Clem dear - This is a great show. Want to see it again with you when it comes to the Met in the fall - "Treasures of Ancient Nigeria". (IFE heads come off the best, then Owo; but all of it beautiful.) Guston show at S.F. Mus. as expected (only '50-'55 holds up). Weather's been cloudless, clear sunny balmy for days. Yesterday a jaunt to Sausalito & today I'm going to visit Garner Tulles' graphics workshop (where Ken & Freidl have worked). Look forward to Napa landscape & vino drive next wk. Symposium went well for me - but I ain't no Jungian! Nice out here but too cultist. Wish you were here. See you in June. Love x Helen  Frankenthaler
