Older buildings bounce from short, sober brick to Victorian Gothic to cast-iron classicism to the domed limestone hulk of the Williamsburgh Savings Bank, which has become an event space called Weylin and sits across from the venerable Peter Luger Steak House on Broadway.

His solos combine elements from traditional ballet classicism (the straight-leg lines of tendus and arabesques) with aspects of break dancing (spectacular ripples passing horizontally down one arm, through his shoulders, and along the other arm) and modern dance (powerful bendings of the torso).

An American based for many years in Germany, where he directed Frankfurt Ballet, he did much to guide ballet into a new era with his extreme take on classicism, paired with stark lighting and, frequently, the bold synthesized sounds of the composer Thom Willems.

The design is a kind of meditation on the symbolic meanings of American classicism and how style functions as a symbol of pride, or a tool of oppression and colonialism, from which modernism, with its transparent glass and technical innovation, promised escape and liberation.

The early gouache, "The Watering Place" (1905-06), and the charcoal drawing "Old Man and Youth" (1906) achieve a tender classicism — Ingres by way of Degas — while the later chalk drawing, "Head of a Woman" (1922), is an intoxicating mix of sculptural rigor and sentimental decadence.

It was an extraordinary break from the idealism and Neo-Classicism that had flourished since the Napoleonic era, and you can see the photographers easing into it by training their lenses on the brilliant details of Gothic architecture and the varied splendors of the French landscape.

The pairing is clearly to show the Balanchine legacy, but the idea is muffled by the dancers' lack of ease with Balanchinian speed and dynamics, and by the tension between Mr. Peck's very American energy and spirit and the more restrained classicism of the Opera dancers.

If we choose to believe that America is a meritocracy where each individual can pave his/her own destiny, then we ignore the long reach of anti-immigrant sentiments and the "-isms" (racism, classicism) that present a more substantial barrier to upward mobility than any border wall.

This gamut covers a lot of ground, too: the winking mannerism of Alfred Hitchcock ("Rope"), the dimensional experimentalism of Gregory Markopoulos ("Twice a Man," with a young Olympia Dukakis), the serene classicism of Vincente Minnelli ("Tea and Sympathy"), the icebox psycho-expressionism of Ingmar Bergman ("Persona").

Nobody can miss how vividly different its stage worlds are: the green romantic medieval French forest of "Emeralds" (music by Fauré); the red Modernist high-energy American urban world of "Rubies" (Stravinsky); the wintry white (both snowscape and palace) grand imperial Russian classicism of "Diamonds" (Tchaikovsky).

"Unlike those American postmodernists who believed that classicism held the key to a usable past, Mr. Isozaki appeared to understand that no amount of historical excavation could uncover a firm foundation on which to build the present," the critic Herbert Muschamp wrote in The Times in 1993.

Later orchestral passages, like "Lonely Town Pas de Deux" and "Imaginary Coney Island" have the soaring lyricism and classicism of symphonies, while some songs nod to operetta (in a way, it must be said, that is more fun and less fussy than in his quasi-operetta "Candide").

This leading period-instrument orchestra delivers classicism in all its glory in this concert, which includes two of Mozart's finest piano concertos led and played by the fortepianist Kristian Bezuidenhout — the No. 224 in G, K. 27, and the No. 230 in E flat, K. 18.

In his new novel, "House of Names," Colm Toibin explores part of this story, from the murder of Iphigenia to the murder of Clytemnestra, making it strike a new chord, far more impressive than the pious respect or worthy aura of "classicism" that often surrounds it.

Danes have made great ballets out of Hans Christian Andersen stories, just as Americans have made ballets about cowboys or sailors on shore leave in New York, but choreographers all over the world have furthered classicism and modernism in directions not so obviously connected to national style.

Vautier's égoïste style of life-as-art work has greatly expanded on the early modernists' drive for all-encompassing, total-art fullness, perhaps to the point where his type of grand, flamboyant gesture has become increasingly obvious as a contributing factor to the global rise of pop zombie classicism.

He used the fact that he and his wife, Kim Kardashian, had to lobby to be recognized by institutions like Vogue or the Hollywood Walk of Fame as an example of why classicism had replaced racism — as if they were new money still fighting old money for respect.

In other words: welcome to the dollhouse, the morgue, the cabinet of curiosities, the surgical amphitheater, the last days of Christ (and the French monarchy); the circus, the sideshow, the travails of Christian martyrs and the Greek Golden Age as resurrected by the Romans, the Renaissance and Neo-Classicism.

Yet, for all its splendors, there was a slightly self-important quality to the performance that kept me a little distant, as if the orchestra was claiming ownership of a work from the glory days of Viennese classicism and showing an American audience how it's played at home.

"In art, as in literature, Evans's discoveries coincided with the rise of modernist movements, such as Art Nouveau, with its rejections of Classicism and embrace of the primitive and exotic," writes co-curator and Curator of Antiquities at the J. Paul Getty Museum Kenneth Lapatin in the catalogue.

Greatly influenced by the European avant-garde and the renewed interest in classicism, many artists associated with this group focused on portraiture, depicting Mexico City's flappers and members of the homosexual community in a celebration of cosmopolitanism that ran counter to the mural painters' disdain for bourgeois individualism.

Admired immensely by the Impressionists, and avidly collected by Degas and Picasso, Corot counts not only as one of the great landscape painters of his time but also as one of art history's pivotal characters, marking as he does the bridge between Claude Lorrain's classicism and the Impressionist's free-form empiricism.

The aesthetic Mr. Sartori created for Berluti was signified by a quirky classicism and built on a high luxury sneaker, so it is now up to Mr. Ackermann — a Colombian-born, African-raised, Paris-based graduate of the Belgian school of fashion with an affinity for leather — to redefine it.

BOUCHARDON: ROYAL ARTIST OF THE ENLIGHTENMENT Developed in partnership with the Louvre in Paris, this exhibition explores the work of Edmé Bouchardon (1698-1762), a sculptor and draftsman best known for his depictions of Louis XV and an instrumental, if overlooked, figure in the shift from Rococo to Neo-Classicism.

Most important to Peck, who is fundamentally devoted to classicism, he felt he had fully absorbed the conventions of musical theater, and now he could remake them for his purposes — which I took to mean taking large, telegraphic, stylized movement and shading it with all the complications of private conversation.

Hugh Honour, a self-taught art historian who produced indispensable works on Neo-Classicism and romanticism and who, with John Fleming, wrote the monumental survey "The Visual Arts: A History," one of the first to pay serious attention to non-Western art, died on May 21977 at his home in Tofori, Italy.

The hall is not only a showcase for the nonprofit institute, which relied on a plaster artisan, an architectural designer and a contractor who donated time and expertise, but it is also the latest effort in the once-fusty institute's push to make classicism relevant today under its new president, Peter Lyden.

An example of "extended tonality" that sounds like something Schönberg might have written had he not been so seduced by serialism, it reflects what Hartmann would have absorbed as a young composer in the last days of Weimar Germany — from the staid Neo-Classicism of Hindemith to the abrasion of Kurt Weill.
|

The objectification and borderline prurience typical of Salle's paintings of women are almost, but not entirely, extinguished here, and the figure on the amber ground — a view from the back of a torso with arms raised — shares a sense of classicism with Jasper Johns's "Skin" drawings, as unlikely as that might seem.
|

It's interesting that Agee brings up not only Schad, but also the German artist's influence on the "all but forgotten" American movement of Magic Realism, calling it "a distant relative of the New Classicism, which had begun with Picasso's 1914 The Painter and His Model," a work that is partially painted and partially drawn.
|

And the connection was true of Proenza Schouler, where the designers Jack McCollough and Lazaro Hernandez cross-fertilized their past signatures (leather halters, peekaboo slicing, asymmetry, collage) with a certain French classicism, so that the basics of old couture — corsets and smoking jackets and intricate handwork — were knocked off their pedestals into the mosh pit.

Here, the focus is toned down and enunciated in such a way as to open a new chapter, a necessary step in Scully's evolution, by which to explore what the painter needed to know about color and linear effect before moving onward, to the stage where his paintings continue to revive the radical domain of errant Classicism today.

While countless chefs in this new-casual age of David Chang, Ignacio Mattos and April Bloomfield have veered from the protocols of white-tablecloth classicism — and even Del Posto's former pastry chef, Brooks Headley, now runs a tiny veggie burger joint called Superiority Burger — Del Posto's new strategy for continued relevance is to double down on fancy.

As the critic Piotr Orlov pointed out in a recent Times article, "Transport" not only represents a link between the two cities — one that may become stronger if Berlin's techno entrepreneurs continue to develop their business interests in Detroit — but the sound of aging and classicism in a genre that has long been about youth and the future.

But it's a point that was underscored in a subtler way at Jil Sander, where Luke and Lucie Meier gracefully balanced pristine monochromatic tailoring and a curvaceous classicism in a silent pantomime of communion between opposites: graceful white and black dresses (pin-tucked, puffed out) and soft power jackets; swaddling dawn-sky knits and yards of swaying silken fringe.

There were other concerns, of course, running through the collections: the pulling down of borders and the lowering of barriers to entry, as the couture welcomed the American ready-to-wear labels Proenza Schouler and Rodarte, who merged their signature conceptual urbanity and twisted prettiness with the discipline of craft and classicism, and were the better for it.

This record's bouncy beats are a kind of decoy: this specific kind of dance-pop redux tends to be a form of classicism, usually practiced by self-determining artists (like Mr. Hynes of Blood Orange or Ramona Gonzalez of Nite Jewel) with idiosyncratic care, which is to say you hear their small flaws and longueurs as part of the overall aesthetic.

This recessiveness is especially apparent in the 4,520-square-foot main house, with its nine-foot-tall sliding wooden barn doors of caramel-colored Brazilian ipe, invulnerable to the elements, and wall-size expanses of glass that fold like accordions to transform the three-bedroom residence into an open-air pavilion, complete with an unadorned colonnade that references clean-lined Greco-Roman classicism.

According to Fredi Casco, the curator and artistic director of the newly opened Texo Foundation, home to a small Asunción gallery built in 220 by Benítez and his partner, Gloria Cabral, 257, the architecture school soon became the program of choice for young artists looking to evade the stultifying classicism of the Higher Institute of Fine Arts, founded in the same year as the architecture program.

For the WOW Festival event, the 75-year-old, who was once affiliated with the Black Panther Party and, under the orders of President Ronald Reagan, was fired from her teaching job at UCLA in 1969 because of her involvement with Communist Party U.S.A., did not shy away from how racism and classicism have affected the perception of who was at the forefront of radical progressive change in this country.

" Fred Valentine, the artist and curator of his eponymous gallery in Ridgewood, offered another over-the-shoulder glance with a series of charcoal portraits from the late 1980s and early '90s in a solo show at Schema Projects; with their mix of classicism, collage, layering, and defacement, these powerful, haunting, deeply felt works hardly seemed 25 years old, demonstrating instead "an urgency that consolidates current strains of thought on content and intentionality, materials and medium.
