What Mr. Siegel does is to build a three-dimensional environment, complete with many a nicety of perspective, in which freestanding sculptural elements are combined with both painting and photography (and in one case some rather mischievous glass). The environment comes in a shallow box that might be a model theater, but is perfectly complete in itself. The protagonist in every case is a humanized starfish, long and elegant of limb, that runs, dances and thinks things over. Its adventures are never repeated. As a running gag it could be cute, but in many cases the starfish is incidental to the main action, which lies rather in the simulation of sea and sky, landscape and domestic architecture. In ''Exile,'' the starfish for once swells to an enormous size, only to lie flat and bloated on the floor, separated by a grille from its natural habitat and with no hope of getting out of its cheerless and metallic pen. But in most of these constructions the starfish has a very good time, and so do we. (Through May 2.)
