was bitten off by an intended
victim reported for treat-
ment at a Bangkok hospital
but fled before he could be
arrested, Thai police said.

Doctors at Mitraharp
Hospital said a silent young
man reported for emergency
treatment Thursday  ac-
companied by his mother,

who did all the talking.

After examining the man’s
mouth, doctors asked how
his tongue had been severed.
His mother replied, “He is a
playboy.”

The man then fled the
hospital with his mother
before police could be
summoned by _ suspicious
hospital staff.

The Sensibilities gallery is

each case presenting objects

that share in common
certain visual qualities.

collectors and craftspeople
over the centuries. In the
imner circle are displays of
contemporary Canadian
craftsmanship, including
many works recently created
by such British Columbian
artists and designers as
Zonda Nellis, Karl Heinz
Suttgen, Wayne Ngan and
Gordon Hutchins.

These inner cases are
designed to visually reflect
the notion that North
American artists today, as
never before possible, can
freely appropriate cultural
and aesthetic qualities from
every land. “Mutlticulturism”
takes on a new meaning as
we now literally have the
world at our fingertips.

assistance of Patti Penrose,

and Daphne Shaw, Museum
Associate. Sensibilities is an
example of a new approach
to museum exhibition, notes
Professor Halpin.
Historically, a museum
would present an exhibition
as a “cultural broadcast”,
designed to reveal to a
passive audience the staffs
knowledge on a particular
subject. Sensibilities, on the
other hand, demands more
of the viewer by stimulating
each individual to recognize
and respond to the sen-
sibilities represented in the
cases.

Museum hours are noon to

Sunday, noon to 9 p.m.
Tuesday (admission free on
Tuesday). The Museum is
closed on Monday.
