...festival's Body Dreaming, process is all. An outdoor showcase of the body painting, initiation and men's ceremonies of the Yirrkala region of northeast Arnhem Land, it was a show more organic than organized.

It is no accident that a White House staffer once said, "He looks French." The Heinz Kerrys hang out on Nantucket and in Sun Valley, Idaho. They...
