...DOCUMENTARY: In Kienholz on Exhibit, by June Steel, of U.C.L.A., the camera roams for a leisurely 21 minutes over an exhibit at the Los Angeles County Museum by Sculptor Edward Kienholz (TIME, April 8, 1966).

In their own way, his fragile panels and boxes, smeared with black wax and ornamented with tarnished jewelry, Victorian wallpaper, girlie postcards and other detritus, shock and edify much as does a scabrous Matthias Grunewald crucifixion, or the death's-head kept as a memento mori by medieval princes...
