Lucien Clergue is one of only three photographers to receive the French Legion of Honor award. (Henri Cartier-Bresson and André Kertész complete the triad.) Given this distinction, it’s quite astounding that a nascent private gallery like the Pierre Menard Gallery, at 10 Arrow St., would hold an extensive collection of his work. Yet the gallery’s exhibition of 84 of Clergue’s prints, on display through March 15, is notable for reasons other than its mere existence.

...chosen as the architect nearly a decade before the matter was settled, and he has produced a temple of culture even a banker could love.

To rightfully earn his pudding pot, Stiller had to don a bra, pink heels, and a blonde wig in a walk-off against a Hasty Pudding Theatricals actor, disguised as actor Owen Wilson, a Man of the Year wannabe. “Just like at home, honey...
...glass technique is something the fourth-generation kite maker learned from his father. For kite fighters it was the equivalent of graduating from bow and arrow to gunpowder. But increasingly there is a risk that the fighting kites are becoming too effective. For a while, those made with Pakistani nylon fishing line were all but impervious to attack. Then canny arms dealers started importing flexible, razor-sharp wire from China. The escalating threat of mutually assured destruction, according to Agha, widely recognized as the best kite fighter around, has taken the artistry out of the game. "Now it's like...
