Mr. Onslow-Ford Is a paint
er who has worked quietly
and inconspicuously ' for 30

essence of painting since Cez
anne's formulation of the con
cept that In painting, the
world may be mirrored en
tirely In terms of various geo
mctical volumes. Mr. Onslow
Ford has reduced his concept
to the utilization of line, cir
cle and riot.
He refers to his work as
"Instant painting", because
the actual time (hat the brush
is touching the canvas is very
brief.
Born In Wendover, Eng
land, he Is a graduate of both
the Royal Naval college, Dart
mouth, and the Royal Naval
college, Greenwich. After five
years of Naval duty he resign
ed his commission and turn
ed to painting.
In 1937 in Paris he became
part of the surrealist group.
Today he has one of the most
complete collections of sur
realist paintings in the Unit
ed Slates. In 1940 he lectured
on surrealism ai the New
School of Social Research in
New York City.
Since that time he has exper
imented in a number of med
ium and ground, and recently
has had special paints form
ulated by chemical companies
for the special needs of his
technique.
Lived in Maxico
Prior to moving to the Bay
area IS years ago, he spent
nearly 10 years in Erongari
cuaro, Michoacan, Mexico.

The Rogue Valley Art asso
ciation has engaged its first
professional director. He is E.
Theodore Lindbcrg of Eugene
and the University of Ore
gon's Museum of Art, who
was selected by the board of
directors.
Mr. Lindbcrg assumed his
duties July 15 and at this
time is preparing several
shows of painting including
the Onslow-Ford exhibition
which opens Wednesday.
Born in Jamestown, New
York in 1931, Mr. Lindberg
attended the State University
of New York, Syracuse uni
versity and took a bachelor's
degree from the National
University of Mexico.
Employed most of his ca
reer as an industrial designer,
advertising lay-nut artist and
design-public relations spe
cialist, he became seriously
Interested in art museum and
gallery work only last year
and decided to devote his full
time to that field.
"I've spent so much time in
museums and galleries, im
mersed in various aspects of
art," he said, "I felt I might
as well be doing and enjoying
it as a vocation."
Mr. Lindberg feels that his
first responsibility is to in
creasing membership in the
association.
Art Musaum Society
"The association," he re
minded a group of artists re
cently, "is in essence an art
museum society. We will as
sume that we are an art mu
seum society without, pres
ently, a museum, and that I
am a museum director with
out, presently, an edifice."
"Our first goal should be
the increase in membership
by at least 2,000 persons."
Mr. Lindberg also believes
that a museum is an integral
part of a community and
should be used as efficiently
and wisely as any other pub
lic meeting place.
"It is possible," he said,
"that an art museum can be
a living, dynamic thing, bus
tling with activity and on a
direct line with the rest of
the art world, nationally and
internationally. "
"And by 'art' world." he
added, "I refer not only to
painting and sculpture but
all the related arts, such as
architecture, music, dance,
films, the crafts and related
design fields."
Other roles of an art mu
seum, he believes, are certain
sped of art education In ac
company museum exhibi
tions, an active Interest in
city planning and beautifica
tinn, and a definite responsi
bility in presenting excel
lence in a world that is filled
with visual expression of
every level, some of it not so
good.
"A formidable task, per
haps," he admits, "hut one
necessary in any rnmmunity
that proposes to call itself
progressive."
