...Majestic, in the midst of the intellectual phenomenon that was the early 20th century modernist movement. Diaghilev introduced the novel idea that dance must exist not on its own but as a climactic collaboration between first-rate painters, musicians, and composers. The willingness of men from Picasso, Matisse, and Rouault to Ravel, Debussy and Stravinsky to collaborate with Diaghilev on his creations signaled the inauguration of a new interdisciplinary era in arts and culture, and dance in particular, that would shape all future exploits. Early Diaghilevan productions have not only remained in the repertory of many major ballet companies...
...half a million dollars for a single concert and never less than $100,000. "The Soviets can't afford me," he jokes, but Horowitz will receive about $2.5 million dollars for TV and recording rights to his five-concert series.

A scaled-down one-volume slipcased trade version costs a mere $65. (Oxford's cheapest King James is $12.50.) At the opposite end of the cultural scale. Scarf Press and David C. Cook have...
...room studio apartment is filled with contrasts, much like the man himself. The charcoal walls are covered neatly with contemporary art, lithographs by Rouault and Picasso, several Warhols. An unmade bed, the black velour cover twisted on top, sits low in the corner of the room. The modern glass tables are stacked with art books. There is a small balcony off the eleventh-floor studio, but Jordan is afraid to step out. He fears heights. When one of his girlfriends wants to sit outside, Jordan will sometimes edge onto the balcony, pressing against the wall, and sit nervously with...
