The Ideas of the Secession
And of the Academy
By Royal Cortissoz

The recent announcement of new
orsAnisation of artists, having its
or;vju in dissatisfaction with the poll
IAN of the Academy of Design, in
.tSntly brought back memories of the
t.sious secession of 1877. 1t was in
~ year that the Society of American
et+sists was founded, to give the
voHnger, more progressive painters a
.sance for the exhibition of their
xorks which the Academy was 10th to
rant. The new body functoned ad-
nirably for years. Then its shows
hogan to look more and more like the
shows of the Academy, and in 1906
The secessionists came formally back
into the fold. All the members of the
Society became members of the Acad-
envy and the present writer recalls
the dinner at which the pact was
sealed as an occasion on which every
body concerned was entirely content.
Ie.was love feast if ever there was
one. Are we to witness by and by
similar swinging of the pendulum?
there is passage in one of Matthew
Arnold's ESSAYS which is not inapposite.
Missing over the prodigious richness
u Catholic literature in the British
Museum he speaks of the extraordi-
nary powers it implies. In spite of her
tendency to burn him, he says, the
man Of imagination will always be
Yeturning to the bosom of the Church
Of Rome. Well, the man of magma
tion is sometimes magnihcently reso-
lutte in his abstention from the Acad-
envy, but, on the other hand, as the
Incident Of the Society OF American
Artists shows, the Academy has a way
Of lasting, the secession has a way of
reverting to old paths. We shall see
what happens in this new case-and
in the mean time it is to be remem-
bered that it took nearly thirty wears
for the old society to renew its first
allegiance.

The New Group of Painters.
Sculptors and Gravers

The most promising element in the
situation is the evident good humor
prevailing on both sides. Last winter
and in the spring, when there was a
good deal of talk about dissension with
in the membership of the Academy, it
appeared to the onlooker as though a
certain amount of bad blood was newt
able. The arguments over the reforma-
ton OF the Academy's jury system had
some lll-soundng echoes Now these
have been silenced. Mr.. Watrous, the
secretary of the Academy, was quoted
IN The Tribune last Thursday as saying
There is plenty of room for both or
ganlzatons. Speaking for the Academy,
am sure we wish the newly formed
society good luck" And from the new
society, the "American Painters, Sculp-
tors and' Gravers," we have received
his statement:
1t has always been said Of every new
society OF artists that it was formed to
combat the Academy will be said OF
this society-but this society was formed.
as every new society generally has been
formed. without taking the National
Academy of Design into consideration at
all. 1t Is neither a radical nor a con-
.eryatise society. 1t is an entirely in
dependent society Of artists VINO have felt

little charm. If he has been stirred
by the glorious beauty of his cloudland
he has not interpreted il in terms of
design and color in their turn beauti-
tul. But Of the authenticity of his
backgrounds. blue sky and billowing
clouds, there can be no question. In
the quality of illusion these pictures
are mastery. We feel that they muss
