Fingers first, memory last

              

A friend wrote in the other day,

reminding one that politics play

only a part. At the end of it, I

agree, though they do take their

time, up front. These are photo-

graphs by the 20th Century Bolog-

nese master Nino Migliori, which

compose themselves as a sequence

in the direst crime of politics,

against which naïveté holds fast.

"The hands speak," was the title

of one of his exhibitions in New

York. Let it be known, they live.
