It was a courageous move on the part of the museum. For very few of us, I would imagine, are comfortable...
...last week. They were protesting Director Thomas P. F. Hoving's choice of material for "Harlem On My Mind," an exhibition devoted to "the cultural capital of Black America, 1900-1968." The show contained no paintings by black artists - or, for that matter, by white artists. Organized by Allon Schoener, Visual Arts Di rector of the N. Y. State Council on the Arts and a white man, with Negro Audio Engineer Donald Harper and Negro Photographer Reginald McGhee, it filled 14 of the Met's galleries with 600 photographic blowups and slides, plus videotapes and recordings...
