Show THE SALT LAKE TRIBUNE SUNDAY MORNING FEBRUARY Activities in Utah Artists' Colony Art and IDAHOAN OFFERS LOCAL SHOW s - fr vs vrfrffy rtTERPRETING for the Salt Lake Art public regions of the country are but little familiar and whose portrayal will Induce nostalgic longings In numerous others the Olaf Moller collection of twenty paintings which go on display at the Intermountain Art gallery Monday will form pne of the most attractive exhibitions of the season Mr Moller has most recently painted In the Jackson Hole country of Wyoming and Jhe Tetons are the subjects of several canvases but themes given him by Pennsylvania woodlands and Allegheny foothills where he worked while studying at the Pennsylvania Academy make up a large part of the show This group of pictures Introduces an Idaho artist who while a frequent exhibitor In art centers of the east and middle east has not before been presented In Salt Lake The merits of his work as demonstrated here however are such as to make his appearance welcome and to create an Interesting diversion for gallery patrons Mr Moller’s renditions of the Tetons are vigorously painted and of architectural strength his mountain forms have dimension and weight and grandeur But It Is a somewhat cold forbidding beauty that Is expressed as though the artist felt oppressed by the majesty of these towering granite structures On the other hand there is warmth and sympathetic understanding In his portrayals of the eastern landscape these canvases have an emotional quality that speaks to the heart ' f “'’ - A rrJ 'in' C $ ' has a haunting quality of poetic beauty" The ‘‘Pickering Creek Spring" Is another thnt leaves its Impression Mr Moller has caught the feeling of early spring days of new life in the trees whose fresh giecns are a delicate mist against the sky in the flowering shrub on the bank of the stream which seems to dance along— a freshness that ia accented by a ghost of a big tree occupying the center of the picture A splendid study of “The Willows" where a huge tree spreading its boughs over a thread of a brook makes a lovely pattern aeross a mellow landscape Is a Pennsylvania theme "In Chester County Pennsylvania” with Its sky of billowy clouds that cast their shadow over the foreground leaving the valley in soft light and "Late Afternoon Pennsylvania" — a canvas which took second landscape prize at an academy show — are equally charming compositions well balanced and rhythmical “The Dead Warrior” an Intriguing theme of a distant formation of the gray-blu- e range which resembles an outstretched form on a bier its face clouds hang motionless is one of Mr upturned to the sky where wing-lik- e Moller’ western canvases and his "American Matterhorns” a picture full of light is one of the most stirring among them Several accompanying ketches giving other studies of the northern Rockies a delightful genre of an old farmhouse on a hilltop surrounded by corn shocks and an autumn scene that charms help to make this show of interest And Mr Moller’s one "Still Life" utilizing the silver of the lowly onion with ex- blues of pottery and a copper tray is far from being the least among Suisite Nor can one fail to note the artistic frames that have been given these pictures which bespeak Mr Moller's ability in another direction as they are his own design and manufacture FLORENCE WARE
