AN AGAM HEART
BEATS FOR HADASSAH
A new heart started beating in
the Hadassah-hebrew University
Medical Center. This was not the
result of an artificial heart im-
planted in a human being but an
artistic creation of Yaacov Agam,
the famous sculpture.
Agam's sculpture, "The Beat-
ing Heart Caring for Jerusalem,"
was installed in the middle of a
tranquil pool outside the
Synagogue housing the renowned
Chagall windows.
Agam donated his work to
Hadassah. The cost of casting, in-
stalling and maintaining the
sculpture is a gift from Harry and
Dr. Miriam Freund Rosenthal, a
former National President of
Hadassah.
Speaking at the dedication
ceremony, Agam said; "It is not
easy for me to express myself with
words, my medium is visual. This
Hadassah Hospital is a place
dedicated to keeping the heart of
man beating. In the United
States, I became aware of how the
hearts of the 370,000 members of
Hadassah beat in unison with the
loving heart of this Hospital car-
ing for Jerusalem. I was inspired
by the idea to create my
sculpture."
Making final plans for the Hadassah and Saks Fifth Avenue Fashion
Show, Tues., Feb. 12 at Congregation Shaarey Zedek are committee
members Carrie Kushner, Kathy Sklar, Elaine Sturman and Helen
Koenig (not present Joan Provizer).
