...their collective importance. Seldom old-fogy, often bold, they are oftener members of a school, children of an era, than unmistakable individuals. Attesting the show's variety are such pictures as Benton's quiet, lonesome Conversation; Doris Lee's whimsical, clever Holiday (see cut); Joe Hirsch's Two Men (see cut) which, using a very broad, low canvas, catches breadthwise the gaunt intensity of two workers; Jack Levine's Rouault-like Night Scene, where the ruddy heads and hands of the two figures emerge from a blue-black murk like blazing coals...
