Jerzy Kosinski

Continued from preceding page

in that cottage at Albion.
I've heard of all his faults —
the lies, the craziness, the
paranoia — but none of this
means anything in view of
his extraordinary talent.
And that is what I re-
member.
"This story is not a tribute
to death," Mr. Kosinski

wrote in "Death in Cannes."
"Like birth, death is final;
that's quite a tribute al-
ready. This story pays.
tribute to life."

So I, too, pay tribute to the
mysterious life that was Jer-
zy Kosinski's. Farewell, my
dear boy! ❑

T

he pressure is on for
museum gallery direc-
tor Sharon Zimmer-
man. She has less than two
months to fill 7,200-square-
feet of gallery space at the
new Janice Charach Epstein
Museum Gallery at the
Maple-Drake Jewish Com-
munity Center.
The three-story art wing,
which was made possible
through a $1 million en-
dowment from Manny and
Natalie Charach, is expected
to open July 24. It will hold
the museum's first schedul-
ed exhibit — "The Jewish
Collectors' Experience."
"We thought it would be
interesting to focus on local
Jewish collectors and their
art collections," Ms. Zimme-
rman said. "We're inter-
ested in showcasing the
work of Jewish artists, but
we're not demanding the art
have Jewish themes."
The wing, which is under
construction near the exec-
utive offices on the east side
of the lobby, facing Drake
Road, will be a showcase for
traveling Jewish art ex-
hibits.
A future exhibition, for
example, will feature a fine
arts and crafts exhibit for
Chanukah. The museum
will also present cultural
and historical exhibits.
Ms. Zimmerman said she
wasn't surprised that most

of the Jewish collectors she
spoke to said they don't
deliberately collect art by
Jewish artists.
"I've always collected
what I like," said Jane
Solomon of Huntington
Woods, who has loaned some
of her extensive contem-
porary art collection to other
Detroit art shows.
Ms. Zimmerman said that
most of the collectors she
deals with approach art in a
very personal way.
"Most collectors I meet are
very emotional about their
collections and have, over
the years, developed a per-
sonal relationship with the
artists," said Ms. Zimmer-
man.
Susan Farbman, an editor
at Detroit Monthly, said her
Huntington Woods home is
filled with pieces she and her
husband have collected since
their honeymoon. She is len-
ding some of her collection to
the museum's first opening.
Hope Palmer, who lectures
at the Detroit Institute of
Arts and at Henry Ford and
Oakland County community
colleges, said the JCC's mu-
seum gallery will enable a
lot of people to see art
without actually having to
travel great distances.
"The JCC is more than a
place for physical activity,"
Ms. Palmer said. "It's also a
cultural center and the
perfect setting for education.
The gallery will have a built-
in audience."
