...verdict, Andrews is not alone in his enthusiasm. "I couldn't believe it, they were so powerful and beautiful," waxes J. Carter Brown, director of the National Gallery of Art in Washington, who next May is planning to mount the first Helga exhibition. "You are looking over the shoulder of a great master at work." Thomas Hoving, editor in chief of Connoisseur magazine and the leading impresario of fine-art hyperbole, proclaims that the group is "unique in art history -- to suddenly have before you this monumental body of great American painting.
