OF H-BOMB

By VICTOR DABBY

Press

Photographer Robert Del
Tredici says his “chromo-
somes started vibrating”
when Ronald Reagan and
Mikhail Gorbachev signed
the treaty calling for the
destruction of some 2,700
intermediate nuclear
missiles.

Del Tredici had good rea-
son be be excited, having
spent the last six years snap-
ping pictures of the 13 plants
that manufacture nuclear
bombs in the United States.

It wasn't just an oddball
pastime.

The project “began the day
it dawned on me I'd never
seen an H-bomb factory,” he
writes in the preface to his
book of unugual photographs
called At Work in the Fields
of the Bomb (Douglas Me-
Intyre).

“I knew that nuclear wea-
pons didn't grow on trees,
but I couldn't tell you how
they did grow. I soon learned
that there are 13 plants
across America mass-pro-
ducing materials and parts
for the Bomb's explosive
warhead — a vast assembly
line of factories with a single
final assembly point in
Texas.”

The 49-year-old Del Tred-
ici, who teaches photography
at Montreal's Vanier College,
also found out that these
plants had public relations
officers who handled media
requests and they were more
than willing to show him
around the plants’ unclassi-
fied areas.

WHO'S IN CHARGE?

“I always thought that
Darth Vader was the guy in
charge of these factories and
there was no access,” he said
in an interview. “But I
learned that the U.S. bomb
factory system prides itself
on being democratic.

“The public relations types
kept telling me, ‘We're not in
the Soviet Union and, we'll
consider all legitimate media
requests.’ ”

As well, he discovered that

stallations was accessible to
civilians.

“That meant that at 2,000
feet I could legally photo-
graph the H-bomb factories
through the open window o'
rented single-engine plane.”

Armed with that know:
lege, Del ‘Tredici criss
erossed the United States to
visit the facilities, taking pic-
tures wherever he could
while interviewing the
people whose work was to
manufacture instruments of
mass death.

LACKS DOOM

As author Jonathan Schell
(The Fate of the Earth) notes
in the introduction to the
book, the one element miss
ing from Del Tredici's stark
photographs is the “spectacle
of doom.”

Instead of drama, one is
struck by the blandness of it
all or the casualness with
which people viewed their
work.

The interview with the

CANTATA.

public officer of a
weapons installation near
Amarillo, Texas, is typical.

As he sees it, the nuclear
peril is “the biggest non-issue
of the 20th century” and
handling weapons is “just
like pickin’ up a box of Silly
Putty in a dime store.”

Or, take the two young
soldiers whose job is to
launch Minutemen missiles in
the event of nuclear war. In
the photograph, they look
poised and ready for action:
in reality, they're just a pair
of uncertain guys.

Asked what they would do
after sending off their mis
siles, their confidence evap-
orates: “Well, um — then we
have other, uh, procedures to
go through

basically until we're told not
to be.”

Del Tredici says it took
three years until his collec-
tion of photographs and
interviews started to. take
shape-as,.a ‘book, which he
emphasizes’ he‘did not want
“to be just another anti.
nuclear tome.”

“I played down the dia
leectic of good and bad. I
wanted to do something that
no one else had done. It sort
of felt like walking up to
people and saying, ‘Psst, you
wanna see some pictures of
bomb factories?’

“I want to trigger peoples’
curiosity, not indignation.”

Makowicz records Gershwin

By MARY CAMPBELL
As Pre

ess
In 1987, 50 years after
George Gershwin'’s death,
jazz pianist Adam Makowicz
has made an album of Ger-
shwin music. He deliberately
made it different from other
pianists’ Gershwin albums.
Makowicz says, “What
important to me in music
that you create your own
vision of popular songs. Some
people say you should play a
song like it was designed by
the composer. I say you
should change, because that's
what jazz is al about. I
believe for most listeners it’s

exciting to hear old songs in a
different way.”

The title song of Makowicz's
Naughty Baby, on Novus, an
RCA label, was in a recently
discovered archive of Ger-
shwin music. Makowicz
wanted to include something
that hadn't been recorded
often and Naughty Baby in-
terested him.

He'd never played Maybe
or They All Laughed before
arranging them and record.
ing them last summer. “Now
I'm playing them regularly in
nightclubs and people like
them very much,” he says.

The album's longest cut is

Cable

10 TV

a six-minute Rhapsody Blue.

Makowicz says, “I_ used
some themes from Rhapsody
in Blue, I play Rhapsody in
Blue with some symphones in
the U.S. and Europe. I do it
the way it was written. WE
have a score. You cannot do
anything else.”

Makowicz was born in
Czechoslovakia of Polish par-
ents. His name is pronounced
MAC-oh-vitch, but he isn't
particular how it’s pro
nounced. He shortened it
from Matyszkowiez.

Before he was brought to
New York by the legendary
talent discoverer John Ham
mond in 1977, he had made 26
recordings. He has recorded
on several labels in the
United Stat

“This one, so far, is my
favorite record,” Makowicz
says, referring to Naughty
Baby. Makowiez recorded
with bassists Dave Holland
and Charlie Haden and drum-
mer Al Foster.

A year ago, Makowicz re-
corded his first album for
Novus, Moonray, a collection
of standards.

He had an idea to record
with a string quartet, Mako-
wicz says.

“Twas trying to find
common ground for classical
and jazz musicians. I com.
posed some material classical
musicians are able to play
and improvise. RCA didn't
want to take a risk with these

unknown things. I hope to do
it someday.” = “9 .
