Visible at Harvard attests to the capacity of universities to provide alternatives to mainstream galleries and museums. The exhibits of actual works, a feature of museums and galleries, usually depend on the NEA and/or corporations to cover enormous insurance and shipping costs. The use of two slide projectors for Visible is a creative solution to the problem that the university is not free from the political/economic constraints of the Reagan-Bush era. Many of the individuals who participated in this project did so because its organization and format are a critique of "blockbuster exhibitions" often compromised in terms of content...

"If they have to crack down in lots of places," says an analyst in Washington, "that could create a revolutionary situation." The Soviet people can still...
