In 1974 the 19-year-old son of Cuban immigrants became the first American male to win a gold medal at the International Ballet Competition.

It was so clearly the inside that counted. Prim boys...

Drawn out of the museum’s archives, these seven pieces from contemporary German-speaking Europe feature concepts of “layering,” according to the exhibit description.
