MAESTROVIC COMING.
Great serbian sculptor to Attens
TITS Exhibition Here.

Not only has The exhibition In America
Of the work OF the great Serbian sculp-
tor, Ivan Mestrovic. been al for
hut Mestrovic himself Is to come to this
country. According to Miss Catherine
y. Groth. who ~ directing the enterprise.
the Crown Prince Alexander OF Serbia
cabled yesterday his Willingness to act
as chief patron at the exhibition OF the
works OF his friend"
The exhibition. which Is scheduled for
some time In March. will be ttcnded no
doubt. with great difficulties. for most
Of M~cstrovic's sculptures are huge In
size.
It is this that has heretofore made
ali the New York managers balk at the
idea OF undertaking the show. for IL has
seemed impossible to get such great
stone sculptures across the ocean In war
time, especially In view OF the insurance
rates. =.
Ever since the Serbian sculptor set all
London agog with his astonishing carv-
ings our New York experts have seen
In Mestrovic n chance to create a gem
art sensation here. 1t has re-
NAMED for a ma however. to dis
play the business courage necessary for
the enterprise. II Miss Groth docs ac-
tually succeed in getting Mestrovic's art
to his country there can he no doubt
whatever that The great success that the
Serbian has obtained In Europe Will be
repeated here.
Mestrovic has been declared by the
leading critics Of the old world TO he one
Of the most original geniuses OF the
time. The London Times said he be
longs to the race Of giants In art; he
has something OF the terribilita Of
Michael Angelo: he thinks In stone ant
attacks his material with furious en-
ergy."
Rodin, the French master. is another
who has givens Mestrovic the most gen
erous acclaim.
