MRS. PHILIP H. DODGE LECTURES
ON ORIENTAL ART
Mrs. Philip II. Dodge, for years
resident of Japan and one who has
studied deeply In japanese art and
appreciates its beauty and symbolism,
lectured on Thursday evening at the
Kilohana Art League club rooms,
Beretania street, before a good-sized
audience thoroughly interested in her
subject.
The lecture, which was something
more than half an hour in length,
succeeded in giving Mrs. Dodges
hearers foundation for understand
ing criticism of some phases OF the
art OF the mikado's empire. She told
how Kakuzo Okakara, the leading au-
thority upon Oriental art up to the
time of his death not long ago, said
There is no truth unrelated to the
unity of things" and Rodin, who is
recognized as one of the worlds great
est sculptors, says: There Is really
neither beauty of style, nor beauty OF
drawing, nor beauty of color, there Is
haf zrf q
that Is revealed" s
Using these statements in support
of her position, Mrs. Dodge worked
out the conclusion In her lecture that
Oriental art bears world-message.
For surely, she affirmed, the world
West and East alike-needs to
harken to the message of unity-the
Divine birthright of sonship and
brotherhood And it is this message
the "At-one-ment." THE sublime in
tention of oneness" that underlies this
art, uniting 1t as the cord unites the
beads of rosary. III. .. 2.
In evidence of her claim, Mrs.
Dodge made the pictures tell their
own story The at-one-ment is exem-
plified in the temples for instance
by the harmony that exists between
them and their surroundings-for just
as the temple holds or entwines the
materialized dream of the artist
priest so does the landscape enshrine
the temple and all form part of Sc
quence that sometime, somewhere,
somehow will know itself to be en-
shrined by the absolute --:rs Fl.
Mrs. Dodge aimed to show further
that while the mystical, subconsci-
Gus, instructive claim of oneness in
spired by Eastern religions evolves
prominently the right attitude to-
ward art, it needs the positive, unob-
scured, unparalleled teachings and
example of the Founder of Christian
ity to objectify ito make it The
Factor in the life of the nation as in
thath of the individual" " .>=
