PHOTOGRAPHY also serves humor. In "Miss American Icon" he "throws" photographs of a cross, and a star-shaped cutout of a face into a funny hand-scrawled wastebasket. The caption for this clever mixture of media is "old symbols...
...this is his first appearance as a TIME cover artist, Wheeler, 33, considers himself an alumnus of Time Inc. Not long after he graduated from Brooklyn's Pratt Institute, he went to work for LIFE. While there, he designed the series of advertisements that showed the LIFE logotype cutout of a long catalogue of items: IBM cards, theater tickets, miniature flags. Those Wheeler cutouts are now in the collections of Manhattan's Museum of Modern Art and the Metropolitan Museum...
...latest work, Samaras has in effect dismantled the reliquary. He has ranged twelve or 18 mutants of the same relic-for example, a knife-in a clear Plexiglas case, calling the group "transformations." At the same time, he has not entirely abandoned books and boxes. Painted cutout silhouettes of the latter hang in their own black frames, subtly suggesting the ax about to fall.

And right near by sat a green and cream Sopwith Camel-the type that downed the Red Baron-with a cutout figure of that daredevil, Snoopy, as the Baron's fearless foe, everyone surely knows. The occasion: an auction of 29 veteran and vintage planes, from a tricycle-wheeled 1910 Parker Curtiss Pusher to such recent classics as World War II fighters...
...whom its statue is meant to represent. Manhattan's New York University announced last week that a 60-ton, 36-ft-high Picasso will be erected in its Washington Square Center apartment complex, designed by I. M. Pei & Partners. The model for it is a 1954 painted metal cutout bust currently on display at Manhattan's Museum of Modern Art as part of its Picasso sculpture show (TIME, Oct. 20), for which Picasso used a pony-tailed girl named Sylvette David. The N.Y.U. version will be cast in black Norwegian basalt aggregate with a "skin" of buff-colored...
