Exhibition By Michael O'Sullivan
The American University Museum has seven -- count 'em, seven -- shows on view as part of its winter
exhibition season, most of which could be said to center on the theme of
labor-intensive craft. Not to be missed: painter Madeleine Keesing's cake-frosting-thick abstractions; sculptor Richard Cleaver's byzantine ceramic-and-mixed-media figures; and painter Stanley Lewis's densely layered landscapes. On Saturday, Lewis will be on hand for a gallery talk at 5, followed by a public reception for all seven shows from 6 to 9. Call 202-885-2787.
Film By Desson Thomson
"Only Human," a Spanish farce, has absolutely no business being as laugh-out-loud funny as it often is. Seriously, what were the chances of a family comedy -- built around a Jewish woman bringing her Palestinian beau home for the first time -- being anything but absurd, goofy and very strained? When do we start giggling at jokes about intifadas and stone-throwing? The crazy thing is, we do. See review on Page 34.
