Alex Katz Recent Paintings
Upper Gallery Standing somewhere between Edward Hopper and Eric Fischl, W ed 18 July the billboard sized paintings of Alex Katz evoke a Madison - Sun 2 Sept Avenue world of dry martinis and little black cocktail dresses, cool Manhattan avenues peopled by men in 'stay press' suits and women with all the squeaky clean eroticism of Doris Day. His is an American utopia situated somewhere on the back porch of a house in the Catskills where figures gaze into an endless middle distance that is sunny, calm and static.
A central figure is Kalz's wife, Ada. As the focus of his work has moved ever closer, she now appears in giant fragments, her lips or her eyes barely contained by the frame of the painting. His landscapes are equally abstracted.No ripples disturb the surface of Katz's lakes, no leaves stir - only the colour of the paint vibrates.
Katz marries an American comedy of mores and manners with a startling formal display of colour and form lhal equals Matisse. His unassuming portraits or pastoral scenes of backwoods America are heroic in their modesty, poised between describing emotional and social states, and creating exquisite abstractions.
Born in Brooklyn in 1927, Alex Katz lives and works in N ew York. His work has been celebrated by museums in America and Europe yet has rarely been seen in Britain. This exhibition shows a selection o f new paintings, and has been made with the support of the Emilio M azzoli and Julia Ernst Galleries. Cildo Meireles

Opening with a car auction among the hum of engines, Sex, Drink, Fast Cars confronts our obsession with the motor car, as fashion accessory, as religion, as sexual arena. The twitching of the auction bidders evolves into dance as the chant of the auctioneer becomes the soundtrack....
G oing Down O n Jesus presents an ironic vision of Christ as the ultimate fashion and lifestyle accessory of the 1990s. Prepare to meet the New, Improved, Family-Sized, Environmentally-Friendly Creator of the Universe... He’s going upmarket. He’s going natural. The Babe of Bethlehem has become a born-again communicator. Peter Zegveld (Netherlands) Situations An ICA co-production

Zegveld's work has its own absurd logic where conventions and normality are turned on their heads and where objects take on a strange life of their own.

Situations premiered at The Hague in M a y 1990 and is a co production between Het Gebeuren, Festival Theater aan de W erf and the ICA.

In many ways our own activities hare mirrored the situation and urgent needs of the peoples of these three countries who have suffered so much and so long. This year we are appealing to you to help the people of Kampuchea, and especially the children, who have survived 'a period of misery unequalled in the history of mankind*. The words are those of Dr. My Samedv. Secretary-General of the Kampuchean Red Cross and Director of the Medical Faculty, the only professor from Pnom Penh University to survive the holocaust. His personal ccount given at a recent Congress of Medical and Relief Organisations in Amsterdam filled in the details of the horrifying picture of life under the Pol Pot regime given by John Pilger in his articles in the 'Daily Mirror' and in his now famous film 'The Tear Zero'. The response of the British people, and above all the children who raised more than the government it self in response to the Blue Peter Appeal, has been truly magnificent. There is no longer starvation but the effects of malnutrition will continue for many years and almost everything has been destroyed - hospitals, medical supplies and equipment, schools, homes and per haps a third or half of the whole population were killed or died of starvation. Vietnam itself still on rations below war-time levels, has done everything it could to help. It has given food, shelter and medical care to 320,000 refu gees from Kampuchea over the years, and is even now ’sharing its bowl of rice with its friends', with the Kampuchean people. In expressing our warmest thanks to all of you who are taking part in this exhibition, we are asking your help for the people of Kampuchea. We have already 3ent five consignments of anti-biotics and vitamins by air. Now we are aiming to send six ambulances to help solve the problems of transporting patients and medical supplies for the hard-pressed Ministry of Health. Dr. My Samedy has already expressed his grate ful thanks to all those who are helping his shattered country. Joan K.

With the generous co-operation of the Round House Management, Medical and Scientific Aid for Viet Nam, Laos and Kampuchea is holding this year's Art Exhibition in the delightful Round House Gallery. We hope this will enable the greatest possible number of our friends and supporters to take part, and to renew their support for the hard-pressed people of Viet Nam. 'Viet Nam today stands among the poorest and least economically developed nations in the world' writes Prof. Arthur H. Westing, of Hampshire College, Massachusetts, in the Stockholm International Peace Research Institute's 1982 Yearbook. He refers to the 'massive damage to field and forest', and in particular to the mangrove forests, 'the anti-plant chemical warfare agents left this area vir tually lifeless'. He stresses that 'the marine and inland fishery resources of Viet Nam provide an important source of protein-rich food', but he estimates that 'roughly one third of Viet Nam's total mangrove habitat has been lost for perhaps half a century or more.' In this situation the economic blockade, and in particular the Food and Milk Bans imposed by the USA, China and the EEC since 1979 are contributing to serious malnutrition in Viet Nam. There are now more than two million children between the ages of one and six, who can be given no milk since the little that is available is reserved for babies under one year and patients in hospital. 'Viet Nam is thus, for the time being, dependent upon foreign assistance' and MSAVLK is playing its part in co-operation with many other organisations and individuals in seeking the lifting of the bans and the restoration of Food Aid to those who have already suffered so long and so much. We are also deeply concerned at the serious shortages of all medical supplies and medicines in every part of the country, which is holding back the efforts of the Vietnamese people to heal the wounds of war and to ensure the health and happiness of the new generation. Our grateful thanks go to all those who are helping us to raise the necessary funds for Medical Aid. Joan K. McMichael M B., Ch.B.

MEDICAL AID FOR VIETNAM Medical A id Committee fo r Vietnam P.O. Box No: 100 36 W ellington St, London W.C.2 01-836 1350 Registered C harity No. 252906 Supporters of the Medical Aid Committee for Vietnam may well be asking "Why should so much effort be put into raising funds for a British Hospital in Vietnam - especially when we are threatened with the closure of some of our own hospitals?" Those of us who, like Mr. Leslie Kirkley, Chairman of the British Hospital Committee for Vietnam, Mr. John Pilger of the Mirror, and others, have seen for ourselves the enormous devastation in Vietnam, have often answered this question from our own experience. But now the World Health Assembly, perhaps the highest health authority there is, meeting in Geneva in May 1976, has called for the "imnediate, effective and large-scale assistance required for the reconstruc tion of the health services" in Vietnam. In response to this Appeal to the United Nations, the World Health Organisation prepared a report on conditions in Vietnam, with proposals to meet the most urgent needs, and estimates of the costs. "Following the massive destruction of health facilities in the war, and the crucial shortage of equipment ..." it proposes the build ing of a number of district hospitals and commu nity health centres with emergency beds. It makes the point that "the health service system, with its very competent man-power will certainly be able to absorb and make optimum use of foreign assistance." The proposal for a British district hospital of 200 beds, in the province of Ha Tinh, where all eight district hospitals and the provincial hospital of 500 beds were totally destroyed in the bombing, is thus "fully in line with the programme of the World Health Organisation and has its com plete support." Members of the Medical Aid Committee have visited the temporary mud and thatch district hospital of Ky Anh, which it is hoped to replace by the British hospital as rapidly as possible. The very competent young staff whom we met are coping with the enormous backlog of sickness and casualties in the most primitive conditions, and the minimum of equipment. They are, naturally, waiting in eager anticipation of the day when they can treat their patients in a well-designed and equipped prefabricated British Hospital, a practical contribution from the British people to the reconstruction of a country that has suffered so heavily over so many years. In expressing our warmest gratitude to all of you who are taking part in this Tenth Annual Art Exhibition to help the Medical Aid Committee meet its target of £30,000 for the Maternity Unit of the British Hospital, we know we are also expressing the gratitude - and the hopes - of the Vietnamese people.

But life in England creates new and powerful demands - passion conflicts with taboo, and love turns into betrayal. As the fortunes of Alfredo's and Leonora's families are traced from the 1920's to the present day in Anthony Minghella's new play, the established conventions of Latin life are progressively upset - often humourously, finally tragically - by new generations in an alien environment.
