And the points themselves are very different. So A Man...

These instances were situations that included the beholder, in which physical participation became necessary. Writing about Minimal works Fried pointed out the distancing character of these ...

I felt that the local talent of The Baton Rouge Little Theatre was wasted on such a droll work. I found it difficult to stay focused on the play and instead found myself...
