THE ART GALLERY.
The art gallery at the Pavilion has, all this
week, been thronged by spectators. And it is
but Justice to record that the great mass of
icism and pronounced judgments an artistic
sense and a taste which speaks volumes for
popular art culture, aud the progress which
is being made by true art among the people.
It's plainly evident that the artists OF this State
and the art collection institutes have entered
upon the right path in this matter Of more
frequent and free public exhibits of art works.
The result has been an elevation OF the public
taste, cultivation of the natural love for the
II "A INT. ,f
art by thousands who, but for the awakening
induced by such exhibitions as that
nov in the art gallery, would never
! have risen to consideration OF
art matters at all. In 1879 the first
real art exhibition under the direction of ex-
psrienced art directors took place in connec-
ton with the annual expositions of the State
Agricultural Society. The success of that
exhibition, the popular appreciation with
which it met, induced its repetition this year.
The gallery is temporary, and includes the
west balcony of the Pavilion, which iscovered
in and admirably arranged for the purposes
intended The exhibition is under the d.
rection of j. r Martin, Asst stant Secretary
Of San Francisco Art Association and School
of Design. The pictures were nearly all hung
under his direction, and he has, by authority
of the State Board of Agriculture, general
charge Of the exhibition. The exhibits were
secured by the society appropriating the sum
of 5000 to be distributed among the ex-
hibitors according to a plan which
abolishes the first and second premium p"
idea, which, when applied to art work Ia
simply farcial in State Fair, and instead of
that plan provides for such an equitable dis
tribution OF the money, according to merit of
exhibit, as shall compensate the artists, at
least in part, for making the exhibits, and
thus eliminates the Objectionable feature that
heretofore was prominent, to Wit, that one
artist was superior to another, or his work
better or worse than another, because Of the
amount OF money awarded as premium,
according to the judgment of any committee
that directory might hastily pick up. Most
Of the pictures were solicited from artists or
owners by Mr.. Martin, and are from private
studios and the Art Association rooms at San
Francisco.
