...painting cant in the '70s. Much of the work of younger American artists remains abstract, whether "decorative" (Alan Shields, Valerie Jaudon or the exuberant Judy Pfaff, whose manic, space-consuming constructions are hybrids of painting and sculpture) or more ostensibly rigorous in its aims, like that of Gary Stephan, 42.

While Britain's Stephan Pinsent finished only eleventh in the 165-lb. class, no one who saw the strain etched on his face would question his Olympian effort. The audience at the Loyola Marymount University arena was a reverent one, quieting to a hush as the athletes approached a barbell, then exploding into tumult following an extraordinary feat.
