(Knackstadt photo) Exhibit by Robert Bosworth Under Way in Los Angeles CD J Whin Kid 1495 Johnston and Stewart Tht Corner Shot Start CENTRAL AT MAIN An exhibit of the paintings , o: Hooert Bosworui, Mentora artist-architect, are now at the Ankrum gallery, Los Angeles. The show opened March 11, and the artist was honored at a reception that evening. Both Mr. Bosworth and his wife were In Los Angeles for the event. A booklet Issued for the event is illustrated with re productions of two of Mr Bosworth's watercolors, and comment by the art critic, Henry J. Seldis, originally published in the well-known magazine, Art in America. The quotation reads: 'A deep and successful search for the essence of na ture results In exquisitely compelling d r a w i n g s and washes by the Medford artist, Robert Bosworth, who has brought to the Northwest pre occupation with nature a po etic and imaginative vision that relates closely to Taoist thought. Still in his twenties, Bosworth is the most promis ing of the very young artists whose Interests will lend to strengthen the special idiom of Northwest art." Newspaper Comments Mr. Seldis also included comment on the show in an article in the Los Angeles Times devoted to the three one-man shows in Los An geles galleries, lie wrote "A dilferent, more transcendental sense oi onc-ness can be found in the delicate watcrcolor pan- ela and paintings by Oregon's Robert Bosworth. In his lyr ical celebration of the weeds of the seasons, this extraor dinary young artist-architect whose works first impressed me enormously on a North west visit two years ago, has been greatly enriching his un derstated comments. In style and thought Bosworth is close to the Orient, but he already has found a way very much his own and one that invites and rewards silent and lengthy contemplation. "Through the poetry of the inner eye he transforms but does not obliterate his obser vations of nature. Among my own favorite works In this most appealing exhibition are "Autumn Weed Reborn in Spring," "Elegy," "Weed scape" and "Thirst and the Inner Spring.' "In my view, Bosworth is among the most promising art ists introduced locally in some time." A number of the works have been sold since the ex hibit opened. Mr. Bosworth Is now on the faculty of the University of Oregon school of architecture, and spends half of every week in Eugene.
