friends and associates; he knows
whereof he speakes. But one cannot
see and carefully examine these paint
ings by Walt Kuhn, now on exhibi-
ton. without realizing that he has
studied and thought-that he has
arrived at simplicity through the
rough road OF discipline. His is not
the art which conceals itself, mys-
teriously through complete command
Of medium and maturity Of expert
ence, but through its strength and
directness it does satisfy demands
and carry conviction. There Is, in
fact, a certain roughness OF express
sion which on the instant shocks but
this is not a roughness of ignorance
or ill-manner, but deliberate choice
and by intent-and after accomplish
ing its purpose can be forgot.
Undoubtedly the paintings by Mr..
Kuhn have character and style
they go so far but no farther-their
message is delivered in single blow,
but it is insistent. In the matter Of
color his works are inclined to be
harsh, with the harshness found in the
dissonances of modern music. which
some enjoy. But on the whole there
is nothing that really clashes in his
color schemes-nothing which offends
the eye as inartistic. Most pleasing
are his figures in costume-"Girl in
Uniform" Carnival Girl" "Lassie,"
Fancy Dress"-all OF which have
colorful quality, picturesqueness and
strength, but Likewise memorable are
his portrait studies Of a "Woodsman"
and Of "Juggler"-the latter rem
dered with special simplicity. Nor
does he stop here, for two still-life
subjects-"Apples With Salmon Cloth"
and Fruit Platter un-
equivocably his feeling for his me
dium and grasp OF art. and in his
rendition of q bunch Of "Talisman
Roses" in a jar on a table, there is
an impressive splendor OF color asso-
ciated with form.
The drawings are interesting as
supplementing the paintings, but less
notable in themselves, with two ex-
ceptions-large landscapes which are
done in wash and line, in unique
manner and very effective. Collec-

Is the city picture, essentially Ameri-
can, with its titanic achievement in
the way OF skyscrapers, etc, that at
tracts his eye and stirs his emotions.
One Of his Autographs in this exhi-
bition Is entitled Granite and Steel"
and represents Rockefeller Center,
New York, with its stupendous height
and bulk and repeated window pat

ton represent Pennsylvania colleries,
third sets forth the Sweep Of

tints are one Of the Hudson Bridge"

yards. These are all rendered with
force and boldness as betoken the
themes.
More picturesque, and rendered with
lighter touch, are certain subjects
found abroad, such as The Arno,
Florence" and via Capponi," in the
same lovely city. Surely it is no re-
flection on ones patriotism to suggest
that the beauty of Old World buildings

Future generations will undoubtedly be
amazed at the immensity of our build

us, great heritage of beauty?
