Notes
Original Toronto Star caption: Five American artists who fled their homeland have achieved prominence in Toronto: Standing Dan Solomon (left) and Richard Sturm; seated (from left); Brenda Siegel and Martha and Thomas Henrickson. Their rejection of America extends to American art; and the one thing that bothers them about Toronto artists is their admiration of New York art. New York artists have copped out; says Thomas Henrickson.
