e. S. ART EXHIBIT.
Space Secured at Paris Exposition is
Insufficient

New York. Nay John B. Caldwell,
director of fine arts. United States COM
mission to the Paris exposition, has is
sued a circular describing the plans for
the American art exhibit at the exposi-
ton. The line assigned to the United
States fine art section aggregates about
$50 feet This space will permit the
hanging of only about 200 to $50 oil
paintings and a limited number of water
cOlOrs and drawings. The space allotted
is smaller than was assigned at the
Paris exposition of 1889, although the
work of American artists today is much
better known. 1t has been decided to
form an advisory committee of men
identified with American art interests
in the United States who will represent
the various sections of the United States
and who will have general oversight of
the interests of the department in their
respective sections.
At = later date juries of selection will
There will probably be two of these
juries in the United States, an eastern
and a western jury. to be convened re-
Spectively in New York and Chicago. A
similar jury will be created in Paris.
The Paris jury will have representatives
from London and probably from other
art centerS- There will be two juries for
SculptorS, one in the United States and
the other in Paris. A general circular
will be issued in September, announcing
the appointment of the juries of the Sc
lection in the United States It is prob
able that the juries in the United States
will meet in November. The jury in
Paris will meet at a later date.
