Precisely, says Moltmann. What makes man's future so full of promise is not the modernist's idea of upward, evolutionary progress inherent in man but, quite simply, Christ's death and Resurrection. No matter whether the Resurrection is verifiable as a historical event; that "something" happened to give early Christians their immense hope is evidence enough. In addition, argues Moltmann, while the Resurrection may be "the sign of future hope," the cross itself-through Christ's sacrifice-means "hope to the-hopeless...

...heyday, the style was simply called "modernist" or "Moderne." But Clothes Designer Lewis Winter, one of the style's leading collectors, makes a distinction between Deco and Moderne. From 1918 to 1925, when Paris held a mammoth International Exposition of Decorative Arts, the style was more Deco, which he defines as graceful, rococo and curvilinear. From 1925 until 1939, the look modified into Moderne, which was chunkier and more geometric, as in a silver tea service designed by Britain's Charles Boyton. In Winter's living room, a black and gold painted panel for a post-office...

...history, the Met's show is selective and flawed. Geldzahler has limited his exhibition to what he calls the New York School, by his definition a stylistic rather than a geographic limitation, and focused on what he sees as the central figures in the international modernist tradition. Given this definition, however, it is hard to see why he left out such major artists as Naum Gabo, Louise Nevelson, Sam Francis, Mark Tobey, William Baziotes, Richard Lindner, Larry Rivers, Marisol and Lee Bontecou. Even so, with 406 works by 43 artists, Geldzahler has assembled the most exhaustive survey ever...

...Universes. Fosdick was reared by a liberal schoolteacher father who was a trinitarian in his own way: he had his son immersed as a Baptist but sent him to Presbyterian Sunday school and allowed him to join a Methodist youth group. At Colgate University, modernist thinkers so impressed the boy that he wrote his mother, "I am building another universe and leaving God out of it." But God was back in by the time Fosdick graduated from Colgate in the class of 1900. He entered Union Theological Seminary and in 1903 was ordained into the Baptist ministry...

...term Abstract Expressionism or Action Painting. He settles for the title "The New American Painting and Sculpture: The First Generation." The catalogue defines the school as those artists who shared "common goals, a common revolutionary élan, a common disengagement from middle-class values." They were determined to challenge modernist European tradition, and the six-year interlude of the war had proved they were no longer dependent on it. What resulted was an enormous explosion of spirit that was peculiarly American...
