Museums and art galleries report attendance on a steady increase. The Metropolitan Museum, for instance, said last year it had 5,088,764 visit ors, an all-time high and more than double the attendance of a decade ago. To one woman shaping an unusual career in the art world, this "galloping enthu siasm" as she calls it J Is caused by a variety of fac tors. Said Barbara Rex: "Some gallery-vanters are there because this Is the thing to do. Others have a sincere desire to see and enjoy and learn more about art. And of course, there is more ex posure to art than ever before because there are more paint ers and more galleries." Miss Rex is an Independent art lecturer and believes she is unique in the country. She runs private group tours to galleries and museums. Each of the groups has -a regular schedule of as many as 20 lec tures during the course of a "school year," which begins in the fall. The art lecturer limits to 10 the number on gallery tours; but recause the museums have more space, she can take as many as 20 on these tours. The tours include dis cussion of the history of art,' its various schools, visits to famous canvases, and also ex ploration of the works of new: painters. "The way to get the most out of a painting is to look at it." she said. "Reading may give you a background, but in the end you must see again and again ... it is incredible how the eye develops." To enjoy gallery-going, Misa Rex suggested the observer take along an open mind, "no preconceived notion of what a painting should give you," she said. "See if you can tell what the artist wanted to do. "If you judge art only by whether it pleases you, it means' the painter Is subject to what you're looking (or. The artist is the adventurer ... the spectator has to catch up." . ; 'J : i 1 NEW STOCK WILL BE ADDED MONDAY ITALIAN WOOL KNITS H Jaunty wool knit wolking - . fJ 1 suit for that well-bred l V .'J ' 1 t ' III n f i Slim skirt, and controst III 13 j! color shell blouse.
