KAREL APPEL-Hahn, 960 Madison Ave. at 75th. Appel pummels the canvas in violent combat with his images, beating his nudes into a submission that they mock with their startling audacity. At Jackson, 32 East 69th, he provides his candid figures with saxophones, pearl-handled pistols, and telephones for eyes, ears and mouths. Both through April...
ROBERT HENRI-Chapellier, 954 Madison Ave. at 75th. Henri was best as a portraitist: with two circlets of emerald green he puts a Gaelic glint into an Irish boy's eyes.

WILLIAM BRICE-Alan, 766 Madison Ave. at 66th. The son of Broadway's Funny Girl Fanny Brice seems to have inherited his mother's fancy for art but not her sense of humor. His tragic nudes used to flower like human vegetation in a symbolic embrace with nature; now they languish outside the bleak windows of the artist's studio. Oils and drawings. Through April...
