...comes to legal representation? In anticipation of a weapons-felony indictment last week, Combs signed up attorneys Benjamin Brafman--who represented Mob turncoat Sammy ("the Bull") Gravano--and JOHNNIE COCHRAN (you may remember his work with a certain former football player).

He was still in his 20s when he began writing art criticism, and his first reaction to "radical" Modernism, which hit him in the 1913 Armory Show, was one of utter horror--Cezanne and Van Gogh were "unbalanced fanatics," Cubism "simply ridiculous," Matisse "insanely, repulsively depraved...
