"CUBISM 1910-1912," at the Sidney Janis Gallery (to February 4) will rank as one of the two or three finest gallery presentations of the entire season. About thirty carefully chosen canvases, borrowed from European as well as American sources, pinpoint the moment of greatest advance of the most revolutionary art style in twentieth-century painting. The early stage of cubism transformed the outer surface of an object; the so-called analytic phase probed far more deeply. In It, outer surface changes gave way to an X-ray-like depth and transparency.
