...dinner, we cannot remember the name of the sculptor who did the Statue of Liberty. I tell a story about Bugs Bunny and Daffy Duck, and about their creator, the great animator Chuck Jones, who has a cartoon on his office wall, captioned "Agnostic Fleas," showing two fleas standing perplexedly in a wasteland filled with enormous stalks that turn out to be huge hairs; one flea says disconsolately to the other, "Sometimes I wonder if there really...
...most mystical thing I've ever done," says Gehry. "The best shape I've ever made." He designed it on a computer screen, which is rare for him. Though computers are essential to plot the specs for his complicated forms, in the design phase Gehry works like a sculptor, drawing and building three-dimensional models, one after another after another.

Director Lisa Krueger enjoys the contrast with this film-unlike Thelma or Louise, Joline heads west to remain bonded in matrimony and to keep her husband from being free as well.

The series of metallic West African votive dolls are craftily placed together in the penultimate room of the exhibition space, mimicking an ethnographic collection...
...play of language than visual ingenuity. A number of her found objects make this particularly clear, such as Breath of a Librarian, a deflated black balloon found in the reading room of the British Library. Works like this might lead us to wonder whether collector, rather than sculptor, might be a better description for Parker...
