Box 12 New York, 12534 Dear Mr. Artschwager, I am writing on behalf of the Governors of Skowhegan to invite you to be a member of Skowhegan's Faculty during the summer or 2002. We are proposing a three week residency: from June 15, through July 5th, 2002. This residency would involve your making studio visits with two days a week, and giving an informal slide lecture. Resident Faculty Artists are provided with a lakeside cottage, and a private studio, and are welcomed to bring family or guests during their stay. The honorarium is $5,000. The Skowhegan campus has changed a bit since your last visit with us in 1985, but it remains a unique hybrid of artists' residency and school. For the 65 students the interaction with faculty and their peers, stimulates an intense period of growth, and provides a bridge to professional life. There are no formal classes. Students work independently. The 2002 Faculty is still formation but to date it. includes: Geoff Hendricks, Marina Abramovic, Inigo Manglano-Ovalle, and Rob Storr. I am sending some additional information about the Program under separate cover, and will call next week, if I may. In the mean time, thank you for considering this invitation. Please don't hesitate to call if you have any questions. Sincerely, Linda Earle Linda Earle, Executive Director Program On behalf of the Skowhegan School of Painting and Sculpture Board of Governors: Emma Amos Janine Antoni Anne Arnold BOARD OF TRUSTEES Ann L.
