EdeImun's Second

Ann Edelman's second solo
exhibition at The Artists
Mart, 1851 Wisconsin avenue
NV. through March 81, pre-
sents more than 20 abstract
expressionist paintings, inter
preted generally in a state
ment by the artist, hanging
with the show. Visitors are
advised to read such state
ments, as an aid to under
standing the show. Miss
Edelman says in part that
painting Is "a method Of
opening areas Of feeling
rather than the illustration Of
objects" 1T is not a sitting
Of reality, but my response
to It,"
She endeavors to convey
this by abstract shapes and
color combinations. Aided
by titles, the visitor may feel
"Foggy Day" In the dark and
light grays and white areas;
Indian Summer" in the tide
Of scarlet sweeping up over
green, yellow and white, and
Turmoil" in jagged maroon
shapes. some partly sub
merged, in green.
But unless one can climb
into the mind and feelings of
the artist. the expressiveness
Of abstract expressionism
seems likely to remain a per-
sonal affair. A painting may
mean one thing to the artist,
and something quite different
to everyone else. (Open daily
10 to $50, Thursday until
8 pm.)

days a week. He then made
his selections and they were
photographed, in color, by
a mother Washingtonian,
Henry B. Beville, chief pho
tographer at the National
Gallery Of Art. The two then
travelled to Japan, where
they added 18 examples. The
balance of the paintings is
from the great museums and
private collections of Europe
and America, including, of
course, the Freer.
Access to the Palace Mu-
scum Collection has given
Mr.. Cahill a great advantage
over any previous text on
Chinese painting employing
color. He has used his ad-
vantage fully. The color
plates carry us from the ear
lest surviving examples Of the
Han Dynasty, which ended
early in the Sd century,
through the 18th century
sunset of the Ching, the last
of the imperial dynasties to
rule China.
At least as important as
Mr.. Cahills informed and
informative choice of pic
lures is what he has done
with them in the text. The
easiest thing for an art his
torian to do is to settle back
and reel off the chief char
acteristics of any art tradi-
ton as it moves through the
centuries. This is one reason
fewer people read art history
than any other variety. Mr..
Cahill avoids this temptation
completely.
The heart Of the text is
close examination Of picture
after picture, with the lay
out achieving good integra-
ton of the discussion and the
thing being discussed. For
the general reader, this
makes a compelling introduc-
ton to a subject which, after
all, most of us in the West
know little about. Along with
this close view of specific
pictures, Mr.. Cahill has un-
obtrusively covered the his
tory Of Chinese society with
special regard to its effects
on art. Movements, periods
and schools are handled In
terms of individual artists;
individual artists are handled
in terms of the picture before
you as you read.
Coming to Washington
The Palace Museum Collec-
ton, which has afforded such
scope to Mr.. Cahill's sure eye,
will shortly afford q good
deal of pleasure to other eyes
in Washington. On May %,
an exhibition of paintings,
ceramics and objets dart
from the Palace Collection
opens at the National Gal
lery, where it will be on view
through most Of the summer.
From Washington, the show
will go to the Metropolitan
Museum in New York and to
other major American inSti-
tutionS. All in all, this will
be the most important exhi-
bition of Chinese art ever to
appear in America, as well as
one of the top international
art events this year and next.
No better preparation could
be asked than Mr.. Cahill's
book.

the shining images on the
classroom screen.
1t has been said in defense
of the high gloss that it takes
the place of certain qualities
in painting quite beyond the
powers of art reproduction,
notably size and texture. 1t
has also been noted that,
until recent cleanings at
least, many of the master
pieces of European painting
from the late Renaissance to
the end of the 10Th century,
actually were themselves COW
cred with heavy varnish.
More to the point, all
painting reproduction is dis
torted. There is no question
Of whether to distort, only a
question Of what way.
OF all the kinds of paint
ing especially subject to bad
distortion from high gloss,
none is more crucially so
than Chinese painting. 1t is
subtle and delicate. The ma
terialS, usually, are ink and
water color, rather than the
more substantial oil. The
supports are silk or paper,
rather than tough linen
canvas. The spirit, too, is
subtle and delicate. Land
scape is profoundly affected
by the fact that it is shown
with a scholar contemplating
it. Blossoms, in Chinese
painting, seem infinitely more
fragile than they do in life.
An ink line sometimes ap-
pears to be a wisp of smoke
fallen on the paper in just
the right way.
In view of all this, it is
extremely welcome news that
Skira has broken with his
past. There is no varnish in
the inks. There is no sheen,
no gloss at all in the color
plates. 1t must have been
difficult to achieve, but on
coated paper the reproduc-
tions actually have a matte,
or dull, finish.
CahillS Contribution
The result is about as good
a book Of art reproductions
as 1t is possible to achieve.
The difference in size be-
tween original and printed
reproduction is much less
than is usual in European
art. Ink and water color are
much more closely approx
mated by printing inks than
are oil paints. The restraint
and austerity of Chinese art
have made it a particularly
good target for the modern
arts of reproduction.
The major achievement, of
course, is Mr.. Cahill's. and he
was helped by accidents of
history and politics. The
heart of the book is the
group of 43 examples from
the Palace Museum Collec-
ton. This, "by far the larg-
est and richest body of Chi
nese art in existence" was
assembled by the Manchu
emperors in the 18th century.
Nationalized in 1925, the col
lection has been in hiding
most of the years since, at
first from the Japanese, then
from the Chinese Commu-
nists. 1t is now stored in
warehouses on Formosa, with
access to a deep tunnel where
the treasures will be moved
in case of new threats to
their existence.
To do the book, Mr.. Cahill
spent six weeks in Formosa,
studying the collection six
