the Art Workshop Gallery, 66 Fifth Ave., is variously breeze- light . and clay-heavy, Drawings and watercolors of wild flowers and grasses, coast scenes and trees, are crisp with the artist’s ability to make a satisfying composition of the Insignificant, with the B ti|d l^ informality and clarity , of approach o f ' the Japanese. In graphics however, the studied ap­proach becomes consciously la­bored—a derivatively abstract lUU life, and studies of Mexican peas­ants, become as heavy and lack­lustre as the dull tones of black. An exception is "Walk—Do Not Run," a grey and white graphic in which the descending steps are simply abstracted with clear di­rection.

« • •Having studied the "lost" art of

casting bronze from wax, Greek sculptor G. Koras, as seen in his first one-man show in the United S tkes, a t the Brata, 69 E. 10th St.,'exploits the agile visual quall- tiies of the technique. Thin twists of metal reach and writhe as Me­dusa’s snakes, or nighttime forest twigs (indeed, the profusion of sculpture gave me a sense of ad­vancing claustrophobia). The tech­nique facilitates Koras’ method of creating a visual whole of a hollow abstract piece. The hollowness, sometimes masterly, is well within the disillusioned vein of "New
