...reveal the same sorts of things that other people do, they see you as odd," Boone said. "They need to connect with the normalcy of your existence. You need to appear as a whole person...
...Wols's abstractions are scenes of the everyday realities of Paris life. Influenced by Moholy-Nagy and other Bauhaus aestheticians, they reveal the abstraction inherent in commonplace details. When figures are used, as in Untitled (Clochard) ,their human identity is obscured. Bodies become compositional elements, mere surfaces for the interplay of shadows.

Visitors should plan to spend an afternoon swimming in the clear, spring-fed water of Walden Pond, searching for frogs along its fringe and exploring the 1 3/4-mile trail that encircles it. Another day, families may want to pack a picnic, rent a canoe at South Bridge and paddle the Sudbury and Concord rivers to North Bridge, tinderbox of the American Revolution and the setting of Emerson's Concord Hymn, which celebrated...
