Showing of Art in Grand| Palais Is Marked by Sobriety. BARIS (). — Sobriety — relative so- | briety at least when compared to recen! years—marks the Salon d’Automne of | 1929 in the Grand Palais of the Champs | Elysees, which year by year achieves a| more international character. | Soon, it would seem, there will be nc Prench artists among the exhibitors All will be Japanese, with a few Slavs and Anglo-Saxons. Critics say there is a significant lack of originalify in this exhibition. Many old tricks are displayed and very few new ones. Pastiche is general and plagiarism is frequent. | Poster Hints Futuristic. Van Dongen's lurid poster outside the | Grand Palais would give the impression that one is about to enter the most fu- | turist of salons. Yet as one glances at the portrait of Mme. Boiserain by the same Van Dongen, hung a few yards in- side the main entrance, he fecls that he has wandered into the home of con- servatism. Animals_invariably lead in number whether the exhibits be paintings, en- gravings or sculptures. A few drawings of apes by Margat and the brush draw- ings of horses by Ynglada have attract- ed attention. So have the carvings o! kids, boars. calves and other animals by Pierre Blanc. A wearisome vista of landscape: stretches through gallery after gallery The shorescapes of Desboeuf and some pictures of trees and houses by Bonfils have been called worth while. —Sea- scapes by rail have been credited with qualities of speclal decoration. Japanese Artists Flood Salon. Subject pictures and portraits shov little that was unexpected by experts An example of gargantuan calligraphy exhibited by Jacqueline Marval has be: one of the few successes of the sever: hundreds. Japanese artists have flooded th salon with an abundance of paintings They show no higher level of execution than other schools and are conspicuou: chiefly by their number. A westernized study of a group on 1 balcony by Ishii has been praised. Hase- gawa has technical ability which leacs him to display its various facets in sepa- rate works. Negase has flowers and landscapes. All the other Japanes: | work is in the tradition of Fujita, biit cosmopolites aver it is not done tu prettily. !
