...truth shines like a spotlight. For the first half of the evening, the stage has been shrouded in melancholy: dim lighting, failed hope, blunted ambition. But in the intensely personal, Ziegfeld-like "Loveland" sequence, lights and color suddenly challenge the eye, an umber paintbox opened in the sun. This visual dazzle is reminiscent of Vincente Minnelli's movie musicals ?notably the focal ballet in An American in Paris. Onstage, it has never been mounted with such unfailing skill...
...fault. Artistic creation of a non-professional, non-commercial sort is barely acknowledged here, hardly encouraged.

...walls of the museum- I hope." Four weeks ago, the first show at Hammarskjold Plaza opened with seven giant constructions by Alexander Liberman. It was an intelligent choice: Liberman's buoyant sculptures, with their red-lacquered steel surfaces laid like skin over space, changed the street into a visual event...
