Empire State Art Collection The Empire State Plaza Art Collection (a project started in 1965 by Nelson Rockefeller and finished in 1978), consists of 92 paintings, sculptures, and tapestries that are sited in the Empire State Plaza concourse, buildings, and outdoor areas in Albany, NY. Many of the objects can be considered under the general heading of "New York School" art. Considered avant-garde at the time it was created, New York School art eventually acquired mainstream status, and is the first American art movement to have truly worldwide impact.

Boston Review February/March 1995 Vol. XX No. 1 Boston Review combines commitments to public reason and literary imagination. Putting politics and poetry on the same page, we anticipate a world that is at once more democratic and imaginative than our own; treating each as an autonomous value, we explode conventional stereotypes about politicos and aesthetes. We are a magazine of political, cultural, and literary ideas, and we take that designation seriously: Our intellectual range distinguishes us from any political journal or literary quarterly, while our seriousness of purpose sets us apart from other general interest magazines.

Technology Recapitulates Phylogeny: Artificial Life Art. Paper by Kenneth E. Rinaldo
'Sculptor' - a 3D Computer Sculpting System. An edited version of this paper was published in Leonardo, Vol 24 , Number 4, 1991. The Author describes Sculptor, a three-dimensional computer modelling system that allows the use of sculptural methods for the construction of objects. These objects can be subsequently realised as physical sculptures through the use of a contour-slicing routine, though the major use of the system has been in the production of computer images of 3D 'scenes'. The origins, structure, and usage of the system are described, followed by a discussion of the author's personal exploration of its possibilities.ECOSITE: AN APPLICATION OF COMPUTER-AIDED DESIGN
TO THE COMPOSITION OF LANDFORMS FOR RECLAMATION
Paper by Robert Mallary and Michael Ferraro. Surface mining, though an efficient method of extracting near-surface coal for the nation's mounting energy needs, requires sound reclamation if the harmful environmental impacts of the method are to be held to a tolerable minimum. Another important requirement is aesthetic quality, a feature which should, but as yet does not, involve professional planners and designers at the early preplanning stage of reclamation. To encourage this needed improvement a multidisciplinary research group at the University of Massachusetts is developing a comprehensive "preplanning-and-design resource package" that includes an interactive graphics program for-landform design as an important component. Called ECOSITE, this user-oriented program is the first serious effort to apply the power of interactive graphics and CAD to the design and sculpturing of large-scale topographical compositions for reclamation and other forms of site preparation and improvement. This paper discusses the program from the standpoint of its application, specifications, design, current capabilities and necessary improvements, including the ability to test its own output against relevant criteria.INVENTORY OF THE DAVID ALFARO SIQUEIROS PAPERS, 1920-1991, BULK 1930-1936 at The Getty Research Institute.
