...Thomas Bergen Collection of German Expressionist Drawings provides an opportunity to view Expressionism in the terms in which it progressively defined itself. Sixty-five drawings from Mr. Bergen's collection, selected by the Art Galleries of Notre Dame University, are presently on exhibit at Harvard University's Busch-Reisinger Museum and will subsequently travel to SUNY at Binghamton, Cornell University, and the University of Houston. Hanging around in academic circles seems appropriate to a collection which is scholarly in the best sense of the word; which culls from the stereotype the accurate insights hidden beneath connotations and vagueness.

Artoo Detoo, on the other hand, is a manly little machine. He responds to Threepio's complaints with a variety of impatient beeps and whistles and when busy, chirps and burbles like a mobile Mr. Coffee machine. When he gets zapped by Darth Vader, it is almost as traumatic for kids as that awful moment in Bambi when the little fawn's mother is slain by hunters. Fortunately for Artoo Detoo, however, not to mention the youngsters, there are replacement parts back in the shop...
