...after, Gonzalez-Torres' work was widely circulated around the museum world. But it was a brief life, a relatively small output, and it's been seen quite a bit. So there's no sense of surprise or discovery in this show, a big part of what makes any other pavilion exciting. (Assuming it's exciting at all.) Inevitably, the Gonzalez-Torres show feels sealed off and commemorative...
Which you certainly couldn't say about the French pavilion. The 54-year-old Parisian artist Sophie Calle has filled it with a multiroom installation, called Take Care of Yourself, which is an insanely energetic takedown of a ratty ex-boyfriend who walked out of her life with a pious, high-minded e-mail. Or did he? Halfway through this pavilion it occurred to me that the boyfriend, and the e-mail, might be fictitious. Which makes no difference to the deliciously over-the-top mechanisms of the piece...
Nearby is the British pavilion, which occupies what you might call a high ground of the Old World - France on its left, Germany on its right.

...None of the banners hanging in the rafters above the gym floor at Lavietes Pavilion represent an Ivy League championship in men’s basketball.

...losses capped off non-conference play with a 7-7 mark, as Harvard headed to Dartmouth for the Ivy opener. Despite 25 points and 15 rebounds from Cusworth, the Crimson fell in overtime, 80-73. Harvard would get revenge just six days later, defeating the Big Green at Lavietes Pavilion, 77-71, to snap a four-game losing streak. Six players scored in double figures for the Crimson in the win.In Cusworth’s final weekend with the team, he did anything but disappoint. The center had a career-high 28 points and 10 rebounds in a loss...
