...only 'constant' was his bitter hatred of anything having to do with religion." ¶ Biographer Justino Fernandez: "Orozco is hard on God at the Day of Judgment, because he felt that the punishments meted out to sinful men were too severe." ¶ Dealer Inés Amor: "He hated mankind, if ever a man did. 'All Indians,' he used to say, 'are ugly.' Why was he bitter? Because of his life, his failures, his poverty, his obsessive inferiority complex." ¶ Writer Alma Reed: "He had compassion and humanity above all other painters...

...Which means, to me at least, that man can live his truth, his deepest truth, but cannot speak it. It is for this reason that love becomes the ultimate human answer to the ultimate human question. Love, in reason's terms, answers nothing. We say that Amor vincit omnia but in truth love conquers nothing-certainly not death-certainly not chance...

...Juan (pop. 400,000) sits on two islands between a bay and a lagoon. Its sights are blue-bricked streets, ancient masonry, white skyscrapers, rain-dappled, flamboyant trees, traffic jams of Fords, Chevies, Opels, Consuls, Taunuses and Vespa scooters. In the old city, hand-printed poems of amor on sale at 25? flutter from a clothespin in a dowdy doorway next to a modern furniture store whose neon sign shouts: "Use Nuestro Layaway Plan." But San Juan also has festering El Fanguito and neighboring swampland slums of stilted crackerbox shanties, partly cleared but still the home...

...novelty on the program was Falla's ballet music El Amor Brujo, the best known section of which is the Ritual Dance of Fire. Based on Spanish folk spirit, Falla's music is exotic, feverish, and sometimes haunting. Soloist Malama Providakes sang with an idiomatic flavor reminiscent of the great contralto Conchita Supervia, with a dark, full-blooded tone. There were several lovely Oboe solos from Cynthia Deery, while the Orchestra as a whole played with both fire and precision...

...leading characters, Venus and Amor, were well portrayed by Malama Providakes and Miss Raisz, and the Souls of the Heartless Women were acted by members of the Radcliffe Dance Group. The ballet was rather unsteady and hesitant, although thoroughly charming, while Venus and Pluto were not relaxed enough in their stage bearing. These imperfections, however, were outweighed by the general excellence of the production: the competent singing, the fine instrumental support, and the brilliant costumery, designed by Anne Hollander--all under the apt direction of Robert Beckwith. The setting, moreover, was very appropriate: the antique statuary and columnwork...
