Shalkop, Director Overton Park Memphis 12 Tennessee 274-5796 Mar 8, 1963 Mr. Alan Groh Stable Gallery 33 East 74th Street New York 21, New York Dear Mr. Groh: This is to confirm our telephone conversation of today, regarding our annual Art Today exhibition, scheduled for March 30 - April 28 of this year. It is presented each year by our membership organization as a cross section of contemporary American art. It is not a large exhibition, but aims to present the work of artists who have made a significant contribution to the contemporary scene. Each year one or more works are purchased for our permanent collection. It is understood that you will be able to lend a painting by Robert Indiana to the exhibition, even though it will not be for sale. It will be appreciated if you will call me collect early next week with information as to title, medium, dimensions, valuation and date of the painting, so that we can notify the Berkeley Express and Moving Company and begin preparing the catalogue. All expenses attendant upon collecting, packing and shipping will be borne by us of course, and the painting will be insured at your valuation. Thank you for your co-operation. Sincerely, RL Shalkop R.L. Shalkop Director skb [[left margin]] CH 6-3663. [[/left margin]] [[right margin]] 901 [[/right margin]]
