Paris has its glittering Ile de la Cite on the Seine, Budapest its merry Margaret Island on the Danube. New York City also has an island in the stream that may someday be an equally stimulating place to live or visit.

"Early One Morning" the most intriguing piece in the show, is a step farther from nature, but still shows the artist's fascination with a growing creation...
