FAGE THREE E ON BIZARRE ART Attempts to Create Modern istic School of Religious Art Arouse Opposition Idea Held Blasphemous By JOHN LLOYD. VATICAN CITY (AP) Attempt to create a, modernistic school of re ligious art hsva met with the de cided oppoeltion of the Catholle church. Product of the pioneers In this field have been branded atrocities. "It la time to declare emphatically that looseness cannot express religious sentiment and that caricature is not worthy of sacred plcturltatlons." said Count Giuseppe do la Torre, editor of the Osservatore Romano, In summing un the church's attitude. "The search for the new, original and bizarre signifies a lack of com prehension of that which Is and can be nothing other than traamonai. CaUs Idea Blasphemous. He termed the new art tendency a return to the "barbarities' of the late middle ages, and in its appli cation to religious subjects he said It waa blasphemy. "It Is time to call for a stop to this audacity," he added. "These modernistic and futuristic splurges are an Insane anachronism in , the midst of that which Is eternal. "Who so wishes may grant to ordl nary art the right to keep pace with changes In material life, but such changes cannot apply to that art which regards religion." Pointing out that sacred art must . remain true In expression of the liturgy, he said it Is regulated by set laws and forms. A saint inereiore, he said, muBt not be "vulgarized" and a church must not be pictured to re semble a dance-hall. Wide Field Open. The vast number of subjects to choose from and the episodes In the hlKtnrv of the faith that can be pic tured give artists an almost unlimited field for Innovation wunoui depart ing from the true form of expression ha concluded. A display of "modernlstlo religious art" reproduced In a German periodi cal provoked the church's reaction. The Osservatore editor opined that the only figure deploted faithfully In the whole set of drawings was that of an ass. TWO DEER FALL BY ONE BULLET CHEYENNE, Wyo., Oct. 12.
