Among these several pieces are a group of photographs which document protests scenes. These pictures more than anything else in the exhibit put the artwork within the political realm. As these pictures flash between sculptures and prints we are reminded that this is an exhibit of lesbian art, highlighting a particular marginalized group's means of expression...
...process, which, when combined with "selective binding," permits our magazine (and direct mail) to be aimed at readers with almost intimate accuracy. Our advertisers, in fact, have used this printing capability to send personalized messages to our wide range of subscribers.

The collection of drawings, in pastel, watercolor and pencil, was assembled by Le Corbusier himself with the goal of representing the breadth and spirit of his pictorial work. This goal is admirably realized and results in an exhibit which is both dynamic and unified. Almost without exception, each individual piece is worthy of close inspection. But Marriage of Contours also displays a temporal progression in the style of this vibrant artist. The exhibit is an education...
