Reflectively, Carl Frederick Reuterswärd has polished a bronze tablet, and with an imitation of Rembrandt's signature on it, spelled out "Remembrandt." As the viewer gazes at it, his reflection becomes a part of the picture, suggesting that all art is based on the interplay between reality and the memory of how artists in ages past have dealt with the problem...
...atonality to music. His work is total abstraction, es chewing the cliches and conventions of gesture, costume and music by which both ballet and modern dance seek to evoke moods, emotions and dramatic climaxes. Whatever emotions Cunningham's audiences feel are entirely in dividual.

Above all, it integrates the individual's search for an ideological form, for the valid, underlying rituals of our society in an attempt to counteract the meaninglessness and vagueness of society's conventions and values. [Ritual is used in the sense that Erikson describes ritualization: a mutually accepted interplay between at least two persons who repeat it at intervals and in recurrent contexts and which has an adaptive value for the go of each participant--a condition fully met by the way a mother and baby greet each other in the morning. From this earliest ritual, Erikson traces...
