...display room has stayed the same and the Fogg is starting to feel the pinch. It plans to expand within the next five years, proably by building an addition to house the offices and workrooms now on the third and fourth floors. That would free these floors for gallery space, and they would be opened to the public...
...Center, in contrast, is an amorphous collection of about 60 independently-working people. As Fein puts it, "One does not expect an aggregate product out of this kind of enterprise." Most members regard the Joint Center in non-organizational, personal, functional terms.

Leading the company was Maya Plisetskaya, a ballerina assoluta of the broad, open Moscow style, which makes the sheer physical act of moving beautifully through space look like a natural way of life. The Russians offered virtuoso, bravo-catching nights of pinpoint turns, rock-steady balances and astronautic high leaps. But there was little to praise in the undernourished bits, snippets and shards of 19th century choreography that provided the vehicles for the Bolshoi...
