...credit, several of her horizontal compositions are unusually strong in their geometric structure and most of her works accomplish their goal of illusionistic pleasantry.

With no SWAT team to call on, they assemble an unfortunate-looking squad of volunteer policemen disguised as athletes, except that the World War II-era steel helmets and submachine guns undo any camouflage effect created by their gaudy Adidas track suits, and put them into position to storm the Israelis' besieged compound.
