PHOTO-SECESSION NOTES.
THE Pamela Colman Smith exhibition of drawings referred to
elsewhere was originally announced to run ten days. The ex-
ceptional interest it aroused, together with the urgent requests
coming from all sides for an extension of time, eventually
resulted in the exhibition's being prolonged eight days. In
spite of the twenty days of continuous bad weather, over
2,200 people visited the galleries; these included art critics,
art dealers, teachers at the art institutes, art pupils, painters,
sculptors, connoisseurs, and enthusiasts generally, while photographers
were but sparsely represented. Thirty-three of the drawings found their
way into some of the best collections in New York.
Following the above exhibition the Little Galleries were occupied by
the work of Baron A. de Meyer, of London, and of George H. Seeley,
Stockbridge, Mass., Fellow of the Photo-Secession. Each photographer was
represented by twenty-three prints. Although it was a severe test for these
pictures to be hung after the exceptionally imaginative work of Miss Smith,
they well sustained the prestige of the galleries. The exhibition is still open
as we go to press.
The following exhibitions at the Photo-Secession Galleries are announced:
February eighteenth to March sixth, Miss Alice Boughton, Mr. William B.
Dyer, and Mr. C. Yarnall Abbott. March eighth to March twenty-sixth,
Mr. Alvin Langdon Coburn, who will have returned from London before
that date. There are also planned exhibitions of the newer work of Mr. F.
Holland Day; a collection of new French work; an exhibition of the work
of Mr. Frederick W. Pratt, and of that of Mr. Joseph T. Keiley. The
season will close with the end of April.
From many parts of the world the Photo-Secession has received invita-
tions to contribute collections to the various exhibitions. In fact, since May,
1906, no fewer than 197 such requests have been received by the Director-
from Vienna, Berlin, Paris, London, Dublin, St. Louis, etc., etc. For many
years the Photo-Secession has been a faithful contributor to virtually every
important foreign exhibition, and expects, in the near future, to become so
again. But as it is concentrating its energies on a series of home exhibits in
the Little Galleries, and as it is impossible to favor the few without slight-
ing the many, it has been deemed wisest not to accept any invitation for the
time being.
