Art Show Lacking In Originality At Cedar Rapids Center
A Cedar Rapids Art Center exhibition features technically strong works but thin originality. Critics note heavy Matisse influence across pieces by Humbert Albrizio, Phil Scolaro, Joseph Patrick, Genie Patrick, and others, with subtle nods to Degas Cezanne Ingres and expressionism. The review highlights landscapes, nudes, and abstract textures, comparing pieces like Writing a Letter and Island Cove to historic styles while praising formal craft.

Island Cove and Wyeth inspired landscapes exhibit a fading realism
The gallery show features neo realist style in Andrew Wyeth like landscapes of Iowa and other places, with abundant pen and ink detail that may dampen spontaneity. A gallery spokesman noted strong sales at opening on the 19th, yet buyers seeking freshness are advised to look elsewhere. The clipping also urges pent up energy release through physical activity and mentions KDKA's 1920 radio broadcast and Perry's polar discovery confirmation in 1909.
