Just tell me what number I should reach.Not sure what got lost in translation here: never had the intention to go to any art fair or art show oranything of the kind.All the artists we have in mind or send to you are people we have direct connections with. Not just theirstudio, but also their home. They are people the work of whom we follow, and many of them are alreadyfriendly (Arianna, Cali have had dinner or stayed home).The idea is absolutely to have an impact on the ecosystem and to make a difference by supporting greatartists when they need it.Galleries references are important, because galleries allow artist to reach a broader audience. We would godirectly to the source.This is why it's important for me to go to LA or Berlin (or elsewhere) because those artists are not rich yet,they dont travel so much. They belong to a scene, and it does make a big difference to them if you connectin person.The spirit is to have an impact on young, talented folks, and absolutely to stay at the source.Once again, not sure was drifted away from this in communicationEDe : jeffrey E. <jeevacation@gmail.com>Envoye : vendredi 10 fevrier 2017 12:32A: Etienne BinantCc: Darren IndykeObjet: Re: updategoing to artists studio s much more appropriate , i thinkOn Thu, Feb 9, 2017 at 9:49 PM, Etienne Binant < wrote:HOUSE OVERSIGHT 032468GentlemenI hope you are having a great week.In LA hoping to begin acquiring pieces: are we on?If not yet, when pleasethanksplease noteThe information contained in this communication isconfidential, may be attorney-client privileged, mayconstitute inside information, and is intended only forthe use of the addressee.
