In Johnny Hart's B.C., indolent cavemen, sharpshooting anteaters and terrified ants make droll comments on the modern world. In Mell Lazarus' Miss Peach, megacephalic, supersophisticated school tots show up their elders' ignorance.

Lothar Fischer sculpts figures that resemble the inscrutable distortions of a first-grader's picture of teacher. Painter Heimrad Prem piles hills and houses in pell-mell landscapes, colors them pink. Hans-Peter Zimmer paints big green frogs that seem to have something to croak about. Helmut Sturm's Romeo and Juliet embrace in a tangled orgy of lines, their faces hidden by a bright red blush.
