...from a West German political prisoner who claimed to have been "unfairly and wrongly" convicted by her countrymen in a 1951 war crimes trial, members of the European Commission on Human Rights not only rejected the plea but also damned it as a "manifest abuse" of their time. The appel lant: Lifer Use Koch, 54, better known during World War II as the "Bitch of Buchenwald...

Three of the reproductions are in color. Eisenhower is one. Willem de Kooning's polyschizoid Marilyn Monroe is another, into which much can be read. The catalogue ends with the aggressive reds, oranges, and yellows of Karel Appel's Dizzy Gillespie, in which one can hear the searing screams of the trumpeter's high F. It would be hard to think of a better bargain than this publication; it well merits a permanent place on one's shelves...

...Appel, painting is "a battle." He pops his colors directly out of the tube, smears them around with fingers, palette knife, and occasionally a brush. "I am interested in force," says he, "not esthetics." When the heavy, screaming colors look curdled enough, Appel appends a title, Head in the Mountains, Smiling Grasshopper, Personage with Parrot. Where is the head, the grasshopper, the parrot, or the woman and the ostrich? "For me," Appel once explained, "painting is destroying what I have done before...
