BITTER WA9

ARTISTS
Paris Art Center Is Torn
With Dissension Between
New and Old.
RADICAL GROUPS GET
GREATEST NOTORIETY

Paris, France. Nov Am artistic
struggle being waged in France has be-
come even more bitter since the open
ing OF the autumn salon. Not only are
the painters fighting among themselves,
but also the critics, and to a certain eX-
tent, the public.
Unlike the spring salon, the autumn
exhibition Of the fine arts is always
more or less controversial by the very
nature Of its contributions.
Of the SO American artists repre-
Sented-l5 of whom are WOmen-prac-
tlcally none comes under the more Sc

Of the South Americans, of whom there
are perhaps half that number several
partake a little of the extremely radical
variety. But even their products do
not justify the inclusion Of the western
hemisphere in the region denoted by
the critics as of the outer darkness OF
barbarism."
Out of more than $50 artists exhibit
ing, perhaps 80 fall within the terms Of
the Censorship. The fact remains, how
ever, that public curiosity at the works
Of the 80 has drawn more patronage
than any legitimate interest in the Gre
atoms Of the remaining $50.
More Exciting Than Last Year.
This year the presence Of an unusual
" large number Of works by three
leading modern radical camps-pOst i'm
pressioniSts, cubists, and futurists-has
made the event even more exciting than
it was last year. As a matter Of fact.

of painting or sculpture exposed are

been hailed as the head and front of all
their manifestations, as well as to the
radical tradition in painting which ran
down through the late years Of the 18Th
century in France and which boosted as
its champions men now recognized as
the most notable creators OF their
period. Only a few years ago say the
radicals. Japanese prints looked just as
queer as cubist works do now.

It is difficult to describe how the new
works look, unless it suffice to say that
whereas the Ost-impressiOnists paint
figures and landscapes with characters
which remind one Of the drawings in
q textbook Of plane geometry, the
cubists recall solid geometry, and the
futurists the sort of angular, smashed
