The artist has spent much time in New Orleans, and is marries to music critic Winthrop Sargeant. Her paintings are neither representational nor abstract in style, but convey an exuberant love of the roundness and shapes of her subjects with their various areas of color. She brings to these delightful works the gaiety of New Orleans combined with a Matisse-like sense of color and design and relaxed bold brushwork. Colorful multi-shaped bottles and jars adorn sunny window sills and draped fabrics in gay stripes and patterns lend further color and compositional interest. These outstanding still lifes are quite unlike run-of-the-mill arrangements. They are boldly conceived and have a lovely strong cheerful quality. E. McG. Meredith Hupalo A one-man exhibition of paintings by Florida-born Meredith Hupalo currently is on view at the Contemporary Arts, Inc. The artist works in two styles- representational and semi-abstract- and although she is reasonably competent in both, it is her more realistic oils that are most effective, especially her lyrical still life flower studies, of which Inflorescense 2 is typical. Still, she is quite successful in Rugged Terrain, a semi-abstract landscape in which simplified forms create interesting visual tensions. One total abstraction, Color Symphony, has bold almost garish color, but is not otherwise especially effective. Jane Jaffe Degen at Artzt An assemblage of op art paintings by Degen currently is on view at the Ahda Artzt Gallery. The stripe is Degen's forte, and it appears in many versions in these hard-edge paintings, sometimes in horizontal stripes of varying thicknesses, or spiraling toward the center in concentric circles, or meeting at sharp right angles. Contrasts are bold- usually one basic color predominates, punctuated by black or white, and some black and white only- and the general effect is, as with most op art, somewhat dizzying, especially when the eye is greeted by many such paintings close together. Still, it is an interesting departure for a neophyte in the op art field. Jane Jaffe Grand Central Spring is in the air and the Grand Central Galleries has brought together a show which evokes all the beauty of surging waves and quiet shores. Benett Bradbury creates a quiet mood with his night sea coast while, in contrast, Arthur Sarnoff's rough seas challenge a sailboat and its occupants. The whaling scene of Robert Stickler is handsomely done as are the paintings of Tom Nicholas. Leonard Lane's moonlight sparkling on a quiet sea and beach is considerably different from the strong vertical treatment Richard Wagner gives his colorful marine scene. Those who love the sea will enjoy this show of artists who have painted the sea and coast in many moods and in many styles. H. G. I. Dillard at York One-man exhibition of oils and watercolors by Jean Dillard currently is on view at the York Gallery. Working exclusively in a representational mode, the artist concentrates on still lifes and landscapes, achieving eye-pleasing effects with scumbled, rough-pigmented textures and vivid color. Red Flowers, for example, is a lushly painted canvas, with a high gloss, while Terra de Lago, a water-side hilltop in Italy, is painted in more subdued colors, but has a more panoramic sweep. Included in the show are several richly painted Tennessee landscapes, with heavy green foliage caught in deep, earthly greens. Jane Jaffe Robert Reid "Hour Games," a series of oil paintings by Robert Reid, currently is being shown at the Grand Central Moderns Gallery. Calligraphy in the form of stenciled letters plays a key role in these subtle, understated picturegrams, executed in subtle beiges and light greens. Borrowing motifs from the medieval illuminated books of daily devotions (triptyches appear in at least two of the paintings, and other triune medieval motifs as well), the artist intermingles arcane symbols, often painted to give the effect of raised lettering on the parchment. The overall effect is somewhat mystifying, but always craftsmanlike and pleasing. Jane Jaffe Group at Artzt An current exhibition of gallery artists currently is on view at the Ahda Artzt Gallery, and, as usual, there is a generous sampling of various styles. In this instance, the representationalists are strongly represented especially by Artichokes, a well-designed semi-abstract still life by Avril Glenn, Hilltown, a softly pastelly oil by Emily Whaley, and a reflective genre painting, Maine Porch - Late Afternoon, by B. C. Kettlewood. The abstract expressionists are well represented by Bess Dawson, with her tension-filled Abstraction in vividly contrasting orange and black. A. Davis contributes a very attractive landscape in watercolor, Springtime.

Many of the works are landscapes of France often done in a thick and handsome style suggestive of the School of Paris. Minguet's scenes of French ports are done with the help of palette knives in thick muted tones, while a seascape by Koura is also in a knife technique in colors suggesting a cloudy day. Abadie has submitted a landscape in which knife-applied greens and oranges are applied on underpaint in a strong composition. A white country landscape by Bertin is effective with bright greens of trees adding depth to the composition. Scenes of Paris by Perol are colorful and well-done, and a nude and a view of a green park by Veccia are well-done semi-abstract works. A profile of a girl with a bouquet of irises done in intense tones of blue with a hint of green is an intriguing contribution of Brancourt. E. McG. Kainen at Roko Jacob Kainen, whose one-man show is currently to be seen at the Roko Gallery, paints large strong portraits of solid, quite earthly people. The women often are represented in contemplative poses- a dancer relaxes gracefully during intermission or a pretty woman sits comfortably with a serene thoughtful expression. Through all of the paintings, a subtle blue tone predominates and highlighting lines often are in mauve or in darker tones of blue. Facial planes are simplified, and the expressions gain strength by the suggestion of shadowy features. A strongly composed painting is a mother seated with her family holding a plump baby in her arms. The exhibition as a whole has subtle strength and warmth. E. McG.
