LEONARD BASKIN-Borgenicht, 1018 Madison Ave. at 78th. More of his men, birds and birdmen, but if Raskin's themes remain unchanged, his treatment is always fresh. Few artists break up space so imaginatively, or trap the animal lurking in humans with more cunning. Some of the 22 drawings are eight feet high.
