...only there had been more focus on quality and not just quantity, on changing the substance of the Boys' sound and not just making slight alterations in their style. The Boys' vocals remain both wispy and overdone - kind of like their facial hair - and none of the songs seem deeply felt. Backstreet's doing nothing that other contemporary vocal groups haven't done better: Jodeci had more personality, Blackstreet had better material, Boyz II Men are better singers. And, going back a bit, Backstreet has never recorded a song as soulful as the Doobie Brothers' "What a Fool Believes...
...pinks and magentas, the images more closely resemble photographic afterimages, as fleeting and spectral as memory itself. In yet another work, she merges silk-screens of her grandmother's face with those of various fossils, the two sometimes colliding in humorously grotesque ways-a scorpion husk masquerades as a facial lesion, a trilobite as eyeglasses...
...exploded "Contact Sheet Self-Portraits," by the local photographer Karl Baden, depict storms of skin, dissociated from their normal facial placement and set against blank sky backgrounds. Each picture in the set of 35 on each contact sheet shows a minute part of Baden's face. Baden rearranges these segments-mouth, nose and eyes repeat in a row, are wrongly placed, or are not there at all. In one portrait, the flesh pulls and pushes apart like an epidermal big bang. Another print plays on the truism that "no man is an island," shoving all the flesh into the center...
...scenes, academics Hannah Jarvis (Megan Robertson '04), the quiet, shrewd, studious scholar, and Bernard Nightingale (John Arnold, a professional), the arrogant, flamboyant publicity-monger, spar with each other in even more perfectly chosen accoutrements. Jarvis wears flats and a baggy sweater, Nightingale a tailored three-piece suit and elaborate facial hair. The production's selection of properties, which range from a brace of hunting pistols in the past to a humorously situated liter of Tanqueray in the present, rounds out the immense visual appeal of this Arcadia, the fact of which is quite an accomplishment for director Patrick Demers precisely...
...gifted in hysterical antics. His outlandish gestures and quick comebacks matched his hot pink shirt and shoes and caused his fellow cast members to lose their straight faces. Richard Snee, playing the role of antiques dealer Edward Lawrence, became more animated as time went on contributing many amusing sarcastic facial expressions to the show and retorts to the audience. Chandra Pieragostini could have done much more with her character, Tony's assistant, Barbara DeMarco. She seemed a rather silent sidekick in a role that could very easily have been more dominating and flamboyant...
