...Murder Cave. Not all environ ments contain figurative art. Buffalo's recent "Second Festival of the Arts Today," staged at the Albright-Knox Gallery (TIME, March 15), included five abstract environments. Drollest among them was the Pneumatic Garden of Eden, created by M.I.T.'s Otto Piene, in which huge, air-filled plastic tubes waved in the air like undersea coral growths in a darkened room lit at shin level by slowly flashing lights. Delicately disturbing was Lucas Samaras' Mirrored Room No. 2, part of the Albright's permanent collection. The room (see overleaf) was plated with...
...Chumley). Twelvetrees has his own problem; he surreptitiously takes photographs of himself making love to girlfriend Samantha Quentin (Maeve Kinkead). And Blaine is afraid to approach Anastasia. He keeps watch from a phone booth near her apartment, smoking cigarettes and counting the gangbusters who pass in and out of Eden's Gates. Finally he pockets his dime and acts.

In primitive cultures, boys become men immediately upon surviving harsh rites of passage. In agrarian societies, a hard-working farmer's son rapidly becomes a certified adult. Until recently, puberty occurred at about 14 or 15, marriage two or three years later. The word "teenager" was inconceivable for such 17-year-old adults as Joan of Arc or Surveyor George Washington. In the 18th century, many upper-class Englishmen impressively taught their eldest sons...
