Busy Month
July has been a busy month. Meetings held at the Artists Archives of the Western Reserve with Suzan Kraus and William Martin Jean and at the Cleveland Institute of Art with Margaret Gudbranson and Michael Kinsella
at the Cleveland Institute of Art were encouraging and helpful. Ms. Kraus stated "It would be an honor to host the works of (Anthony Eterovich)
at the Archives." We are in the process of finding many press clippings that illuminate and highlight the successful
career of Mr. Eterovich. Highlights include La Revue Moderne des arts et de la vie, the New York Times and the Cleveland
Plain Dealer.

The Always Running Art Critic, oil, 60 |
"Always feeling kingly, with righteous opinions, he finds himself constantly
on the run - is there a cutting edge out there? Where? Echoes of the past? What yardstick to apply? Will flying messengers
give him a clue? On what pedestal should he place it? With lyrical drawing and contrasting color, while adjusting his
bow tie with one hand, the other hand moves on the ruler for a numbers rating system. Echoes of early to present pay masters
are in his mind from which he projects future evaluations."
