The top rotor was bent over, its long blades twisted - feathers in disarray. But the illusion ceased when I glanced at three passengers in Army green standing alongside. Flying close overhead in a Chinook I looked at Captain Ron Liss, who was beside me hanging out the open door; 1 pulled off my mitten to expose three fingers. He stretched five gloved fingers in reply. Where were the other two soldiers?". ISBN 155591005x

24002. Spies, Werner, 1937-. Focus on art. Translated by Luna Carne-Ross and John William Gabriel. New York : Rizzoli, 1982, 279pp., large PAPERBACK, very good, $12
Translation of: Das Auge am Tatort. Now emeritus Professor from the Kunstakademie in Düsseldorf, Spies is known as a vigorous proponent of French modernist art and literature in Germany. This book collects 64 essays, mostly on modern artists and exhibitions, which originally appeared in the FAZ from 1967-1981. In other words, inspired feuilleton. One virtue of art as an object of study is its international monetary value, which means that art and artists travel around the world, are collected, forgotten, remembered, localized and homogenized again - and it is always worth something to somebody to keep them going. Spies follows this reality in his writing and one can read about David Hockney or Nathalie Sarraute in May 1968 or a French-German retrospective of Romantic paintings or Richard Lindner and find stimulating remarks about vocabularies moving between countries, about overcoming false histories predicated on national prejudice, about literary conflicts and university reforms influencing the imagery of politics. Art has a bit of exile built into its nature, and that makes it rich material for learning about what you do not already know: which is fun. ISBN 0847804046
