...greatest conceptual project was marriage to Lennon. It let her inflate her thought balloons to global scale, but they burst. Those "bed-ins" for peace were sweet but also hard to distinguish from pure exhibitionism. The dreamy directives of her conceptual art became harder to square with the iron-clad narcissism of so much else that she did. "After unblocking one's mind," she once wrote, "by dispensing with visual, auditory and kinetic perceptions, what will come out of us? Would there be anything? I wonder." By the end of this show you may still be wondering...

...preserved her own. She knew that they were both creatures of the living theater, of the lightning that struck but once, inevitably reduced by film and electric furniture. "Watch him move," she'd say of Bob. "He knows the joke." Clearly, so did Gwen. Remember her astonishing finish to Sweet Charity's If They Could See Me Now, laughing at her own impossible finale, knowing that this moment was gone as you watched it, immortalized only by the presence of you both: now you see it; now you don't.

But his entire campaign is designed to mask a basic question: Bush may know who he is, but does anyone else in his party? While Bush runs as "a different kind of Republican," majority whip Tom DeLay has not changed; much of the rest of the leadership has not changed; the party platform has barely changed. He is treated as the messiah by conservatives left in the wilderness since Newt Gingrich was exiled, who have been willing all year long...

...capture people in their environment. I've done a lot of photography that tends to be sort of personal," she explains as she displays some of the photos in her extensive color series of flowers in her father's greenhouse, which includes everything from orchids to sweet peas. "It smells amazing on a winter morning," she adds. "I think that the sense of smell is the least synesthetic for visual arts, though you can still convey a very tactile sense...
