The article concludes by mentioning an “Other Borrowings” section showcasing American folk art and ceramics from the Amherst College Museum of Art.
This article surveys several contemporary sculpture exhibitions in New York City:
Sears Sculpture (at the Burano Gallery): Features works by Emile Norman, a California artist known for intricate, fantastical sculptures made with materials like balsa wood and glass. Highlights include “Hound” and “Owl,” which blend abstraction with whimsical figurative elements.
Turano Sculpture (at the Janet Nessler Gallery): Showcases the work of Don Turano, whose abstract sculptures, often cast in metal, are described as powerful and evocative. His piece “City-God” is noted as a monumental work.
Fiore at Steumpfli (at the Brata Gallery): Reviews works by Fiore, whose “sculpture” is described as “unconventional” and often incorporates found objects like “safety pins,” “plastic ribbons,” and “glass.” The artist’s pieces are noted for their imaginative, almost narrative character.
“Later Romaulds” (at the Museum of Modern Art): Mentions the late Georges Romauld, known for figurative bronzes.
“Wodaer Work Shown” (at the Pennsylvania Academy of Fine Arts): Reviews the work of Helen Wodaer, described as non-objective and featuring a “brilliantly active use of color.”
The article emphasizes the growing prominence of sculptors in New York’s contemporary art scene, contrasting their work with the more traditional or decorative approaches of some painters.

Together, they illustrate the diversity and dynamism of the American art world on the cusp of the 1960s’ experimental movements.
