He\u2019d be wrong, though. The best thing about <em>Melrose Place<\/em> was that it served as a secret gallery space for a collective called the GALA Committee, led by the conceptual artist Mel Chin. By agreeing to work for free, Chin brokered a deal with the show\u2019s producers that gave him essentially carte blanche to insert his art into the show. As M. H. Miller writes, \u201c<a href=\"http:\/\/www.artnews.com\/2016\/08\/01\/remembering-when-melrose-place-became-a-conceptual-art-project-mel-chins-gala-committee-returns-this-fall\/\">The project was titled\u00a0<em>In the Name of the Place<\/em>, and will be the subject of a retrospective exhibition at Red Bull Studios in New York this fall<\/a> \u2026 Chin said of about 200 works that the group produced, roughly\u00a070 percent were accepted. In one episode, when Alison gets pregnant, she wraps herself in a quilt that has printed on it the chemical structure of RU-486, the morning after pill \u2026 In one scene, Kimberly holds a Chinese takeout box, which has written on it, in Chinese characters, the words \u2018Human Rights\u2019 and \u2018Turmoil and Chaos,\u2019 a nod to the different interpretations among the West and\u00a0China of the Tiananmen Square protests.\u201d<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<ul>\n<li>If you prefer art that\u2019s unaffiliated with <em>Melrose Place<\/em>\u2014though I can\u2019t imagine why you would\u2014head to the Whitney for \u201cStuart Davis: In Full Swing,\u201d which celebrates \u201cthe only first-class Cubist to emerge from North America,\u201d Robert Storr says: \u201c<a href=\"http:\/\/www.nybooks.com\/daily\/2016\/08\/09\/great-american-cubist-stuart-davis\/\">From his breakthrough in the mid-1920s until his death at seventy-one in 1964, just as the wave of Pop artists\u2014to whom he gave courage and taught ways of seeing and doing\u2014crested, Davis concentrated single-mindedly on making art quiver with the energy he perceived around him<\/a>. Jazz was an inherently urban music, but in Davis\u2019s art its pulse could be felt everywhere, from Hudson River docks to small seaport towns in New England where swing bands and bebop combos\u2014not to mention African-Americans\u2014were few and far between.\u201d<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<ul>\n<li>At the Victoria and Albert Museum in London, meanwhile, a show called \u201cThe Camera Exposed\u201d features more than 120 photographs with cameras in them. It\u2019s better than it sounds, Simon Willis says: \u201c<a href=\"https:\/\/www.1843magazine.com\/culture\/the-daily\/the-cameras-selfportrait\">What emerges from the exhibition is a complicated bond<\/a>. In one picture, an elderly Paul Strand carries a large box camera in his arms, holding it like an infant jealously guarded. In another\u00a0Eve Arnold photographs herself in a distorting mirror, her figure and those\u00a0on the street around her blurred and elongated. It\u2019s a self-portrait that seems to take a wry look at the act of photographing, and how it can record the truth but also bend it out of shape. In fact the show examines not just the relationship between photographers and cameras, but also the guises that cameras have assumed.\u201d<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<ul>\n<li>Advice for male writers: come on, guys, knock it off already, we\u2019ve had this conversation before! \u201c<a href=\"https:\/\/www.theguardian.com\/books\/2016\/aug\/10\/horror-of-female-adolescence-literature-robin-wasserman-emma-cline?CMP=twt_books_b-gdnbooks\">Far too often, very ordinary phenomena like female sexual desire or the onset of puberty are elevated by male writers to something remarkable, frightening<\/a>. Young women are either the animalistic bearers of the erotic urge, or bodily reminders of how sin enters the world. And other elements of female adolescence not associated with sex\u2014like the intensity of friendships or familial bonds at that stage of life\u2014are left off the page, or reduced to dramatic displays of hormonal cattiness.\u201d<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<ul>\n<li>The Olympics provide a great occasion for fantasizing about space\u2014specifically, for fantasizing about the Olympics in space. But few among us would dare, as Chip Rowe has, to delve into the specifics of space sports: \u201c<a href=\"http:\/\/nautil.us\/issue\/39\/sport\/if-the-olympics-were-held-in-space\">Modern athletes pride themselves in their ability to withstand boiling temperatures and frozen terrain<\/a>. But it wasn\u2019t until explorers mapped the planet Gliese 436b that competitors got the chance to tackle both extremes at once. Roughly the size of Neptune, Gliese orbits far closer to its sun than Mercury does to ours, making its surface a balmy 820 degrees Fahrenheit. At that temperature, you\u2019d think the planet would be all gas. In fact, immense pressure in Gliese\u2019s interior compresses water into an exotic phase of ice known as Ice X, in much the way pressure in Earth\u2019s interior turns carbon into diamond. The result is a world cloaked in \u2018hot ice\u2019 and bathed in steam. A decade ago, 10 tenacious hockey teams flew the thirty light-years to Gliese for the first of what has become an annual tournament. The flaming puck makes the action easy to follow.\u201d<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Ask any Joe on the street and he\u2019ll tell you the best thing about Melrose Place\u00a0was Heather Locklear.
