...recollection of the sad night in May, 1925, in the old Madison Square Garden, which was about to be demolished. There was Boxing Announcer Joe Humphreys, bellowing at the crowd with a genuine sob in his voice, delivering an ode to the Garden and the gilded copper nude that stood atop it: "Farewell to thee, O Temple of Fistiana, farewell to thee, O sweet Miss Diana...

...London last week, a widely heralded underground film called No. 4 had its world premiere, showing nothing but some 300 nude British buttocks, a fresh one every 15 seconds or so for 76 min utes. For sound track, there were the taped comments of the volunteers. "I'm a bit cynical about mine," said a girl who described herself as a model, "because it's worth money." The director was Miss Yoko Ono, 34, a Tokyo-born artist-composer and currently an entrepreneur of happenings in London. The premiere was a benefit for Britain's Institute...

...recurring lists of what is In and what is Out might have had difficulty making the Harvard Lampoon. A cover like the tear-stained photograph of John F. Kennedy, which ran less than a year after his assassination, was patently concocted for shock. Another cover showed a morose nude jammed, derriere-first, into a garbage can. The article it advertised-"The New American Woman: through at 21" -was so heavily rewritten (seemingly to fit the cover illustration) that Freelance Writer Harlan Ellison refused to let Esquire use his byline. The article described a pseudotypical Los Angeles woman, prone to suicide...

...century Spanish capes and courtyards were missing. Instead, singers in vaguely funereal costume drifted through bare spaces that seemed to recede into infinities of aquamarine. Massive bands of grey rock jutted around and above them. The eerie landscape was punctuated by spare, brooding pieces of sculpture: a huge, reclining nude in gleaming green; two spiky, dead-white trees; labyrinthine arch forms like vast bleached bones; a series of angular, menacing mummies...
