History of Modem Art
Discussed by Recent
Salem Visitor
IN view of the unusually great interest evoked in Salem by
the recent visit of M. and Mme. Marius Hubert-Robert
and in the exhibition of M. Hubert-Robert's paintings the
following excerpts from Mme. Hubert-Robert's lecture on
the development of modern art are apropos.
"If we look at a Corot, we can hardly call this modern, !
and still his technic was one of O --
Pattern
the major revolutions in art since
the 18th century. Since I have
married I have heard many stor
ies, which to me sound merely
amusing, about this period. My
husband's grandfather was a con
temporary of Corot, and my father-in-law
belonged himself to his
school in his youth. My husband's
grandfather, son and grandson of
famous artists, was a very conser
vative one. Official artist, attach
ed to Napoleon the Third and
afterwards to King Louis Phillipe,
carefully he would paint the em
peror on horseback, in front of a
dark forest, just as stiff as the
horse itself, the whole thing ter
ribly conventional, and he was
horrified when a genius tried to
infiltrate a little more of the sen
timent in a picture. You could
not count the leaves on a tree
painted hy Corot, and this was
sacrilege.
"It took several years for the
horror to subside; then gradually
Corot came into his own: he had
followers and he became the head
of the Barbizon school. Barbizon
is a beautiful bit of forest in Fon
tainebleau, near Paris. There art
ists went to live; they talked a
great deal about this new turn
and sometimes when they could
not articulate one more word,
suppose, they painted pictures. ex-
tremeiy good pictures I would
say.

"My father-in-law was one of
these art mousquetaires, and
loved to hear him talk about these
golden days. Sometime later the
whole crowd of artists left Barbi
zon for Pont-Aven, in Brittany
An old maid, whom history knows
as Julia, opened a hotel for the
artists. She made herself respon
sible for the care of the turbu
lent and pleasant colony; today
one can judge of the temporary
reverses of now famous artists, by
the canvas tendered in payment
ror bins when things were bad
Julia sold some . . . but the huge
dining , room is entirely made of
wooden panels in which the p3e
tures are inlaid. It is one of the
very best collections of the per
iod, and the hotel is famous all
over , the world, and Julia is
millionaire,! which shows that
sometimes it pays to be a poor
Business woman.

Silverton Hills. Mr. and Mrs.
E. O. Nelson were hosts to the
members of the Trinity Sunday
school teachers of Silverton at
their July meeting. Plans were
made for the annual Sunday
school picnic to he held in con
junction with the Trinity Young
People's society July 31.
Miss Marie Tingelstad was ap
pointed to serve with Mrs. H.
Jensen and Mrs. S. Torvend as a
coffee committee at the picnic.
Miss Lillian Black was selected to
serve on the program committee
to make plans for the athletic
events. Oscar Satrum and Palmer

The rapid development of the ! vacation month for the Sunday
ultra-modern schools, further! s and its faculty
something like the launching of
a spaghetti mine. Shabby students
and young millionaires painted
yards of canvas nobody wanted to
have or even to see; they com
forted themselves by chatting
days and night in Montparnasse,
in the noisy cafes . . .; for years
they drank rivers of cafe creme,
and niagaras of beer. If all the li
quid absorbed by the Ecole de
Paris had been put together, we
would have had another ocean. It
is a shame nobody thought of it
before; it would have helped the
health of many youngsters, and
perhaps watered the African desert"
sketched by the lecturer, indica
ted something of the feverish In
tensity of Paris art circles, an In
tensity which Mme. Hubert- Rob
ert assures us is past.
Her story of Dorgeles, Paris
writer, who with his friends in
duced a donkey to paint a sur
realist picture with his tail, a
br'-sh, and red, green and blue
paint, cleverly describes the ac
claim with which the picture was
received and the laughter follow
ing the disclosure of Its creation.
Today art in France is said to
be back on a sane basis where the
modern is accepted only -when it
is beautiful.
Among these modern French
artists, M. Hubert-Robert is out
standing. His charming and cap
able wife draws as a conclusion
from tbe chaotic history of mod
ern art the fact that from all ex
tremes much good has arisen and
"even from cubism," says she,
"we adopted the color."
Motoring out to the Nelson
home were Miss Lillian Black,
Mrs. Henry Torvend, Mrs. M. G.
Gunderson, Mrs. H. E. Johnson,

the spirit of a picture was more
important j than cold reality
AroUnd them, people stormed, ar
gued, worse than they had done
for Corot; pictures of these men
were rejected from the Paris Sa
lon, endless jokes, often cruel
were made about them. For years
they fought, bitterly, passionate
ly, vulgarly, according to their
temper. Then, the day of their
triumph arrived. Impressionism I
was recognized.
All impressionists were not on
the same level: Gauguin, for In
stance, whose work is exhibited on
a large scale at the Chicago exhi
bition, was a former, sailor and
fighter, who did most ot his work
in Tahiti, gained his recognition
more with his fists and his swear
ing than with his talent: while
Claude Monet, the nympheas
painter, was more persuasive and
more elegant in his .arguments.
The only fault we can find with
Impressionism, Is that It has open
ed the door to all kinds of excess.

Some great artist tried to sim
plify their technic, to indicate
their moods by very simple lines.
Matisse took the lead ot the ex
pressionist school. The trouble
with that conception is that good
artists know very well what they
mean, or what they try to grasp,
but their followers do not seem
to have a very clear idea of thei
goal. - - ,. v .
After the great war, many for

can call this teaching. In Mont

masters . . . had been famous,
were known the world over; but
the thousands of students who fol

Poisal Blames Worlds Fair
For Lack of Tourists;
Yets Reserve Cabins
"I think It's the World's fair at
Chicago that's dono it," opined
Superintendent Henry 8. Poisal
Tuesday In commenting on why
patronage of the municipal auto
campground here was exception
ally light this season. He said
that many auto park operators up
and down the Pacific highway
were reporting scarcely enough
business tor sustenace. At the city
camp, from eight to ten tourists'
cars dally have been the average,
in contrast with from thirty to
fifty in other years.
"It looks to me as though peo
ple in the west planning on an
automobile vacation have gener
ally decided this is an opportune
year to visit their eld homes in
the east." said Mr. Poisal. "And
the easterners seem to be stay
ing back there, probably spending
their vacations at the fair."
The lew ears stopping ever-
night at the municipal auto park
now are generally from Oregon.
Washington or California. Few
eastern and equally few Rocky
mountain tourists have checked
in here.
From July 23 to 26 will see a
temporary change in the appear
ance of the camp. A group of
Eugene Spanish-American war
veterans have already reserved
and paid for all 12 cabins at the
park for their use while attend
ing the state encampment of the
organization between those dates.
