Notes

Original Toronto Star caption: Sculpture Kosso Eloul leans on one of his metal creations at rear of Marlborough Godard Gallery at 22 Hazelton Ave. Art critic Sol Littman says his huge rectangles threaten to break away and slide; glacier-like; into a sea below. Littman says there is pride in his monuments; too evident a refusal to pander to public taste. His work allows no ornaments; no graceful forms to charm and seduce the eye. But mystery is resolved when one looks into Eloul's background.
