...profound figure behind the mic. But none of the five actors in “Spalding Gray: Stories Left to Tell,” performed at the Institute of Contemporary Art Thursday through Sunday, were Spalding Gray. A middle-aged woman, a man with a foreign accent, and the colorful ex-mayor of Providence Vincent A. “Buddy” Cianci, Jr., all stepped in to read Gray’s words. Yet this physical disparity was inconsequential; Gray’s words retained their appeal, capturing his life with a familiar poignancy.After a long struggle with depression...

Black boots, peeking out from under the sheet, sparkle like the Wicked Witch’s red footwear in the “The Wizard of Oz.” The smell of rot and formaldehyde permeates the entire...
...supposed to look like. In the latest video from his Auto-Tune drenched album “808s and Heartbreak,” Kanye plays the poor-little-rich-rapper card while simultaneously re-enacting his latest acid trip. The video opens with West in sunglasses and a color-block sweater—think Will Smith on “Fresh Prince of Bel-Air”—against a dark background which unexpectedly starbursts into sensory-overload. Wildly colorful images are digitized and distorted, stuttering choppily from frame to pixilated frame. Weak-stomached watchers beware...
