McClelland is obviously interested in formal, traditional calligraphy. The exhibit includes "The Whale," an old English poem which he wrote out in insular uncial letters on a regular page layout. Both the language and the letters are alien--they could be written in Islamic script and have equivalent elegant linear formality. But the letterlines and page forms have a universal meaning independent of phonetics or linguistics. They be-speak exoticness, magnificence, and respect-compelling beauty...
TECHNOLOGY has devised a new nudity. No starlet could half-hide under bubbles in Babette Newburger's clear blown Plexiglas bathtub. The tub stands on four carved Plexiglas human legs at the Contemporary Crafts' Plastic as Plastic exhibit, which is the most gleamingly contemporary and pertinent of any in New York...

G. Pontus Hulten, 44, who as director of Stockholm's Moderna Museet staged one of the first kinetic art shows back...
Hulten's exhibit has plenty of jiggling junk sculptures and blithely bleeping electronic marvels. But it also demonstrates that the artist's love-hate relationship with the machine has a long history. Oldest items on display are Leonardo's drawings for a helicopter and a parachute. Newest are nine works selected by Hulten from entries to a contest sponsored by Experiments in Art and Technology (E.A.T.), an organization that strives to bring artists and technologists together...

The Brooklyn exhibit has three prizewinners, chosen by a jury of scientists. Interestingly, their three were among the nine Hulten had independently chosen. The jury's criterion: "That neither the artist nor the engineer alone could have achieved the results. Interaction must have preceded innovation...
