New & Improved Heard Museum/Native Americans of the Southwest/New Indian Artists & Craftspeople"Brazil: Territory, Land, Work, Culture" is no traditional history lesson.
This impressive colorful new book could be added to your library. A wide exposure of this volume should also rapidly increase the numbers of North Americans who will book flights to Rio, outings to Brazilia, and boat-trips up the Amazon. An excellent introduction to the World that is Brazil—and of Brazil to the World—it was originally published solely for distribution through Brazilian Embassies and Consulates. Its purpose was—and is—to reach as wide as possible an audience of people interested in learning more about Brazil: especially teachers and "opinion-makers." Our reviewer, Glenn Loney, tells you how to request a copy.San Francisco and Palo Alto

Where Else But at the Whitney?
"The American Century: Art & Culture 1900-2000" runs through August 22. At the close of this turbulent and transforming century, it is time to take stock of what has been achieved, mastered, and learned. It's a good reason for Americans from all walks of life to come to the Whitney Museum of American Art this summer. The first half of our momentous century is being surveyed in both breadth and depth."Endurance" on Central Park West
Everybody knows about the Titanic. But the gradual sinking of the Endurance—crushed between shifting packs of Antarctic ice—occurred only a few years later, without much public attention. Europe was on the verge of the First World War when Sir Ernest Shackleton departed with his well-chosen crew for Antarctica. When he finally returned, after an appalling ordeal—without losing a single man of his crew—this amazing feat of courage, teamwork, survival, and faith was almost eclipsed by the disasters of war. Today, even the names of the resourceful leader of this ill-fated Antarctic Expedition and of his doomed ship are little known. That should soon be corrected by the remarkable new exhibition on view at the American Museum of Natural History. And by the best-selling book by Caroline Alexander, guest-curator of this ingeniously designed show.Meet me at the Met!
