Artist as Analyst. A spate of recent shows has established that contemporary portraits are two-way mirrors. Larry Rivers makes a collage portrait of Pop Artist Jim Dine on a metal storm window. Raise the bottom half, lower the top pane, and presto, a different Dine peers through. Pop Artist Andy Warhol tries to beat the penny-arcade snapshot by silk-screening the image many times over. Reginald Pollack found he had painted himself into a corner; his Self-Portrait (opposite page) shows his face surrounded by images of the girl he was then courting. She outnumbers...

...Two-Way Stretch. Strictly speaking, the University of Arkansas' Dr. Richard V. Ebert told a meeting of the New York Heart Association, emphysema is a more or less permanent inflation of the lungs resulting from the loss of elasticity in their deepest recesses. There the tiny alveoli, or gas-exchange cells, give up carbon dioxide and take in oxygen. Clustered around small arteries, they are so numerous that they create a huge area for gas exchange-about 85 sq. yds. in the average adult...
