So if you have not yet seen this’ un- usual group of primitive paint- | ings, you have only through to- day, Thursday to do so. The pic- | tures will be on view at the ho- tel until late in the evening. Key Westers ars used to bright colors and used to art exhibitions too, but ther have seldom seen a group of paintings as provoca- tive as this one. Voodoo, wakes, the Crucifixion, Death, country scenes and still-lifes, are all han-} dled in clear, brilliant, limpid colors. The ideas, like the colors, all are pure and clear and sim- ple, truly primitive are, inspired | by religious or spiritual experi- ence. The figures, shapes and masses are all unself-consciously, childlike, and although few or none of the rules of technique or perspective are employed, the meaning and intent are always clear. In all of the pictures, no matter how crude or child-like the painting of the objects or masses, there is a thin tenuous, lacy quality like an. over-all Wrought-iron design that is sug- gestive of voodoo writing; and the persistently childlike figures are definitely reminiscent of the Dahomean applique, although they lack the authoritative de- tail of this highly developed art of Dahomey, that’ wealthy little kingdom of the West African Guinea Coast. Three outstanding canvases of the 25 of this Haitian Art Exhi- bition at the Casa Marina, are by Hector Hyppolite, who, according to Selden Rodman, director of the Haitian Center, was one of the outstandingly successful and tal- énted of the Haitian primitive artists. Hyppolite’s death in June 1948 was a great loss. Two of his pictures in this exhibition, “The Vodun Gods” and “Two Nudes” use slightly darker colors than most of the other paintings, puce and dark reds and blues and greens touch each other; but whether it's the unusual use of white-space, or the black, lacy, wrought-iron effect outlines, the overall effect is clarity and light. The “Crucifixion”, Hyppolite’s {third picture in this show, is all light, with much white, and light green and yellow and just enough black outline to recall the trage- dy of that occasion. The Crucifix- {ion was the last thing Hyppolite ‘ painted before his death in June, 1948. | Castera Bazile’s canvas of “The Wake of Hyppolite” is an aston- ishingly livable one. Eight or nine bright figures surround the lequally bright corp e, on whose {chest rests a basket of food. One can almost feel the bright sur- rounding figures ying, “This man is our friend and even in death continues our friend as long as his memory lives.” Philome Obin. according to Selden Rodman, Haiti’s outstand- ing realistic painter is represent- ed by just one canvas, “Some | Carnival Disguises,” but.he is to | have a one-man show at the Hai- tian Centre in New York next May. D. L. Cedor has two can- vases, one very large one depict- Caimen which was for the revolution of 1791, charmingly simple one “Diner Pay {ner showing a family _ sitting around a bowl with ears of corn and other vegetables. Another cheerful canvas by Merelius | supposed to be depicting a voo- | doo dance, but it is so bright and and a called ‘colorful it looks as though it should be called “Mayday in Haiti.” Among the outstanding Key Westers and visitors at the C: \m a's Art Exhibition were: | Miss Marie Cappick, Mrs. Steph- {en W. Douglass, Miss Elizabeth | Bishop, Mrs. Pauline Hemingway, {Mrs. Libby Brook, Mrs. Julius Stone and her daughter, Mr. and Mrs. Ross Garnett, Mrs. Hari Kidd, Mrs. Frank Bowser, Mrs. Harold J. Reilly, Mrs. Mary Pen- tecost, Mr. and Mrs. George Mills White, Miss Jeanne Kirk, Com- mander and Mrs. H. W. Bredin and Rev. and Mrs. J. A. MaeCon- nell of St. Paul's Episcopal Church. Refreshments and a_ special | Haitian rum punch will be serv- afternoon on the closing day of this outstanding Haitian Art Ex- hibit. Hidenensd a Orians, Second, Lecturer Of Audubon Screen Tour Series, To Arrive In Key West On Next Monday Howard L. Orians, the next speaker in the Audubon Screen Tour Series, is expected to ar- rive in Key West about noon on next Monday, according to word received from Orians by George Mills White, Vice President of the Monroe County Audobon Society and Chairman of the Screen Tours Committee. Ever since his childhood days in Marion, Ohio, Howard L, Or- ians has been intensely interest- ed in the out-of-doors, as a stu- dent of birds, a fisherman, and, as he says, “to a small extent, a hunte: However, his ‘“hunt- ing” has chiefly been done with a motion picture camera; and he has become well known for his wildlife photography According to an announcement made today by Stuart*S. Whiting, | President of the local Audubon Society there has been a change in the location of the student's matinee which was announced for 2 p. m. at the High School Auditorium. Because of the diffi- culties of properly darkening this auditorium in daylight arrange- ments have been made to hold | the afternoon session next Mon- day in the auditorium of the Di- vision Street School instead. All holders of student memberships should report to the Division Street School auditorium at 2 o'clock. The evening Screen Tour for adults will be held, as usual, in the High School Auditorium at eight o'clock, with Mr. Orians commenting on his excellent na- ture movies. ' Season memberships to the four remaining events of the Screen Tour Series may be ob- tained from any member of the Monroe County Audubon Society lat a reduced rate of dues.

This eventuality might pos- | sibly turn out to be a vast im- provement over present condi-! tions, but that of course is beside | the point. We are talking about puttering, and I want to goon record as not only approving thoroughly | of the practice, but as being aj putterer from ‘way back myself.! Some of my happiest hours have been spent in that pursuit. | If you are a true putterer you | get into something comfortable, | ihum a tuneless song gently to j yourself, and seek a box filled with useless objects that you have tucked away several, months previously. You sit down, | open the box and paw aimlessly | through its contents. The box contains. you find, one of a pair of backgammon } dice, half a bottle of nail polish, |seven bobby pins, two used emery boards, half a yard of yellow ribbon, four inches of elastic webbing, thrée Christmas seals without any glue on the backs, a picture postcard of a waterfall in Georgia, half a yard of pink ribbon, a receipted. bill! dated 1938 that you nevertheless | keep because you have a feeling; it may be presented again and you'd better have the receipt to prove you've already paid it, two skeins of embroidery floss, six odd buttons, a belt buckle, seven inches of lace insertion, two rusty needles, half a yard of blue ribbon, a ring from which the setting has fallen out, . some loose pearls, but not a sufficient number of them to make a full string, a small 1943 calendar, three bridge score pads, a couple of chewed pencils, a small glass figure of a monkey, some bent paper clips, half a yard of black ribbon, a pair of rubber he@s and a large number of other com- pletely unrelated small objects. You caréfully take all’ these things out of the box and lay them aside. After a good deal of consideration, you decide to throw away the paper clips, following which profound de- cision you carefully replace! everything in the box, close it up and tuck it back in the closet. Still fired with ambition, you, decide to straighten out the! bottom shelf of the bookcase. | This you do in a deliberate, un-j hurried and unharried manner, stacking things up carefully so! that the largest things are on the | bottom and gradually pyramid-| ing up to the smallest thing on top. You contemplate your | achievement with a good deal of} satisfaction, | Then, with a_ self-congratula- | tory feeling, and well satisfied | with your work, you take your- self off to bed, secure in the) knowledge that you have accom- plished something. This brings on a deep, dreamless and un- troubled sleep. Let those who will cavil at the “idle frittering away of time in useless pursuits” like putter- ing. I enjoy it.
