Cutting Satire. For all his cult of objects, Samaras has never become as famous as the pop artists with whom he first exhibited. If Claes Oldenburg or Tom Wesselmann turned out a strawberry sundae, it looked good enough to eat. Samaras filled his sherbet glass with nails and topped it off with a razor.

He dances, skates, jumps rope, hunches like a vulture but above all likes to lie flat on his back on the top of his doghouse awaiting supper -which sometimes includes a dish of sherbet on the side. Snoopy is no great shakes at chasing rabbits ("I don't even know what a rabbit smells like"), but he never fails to sniff out ice cream cones and candy. "Snoopy is not a real dog," says Schulz.

...abstract expressionists passed. In contrast to the abstract expressionists' frenzy of free-swinging brushstrokes, Morris Louis, who died suddenly two years ago at the age of 50, turned out paintings in which any trace of imagery or personality disappeared into cool, lush fields of color.
