...convey all this is a formidable, albeit irresistible, challenge for an actress. Two of the current attempts are strikingly successful. Eileen Atkins turns Vivat, Bolt's ponderous high school history pageant, into exciting drama, with an Elizabeth of coruscating wit and feline sensuality. Glenda Jackson, in Elizabeth R, is more subtle, but equally brilliant, with an astonishing ability to convey mood and nuance and to switch from a purr to a roar.

The photographs in the exhibit show exactly how he solved some of these architectural problems: the walls of all glass, often called glass-curtain walls (as in the Fagus Shoe-Last Factory, 1911), convey an airiness and transparency never before attributed to building structures; the modular furniture and even buildings, like the faculty-housing for Dessau Bauhaus, are each really identical, but are built as mirror-image units, and are further differentiated by being placed at 90 degree angles...
