...Nude Affirmations. The primary reality could once be fairly stated as what one sees in nature. But the retina of modern man is deluged with a thousand images that are themselves manmade, not the least of which flash from the television screen. To be true to reality means to include such images; so what is more logical than to tuck a TV screen into a painting. Or at least so thinks Tom Wesselmann, 34, who fiddles with the girl who doesn't exist, the supersex symbol, the Great American Nude, and sets her in homey seraglio scenes decorated with...
...pull a lousy burglary and I wind up killing two girls." Needing money for a heroin fix, Robles said he entered the girls' East Side Manhattan apartment through an open window, picked up two kitchen knives and started prowling around.

Lindsay eventually carried his activities beyond the beach; he continued to seek hands to shake among a few startled citizens while he was nude in the dressing-room shower...
Artzybasheff's art is dominated by his famous anthropomorphic machines and his reified visions of various pretensions, neuroses and complexes in sometimes nightmarish forms. But just about anything could set off Artzy's imagination. A Nude with a Snood is his interpretation of an unfathomable phrase overheard at a cocktail party; a primitive piece of sculpture called Connecticut African came from bits of wood picked up in the barn of his Connecticut farm. Artzybasheff's deep hate of tyranny is exemplified in the show by the extraordinary swastika shapes into which he twisted his caricatures...
