The Art Word
Photographs of Modern Dutch Architecture
On Exhibition at the Octagon House

lgiven very engaging setting, which
it admirably graces and for which
it was obviously designed.
This adjustment of architecture
to surroundings is vitality important
and yet most often overlooked. Hol-
land, as every one knows, is a low
lying country, snatched from and
fortified against the sea-a country
of long, low horizons, in which
buildings of 1oftiness would be ut
terly out of place. This the archi-
tects of the Netherlands seem to
have fully realized.
| To be sure, in Holland, as in the
United States, opponents of modern
design in architecture have at times
carried their theories to extravagant
conclusions.
We see some such exemplifled in
this exhibition, despite the wisdom
and consent of the Board of Esthetic
Supervision. Most fragrant of these
Is the use of what has here been
appropriately, but loosely, nick
named the Mississippi Show Boat"
style, of which the building erected
for the Museum of Modern Art in
New York is an outstanding ex-
ample Also there are buildings of
multiple rooms fashioned after the
interior of a country post Office,
multiple boxes in orderly array with
glass fronts-no beginning, no end
without design.
In Holland as we'll as here in the
United States, these are described
as "functional", but the fact is that
only in rare instances do they func-
ton at all. One of the laws of ar
chitecture which generations have
found acceptable is that of con-
formity of exterior to purposes of
use. Why then construct library
with the outward appearance of a
laundry, or a country residence
fashioned in appearance upon a
hap hazard pile of baking pans.
But art is a delicate flower, diff
cult to transplant, not easy to grow
We must have patience with the
extravagancies of youth and eager
ness for self-expression. Such ex-
treme cases as those referred to
above are rare in the exhibition
from Holland. This and the ma
jority of successful achievements il
Illustrated should give us hope.
Of all the countries of the world
Holland has borrowed least from
others Her buildings in the past
have been substantial but essential
ly Dutch. The fashion OF the CLASH
cal, the Gothic, the various revivals,
seem to have passed her by. So to-

The Earth's Rebirth
PRIZE CONTRIBUTION

woke this morning. not to find
The snowy world I left behind,
But in its place I found the earth
Had been subjected to rebirth.
Upon first glance thought the view
Could not be real, but then knew
That spring had come. The flowers
bloomed
Where yesterday they lay entombed.
The f1eecy clouds, the azure sky
Were proof that winter had passed
by.
The golden sun shone everywhere,
And cast bright patterns here and
there.
I stole outside so quietly
To sit beneath the olden tree;
Where yesterday its limbs were bare,
Today gay birds were settled there.
In all my thoughts I heard them
sing
Those cheerful notes proclaiming
spring,
And my heart, too, burst into song
The winters chill had been so long.
And as the sunset brings to close
This day, sit in sweet repose,
And as I've pondered, I have prayed
That springtime's beauty shall not
fade.
