The work, measuring 66 by 32 feet, was a gigantic blue-and-white striped drape that hung from the top of the rotunda. It was Mr. Buren's contribution to the Sixth Guggenheim International, an important exhibition that signaled the arrival of a post-Pop generation of artists who fabricated artworks from rubber, lead, fluorescent tubes and plywood. Led by Dan Flavin and Donald Judd, 5 of the 17 artists in the show complained that Mr. Buren's big banner would prevent viewers at certain vantage points from seeing their works and demanded it be removed. The day before the opening, the museum capitulated, and it was taken away.

The Movies of Yves Klein.
Yves Klein (1928 - 1962) was not a director, but during his practice,
he asked professionals from the Gaumont Studio in Paris to shoot some
of his performances and ephemeral pieces. These films have been
recently restored for the Yves Klein Archives by the Pompidou Center in
Paris.

The Romantic1 poet John Keats (1795-1821) coined the phrase 'Negative Capability' in a letter written to his brothers George and Thomas on the 21 December, 1817. In this letter he defined his new concept of writing:
I mean Negative Capability, that is when man is capable of being in uncertainties, Mysteries, doubts, without any irritable reaching after fact and reason.
What Keats is advocating is a removal of the intellectual self while writing (or reading) poetry – after all:
Beauty is truth, truth beauty – that is all
Ye know on earth and all ye need know
- Ode on a Grecian Urn, lines 49-50
It was a mystery for a New York minute. On, Tuesday the Astor Place Cube went missing—and neither the police nor local community leaders nor its creator, the famed sculptor Tony Rosenthal, knew where it was.
