I am grateful to Chicago because it has renewed my enthusiasm and love for America. I am able to relate with people, all of you, easier here. That is the reason that I feel like talking to you tonight about my more intimate experiences of art and life, particularly the years from 1969-1976. By speaking with you today I hope that I will clarify all this.

I have several thoughts and questions to ask and I hope that I will not be misinterpreted. I very sincerely believe that they are objective.

My questions are about the appearances of the following enlisted movements in the New York art scene and of the role of my work. I mean my Times Square image and also other inspiring thoughts that I've had which I will mention later. I enlist the art movements:

POP ART,
Refering to the fast making of of POP [[strikethrough]] making fast [[/strikethrough]] movement by using union employee from art craft straus (acknoledged AMERICAN ARTIST) PAINT TODAY AND ALSO "In a way it is a great pity that we do not have a portrait of Vivien Leigh, in the actors series."
Slides will be projected later to illustrate this point.
REF. DAVID HAYES —

LIGHT MOVEMENT AND DIRECT CONCEPTUALISM,
Meaning when I work from a macquette I am willing to experiment further (works in a progress presently). Also, I have questions of certain phases or aspects of minimalism regarding my work, and other sculpture projects placed in New York.streets or large and smaller size sculptures and paintings that were exhibited under different names of artists in New York museums (Guggenheim and Whitney) and prestegious other New York galleries. These I relate to my own works such as the "Arrow Homage to Times Square" my cycladic books and other of my works. Slides of these works that I am referring to, I hope to obtain from the above mentioned museums and New York galleries as I would like to, at a future day to make a projection of these slides, that I feel derive from my works. (Ref: "Chryssa" Guggenheim exhibit, 1961.)

Transcription Notes:
I am unsure about some of the annotations under the POP ART section
