PABLO PICASSO-Saidenberg, 1035 Madison Ave. at 79th. Jacqueline, the youthful model whom the Spanish master, 82, married three years ago, shows up often in these twelve oils (1955-63). Many may wonder, looking at the twisted caricatures he paints, why he bothers with a model at all. But he uses her to express the infinite changes and fundamental unity of the Picasso vision, turning her face every which way and examining it like the facets of a diamond. Through April...
DARREL AUSTIN-Perls, 1016 Madison Ave. at 78th. Austin casts a lunar spell: rarely does he paint a picture without a moon in it, and a full one at that. Capering in the silvery light are foxes, bulls, elephants, tigers-and maidens, round, ripe and waiting. Twenty-five oils. Through April...
JEAN DUBUFFET-World House, 987 Madison Ave. at 77th. Dubuffet has rushed from mixed pastes and putties to butterfly-wing collages to painting with knives and forks. Here shown are examples of his spirit for adventure and experiment, including works from the Arabe, Texturologie and Personnage series. Oils, assemblages, gouaches and drawings, done between 1943 and 1960. Through April...
STILL LIFES-Schweitzer, 958 Madison Ave. at 75th. The stimulus of still life is ages old, the artist's response to it always new. Persuasive testimony to the fact: a collection that begins with Vanderhamen, a Spanish painter of Flemish ancestry who worked in Madrid more than 300 years ago, embraces Ruoppolo, Bernard, Lebasque, Marie Laurencin (a pink bouquet of roses on wood believed to be her only extant still life), Pechstein, Hartley and others, concludes with a contemporary Spaniard, Josep Roca. Through March...
PAINTERS OF THE BEAUTIFUL-Durlacher, 538 Madison Ave. at 54th. "Cockney impudence," snorted Ruskin at Whistler's painting. Whistler sued and won. The arrows the Victorians flung at one another had more zing than their painting, which they tried to free from what they called the "claptrap" of emotions. Albert Moore, Charles Conder and Lord Leighton come close to succeeding; Whistler, fortunately, does not. Beauty without feeling, after all, is like being dressed up with no place to go. Some 30 works in various media. Through March...
