope,  twentieth-century  art  has 
increasingly  turned  upon  itself.  And,  like  a 
gyroscope,  inward  momentum  may  produce  an 
appearance  of  arrest.  Vet  the  exclusively  visual 
problems  of  "pure  painting,"  'art  as  art,'  or  the 
attempt  to  determine  'the  irreducible  essence  of 
pictorial  art'  seem  ultimately  academic.  Even  the 
gyroscope  undergoes  friction  and  eventual  col- 
lapse. .'\rt  conceived  as  an  expression  of  art 
will  in  the  long  run  severely  limit  art  as  an  ex- 
prcssiiHi  (if  human  consciousness. 

"Rilke,  in  the  Duino  Elegies,  spoke  of  his  angels 
as  'being,  nothing  but  being,  a  superabundance 
of  being.'  But  the  danger  is  always  one  of  getting 
trapped  into  making  pictures  in  which  there  are 
no  mo\'ing  ]5arts  to  go  v\rong  —  the  danger  of 
getting  seduced  too  easily  and  too  quickly  by  the 
beckoning  silence  of  a  transcendental  dead  end. 
To  avoid  this  trap  the  mind  must,  in  a  way,  cease 
to  create,  and  the  self-conscious  'T  must  quietly 
disappear.  Thus  the  act  of  painting  is  not  so 
nmch  a  voyage  as  a  meditation,  an  attempt  to 
slow  the  mind  down  in  order  to  watch  it  work. 

"Baudelaire  was  moved  by  the  spaciousness  of 
the  .sea  to  write:  'What  a  delight  to  drown  one's 
gaze  in  the  immensity  of  the  sky  and  sea  ...  all 
those  things  think  through  me,  or  I  think  through 
them,  for  in  the  vastness  of  revery,  the  I  quickly 
loses   itself.'     Perhaps   at    this   stage   there   is   no 


real  dichotomy  between  the  still  timelcs-sness  of 
being  and  the  daily  conllicts  of  becoming.  Here 
the  artist  no  longer  creates  but  is  created,  and 
artist  and  canvas  are  one. 

"Nevertheless,  I  must  finally  agree  with  Susan 
.Sontag  when  she  .said  recently,  'interpretation  is 
the  revenge  of  the  intellect  upon  art.  .  .  .  Even 
more  it  is  the  revenge  of  the  intellc(  t  upon  the 
world.  To  interpret  is  to  impoverish,  to  deplete 
the  world  —  in  order  to  set  up  a  shadow  world  of 
tneaninn,'  "

Wood,  niasoiiitc,  fabric,  and  dope,  40  x  60  x  52. 
Royal  Marks  Gallcn',  New  York. 

■"Coupled  with  the  sculptors  suspicion  that 
society  regards  him  either  as  a  menace  or  an 
idiot  is  the  artists  growing  understanding  that 
M)ciety  in  fact  regards  him  as  a  "natural  enemy' 
whose  pursuit  of  values,  whicli  appear  to  be 
individual  rather  than  collective,  places  him  out- 
side the  social  entity,  and  therefore  he  is  not 
eligible  for  its  reward  of  serious  concern.  Recip- 
procally,  the  sculptor  recognizes  his  estrangement 
and  burrows  deeper  into  his  work;  it  becomes 
more  depersonalized,  more  calculated,  more  dif- 
ficult, more  covertly  critical,  and  more  unmindful 
of  earlier  art.  .And,  the  alienation  of  the  artist 
becomes  more  explicit. 

'".Actually,  many  of  us  prefer  it  that  way!" 
fCourtesv  of  Arl  in  America,  Vol.  LI\',  No.  4, 
1966,  p.  52.)
