...artists shown, 39% were born or are living in the U.S. But Documenta makes no case for a U.S. monopoly on styles. The sprightly satires of Britons Richard Hamilton and David Hockney hang in the same gallery with their better-known U.S. pop equivalents, such as Tom Wesselmann and Robert Indiana. Indeed, it is Documenta's unity that last week prompted Sculptress Louise Nevelson to remark: "Usually an artist works in loneliness. But here, one suddenly experiences the kinship one always suspects one might have with the rest of the artistic world...

...square-looking small car, with Hawklike grille, called the Lark. It is 175 in. long (v. 209.1 in. for the '58 Chevy), but roomy inside because the company saved space by slicing down the front end and the rear bustle. "Everybody likes the pictures," said Salesman Jim Hockney of Manhattan's Studebaker-Packard Salon Inc. "We have orders, with deposits, for 40 cars-which is just 39 more than we had last year at this time." The new American Motors Rambler is almost the same as the '58 model, which rang up a company-saving...
