    Apair of concertswith virtuosoperformers and

    a fond farewell highlightthis weekends openingof the Norfolk Chamber

    Music Festival in Norfolk,CT.

    The farewell is to theTokyo String Quartet,ending its remarkable44-year run with a specialbenefit concert to restoreNorfolks Shed, its perfor-mance space. After its two

    longest-serving members violist Kazuhide Isomu-ra, a founding member in1969, and second violinist

    Kikuei Ikeda, who joinedin 1974 announcedtheir retirement, thegroup decided to disband.

    In an interview withWGBH in Boston, Iso-

    mura said that in the earlydays critics sometimescalled the quartets play-ing mechanical, likeningthem, in an obvious bit ofracial profiling, to Toyo-tas or Hondas. Listeningto one of the ensemblesmore than 30 recordings,

    one hears anything butmechanical.

    What a difference venues make. Two artshows now hanging in Sharon prove thepoint.

    Robert Pittengers paintings at the Sharon Histori-cal Society need space and distance between themand the viewer of these difficult works. Up closehis rough undersurfaces, rolled on thickly, look likestucco; and his trees, houses and land can seemamateurish. But move back, look from farther away,

    and the best paintings come together in a rigorouswhole.

    Pittenger has been painting for many years; hisGreen Trees was made in 1972. From the begin-ning he has been obsessed with time and space, withrepetition and crowding in his landscapes, and withtrees.

    Nothing in the paintings is from life or plein air.

    Everything springs from the artists imagination.I look at trees. But I dont look at them while I am painting. Its not

    what a tree looks like but what painting a tree looks like, he has said. And

    certainly his trees look more surreal than real, more like objects crowdedtogether between austere yet elegant Italian villas (really big suburbanhomes) with shapes like Monopoly pieces.

    Pittengers work can make you reconsider what trees look like, how alandscape is a mixture of forms and light. There is an ephemeral, almostdreamy quality to many pieces. The landscapes owe homage to NicholasPoussin with their classical allusions, arrangements of forms and their hazycolors. Bright and olive, even gray greens render trees dusty.

    The three newest pictures, Our Pond and Sous-bois I and II, French

    for undergrowth, are darker, tangled, hidden from the light. They wouldshow better in a larger space, too.

    At the Sharon Hotchkiss Library, John Frederick Walker is exhibiting24 pieces throughout the building. The show does not have the impact ofhis smaller, better edited show at Kents Ober Gallery last year. There, allthe works were hung together in the relatively small gallery at eye level soviewers could move from one work to another then back again.

    Walker, of course, is a collector and alterer of old books. Most often hetears out pages leaving torn remnants, or discards pages altogether andworks with the bindings or glues pages together and then cuts spaces intheir centers to display an illustration. Flayed Man shows drawings in ananatomy textbook.

    On the landing between floors are some small books impaled with mean-looking screws. There are three old Baedeker travel guides, Italian andSwiss, altered and resting together in a single frame. And among works onthe second floor is Truncated, showing lovely endpapers with a repeti-tive, feathery, flame design in faded colors with a hint of gold.

    Robert Pittenger 40 Years of Painting continues at the Sharon Historical

    Society, 18 Main Street, through July 5. The exhibition is open Wednesday andSaturday, 10 a.m. to 2 p.m.; Thursday and Friday, 10 a.m. to 4 p.m. Call860-364-5688 or go to www.sharonhist.org.

    L

    ured by ubiquitoustrailers showing

    masses of peoplemoved by some unseenforce, scenes of mayhemand destruction, and BradPitts crystal eyes, I de-cided to check out WorldWar Z.

    Heres what I got: zom-bies.

    Now then, Ive goneand said it. Perhaps Ivespoiled it for you. Orperhaps Im the only idioton the planet who didntknow what the Z stoodfor when I walked into thetheater.

    But it hardly matters,because after maybe 10

    minutes of good old-fashioned fright moviebuild-up, the movie blowsits cover. Freshly-killedbodies writhe and makeunpleasant noises, getbloodshot eyes and sicklyskin, clack their teeth andgo looking for someone

    else to chomp on.Is there such a thing as

    an undead origin story?In this case, zombism isa viral condition: Con-tagion meets Dawn ofthe Dead. As if theres aliving soul, or undead one,who cares.

    Pitt plays some sortof UN operative calledout of retirement to helpsolve the problem of whatcauses the plague, whichin no time flat has laidwaste to half the citiesof the world, and how tostop it.

    Conveniently, becausehe is apparently the onlycitizen of earth who cando it, the entire militaryestablishment expendsits total effort on rescu-ing Pitt and his epicallybland family. Everyoneelse might just as well bechopped liver.

    Theres really not muchelse to report, so Ill cut tothe chase. World War Zis a ludicrously bad movie.Try making sense of oneplot point or detail. I did,

    and got fried brains.Heres a good one:

    When we see Pitt beingflown into Jerusalem tofind out why Israel hasbeen successful in seal-ing off zombies, and againwhile barely escaping thepredictable invasion, the

    runways and taxiways arehumming with airliners asif its, oh, just an ordinaryday at the airport.

    Huh? Where are allthese people flying to?Are they being airdroppedinto war zones to feed theenemy?

    Heres another: Bombsand explosions, includingone that looks like a smallnuke, happen with alarm-ing regularity. Have thesuddenly undead stock-piled a small arsenal?

    When Pitt finally doesfigure out a solution,

    which involves somepretty bad germs, he findsthem in a biohazard suitethat looks for all the worldlike a china shop.

    I could have walkedout there, and ended thisreview, save for one lastthing. How much badjudgment, if not bad taste,does it take to use Israel asthe example of a countrythat walls out the menac-ing other, but cant hold itback forever?

    Thats not the only

    place World War Zgoes way over the line. Awould-be test zombie ina glass cage somewherein Wales happens to bea dark-skinned African-looking woman withdreadlocks, viciouslygnawing at the wall. Oh,

    moviemakers, what areyou trying to tell us?

    Only they know theanswer.

    World War Z is ratedPG-13 for intense, frighten-ing zombie sequences, vio-lence and disturbing images.

    Additional viewer warnings:Heroic limb-cutting a la127 Hours!David Mr.Potato Head Morse in acameo channeling HannibalLecter!

    It is playing at the Mov-iehouse in Millerton andelsewhere.
