These northern Europeans, who claim as ancestors both such German expressionists as Emil Nolde and the Norwegian Edvard Munch, represent an increasingly individual point of view. Their kind of psychic improvisation takes its cue from dense color and tightly woven forest. Fundamentally passionate paint slingers, they are equally adept with lithographs, a sampling of which went on view last week in Manhattan's Lefebre Gallery. A few, such as Guggenheim International Prizewinner Karel Appel, are well known; others less publicized...
Nowhere else in Europe does good design make itself so universally felt.

In Hollywood last week, it was Jack Lemmon, writer at Universal Pictures, and his secretary, played by his handsome wife, Felicia Farr. Entering his office in a very low-cut dress...
...city is not just Bavaria's capital and Germany's third largest city (after Berlin and Hamburg). It is Elysium on the Isar River - a steep-roofed, cobblestoned corner of heaven awash with foamy Doppelbier and festooned in Weisswurstle, the pale, succulent sausage that Münchners munch by the mile...
