Author/Editor: ALLEN Frederick Lewis
Publisher: Harper's Magazine
Place Published: New York
Year: 1948
Date & Collation: 1948 (January) 95-96 (No Moore illus)
Description: Comment on a recent exhibition at the British American Art Center, New York, see 0008594, of Ascher silk squares. Discusses statements made by Sacheverell Sitwell. Debates whether or not the squares can be considered art or design, and whether this was in the artist's mind; I had the feeling that Matisse and Moore, and some of the others, would be pleased to have their scaves produced inexpensively by the thousands for a great many people to use and enjoy - and that some of the others had their eye on the collector's market. No illus.
