PRIVATE VIEW OF
VAN SOLEN'S PICTURES.

Mrs. Robert DletZ VIII receive on
Monday. April 10. and Tuesday,
April 20. at the Woman's Club,
from 8 till 6 o'clock, when a group
of pictures by Theodore Van Solen
will be shown in private view,
Through a mistake this exhibition
was announced last week for May
instead of April The exhibition
includes portraits Of two members
of Mrs. Dietz' family, a charcoal
of Mr.. Dietz an oil of Garry, their
little son, and several larger can
vases painted in and around AL
buquerque.
Mr.. Van Solen first studied art in
st. Paul, Mimi, where he was
brought up. He then went to the
Pennsylvania Academy of Fine
Arts, where he spent four years,
being sent twice by the Academy
to Europe on scholarships. once in
1918, and again in 1914. He has
STUDIED under such noted instruc-
tors as j. Alden Weir. Cecilia
Beaux, the celebrated child painter,
Daniel CARRIER, Emil Carlson. Thos.
.Anschutz and others. On his re-
turn from Europe he Joined the
New Hope group in the Delaware
Valley and won the Charles Top
pen prize of the Pennsylvania
Academy of Fine Arts in 1915. and
also a number of smaller medals
land prizes. In 1916 this talented
young artist, who had already at
tracted a good deal of favorable
attention in the art world, sold a
picture from the annual exhibit TO
the Pennsylvania Academy. He
then came West for his health. and
did not paint for some time, but
has. during the past two or three
years. worked steadily in the Vi
cinity of Albuquerque, producing
some very beautiful work.
1t will be remembered by those
who saw the Taos Art Exhibit in
the Spring that Mr.. Van Solen eN-
hibited two new canvasses at the
same time. One of these was sold
on the day that it was hung. A
gift for portraiture has caused Mr..
Van Solen to be much sought after
for likenesses. He is at present
doing a number here. and may re-
turn to the South to complete some
torders left from last year. this
summer,

herself. Miss Ernestine Huning, in
a striking little costume of red and
black, red bodice and black tulle
ballet skirts, did a quick, pretty fan
dance, which was most effective.
Mrs Knight then gave her witch's
dance in a remarkably clever cos
tune, with black and white tat
tered skirts and a huge and awful
Witch's hat lawful means awe in
spring here). The variety of steps
of this accomplished danseuse was
shown admirably in this interpreted
ton, and she electrified the house
by turning two complete and per-
feet cart wheels across the stage,
ending in what is known as the
splits, which, when gracefully
done, simply furnishes another in
tereSting if difficult figure. from
which the dancer rose to her toes
with the grace and ease of the bal
let, Miss Marcella Matson appeared
as a saucy Pierrette, in white tulle
ballet costume, with frivolous black
pompons on the bouffante skirt
and on the hat. Her dance was
gay. pretty and delightfully."- imper-
tinent and done with spirit and a
deal Of stage presence. Miss Mat
son was followed by Miss sydney
Wilson, who assisted Mrs. knight
in the program. Miss Wilson made
a striking entree in beautiful
Spanish costume of black and red,
with red roses in her hair, and a
tambourine in her hand. Her

abandon and with grace and AL
lure, and was enthusiastically ell
cored as indeed were all the
dances, Mrs. Knights butterfly
dance closed the program, and left
a vision of exquisite daintiness and
an impression of the palpitating
tremour of the butterflys wings,
with its joyous sweep and flutter
in the sunshine. Her costume, an
other of Miss Ethel Hickey's de
signs, was a lovely thing of yellow
and orange tulle, shading to a vel
vet brown edge. The technique of
the dancer was clearly exhibited in
Friday nights performance.
TO Miss Ethel Hickey, the or
ganizer and inspiration of the Com
MUMMY Playhouse ASSoCldllOH' Is
due congratulatiOn upon her sue
cessful management of this season.
The Little Theatre is launched, and
requires only the support of the
public to enable it to go ahead and
produce better and better things.
Miss Hickey has not only arranged
the programs, but has designed and
made scenery and costumes for
many of the performances.
The musical accompaniment, to
the dancing was furnished, by piano
and violin, and for the Vision OF
Salome," Mrs, Inez Westlake as
sisted with the sung verses, the low
minor tones of which greatly en-

over. Schemes were devised for
bringing the members together, one
member reporting that some clubs
served refreshments at the begin
ming of the programs. In discuss
ing the means to secure a better
representation of their members at
all meetings it was found that as
a rule clubs limited as to member
ship secure a better representation
than others. The reason given for
this was that selected women felt
their responsibilities more than

PIONEER in REVIVED
ART OF WOOD ENGRAVING,

GustaVe Baumann, whose etch-
ings and wood block prints Will
be shown here within the next two
or three weeks at the Eiks club,
is one of the pioneers in the art
of wood engraving and wood block
prints Mr.. Baumann, a Hoosier
who studied abroad, brought to-
gether and held the first exhibition
of its kind ever shown in this
country, when, in 1916, he assem-
bled wood engravings and prints
from wood blocks from the diff
ferent wood engravers in this
country, and exhibited them in
Chicago at the Art institute.
Those who know the wood block
print Of the past have no idea of
the color and vivacity, the freedom
of Baumann's work, which is as
striking in black and white as in
colors The prints are enhanced
not a little by the hand carved
frames which MIR. Baumann makes,
for he is a wood carver, a maker
of toys and designer of furniture
as well as a painter. b. j. O..
Nordfeld, who has exhibited with
Mr.. Rauman before, is expected
to have an exhibition with him
here, although he has not stated
definitely yet that he would do so.
The exhibition will be under the
auspices of the Woman's clubs of
Albuquerque and hostesses will be
appointed to receive on different
days Mir. Baumann will be pres
ent and will personally explain the
art of the wood engraver, which
is a most fascinating one. His
western work, with pictures of
Santa F'e, of Indian pottery, and of
the designs found on the cave
jewellers walls, also his magnifi-
cent views of Frijoles canyon, will
be a revelation to many who have
known and loved the west and who
will welcome this new vision of it.
