WALKER ART GALLERY, LIVERPOOL, AUTUMN EXHIBITION, lg15
at the Leicester Galleries, inasmuch as all the
exhibitors are Artists under Arms. They are, in
fact, all members of the Artists’ Rifles (28th County
of London), a unit which has played an important
part in the present mobilisation as an Officers’
Training Corps. The group whose work in the
shape of paintings and etchings will figure at the
Leicester Galleries comprises Mr. Lee Hankey and
Mr. A. E. Cooper, both holding commissioned rank,
and Messrs. Montague Smyth, Maresco Pearce,Lance
Thackeray, Malcolm Osborne, Edgar L. Pattison,
James Thorpe, Gerald Ackermann, Handley Read,
W. P. Robins, Ernest Cole and F. Mason.
At the Fine Art Society’s Galleries during the
past few weeks the chief feature has been the
series of war cartoons by the well-known Dutch
artist, Mr. Louis Raemaekers, whose drawings,
executed most of them, we believe, for the
Amsterdam newspaper “ De Telegraaf,” and pub-
lished therein, have also some of them appeared in
many of our own journals. Collectively they form
286
the most scathing indictment of Prussian militarism
that has come from an artist’s pencil—an indict-
ment the more damning as being the work not of
a partisan but a neutral—and a neutral, too, who
is partly German by birth.
LIVERPOOL.—Although the authorities of
the Autumn Exhibition of Modern Art
adhere to the Royal Academy tradition,
—V it is with the important modifications
that the hanging is neither close nor high, that
sculpture, instead of being herded together until
the room it is in resembles an Italian image-boy’s
tray, is distributed in all the rooms of the exhi-
bition, and that the so-called minor arts are fully
represented. The first and second points are illus-
trated by the photograph of the first room (above),
especially the judicious and effective placing of
the sculpture. In the room beyond, of which a
glimpse is seen through the door, the Belgian
section, which was such a prominent feature of the
exhibition, was arranged.
