Somebody Up There is not distributing the talent very evenly. While many an artist is going mad trying to make a loft and a set of oils stretch into a career, the Wyeth family of Chadds Ford, Pa., moves imperturbably into its third generation of artistic luster. A new show at Swarthmore College, near Philadelphia, lets viewers see the romantic illustrations of Grandfather N. C. Wyeth (1882-1945), the universal evocations of Father Andrew (TIME cover, Dec. 27) and the prodigal realism of Andrew's son James, who is only...
...amateur cooks, having Julia Child on TV is as rewarding as it would be, say, to amateur painters to have Andrew Wyeth giving a weekly drill in sketching. She delivers her points with a kind of muddleheaded nonchalance that invites others to feel that if she can do it, anybody can. As she putters over items like roast goose with a stuffing of pate-filled prunes or a simple mousseline de poisson a la marechale, she mutters archaically about the "icebox," refers to the ventral area of the bird as its "chest," advises using "a few good whaps of pepper...

Happy Rockefeller took young Jamie and Wendy Murphy to the Carnegie Hall concert-the first time she has been photographed with her children since her divorce and remarriage. In Washington...
Realism is represented by Andrew Wyeth's A Day at the Fair, a drybrush watercolor of a Negro girl alone at home. Its social side is found in Jack Levine's police dogs in Birmingham '63. Geometric expressionism shows in the "hard-edge" painting of Richard Anuskiewicz' blinding checkerboard or in Ellsworth Kelly's triad of yellow tongues. Pop art's proponent is James Rosenquist's Morning Sun, with a plastic awning rising to stifle a billboard model's yawn...
