Review of three screenings at the Kitchen. Theatre artist Robert Wilson's second experiment with broadcast television, Video 50, consists of multilingual playlets that explore the gap between reality and photographs in esoteric bursts. Ishmael Reed's uniformly black soap opera falls somewhere between video art and broadcast television, but fails to create a convincing picture of black life because of its flat characters. The fourth annual collection of image-processed art at the Kitchen predictably continued to emphasise colour, but favoured hard geometric shapes over the softer forms of other years. Memory, loss, female beauty and the body as well as pop culture pastiche are themes within the collection.
