Still Life
The Playhouse art gallery is
showing, through tomorrow,
still-life paintings by Wash
ington area artists. Still life,
like landscape, played a sup
porting role in painting, from
the early Renaissance until
the 18th century, when the
Dutch masters gave it a stellar
role. Further impetus from
such 18th century masters as
Chardin made it important in
its own right.
Modern" handling of still
life is nearly a century old.
Cezanne's apples and rumpled
tablecloths are now old mas
terpieces; and the cubists' bat
tered guitars and wine bottles
command respect. Most of the
Playhouse exhibitions still-life
paintings are in modern i'd
IONS, and the objects which
inspired them doubtless pre-
sented interesting problems to
the artists.
But as wall decorations,
many of them leave much to
be desired. Marjorie Phillips
