...Nielsen Gallery on Newbury St. in Boston is exhibiting new acquisitions, including works by Moore, Miro, Roualt and Picasso. In the lobby of Gund Hall is an exhibit by the GSD of archetypal modern housing projects--featuring Frank Lloyd Wright, who, I was told on the plane heading for Boston last Sunday, did not really do most of his own designing.

The story until then has the sure, mellow complexity of Mozart?at the end it degenerates into the kind of opera that advertises soap...
...print on the paper. Brassai combined the man-made images created by cliche verre with mechanically produced photographs and created what he called "transmutations." Most of the pictures in the M.I.T. show are photographs of nudes which have been drawn over and changed into abstract designs reminiscent of Picasso's cubist distortions...
