Once a figure of international renown, Jesus Soto is now mostly remembered as a minor Modernist who worked in the overlap among hard-edge abstraction, kinetic art and Op Art. ''Soto: Paris and Beyond, 1950-1970'' at New York University's Grey Art Gallery will not precipitate a run to revive his reputation, but it does open an interesting window on the mid-20th-century philosophical landscape of modern art. At a time when the Abstract Expressionists were painting monuments of ecstatic selfhood, Soto (1923-2005) disavowed personal expression. His aim was to heighten viewer awareness of the roles played by eyes and bodies in the experience of art and the world at large. Formally his works were invariably suave, but he was more interested in phenomenology than aesthetics -- more in how than what we see. In that sense he anticipated much of what was to come in the art of the past half-century. But by the end of the 1960s his initial radicalism was eclipsed by other avant-garde developments on both sides of the Atlantic. [ABSTRACT FROM PUBLISHER]

What are we all so afraid of? From spiders to rogue asteroids and beyond, but certainly people would be near the top of any list. Of particular concern would be people who are not like us. Speaking in different languages, dressing oddly, believing in strange gods, motivated by shadowy purposes and desires, they threaten everything we hold dear. So we build walls to keep them away. But since they often live among us, we also create internal systems to police them and keep them under surveillance, lest they conspire and act on their alien intentions. For more than three decades, the multimedia artist Antoni Muntadas, who goes by the single name Muntadas, has been addressing this psycho-social quagmire in the forms of videos, installations and illustrative photographic works. Focusing on seven projects from 1978 to 2011, ''Muntadas: Information>>Space>>Control'' at the Bronx Museum of the Arts gives a good account of the strengths and weaknesses of his frankly didactic approach.

Dodge Gallery 15 Rivington Street, Lower East Side [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

In a metaphorical land not far from reality, a beautiful palace rises from a desolate plain of want and envy. It is surrounded by an invisible but impregnable wall and a moat full of sharks and crocodiles. Inside, successful artists work in spacious, light-filled studios and dally in sensual pleasures. Outside the wall and the moat, thousands of haggard, hungry, unsuccessful artists have gathered to stare longingly at this unreachable Xanadu. They plead for admission. They scheme, bargain, trade possible passwords and vie with one another to hold their paintings and sculptures up above the throng, hoping against hope that they will be spotted by someone inside and invited in for the big dance.

As a witness to human history, photography has been much questioned over the past three decades. Ever more sophisticated digital techniques of manipulation have only further eroded faith in its trustworthiness as a truth teller. Yet intrepid photojournalists continue to fan out all over the world, uploading images of people, places and events of almost every conceivable kind, from scenes of mundane domesticity in remote locations to recordings of terrifying natural and manmade disaster. What we gain from this flood of visual reportage is a bigger and harder-to-answer question now than it was in the pretelevision, mid-20th-century heyday of Life and other photojournalism magazines. Concentrating on documentary photography, this year's New York Photo Festival offers little by way of new insights, but it does provide an occasion to survey the field and think about what it amounts to.

Copying is bad; originality is good. That's what we learn from toddlerdom on. In art as in life, be yourself. Don't pretend. Nobody likes phonies, fakes or frauds. Forgery is illegal. Authenticity is holy. But wait. Copying and imitating have been the rule for most of the history of human civilization. In the West artists from Raphael to Picasso have profited from copying the works of others. In art there is no such thing as pure originality. [ABSTRACT FROM PUBLISHER]
