capacities of the medium which the

more prominent contributors must be

The New English Art Club arranged a
retrospective exhibition last month in the
Spring Gardens Gallery—formerly part of
the offices of the London County Council
—which is the latest addition to the
exhibition places available in London.
The intention of the show was to illus-
trate the history of the club, and by
gathering works by past and present
members to give an idea of the part it has
played in the art of our time. In past
years the club was more catholic in its
policy than it is to-day, and through it
have passed, as members or exhibitors, a
very large number of well-known artists
who have found their way into the
Academy and other societies. The collec-
tion showed served its purpose well, and
was not only historically interesting but
noteworthy, too, as a display of sound
modern art. It induced, perhaps, certain
regrets that the club should not be so
tolerant to-day as it was years ago, and
that it should not have the breadth of
outlook by which it was formerly distin-
guished, a a a a 0
Other exhibitions which have to be
recorded are the series of water-colours

Gallery ; a show of etchings and woodcuts
by various artists at the Redfern Gallery,
