...become the new academism at Harvard and MIT, where Kepes still teaches, Bauhaus style lectures will dwell on the physical perception of color rather than a particular style of painting. Carpenter Center's introductory courses are well stocked with Jose Albert's systematic color studies and laszlo Moholy Nagy's experiments with plexiglass and other transparent materials. Cambridge's resources seem too much to ignore--but enough regrets...
HENRY HOLMES SMITH, professor of photography at Indiana University, friend of Laszlo Moholy-Nagy, renowned avant-garde photographer, and an explorer and experimenter in his own photography, once warned against too quickly dismissing the unconventional and unfamiliar photograph as a mere gimmick.

It cranks out news releases for some 600 ethnic newspapers around the U.S. Whenever possible, the releases are in English. "We want to unite, we don't want to divide," says Laszlo Pasztor, the council director and a Hungarian freedom fighter who fled to the U.S. when the Soviets invaded in 1956. "The English language is a strong, binding force." Nevertheless, translation is provided for any nationality that would rather have its politics in its native tongue. There is also an ample collection of foreign-language tapes...
