...must avoid the effect of stone." Rubens' large altarpiece, still in Antwerp Cathedral, of the Descent from the Cross, 1611-14, demonstrates exactly what he meant. The figure of Christ, the pale, dead God sliding down the cross into the arms of the living, is a visual quotation from Michelangelo-the kind of thing artists had been doing for 70 years. But Rubens did it in an entirely new way. Michelangelo had invented a tragic structure for the human body; Rubens invented a tragic surface. Nothing in earlier European art prepares one for that white, drained skin with...
...them, or women who irresponsibly knock over lamps, smash holes in shipbottoms, who make themselves a general and continual pain are excusable if--and only if--they possess enough sex appeal in their baby toenail to put an army of men on the scent for months. Beyond the purely visual level, Deneuve's appeal lies in the certain restlessness perceivable in her every move, the untameable craziness that forces her to stop at nothing--stealing, biting and screaming--to get what she wants.

Nor would he object to legislation that skin magazines could be displayed only at adult height and in such a way that anyone could make a 360° visual sweep of a shop and not be assaulted by nude-magazine covers. He obviously fears any movement that would put his kind of magazine back under the counter. Whatever his motives, Bob Guccione is responding to a problem that the Supreme Court, with all its difficulties in defining obscenity...
...land of Scortch, peopled by animalistic mutants, revives the lost art of war and attacks Montagar, a pastoral realm of elves and gentle wizards. "They have weapons and technology," an elf says of the attackers. "We only have love." Bakshi's visual effects at times are striking - stylized war footage superimposed on animated battles, pastel medievalism for Montagar, an updated, bombed-out Piranesi look for Scortch...
