...knot of symbolic acts and images--and they do indeed unknot--you'll find a maniacal, systematic and deeply imagined vision of a world as strangely alternate as Lewis Carroll's in Through the Looking Glass. If you dig into the swelling body of criticism about Barney, knowing references repeat themselves, from Joseph Beuys, the late German master of performance art and social spectacles, to video pioneer Vito Acconci to the powerful minimalist sculptor Richard Serra--each of whom dramatically reshaped the artistic landscape. Barney follows, doing what all visionary artists do: he creates a parallel universe that reflects something...
...reports that Beijing had warned Washington that China might "punish" Taiwan over its leader?s demand for an end to the "One China" policy, which maintains that democratic Taiwan and the communist mainland are one nation that will eventually be reunified.

Instead of Harvard, he chose Brown University, in Providence, R.I., which was enjoying a popularity boom in part because it had no core-curriculum requirements. Kennedy was beginning to look more like his father and--the tabloid language is irresistible--much more like a hunk. He scarcely seemed to notice the attention he attracted from curious students, and eventually he became a no-big-deal part of the scene. Stripped to the waist...
