...violence in my work." There has also been a strong strain of sensuality. Three years ago, at the age of 25, Whiteley established himself in the vanguard of young London painters (TIME, Oct. 9, 1964) with one Baconesque series of 25 paintings, all showing his pretty young wife nude in the bath, plus another series depicting the passionate antics of Sex Murderer John Christie. His latest show at Marlborough New London Gallery is difficult to characterize. Is it expressionist? Surrealist? Pop? Funk? Hard to say, but critics find Whiteley's new work infinitely greater in depth and sophistication...
...candidates popped up like mushrooms; 18 in all put up the unusually low $30 filing fee and ten-signature petition to qualify for the Nov. 7 race. Wilhelm Joerres, a sometime hairdresser and lifeguard, promised that if elected he would spend his first week in City Hall in the nude. Restaurateur Robert le Bugle campaigned as the candidate for "peace, love, happiness."

It is a continuation of the second act curtain of Albee's Tiny Alice, in which Irene Worth, shielded from the audience by her robe, seemingly displayed her nude body to John Gielgud, who dropped to his knees before her while she uttered orgiastic cries. Both plays might have been more happily served by all-male casts...
...produced by a laser beam (in the case of the red lines) and a mercury-vapor lamp (for the white). "Dark" was dreamed up by Robert Whitman, 32, an artist whose reputation in Manhattan art circles rests on his theater happenings and "cinema sculptures," including a movie of a nude taking a shower. Whitman is fascinated by the fourth dimension, and, to work through his newest analysis of it, he called on the services of two Bell Telephone Laboratories engineers, Eric Rawson and Larry Heilos. They showed him how laser beams, controlled by motorized projectors, could produce the desired effect...
