With their show The Female Gaze, organizers at Woman Made Gallery are trying to take the nude out of the realm of “the male gaze.” The show features male and female nudes by 15 artists from ten states working in everything from wood to multimedia. It opens tonight with a free reception from 7 to 10 at the gallery, 4646 N. Rockwell. The show runs through August 30. Call 588-4317 for more.

All but the most devoted conspiracists still believe Lee Harvey Oswald acted alone in his nefarious deed, but a couple of recent books demonstrate that he had some weird dealings with intelligence agencies in both the U.S. and the former USSR. You’ve probably heard about Oswald’s Tale, Norman Mailer’s reconstruction of Oswald’s life in Russia, based on newly opened KGB files. Now here’s John M. Newman, a history and poli sci prof at the University of Maryland who has 20 years of military-intelligence experience under his belt, with his book Oswald and the CIA, which is also based on newly declassified files. Newman will give a free talk about his research at 7:30 this evening at Barnes & Noble, 659 W. Diversey. Call 871-9004 for details.
