Logging and hauling in the Flat

Buroque Abstructions

The first one-man show in
the United States, by Alejan-
dro Obregon, is on view at the
Pan American Union through
February IA. The artist, born
in Spain (1920) of Spanish
Colombian parentage, studied
art in Spain and in the United
States, four years at the school
OF the Boston Museum of Fine
Arts, and under Karl Zerbe.
He has held various posts in
Colombia, has executed murals
there, and spent several years
in France.
More than 30 oils are on
view, highly individual and
personal. They appear to COM
bine elements of baroque, alb
stract art and cubism. There
are many still life and flower
compositions, some of them
crowded with objects which
are recognizable but not nat
uralistic. Not a few of these
compositions are ingenious,
and the artist paints variations
on a theme, such as Three
Cups" Three canvases of this
title, all done in 1858, exploit
as many color schemes. One
of the outstanding paintings
in the collection to me is SOU

Story Of Flight
MARGIN OF ERROF

MARGIN OF ERROR. BY
Mary Borden. Longmans,
Green & Co.: $500
Two story threads plus a
subjective view of British
colonial policies compete for
attention in this novel of a
doomed flight from London to
Africa. One story thread in
wolves the flight itself-the
delayed realization that the
plane is hopelessly off-course.
The other story line centers
on the political repercussions
of the murder of a friendly
tribal chieftain by a native
agitator in the West African
colony to which the plane is
bound.
Completing the story pat
tern is the authors discussion
of Britain's self-conscious at
titude toward imperialism.
London theorizing is con-
trasted with the practical
knowledge of the men on the
spot in the critical time of
granting self-government to
the colony.
AS a novel, the suspense
inherent in the fight is in
evitably sacrificed to the da-
mands of the message"
MIRIAM GUTENBERG.
