Infinite Possibilities offers new perspectives on the phenomenon of seriality in the medium of drawings and the visual arts. It includes drawings from the 1960s to the present by twenty-nine artists from Japan, South America (Columbia), the United States, and Europe (Germany, England, Ireland). Whether looking at serial images in historical, political, mathematical, philosophical, or theoretical perspectives, Infinite Possibilities is a remarkable discourse on a fundamental aspect of contemporary artistic creativity. The artists included range from the emerging to the canonical: William Anastasi, Carl Andre, Stephen Antonakos, Jill Baroff, Jennifer Bartlett, Mel Bochner, Michael Ensminger, Sabine Friesicke, David Hunter, Ralph Iwamoto, Jasper Johns, Ellsworth Kelly, Ellen Keusen, Sol LeWitt, Linda Lynch, Robert Mangold, Stefana McClure, Tatsuo Miyajima, Lienhard von Monkiewitsch, Gloria Ortiz-Hernandez, Laurie Reid, Fred Sandback, Richard Serra, Tony Smith, Sara Sosnowy, Andrew Topolski, Alan Uglow, Lawrence Weiner, and Bill Weiss. Anja Chávez is curator of contemporary art at the Davis Museum and Cultural Center, Wellesley College. The other contributors include David Mickenberg, John J. Curley, Gabrielle Gopinath, Prudence Peiffer, and Nicolas de Warren.… (más)

Citizen of the Galaxy is in this and is one of Heinlein better stories ,it keeps one engrossed and the ending is a pretty satisfying one to its start ( )
  DanJlaf | May 13, 2021 |
Tunnel in the Sky: As a teenager, this was a solid 4-stars; but now only 3.5 stars. A good, inspiring tale of children learning to do, or die.
Time for the Stars: As close to time travel as you can get without getting wonkie. A good adventure story without an especially exciting plot line.
Citizen of the Galaxy: Solid Heinlein…as good a story as it was when I first read it---50+ years ago. These early works are so much better than his last books. ( )

In order by merit:
*Citizen of the Galaxy combines the exotic allure of the underclass in Rudyard Kipling's Kim with the moral heroism of science fiction. A consistently intelligent and interesting tale.
*Tunnel in the Sky is a good story of the building of a civilization out of the raw human materials of modernity, a la Lost or Lord of the Flies.
*Time for the Stars begins well, with a plausible description of the functioning of telepathy, but somehow fails to impress. Perhaps the narrator is less likeable than in the other two stories.
All in all, a good introduction to science fiction, and not a bad reread for adults. ( )

The other two stories are less compelling that Citizen of the Galaxy, which is a compelling read in the typical plot-driven Heinlein style, but like other Heinlein works, touches on societal issues that remain relevant today. Honor, subterfuge, mistaken identity, love, ethics, man's dehumanization of man, and the ability of youth to adapt and to grow. ( )
