...material had already produced the best new museum building in America−the Kimbell Art Museum in Fort Worth, opened in 1972. Kahn accepted the job and designed a four-story box, dedicated to light: a building without gimmicks or stylistic narcissism, low-keyed but explicit, whose pale concrete, blond wood and natural linen wall coverings provided a strictly subordinate background to the paintings. (The architect never lived to see it finished; he died in 1974.) This unpretentious exactness of taste was much in keeping with Mellon's general style of philanthropy: the ambition being, a phrase often heard...
...tour in Europe last summer, Gelsey and A.B.T. Soloist Richard Schafer, 25, discovered each other. Tall, blond and as unflappable as Gelsey is volatile, Schafer showed her a world beyond ballet. He packed her along on sightseeing jaunts and taught her to be interested in good food and wine. "Richard has helped me more than anybody," says Gelsey.

The Dutch-born author, 47, who has sojourned in many exotic places and once lived in a Buddhist monastery in Japan, now inhabits Maine and writes cleaner English prose than many a Yankee aspirant. However, his stories are still set, with occasional departures (The Japanese Corpse), in Amsterdam, where his sleuths have taken over the turf once occupied by Nicolas Freeling's late, lamented Inspector Van der Valk. Van de Wetering's latest Dutch treat, starring the familiar trio of Detectives Grijpstra and de Gier and their commissaris...
