Dear Mister Castelli,

Mr. Landshoff-Gribbohm, Amsterdam, has already often tried to install contacts between Mr. Rauschenberg and the DuMont Gallery, Cologne. Since the foundation of the gallery I work there as selling direktor.

Together with Mr. Buchloch I took over the literary magazine " X-YPHOS " which publishes young, well known authors.

Each number presents one authors, so that the revue has monographical character. In accordance the revue contens some pages of blck and white graphic arts of one painter in each number, in addition a hand - signed drawing of the artist in an issue of 90. Biographical notes, photos (atelier- and situationphotos of the artist) and reviews are added.

The magazine is represented by well known galleries in Western-Germany, Austria and Switzerland.

I am very much interested in the works of Rauschenberg and we are disposed to bring graphik arts of Rauschenberg in one of the next numbers.

Have you appropriate drawings or something like that and could you please inform Mr. Rauschenberg and please give us his address?

I count on yours interest and hope to see you next year when I shall visit the United States.

Yours very sincerely
Udu Thiemonds
