...simultaneously observe the world around us on both a micro and macro scale. This desire to explore the relationship between objects and ourselves is reflected again in the piece “120 Days.” After reading an article by a market analyst that partially attributed the success of Coca-Cola to the way its original glass bottles mimicked the shape of a woman’s body, Ortega set out to explore the various forms a uniform glass bottle can take.

Both countries will need to do more - much more - if the U.N. climate-change summit in Copenhagen is to be a success, and they'll need to be more straightforward. But as the EDF's Yarnold said in a speech today, "China is no laggard in the race to develop clean energy and reduce global- warming pollution. In fact, it is moving ahead."
