...brass band, the British punk band Toy Dolls and a Peking opera performance. When the shows end, DJs spin in Akropolis' basement bars. There is also a restaurant, a caf? and a picture gallery. But there is another reason to visit the club: Frantisek Skala, an eccentric Czech salvage artist, designed the club's labyrinthine interiors. A perfectionist who rarely exhibits, Skala spent five years outfitting Akropolis with his eclectic vision that examines the mystery in ordinary objects and spaces...

His pretty face and early death have made him a cult hero, while his songs--or one of his songs--have turned him into TV's hottest sound-track artist, the bard of the Very Special Episode.

...Most of the town's 300 people are a red-dirt block away at the Pintupi Homelands Health Service, checking out their art movement's latest venture. Papunya Tula - a name suggested to Bardon by artist Charlie Tararu - is Pintupi for "honey ant meeting place," and on Nov. 11, a meeting place it is.
