There is an area Of oppor-

looking.

sical Shows. Operettas, Films.

is spokesmanship-or if one
prefers, speakmanship = of
impressive range and volume
present under the Spoken"
label, from pronouncements
of F.D.R. and Winston

Yeats; and under the COM
panion category an ex-
panse (and potential ex-
pense) even broader. The
ETC." in fact, is well calcu-
lated to guide the seeker gen.
erously. He could hardly ask
for more of it.
Inasmuch as some evidently
find musical conventionality
such as that represented by
Beethoven tiresome (c.f. this
column q couple or so weeks
ago), a resort to Schwann's
''Etc." and Misc" is strongly
recommended.
This requires that the in
vitation be somewhat more
explicit. Under etc" in the
first instance, then, the
Beethoven-satiated will en-
counter "The Adventures of

and in due course the 50th

Virginia Artist

Theodore Turner's first
Washington one-man show is
at Collectors Corner, 1925
Wisconsin avenue NV. from
3 to 5 this afternoon. The
collection comprises "a works,
about evenly divided between
water colors and prints. If
these were not shown to-
gether, I would not have sus-
pected they were done by the
same person.
The water colors are in
Sweet" high-keyed tints,
with light grays and gray
green. The best of them are
three dated 1857, of woods,
which are the most fully real
lied. Later work is increas-
ingly abstract, with wispier
application of wash.
On the other hand, his
prints, woodcuts, linocuts and
serigraphs are semiabstract,
strong patterns, angular, with
harsh colors and rough -hewn
figures. One can descry the
red and black nudes in Fam
lily Reunion" whereas figures
in Nativity" are abstracted
to the point of resembling a
grove of trees.
Born in Virginia (1922),
Mr.. Turner studied art in
Richmond and New York
City, taught two years at
Dartmouth College, and
since 1862, has been urofes-
sor of art at the University
of Virginia.
