...wares range from the elegant wired constructions of Harry Bertoia to the thick figure paintings of the late David Park to the haunting geometry of Painter Attilio Salemme. Otto Gerson deals mostly in first-rate sculpture from Barlach to David Smith. The Willard Gallery (Feininger, Mark Tobey, Morris Graves, Sculptor Richard Lippold) is excellent; so is John Bernard Myers' Tibor de Nagy Gallery, whose artists include Larry Rivers, Robert Goodnough and Fairfield Porter. In the print field, the sightseer or collector can do no better than start at the A.A.A. Gallery on Fifth Avenue, which has the most catholic...
...Charles Demuth, and Stieglitz' wife, Georgia O'Keeffe. In addition to the works of these three, Dealer Halpert also sells the paintings of the late Yasuo Kuniyoshi, Arthur Dove and Max Weber.

Today, at 71, Underwood does not have to depend so much on ravens. People have begun to buy his work, for when, after an eight-year hiatus, he finally consented to a one-man show in London two years ago, British critics raved...
...This unfashionable "literary" approach to art, as well as an almost compulsive shyness about exhibiting, has kept Underwood out of the public notice. But he has done his share to set the stage for modern British sculpture. At one time he ran a small drawing school, which a promising sculptor named Henry Moore attended. Moore still credits Underwood with having done more for him than any earlier teacher, and the two men are often compared and contrasted by British critics...
