THOMAS JENSEN, —— The Art Loan OMuiy, Feb, 18.—[To the B, |—While visiting among your representing Mossrs, Scribner & Sons in the interest of art, 1 find among many of your art loving neighbors a very strong desire to have an exhibition in Omaha of the works of rep- resentative American painters, Huaving a very general acquaintance with the leading Awerican artists, also considerable know- ledge of what is necessary to bring about a successful art exhibition, 1 will endeavor to give some of the most practical methods in such enterprises which may prevent mis- take and may be of value to any of your pub. lic spirited citizens who may have this matter in_contemplation. First, it is absolutely necessary to obtain the co-operation of the leading painters if you expect to get representative works, To do this it is necessary to avoid the usual method of somo individual citizen attempting through correspondence to accomplish this. The ar- tists will not notice such communications— as it has so frequently been made a matter of dvertising of some art_dealer in a town to an exhibition entirely in his own in sst, sending out circulars to artists saying ropose this and that, and in almost every ance when the artist loans their work to such enterprises there are none or very few sales and #is noone makes themselyes re- Exhibition Editor of Tue citizens, sponsible the return of the paintings is much delayed and the frames generally very much damaged, -and the artists only the loser.
