Morris Graves, Kenneth Callahan, Guy Anderson) and four New York sculptors (Rhys Caparn, David Hare, Seymour Lipton, Ezio Martinelli). Their paintings and sculptures range from simplified realism to completely nonobjective works, but both shows have a strong list to the abstract...
...majority of prizewinners in the Chicago and Corcoran exhibits [Jan. 21] seem like the feckless choices of a madman. James Brooks's R-1953, which resembles nothing more than an imperfectly stained laboratory slide, cannot be interpreted as anything but a refined experiment in egomania.

Mortimer is acted well, but Hugh Reilly often forces excessive gusto or thickheadedness into his part. The glowering Jonathan is solidly acted by George Cotton, who, sadly, looks like Orson Welles instead of Boris Karloff (the role was written as a parody of Karloff, and Karloff...
