GALLERIES

One of the most interesting, versatile and well-known art historians is speaking at Harvard tomorrow. Linda Nochlin, who's a professor at Vassar and whose books are recommended reading, at least, in Fine Arts 13 and most of the Fine Arts department's post-1800 courses, will be lecturing on Manet's Ball at the Opera at 4 p.m. in the Christian Room at the Fogg. Nochlin is a great scholar, but she's also written about problems of art and artists in our own time--the state of scholarship on women artists, the problems of government funding for art. It should be a very interesting lecture and discussion, and it's open to the public.

Max Ernst, surrealist supreme, is at the Busch-Reisinger. The exhibit is part of his major retrospective at the Guggenheim last spring. Check out the review in Tuesday's Crimson, and go.

Nostalgia for the 60s is showing up all over the place. There's an exhibit called "Woodstock Environment" at MIT's Hayden Gallery through October 29.

The exhibit of Roy Lichtenstein Prints at the Fogg closes Sunday. Also there's a great exhibit of examples from the Museum's fine collection of 17th century Dutch drawings and paintings on the second floor--the exhibit's connected with Seymour Slive's Fine Arts 166, is really good, and is going down on Halloween.

And, yes, I'm feeling much better. Thanks to all who asked.
