...playful use of space. Yet from the start Rudolph's design drew criticism. British Architectural Critic Nikolas Pevsner doubted that such an idiosyncratic and personal building could meet the changing needs of new directors and new educational goals. Yale students went even farther. "The building was a nice visual experience," says one, "but from the start it was functionally inadequate." Student painters and sculptors, who tend to think big these days, found the studios too small to accommodate their works. Owing to the fact that money ran out before air conditioning could be installed, unshaded south-facing rooms were...
This does not mean that he is a good craftsman who can use his stylistic means only for character descriptions. The visual style of La Femme Infidele is a consistent unity which he has developed beyond that of his earlier films.

Like his paintings, his poems are personal, full of discovery, the outpourings of an artist who seems to need to share his joy with the world. "I want to express myself with anything I can get my hands on," he says. "Whether it is words or shoes...
Question of Belief. Clark's idea was that the series should be not just a Cook's tour of the greatest art museums, monuments, cities and plazas of Europe and America, but a visual account of Western man's entire pageant, from the first tentative re-emergence of art and philosophy under Charlemagne to the "heroic materialism" of today...
