...Albee and an opera by Belgium's Henri Pousseur, the first U.S. performances of new works by Penderecki and Greek-born lannis Xenakis, a new movie by Underground Mogul Jonas Mekas, John Barth reading his new novella aloud, and lectures by City Planner Constantinos Doxiadis and Designer Buckminster Fuller. The whole shebang got under way last week with a display of 300 constructivist paintings and sculptures called "Plus by Minus: Today's Half-Century" at the Albright-Knox Gallery (see color opposite...
...eight years ago, 40 stores made a good-size center," says Detroit Developer Alfred Taubman. "Today, we want a minimum of 80 stores and average from 125 to 150." That puts a premium on compact use of land. To squeeze a potentially rival department store (Stix, Baer & Fuller) into their Crestwood Plaza near St. Louis, Developers Louis and Milton Zorensky erected a building on stilts above the parking lot.

Like all human performers, the group had its moments of weakness: sloppy ensemble, faulty intonation, a tendency (especially among the men) to expend force at the beginning of a phrase and then be unable to carry it through to the end. But Bach's voice writing, though beautiful, is quite impossible to perform, and the group has to be admired for its accomplishment. The performance was neither too fussily "authentic" nor embarrassingly emotive...
