Snowwhite and Dwarfs
A plastic Snow-White offers sanctuary to seven dwarves below her majestic cloak. ”At the touch of a button the cranky plastic characters with the jolly pointed caps who are visible on black-and-white monitors connected up to antiquated computers reveal themselves as contemporary personifications of the liberal arts, as the switching points of a universal machinery of art.” These sculptors, painters, musicians, etc. bring to an end whatever task they begin.
