...hope to include a do-it-yourself guide for people concerned about the right-wing takeover and Goldwater sickness in the party," Petri said. The emphasis will be on convincing Republicans that these factions do pose a threat-that there are large sections of the Republican party which have not been convinced by the Goldwater defeat.

In his Slab City Rendezvous, for instance, people misproportioned in daydream dimensions pose in the front yard of a Maine summer home, while an artist and his easel stand on the rooftop, projecting above the frame's edge. In Eighth Avenue Snow Scene, the street juts out in a stage set to frame kids pranking while a gross, pipe-puffing man in galoshes...
