Lang will be exhibited at the Ferry Art Gallery in Centenary College, Hackettstown, beginning Sunday Oct.

1 and running through November 6. Lang's color lithographs and colographs show a distinct influence by the art of Asia and the Orient. He spent eight years in Japan painting, printing and teaching and researched Indian, South East Asian, Chinese, Korean and Japanese Art History. A graduate of the Tyler Art School, Temple University, Lang has exhibited in over 22 one-man shows and is represented in many city and university museums, as well as foreign U.S. embassies around the world.

Lang is presently a lecturer in Fine Arts and Art History at La Salle College, Philadelphia. A reception for Lang was held Sunday, Oct. 1, from 3-5 p.m. The gallery is open 9a.m. to 5 p.m.

The program will begin at 8 p.m. in the SAA studio located in the Essex Building at 18 Claremont Road, Bernardsville.

Button, a modem realist, is one of the foremost "Cityscape" artists in the country. His works have been presented at many one-man shows at Tibor de Nagy, Kornblee and Fischbach Galleries in New York. His works are included in the collections of the Museum of Modern Art, Art Institute of Chicago and the Hirshhorn Museum. He has also taught at such universities as Swarthmore and Cornell. The public is invited to attend this presentation.

to 5 p.m., at the Association. Artists who have not received entry forms will find them at the receiving desk or may call 766-6442. Two works may be submitted by each artist. Many contemporary artists concentrate on color and pattern and follow the example of the colorists, painters who construct their paintings through color contrasts and juxtaposition of colors. Not so Carroll N.

Jones III of Summit who is currently exhibiting in the Mini- Gallery, on the second floor of the Newark Museum. His pencil drawings of architectural details of homes porches, bay windows, barn doors, formal entrance doors, and simple hinges, are executed with a simplicity and complete mastery of medium. As does a good photographer, Jones also achieves an amazing sharpness in his lights and darks and variations within his greys. In his drawings there is a fine line between the real and the unreal. His studies of a door and window 5" and "Untitled No.

become abstract entities by themselves, divorced from their surroundings. His whites are so white, and darks so dark that it almost takes ones breath away. One marvels at the contrasts in his large drawing, "Convent Station Day." In this drawing, the artist zeros in on a section of an old Victorian house, depicting with precision its large bay window with cornices, the shadows cast on the white clapboard siding of the house, and the leaves on the tree in front of the house, which flutter softly in the breeze. He may emphasize the contrast of vertical and parallel lines and shadows on a front door, side windows and front porch bench in Chappaquidick Moring," or may concentrate on the delicate lines of a clam shell, or the details of a rusty horse shoe used to fasten a rickety barn door. An artists who until recently supported himself by doing commissioned penciled portraits, Jones captures in sensitive detail the insecurity and tentativeness of a teenage boy in "Leaving Home." Jones follows in the realistic tradition of his artist father and teacher, Carroll N.

Jones Jr. From him he has learned his disciplined approach to art, the theory of light and shade and study of form. He has continued his studies at the New York Phoenix School of Design and the Hartford Art School. His work has recently received notable awards in reputable juried exhibits. Rumor has it that Jones is giving up pencil drawing and going to concentrate on oil painting.

This, to my mind, would be a great loss to the viewing public. The exhibit, which opened Sept. 17, will continue through Oct. 22. In the Court and South Gallery of the Museum one can also visit an excellent exhibit, "Berber, Moor Bedouin: The Cultures of North Africa." "Many of the artifacts from Egypt, Tunisia, Morocco and Algeria were collected by the Museum's founder, John Cotton Dana, on two Italian and American Food A Wines ROUTE 202, BERNARDSVILLE 766-2393 OPEN 7 DAYS A WEEK THE THEATRE ROOM GIANT SCREEN Monday Night Football Fri.

From Egypt, there is a complete Bedouin tent, a velvet covered donkey saddle, goatskin water bag and brass cups of a water vendor. Many works reflect Arabian, Spanish, French, Turkish and Jewish influences.

The influence of the traditional geometric designs of the Berbers is evident in Moroccan tent hangings and in a group of textiles, pottery and jewelry from Algeria. Particularly impressive are the Bedouin tent, the corner of an Algerian bazaar, complete with stalls of cloth and copper merchants; and an interior room of a well-to-do Algerian home. This exhibit will remain through Oct. 9. Still another exhibit is one of paintings, drawings and sculpture by members of Artists Equity Association of New Jersey in the Community Gallery.

Of special note are an intaglio relief by Dorothy Cochran; a geometric abstraction by Marlene Letiker; a nostalgic and eerie photo-realistic painting by Robert Anderson; an intricate collograph print by Jean Schonwalter and a realistic acrylic by Barbara Minch. Artists Equity will remain through Oct. 15. On Oct. 12 at the Museum, we can look forward to the first of four fall exhibitions of 20th century art, "Geometric Abstraction and Related Works from the Collection," which will focus on abstract artists of the 1930's and 40's.
