...ceased to experiment: one painting in the show, Accompanied Contrast (1935), has sand mixed in with the paint on the canvas. Later he seemed to be looking into a world of microscopy; his (Surroundings) (Environment) of 1936 resembles a blown-up slide of gaudy amoebae sprawling on a speckled lab culture.

Touched off by the revolutionary Tjio-Levan discovery, six hectic years of work on chromosomal abnormalities have already revealed clear links with some physical and mental disorders. Dr. Tjio got a personal award of $8,333 but no cash...
