...exhibit’s focus on the expansive horizon, the sharp contrast between the sky and the ground and the striking features of the land makes each photograph an extraordinary tableau to behold. For most people, the obvious interest in the exhibition is the relationship between Wenders’s cinematic and photographic works. But Melissa Davenport, who worked on this exhibition for the Carpenter Center, explains that it has the potential to appeal to a wider audience...
...grandfather never met Mohandas Gandhi, but he did the next best thing. A photograph taken in the 1950s, which hung in a room in his mansion, showed him bashfully stepping forward to place a garland around the neck of Jawaharlal Nehru, the man Gandhi chose to lead India after independence from Britain. If Gandhi is India's founding saint, for those of my grandfather's generation, Nehru, their first Prime Minister, was only a shade removed. They called him the "architect of the nation" and believed he would heal India's divisions and transform their impoverished country into a proud...
While Dubya signed into law the ban on “partial-birth” abortion this week, I found myself repeating the president’s words.

We are supposed to be talking about his new album, Rock N Roll, but Adams has decided to chain-smoke...
Your item about letrozole, the new drug for treating breast cancer, was accompanied by a photograph of a woman whose hand and arm were strategically placed across her bare breasts [Oct. 20]. In the same issue, a story on the development of a male birth-control drug had an illustration of a man's head. Do I detect a double standard here? Next time you do a story involving male sexuality or, say, prostate cancer, I suggest you include a photo of an artistically posed male nude covering his nether regions. Fair's fair.
