...believe that art should be explicit," says Balcomb Greene. "It should be suggestive and ambiguous so that the viewer has to enter in." Last week at a retrospective exhibition at the Whitney Museum in Manhattan viewers could see how magic Greene's ambiguity has been.

The only solution, his doctor tells him, is to take her across the zoning line in his car.
